Pet Sitting in Cherval

Crème de la crème! Hands-down John and Susan were masterful caring for Karma our 8 year old Airedale who has quite the personality. They came a day early to review procedures and get acquainted with the house. They were exceptionally thorough, asked a lot of questions to gain clarify and to ensure expectations were met. And they were, in fact, they exceeded expectations! They managed Karma as if they were an extension of me. They sat with her in the middle of the night for hours during a thunderstorm. They cleaned and bathed her after she rolled in poop. They played relentless search games with her and took her for long walks daily. She looked like a happy girl in all the pictures. When we arrived back home, the house and gardens were immaculate. The plants were thriving quite well. John and Susan are amazing individuals all around They are fun to converse with, comfortable and easy to get along with, interested and interesting people. I highly recommend them for any kind of a sit with or without pets. I’ve already asked them to come back if they find themselves needing a place to stay, they’re always welcome!

We cannot thank Jenny and Glynn enough for the care they took of Tui and our home, enabling us to have a wonderfully relaxed trip. They are utterly professional whist being lovely warm friendly people. Efficient, calm, organised, tidy, considerate, we could not have left our home and precious dog in better hands. Nothing phased them.( tree down in the storm). Jenny cooked us a lovely lunch before we left and then left the most delicious supper on our arrival home. They were packed and left after handing over leaving us to settle back in. They sent lovely photos and news of Tui ( who had a wonderful time and was beautifully looked after). It was a pleasure to get to know them and we look forward to keeping in touch. Thank you Jenny and Glynn!

I highly recommend Adriana! Our cat wasn't in a huff at all when we get back and we had a message or a photo every day to see it sleeping with her...So really good! The turtle, the garden and the swimming pool are also very well. The house is really, really tidy and they let us some food for this morning (we came back during the night). She even wash the terrasse and some windows in the kitchen! Before leaving, we share a dinner and it was a really nice evening. So do not hesitate to welcome Adriana and Richard in your house! Thank you Adriana!

Julia was very kind and gentle with our two dogs and they sensed her sweet personality immediately. She arrived on time, took in all the information we gave and took the dogs out on her own to get to know them, which went very well. We returned to find the dogs well cared for and the house clean and tidy. Thank you Julia. We really appreciated your care and time.

We were very happy to welcome Susan and Peter back to our place for a second sit. Our usually very shy cat remembered Susan and was happy to see her again, we were able to get away stress free. When we returned we found everything beautifully clean and tidy and one very happy cat. There was an incident where our boiler failed and required attention from the technician. Fortunately Susan is able to speak French and had the problem solved within 24 hours. Susan and Peter made a (very entertaining) video on how to do a boiler reset, which we greatly appreciate! We would highly recommend Susan and Peter as house and pet sitters, they are reliable and trustworthy and communicate extremely well and we would welcome them back here in the future.

Ann was an amazing sitter! Our cats were so well looked after, and the house was perfect on our return. Excellent communication too. Ann is also a really interesting person, and we felt we had made a new friend. We would love to have her back any time. Thank you Ann!

Mike and Debbie were brilliant sitters .I could see from the start that the dogs would be very happy .They looked after the dogs so well and my cat and had lots of cuddles and lovely walks .They were very good company two and enjoyed a couple of evenings with them . My house was immaculate on my return and had a lovely dinner waiting for me . I highly recommend them .

Great experience! Diana took very good care of our kitties and our dog. She left our house very clean and gave us regular updates. We would love to have her back anytime!

Cecilia and Eric were wonderful housesitters. Ollie became attached to them very quickly, and I could tell he was being well looked after. He enjoyed his long walks, runs with Eric and evening cuddles on the sofa. Communication was excellent, I was sent lots of photo and video updates and the house was left clean and tidy. They kept my many vegetable beds and trees well watered and I even arrived back to delicious home made Argentinian empanadas! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Cecilia and Eric. Thanks, and enjoy the rest of your Portugal adventure this summer.

Kelvin was a Godsend! I was coming and going from home to England , and Italy and Kelvin settled in so well. as he is such a tough athlete with his bike and running shoes, he would sprint,walk or cycle the 7kms to my garden to feed Tom,Gingernuts and Tigger and the 2 baby tortoises now in their garden pen. He is very self sufficient and explored the Hérault valley on his bike. Very calm, very quiet we would be able to work alongside each other in my office area or upstairs living area. Stan was very smitten by Kelvin and for that I was always grateful. I would love him to return one day!
