Steven, Judith and their daughters Rose and Esther were wonderful house sitters. We communicated well from the very beginning and had daily updates during our time away. On our return, the house was beautifully clean and tidy. Judith had baked a delicious apple pie to welcome us home. The girls took on responsibilities for the chickens and ducks as well as the honesty box at the top of the drive. Steven did a great job in the garden. He picked all of our apples that would otherwise have fallen in the windy conditions and rescued our crop of carrots from marauding rabbits. The lawns were also nicely mowed. This had been a rather challenging house sit for various reasons. Firstly, our beloved Rosie had sadly died just a few weeks before they came. Una was therefore on her own so she enjoyed walks and lots of loving attention. Secondly, one of horses, Cubley, developed a sore hind foot just a few days before the house sit which necessitated both Blue and Cubley being on stable rest throughout the house sit. Even though this was an unexpected level of responsibility, they took on the challenge willingly and coped well in the circumstances. Finally, we had been having some unresolved issues with the heating system. Steven showed initiative and contacted the heating engineers independently. Given these unexpected issues, Steven, Judith and their girls were wonderful and took everything on board as far as they could. We are sorry that they had more responsibilities than originally agreed and hope that this did not detract from their experience. We would certainly welcome them back to our home at a time when hopefully circumstances are back to normal.

This was Michael second sit with us. He took wonderful care of our cats, our house and garden. He is our first choice when we go out and need someone to sit for us, but he's always so busy! :)

Susan took wonderful care of Izzi during my extended time away. She sent pictures and updates, and Izzi looked content in all of them as well as when I got home. Definitely recommend Susan as a kind, reliable, and communicative sitter!

Toby and Chloe were a pleasant couple to have at our house.
They were kind and generous to accomodate the last-minute, two additional furry family members--which we are extremely grateful for. 
When we came back, we were able to feel that all of our cats were given close attention and well taken care of.
Toby and Chloe were self-reliant, which is extremely important in this part of the area in this season--a house in northern part of France in winter--as one needs to start fire from fireplace to warm up the house. 
On the last day, they left the house extremely clean. 
They are a couple who is reliable, respectful and responsive. We give our highest recommendation to this couple and they would always be welcome at our house.
