Monica was our first house sitter so we were new to the experience. We couldn’t be more delighted with how it all went. Monica went out of her way to honour

Thank you so much to Monica for saving my sanity!! My original sitter had canceled 3 days prior to my trip. At the same time Charlie was still in hospital

Monica was an absolute lifesaver and she was a wonderful sitter. The house was immaculate, bedding was washed and back on (which was not expected at all)

Monica Springfield looked after Karin-Esther Pretorius’s pets & home

I have known Dr Springfield for over ten years. She is a highly competent professional that housesits for me and always goes beyond what I expect of her: • She housesits my home for four weeks at a time and has done so multiple times. • She takes time to water my garden and pot plants. • She keeps my home tidy and clean when my Staff is off duty. • She assists with access for my Staff. • She ensures the Security systems are operational at all times. • Dr Springfield houses my pets (cats & dogs) on multiple occasions and does not hesitate to do so. Dr Springfield is unbelievable with animals, and my animals love her tremendously, especially my one Cat, Michael-Angelo. He was very ill at one point and needed around-the-clock looking after, which she did without asking or hesitation and ensured he received his medication. I would recommend her to any homeowner for housesitting for them without hesitation.
