Housesitting for Bubble in Shropshire

It is my great pleasure to leave a testimonial for Claire. She arrived promptly and settled in well with my cat. Sadly his brother had died just a few days previously and I know he was missing the company. Claire took great care of him and gave him lots of cuddles when he wanted it. She was reliable and gave me an update part-way through the week to let me know how he was doing. The house was left in a clean and tidy condition on departure. I have no hesitation on recommending Claire to other home owners and would be delighted to have her return on a future occasion.

Great long-term sitter

Claire stayed at my apartment with my cats for 5 months while I was away. It was a lovely experience - she sent pictures almost daily and I was confident my cats were happy the whole time. She was very proactive about any issues with the apartment (maintenance, etc.) and she went above and beyond to send me items and take care of things while I was away. She even helped me sell items on marketplace as I was moving after her visit. I would definitely recommend Claire as a sitter to anyone looking - she is friendly, very reliable, and super flexible. I changed my plans several times and she was always very accommodating. Really lovely experience!

2weeks housesit with cats

Claire was really quick to confirm she could attend to housesit & kept in touch in the lead up. She arrived exactly on time and kept the house in really good order. She kept in touch with photos and messages whilst we were away and I could see the cats were relaxed and well cared for with her. Would definitely recommend her to others and would invite her to return if we are away again in future.

A great success!

Claire responded to a last minute need for a cat sitter. She booked her flight and arrived as promised. I was unable to meet her but my neighbour has told me what a charming lady and how neat and tidy she was. The apartment was left in a very good and clean state. She sent me updates and some lovely photos of our contented cat. Thank you Claire whom I can highly recommend.
