Jorun and Rolf were A-MAZ-ING!  That's the short version of my report.
And now for the longer version.  My aging cat is quite standoffish, sometimes taking years before he allows stroking from those he sees regularly.  Rolf?  He was stroking Bertie within an hour of arrival!  Both Jorun and Rolf have a bit of magic up their sleeves because that is how their relationship continued and grew, and within a day or two Bertie was sitting on their laps and snuggling in.  Purring even!
Jorun and Rolf communicated brilliantly whilst I was away, sending me daily photos and video clips of Bertie hanging out with them and eating well, which was such a relief as my cat isn't the most easy of cats. 
And that leads me into the little crisis they dealt with superbly during their stay as it wasn't as easy as just having daily cuddles with the cat.  Bertie became ill and my travel plans had to change to accommodate the crisis.  They were unfazed and handled me being in the house longer than anticipated with natural ease and we quickly got to know each other well and enjoyed our time together.  Bertie's illness came back whilst I was away and they liaised with me immediately, and together with my son they took him to the vet twice until I returned, earlier than planned, to take over as I felt they'd dealt with enough already during their holiday.
Jorun and Rolf are two very lovely people.  We drifted into a mix of Norwegian and English,  not because their command of english is anything less than excellent but just because I like Scandinavian languages.  We had several cosy meals together because of my change of plans.  Jorun even taught me to bake bread by a new method.  They are totally likeable people.
And yes, it's a cliche but I swear the house was tidier and cleaner than how I left it and Bertie perhaps even a tad happier.
So if you're looking for sitters who are naturals when it comes to cats, and difficult cats at that,  and if you want to have peace of mind whilst you are away, then do not hesitate to contact Jorun.   But a warning, I think she's quite popular with animal owners!
Mary.  
P.s.  Bertie sends big hugs and says he's missing your cuddles!

Wow! Jeana and Mark we’re absolutely 5 star amazing. They took such great care of Hank and Hailey and they left our home spotless! Thank you so much. It was so great to know that they were in such great care, and we never had to worry. We hope our paths cross again! Thank you!!

Stacey and Jeremy left the house extremely clean.  Our dogs were well cared for and happy when we returned.  We would definitely have them back to care for our dogs again!
