Tom and Patty were excellent pet sitters. They were very organised, communicated updates and sent pictures regularly. They followed all the instructions

Tom & Patty looked after Rachel Major’s pets & home

Patty and Tom take excellent care of my two dogs and home. I have a special needs dog, and their diligent care and respect for her wellbeing is so appreciated. They are true animal lovers; there is no limit to the number of games of fetch, cuddles or walks they are willing to give to the animals in their care. They have been incredibly flexible and accommodating to our schedule, offering to watch our two dogs over holidays and for extended periods. They are excellent house guests keeping the home tidy and organized, leaving everything in great condition. I could not recommend them more highly - they are the perfect option to care for your animals and home.
