What a joy and an honor it was to have Phyllis and Jerry care for my home and my pets. I could write an epistle to describe in detail how much they did and how well they accomplished each responsibility. Our correspondence began many months ahead of my posted dates. Throughout this time, we stayed connected, and as we got closer, we shared more details about my home and care for the pets. Response time was prompt, friendly and courteous. They were incredibly flexible and understanding when I had to adjust my flight time and date. They arrived early on my departure day so we could have time for orientation, lunch, and conversation. Phyllis and Jerry were meticulous in following the instructions I left for cat and home care. They were dedicated to assuring me that things at home were going well by sending pictures of the cats included with special vignettes. They were respectful of my home and took great care of everything as if it were their own. For example, when the hose unexpectedly burst in the back yard on a hot day, they carried water in a bucket to my young Arbor Vitae trees. They are the kind of people who go the “extra mile” based on their high values and elevated work ethics. When I returned home, everything was glistening and spotless. The carpets had been vacuumed, the laundry completed, the dishwasher and waste baskets emptied, the stove shined, and the kitty litter was scooped and cleaned. My fur babies were happy and relaxed, an indication that they had excellent care while I was away. A delightful surprise was the colorful Autumn gift basket and note they left on the counter. I highly recommend Phyllis and Jerry in every way. They exceeded my expectations and fulfilled every task. They are friendly, enthusiastic, and fun to be around, and both have had a wide variety of experiences that translate into good common sense and wise decisions. It was truly my privilege to have the opportunity to meet them and to benefit from all they had to offer me, my home, and my cats.

Jo and Rick stayed looking after Bella and Daisy for a week for us.  They very quickly managed to get Bella (the Saluki), on side and she was very happy and relaxed with them.  They took her on many walks, even though the weather wasn't great.  Daisy (the cat), also took to Jo in particular, making herself at home by sleeping on her!  The house was looked after brilliantly.  I can't recommend these guys enough.

I can recommend Helene without a shred of ghesitation or reservations..  She looked after my two older male cats and my flat for a week.  One of them is quite frail and needs regular medication - Helene took this in her stride, and kept in regular contact so I felt assured they were in safe hands.  On my return the boys were both in great form and Helene had left the flat spotless - she even made up my bed for me.  I can’t thank her enough, she was a fantastic sitter and I really hope she is available near you guys 
time I go away.

Ola and Robin were absolutely fantastic house/dog sitters. They arrived early to meet the dogs and quickly gained the confidence of both, even our more timid Layla. 
They kept us well informed of their welfare  while we were away, including great photos and video of their adventures. They were sensitive to our older dog’s needs, Robin even getting the train back  with her from a walk as she seemed tired!  
The house was beautifully clean when we returned home. A truly delightful couple. Thank you so much for everything you did for our precious pups.
