Ruth was amazing. This was our first experience using any outsourced pet/housesitter and Ruth gave us confidence from the start. She was happy to meet us

I have known Ruth for sixteen years and in that time she has often minded my house (including pets) whilst I have been away. I have also travelled overseas with her and found her to be a great travelling companion. She is reliable, honest, clean, tidy and extremely organised. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone seeking a house sitter. Your house and pets would be in great hands with her.
