As nervous first time house owners we were reassured by Josh from the start by clear communication and a good set of recommendations which he more than lived up to, he's a gentle and kind person. We had supper together before we left and our 2 cats took to him immediately: he sent us some pictures during the stay which clearly showed he is a cat whisperer! I don't think they missed us at all, but miss him now he's gone. Josh left the house in perfect nick, hard to know he'd even been here, he took good care of the place. He also watered the various pot plants outside so we came back to thriving greenery. Please don't tell our friends who often stay when we're away - but Josh was so much better and we'd love to have him back.
