Jane and Richard were lovely hosts making us feel at home in there lovely home. The animals were amazing, Heidi the dog so smart and friendly. The 2 cats Whiskey and Joey very affectionate wanting lots of cuddles. The 2 horses Meme and Cass were well behaved I really enjoyed grooming them I felt very at home with them as missing having my own horses now. It was a great sit apart from the weather very enjoyable.

What a wonderful house sit! Jane and Richard made time to prepare and host a lovely dinner over which we got to know each other and their lovely pet family and shared all sorts of stories. We felt totally at ease in their home and company. We had the pleasure of caring for Heidi, Whisky and Joe who were the most friendly cats and dog .....and who made our stay super enjoyable. Jane and Richard live in a fantastic farm house in an amazingly beautiful location and their home is so welcoming, warm, comfortable, spacious and so easy to live in. We had some changeable weather but managed to visit the local areas as well as local walks with Heidi. Heidi is little gem to be with. She is super responsive, loves to play ball and frizby and has the sweetest nature. Joe and Whiskey were unbelievably friendly and loved their cuddles. Initially we were going to help out with the horses but Jane managed to get sorted. However by the end of our stay l think Dave had fallen in love with them and the idea of looking after them, especially after chatting to the ladies that came to put them in their stables. We shared lots of hellos when they were in the stables and it's very rewarding when your allowed to get close up. It was my birthday during our stay and Jane and Richard surprised me with a lovely gift of flowers. Very unexpected and very thoughtful and kind of them. Thanks sooo much! We loved our sit... Dave said he felt so relaxed and just loved being in such idyllic surroundings with the best ever cats and dogs !. We would love to return and would highly recommend this lovely house sit to all sitters in the uk and overseas. Thanks Jane and Richard kx

After I applied for this 2 cat, 1 dog sit Jane asked if I could look after her 2 horses also. I'm always up for new experiences and she made it sound so easy, so I gave it a go. Unfortunately, it's not really for me! The house, dog, cats and Richard & Jane are lovely so would recommend to a horse lover / someone who likes a very physical start to the day! :)

Jane & Richard welcomed us into their cosy and clean home and gave some great recommendations for places to visit locally. It was a pleasure to look after Whiskey & Joey. Both boys were easy going and love head rubs and chin tickles. We managed to fit in some lovely walks in the area too.

Jane & Richard have a lovely home & made us feel so welcome . We looked after Cas & Mimi the horses & Whiskey & Joey the cats . Mucking out and transferring to & from the paddock brought back childhood memories . Heidi the dog was away walking with them both . We have made great friends with them both & sure to meet up again very soon when visiting family in Lincolnshire . Can’t wait to meet the new arrival ( Mimis foal) in the summer . Thank you again & see you very soon Xx
