Lucie G.

How can I find the right words for Lucie and her wonderful family and her lovely little cat Marcoune. From the moment we had our video call, I knew Lucie was a very trusting and caring person. Communication was very fast and Lucie encouraged me to ask her about whatever I needed. She was happy for me to have friends visit me, all she asked was to know how many so she could prepare the beds. I felt really good about this housesit/petsit and I was right. Lucie‘s and Pierre‘s (her husband) house is beautifully decorated, colorful, cozy and you can really feel the Parisian suburb spirit. Even though they don’t live in the very center, you still only need 20 minutes to get to the Eiffeltower. And you can even see it from just outside their garden door. Lucie even left a map for me with interesting things to see in their neighborhood and also gave me a lot of recommendations of where to eat, where to get the best croissant. Lucie and Pierre where even happy to host me and my friend for one more night, even though they arrived back home. Meeting them was just delightful. And lastly Marcoune - what an adorable cat! Marcoune is an outdoor cat and she is shy for maybe the first hour but then she will love to be close to you and enjoys sitting on your lap while you stroke her. She has a fun and young spirit and was never aggressive. And she is honestly very low maintenance. She does her business in the garden so all you do is feed her and show her lots of love (which I found very easy). All in all this was a wonderful stay that felt like it was more than just housesitting. Thank you Lucie and Pierre, I’m really looking forward to see you again and look after your Marcoune!
