Reviews — Western Cape, South Africa

  • “Lusia looked after our French Bulldog, Leo and our cat, Raven, at our home, on two occasions when we went away on holiday. She was reliable and neat and our pets love her. She is gentle but able and took Leo on two walks every day. It would highly recommend Lusia as a pet sitter!”
