Steven, Judith and their daughters Rose and Esther were wonderful house sitters. We communicated well from the very beginning and had daily updates during our time away. On our return, the house was beautifully clean and tidy. Judith had baked a delicious apple pie to welcome us home. The girls took on responsibilities for the chickens and ducks as well as the honesty box at the top of the drive. Steven did a great job in the garden. He picked all of our apples that would otherwise have fallen in the windy conditions and rescued our crop of carrots from marauding rabbits. The lawns were also nicely mowed. This had been a rather challenging house sit for various reasons. Firstly, our beloved Rosie had sadly died just a few weeks before they came. Una was therefore on her own so she enjoyed walks and lots of loving attention. Secondly, one of horses, Cubley, developed a sore hind foot just a few days before the house sit which necessitated both Blue and Cubley being on stable rest throughout the house sit. Even though this was an unexpected level of responsibility, they took on the challenge willingly and coped well in the circumstances. Finally, we had been having some unresolved issues with the heating system. Steven showed initiative and contacted the heating engineers independently. Given these unexpected issues, Steven, Judith and their girls were wonderful and took everything on board as far as they could. We are sorry that they had more responsibilities than originally agreed and hope that this did not detract from their experience. We would certainly welcome them back to our home at a time when hopefully circumstances are back to normal.

Kelsey & Danny took care of my house and cat for one week.  Kelsey communicated with me as needed and left my house spotless.  She also made my bed without asking which was a nice touch.  I would highly recommend them for your housesitting and petsitting needs.

We highly recommend Karen for house/ pet coverage. She is reliable, kind, confident and expertly managed our girls, Bella & Copper while we were away. 
Karen has a very positive attitude and is easy to communicate with. She updated us daily and we had no worries while we traveled.

Alexcia was great! We got such adorable pics of our two kitties and I arrived home to find them happy and definitely not needy for attention since they had apparently had fantastic care and lots of attention from Alexcia! House was clean and BONUS, there were amazing muffins awaiting me after a long flight, which was so considerate, and above and beyond! Don't hesitate to leave your furry loved ones in her capable hands! *****

Sara and her family are absolutely lovely!  We only looked after Hermione,  the cat,  who is very independent and a pleasure to be with.   We did meet the dogs who are very friendly and affectionate. The house is gorgeous and comfortable with wood stoves, an Aga, wifi, and beautiful gardens.  We had a great Christmas there.  I highly recommend sitting for Sara.  Thank you very much!

My husband and I have been privileged to do this house sit twice. As soon as we met Mary and Jonathon that we were going to enjoy our 'housesitting'. They are very warm and interesting characters. Their home, animals and friends could not have been more welcoming.
