Mark & Jude looked after Cyd’s pets & home
Mark and Jude have been my neighbours in west London for over 15 years and are a lovely couple who I can highly recommend for home and pet sitting. They show heartfelt love and care for all animals with a real affinity for dogs. They gave much care and love to their own elderly dogs, with Jude retiring early to spend more time with them, at a time of their life when they needed her at home. I have relied on Mark and Jude to take care of my own elderly, poorly and needy springer spaniel (the only people I trusted this to) and now she is gone, they are best carers (and house sitters) for my overly bouncy and energetic springer pup. I trust them both completely in giving exceptional care. They have been emergency short term fosterers for the Cinnamon Trust charity for the elderly and terminally ill, where they have taken in and fostered dogs at short notice if their owner was unwell, caring for the dog or dogs until they can be reunited with their owner, or if that is not possible until a new permanent home can be found for them by the charity. They are extremely well liked and respected in the local neighbourhood having owned a home there for 25 years. They are core members of the local community and are frequently trusted to take care of neighbours homes and can be relied on to keep an eye on elderly residents and those in any kind of need. Their own beautiful home is exceptionally well looked after and super clean and tidy - always. Not surprisingly therefore they show respect and consideration for the homes and property of others. You will find they are honest and trustworthy and you can rely on them to care for your pets and property enabling you to leave and travel worry free.
