I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail. First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own. Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see. Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back. I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site! Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!

David and Mary made us very welcome in their lovely home and garden. 
It was a pleasure to look after Mira and Chai Lai. Mira was full of life as you would expect from a young cat and became more confident with us as the week went on, finally getting into our bed on the last night. Chai Lai was very independent and did not want any fuss made of her. Again by the end of the week she was sleeping on the box at the foot of our bed.
The location was great for exploring locally by bike or car with plenty of local shops.  The week went too quickly and there is lots we could go back for given the opportunity.
Thank you David and Mary

Antonia
We looked after Toni’s city menagerie for a week. Their house is a well lived in family home with good access to central London and a few mins walk to Ravenscourt Park to walk the dogs. The tube is just a 5ish min walk away. Mav and Velvet are lovely dogs and very affectionate. As Mav is younger we took him out for a extra walk at lunchtime and threw a ball for him so he could stretch his legs. We walked them both together in Ravenscourt Park both AM and PM, after breakfast and dinner. The pigs are a lively  duo who know when it’s feeding time! By the end of our week they knew us and let us scratch their heads and muck out around them whilst eating. The chickens are lovely silkies. Their coop isn’t attached to their run and so sitters will need to handle the silkies AM and PM to move them from coop to run and vice versa. Layla the newest of the silkies is just lovely, she looks like a pom pom and is really good at being handled. You could hold her and stroke her for a while and she would be very comfortable. Duchesse (the fluffy cat) would come and go as she pleased and was far more interested in outdoor adventures than us, Zibeline on the other hand loves company and will paw you for more head scratches and purr until his hearts content. We also looked after Montgomery the snake whilst their but he was very easy just needing his water topped up!

Louise
As Louise stated in her initial search for a sitter, Pippin is a senior dog and the need to accommodate that was clear.  We also have a senior dog, and felt quite comfortable with Pip's needs. We enjoyed the lovely neighbourhood of Colares, and were comfortable with Pip's relaxed walks.    Pippin is such a lovely, sweet dog. Louise is such a welcoming and sincere host.
