Joanne
Jo's home in East Town was perfectly located to enjoy the Best of Grand Rapids. But Squeak was the highlight, a little calico with a fun personality! She liked to be wherever I was and gave me so much comfort. I recommend this housesit for many reasons besides the comfort of Jo's home and Squeak's companionship. Stay here to enjoy Grand Rapid's art and music life, great restaurants and shopping, to explore the hiking trails around town and the beaches on Lake Michigan. Thanks Jo!

Mary
I loved being at this sit ...Mary and Michael were very welcoming and Dunstan the dog is a delight! Lots of lovely dog walks from the house and very friendly people in the village. The location is so quiet, a village with no street lights and wonderful night skies when the weather was clear... and an owl(s)!  If I have the opportunity I wouldn't hesitate to go back.. Thank you Mary and Michael!

We had a lovely time looking after Basil and Eliza for Alice and Jo. The bunnies were a delight and so sweet and very happy everyday, especially when we gave them food.
Alice and Jo were extremely accommodating and welcoming. They made sure we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend this stay to others.
Thanks for having us!

Rahni & Tony
I loved this catsitting! Rahni and Tony are beautiful and kind people and from the beginning there was very good communication with them. The house is very cozy, clean and comfortable, overlooking a park that makes you feel closer to nature. The location is excellent, very close to quiet beaches and a small but interesting town. The cats, Fodey and Rue are lovely, Fodey loves to caress his face with yours and He always follows you wherever you go. Rue is a bit shy, and She can be scared easily with loud noises, but if you treat her very soft, she will be your faithful companion at bedtime or while watching a movie, She is a very sweet companion. I am so grateful for having been part of this experience. Muchísimas Gracias!!

Tahni
Tahni and her mother, Leanne, have been exceptionally kind and accommodating, creating a relaxed and zen atmosphere for my pet sitting experience in one of Australia's most beautiful locations, near the Mossman Gorges. The house is confortable and the terrasse is so beautiful and a great place for morning yoga or lunch and breakfast among tropical plants . Sienna and Ludo, the cats, are utterly adorable, each with their unique personalities. Sienna is playful and a bit naughty, with a sweet temperament that's amusing to observe. She enjoys cuddles at night and values her independence during the day, cherishing her alone time. Ludo, on the other hand, occasionally seeks cuddles at night or early in the morning and appreciates affection throughout the day. Both are indoor cats, but they've been allowed outside while I'm here, staying nearby and responding well when called back in the late afternoon. The chickens are delightful too, laying one or two eggs daily, and some enjoying being petted. The plants and the garden is beautiful with papaya , tomato , mangoes, mints, dragon fruit around and much more . SO beautiful and inspiring to see this garden around.

Moby & MeeMee are beautiful cats, that were a treasure to be with.  They are very self sufficient, and easy to care for.  MeeMee is quite affectionate, and Moby brings home a present every night.  

Our hosts’ home, is a stunning, yet comfortable, centrally located historic house.  It is well appointed, beautifully decorated by the in house artist,made our stay memorable.

We would strongly recommend this home to any prospective house sitter.
