John did an exceptional job looking after Maddie our very energetic Huntaway x pup, Tom and Gerry our cats plus 4 gold fish. For around a month, Maddie was walked for miles and along with the rest of the household pets she was feed and cared for in just the way we would have hoped. On return, our house was presented in a better state than before we left and over all we were delighted with John and our first experience with Trusted House Sitters. John....hope your international pet sitting adventures are going well. All the best Andy
