Ros and Ian were just perfect. We easily took contact with them and they took great care of the Cats, flat and plants. Thank you!

Ros & Ian were such a blessing to have in our home in our absence! I was able to contact them easily whilst away and experienced an immaculate and peaceful home coming. Our 7 budgies and one crazy wild turkey were well looked after as well. I hope that I have the pleasure of their visit again in the future. I highly recommend them and thank them from the bottom of my heart!
