We have just arrived back from our holidays and we were so pleased that we left Jim and Carolyn in charge of our dogs and our home. I cannot recommend them highly enough, I'm sure anyone that they sit for will feel the same. They bonded with our dogs immediately and took particular care to note what we explained about their personalities and habits. Our dogs came number one during their sit and when they left our dogs were crying. On the house side, everything was left spotless and I came back to find my (many) houseplants thriving. We have planted more trees in the garden that needed water and they looked after these trees beautifully. We were kept updated with photos of the dogs so were confident that they were in good hands. Carolyn and Jim are a lovely couple. It was a pleasure to meet them and have them in our house. 100% happy. Helen
Jessica is a five star individual across the board. She is easy to communicate with, trustworthy and responsible, loves animals, and we were so fortunate to have her take care of both our home and our beloved kitty. Jessica communicated daily with us and sent adorable pictures and videos of our cat. She shovelled our walk and came prepared for all types of weather (important this time of year), kept our house clean and tidy, and adjusted to a major time zone change quickly. We truly hope we can book her again and again. We feel blessed to have met her and have her stay in our home. Our cat, who can be skittish and needy when we return , was totally relaxed and calm. Clearly, all of his needs were met!
