    Sophie was easy to reach before, during and after my vacation. She took good care of my cat during my vacation. When I got home, my cat was relaxed and my apartment looked tidy. I'm very satisfied. :-)

    My two tigers and I were very satisfied with the care. The two of them seemed very relaxed and it almost seemed as if they hadn't missed me. I was also regularly provided with information, photos and videos via WhatsApp. I would like to book again!
