Claire
Providing Pet Sitting in the Rockbourne, United Kingdom
UK Professional Couple Wishing To See More Of The World!
Fabulous, Faultless Five Star sitters! We were treated to daily photos, videos and anecdotes about our much loved pet, which our whole family could access, and we had absolute confidence that our dog was being loved and cared for as always. It was as if a family member was at home. Local friends saw them out on walks and our dog always looked happy, under control and well cared for. We didn’t meet this lovely couple unfortunately, but they were totally reliable and communicated efficiently to advise of their arrival and departure times, they are super organised and didn’t ask any unnecessary questions. The house was spotless on our return despite the fact our dog moults at this time of the year, all areas were thoroughly clean and tidy, and we had a helpful handover note. We couldn’t have asked for more, and don’t hesitate to recommend Claire & Mike!

Pet-loving freelancer seeking to explore Bristol before relocating.
Superb house and cat sitter. We had no qualms at all in leaving Tim in charge. Toby loved him and everything in the house was as we left it.
Shannon
Providing Pet Sitting in the Rockbourne, United Kingdom
Reliable, calm, caring, non-smoking, retired couple with a great love of dogs.
Shannon, Colin and Bella came for a 2nd sit for our boys and it's lovely to have them. Once again, we came home to very happy and chilled dogs, a lovely tidy house and a delicious home made curry from Colin. We love having them as feel totally relaxed being away, knowing Peanut and Merlin are having their own lovely holiday with days out, lots of cuddles and play time with Bella. Look forward to having them visit again soon.
Philippa
Providing Pet Sitting in the Rockbourne, United Kingdom
Fun loving, energetic, adventurous & caring couple that love all animals
Phillipa and David were wonderful, loving and caring with our 6 fur babies. They all looked happy and healthy on our return. Communication was brilliant, we felt we could message any time for an update and we were kept well informed. When we got home Phillipa had a delicious vegan stew ready for us, which we were very grateful for 🙏 Our home was kept clean and tidy and David even did some gardening, keeping our garden looking beautiful. Thank you both so much, hopefully you will be seeing you again next time.

Qualified vet nurse, with farming background looking UK and international sits.
Jill has house and pet sat for me again this year. I felt comfortable having her look after my animals especially knowing that she had experience looking after sick animals. She sent me regular pics and videos and I felt happy and confident that they were looked after. Thank you so much.

Sandra & Rick are fantastic pet sitters! They looked after Archie our ginger Tom for a week and he had the best of times.

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Francisco
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.

The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
Alexis
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.
Brandon & Travis
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
Chelsey
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
Kathleen
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Carrie
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!

If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.

Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.

