Rob and Melissa cared for our fur babies (buddy - 5 year old cocker spaniel and 2 little hamsters) whilst we were away for just over two weeks in august. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in fantastic care with them and I cannot recommend them more highly. If I could have them for every house sit, I definitely would. Sadly it’s a long flight for them. Buddy had lovely long walks everyday exploring the local area, come rain or shine (and there was a lot of rain this summer)! I gave Rob and Mel use of our car during the sit to make it easier for them to get about and run to the grocery store. The car was in perfect condition even after having a wet soggy dog in it. Plus the house was spotless and all our plants were well watered and happy which was lovely to come home too. The communication with them was first class right from the get go. From organising arrival dates to videos and pictures of Buddy (and some of the hamsters too) enjoying himself in their company whether it was snuggling on the sofa or taking a stroll. As a fur baby parent, I honestly couldn’t have felt more comfortable or at ease knowing that they were in such great hands during our vacation.
Gia and Gill are the loveliest people you could ever meet! We were so lucky to find them to take care of our Labrador Roscoe! So kind, reliable and most importantly of all, Roscoe adored them. Couldn’t recommend them enough! So much so we had them dog sit again whilst we were away. Will be sure to use them again! No need to look elsewhere, Gia and Gill are the best!
