Where do I begin in my compliments and praise of these most perfect pet/house sitters Andre' and Karine. It is a huge trust you put in people that you have only just met to care for your most cherished pet and home. Well, we took a leap of faith along with good feelings from our face time meeting and other reviews. We made the right choice with this lovely couple. They arrived with a delicious and healthy lunch for us to share while getting to know each other a little bit. We spent a couple of hours going over things around our home while Dickens followed along. Then we were on our way. They were very quick to absorb our instructions and special requests of caring for Dickens, plants and the house. We left feeling we covered everything and that all would be well cared for while away. Andre and Karine checked in with updates and photos every couple of days as we requested. They even had to deal with a bad storm that came through and let us know they had everything under control. When we returned after 10 days we walked into the warmest of welcomes. Fresh flowers, fresh baked breakfast cookies, a lovely fruit bowl, a hearty healthy soup in the refrigerator and a lovely gift of their local liqueur. Dickens greeted us in an affectionate, content manner. Not at all stressed about us having been gone. I think he probably misses Andre and Karine! On top of all of this our home was spotlessly clean and I am quite fussy about this! To sum all of this up Andre' and Karine gave us 100% peace of mind to take a beautiful and memorable trip. We can not thank them enough and all I can say is do not hesitate to invite them to sit in your home and care for your pets. You will be glad you did. Delightful people! Thank you both so very much!!
Adam, on his own, did a wonderful job of looking after Chester. He sent regular updates and looked after both house and pet in first class manner. Definitely recommend
