Kate and Alex were honestly the perfect house sitters! We cannot speak highly enough of them. If you have the opportunity to have them look after your house and animals, definitely take it! They were organised and communicated with us frequently, including sending us regular photos and videos of our two cats so we knew they were doing well. One of our rescue cats has difficulty adjusting to new people and often hides for days when new people arrive. However, Kate is clearly gifted with animals and patient, so our cat trusted her very quickly, she even cuddled up to Kate (which was a big surprise). We felt so at ease during our holiday knowing that both of our cats felt safe and loved with them. We returned from our holiday to a house that was extremely clean and cats who were healthy and well loved. We couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much Kate and Alex.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. This is Rachelle's third sit for us, and as always it couldn't have gone better. We had a bit of a last-minute change in plans due to a family medical situation, and she cheerfully flexed right up until the last minute both on our departure and our return. And as always we come home to a place that looks like the cleaners just left. We'd have her back in a minute, and we highly recommend her as a sitter.
