Jenna provided exceptional housesitting services for us when we were away for a week in January. From the moment we met her, we knew we were in good hands. Jenna was not only tidy and organized, but she also displayed a high level of professionalism throughout her stay at VascoVilla. She kept us updated regularly with photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing that everything was taken care of. Prior to our departure, Jenna took the time to chat with us via phone call and even followed up with a video call prior to our departure to ensure that she had a clear understanding of our expectations. When we returned, we were amazed at how immaculate our house looked. Jenna went above and beyond by washing her own bedsheets from the bed she slept in, remaking it, and leaving everything neat and organized. It truly felt like no one had been in our home. Not only did Jenna take great care of our house, but she also went the extra mile to ensure the well-being of our dogs. She made sure they had food, clean water, and even gave them treats and chew toys before she left. Our furry friends were happy and content throughout our absence. One incident that truly stood out was when our neighbor mentioned seeing Jenna shoveling our three-car driveway on a snowy day. Not only did she take the initiative to clear the driveway, but our kind neighbor even came over with a snowblower to assist her. It was heartwarming to see the community spirit in action. Another aspect that impressed us was Jenna's attention to detail when it came to our plants. She asked us about watering them and specifically inquired about which plants needed less water, more water, or no water at all. This showed her dedication and knowledge in caring for different types of plants, ensuring they thrived in our absence. Jenna also left us a lovely detailed note and some yummy mint chocolates when we returned. This was very thoughtful ❤️ Jenna's dedication, commitment, and attention to detail are truly commendable. We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy housesitter. She goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of both your home and pets. Thank you, Jenna, for providing such exceptional service!

This couple in South Melbourne were perfectly organised and a joy, with whom, to communicate. The pets were absolutely divine; the home wonderful.

Gary & Sarah
What a lovely time I had caring for Norman, Nelly, Pippin and Percy.
Sara, Gary and the girls made me feel welcome as soon as I arrived at the house (and at our facetime meeting) .contact throughout the week was very good, via Whatsapp. The house is lovely and comfortable and the garden is a great space for reading in the afternoon sun. 
All of the animals have great personalities. The elusive Nelly didn’t come in for the first two nights despite me whistling and rattling the Dreamies bag, but for the rest of the week she joined me on the bed through the night. When Norman was indoors he was usually sleeping somewhere close to me. Pippin and Percy are low maintenance and enjoy cuddles and being out in the garden in their enclosures.
As a sitter I never expect hosts to provide food during my stay, but Sara and Gary left an abundance of fresh food which was greatly received.  
I walked everyday during the sit. Some days walking straight from the front door and finding some circular routes and other days driving to Nessclife Woods or Lake Vyrnwy. The town of Oswestry is close by. My daughter joined me for the last evening and we joined the Shrewsbury Prison tour which is highly recommended.   
I would like to say a big thank you for allowing me the opportunity to stay in your home and I would highly recommend this sit, myself or Sarah would like to complete a sit here again.

Great sit @Crystal and Joel

The house is immaculately maintained and equipped with everything you could need (even food processor)!
The home is located in a residential area, surrounded by beautiful and unspoiled nature which offers a 
variety of outdoor activities.

Miss Goldie Hawn is by far the most affectionate dog I know. She wants to be arround her people all the time (she understands well though that sitting on furniture is not allowed). When walking on the lead, she will be checking/sniffing on what is important for her but without pulling.

The tigerrr will let you know when he wants attention - or food 😄. He will observe but mostly prefers a distance. He plays for a little while but wants respect once he withdraws.

Thank you Crystal and Joel for a wonderful stay! 💐

This was a great, short sit in Lucerne.  The location was perfect as you had easy access to the city, tourist spots, and the beautiful lake.  Gabriela was well organized and sent me all the information I needed ahead of time.

Giorgio is such a sweet, loving cat.  While he ran under the bed upon my arrival, it didn’t take him long to get used to me.  He allows you to pet him whenever you want and will let you know if he wants more attention.  I loved it in the mornings when I would wake up, he would be there on the floor right beside me looking at me and would greet me right away wanting snuggles.

I would recommend this sit for all the cat lovers!

Clem was a typical puppy, live wire and keen to learn what was right and wrong.  She loved a kiss and cuddle with me and play on her games.  
She is very bright and responded well to requests.  

Loved going out for some exciting walks , she was keen to stay away from other dogs

She was excellent and well behaved on the train which was a preferred method of travel as the location was perfect for exploring as the station was only a short walk away
Easy to get to lovely locations along south coast.  But  on occasion's she could be snappy - didn’t like surprises from legs and bikes 

She is still teething so important to pay attention to what she was doing especially in car and lounge

Shops also close by - so sit could easily be done by someone without a car

Fiona and family made me feel very welcome and communicated well before, during and after sit

I took care of cat Rumi ( as dog Lluna was on holiday). Rumi is a sweetheart who will keep you company as he thinks he is a dog (-; He follows around to observe. I really liked spending time with him. A big thank you to Hannah and her partner who are very good hosts.Very friendly and communication is very easy. I will happily look after Rumi (and lluna) again!
