I'm absolutely delighted to have had Thierry stay when I was away. My home was immaculate when I returned, sheets changed as well! Toffee was in excellent care and I think not sure who to go to when I returned. Theirry obviously has a way with animals, she is very softly spoken and caring. I am definitely happy to have her here again as I can trust that I will return to a very clean home and a very happy furry resident. Thank you, Thierry!!
Victoria was our first sitter and given that we were travelling to Australia for over a month and that this was the first time we’d left our rescue dog, we were anxious to say the least. We needn’t have worried though. From the first video chat Victoria was confident, calm and fit right into our home. She was completely unphased by the wee dramas we’d had before her arrival (no water in the village for two days due to a burst water main, roads closed locally due to heavy snow and a dodgy boiler we’d just managed to get fixed before she arrived) and took everything in her stride while she was here. I honestly don’t think that there are too many situations that she couldn’t deal with efficiently and with confidence nor are there many environments she wouldn’t fit right into. Belle was an absolute star and although I was worried that our rescue wouldn’t get on with her it was a perfect match. In the end Belle had a massively positive influence on Nelly with her chilled and nonplussed nature. Victoria has a lot of experience with animals and rescue dogs in particular and this was apparent as soon as she arrived. Victoria kept in touch with pictures of the adventures they were having while we were away. The house was exactly as we’d left it (she even made us a delicious casserole for our return) and Nelly clearly bonded to them both. If you can manage to book Victoria and Belle for a sit, I would snap them up. I really hope we see them again and we would welcome them back any time.
