We left Gay and Jim in charge of our newly refurbished house, and as a gay couple with very picky standards, they didn't let us down. They were delightful house sitters. We came home and everything was perfect! Neat, tidy and clean! They had watered the garden (we'd forgot to ask them to do it!) and they had even done our laundry! We also run our house as a location for filming. They liaised with the film crew that were booked to shoot and made sure everything ran smoothly. We would definitely ask them again. In fact we invited them to stay a bit longer and they have since been back to stay. We've enjoyed a good few evenings out as they are so friendly and so witty! We laughed a lot with them. We would recommend them unreservedly!
