Eric is a wonderful sitter! I knew he would be great after I saw all of his 5 star reviews. When I first talked to him, Eric was very amiable, and asked all the right questions, which showed me that he had read through the listing and paid particular attention to the types of pets that we had and their particular quarks. Eric took the time to meet with me as needed before he came to the place. He was always happy to meet me at the times/days I requested. We had to catch a ferry and it was prebooked, Eric was very flexible and allowed for plenty of time to arrive at our home for us at arrive back so we did not have to worry about the dogs being alone. During his stay, Eric made sure that the dogs were walked and properly attended to. One of our dogs requires daily medication and Eric did a great job with that. One of our boys was a bit whiny during the stay and we had a chat about it, Eric solved the problem during his stay. One the day we came home, Eric offered to launder the sheet and towels which was a such a relief to me a I had so much to do when I got home. One of the best things that Eric did was take our dogs for one last walk right before we came home so that we did not have to attend to them after our long journey. When we got home, our house was clean, our dogs were happy and tired and we were extremely pleased. Be sure to book Eric if he enquires about your listing!

Jacob sat for me for just under 3 weeks and I had no concern about leaving him in charge of my two dogs. Communication before the sit was good and he kept me up to date on his travel arrangements. He kindly went out of his way to make an extra journey the day before the sit to meet the dogs to ensure the handover went as smoothly as possible. We communicated via messaging and video calls frequently while I was away which I find essential. He didn't hesitate to ask if he had any questions regarding the house or the dogs. He cared for one of my dog's eyes by bathing it when necessary and I returned home to 2 happy and healthy dogs. Thanks, Jacob!

Sarina was eager and very communicative. I appreciated her taking the job short notice as my other cat care fell through and her willingness to come over and check our home out prior to leaving. Shortfalls would be that our pool was sparkling when we left, and a pond that required draining and full cleaning upon return, three weeks later…she had turned off all pumps and vacuums and then thought it wasn’t working. When she told me she was struggling with the pool I let her know I would come home early if it was too big of a problem and she said she would contact the pool expert at her property management position and I didn’t hear another concern from her. She did let me know her kids would be with her occasionally, which was fine with me, however she did allow them to play under my bed unattended in the master bedroom, where my cat goes to be left alone, and order 4 shows from my prime account. Upon our return she left us gifts, which were thoughtful and kind. Some strange and concerning items found were her personal towels mixed in with mine, despite me leaving plenty of clean towels in each bathroom, silverware in my dishwasher that was not ours, a cigarette butt in the dryer, a leg razor (and accompanying leg hair) in my 4yo’s bath toy box, an extraordinarily explicit bedroom wear in my 12yo’s desk in the kids media room, and a replacement for our toilet brush. As far as cleaning, it was a bummer to have to put away so many dishes (full dishwasher and countertop pile as well), clean the fridge that still contained her half eaten tuna salad in a loosely covered dish, try to get glitter paint or glue off the patio, and the realization that our pool was in complete disrepair. My cat has been skittish of our kids since return but is healthy and alive. Overall I found Sarina to be very kind and while we were gone, very communicative; she offered me many interesting facts and diy fixed for things around my home. I wish I had set better and clearer boundaries regarding the kids and asked more questions. I imagine she would be well suited for someone without a pool and more prepared for their first house sit.

Anne is one of our favorite sitters for good reason.  Five ⭐️ on all the ratings and in addition we returned to a VERY happy and well loved dog.  Our home lost power during our trip and Anne was bothered communicative and self-sufficient in managing.   We will definitely welcome and hope she comes back.

We had a wonderful few days looking after Tigger, Phoebe, and Raye, not to mention the sweet gecko, Princess Peach. Sarah's home is on a quiet street in Liverpool with plenty of shops and parks nearby, making a car unnecessary, although we had ours (parking was no problem). 
Although we didn't meet Sarah in person, her communication was excellent throughout and we felt very welcome. The cats are all delightful, each with their own unique personalities - from the daring and lovable Tigger to the initially shy Raye. Phoebe is a total love bug who adores cuddles. 
We’d recommend this sit wholeheartedly, thank you again for choosing us Sarah!
