Jodie and Sam are a charming couple and they looked after our house beautifully. They came all the way from England with their two year old, Nora, who was just adorable, and we were delighted that they seemed to feel at home immediately. We showed them around and took them to see the local shops and highlights before we left, and they took everything in very quickly. Not only did they water our garden in the heatwave, but they were willing to serve breakfast to some of our guests who were leaving on that day (we had asked if they would before they came), which also allowed us to leave a day early. Lily our lab took to them immediately and got some daily wonderful walks. Apart from our youngest cat, Molly, who seemed to spend most of the time under our bed due to shyness, the other two house cats continued their daily routine as normal. There was an instance when Molly decided to create havoc around the house and make her mark, to which both Jodie and Sam reacted very professionally and cleaned up brilliantly after her so the house was spotless and tidy when we returned, and we were very grateful to them for allowing us to take a well-needed break. Sam is also multi-lingual so was able to make friends with the locals and communicate well with the shop keepers. We can highly recommend them! In fact, I felt sad to see them leave as I would have loved to spend more time with them and their adorable daughter. If that is not a good sign, I don't know what is.
Frankie and Joe are a lovely couple, it was our first time using this site and they came early to run through things before we left for our journey. I knew the minute we met that they would be perfect for cami and Mr Tibs. Very considerate in asking what updates we would like and the cats seemed to take to them straight away. We came home to a lovely clean house and happy cats. Would recommend and definitely use them again.
