Rachel
It was a great stay. Kobe is the sweetest dog in Chicago; he will be by your side, filling you with love, kisses, and being your companion for exploration and adventures... I already miss him. Rachel's apartment is beautiful, the building has a pool and gym. It is located in a strategic place to explore Chicago and very easy to reach downtown. Rachel was very special and kind to me, she left me a book about Chicago and always stayed in touch. As Kobe's mom, I admire her a lot. Kobe has multiple beds, leashes, treats, and delicious soft food, and it's evident that she does everything to give him the best. It's wonderful to meet people like her. Highly recommended!

Lovely first sit.  Nibbles warmed to us and was no problem to care for.  Cassie was a lovely and informative host.

Andrea
Unfortunately, we would not house sit for Andrea again, nor would we recommend that others do unless they are fully aware of Andrea's expectations of them.

Mike is wonderful, as is the apartment but you might find it though to meet the high expectations. There was an initial red flag when we went to pick up the key from Andrea and before leaving we were accused of having lost the key despite it never being handed over. 

The other issues came after the house sit when we checked Andrea's review of us on Trusted Housesitters and were surprised to read the negative comments. The apartment is really nice and we thought we did a good job of cleaning before leaving (removing bedsheets, cleaning bathroom and kitchen, and sweeping/vacuuming floors), however, when Andrea returned she was upset to see that we missed some spots of chili sauce in the kitchen that must have splashed as a result of chopping chipotle chilis. Apparently, those spots of sauce were enough to describe the apartment as 'filthy' despite everything else being perfectly clean. We found the comment to be totally unfair and this is the first time we have had a host on this site or otherwise, complain about how we left their home.

We were also accused of neglecting the flowers on their balcony despite watering them (and it raining). Additionally, we were accosted for using their en-suite bathroom when there was a note on the door asking us to use the guest bathroom only. Having not noticed the note initially it did get used once, but after seeing the note, it was not even entered again. We find it very strange and even a bit creepy that Andrea knew we had used their bathroom (even if just once) and would have appreciated it if she had let us known in person, or included the request in the welcome notes if it was such a big deal.

Finally, there was a complaint about sporadic communication which is entirely wrong. During a stay of 7 days, there were 2 days without messages between us. If Andrea wanted us to communicate with her every day of the stay that would have been fine but it was never mentioned so we were disappointed to see it being used against us in her review despite us sending multiple photos of Mike and communicating with her almost every day. We get that some pet owners prefer more communication than others but we were never made aware of Andrea's expectations, nor did she initiate more communication if that is what she wanted.

For the reasons stated above, we can only recommend this house sit to those who are aware of what they are getting into with regards to Andrea's expectations.

Jennifer
I just finished a fun week long sit with Cheese in Jennifer’s comfortable apartment and I can’t say enough nice things about the experience. 

Cheese is a delight. A true gentleman with a playful streak, he was endearing from the start. His daily routine is simple and he always seems content. He was a little shy, but soon his personality came out and he accepted a stand-in person very well. He likes his food, his toys, and he likes to have someone around when his ears need to be scratched. Just an all around nice kitty.

Jennifer’s home is next to new, nicely furnished, quiet, private, and secure. The building has great amenities. The neighborhood is full of restaurants with a grocery store a couple blocks away. Public transit is close by making it easy to explore. 

I was set up for success with clear and complete instructions & suggestions. Jennifer was always quick to respond to any question. She was gracious about sharing her home and making sure I was comfortable.

I would whole heartedly recommend sitting for Jennifer & Cheese for anyone that enjoys cats.
