Testimonials
Highly recommended couple for house and animals
Karen and Clayton were just fabulous. They had quite a few challenges to deal with while I was away and they were so caring and thoughtful towards the animals and property. Lovely friendly couple who couldn't do enough. Highly recommend and they are welcome back anytime!
