Testimonials
Wonderful 4+ Months Sit for Penny & Simon
We looked after Simon & Penny's home for just over 4 months in the winter/spring of 2017. They invited us to arrive early to meet them, introduce us to neighbors/friends and, most importantly, review all that we needed to know in order to have a successful sit. During their travels, they stayed in contact with us via email & weekly Skype calls in order to go over incoming mail as well as discuss any questions that we had. For part of the sit, they had a construction crew working on their back deck and and we sent updates to help us ensure it was properly completed. Their home is comfortable and well equipped; yard work was just mowing & a bit of weeding, all simple tasks. Simon & Penny are lovely people and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting for them. Heather & John
