Everett House Sitting Assignment ..

Sit Dates Mar-24-21 - Apr-1-21 Sitter BarbandJim, Member Since Jan-22-15

Housesitting for Renee and Brooke was an A+ experience. I wish my wife, Barbara, could have enjoyed being there but she was at another housesit.

Renee and Brooke are very gracious hosts and made me feel welcome in their beautiful home. I arrived the afternoon before they left and we enjoyed a nice dinner and an evening of conversation.

Starting with our first contact with Renee and Brooke, they provided all the information I needed about the housesit, dogs, and neighborhood. Throughout the housesit, we kept in touch with emails, texts, and photos. Communication was great and I never waited long for a reply.

The house is located in a quiet community with woodsy walking trails which are perfect for dog walks. A recent full remodel of the house makes it bright and clean. The guest bedroom is furnished with a very comfortable bed (always appreciated), a dresser, and closet space.  Outside there is a patio with a bar-b-que, gardens, and a well-manicured lawn surrounded by a privacy fence. For personal entertainment, the wi-fi is fast and there are over 100 channels on cable.

The two dogs, Buddy and Bella, were a delight to care for. They are very social and well behaved - each with their own personality. Buddy likes to play with his stuffed squirrel and will fetch it endlessly if you toss it for him. Bella likes her tug toy and likes to play “catch me if you can”. Both enjoy walking the neighborhood trails looking for rabbits and squirrels. When you return from an errand, they greet you at the door excitedly with tails wagging.  

This is a housesit that you want to be a recurring one. My only wish would be that it was for twice as long. Many thanks to Renee and Brooke for the opportunity.
