Thank you so much Tara for taking such great care of Minx and my new kitten, Socks. It felt very reassuring to know that you were able to spend time with my cats. As before, you showed my cats great care and affection and spent time checking they were fed and watered, litter tray cleared and pkayed in the garden. Loved watching the video clips back after I got home from work. Made me smile and laugh! Thank you again, much appreciated. Marie Callanan

Oh my goodness! How lucky are we to have found Tara to look after our beautiful old Fatty! He's a very vocal Bengal and he's certainly not shy about telling you what he wants! But Tara "got" him immediately and clearly bonded with him, which made us feel very comfortable leaving him be cared for by Tara in our absence. We received daily updates, photos and videos (which were absolutely brilliant!) and made us feel even more grateful to have found such a brilliant, caring person. Oh, and on our return, the place was absolutely spotless! So grateful to Tara and we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her as a first class stand in cat mummy

As always, very reliable and flexible. We had a relaxing holiday knowing that our loved pets were in very capable hands during that heatwave.
