Emily was with our pets Jimmy the cat and Carola, our dog for a 2 month stay while we were away in Spain. She was wonderful with them and they were well cared for and happy when we returned. Emily fell ill her first week sitting but we were able to send Carola to a local dog-walker/sitter for a few days while she rested and recuperated from a very bad flu. Jimmy stayed home and kept her company. Cats are easier to care for even when sick. The house was in order also with the aid of our housekeeper who helped out and knows exactly how and where things are kept and organized. Not speaking Italian may have been somewhat of an issue when problems arose but we have very helpful neighbors, hence the 4 star for self-sufficiency due to the language barrier. I'm certain she's perfectly self sufficient in English speaking situations. We did have an electrical problem when a fuse unexpectedly blew and a heating issue, both resolved within 24 hours or less. Unfortunately Emily was without heat during that time and we suggested she use the small space heater until the problem could be resolved. Always good to have emergency back-ups in place. I was able to reset the date/time for heating system with Emily by phone using whatsapp. We regularly received photos of her walks and park runs with Carola. Also photos of Jimmy snugggling up to her. The pets were obviously content during our absence and spoiled with brushings, treats and lots of love. Emily kindly bought us some breakfast foods when we returned which was very considerate. Emily is a reliable and attentive sitter. Your pets are in good hands with her!

Danni came with her boyfriend Jack and they were a delightful couple to have in our home with Basil. They settled in very quickly and, as there wasn't a lot of time before we had to leave, were very quick to 'learn the ropes' and get stuck in! Basil adored them and they were absolutely great with him too; the house was lovely and clean when we returned. We would highly recommend them and hope very much that they will return to us one day soon,

Thank you both for taking such great care of our animals and our house! 
I liked that you both took the time to meet the boys and get familiar with the house and their requirements. I appreciated you checking in with updates during your stay and the beautiful photos of the boys. I really felt at ease having you house sit, your honesty and reliability are 10/10. 
Will definitely reach out if we have more house sits, all the best with your move, keep in touch, Izzy
