Bill has "sat" for us 4 times over the past 4 years and it has to be said that if he wasn't as in demand as he is, we'd have asked him to sit for us every time we've been away because he's one of the nicest, funniest, caring, and honest people we've had the good fortune to now make our friend His Love and care for our pets has been outstanding; he always keeps us in touch when we're away, with photos and messages, and he enjoys taking our dog out on amazing, fun, adventures. Our cat (Jimmy) has the privilege of sleeping on the bed with Bill and, as he's quite a demanding puss, gets all the attention he wants. We would recommend Bill for anyone who wants a thoroughly good person to look after their pet/s, home, and garden, without any hesitation Should anyone want to contact us we would be more than happy to chat Sincerely Barbara and Mike
