Whitney was absolutely the best.  I'm pretty sure our pets were disappointed when we came home.  

What made her so special? 

Our house was squeaky clean when we got back.  Everything was in its place.  

She sent pictures of the animals every single day. 

The plants were healthy and happy too!

Thank you so so much.  We very much appreciate you!

We had a lovely short stay at Karen and David's house. Louis and Leroy, the dogs, are gorgeous - they love lots of attention and cuddles and they both have such different but lovely personalities. The house is gorgeous. Karen left fantastic notes, everything was really clear and easy. Thanks Karen and family!

Shawn and Eric were very hospitable, allowing me to come and stay with them early, as I was coming from another sit nearby. Their home is beautiful, as well as very comfortable. All instructions they gave we're clear and precise. They also told me about nearby attractions and I even met a friend theirs.  This made me more comfortable knowing there was someone close by in the event of any problems.
Mona and Zissou are two of the cutest, sweetest pooches I've ever met. They were very easy to take care of and minded very well.  Mona needed medication, but took it easily with a treat. She had lots of energy and was so much fun to play with.   Zissou loved to have his ears and (lower back) scratched and would give me puppy dog eyes that just melted my heart!  The kittens, Cash & Bea, were jam packed with antics that kept me smiling all day. This was a very pleasant sit.

I had a wonderful few days taking care of Sid and Otto, their energetic labradoodles, and 7 chickens. The little cottage is lovely and it was so nice exploring the area including the little villages and footpaths.

Emma and Scott
We had a wonderful time at Scott and Emma’s place! 
Their dogs, Holly and Bella, while very different from each other, are both super sweet and they conquered our hearts in no time. Our daily morning walks with them on the property were such a delight.
The chickens are easy to take care of, and yet one is rewarded with delicious eggs every day. 
Their house is very comfortable and cosy, and it is situated in this beautiful landscape of Sabina which did not stop to amaze us. The view from their balcony and seeing the weather change was just amazing.
There is a great café in walking distance too. Communication was always smooth and we absolutely recommend this sit. And we would come back any day!

One of my favorite stay is so far! Margaret and Pete are lovely people with great clear communication. They are also very reasonable and laid-back. I did not get to hang out with their pup much since they took her in their trip, though did meet her and she is a total darling. The chickens were easy and funny, and I enjoyed catching cicadas (it was during the mega brood summer) and they went wild for them. The home and bed were very comfortable, and I had everything I needed. I’d love to sit for them again in the future if the timing works out!

We spent 10 days sitting Ruby and Lily and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Ruby is a very friendly, loving Vizsla who was super easy to look after.  We all fell in love with her. She is well trained and enjoys her daily walks as did us humans. Lily is a small Burmese house cat that enjoyed her cuddles and affection. 
We arrived the afternoon prior to Martin and Fiona leaving for vacation so we were able to meet Ruby and Lily and learn their routines prior to them leaving. They are a wonderful family and would recommend this sit to anyone who loves dogs and cats.
