Georgia and Avery are two sweet dogs who were such a pleasure to spend time with. They have get different medications and doses each meal, so we were sure to carefully follow the feeding instructions twice a day thanks to the owners who labeled and left clear instructions. Additionally, we enjoyed for walks twice a day. They were very easy to care for and love, a pleasure to have as companions! We already miss them and hope to see them again.

After several years of hopping from one housesit to another, we began to feel the strain and needed a break. To recharge, we settled into a short-term rental in Bangkok for a few months. While the stability of staying in one place was refreshing, we found ourselves missing the company of animals. Our evening routine turned into wandering the neighborhood or Lumphini Park to feed / play with stray cats. 

So when a last-minute local housesit opportunity came up for a weekend in Bangkok, we didn’t hesitate. It was the perfect chance to be around cats again, explore a new neighborhood, and continue building our experience and client base. 

These three gorgeous cats each have a unique personality, but all were easy to care for and love. The youngest, Nettie, had just been spayed and was recovering in our room, separated from her sisters to protect her sutures. Despite wearing a cone, she still managed to remove the bandage a few times, so we closely monitored to ensure the wound stayed clean and covered, all while showering her with chin scratches and attention. We also administered her medication twice a day. Penny and Meredith are more independent and shy, especially Penny, who preferred to watch us at a distance from above. We managed to gain their trust with treats and letting them approach us when they felt ready.  

The hosts were welcoming and communicative. Overall, the petsit was smooth and enjoyable!

Enjoyed caring for Yolo and Lola for a few weeks! They have such different personalities, but balance each other out well. They are sweet, well-behaved, loyal, and easy to love! We took them for hour-long walks at sunrise and sunset every day. We always encountered 'soi dogs' common in Thailand and while they tolerated each other, we stayed alert because they all can get a bit riled up unexpectedly and they are all super strong! We also played ball in the yard every afternoon while watering the plants.

Yolo had some recent health concerns, so we made sure to observe for potential incidents. Luckily, nothing happened under our watch, but we were prepared in case of that situation thanks to the pet parents’ preparedness.

For feeding, we measured out their raw meals twice a day after each walk in addition to various supplements and treats specific to each dog. One portion of their meals required cooking which we happily did.

​The pet parents were super hospitable and generous as well. We felt really appreciated with all of their thoughtful gestures (picking us up & dropping us off, introducing us to neighbors, treating us to meals, preparing groceries, having professional cleaners come, showing us around town) to make us feel comfortable and appreciated. They went above and beyond with their preparedness and clear & prompt communication! Would love to care for Yolo and Lola again!

Lianne cared for Roland and Basil for a nice weekend! ​I carefully followed instructions for one cat's medications—different dosages for morning and evening—and made sure his brother didn't eat while he finished his early! Other than that, it was a straight-forward and smooth housesit. I had a great time playing with them and getting much needed cat time! They don't like being picked up so I didn't do that, but I pet them and Roland cuddled on me with purrs. Best feeling ever! Thankful for the pet parents who are communicative, responsive, appreciative, and helpful by providing clear instructions and labeling things in the home. Would love to care for them again!

We cared for Yoda and Chewie for three weeks in Malaysia. They have distinct personalities and were easy to care for. Twice daily, we prepared a special raw diet for these two, as per the homeowner's instructions, as well as a daily treat time. We also ensured the plants were watered.

Yoda is a gentle and shy soul, so we did not overwhelm her with too much attention. Chewie is quite the character and we feel honored he eventually cuddled up on us! This housesit was the first time we brought a pet to the vet. Thankfully, Yoda ended up being okay. (See blog post below for more on that.)

The pet parents are so hospitable and made us feel welcome and appreciated. They left us detailed and thorough instructions, as well as prepared enough food ahead of time. We felt equipped to handle any situation thanks to their preparedness. Would love to petsit for them again!

We took care of a tiny 12-year-old Maltese Shitzu in a lovely home in the Blue Mountains. We fed and administered medications as per the owner's instructions. It was quite cold at the time, so we made sure to warm her up with blankets and snuggles!  ​
