I cannot begin to praise Emma and her partner Jonnie for the love care and compassion they showered upon our dogs. Add to the mix that they were suddenly landed with two very young pups that my dogs found on their morning walk and suddenly their lives were turned upside-down ...in a nice way . From the moment I met them (Skype call first) to the day the arrived, I knew I had made the perfect choice for my three month vacation... my four dogs bonded immediately and within the two days prior to my departure everything seemed to fall into place. I was driven to the airport, which was a great start to my long travel, and greeted promptly upon my return. Emma was excellent in providing updates on the dogs to reassure me and when they had issues IE no power to the house, (Plus others) they were able to deal with it and cope admirably. Upon my return the dogs were fit, happy, healthy and relaxed...plus the two puppies (which have settled in) were a joy to see. From the tiny scraps that they were when found Emma and Jonnie had reared them into fit healthy little girls.... The house was immaculate, as was the garden, pool, house plants and my car was sparkling...(cleaner than i keep it)...The fridge was stocked with fresh fruit and vegetables and even though my flights were delayed by twelve hours it was not a problem for them...A large red wine was waiting for my return which was just what I needed ... The following day a beautiful meal was prepared for us all before having to say goodbye ...All in all a fabulous couple who are welcome to our home anytime.
Once again Kelly did a great job caring for my kitties. She sent sweet photos and kept in touch with me which is always reassuring when I’m far from home. She was kind, considerate and conscientious. Kelly also left my home so clean. It really made my return home after a long trip a gentle landing.
