If we could give more than a 5 star review we would. Glenn & Laurel are the perfect pet and house sitters. It is their second sit for us (just wish they were available every time) and Tuppy was so excited to see them again. Animals tell no lies! As much as we leave a list for Housesitters to follow, Glenn & Laurel leave a list of all the things they’ve done for us, albeit in a relatively short time. Glenn is a qualified Electrician and a great handyman and doesn’t hesitate to ask if there is anything that needs to be done. He is also great on finding things to do. Laurel kept the house immaculate and loved walking Tuppy twice a day. We have a very large garden and lawn which looked as good when we returned as when we left. We would 110% recommend Glenn & Laurel to any housesit. They are reliable, have excellent communications skills and are simply a really nice couple to welcome into your home.
David and Maria were excellent dog and house sitters! We organised a meeting prior to the sit and felt very comfortable and decided quickly to choose them. They also were happy to stay one night prior, which allowed us to go through in-depth, some of the requests for our fairly fussy pooch, like where she likes to walk, what she eats, her habits etc, which they were happy to oblige. Whilst away, there was always good communication through WhatsApp and we received some pics and short videos of a very happy dog. They have great attitudes and are very flexible and we have secured them for another longer sit later this year, so we highly recommend them. Lastly, we could see how affectionate (and relaxed) our dog was with them both - so thank you David and Maria!
