Deborah and Mark are among the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. They are lovely people, well-organised, and attentive throughout the sit. We returned to a spotless house and a happy cat. They even asked if they could do some weeding while we were away! Would have them back here in a heartbeat and one of the few we would very much like to stay in contact with.
Marie sat for my 2 cats for 5 nights.We had good communication prior to the sit. No photos were shared (I didn't ask for any so maybe ask if this is something you want) and I wasn't told that my toilet flush was broken which is unfortunate because i could have explained how to fix it quite easily. I'm not sure my cats were let out at the times I requested - my neighbour messaged to say she hadn't seen them one evening, I looked on the garden camera (i had told Marie this existed and advised she could turn it off if she wanted) and on that particular day they didn't come out until gone 1000 (they're usually climbing the window by 0800) and seemed to be shut in just after 1800. That was only one day, though, so it was not too much of an issue. The other days were fine, and the cats seemed happy when I got home. House was really nice and clean, with no other issues.
