Wonderful to know Coco was in capable hands. Philippa and her family looked after the house brilliantly and even mowed the lawn ready for our return which was fantastic in April! They left lovely homemade puddings in the fridge for our return and the kitchen was full of beautiful tulips. We wish them all the best for their adventures in Italy.

Phillipa house and dog sat for us during the February half term. She was immediately comfortable with the house handover, and during our holiday she sent us a few short updates on the dogs. On our return we found the dogs to be in excellent shape, and the house beautifully cared for. Phillipa had cleaned , remade beds, and put fresh flowers throughout. It was a joy to come home to. We really could not have asked for a better person to care for our home and dogs. Sean Sutcliffe

We could not recommend Philippa (and her family) more highly. We came home to find three extremely happy dogs who had all obviously been given excellent care and attention. Gertie and Tarka had loved long walks whilst Strudel our 14 week old puppy could not have asked for more patience and affection. I don't think any of them had missed us for one moment!The house looked immaculate when we came back and all sheets and towels had been washed. We can't wait to go on holiday again!
