Digby and Caroline were wonderful! Excellent communication before and during the sit. They took such great care of Sophie - indulging her with lots of cuddles, tennis ball time, and trips to the beach and park. The daily photos of my happy pup made me feel at ease while away. Digby and Caroline were also kind enough to ensure my home was immaculately clean upon my return. I would be delighted to host Digby and Caroline again in the future, and 100% recommend them as kind, considerate, and capable house and pet sitters.
Janie and Bruce were amazing pet sitters. I knew from their early communication that they would be a great fit for us. They were keen to communicate in person which was much the best way of agreeing the sit. Janie and Bruce were flexible and accomodating as we were making arrangements. They even took in their stride, the fact that we were unexpectedly plunged into our daughter's wedding arrangements the night before we left and only minutes after they'd arrived themselves. From the moment we met them it was clear that they have a natural affinity with animals. Janie quickly had our sometimes fiesty rabbit snuggling up to her and sitting quietly to be stroked. Bruce was suitably impressed by Deilah's tricks with nuggets and Delilah was clearly at home with them before we left. Whilst we were away Janie sent regular updates and was quick to clarify anything of which she was uncertain. Coming home, Delilah had clearly hardly missed us at all! Perfect. I would highly recommend them and hope we can persuade them to sit for us again.
