Fitzy and Max are two of the best dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of looking after! They’re cuddly, playful, loving, and so so sweet. Geoffrey was a snuggler as well and so easy to look after! Would adore sitting these fur babies again! Ginger and Troy were great, kept in contact during the sit and kept me well informed about the house and pets. A clean home and good location, bus stop just a few minutes walk from the front door.
Caring for Sieva was such a treat. She is an amazing and intuitive dog and so very easy to look after. Karin's lovely home is cozy and inviting and in an old established neighborhood within easy walking distance to downtown. Treats were waiting for me when I arrived as well as coffee for the morning. My time with Sieva felt so comfortable Thank you Karin for your wonderful hospitality and the opportunity to care for Sieva. I apologize for this late response-computer problems.
I had the pleasure of spending a week in the LW family's lovely home with their affectionate and playful dog, Fizz. Their home is large and comfortable with a lovely garden at the back where you can sit and enjoy a morning coffee or an evening drink. Fiona was very responsive to my messages and told me all that I needed to know to care for Fizz and their home. I enjoyed many long walks around Clapham Common with Fizz and she was great company while I worked during the day and watched TV in the evenings. I'd be very happy to house-sit again for Fiona and spend another period of time with Fizz.
David and Christine have a very welcoming and homey mountain retreat with a laid back, loving, undemanding puppy named Elsa. Elsa is a natural in among the wildlife... deer and neighborhood dog pals, and loves everyone! You can go to area hikes in the gorgeous alpine setting but just the walk around the block (hilly roads) is a joy with whistling pines, deer families, and very friendly neighbors. David and Christine were super helpful and generous with their messages, quick text responses, affirming chats, and supplies. I really loved staying at their “retreat” with sweet Elsa. Thank you for the chance to be in your piece of paradise! I highly recommend this sit.
We absolutely loved our week looking after Nelson and Niska... beautiful cats with very different personalities but both super loveable and friendly. Maria and Dave were fantastic hosts, providing lots of info in the welcome guide and a gorgeous clean home to stay in for the week. We loved exploring the local area and would be back to look after Nelson and Niska again in an instant! Thanks for an amazing week! :) Mike & Cassie x
Mitts, Tesla and Onyx are adorable cats! All three are really chatty and everyone is special in their own way. The first two days Onyx was a little bit shy but then she really loved to play and cuddle with us. She has so much energy, it's really amazing! Mitts is the best hunter we ever saw and the first days we got some presents from him and he was so proud! He also loved to get cuddle and he slept with us in the bed. Tesla is a really lovely soul and he's so relaxed and calm! He started purring as soon as we pet him and he slept also in the bed with us. All three cats are outdoor cats and it was so much fun to go out with them and see them climbing the trees, hunting and walking around with us! Natalie and Kevin are a great couple, they're very friendly and welcoming! We felt absolutely comfortable in their house and we loved the rural area so much, it was very relaxing! We can highly recommend to stay with the wonderful cats and we would love to come back!
