Testimonials
Wokingham house-sit
As an introduction to house and pet sitting I could not have asked for a more pleasurable assignment. The virus may have tried its hardest to scupper our best laid plans but we got there in the end and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to look after Bertie and Oli, Ann and Clive's gorgeous cats who would certainly win gold for purring! Not a hint of feline aloofness about these two brothers, they are so loving from the off. Ann and Clive live in a beautiful house literally bordering vast swathes of woodland/country park so being surrounded by greenery there is a very positive energy about the location. They are such a welcoming couple and even cooked me a delicious vegan meal upon my arrival, I felt very comfortable and the double en-suite room is an added bonus. There are meticulous written instructions regarding the pets and house plus information about the local area in a specially prepared folder and we kept in touch throughout. I am returning next month when I'll have the added enjoyment of looking after Livvy, Ann and Clive's dog plus Holly, their daughter's puppy -thoroughly looking forward to it. My first official house-sit was an absolute joy, do not hesitate to grab the chance to meet and look after this furry family, you're sure to enjoy it.
