As a first time user of the service I was a little apprehensive about leaving our nervous rescue cat for 19 days. Hayley and Marcus were the perfect sitters for us and I need not have worried. From the outset we established good communications and that continued until the sit, during the sit and afterwards. As experienced sitters, they asked relevant questions and helped me to provide sufficient information about the cat, the house and the area. Hayley and Marcus arrived promptly and we had a chance to meet in person and provide a tour of the house and garden and introduce Mousey. Hayley and Marcus went out of their way to make friends with Mousey and he progressed to sitting on their laps, which has never happened with strangers previously. Hayley sent us a regular update, with pictures throughout the sit and it was obvious that Mousey was relaxed and he was well cared throughout. The house was left beautifully clean and tidy and a fresh vase of flowers and a card greeted us on our return. I would not have know they had been otherwise. I would have no hesitation in recommending Hayley and Marcus and would be delighted if they would consider a trip to Cumbria again next year, if their legs have recovered from the fells!
