simon looked after Gill’s pets & home
I have known Simon for six years and he has always been exceptionally reliable, polite and, most importantly, absolutely caring and loving to my two golden retrievers. Simon has also worked on the house and all work is carried out in a careful and professional manner; whilst being incredibly caring, patient and interactive with the goldens who consider they are trying to help! I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon to you for housesitting. The utmost care for your home would only be excelled by his loving care of your pets.
