Dog Sitting in Corbais

Line and Hoyt did another extended sit for us. They were dream house sitters as always. (When we returned my son said the house was "better than new," which pretty much sums it up.) Line and Hoyt were a joy to interact with all summer, sent plenty of updates about Zoey, and left the house in terrific shape. They also welcomed us home with an amazing homemade quiche and some sweet Belgian treats to boot. But the best part of all was the love and devotion they showered on Zoey. It could not be more obvious from Zoey's demeanor that she had the summer of her life, swimming in love and attention. Z--who normally dreads our departures and lives for our returns-- moped around for several days after our return looking for her best buds Line and Hoyt to come back. And she was notably more relaxed and well behaved--a summer of getting taken everywhere by Line and Hoyt has made her a much better companion on our outings with the kids. I am so grateful Line and Hoyt agreed to come back this summer to give Zoey the best staycation of her life!

Nancy and Gerard couldn't have been nicer. I was ill and unable to go out of town as planned, and they adjusted to my occasional presence when I was able to drag myself to the kitchen for food. Nancy never failed to ask if I needed anything while they were out. She kindly not only stripped the bed, but put the linens in the washer and got that started for me at the end of the sit. I'm hoping to see them again when they're coming to the Berkshires and I'm my normal self!

Mirèse and Luc were absolute gems from start to finish and we cannot thank them enough for taking great care of our dog Frida and our house. From initial communications to regular updates during their stay we felt reassured and confident Frida was well looked after. Will strongly recommend to anyone!

Carla was very self-sufficient and took good care of the house while we were away. Sadly for me and luckily for Carla, she wasn't required to do all that was required for a sick cat as Cassius had passed away just before her stay. My sourdough starter is still alive and the garden is in decent shape -- I know it is hard to eat/pick that many raspberries and beans! I'm pleased the chalet was in good hands while we were away. Thank you.

We had a fantastic experience from beginning to end with Veerle, a true testament to this website. Took great care of Manny and the house, gave us regular updates and made our time away in general a lot more relaxing in the knowledge she was there. We would have Veerle back and reccomed her without hesitation. Thanks again!

We truly enjoyed meeting Brigitte and Patrick!They were very trustworthy, keeping good care of our home and our cat, Cooper. Brigitte took time while here, to tend to our plants and did a beautiful job. She reached out to us several times when she had questions and we felt comfortable, knowing she was taking an active interest in our home and in caring for Cooper!! We came home after being away for 10 days and our home was very clean and tidy.  We definitely would recommend Brigitte and Patrick as conscientious and reliable house and pet sitters! 

What else is there to say after so many cat sits? The kitties absolutely love Margot and like spending time with her. Our favourite cat sitter and always our first pick :)

This was the second time Huda and her daughter Amilia stayed with Bo. The first time a few months ago, we were able to meet them beforehand and we knew that everything would work great. Amilia and our daughter hit it off straightaway and Huda was very calm and reassuring. She also has a great sense of humor and is very easy to communicate with. They both love Bo and he seems to love them back from all the videos and photos that Huda regularly sends. Both times, we returned to an impeccably clean house and lovely little notes and chocolates left by them. We are keeping in touch for future sits and recommend Huda to anyone looking for a reliable and considerate sitter.

This first experience was very positive thanks to Xan's professionalism! For a fortnight, I could travel with peace of mind knowing that my cat Alpha was in good hands! Pertinent questions before my departure so that everything was well prepared, smooth communication during my absence and a happy cat on my return! So I highly recommend Xan if you are looking for a reliable catsitter who loves dealing with animals!

Marianne is a fantastic house and dog sitter! From the beginning communication was easy. She took great care of our house, garden and most importantly our dog. The two bonded instantly and even after two weeks with Marianne gone, he still wanders into the guest room looking for her. For me, that is the sign that our dog was in the best hands while we were gone. We recommend her highly!
