Nessa and her friend Tasha came to our house for a week to look after our Greyhounds Jasper and Ace.
Before we met there was excellent communication from Nessa.
We found them both to be very friendly and kind and Jasper and Ace warmed to them immediately.
Whilst we were away Nessa gave us lots of updates of their walks etc and nice photos most
… read more days. we were very happy that they were being given a high level of care and very grateful to Nessa for administering Jaspers medication. On our return, the dogs were very happy and contented and the house was spotless.
I have no hesitation in recommending Nessa she is certain to look after your pets and house very well. Thank you both so much and we hope you can come back some time!

I stayed at Gillian's house for six days, and had a wonderful time! She is really nice, accommodating, and easy to talk to, and Jasper is the sweetest. Her home is in the most beautiful location, and I enjoyed taking nature walks and soaking up the sunshine. I visited some towns nearby too, and found some sweet little spots to have coffee and ice
… read more cream. She left me with paint and supplies to paint the kitchen, and it was easy work! I just played an audio book and spent a couple of afternoons painting. I would absolutely recommend this workaway.
Thanks again, Gillian! Give Jasper some love for me.You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

I had a wonderful time staying in Gillians home and looking after the beautiful Jasper. We were lucky enough to get some really good spring weather, so walking around the surrounding woods and castle was very enjoyable. Jasper is a sweet soul and very loving. Gillian is a very hospitable host and made my stay very welcoming. Thanks again Gillian

Gill and Jasper are couple of great beings. Jasper is easygoing doggie. It was wonderful to look how happy he is and that he finally found a perfect loving home. I wish all dogs would get at least a pease of this big love what Gill gives him. Gill treated us as we would be her guests. I had a beautiful time and I’ll be happy to come back one day
… read more and see how are you guys doing. And last but not least - the place is just beautiful, close to the natureYou can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

She is incredibly thoughtful, kind, interesting and practical and looked after my dog and painted my bathroom to highest of standards. It was an absolute pleasure to have her in my home and she is welcome here anytime. Thank you so much Aneta xxx
