Sophie looked after my elderly dog and cat for four days and they instantly took to her. She had a very calm quiet manner which put them at ease. Communication was excellent with Sophie responding to my requests quickly. She also kindly helped us by posting a key we urgently needed. We received photos and updates through the stay. Would book again.

Sophie was incredibly patient and flexible over the booking process (which was complicated due to some cat health issues that affected the booking times), and responded promptly and patiently to all my messages and my last-minute flailing around! Has been thoughtful, great with problem solving, communicative throughout, and took great care in staying with them during the sessions to ensure they’d had everything they needed, especially as one has been incredibly poorly lately. Has earned the trust of my two very finicky and anxious cats. Thank you Sophie!
