I chose Nicole to sit for my animals for a second time, after being blown away by her care and attention the first time. She's clearly an animal lover, and she communicated with me super well during my trip. I got pictures of my beloved animals, and she asked questions about caring for my home, pool, and hot tub. Nicole pays a great deal of attention to detail. During the worrisome pandemic, she cleaned everything and helped me to be confident in her attention to detail, her love of animals, and her loving personality. I couldn't ask any more from a house and pet sitter. I hope to ask her back again if our schedules allow!
This was one of my best sits, I greatly enjoyed it! Justin was very friendly and communicative since our first call. I was given clear instructions about the sit before I arrived and everything went smooth as it had been well organised. I found a beautiful, clean, and comfortable flat with an amazing resident kitty, Jolie. Jolie is a treasure, she’s just amazing as she is smart, curious, inquisitive, and loving all mixed together. It’s so easy to make new bonds with her as she really enjoys human interaction. I think we adjusted to each other in a very short time, which is quite unusual. At this point you might have guessed she’s a Bengal cat, so expect all the characteristics of the breed but blended with a great ability to adapt to her human companions. We even ventured outdoor for a few walks in the streets around the flat. Jolie is used to wear a harness and to walk on a leash. I was at first a bit concerned about this but soon I learned it was feasible and Jolie greatly enjoyed it. The area where she lives is extremely quiet, with infrequent cars passing by, but of course I had to be careful and watch out for possible troubles. Dogs however were not such a big issue but other kitties indeed were so. She really does not like to meet other cats (by the way there is one in the basement flat) and you have to walk her away when one of such encounters happen, otherwise she can get very upset! At home of course she wanted to play and liked to run up and down the stairs which was good for her to release some energy. Play sessions have to be alternated with cuddle sessions as she greatly enjoys belly rubs and kisses, and asks for them. Being very active Jolie does not sleep that much but she was mostly quiet at night (except on one occasion). The flat is well decorated, equipped with everything you might need for a lovely stay, including a wonderful expresso coffee machine which Justin kindly allowed me to use. I liked to look out at the trees from the living room windows as the scenery was relaxing to me. Justin kept always in touch and responded to all enquires which was highly appreciated. All in all a great sit to which I would love to return, highly recommended! I am grateful to Justin for the trust and for having chosen me as a sitter for Jolie, thank you so much!
Staying with all of these beautiful cats for a month was amazing!! First off, the town is incredible, super close to the beach and not too far from Hollywood. The cats were all super friendly and cuddly, they love their attention haha! For the long stay it is super Important to keep up with the cleaning otherwise it will get messy, but other than that we had no issues! Honestly sad to leave all the kitties
El Molino is a beautiful house in a stunning environment wich makes you feel relaxed. The cats, ducks and hens was easy to take care of. And I loved having fresh eggs every day. Kimberley the house manager was fantastic, supporting with the care of the estate. Thank you Nick and Kimberley for this magical stay!
What an incredible couple to sit for ( oh, and David and Abby are lovely too 😉). We were very warmly welcomed by David and Abby. They were very patient and understanding, mindful that it was our first sit and thus nervous. Their home is beautiful and the setting is exquisite. Ginny and Effra were an absolute dream to look after. Ginny is affectionate, fun and very well behaved. Effra took to Pete and came for cuddles, much to the owners' surprise. There are great walks to take Ginny on, and we got to hang out with Effra while enjoying the outside area. It was an absolute pleasure looking after Ginny and Effra and are grateful to have been able to sit. We look forward to (hopefully) coming back. Thank you for a memorable stay!
Carol is a cool person and also a good conversationalist. I enjoyed speaking to her briefly the night before she left for her trip. Her home is neat, airy and cozy. Lola aka Poopie is a character, She is playful and sweet. The dog species doesn't have anything over Poopie(cat)species. Lola likes to talk and we did. I especially enjoyed talking to Poopie over a cup of tea in the morning hours out in the courtyard. After entertaining her with the red-yarn and having her chase was calming for me, Lola truly enjoys it. I was happy when I passed the trust test and Lola allowed me to give her nice back rubs and talk to me to let me know I was doing a good job. She is a very special cat. She is easy to clean after, just scoop and bag and throw away. Poopie definitely will let you know when she wants to socialize(talk), play, sleep or be left alone. During those leave me alone times-(which were many-where Lola had to remind me I am a special Cat-but leave me alone lady!!!) I was able to work and finish writing projects and participate in the Segway Tour of Charlotte, which I loved. Location: I truly enjoyed the walkable trail within the complex and near the surrounding apartments. It is a quiet neighborhood and I felt very safe walking. It was a overall great experience meeting Carol and (HS) with Poopie. I wish them all the best
Jim and Jill made us very welcome at their lovely comfortable cottage in the Highlands. All information we needed to ensure their feathered friends were safe was given. We had a wonderful adventurous time in the teeth of the Beast from the East, hen houses dug out of the snow each morning and food and water kept unfrozen we might have been overgenerous with the food for the wild bids - they were ravenous! Much recommended sit
