We stuck gold here! I was so anxious about leaving our home in the hands of complete strangers but after the very first Skype meeting I began to feel more comfortable. Karyn and Brian arrived the day before we left so we were able to show them the local areas and also get to know them a bit better. We found we had a good deal in common and had a very enjoyable day with them. The dogs took to them immediately which is always a good sign. It is clear Karyn and Brian genuinely love dogs. Our old boxer has some issues around special food and medication but this was not a problem for these guys. They sent pictures of the dogs and kept us up to date (albeit our internet access was limited whilst we were away). They cared for our house and on the day we came back it was spotless and my husband was amazed that Brian had mowed the lawns! Even left some fresh milk in the fridge for us which I appreciated and the bed was stripped, sheets washed and re-made!. I honestly think they went above and beyond what we wanted and expected. In my view, Karyn and Brian are the classic example of "what you see is what you get." They were friendly, open, warm and funny. They did everything we asked them to do and then some. They even managed the "nosey" neighbours :). I would highly recommend Karyn and Brian to anyone who is looking for a sensible, down to earth and honest couple who genuinely care for animals. Happy to field any other questions if required. Thank you Karyn and Brian :)

Rosemary
This was one of our best ever sits. Rosie and Trevor were generouse and friendly hosts who made our stay easy and fun in sunny Tenerife. Ronnie and Rico are two of the best and friendliest loving dogs we have met in our travels, we miss them very much. 

We've come away with some beautiful memories and we highly recommend this 5-star sit.

my family and I had the BEST time staying at Sophie’s with Skye & Ralphie! the house is super cute and clean, and it was perfect for our little family. it’s super central to local shops and parks, with great transport links to London! Skye & Ralphie were so sweet and SO SO cuddly, we fell in love with them so fast! Skye loved to sit with us (or on us lol), loved exploring, and was very vocal about what she wanted! Ralphie loved his independence, but also made it very clear when he wanted a scratch or a cuddle. we hope to be able to stay again!
