We have been very lucky to have had Maike for sitting our 6 cats. She is a very pleasant person, calm and a good listener. On her arrival we had a joint dinner and a smooth handover. The communication with Maike was very good, before and also during the sit. We received pics and messages on a regular basis. We felt absolutely at ease being away, and could enjoy our short holidays. Maike is open minded, interested in new things, helpful and accurate. A really easygoing person, nice to have around and to chat with. She did a great job taking very good care of our 6 furry family members, which requires to have a good overview of the different needs like giving medication, playing sessions, being their "servant" for opening the terrace door (although we have a cat flap) and more. Upon our return we were welcomed by a homemade dinner from Maike. Thanks a lot again, this was so lovely. So again, we had a nice evening together, and hearing all the stories from our cats. Our cats started bonding with Maike already before we left, and when we returned they looked happy and relaxed. Our flat was in best order and perfectly tidy. We highly recommend Maike as a cat- and housesitter, and would welcome her any time again.
Steve and Marilyn are your perfect house and pet sitters. They are super organised and brilliant communicators. We had a good understanding of their character just by seeing how committed they were to ensure we were all on the same page. They arrived and departed when they said they would, looked after our 2 cats well (we had no evidence to the contrary) and left the house spotless. We'll have them back!
