Tony
WOW!  What a great welcome we received from Tony and Karen.  They treated us like old friends from the moment we arrived.  This was our first overseas sit and we were a bit anxious.  All of that went away once we met them.  Tony was kind enough to come pick up us from our hotel and drive us to their home.   Their home is beautiful, clean and well maintained.  Not only did they provide detailed instructions, both written and orally, for the kitties and the house, but gave us a walking tour of Newbury and even introduced us to some local friends at their favorite pub!  The night before they left, they went to the utmost to provide for our comfort and let us use the master bedroom!  Holy cow!
Now, onto Lily and Lexy.  Both cats are adorable and well mannered.  Lily is quite social and warmed up to us right away.  She liked to snuggle with us on the couch in the lounge while we watched Wimbledon.  Lily requires medication three times a day which was no problem.  It was a liquid med that just went right into her food and she happily lapped it up!  Lexy is also a very sweet cat; however, she is not as social as Lily.  She liked for us to throw her "sweets" on the back patio in the morning, and regularly would beg for them from the patio table while we were inside at the kitchen sink.  It was adorable!  By the end of the sit, she was happy to let us pet her head and meowed for us too.  They are both beautiful and very sweet cats.
Another bonus was that both Lily and Lexy do all of their "business" outside, so there was no litter box to clean!  Talk about an easy sit!
Additional note, internet was fabulous and I easily set up my work station in their office. 
Both Tony and Karen were available when we had one question about something at the house and the communication with them from the time we applied for the sit all the way through was outstanding!
Karen was gracious enough to drive us to the train station after the sit as well, which was much appreciated.
We had a lovely time at Tony and Karen's with the girls and feel like we made life long friends in Newbury!

teta
This was our 2nd sit for Teta's lovely dog Jumble and the 7 sheep. Jumble is well behaved both on and off the lead and responds well to the dog whistle when out. The sheep were no trouble at all!
The sitter accommodation at Teta's is comfortable and well equipped, and the surrounding area is full of country walks with cafes and pubs within walking distance.
Teta left us all the information we requested and lots of local contacts.
We would be more than happy to sit for Teta again in the future.

Michelle
Clem and Michelle are both super sweet!. Clem is shy at first because she’s very smart and likes to observe you. Once she feels safe she becomes a BIG cuddler and will be all over you. She has so much personality and she loves chasing toys like a dog. Awesome sitting experience.

Corie
I had a lot of fun looking after Inu when Corie was away. Inu is very low maintenance (and very adorable)! All she needs is her bowls refilled, her litter box scooped, and some play time. Corie’s place is clean, well located, and well equipped. Corie herself is very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Inu and Corrie!

Claire and Fabio
This time I was lucky enough to be in the beautiful and very cozy city of Bern to look after the cats Captain and Samy. Gosh, they are so beautiful, it made me want to take these cats with me, haha. Very playful and intelligent cats. 
Claire and Fabio were very welcoming and gave me all the information about cats care. They are a very cute and friendly couple. 
The apartment was fully prepared for my stay, it was a very clean and cozy apartment in a lovely area of Bern with lots of restaurants and stores right below the house. 
Claire and Fabio, thank you for your hospitality and organization, I had no problems during my stay in your cozy apartment. It was a wonderful stay would love to do it again !
