Julie and Jake are exceptional pet sitters. They were extremely flexible in planning their arrival time around our departure, and came over the previous evening for a full 'induction' and lovely chat. They are super friendly and sweet, and Percy and Luna took to them immediately. We received daily updates with photos and videos, including comical scenes of the cats playing treasure hunt games and sitting on Jake's laptop (clearly they were spoilt rotten! 😂). I felt extremely at ease knowing that the cats were being cared for by Julie and Jake. They dealt with a little kitty-puking with no drama, and we arrived back to an immaculately clean apartment. They had even replaced loo roll and a few other ideas which they had used (so kind, really not an expectation!) and left us some chocolate and a nice card! Communication was excellent both before and during the sit, but also not excessive (they used common sense to solve any small issues, and tried not to pepper us with questions during our holiday, which was appreciated). Julie and Jake are an extremely generous, kind and genuine couple and I have no hesitation in recommending them as pet sitters.
