Melissa and Rod were an absolute pleasure to host. They were clean, respectful and took care of our cat Frankie beautifully. They were great communicators

Melissa & Rod looked after Freya’s pets

Melissa and Rod are great pet sitters. Always very friendly and ready to take on any tasks required. My bunnies were well loved and spoilt in their care which helped put my mind at ease whilst traveling.
