We were in need of a cat sitter and after reviewing Clare's profile we made contact. Clare's communication was responsive and we agreed on dates for cat sitting. Clare met with us prior to our holiday. We introduced the cats and discussed other key requirements all were noted. Clare looked after the cats, fish, plants and rubbish and gave us daily updates and photos of the cats. No issue with keys or alarm. We would be happy to use Clare again and trust her to look after our house and pets.

Neil was a fantastic cat sitter for our cats over the festive period. He was excellent at communicating with us, sending us photos of the cats every day to reassure us and left everywhere in amazing condition. We truly lucked out with Neil and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a cat sitter in the area. Not only this, but Neil has such a friendly and sunny disposition making it extremely easy to get on with him and is a natural animal lover. In future, we will be booking with Neil whenever we need a catsitter!
