Karen very kindly stepped in to do our sit at short notice after the sitter we had previously booked cancelled. She came over to meet us and Nellie before the sit and took all our domestic information and instructions for Nellie in her stride. Karen communicated well with us before, during and after the sit, and most importantly, she bonded very well with Nellie who clearly enjoyed being at home with her. The house was spick and span when we returned from holiday, and all my many plants well watered - no mean feat in a heatwave! Karen is cheerful and calm and has a sense of humour! I would throughly recommend her as a sitter, and hope that we will be able to have her again. This was the first time we had had a housesitter, and from our point of view it was a great success.