My girls have just had another wonderful holiday with Katie. They missed their doggie friends and lovely walks when they came home. Katie is a gem and it’s a truly home from home for little dogs with lots of love and attention. Highly recommend NFDS and we are certainly pleased we found you.
Katie at New Forest Dog Sitters is brilliant. We used her services twice whilst on holiday - the second time was during our wedding. She is friendly, helpful and great with animals. You trust her immediately. Our dog had a great stay with her & came home to us happy after lots of great walks. Would highly recommend
Our two chihuahuas have just come back from a trial night of 'doggy boarding'. Katie was so kind and caring, you could tell she really loves dogs. They are definitely treated as part of the family. My two soon settled in and looked happy and relaxed this morning when I came to collect them. I'd highly recommend Katie. She really knows her stuff regarding doggy fur babies and I'm so happy I can have worry free holidays in future.
Katie is so friendly and kind, I have absolute confidence in leaving my dog with her, It is a lovely home from home setting, and I can feel reassured that my dog is being really well looked after, and even get updates with photos while I am away. I would thoroughly recommend New Forest Dog Sitters and will certainly be using them again.
Katie is brilliant with our dog. Our dog goes to NFDS on a regular basis for daycare and absolutely loves socialising with her pawfriends, having two walks a day and lots of attention. I’m so glad I found Katie to look after our dog - she is so trustworthy and put my mind at rest with leaving our dog for the first time. I would recommend NFDS for looking after your small four legged members of the family!
We left our two pups with Katie for two weeks and they had a great time! Katie took them on lots of interesting walks and sent photo updates to us so that we were assured that all was well. The dogs were happy and healthy on our return and we could tell that they had been very well looked after - not surprising as Katie is so warm and friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending Katie and will defiitely be using her services again!
Katie looked after our puppy during the day twice whilst we were camping in the New Forest - this enabled us to go on days out where dogs are not welcome - such as a trip to Paulton’s Theme Park. She was very friendly and accommodating and our dog enjoyed lovely days with her. We would definitely use Katie again as our dog-sitter.
Katie and her family are simply wonderful. Our dog Morty is loved and cared for as if he was their own. He loves staying there for day care or overnights. We feel totally relaxed when he is their care. Absolutely recommended!
We left our dog Mia with Katie for the day whilst we were on holiday from Norfolk. Katie was amazing from start to finish spped of reply and helpfulness 2nd to none. On the day at drop off Katie made Mia so welcome and I felt 100% comfortable leaving her Mia was eating treats and getting lots of fuss she did not even look when I left. During the day Katie sent us pictures to update us and Mia had a 2 hr walk and was happily laying on the couch when I arrived to collect her. I would not hesitate to recommend Katie to any one she is totally amazing
Katie was absolutely fantastic! Our little sausage dog and Cavapoo clearly had a wonderful time, as when we picked them up the next day, they were very happy and relaxed. Katie was so lovely and kept us up to date with pictures.

