Louise was a wonderful house sitter, taking great care of my house and my cat. She was a pleasure to correspond with, and very calm about the house stay. I came home to a house that looked even cleaner than when I had left it, and my cat seemed to barely notice that I'd been gone. I highly recommend choosing her.
Angelina and Philipp looked after our 2 dogs, a big Bull Mastiff and an English Staffy for 3 nights as well as 3 cats and 2 birds. They were great with communication before and during the sit. We felt at ease with them before we met them. They are a lovely responsible couple. Very polite, trustworthy, reliable and respectful. They loved the animals straight away and were comfortable when the dogs were all over them at the greeting. You could tell they love animals. They took the dogs for walks & managed well as sometimes our dogs aren't easy walkers. They understood all our instructions during a 45 min handover and were happy to read the written instructions & pet personalities I left for them to help them out. One instruction was to keep pets safe and not let the cats, dogs out front. We have a cat safe fence out back. They succeeded in keeping our cats from wandering out the front door. Sometimes we fail at this! I enjoyed the photos they messaged us and they kept us updated with what our furbabies were up to. We came home to a lovely clean house, happy animals and some cute little Polaroids of our funny pets. They were kind enough to share the house, for one night, with our adult son that returned a day earlier than expected. We appreciated that. I wouldn't hesitate to welcome them back on a housesit and recommend them to others. We wish them well on their travels. Warm Regards Andy & Bindy
