I recommend Steph very highly as a house sitter after she cared for our much loved cat, Charlotte. Prior to our departure we met with Steph and her easy rapport with Charlotte was immediately evident. I felt comfortable and assured that Charlotte would be well cared for and loved. Which indeed she was. Steph is a great communicator, practical and organised. She took initiative to get in touch when we were away, updating us with news and photos. Steph was completely reliable and treated our home with care and respect, leaving everything spotless. On our return, the garden and window boxes were also in good shape, and most importantly, Charlotte was relaxed and well. It was a pleasure to meet Steph and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for any house sitting assignment.
There is nothing quite like going away and knowing your pets are happy and your house is in capable hands. Within an hour of arriving Beanie was already cuddled up on the sofa with Cath and amazingly didn’t even bother getting up to say goodbye when we left with our suitcases! Whilst we were away, Cath sent us some beautiful artistic photos of our happy dog and cat and also some reassuring pictures of beanie licking poor Cath’s face while she was in bed! That’s one sign of a happy dog! On our return, we had a lovely evening with Cath who is great company. Were all very much, hoping we’ll see her again! Thank you Cath! Xx
