Heather was so great! She looked after our cat and home for about 6 weeks over the summer holiday. Our home was tidy, and our cat was relaxed and happy. Heather is also a professional photographer, so our update photos of the cat were amazing! She also kept us up to date with any important mail that came in, or info from our neighborhood. She had good communication and easy to get along with. She's trustworthy and flexible!

I had a lovely stay! 
Lydia was very responsive in messages from the start. I was given a detailed guide on how to care for the cats, which helped me feel confident looking after them. The house was very clean,tidy and a nice place to stay a few days, with a big garden too. 
The cats were all very sweet in their own ways. The two younger ones were very affectionate once they’d warmed to me, and Ivy, although needing her space, was a nice presence to have around, and even slept on the bed with me for a while!
Thank you for a lovely easy stay Lydia and Nick

Absolutely loved spending time with Minka, my constant, loving companion during my stay.A beautiful but vulnerable furry princess. We had a lot of love, cuddles and fun together.
Ongoing communications and clear information with Margaret, always checking I was comfortable .

We just spent a lovely week in the countryside exploring West Chiltington and the surrounding area!  Lesley was great!  She made sure that we had instructions for the house, pets, and arrival.  
Ailsa is the sweetest, smartest little Border Terrier - she knew exactly which lanes to turn on our walks and would tell us if we were going the wrong way, would bring out her toys to play, and was such a good dog in the car and pub.  Mohawk the cat would come in to say hi, have some food, and head back outside.  Mohawk and the chickens were pretty self sufficient - food + water + checking in.
Lesley's house is very nice in a beautiful neighborhood with nearby pubs.  The area has plenty of hiking, history, and villages to explore.  Definitely need a car to get around.  A few recommendations in the area:  The Amberley Museum was well done and fascinating, The South Downs hike near Ashington has some elevation and views to the ocean, and to bring or buy wellies for the muddy trails :)

Great sit within a historical context within Highclere estate where Downtown Abbey was filmed. Lovely home with the sweetest wee puppy called Tuli that was so good and lovely to care for. Good walks everywhere. Great pubs nearby with the best food. Highly recommended

I had a really nice time hanging out with Gizmo, Jack, Mr. Socks and Oscar. They are all great characters. Gizmo and Jack are very different in some ways — Jack races forward on walks, is most excited about meeting people and always wanted to sit next to me, whereas Gizmo is more easy-going, goes at his own pace and is happy snoozing in his bed though still greeted me very enthusiastically — but they complement each other and get on very well. Mr. Socks is very friendly and often sat on my lap, and whilst Oscar is more reserved (and had a bad tooth) he was still very much around rather than being one of those cats who dart off. 
 
Jack and Gizmo are pretty flexible about when they go for a walk but they will let you know that it’s time to go if it’s getting much past lunch. The amazing thing about Harpenden and Lesley and David’s location in it is that you can walk through greenery the vast majority of the way to the town centre. The boys are very happy to go that far despite their ages, but it definitely takes much longer than you might expect as it’s important for them to stop and smell every message post they pass, and also to properly say hello to other dogs. You’ll also often have them at full length in opposite directions! However, I found that fun and enjoyed going at that pace, and they are also happy with a shorter walk if you sometimes have something else you need to do. 
 
David and Lesley are a really good-humoured couple. Lesley is very organized and has made a folder including all the information you might need. They are both very generous. Due to the complicated timing of their departure, I was actually there for over twenty-four hours beforehand so we had good chats and got to know each other pretty well. The house is about ten minutes’ walk (without the dogs!) to a large supermarket and other shops. They have a very easy-to-use television set-up so I caught up on a couple of series I’d been meaning to watch. 
 
I’d recommend this sit to anyone, especially anyone who loves both dogs and cats.

This was a wonderful sit overall with a sweetly energetic Annie that I miss already. The town has lovely stores, cafes and more of which I hope to explore again in the future. The hostess was vert gracious in picking me up at the train station and also dropping me off. I felt very welcomed and enjoyed a delicious meal which she prepared for us. Much appreciation.
