"Thank you so much for taking such good care of the house and car for us, for doing our airport transfers, and for the lovely food you prepared for our return! You did a great job. You are always welcome back, it's good to know that we now have two more lovely friends too!"
Sue and Jeremy. [Venetian house & car, Crete]

"Blue and Willow - the perfect pet and house sitters! Not only did they tolerate my kitten's playful nipping, but they got her through being neutered, and ensured my leaking roof was fixed when the heavens opened for 36 hours straight, while becoming fast friends with my best friends here! They also kept me updated with events while I was away for almost 11 weeks, and made a lovely supper to greet me on my return. Maybe they will come back some day. My only regret is that I didn't get to spend very much time with them myself!"
Sheila. [Villa with pool & car, Crete, Greece]

"We definitely want to book Blue & Willow again for next year! We know they'll do a great job, and take extra special care of our dogs and cats whilst we're away on our annual trip."

"We found Blue and Willow on the internet, I placed an ad for a house and dog sitter as I didn't want to put our two little westies into kennels, we had lots of interest, but instinctively took a liking to their reply, we spoke on the telephone for ages and knew that they were perfect for us and our dogs. Blue and Willow arrived the day before we left so we could introduce them to Mollie and Bob and go through their routine, likes and dislikes. We left the next day knowing that our dogs were going to be loved and pampered and well taken care of. The girls kept in contact with us during our 2 weeks away and gave us updates on the dogs and also emailed us some beautiful photos. We came home to a warm welcome and two very happy doggies, the house was cared for and our lawn was mowed too! We will definitely be leaving our pooches in the care of Blue and Willow again, every time we go away."

"Thanks to Blue & Willow for enabling us to enjoy a break from the smallholding. All the animals [dogs, cats, sheep, pig, chicken, geese, ducks & quail] appeared not to have missed us, which is as good a testimonial as you can get!"

"These two capable women arrived on time, got the measure of the house and garden, cared for the cat and made sure the house was clean on my return. It was lovely to come home to a warm, clean home and a happy cat. Job well done!"

"We were very pleased with the way Blue and Willow looked after our girls [a very naughty young Labrador, a very sweet natured Dalmatian and our African Grey Parrot]. My Dalmation is now a very sveldt young lady! We would recommend them as house sitters."

"I have known Blue & Willow for approx 4 years, knowing Willow as a friend, fellow member of Cornwall Athletics Club and as a client at my veterinary practice. They display open affection and understanding towards animals of their own and other peoples. I would be more than happy to leave any pets of my own in their capable hands."

"We have run a family home combined with bed and breakfast guest house for over seven years. The property also doubles as our family home, with twenty five free range chickens, ducks, turkeys, four labradors, a flock of black sheep, a pet ram and our children's hamsters. We have known Blue and Willow for over 16 years since we met them in our home village in Wales, they also later became tenants of a property of ours for a while. I have always found them to be lovely people, and above all, trustworthy and reliable. On previous occasions when we have been on holiday, they have looked after our premises and cared for our animals. It is clear that they are both animal lovers and greatly valued the wellbeing of our pets. They also successfully run our bed & breakfast business, and dealt with bed & breakfast enquiries, and due to this they have been booked by us to look after the animals and operate the bed and breakfast business for four weeks next year, they're part of the family now."

"Blue & Willow regularly care for Charlie, our Yorkshire Terrier, and our outdoor Cockateel aviary. In the past, they have cared for a rabbit and a guinea pig for us too. They happily take Charlie into their own home to care for him, and walk him, making him feel at home, and keeping us updated on his activities with fun picture messages by mobile phone, which is very reassuring and entertaining. They care for our home and garden wonderfully also, and have become great friends. They are our first port of call whenever we need care for Charlie, who is a sensitive soul with special medical and dietary requirements. Book them now whilst they still have slots free to sit for you, you won't regret it."

"I have known Blue & Willow for 19 years. They have worked for me in my business [managing the care of my holiday lets] and looked after my farmhouse, garden and animals several times whilst my husband and I were away on holiday, always very successfully. I have always found them to be reliable, honest and considerate, and they come highly recommended. They have become the greatest of friends, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to you."

"We found Blue and Willow by searching Google. We had booked a week’s holiday at short notice, and not wanting to use kennels for our cat and dog we were looking for someone to house/pet sit for us. Fortunately Willow and Blue were just finishing off a sit and could fit us in. From initial contact Willow and Blue filled us full of confidence that they were the right people for the job and they arranged to join us for dinner the day before we were flying out to go through everything and ensure our peace of mind. Two very special people, both trustworthy and honest, and very reasonable. Not once whilst on holiday did we worry about our pets or our house. We returned refreshed to be greeted with a delicious meal, a house cleaner than when we left and two pets who had been thoroughly cared for and completely unstressed. We would definitely recommend Blue and Willow to anyone and will certainly be using them again should they be available. We feel like we’ve made two new friends!"

"Many thanks for the great job you did looking after Leia last week. It was obvious when I returned from my skiing holiday how happy and well Leia was, she must have enjoyed your company so much, and also all the long walks and runs you gave her. I know what a challenge it is to look after an energetic and mysterious setter. You did really well. Also, it was a delight to return to The Retreat and find it in such immaculate condition [I wish I could keep it like that]. I will be in touch soon to arrange another stay."
