Richard sat again for us recently and - as always - was the dream sitter! Our two cats were spoiled rotten (we know from the lovely photos and updates that we got) and the house was definitely cleaner than when we left! Richard even kindly restocked our wood supplies with some off cuts from neighbours which we were super grateful for him taking the initiative to do. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Richard!
Michael was a super cat sitter. He cared for my cats, Percy and Gizmo with genuine affection and devotion and they formed a real bond with him. He is a calm, gentle, generous-hearted man - one of few who is always willing to give, and asks for little in return. He stayed an extra couple of days and it was a pleasure to spend time with him. I would be delighted for Michael to sit for me again in the future, and wish him the very best with his next sits.
