Thank you John and Catherine for looking after Wayne and our place. The house was beautifully looked after and lovely to return home to. There was even some freshly picked flowers to brighten up our arrival. Wayne was very content and I can tell he enjoyed his time with you. I appreciate both of you very much. You are first rate house and pet sitters.

Thank you J. Your support appreciated.
John and Catherine were great house sitters and would highly recommend. Our dog and cat were very settled and Paddington went on lots of adventures. Our house was spotless on return and all was in order. Great communication before the sit and photos while we were away.

Thank you for the support, appreciated.
John and Catherine were a fantastic choice. They kept in regular contact whilst we were away with photos of our pet to reassure us all was well. We returned to a lovely clean house. milk bread and eggs in fridge...very kind and thoughtful touch. We would definitely recommend them to anyone. It our first time using housesitters so we were a little apprehensive...but John and Catherine have certainly proved to us that we made the right decision. We wish them all the best in their future ... MORE

Thank you both for the support - and for all the suggestions for the great walks available in the district 😁
John and Catherine were exactly what we were looking for. Kind and caring for our dog Ollie, giving him the company and exercise he required. Communication was fabulous, the house was clean and tidy, and we felt relaxed and reassured while we were away. I would recommend John and Catherine to other home owners who are looking for a capable and reliable couple. I wish them all the best for future sits and would welcome them back any time.
