This was a wonderful experience! Becca is kind, generous and laidback and I felt at easy being there. Wes is a sweetheart and very gentle. I loved our walks and time together outside enjoying the perfect weather and large yard. Their home is very warm and inviting. Loved the spacious feeling and natural light. I only got a peek at the kitty as she is independent and easy to care for. Overall a fun and easy sit that I would highly recommend. I feel privileged to have had the experience and would absolutely do it again!
Everything was fantastic! Craig and Stephanie were wonderful hosts making me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. The pups, Loki and Mako, were also wonderful. They were cuddly giants that loved to be near me! Only when they randomly saw a squirrel running along the fence did you hear them bark. They were very obedient, kind, gentle, and overall just lovely. The room i stayed in was comfortable; nice bed, ample space, and very clean. The home is located in a very nice townhouse neighborhood. I always felt safe. I truly enjoyed my time at their home. Thank you all!
We had a wonderful time with Walter and Chloe. Chloe is a complete lovebug who just wants to be near you, and Walter provided endless entertainment. Karla was very organized and provided very clear instructions for their care, which was very easy for both of them. Karla and Jay have a lovely home nestled in the woods near Poulsbo for a secluded but convenient location. This was a pleasant sit and I would highly recommend Walter and Chloe.
We loved pet sitting for Pamela and John and enjoyed it so much. Both are very nice people living aloha. We appreciate they prepared and supported us so precisely as we had a predicted hurricane in their absence which arrived as a huge storm. Everything went well and their home was totally well equipped for any kind of emergency situation. All of their pets are so lovely and handsome animals you can`t help but love them.
A challenging house with two adorable cats About the cat hosts: both of them are different and adorable in their ways. Milo instantly welcomed us and Sammy was shy for a couple of days. They are good friends and they let you know whenever they need something. Poor Sammy had a fight with another cat in the neighborhood and he had to suffer our care for a week without knowing us. Despite the fact that this situation caused us some concerns and great dedication during that week, he was an excellent patient and after that, we created a great bond with lots of belly rubs every night before bedtime :-) About the HO´s: We spent a day with Jeff before he left and we couldn´t meet Dee but Ale was constantly in touch by chatting with her. They seem very nice people and worried about our well-being. They always answered our questions quickly and assisted us in the best way when there were problems with Sammy and the house. They seem very organized and we think that also helped a lot to solve those issues. About the house: it´s a lovely and tidy place in front of the sea with all the implements you need. We were in the house at a time of many power outages and despite the fact that they have a generator, some household items were damaged by those events. This required more dedication from us along with the pre-assigned home maintenance tasks. Since we are digital nomads and when we travel we need to continue working, we think that it might not be a completely suitable sit for people in our situation. About the neighborhood: the house is in a quiet place, a few kilometers away from the town of Pedasí. That´s why it is a plus that Dee and Jeff let us use the car for shopping and visiting other beaches. They are a few steps from the beach and that´s something that we enjoyed a lot. We could see some whales from the bohio with the binoculars that they kindly lent us. Thank you for the opportunity.
Mona and Maple are such lovely dogs! I enjoy every minute with them!
