Our experience

10+ years

I, Carin, grew up on a farm in South Africa. Naturally, animals and pets were always a part of my life. I had both furry and feathery friends. I fed lambs with bottles, raised baby kittens by hand, looked after chickens and had dogs as

We cannot thank Charles & Carin enough. It was like having family over to laugh out loud after our Tilly and our home. They were excellent in every aspect!

Carin dog sat for us in our home for two weeks. She was very reliable and organised. She made sure she knew how to work all the appliances before we left. She took our email so she could contact us if there were any queries. She was self sufficient - bringing all her own toiletries and towels. She only ate her own food and kept the kitchen neat and tidy. She left the house nice and clean and had stripped her bed and washed the bedding. From the dog sitting side of things, Carin asked what our routine was and said she would try to keep as close to that as possible. She wrote and told us how things were going with our dogs, which we appreciated. Our dogs obviously loved her because they went into the spare bedroom after she left looking for her! In short she looked after our dogs and our house as if her own. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
