What a joy and an honor it was to have Phyllis and Jerry care for my home and my pets. I could write an epistle to describe in detail how much they did and how well they accomplished each responsibility. Our correspondence began many months ahead of my posted dates. Throughout this time, we stayed connected, and as we got closer, we shared more details about my home and care for the pets. Response time was prompt, friendly and courteous. They were incredibly flexible and understanding when I had to adjust my flight time and date. They arrived early on my departure day so we could have time for orientation, lunch, and conversation. Phyllis and Jerry were meticulous in following the instructions I left for cat and home care. They were dedicated to assuring me that things at home were going well by sending pictures of the cats included with special vignettes. They were respectful of my home and took great care of everything as if it were their own. For example, when the hose unexpectedly burst in the back yard on a hot day, they carried water in a bucket to my young Arbor Vitae trees. They are the kind of people who go the “extra mile” based on their high values and elevated work ethics. When I returned home, everything was glistening and spotless. The carpets had been vacuumed, the laundry completed, the dishwasher and waste baskets emptied, the stove shined, and the kitty litter was scooped and cleaned. My fur babies were happy and relaxed, an indication that they had excellent care while I was away. A delightful surprise was the colorful Autumn gift basket and note they left on the counter. I highly recommend Phyllis and Jerry in every way. They exceeded my expectations and fulfilled every task. They are friendly, enthusiastic, and fun to be around, and both have had a wide variety of experiences that translate into good common sense and wise decisions. It was truly my privilege to have the opportunity to meet them and to benefit from all they had to offer me, my home, and my cats.

Brigitte
The condo was wonderful, very comfortable and full of amenities. Roxy is a lovely dog, very friendly and well-trained. The condo is a bit far from things, taking extra planning with dog-sitting, but it's actually a lovely walk to and from the train, and a beautiful area for walking Roxy along the river. A house guide would be helpful, as well as a plan for handling urgent vet issues, as this came up. However, Brigitte and Brett are wonderful people and we enjoyed our stay.

We had an incredibly happy time staying in Liz and Alfredo's home and caring for their lovely cat, Sofia.  We are still missing Sofia and the underfloor heating in the conservatory!! Liz and Alfredo are kind, wonderful hosts and made us feel so welcome. We loved getting to know them. The house is in a fantastic position too - walks, food, history and brilliant transport links all on your doorstep.  Thank you so much Liz and Alfredo, we will always treasure our time in Hastings.

Hannah
Hannah's sit was just purrfect! Roy Boy is a very independent handsome boy and Hannah is a doll!  Her apartment is lovely and her bed is super comfy (this is soooo wonderful -- you know what I mean!)  I would recommend this sit without hesitation and would sit for Roy Boy again should our schedules align!

Marianne
It was really a treat to stay at Marianne’s house, spend time with her sweet and playful cat Gracie and walk with the sweetest and well behaved dog, ever! I totally fell in love with Oscar. Good communicator, mellow and affectionate. Also communication with Marianne was super and Oscar introduced me to the friendly neighborhood. There are great hiking trails nearby and the town of Gibsons has cute coffee shops, good restaurants and very nice stores. I’d love to come back !

Louise
Great, relaxing sit. Louise's home is cosy and in a quiet neighborhood. Yazzie is a darling that takes a bit to warm up and then seeks you out for a cuddle. Communication with Louise was easy and the instructions were complete. Location will give you easy access to see the attractions that Albuquerque has to offer.

Spencer
I stayed at Spencer's place recently and took care of Catara for two weeks. Spencer is an excellent communicator, providing ample instructions for a smooth stay, he is always easy to reach if you have any queries which is super helpful. 

Catara is honestly the sweetest most adorable cat you will ever meet, she is shy at first but warms up to people quickly. She is very clever and enjoys lots of playtime.

The apartment is in a great location in Sommerville, within walking distance of restaurants, cafes and other essential amenities. It is a short walk to Porter Square and you can get down to Harvard Yard in around 20 mins walk. Additionally, transportation links nearby make it easy to explore Cambridge/ Boston and beyond.

I would absolutely recommend this sit 100%
