Carmen and Karim trusted me although my listing was brand new. They took good care of my cat and many plants in the summer heat, sent regular updates and asked questions when necessary - for instance when they noticed my video of explanation had not uploaded completely and I was unaware of it. Do not hesitate to have them sit for you!
Gillian was the perfect pet sitter for me at the time I went away. Her communication was excellent in the weeks preceding the sit so I was able to share with her that my beloved collie was nearing the end of her life. Gillian was supportive and unfazed by the possibility of having to take Meg on her final journey (with a friend of mine). However, Meg left us two days before the sit, and Gillian couldn’t have been more supportive. As my other dog would be without both me and Meg Gillian took him everywhere with her, leaving him alone for a short time only once. They clearly bonded as he was very quiet for the rest of the day after she left. Throughout my holiday Gillian sent me photos of all the pets and I felt completely confident in her care for them. My home was clean and tidy when I returned. I couldn’t possibly have asked for a better sitter.
