This is the second time Nicola has sat for us with our 3 cats. We cannot recommend her enough. The house was cleaned and she had even restocked some basics to ensure we could enjoy a drink and snack on our return. The cats obviously trusted and felt safe with her as shown by the photos she sent of them sitting on her lap. We don’t hesitate to recommend her and will be using her again.
Moira and Paul were wonderful house sitters for our beloved Roxy while we were away visiting family for 5 days. They arrived the day before so we could show them our routine in caring for Roxy and watering the garden. We shared a BBQ dinner with them on the night they arrived where the conversation flowed easily. I felt very confident on leaving them in charge while we were away. On our arrival home, Roxy was happy, content, well cared for and obviously happy to see us. Moira and Paul said they loved staying in our home and loved Roxy. The house was neat and tidy, floors vacuumed and plants well looked after. Moira had also stripped and re-made the guest bed. We were kept well informed on how Roxy was coping without us, sending a photo of Roxy relaxed on Paul's lap. We found both Moira and Paul lovely, kind and honest people and would have them back again in a heartbeat.