Charlie looked after our two miniature dachshunds , Pablo and Tulip for 3 weeks. It was their first time having a sitter but I knew they were in safe hands. Charlie is very experienced and professional who kept me updated regularly with adorable photos of the dogs cuddled up with her on the sofa. I don’t think they missed me at all! I returned home to two happy dogs and a spotless, immaculate house filled with daffodils! I highly recommend Charlie and will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you so much Charlie x
Charlie looked after our two dogs, six chickens, one robin and home for the first time recently but hopefully not the last! She coped brilliantly with our very difficult, nervy cocker, giving her time to get used to a new person and they were great friends by the end of the 2 day sit! I really hope she will be able to come and look after everyone again as we feel 100% confident and nothing is more valuable than that! Thanks Charlie xx
Charlie is AMAZING. She looked after our Bedlington Whippets Billy and Dolly so well, and they absolutely love her. Charlie kept us up to date with all their hilarious shenanigans while we were away, and it was so reassuring to know that they were being so well looked after. Not only that, but our house was spotless on our return which was such a bonus. If Charlie is available you should consider yourself very lucky and don't hesitate to book!
Not sure why we are doing this as we want her for our own and don't want to share her. Charlie has stayed numerous times....and is staying again next week. Always arrive home to happy contented cats and beautifully kept home, having been updated with lots of photos whilst away. A true pro.
Charlie took care of our house and cats while we were out of town, and did a fabulous job with both. Our cats loved her and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. They are fussy pets with distinctly different personalities and individual needs and Charlie provided excellent care. We came home to happy cats and a clean, well taken care of house. She is also a very pleasant person with great communication skills. We would absolutely seek out Charlie's services again!
Charlie is simply the most perfect housesitter. She came highly recommended by a friend. Charlie took the time to visit us before the house sit which we really appreciated as this involved a lengthy round trip. We were immediately impressed by her engaging, sincere and responsible manner. More importantly, our dog bonded with her straight away. Being a GSP, he is super sensitive, intuitive and since lockdown, particularly needy. Charlie’s paperwork was very professional and comprehensive. Whilst we were away she sent us frequent photos and updates to keep us in touch. She also made the effort to replicate our dogs routine by walking him with his canine mates which was much appreciated by them all. The house was immaculate on our return, even down to the laundry. We recommend her with absolutely no reservation. We really hope she will come again soon.
Charlie looked after our beagle and our home for eight days. We came back to a happy dog and an immaculate house. Charlie was professional, friendly, gentle and caring. She did a fantastic job. I would use her again and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Having Charlie come to look after our lovely British Shorthair boys was a great experience. I often feel nervous and guiltily about leaving the boys, but Charlie put my nerves at ease immediately. Communicating with Charlie was really easy and stress free. Charlie certainly must give off loving vibes to cats. Tony can be shy with new people and keep out of their way, however, he immediately connected with Charlie as shown by the photos I received of him cuddling up to her feet. I’d highly recommend Charlie to look after your adored animals and home.
Charlie is so lovely. She looked after our Cat Pickle and 2 chickens for a week while we were on holiday. She also looked after our home so well and kept it spotless. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone if you want someone to look after your home and pets while you're on holiday! Our Cat doesn’t do well staying in the cattery so Charlie is a godsend! We have Pre booked her in again for our 2 week holiday next year.
You'd be the luckiest if Charlie can sit for you! She is a great communicator, reliable, super-clean and tidy, and such a warm and lovely person. I felt so calm and reassured the entire time I was away, because Charlie made me feel like I had a good friend looking after my cat Elio - who took to her immediately and was relaxed and happy. She kept me updated and sent gorgeous photos of Elio regularly. Charlie was absolutely fantastic and took wonderful care of him and my flat. I honestly cannot recommend her enough, and will most definitely be a returning customer. Thank you so very much Charlie! <3
I Pet Sit
Recent Reviews:
Ipetsit have been amazing. From the moment we met Karen we knew that she was the right person to look after our boy and they haven't once let us down. Baxter our 14 month old Labrador has been going now four days a week, for three months and the transformation in him has been truly brilliant and heartwarming. He was so shy when I first took him and it was hard to leave him, but Karen is so reassuring and professional. I could tell she knew what she was doing 100% and that made everything so much easier for me and within a matter of days maybe a week he was truly loving it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend ipetsit. The peace of mind I have when Baxter is with them is worth every penny.
Excellent facility, owned and operated on a 24/7 basis by a very knowledgeable lady. Would heartily recommend for your family dog.
We have been using i pet sit for our mini schnauzer Murphy since he was a puppy when we first moved to Salisbury 18 months ago and have never looked back since! Murphy absolutely loves spending time with the i pet sit pack and I think he would probably spend all of his time there if he could! He has built a lovely bond with Karen and it has become a home from home for him, which is so important to us, especially as he has quite bad separation anxiety. When I drop him off for the day he can't get through the door quick enough to meet the other dogs and I can always tell he's had a good day from the lovely updates and pictures I receive, as well as having a very happy dog when I collect him! I pet sit have always been really accommodating and have helped me out many a times at the last minute when I've needed doggy day care, especially when I went into hospital to have my son and had to stay in for a few days. I also work long shifts with early starts but never too early or a problem for I pet sit to collect Murphy at a convenient place for me, as well as offering longer hours so that I can pick him after work, which is a great help and I know Murphy is more than happy with this! I can't recommend I pet sit highly enough to anyone looking for a pet sitting service in the area, as you won't find a more friendly, caring and professional service. Murphy is a part of our family and there's nowhere else I would trust more to leave our dog in the care of. Thank you I pet sit, Murphy can't wait to come for his next play date! :)
I Pet Sit have literally transformed our experience of owning a dog. Not only is it our dog's favourite place in the world – and she comes back happy and tired – but we feel incredibly reassured when leaving her there, she's cared for incredibly well, they really take the time to get to know each dog and their personality, and they take safety extremely seriously. We couldn't recommend I Pet Sit any more highly.
Awful. I thought it was just my dog who came home terrified and very thin after being in her care for a week. I have since found that other dogs have had the same experience
