Duika looked after George’s pets & home
Duika has been my friend for more than 30 years. She has stayed in my house many times. She is totally trustworthy, very well educated, very knowledgeable especially on matters of food and 100% reliable in looking after animals. She has looked after my cat on many occasions. While staying in my house, she looked after the cat and the house, kept everything clean, especially the kitchen area. She is a great cook and always cleans afterwards. She is an excellent gardener, and also looked after the garden while I was away. She is very friendly, gets on with the neighbours. I can recommend her most highly to anyone who needs a house or a pet looking after. You will have no worries.
