Elke was really the perfect housesitter: reliable, organised, kind and tidy. She took care of our apartment and cat Takkie during the Christmas week. Communication was smooth from the start and she sent me frequent updates during her stay of how Takkie was doing, including cute pics :). She also left the flat cleaner than we left it! Maybe most importantly she was great with our very shy cat. It normally takes him a couple of days to come around to strangers, but with Elke he seemed comfortable from day 1. Thank you for everything Elke!
Tomas and Julia spent three weeks looking after our young Labrador, Daisy, and home, and did a wonderful job of it. They are both very warm, understanding and competent and Daisy was very happy with them. They took her on the long walks she needed and was clean and happy when we returned, and sad when they left. They looked after our home well too, and the house was spotless on our return. They were independent and managed well, and were responsive and communicative, sending photos and messages. It was our first experience of having housesitters and leaving Daisy, and they made it a very positive one. We would highly recommend them
