We were so grateful to Polly for offering to housesit for us at relatively short notice when we managed to secure a week with some friends in Wales at the end of September. We have 3 dogs (2 spaniels and a terrier) and 3 chickens, and live in a very rural setting. Polly and Mamadou were brilliant, a dream team. They settled in immediately, and they managed to cope with sheep in the garden, an unscheduled day-long blackout, and keeping dogs exercised, garden watered etc. We came home after a much needed break to an immaculate house and happy dogs and chixs. Thank you both !
Tara and her lovely family housesat for me over Easter, looking after my indoor ragdoll cat, Blue. Blue was very well cared for, and enjoyed cuddling up with them in the evening. I don’t think he missed me at all! The house was spotless on my return; I can thoroughly recommend Tara and Samuel as housesitters and would certainly invite them to housesit again.
