Alica and Edgar were amazing - Possibly our best house sitters yet! Communication was a breeze, everything was on time, all the right questions were asked and to top it off they live just 40 mins away. We were immediately at ease with both Alicia and Edgar, really nice genuine couple. Throughout the sit, they sent us regular photo/video updates (which we like) and we felt assured everything was well with them, the house and of course Polly cat. We came back home to a sparkling clean house and a very relaxed Polly cat (we think she took a real shine to you both). We loved the chocolates and the welcome gift. All in all, we cannot fault a single thing. If you need house sitters, Alicai and Edgar come highly recommended, without reservation! We hope to have you back soon :)
Evelin was the perfect pet sitter. We could not fault her in any way. She loved our three cats as though they were her own and talked to them in the same way that we do. She had a terrible incident to cope with while we were away. Our house is by the river and there is a public area next to it. She happened to be looking out of the window when she saw two men throw one of our cats into the river. She rushed out to shout at them and to rescue our cat who had managed to swim out of the water but who was soaking wet and completely traumatised. Evelin took such good care of her. We were so lucky she was around when it happened and acted so quickly. All three of our cats clearly loved her and also clearly miss her since she left. She was so perfect in every respect that we hope she will do another sit for us. Unfortunately, clearly other owners feel the same as while she said she would return the next two times we will need a catsitter is when she is already booked. We will make sure we look further ahead in the future in the hope that she will be free when we need her. We had a few hours together when she arrived and a morning with her on the day she left and we found her to be such an interesting person as well. We would recommend her to anyone.
