Emily and Greg were our first housesitters and it was a wonderful start for us. They went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable with us and even more important, that Rebel was comfortable with them. I was fortunate they lived in the next neighborhood over so they stopped by several times to walk with Rebel and me and the day before our trip, Emily came by to take him out alone to ensure there were no issues with a stranger coming into the home while we were gone. In addition, Rebel is a large rescue dog and, although he is usually well behaved, none of us were sure how he would be when we left as we adopted him during the pandemic and we have been home pretty much 24/7. In addition, she had to attempt to keep Rebel from consuming too many cicadas which was a chore in itself. All went perfectly. Our house was left tidy and she even had to clean up some things that Rebel got into - he loves pillows, tissues and plastic bags. This was by no means her fault, we left them where he could get them.....and he did:) Emily communicated with me by text daily and we talked about how it went once we returned home. We came home to a happy dog which of course made us very happy and more comfortable with doing this again. Feel free to reach out to me if you need more information about this housesit. I would be delighted if they were able to housesit for us in the future and recommend them without reservations.

ivonne
Ivonne and Caesar were extremely hospitable hosts. I found their home to be very comfortable, very clean, and close to many walkable attractions. The river walk and the coffee shop Ivonne recommended (309) were among our favorites. Timi, true to her described nature, took some time to warm up to me but bonded with my son almost instantly. By day two, Timi excitedly joined me for walks, time in the garden, and slept with us most evenings on the sofa sleeper. She was so sweet and easy to take care of as was the house in general. I found sitting outside watching the birds and squirrels eat from the feeders and watering the plants a few days to be a real joy. I would definitely come back again if requested while in the area. Ivonne and Caesar thanks for having us again.

Vicky
Vicky is a very welcoming lady and her dog Logan is probably the best behaved lab we have ever met.  We only spent 3 nights at Vicky's but totally fell in love with Logan, he is a sweetheart and we are both already missing him.  He is so good on a walk, just watch out if you are holding a ball as he gets a little excited and can grab it out of your hand.  Vicky's house is a busy family household, full of fun and colour, we were welcome to help ourselves to whatever we required throughout our stay.  The only thing I would mention is that the photo of the bath and bedroom in the advert are not the rooms that the sitters will use,  it didn't bother us, but it might someone else.

Phillippa
I had a really enjoyable stay in Philli and Michael's beautiful home. Henrik is a gorgeous, affectionate dog. We had a lot of fun together and lots of cuddles.  I was very sad to say goodbye to him.  Philli was extremely welcoming, explained everything very clearly and stayed in touch with me throughout the stay to make sure I was settling in Ok and didn't need anything.  I look forward to minding Henrik again

Karey and her family were as nice as possible. They also had a cleaning just before we came as well. The pets were great. We will miss the pets so much! Thank you for the opportunity to hang with your pets!

Andrea
Love love love these pups! Miss them already. I had a magical time with Walker and Dash. They’re both so well behaved and sweet and such good company. Andrea is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and she was so helpful and responsive with any questions or needs I had. I would 100% sit here again! Her home is beautiful and the area is safe and clean and close to a lot of things to do. I had a lovely time! Thanks for making me feel so welcome Andrea! 🙏🏻

Cindy
Cindy is a kind and generous host who communicates everything clearly. Her house is lovely and comfortable. Most delightful of all were her three wonderful, all very different, and all incredibly lovable dogs. We'd be happy to sit for her again and enjoy all the puppy love.
