Vicky and Matt were good at communicating ahead of the sit and kept me informed on the day of their arrival of their travel arrangements. They had clearly familiarised themselves with our welcome guide which made the face to face handover very straight forward. They took really good care of our animals and our home, especially Patch who was a bit scared during a thunderstorm. We would welcome them back anytime. Thank you for taking such good care of everyone xx
Philip and Penny were the perfect house sitters. They arrived the evening before we left so we could have a good handover and meet our two cats. They left the house spotless and our cats obviously had excellent, loving care. Penny and Philip are obviously well used to pets and knew exactly how to treat them from the start. They got to know their personalities and worked around their less-than-loving attitude to each other. We have a large garden, vegetable patch and greenhouse, all of which received the best care and Penny even made some passata for the freezer from our tomatoes and valiantly picked the kilos of courgettes and beans, many of which she kindly froze for our return. We can't rate Phil and Penny highly enough.
