Joe and Karen were great! All the animals loved snuggling and spending time with them. They were self reliant and communcative. House looked fabulous on our return, they left us a bunch of snacks, and even helped out in the garden. Happy to have them back any time.

We spend Christmas in lockdown on this sit and feel so fortunate to have been chosen. Irene & Stefan's house is beautiful and had everything we could have needed. Terence & Bones were real characters, Terence is one of the fluffiest cats I've ever met and loved to sprawl on the landing waiting to be brushed. Bones wanted to be wherever we were, curling up on the sofa or "helping" us with a jigsaw. The automated cat-flap & feeders made them easy to care for. The rabbits were cute bundles of fluff and we enjoyed preparing their large gourmet bowls of veg on daily hangouts with them in their large run. 

The immediate area has some lovely walks along the river and is right next to the grounds of a stately home. It's a quick hop over the river on the little ferry to reach the shops & farmers market. Irene & Stefan left us some extensive and useful notes, they were very easy to communicate with and easy going. We'd be happy to return.

This was a truly wonderful pet/house sit, looking after the gorgeous Dibbley and Dax (two very sweet cats) in an off-grid cabin in remote northern Portugal mountains (near Vimioso, in Braganca). With detailed instructions, and a thorough handover from Max and Anna, who are great and very welcoming people, we were well equipped and very happy in our quiet little corner of the world. A vehicle (ideally 4x4) is recommended, as the nearest supermarket/town is around 20 mins away. We loved and miss the cats, and really enjoyed our time - would definitely sit again.

We really enjoyed our week with Buddy, he is a very sweet and affectionate cat who enjoys having people around.  He happily purred to himself while just being near us, it's special to be around such a contented being. 
 
Rob and Jo clearly adore Buddy and they left lots of different treats and foods for him, together with advice about what he likes best (mostly brushing and cream!).  

We met Rob before the sit which was great as that gave us a good idea about everything in advance, we were also given written instructions which we found very helpful, and Rob was very responsive to any communication.

Rob and Jo's home is immaculate; spacious, light and very comfortable.  There is a well-equipped kitchen, great coffee machine, and Netflix, etc, for entertainment.  We also loved discovering the area and there are some very nice walks to do by the river.  If you need to go anywhere the transport links are very convenient.

We highly recommend this sit and hope to be able hang out with dear Buddy again very soon!

I did not realise I forgot to provide feedback on this incredibly nice sit. The host and hostess were very friendly and welcoming and made us feel like part of the family. The pets were wonderful, the house and gardens beautiful and lots to do in the area. We would love to return for another sit if we ever pass this way again. Thanks for all your hospitality.

Nice experience, highly recommended. Maiah and Nick are friendly and kind, the house was left clean and comfortable for me. It is in a very good position, close to different tube stations and restaurants. Rusty and Monkey are the cutest cats. They’re routine is easy to follow and they are just amazing. Be ready for a lot of cuddles with them. Thank you

Zuko and Namaari were such a joy to sit for! They are both affectionate, kind, and make for great temporary companions. Zuko is a love bug and just wants to be by your side as much as possible. The house was wonderful, safe, and private! There’s even a nice walking trail close by for Zuko which made our daily walks even better. When Namaari is not playing in her paper fort, you can find her looking out the window at the birds or even snuggled in your lap if you’ve become her friend. Overall, we had an amazing time and would absolutely love the opportunity to watch them again in the future.
