Susie and Nigel are confident, self sufficient housesitters who left our house  and garden immaculate; weeding and watering the garden daily. Whoopi and Betty were very well cared for too. Despite having little experience with hens they managed them well and went above and beyond their responsibilities when a fox visited and sadly took a few of the chucks. 

Susie and Nigel had to leave early to go on to another sit. Whilst our neighbours were able to step in, I feel it would have been more courteous for Susie to check it was ok prior to agreeing on the next sit as she knew we had a late flight home.

We felt very comfortable and confident leaving our cats and kittens with Freya and Keith. We are fosters and had a full house of 6 felines! We loved that they had solid cat experience through fostering rescues of their own and raising several litters of kittens. We met them before leaving and gave them a house tour and they were kind and lovely people. They left the house clean and tidy. If you’re the kind of person who wants frequent and regular photos/updates about your fur babies, I would be sure to let them know, as Freya seems to have a lighter touch with that or perhaps was giving us space on our vacation, but this was our first time being away from our brood for so long, and I discovered that I probably would have liked more photos and updates, just because we missed them so much! But overall a great experience, and our kitties seemed settled and happy upon our return home.

Nalah was relaxed and calm when I came home -- Sonya did such a great job taking care of her that she wasn't anxious to see me at all. I would definitely trust Sonya to watch my home, plants, and cat again. My place was tidy when I came back, and Sonya left a nice note to let me know about one electronic that had stopped working while I was away. I appreciated the easy communication & not needing to worry about Nalah at all while I was out of cell service!
