Emmi kindly agreed to come the day before I left which was much appreciated and I was happy to pick her up from the train station. She was a lovely bubbly, friendly person, easy to have in my home. Emmi contacted me once when I was away with a picture of Alfie on a walk and on one other occasion to seek help with feeding Alfie as she had a personal appt that overlapped his evening meal time. I was happy to do this as had offered support like that from sister who lived nearby if she wanted to leave him for longer than the preferred 4-5 hours, something I offer to all my sitters so they can enjoy the local area. Unfortunately she did leave him for longer than I anticipated or my sister would have taken him to her house. I think Emmi struggled with planning ahead travel arrangements to and from Edinburgh perhaps not anticipating how long buses took, though trains half the time but don’t run after midnight. Alfie seemed relaxed around Emmi though I think his walking and feeding routine was not as he was accustomed to. I always tell sitters just to leave the bedding etc as I am happy to do all that when I get home preferring the attention to be on Alfie. Emmi left my home tidy though I would have preferred half eaten food to have been removed from the fridge and maybe the bathroom bin emptied Emmi seemed to have left her packing until the very last minute so was a bit rushed when I got home but we did make it to the train station in time for her onward journey

We are truly thankful to Chris & Gordana for the amazing love and care they showered on our fur babies Boo and Ellie whilst we were away on holiday. Our longest sit so far with a 3 week vacation, we were initially a little anxious to even advertise the sit, but after our initial conversation on Skype ( despite some technical difficulties with sound) we had absolutely no hesitation that Boo & Ellie would be safe and loved by them.  Their genuine warmth, kindness & affection for the doggies was portrayed from the very first point of real contact upon arrival at home, and then too ofcourse during the sit ( we had daily pictures and videos to wake up to each day of them being loved, cuddled, massaged, groomed and even some further training with them, which was over and beyond what we would expect, so truly such an absolute delight, when one is miles away). On their last night with the doggies, they chose to sit for a long while with the doggies to bid farewell, which was so touching & heartfelt. Chris & Gordana took great care of the house too, attending to any matters that came up in a proactive manner and leaving us nothing to deal with remotely which was a huge plus for us as well. We are grateful and appreciative to Chris & Gordana, and do hope they have an opportunity to return to Boo & Ellie again one day. After they left, I could tell the doggies missed them loads, for they repeatedly kept coming up to me, as if to ask me to find them from wherever they maybe hiding! They leave as lifelong friends who we will always cherish and will always be welcome in our home no matter where in the world we maybe.

Our pup was in great hands with Rebecca! She was so easy to communicate with, showed up on time, and left the house clean and tidy when she left. We will definitely have her back!

Gail and John
Gail and John are two amazing people. They are extremely attentive and helpful. I thank them for giving me very detailed instruction and for letting me know about the different care of the cats. Excellent willingness to communicate before, during, and after the sit. It is truly an excellent experience and is highly recommended.

Regarding the pets, Gail and John have 3 beautiful lions that have made my day every day during my stay. 
Effie, the youngest cat, is very reliable and friendly, but at the same time, a wild spirit. When you're not paying attention, she can be chasing a little mouse in my neighbors' gardens. She also loves to play hide and seek. When you try to look for her, she will hide until she is found, but after some belly cuddles, she will let you catch her. 

Orio is a lovely cat and very companionable. He loves to ask for cuddles and attention. She usually always asks for cuddles when you are working at home or tries to sleep on top of you. 

Zuco, the orange cat, is a bit shy at first, but when he gains confidence, he is the sweetest cat I have ever met. He loves food and cuddles. He is the quietest of the three and always appears when you call him. 

Gail, John and their cats are a really amazing family, as my first experience as a sitter they made me feel very comfortable. I hope to come back to see them again to enjoy a tea with them and their wonderful lions.
