Third sit for us from Craig and Lesley. Like the previous two, the sit was straightforward from organising the sit, to arrival and right through the sit until we came home. We were kept updated throughout and when one of our cats unusually stayed out all night, they kept looking for her until she showed up again which really put our minds at rest. Craig and Lesley are very reliable, calm and a safe pair of hands. We’re so lucky to have them sit for us and highly recommend them! Thanks Craig and Lesley hope you can come back for a fourth sit 😊

Emma took excellent care of our dog and home while we were away. She communicated well in the lead up and during her stay, sending reassuring updates and lovely photos. Emma was flexible around arrival and departure time which was very much appreciated as we were travelling with a young baby. As soon as Emma entered our house she was fussing our dog and putting her at ease which was lovely to see. Emma clearly has a love of animals and we returned home to a very happy and relaxed dog. We highly recommend Emma as a Zeewoi.

Gillian was wonderful. Communication was great before, during and after sit. She sent photos of Luna with cute wee updates, I could tell Luna was very fond of her & they connected quickly. Gillian was very friendly & kind. The house was spotless on our return. I have already asked her back on a repeat sit. Five star sitter 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is Karen’s third visit. Robin loves her and she looks after her beautifully. I never worry about her care whilst I’m away. Karen is so considerate, the perfect guest and goes above and beyond to be accommodating. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

As before, we had an excellent experience by having Pearl and John looking after our family. Hugo and the kittens had been well looked after and our house was imaculate. Pearl and John have looked after our gang many times and we feel totally confident leaving them in their care.

As one will see from previous reviews we think Lorna and Ross are fantastic! When they are house sitting we leave in the relaxed knowledge that everything is in great hands. Sure enough we have returned yet again to find everything spick and span and the dogs in great fettle and very relaxed. Very happy to highly recommend them!

Thank you Dylan for your sit last week. You were very easy to communicate with, while being self sufficient and making sure Spyro felt looked after. We came home to a very chilled fella which I know means he's had a good weekend so thank you again!

Bogdan took care of our cats and our house for the second time. Communication was easy and we could set up everything very quickly as Bogdan already knew the house and the cats. The cats still seemed to remember him from 2 years before and they were quite trustful from the beginning. During our vacation he gave us regular updates with nice pictures of the cats. We were always reassured that the cats were fine and everything was in order at home. We came back to find two relaxed cats and a spotlessly clean house. We would not hesitate to recommend Bogdan as a sitter.

Rose & Michael have a tremendous back catalogue of great reviews: the reason is simple. They are truly fantastic house sitters! Thank you both for looking after Finn and Arthur so well. From the initial contact, through our video chats, our WhatsApp contacts prior to the sit, our 24 hr handover and then during the sit itself when for me the contact and updates from home were just right, Rose & Michael fully met and exceeded my expectations. They are caring, thoughtful and kind people. I travelled with full confidence Finn would be having a great time too - and so it proved. To top off the sit, I have returned to a sparkling house and two very happy pets. Thank you both again and do come back anytime!

"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!"

Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders.

As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way.

In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.

Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! 

I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. 

I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets.
After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc.
We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise.
Thanks again Nia

Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!

We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.

Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked.  She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country.   She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!

Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. 
I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.

Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat.  We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating).  She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.

Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.

Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for.   She is a very warm, open and diligent person  and our two cats adored her.  She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care.

She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind.
The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition.

We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
