Maddison took exceptional care of our apartment, garden, our two cats and our corn snake. From the first communication Maddison was professional and organised. It was clear that she had spent some time reading our profile to familiarise herself with our needs before reaching out to us. It was clear from our communication that Maddison was serious about housesitting for us and that she had researched the area. During the sit, Maddison kept us regularly updated on the health and wellbeing of our pets, this is especially important to us as one of our cats is 15 years old with an ongoing health problem. During a flare up of this condition, Maddison kept us updated on our cats health and administered medication to her. Maddison handled feeding our snake very well and he continued to eat well for her throughout the sit. He can sometimes be fussy so we know she followed our instructions well! As we were away for a longer period if was necessary for Maddison to forward some post to us, this was carried out promptly and it helped us keep in control of our life admin whilst we were travelling. Upon our return we found our apartment spotlessly clean, our cats relaxed and happy, the garden (including vegetables!) doing very well and our snake well fed and content. We wouldn't hesitate to welcome Maddison back for another housesit in the future and wholeheartedly recommend her!

Claire
This was my first sit, and it was wonderful! Claire is a very gracious host, and her home is beautiful! Every room was so comfortable. The neighborhood is great and within walking distance to downtown. The backyard is a haven with all the flowers, trees, plants, and garden. Everything you could possibly need Claire most likely has it! Claire's instructions about the home and Bentley were very clear and well thought out.
Bentley is so sweet and adorable! He loves chasing and retrieving the ball in the backyard. I loved spending time with him every moment I was there. He had this super special way of saying good morning. He would put one of his big fluffy paws on me oh so gently. So cute, and made me smile! 
I will happily return anytime!

Tora and Myrina were sweet. Tora took a day or so to get used to me but after she was very nice and was excited to play. Alyssa was also very communicative, helpful, and responsive.

Dagmar
From our initial enthusiastic welcome it was obvious that we would be great friends. Having been invited to stay the night before our sit started, we had an opportunity to share stories of each other’s lives, interests and travels, accompanied by a bottle of champagne and later a meal at a local restaurant. Dagmar’s house is comfortable and clean and located in a very tranquil and rural area with adjacent properties of similar size. There are some lovely walks to enjoy when taking Zorro for his daily exercise. The property has a large garden area for him to roam in but he will often require you to accompany him. He is mostly an indoor dog and does like to be around you but he is fine to be left on his own. Emile and Carlo (the two cats) are so easy to look after. They are very independent and make appearances when food is required. Emile will sometimes spend part of the evening in your presence. They do enjoy brushing up against you, being stroked and generally being noticed. Dagmar was very quick in responding to our application and we had a great video call prior to the sit. We were in regular communication during her absence sharing photos and news. We have also been in touch since our departure. We are pleased to have been invited for this house sit, the opportunity to see some lovely scenery and enjoy a relaxing two weeks. Thank you so much for trusting us with your home and pets.

What can I say - Penny absolutely stole my heart! She’s sweet, playful, and incredibly smart - also very low maintenance and easy to care for. She loves being active, and also max relaxing. Genuinely the perfect combo. And, side note - prepare to be VERY impressed by how many sticks she can carry all at once, haha. I definitely was! Alex and Kaylee are really warm and welcoming, and always replied right away whenever I had a question. The home itself is spacious and modern, with endless things to see and do in Bend. I hope to come back again sometime, already missing all the Penny snuggles :)

Dejana
What a lovely experience!

It was an absolute pleasure to meet Dejana and her family. We arrived a day early and stayed one more night after their return - sharing food, stories & good times. Great people! We hope to meet again.

Max, Aika & Coco are all absolut sweethearts and very easy to look after. Maxi is the good-est boy, loves to be close, to play in the garden & to go on walks in the fields and forest of course. Aika & Coco are pretty independent, while they drop in for occasional snuggles, which we enjoyed just as much. 

The house is bright and beautiful, with the living room opening out into the garden, creating an extra spacious feel. Dejana and Pierre generously offered their bedroom as an additional space for us, which was greatly appreciated, as sleeping on our own helps us rest deeper at times. The wifi is good - we could do all our online work smoothly. 

Thank you for your trust. All the love x

The house was perfectly located in a quiet area but close to Mill Rd and Asda also just a 10 min walk away. Everything was explained in detail and whenever I did have a question I received a quick reply. The cats being shy the first days and mostly staying in their hiding areas, quickly warmed up and we all enjoyed our movie nights and cuddles together. Feeding wasn't a problem at all as they allow enough time to still be out and about and you can always set the feeder if you do decide to sleep in or have dinner somewhere else. I really enjoyed all the purrs and company! :)
