Danielle
Our experience, house-sitting for Danielle and looking after Panther was amazing. We left feeling grateful for the opportunity and would gladly return in the future. Danielle's warmth, communication, and attention to detail truly set the bar high for any future house-sitting experiences we may have. Danielle was great at communicating, ensuring that we had all the necessary information to care for Panther in the best way possible. She also provided us with a detailed guide to her home and neighborhood, which helped us during our stay. Her home was cozy, clean, and well-equipped, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. 

Danielle is thoughtful and understanding. We appreciated her flexibility with our arrival and departure. She made us feel welcome! Throughout our time at Danielle's place, we felt a genuine sense of trust and respect, knowing that she entrusted us with the care of her beloved pet and home. 

We highly recommend her as a host to anyone seeking a reliable and caring house-sitting arrangement. 

Thank you so much, Danielle!

Keith and Sally are great to work with! They took time to leave thorough instructions, and I felt very welcomed into their home! Daisy is such a sweet, well-behaved dog. The area they live in is breathtakingly gorgeous, and Daisy walks around it with you at your side. This housesit is a gem! 
Thank you Sally and Keith 🙏

My mom and I had a great stay with Mulligan and Maggie. The puppies are fun and so lovable. Robin provides detailed instructions and is easy to reach for questions.  A truly beautiful home.  Would love to come back!

Anish
I loved sitting for Anish and caring for Funkhouser! Funkhouser welcomed me and did not take long to warm up to me. He is so intelligent, he let me know anything he wanted with a meow. Even asked me to turn on the water so he could play in it, he truly could be the next Instagram Cat sensation!! Anish’s trendy apartment made me feel cozy and safe, wish I had more time to explore the city. Guess I will have to sit for Funkhouser again in the future.

Kathy
Located directly on Lake Hartwell, this beautiful home was a delightful house sit. It was easy to locate and close to the interstate.  Kathy and Wallace welcomed us warmly, we immediately felt comfortable.  Kathy is a great communicator showing us around their home and carefully explaining details about Bodie and Nelly their Golden Retreivers.  Her welcome guide was thourough and we had reviewed it well prior to our visit,  so there was not much that we were not familiar with.  
  Our bedroom was extremely comfortable (king size bed) and the bathroom was near by and private. We enjoyed lounging in the livingroom watching TV, sitting on the deck overlooking the lake and walking the dogs in their quiet neighborhood on the lake. An added bonus was their high speed internet!  Kathy's kitchen was super well equipped which made cooking a joy. You may enjoy sitting in the sunshine on their dock, kayaking, or when the weather is nice, you may want to experience the cool waters of the lake!
   The dogs were sweet, loving and so well behaved.  We administered meds to Bodie as he had slightly injured his paw the day prior.  Kathy explained when and how to give him his medicine and he took it like a champ!
  We found a couple of grocery stores very close. (Ingles and Food Lion) Additionally we visited a local cafe which was friendly and served yummy home cooking.
  We drive a Tesla and located a super charger 10 minutes from their home. 
Thank you so much to Kathy and Wallace for the opportunity to spend time with their pups, and enjoy several days by the beautiful Lake Hartwell.  We are returning in June and are counting the days!!!
