Brigitte and Wolfgang did a lovely job of looking after our house and animals. They were really helpful and flexible and enabled us to extend our holiday by a couple of days. We would recommend them as housesitters without any reservation.
Justyna is an amazing sitter. She genuinely cares for the pets that she works with. She thoroughly checked routines and expectations to ensure that my Lily was as comfortable and happy as possible. She sent pictures and updates as well as keeping my home lovely and tidy. Justyna also monitored my dog and saw the subtle signs that she needed to visit the vet. Many people would not have spotted this. She also adapted her dates and extended her stay when I had to extend my trip due to a family illness. A huge burden was lifted and I am eternally grateful for her understanding and flexibility. I fully recommend Justyna to anyone who needs their pets cared for. She is a true animal lover who treats your dog and apartment like her own.
