Rebecca’s house and animals were a delight to look after. Bonnie is gorgeous and so well behaved, easy to look after, and adorable. The house is beautiful and we had everything we could have possibly needed and more. It was really nice they made up the spare room so we could have the odd guest to come and stay. They were very communicative if we ever needed advice, but they were also really relaxed and an easygoing family to housesit for. We’d sit for them again in a heartbeat.
This was one of my favorite house sits - Andrea's house is spotless and beautiful, and she is such a warm and lovely person. Kona is an easygoing dog who loved belly rubs, walks and just hanging out nearby keeping me company. Andrea left clear instructions that were easy to follow. I highly recommend this sit and hope to return soon!
I think that Ewan would take Saki and just cuddle and read books to her all day,every day, for as long as they both shall live. He took to her and has now asked we get a cat and call her Saki. Thank you so much for inviting us into your home and making us feel so welcome. All three of your girls were lovely and we would love to sit with them again
Melanie and Peter's house was beautiful and cosy. Inca is extremely well trained, very communicative and loves her walks (she is a wonderful dog to walk, very obedient and great recall). When we sat for Mel and Peter Kali has only been with them for 5 months, therefore she was still in the process of learning and care must be taken with her to make sure she doesn't run away on walks or when answering the door. She loved pats and attention! I have no doubts that with time she will be just as well trained as Inca. Peter and Melanie hosted us with unparalleled hospitality, kindness and generosity. We hope to keep in touch with them and that this will not be the last time we see them! Thank you ☺️
We had a great stay at Danielle's flat. The flat is in a good location to get into central Manchester and nice to have amenities with gym + communal working space, so it was perfect for remote working. It was very clean/ comfortable and Danielle's communication was great before and during the sit. 💛 The highlight was obviously Frankie the Frenchie who is a huge softie and such a character. We quickly fell in love and miss him already! Thanks Danielle and Frankie for a lovely house sit 🤩
Zelda and Max are adorable, independent, and a joy to be around. Phyllis was very communicative and just a wonderful person to sit for. Phillis' back deck is a suburban oasis to be savored!
