If I could clone Nicole and Tim , I would so that others can have the wonderful experience we had after choosing them to look after our 2 cats and our home. Our initial contact was a positive one and arrangements were made to have Nicole and Tim arrive the day before we left in order to meet and go over routines . Before this sit we contacted them to see if they could do a weekend sit so we could go away for a couple of days. They were more than willing to work around our days and arrived for dinner the night before we were to leave. It didn’t take us long to realize we’d found the right sitters and great people. Off we went for a few days, returning to happy cats and a well looked after home. A week later Nicole arrived to begin the long sit. The cats quickly bonded to her and were exceptionally well looked after during our absence. Maybe even spoiled a tad. Happy cats! Nicole took great care of our home and we came back to find it in better shape than when we left. Plants were looked after both inside and out. Everything was in order: bedding and towels washed, folded and bed made. A lovely miniature orchid was on the counter. Nicole kept in touch while we were away with photos and anecdotes. We did not worry for a moment about the care of Delia and Juliet. I would not hesitate for a moment to have Nicole and Tim look after my pets. I highly recommend them and hope that someday they can do another sit for us.
Hyekyong and Jordi were fantastic sitters during our 3 week holiday. From the very start I picked up a very positive vibe from the emails we exchanged and they were always quick to respond to messages I sent. They were very flexible with their arrival and departure dates and times and asked lots of questions about our pets to make sure they provided the best care for them in our absence. They joined us for dinner before we headed off and we found them to be a very interesting and lovely couple. While we were away they kept us well updated with photos and stories of what our cats were up to and to reassure my husband his marine tank was still alive :) On our return we found the house lovely and clean and tidy, they had even replenished some bits of fresh food that I asked them to eat up :) I would highly recommend Hyekyong and Jordi for any future sits, your home and pets will be in good hands.
