Peter & Libby are 7Star sitters. As soon as they arrived, my dogs immediately responded to them with wagging tails. They stayed 2 days before I left, to familiarise themselves with the pets routine. Both were very thorough, and made notes of their own, which they ran through with me, the day before my flight, to make sure they hadn't missed anything. Two of my dogs were on medication at the time. They also took one of my cats to the vets, he was diagnosed with cystitis, and required medicine via a syringe, which they had no problems administering. I also received lots of photo's and messages whilst away. In conclusion, I felt so happy and relaxed knowing they were taking care of my motley crew. My cats and dogs adored them! I returned home to find all my pets chilled out and a lovely clean and tidy home. They're an amazing couple and amazing housesitters! So much so, I've already asked them to sit for me next year. To Peter and Libby, thank you so much for offering to care for my motley crew. We'll all miss you.xxx
Jennie, Alan and little Charlotte house and animal-sat for us while we were on holiday for 2 weeks this September. I have to say I think they were our best house-sitters yet (which is definitely saying something!) They were supremely uncomplicated and relaxed during the initial handover to them, giving us the immediate impression that we didn't have to worry. They sent us regular updates about all our animals without overburdening us with too much information. The animals all seemed very happy on our return and there was not a single problem while we were away. Best of all, we returned to a freshly baked Victoria sponge cake, a beautifully mown garden and weeded outside path - tasks we never get around to doing, so that made us very happy indeed! They are a lovely family and I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you Jennie, Alan and Charlotte!
