Here's what they are saying about us.......
".....I can honestly say you were the
luckiest find ever! I am so grateful to you for looking after all of our
tribe - I know they can appear daunting when you first meet them but
you seemed so relaxed about
them that I never worried about them once!
I loved receiving your funny e mails
though - it made me feel they were all part of the holiday - and have
said to several people that when we came home it was as if we had never
been away - which is the biggest compliment I
can pay you ! My dogs are very special to me, as Hannahs' are to her so
we are very grateful for the brilliant care you gave them. Paddy has
lovely ears again thanks to you! They all seem so relaxed and chilled -
almost as if they had had a sunny holiday
themselves!....." Jenny Savage, Ilfracombe, UK
"....Residing in the South of France and loving to go on African Safaris
it became a problem with finding someone reliable to look after our
house, Jackson the greyhound and Ellie the Doberman after we moved here
to France. We found out about Della and Tracy (D&T), from their web
and met up with them at the house . Everyone got on well together and so
in October we left for Africa. Three weeks later we returned and they
had done a wonderful job - even ran us to and from the Airport. We four
can thoroughly recommend D&T as long as they are free to "sit
for us" - already booked them for 2012...."

"Boo and Ted very much enjoyed being spoiled by their aunties Tracy and
Della while mum and dad were on holiday!! We were away for 2 months
which is the longest we have ever been away and felt terrible leaving
the cats for so long. Our concerns were eased so much on meeting Tracy
and Della and throughout our trip we were delighted that we had left Boo
and Ted in such loving, capable hands. We were updated regularly and
found hearing the antics of Ted and Boo very reassuring as we were safe
in the knowledge that at home it was definitely situation normal.
Sadly
both cats were a bit poorly while we were away, but Tracy and Della
handled it very professionally and we knew the cats were being treated
just as well as if we were there.
We are so pleased to have found Tracy and Della, and all four of us will look forward to seeing them again soon...."
Tanya Garrett - Bristol, UK
...."I
would like to say a massive thank you for the outstanding job you did.
The place was immaculate and horses were more than happy. It was so
relaxing knowing you were looking after them and I can honestly say I
didn’t worry at all - Joey
came trotting over when we got there I can’t remember the last time he
did that so what ever you’ve been doing please tell all!!!! I forgot to
remind you that he nips so I hope he didn’t catch you those teeth of
his can hurt. So glad you got on with them both and I hope they behaved for you.
A big thank you once again...." Cheryl Bowen, Bristol, UK
...."We have a country house
and land in South West France with 6 dogs, 4 cats and a horse, so going
on holiday can be a nightmare. This is the first time we have used
Della as a house/pet sitter, and we couldn't be more impressed and
recommend her highly enough. So much so that she is already booked in
for our next holiday..." Martin Collyer, Le Bugue, SW France
"Hi, just wanted to say hello and a Huge Thanks for looking after 'our
girls' Molly & Mildred so very well. It was the first time I have
been able to go away and not worry about the girls. From our first
contact via e-mail and telephone you were most helpful and professional
and having returned from our holiday it was a joy to see the girls so
obviously well looked after and loved. Not only were the dogs in
excellent form but so were the chickens, garden and house immaculate. I
cannot recommend you both highly enough and we are all looking forward
to seeing you both again. Thank. I hope your new adventure goes
well and at least you have something to count if unable to sleep! The
girls told me you were great and they send their licks! Many thanks once
again and all the very best for you both. Nics, Dave, Molly, Mildred, Margo, Five & Six !"
Nicola McNally, Sudbury, Suffolk, UK
"Dear Tracy and Della,Thank
you both so much for looking after our animals and business to enable
us to take a break away this summer. WE have never felt so happy to
leave them with anyone before, and feel they have all been very well
‘loved’ in our absence – I know they will welcome you back with ‘open’
paws! Running a campsite as well we realise was a new challenge for you
and we are impressed with how smoothly everything has gone. You have
been left some lovely comments in our visitor’s book too. Many thanks, Tamzin, David, Joe and Ollie – 3 dogs, 1 cat, 2 ponies, too many sheep, and lots of chickens (and 2 ducks!)
Mr & Mrs Whittingham, Hidden Spring Vineyard, Horam, East Sussex, UK
"A big thank you to Tracy and Della for taking such good care of Dylan, our lovable but ageing dog, while we took a much needed holiday.... we were a bit concerned
about leaving him for a whole week as he had only ever been left with
someone for one night in the 14 years we have had him - kennels was not
an option. We should not have worried - Tracy and Della have really
looked after him and given him lots of fuss. He was completely at home
with them, you could see from his body language
that he would happily have stayed with them if we had decided to turn
around and take another weeks holiday!.......Also I have to say the house was
spotless when we returned and thank you so much for doing the laundry.
We have no hesitation in recommending Chez Vous
services in either looking after your pets or your home - they take excellent are of both".
Mr & Mrs Paternoster,Pewsey,UK
"Thank
you both for looking after Jemima, Minnie and Myrtle and our home so
beautifully and thank you also for the equally beautiful orchid - as
you gathered Christine loves them and it was a very kind thought. We
have had hit and miss experiences with sitters over the past few
years and, at long last, we feel we have scored a bullseye! "Bruce & Christine Chalmers, Goring by Sea, UK

