Although I am late in writing our review, my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our one week housesit for Michael & Janie in Sept ’24! It was helpful to meet before their trip to interact with Jasper and spend time getting to know them. We arrived the day before their departure to learn more about the routines and then went to dinner together. The home is beautiful, immaculately clean, and we had a lovely room with an ensuite bathroom. We spent a lot of time in the beautiful outdoor spaces and enjoyed the gorgeous views from the upper terrace. A very helpful welcome guide was provided and Michael was quick to respond to texts before and during our sit. They are very kind individuals and made us feel welcome from the start.
Jasper is easy to love and it was difficult to leave him when our sit came to an end. He is very laid back and accepted us both quickly. Jasper especially enjoyed sitting with us on the patio lounge chairs and could be found sunning himself on the upstairs patio when not by our side. During the time of our stay, Jasper was experiencing skin issues and needed cream put on his belly. Although he didn’t like it, Jasper was still very cooperative and knew he would receive a “treat” afterward. At the time, he was on a schedule for small meals which was no issue for us. It is clear how much Michael and Janie love him and have tried many different things to figure out what is causing his skin irritation. Jasper loves his morning brushing and of course drinks from the bathroom faucet. He consistently makes you smile and is one of the most delightful cats we’ve cared for in our last 4 years of travel. Michael and Janie were wonderful hosts as well and we highly recommend sitting for them.
