I had such a great time house sitting in Sacramento! The homeowner was super friendly and welcoming — she showed me around town before her trip and made sure I had everything I needed. She left clear instructions and communicated really well the whole time, which made everything smooth and easy. Her cat, Myste, was an absolute sweetheart! She’s playful, affectionate, and just fun to be around. I loved spending time with her. The house itself was spacious, cozy, and beautifully updated, with ...

She left clear instructions and communicated really well the whole time, which made everything smooth and easy. Her cat, Myste, was an absolute sweetheart! She’s playful, affectionate, and just fun to be around. I loved spending time with her. The house itself was spacious, cozy, and beautifully updated, with a lovely yard that I really enjoyed. She even let me borrow her bike, which was such a nice touch — I went on some great rides around the area! Everything about this sit was wonderful from start to finish. The house was comfortable, Myste was adorable, and the homeowner was fantastic to sit for.

Barbara's home in Sacramento was a wonderful stay for our time there. It is conveniently located for quick access to city sights and conveniences. When we weren't out and about enjoying everything Sacramento has to offer we were lucky enough to spend time in Barbara's comfortable home with her cat Twerp. Twerp is an excellent cuddler and quite playful once he warms up to you. He is free to roam the neighborhood as he pleases and as a result is very low maintenance. As is the rest of the ... MoreBarbara's home in Sacramento was a wonderful stay for our time there. It is conveniently located for quick access to city sights and conveniences. When we weren't out and about enjoying everything Sacramento has to offer we were lucky enough to spend time in Barbara's comfortable home with her cat Twerp. Twerp is an excellent cuddler and quite playful once he warms up to you. He is free to roam the neighborhood as he pleases and as a result is very low maintenance. As is the rest of the home. Our biggest worry was deciding which movie to watch each night as we relaxed on the wonderful sectional couch in front of the TV. Everything about her home was comfortable and immaculate. This includes the lovely patio area with a small waterfall and beautiful flowers. Barbara is also a pleasure! Chatting at the start of our sit was helpful for navigating the area and for planning a day trip to Lake Tahoe. Upon Barbara's return we got to hear about her adventure filled trip and enjoy other conversation before continuing on our way. If you have the opportunity to house-sit for her do not hesitate to accept. Thank you so much Barbara. We'd be happy to come back anytime!
