Janine & Steven arrived on time and it was obvious that their love of animals was totally unquestionable. Their communication throughout their stay was very good. Although I put new batteries in the cat-flap, tv remotes, front door bell etc etc, the one thing that I didn’t think of was the smoke alarm in the Plant Room and of course, that decided to start beeping towards the end of their stay here. We asked them to turn the alarms off at the fuse box, but Steven said it was still beeping. When I got home, I turned it off and after 5mins that solved the issue until I could buy new 9v batteries the next day. They were very sweet and left us lovely flowers, a card and chocolates which was very thoughtful of them. Because we arrived home quite late, they’d already departed as they themselves had a long journey home. On first appearances the house looked tidy. They both preferred a bath to a shower, so I’d told them they could use the bath in my bedroom. Well, I don’t think it had been cleaned at all in the whole time they were here and I found myself at 10pm scrubbing the bath and toilets until they were clean! The bed sheet also was covered in blood spots and hair and I immediately felt I had to wash the bedding, mattress protector/pillow protectors even though by then it was approaching 10.30pm and we had our holiday washing to do as well. A real shame as otherwise we would have had no complaints and I hate putting anything negative but you have to be honest otherwise it makes leaving a review pointless.

Andrew and Kimberley
We arrived  to have a wonderful lunch with Andrew, Barnaby and Louis (we met Kim at the end of the stay when she returned from her holiday). Andrew was a very welcoming host and the boys are delightful - a real credit to Andrew and Kim. Then off for a walk with Chipie before Andrew and the boys set off for the airport.  There are lots of walks around the village which is very quite and peaceful. The house was extremely comfortable and very unique - testament to Kim's artistic flair.
Chipie is a truly lovely dog and a real princess. She loves lots of fuss and, like most spaniels, just being with you. She was very good off the lead - never running so far away that she couldn't see us. At night she stayed in her bed just outside our bedroom and woke up in the morning whenever we did.  A really lovely week and I miss my little golden shadow!

CELINE
Pato is a wonderful dog!  He is well behaved, listens perfectly, and is very affectionate.  He was a pleasure to sit for.  Celine was extremely helpful and got us off to a perfect start for our stay.  She was very easy to communicate with and always responsive.  Her house is beautiful and is located in a very quiet and peaceful setting, yet close to the city and amenities.   Trails were literally right out the front door.  I would highly recommend this house sitting experience with Pato and Celine.

MICHAEL
This sit was an absolute dream! Quinten was the sweetest pup and he accompanied us on all the gorgeous hikes we took during the stay. Mike and Lisa were communicative before and during the sit with any questions we had. And the house was well stocked with everything we could possibly need and had an amazing view of the mountains that we enjoyed our coffee to each morning. If you find yourself with an opportunity to sit Quinten, TAKE IT! :)

I had a great time sitting for Sean and Sam. Their two pooches were sweeties and apartment, very comfortable.  Sean and Sam are very organized and put great attention into the instructions for the sit and were very easy to communicate with.
