This was the third time Elke sat for us, please see our other reviews. Again, we couldn't have asked for more and the only problem is that I think our cats miss Elke too much when she leaves! Both of our cats seem so happy whenever she is looking after them, and in particular Luna who tends to be more shy with strangers, seems to relax completely and we can see a difference in her behaviour since Elke looked after - she is more playful and generally just seems so content. Elke went above and beyond offering to do things we would never expect but were so grateful for, such as cleaning out the litter trays, sorting out their complicated feeding routine (Merlin stealing Luna's food!), and leaving the place more spotless than we have ever seen it. Our other reviews explain how much our cats seem to love Elke and how well they are looked after whenever she sits for us. We are now comfortable leaving them (something I have always been slightly anxious about in the past) and feel like we can actually relax and enjoy ourselves when we know they are being this well looked after, and importantly we trust Elke wholeheartedly with our home. We would be absolutely delighted to have Elke sit for us any time and can't recommend her more.
We're so happy to have found Kim! She was great with our dog and it gave us really good peace of mind to know that he was in her care. Kim was also easy and nice to communicate with and we enjoyed the chance to get to know her. She left our house in great condition. We would recommend her to anyone and hope that she is willing to come back sometime!
