Communication with Ruth was easy and lovely. She was flexible and took initiative in leaving my house clean and cosy for my return. And my cat seemed positively curious about her based on the video I received! I’ll be happy to have her house sit and cat sit anytime again
Barry and Lesley did a great job for us while we were in SW USA Feb 18,2020 to March 30. They send photos of our cat Binx often enough to not miss him (joke - but we do sleep better when we are gone) and they even took care of a couple plumbing issues they found! When we had cell coverage (not often) we had good communication and fun updates. They were house sitting when the whole of the world changed, almost overnight with the COVID-19 virus hit. Five and a half weeks into a 6 and 1/2 week trip all of the parks closed down where we were. Not to mention everything else - well you all know that. But they were also VERY flexible and helped up out get home a week early - which had to have been stressful for them because they had to find a place to live too - They couldn't get back to Costa Rica! We are so grateful for their help. It felt so good to be gone and absolutely know that things were OK at home.
