Meudon

It was a fantastic experience! First of all, Alex and Olivier are great hosts. Alex met us at home with a very tasty welcome dinner. She knew that we are vegans, so she cooked dinner especially for us. She took me for a walk around Meudon to make me comfortable from the first day. Yoku... Yoku is my lovely cat, and I miss him deeply. We had very special relations with Yoku. He is very smart, gentle, affectionate, playful, and accurate. He is a dream cat to look for. We really enjoyed his company. Meudon is beautiful, small, safe, very green and full of history. It was a pleasure to return there after the noise of Paris. Its perfectly connected with Paris - 15 minutes by RER or 40 minutes by bus. All groceries, shops, all you need - in walking distance. And the place is so good! It's full of light and love. Very comfortable. Fully equipped with everything. And each small thing in the apartment is telling the story of the beautiful family living in it. The vibe is lovely. We enjoyed it a lot. At the end of the sit we met finally the whole family and had a lovely dinner at their lovely place. And we played with Yoku again and cuddled! It was the case when we met fantastic people and became friends. So, pet-sitting is not just about exchanging care of animals for free accommodation. Its also about meeting people and connecting with them. And making friends! Dear Alex, Olivier, Noa, Liam, and YOKU! We had a great time at your place. Thank you very much! See you again! Soon! :-)

We met at Alex and Olivier’s home the day before the handover to share dinner and get to know each other a bit. Alex explained what was expected regarding the cats’ care, details that were clearly outlined in the home book as well. The book also included recommendations on where to shop, eat, and what to see in the area. Throughout our stay, Alex continued to give us tips on places to explore. The apartment was clean, bright, and well-equipped—we didn’t find ourselves lacking anything. Meudon is quiet, green, and architecturally interesting, with Paris and Versailles both reachable in about 30-45 minutes by public transport, or within a couple of hours on foot. The cats, a Russian Blue and a regular moggie, were delightful in their unique ways. Aldo, the Russian Blue, is stately and affectionate on his own terms, while Yoku craves affection and play and is full of beans, getting about as if by teleportation. It was no trouble giving Aldo his medication, and both were easy to get on with. When Alex and Olivier returned, we spent a couple of hours chatting and getting to know each other better. They were fantastic hosts. We’ll likely stay in touch.
