Mavis did an excellent job looking after our home and cats. She is a lovely lady and we wouldn't worry about using her, thank you

I would ask Mavis again and again to come house sit. Molly (our dog) adores her and is very settled in her company. Mavis is thoughtful and caring when she stays in our home. The house is always immaculate when we return and she has often carried out small duties we haven't asked for simply because she cares and can see they need doing. But most importantly she clearly loves Molly and treats her as she would her own. I am confident when we are away that our house and pet are in very capable hands and have complete peace of mind. Mavis is always our go to person if ever we go away.
