Margaret
Our first time housesitting in a condominium and it was terrific!

Margaret generously made herself available to meet us the night before our stay.  First, we met Lulu, her 10 year old French Bulldog.  What a sweet personality!  She showed us Lulu’s routine, easy medicine schedule, meals and of course, her special treats.  Then she gave us a tour of her beautiful, sparkling clean home with incredible city views.  We were introduced to the building concierge and shown how the secured parking garage and elevator worked.  We appreciated her letting us know that we could call her for anything we needed and not to hesitate.  She also mentioned that the concierge would be a good resource, and they were great!  Margaret recommended neighborhood restaurants and gave us directions to public transportation.  

Her condo is located in the Pearl District, which offered variety and convenience with grocery stores and restaurants just blocks away.  The light rail and streetcar were close by with easy access to downtown, etc., so we used our car very little.  

Have to say again, we both fell in love with Lulu.  Since Kirstin has been around Boxers most of her life, we were impressed with how quiet she was…not a snore to be heard.  Probably four days into our stay, we saw Lulu suddenly jump off the couch and focus her eyes on the TV.  A commercial was on with a large excited dog and Lulu immediately started barking.  We laughed and were surprised to hear her talk!  Lulu walked us around her neighborhood three times a day.  After doing her “duty” she took us to meet her friends with treats.  She’s a special one! 

It would be a pleasure to care for Margaret’s lovely home and sweet Lulu again, anytime!

Vicky and Andy
Housesitting for Vicky and Andy was so much fun!  Perky became quite cuddly once he ascertained I was the keeper of the Dreamies.  He's a very easy, sweet boy.  Their home is in the best area for exploring Edinburgh -- just 2 blocks from Princes Street with a fantastic view of the Castle.  Restaurants are literally downstairs, creating a fun "buzz."  Although I loved hearing the voices of the outdoor diners floating up, the double-glazed windows make the home remarkably quiet.  The guest bed was sooo comfy -- I felt like I was sleeping in a luxury hotel.  Communication was quick and clear.  Lots of buses nearby and Waverly Station is an easy walk.  Everything about this housesit was perfect and I hope to return!  Thanks, Vicky and Andy!
