If you're reading this review, it's probably because Graciela and Nicholas have applied to stay at your home. If you learn nothing else from this review, please understand that you should choose them, no questions asked. We spoke with Graciela and Nicholas about watching our home, and more importantly our senior dog, Rizzo, a few months before a weekend trip out of town. We were initially impressed by their questions and how easy it was to arrange a Zoom meeting to get to know them. Unfortunately for us, Rizzo started having seizures about two weeks before their stay and was diagnosed with a brain tumor the very week they were going to stay and watch him. The diagnosis complicated Rizzo's care and added several steps to his day, including us learning how to administer anti-seizure medication nasally. We advised Graciela and Nicholas about the new issues and offered to cancel our trip and make other arrangements given our new situation, and we were prepared to pull the plug on our trip. Rather than back out, Graciela and Nicholas went above and beyond to help out, and they've been the best experience we've had on this website. They agreed to a Zoom call before the stay for the specific purpose of learning how to administer the new anti-seizure medications. They sent us lots of updates on Rizzo, which we much appreciated. They left our home cleaner than they found it. Needless to say, we knew we were in great hands the entire time we were out of town, which we much appreciated given the recent news about our dog. We really can't thank them enough for giving us the peace of mind we needed to make our out-of-town trip. So, to sum it up: they were perfect housesitters, and we couldn't have asked for anything more. If you've read this far and are considering choosing them for your housesit, do so without hesitation. Thank you SO MUCH again, Graciela and Nicholas!

David & Caroline we’re fantastic. We met up before hand and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog Cora with them for a month. David and Caroline are very dog friendly people.
We returned home to our house clean & tidy and Cora happy and healthy. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Thank you guys

5+ stars sitters!
If Kara and Jack apply to sit for your pets, grab them with both hands. They are friendly, relaxed, kind, at ease with any task you throw at them, super organised and reliable. We liked them from the moment they arrived and went on our holiday knowing that hens, cats and place were in great hands. Regular communication before, during and after the sit, got in touch to ask info, clarification or advice, loads of pics of the furry friends that seem to enjoy their company way more than ours!
Unfortunately half way through their stay a really bad storm with hail hit our area with considerable damage to many houses, businesses, vehicles and crops. Kara and Jack got in touch with pics, videos and an update on the place. Thankfully they were unhurt and the house had no damage and was still functioning with a roof over their head and services. By the time we call them to check on them they had already cleaned the mess, checked on the hens and brought all 5 scared cats inside the house for cover and cuddles. Offered to take Matthew to the vet if we felt necessary. We hope that despite this they continued to enjoy their stay. 
On our return we found home made parmigiana and sourdough bread (fabulous!), various bits and bobs in the fridge, a bottle of wine and a lovely message. Bed sheets and towels all washed and dry. 
Thank you guys, you’ve been absolute stars and soldiers! Massively recommended to everybody to look after your pets and place!!
