Tracy is great. She did a good job of looking after the house in our absence, which was not completely straightforward as some work was required in the kitchen (the engine-room and largest room in the house) and this meant dealing with the plasterer, which was above and beyond what might normally expect of a sitter. Molly and Percy seem both to have thrived during her stay - Percy seemed noticeably better behaved upon our return, which in itself was something of a triumph. At 20 months he is still very bouncy. Sadly, for personal reasons she had to leave before the end of the sit, so it was not possible to get the usual end-of-sit briefing on how things went for her, but she communicated well before and during the sit and we were aware when we departed that there would be a problem covering the last three days, which we were able to manage successfully. All in all, it was a good experience and I would wholeheartedly recommend Tracy as a sitter.
We would be more than happy for Barbara and David to come again. Six weeks looking after house, cat and garden perfectly. Photos and updates regularly received during our absence so we always knew everything was fine. Absolutely recommended.