".....house looks amazing, thank you so much....Duke & Smudge both very well....it was so lovely for Jane and I to head off knowing the house and pets were in such good hands....."
Drs Chris & Jane Holmes, Wolvercote, Oxford, UK
"In May this year we had the normal dilemma, we're going on holiday
and we're going to have to ask the neighbour to feed the cats. The
problem this time was we were going to be away for two weeks and as we
both now work from home the cats were used to company at all times and
free reign inside and out. So we trawled
through the endless amounts of house sitting agencies and started to
become very disillusioned by the uninterested people on the end of the
phone. After thinking we just wouldn't bother I
stumbled across Chez Vous and sent Tracy and Della a garbled email
explaining our situation.
Well they have been a
gift sent from above, happy to answer any silly question and showed a
keen interest in our cats Bob and Poppy. We
were nervous when they arrived the night before our holiday but we
shared a nice meal and bottle of wine and they put us at ease right
away. The ladies updated us whilst we were away and we came home to very content cats and our house just as we like it. Tracy and Della are now booked for our next holiday and we don't make any plans unless we know they are available.
Please
feel free to contact us for a verbal reference ( the ladies have our
number), and enjoy your time away from home knowing you have left it in
the best hands".

"Dear Della and Tracy,
I just want to say a big thank you for taking
such great care of Harriet and our home. It was terrific to come home
last night and find Harriet so happy and our house so clean! Della, you
are like a fairy. Harriet was so well cared for. I know she had a good
time with you and it was so much less traumatic for her. Thanks so very much!!!!.......You and your service are terrific. I hope you can come again! Hopefully next time Tracy can come too." Most sincerely, Jacqueline and the gang
Mr & Mrs Drotar, Geddington, UK
"Thank you so much for looking after our home and 2 cats whilst we
were away, we had great peace of mind knowing you were there and your
regular updates ensured that we had a wonderful stress-free holiday.
Considering how antisocial Ash and Jess usually are we were very
impressed that you became great friends!! The house was immaculate when
we returned - again meaning a stress-free return from holiday! We
would certainly recommend you to anyone requiring a house sitter and
look forward to using you again in the future, Best wishes and thanks".
Mr & Mrs Edmonson, Ellon, Scotland
"Having four dogs is not easy. It is not something that we
planned; it just happened by accident. Lovely as they are, they
inevitably restrict our freedom, and kenneling them is not really an
option, as all of them have been either homeless or at refuges at some
stage of their lives. Not only this, we have a property that is quite
isolated and had already been burgled once; and once is enough! So what
to do? Well, the obvious answer is a pet and house-sitting service,
which is where Tracy and Della come in.Confident and business-like, yet at the same time
dog-crazy, in they came, making friends with the dogs and sending us on
our way with a cheerful wave, despite the un-Godliness of the hour. We
were offered the choice of being contacted every day with an update, but
we were so happy to leave our dogs in their care, that we declined. We
arived home to a spotless house and 4 happy dogs; who had been spoiled
rotten and can't wait for us to go away again so that they get to spend
time with their new best friends!
Highly recommended!"
Mrs Rowan Gwillim, Carcassonne, France
"Della & Tracy were recommended by a neighbour and friend. I have 2 dogs, a large male labrador and a smaller, female French hunting dog (rescue). Della & Tracy took excellent care of my precious pets, playing with them, grooming them and feeding and exercising them in my absence. Not only were my pets well cared for but it was lovely to return to a spotlessly clean home. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will be using their services regularly in the future."
Paul Porter, Cassagnes Begonhes, Aveyron, France.
"Hi both,
Well, here we are, home again after a wonderfully quick and easy journey. A
huge thank you to you both for the excellent way you took care of our
home and beloved animals. Everything was in such good order here, and
the dogs and Bruno are happy and relaxed and obviously had wonderful
care and attention lavished upon them in our absence.
Sincere thanks again, from us both, for the professional way you
handled the running of the villa and for the excellent care the pets
received. In the past, I've often wasted time worrying about home whilst
we've been away, but I really felt that on this trip, with you both in
charge, I could enjoy our break and relax.
Huge thanks from us both, and loving licks and purrs from the four-leggeds.
Very best wishes,
Vicky & Bob".
