  Ruben, Els and Abel looked after our house and animals for 5 weeks and they were brilliant! From our first communications they were always approachable and flexible, altering their travel plans to arrive a day early so that we had a good hand-over period. They are very warm, kind people and we felt confident that we were leaving our animals (3 dogs and a cat) in very good hands. They were very thoughtful, cooking lunch for us when we were frantically packing to try to leave and ensuring there was food in the fridge and a delicious meal for us on our return. Our dogs can be quite demanding in terms of requiring lots of exercise and lots of attention and it was obvious from the bond they had that they were really well looked after and very happy animals. It was great to receive photos via WhatsApp too while we were away. We live in a very rural location and they were happy and relaxed with that and very uncomplaining about the less modern aspects of our old farmhouse, (eg. they put up with very low water pressure for their last week without even mentioning it until we got home). I would thoroughly recommend Ruben, Els and their little boy, Abel especially to anyone who has precious pets who they want to receive the best possible care.

  Ruben and Els and little Abel were absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend them. they were my first house pet sitters - and were most sensitive to the care required for my dear old cat Hibou. And were most receptive to living in my rather "heath robinson" rural house - and grasped very quickly all the things you need to know. It was a rather chilly february when they were here which requires more effort - but they took on the challenge in the most delightful way. Lovely parents to their sweet little boy Abel who wasn't yet walking but I gather is now. Charming and intelligent and interesting couple. The house was spotless (much cleaner than when they came!) And so thoughtful of them to prepare a feast for my return! Hibou had been most beautifully looked after I am totally sure, and seemed very happy in their company. Communication before and after their visit was excellent which gave me total confidence to plan ahead.

  Ruben and Els and their lovely son Able were fantastic house and cat sitters. Communication was excellent throughout and they even made the effort to arrive a day early and stayed in a hotel so that the could meet with us. The house was left beautifully clean and tidy after they left. I now consider them friends and I wouldn't hesitate to have them to house sit again anytime. Thanks Ruben and Els!
