Victoria and Hayden did a fantastic job of looking after my two aging kitties while I was away for two and a half weeks. I was particularly grateful to have such reliable sitters as one of my babies has reduced kidney function and needs extra attention and dietary supplements. Victoria and Hayden managed to give him a paste (which he hates and struggles to get away), and fiber powder (which he is also not super keen on and thus needs some coaxing) every day while I was away and never expressed any difficulties. At one point, Bailey was eating less than normal and they let me know and together we tried another approach to get him interested in his food again (which worked and they let me know how he was doing). Communication was good before, during and after the trip. I really appreciated Victoria and Hayden making the extra effort to arrive the day before my departure so that we could meet and go over the cats' routine together. It was immediately evident to me that they would take good care of my two kitties and look after the house, and that is exactly what they did! Not only did Victoria and Hayden do a good job cat and housing sitting, but they were also incredibly understanding when the hot water heater stopped working and we were unable to find a solution to the problem working together over the phone (indeed it ended up needing to be completely replaced!) Overall, a great experience for both the kitties and me and I hope they come back again in the future!

Caroline and Andrey were wonderful house sitters and most importantly, did an amazing job looking after our precious Frenchie boys Harley and Max for 3 weeks while we were far away in Australia over Christmas.  Initiating contact was easy, they were very responsive and we had an initial What's App video call, which put our minds at ease.  They made the effort to ensure they met us at our house the day before we left to go through any instructions and walk the boys so they would feel comfortable when we left them.  They were very organised and reliable and so sweet with the boys who fell in love with them (and vice versa!) straight away.  They maintained the feeding and walking routines perfectly as described, let us know if anything was running low and needed topping up, sent us lots of video and photos of the boys while out walking or cuddling on the couch - communication was excellent and we felt reassured the whole time.  Unfortunately, Murphy's Law and an owner's worst nightmare - our boiler broke down New Year's Day...but Caroline and Andrey were very patient and understanding while we fixed the problem as quickly as possible and were able to improvise without hot water and heating during that time. Andrey was fantastic at helping through the boiler issue and was able to get the HIVE heating reactivated which was no mean feat (all done via What's App - me following instructions on the HIVE app, then sending him screenshots and him sending back images of each step until he managed to get it working!). When we returned home the house was just as we had left it and they had done a lovely job of keeping it clean and tidy, and the dogs looked healthy and very happy. Overall we were so pleased we met them, they are a lovely couple, have had some really interesting experiences throughout their work and travels and we would highly recommend them to house sit and look after pets anytime. We will continue to keep in touch with them and hope to see them in their home town in Brazil one day!
