Housesitting for Alan and Dorothy was a highlight of my 57 sits so far with TH. There warm welcome and invitation to eat food they left in their refrig was a welcomed bonus. Betty and Dudley were darling dogs, keeping me entertained and providing great company. Haslemere is a charming village with three grocery stores, many coffee shops and interesting landmarks nearby such as The Devils Punchbowl. I hope to be invited back in the fall. If you have the chance to accept a sit with Alan and Dorothy in their lovely home and garden you will be lucky indeed!!! Thank you!!! Joy
Beautiful countryside and fresh air. Perfect 'furry' company and a comfortable home. Friendly, lovely hosts - a wonderful sit.
Fynn was brilliant to deal with and I had such a lovely time with Poppy who is such a delight. The location is superb and the apartment is really comfortable. Communication was great throughout the sit (mainly me providing updates on Poppy!). Thanks again Fynn!
This was one of my favorite sits. I didn’t want to leave Tina's cozy home and lovely kitties. I felt so welcomed and at home there. I absolutely fell in love with the cats. Snufkin is so lovey and adorable, even if he is rather naughty sometimes. Sheila Pipkins is the sweetest and my favorite times with her were when she climbed onto my shoulders and draped herself across me to cuddle. Rodney was a little more aloof, but still so friendly and sweet and often sleeping in bed with me. And Tina and Geoff were unbelievably welcoming, kind, and generous. We became fast friends. I really hope that I get to return sometime and I’m looking forward to seeing them all again.
Great hosts and dogs were the best!! And such a cute house in a great location. Would house and doggy sit for them again in a heartbeat!
Nothing less than AMAZIIING!! Such good family we can feel the love of your family while staying at your home. The dogs and cats complete this love expression. They are very affectionate. So grateful for this experience. Congratulations for your affectionate and good energy family. Looking forward to came back.
