Denise and Mark are lovely people who looked after my 4 cats very well and took care of the house for the week, too. Everything was in order when I came back, and while I was away, they sent updates to say all was fine and a couple of photographs of the cats as well, which was great. I enjoyed their company and would not hesitate in recommending them as sitters, and also in having them back! Thank you both, Denise and Mark!
Paul and Ann are a really lovely and friendly couple. I met them in person a few weeks before the sit and I showed them around my farm and introduced them to my animals and they were really sweet. They arrived on time as discussed. They sent me a picture of my dogs during the sit. The tire on my Gator went flat during their stay and they even took it off and brought it to my repair shop and I paid for the repair and Paul put it back on for me. They noticed one of my Chickens was hurt and contacted me. They were nice enough to put her in a separate cage with food and water before they left my farm, which was really nice. My dogs seemed happy and relaxed when i returned and everyone looked well feed. It would have been nice after an 8 hour drive back to my home if the sheets had been replaced and i didn't have to do it myself. My front door was left open as well as the screen door so the house had some bugs inside as i didn’t arrive back home until some 6 hours or so after they left. It is a farm and the front door was open when they arrived but the screen door was closed. I also had to vacuum when I arrived back. My maid came the morning they started so it was spic and span when i left. I will leave more detailed departure directions going forward. All the animals all seemed happy and overall they seemed to do a very nice job.
