Dog Sitting in East Ruston

Eleanor was just the best sitter and the loveliest person! A very interesting and intelligent woman, I would have happily chatted with her all night! (I’m quite a shy, solitary person so that says a lot about her warmth) It was all very last minute as Peggy was due to go and stay with a friend but she had an accident and had to have an operation so I thought it was better she stayed at home. Eleanor looked after her beautifully, followed all instructions diligently including giving medication. Peggy was very taken with her, Fiesta too who apparently brought her a delightful present of a mouse! (A good sign whether you like it or not!) Eleanor is the perfect balance of sensible, practical, caring and affectionate with the animals. She even comforted them both during a storm. The house was spotless and all the laundry done. I really couldn’t have asked for anything more, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her wholeheartedly. Eleanor I so enjoyed meeting you and I hope you’ll come again. Thank you from all of us x

We really feel like we landed on our feet having Kimberley and Dean look after our ‘little boy’ Huw. We were newbies to having a house/pet sitter, but Kimberley really held our hand taking the initiative to set up an early meeting and responding quickly to messages. Meeting early really set our minds to rest. At handover we agreed every other day updates on progress which included a photo and a couple of sentences and this really helped us to feel much more comfortable that Huw was being well looked after. It was clear throughout that Kimberley and Dean had considered our profile details, taking Huw to some of his favourite places and also on some new adventures too … including introducing him to a Hollywood star! Their experience with animals, but especially dogs, shows and this helped hugely in understanding Huw’s personality leading to him having a great time - when they left it was clear that he was upset that his new friends were heading off. Kimberley and Dean took great care of our house which was left immaculately clean. Thank you both so much for befriending and looking after Huw.

10/10! A very pleasant, friendly and trustworthy couple. Lynne and David spent the evening with us before we went away and we thought they were such lovely people, and felt very confident leaving our pets and house in their care. They were able to put the guinea pigs out daily, the hutch got a good clean out too. My cat was very comfortably sitting with Lynne within minutes of their arrival. I can’t even begin to say how happy we were with their house sitting and we’ll definitely be asking them again in the future.

Take my word for it ... Ros and Nick are "SAINTS"! If I could leave them 100 stars I would! They are the most lovely people you could possibly imagine and have sat for me on numerous occasions now. They are utterly trust worthy, and go way above and beyond, and are not only the best house sitters ever, but they cope with everything and anything. Thank you R & N from the bottom of my heart for being truly utterly fabulously amazing.

John and Helen are a lovely couple. We’re so glad they had a nice time exploring the area. The cats 🐈 were well looked after and the house was immaculate. Just the right amount of updates - would absolutely recommend!

Wow, what can one say, Shay and Rick were brilliant. We arrived home to very happy dogs, horses and chickens, the garden had been watered and the house immaculate, nothing was too much trouble, I couldn't ask for more. A huge thank you from us all and I hope we might be able to leave the troops in your capable hands if we decide to go away again!

Mandy Peter and summer took fantastic care of our pets. Arrangements and communication were straightforward, and all went to plan. They arrived as promised in the morning despite an early start with absolutely no fuss. We knew straight away that Betty would get plenty of attention, especially from summer. The animals were obviously well cared for, and Betty enjoyed her trips out. Our home was also left clean and tidy. I’d have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mandy Peter and summer.

Joan was very sweet and caring and communication with her was easy throughout. We spoke over FaceTime to introduce ourselves and kept in touch leading up to and during the sit. Joan came alone in this instance but was perfectly capable of looking after the home and each of our animals. Joan is a talented painter and left us a beautiful hand painted card which was a lovely thought. All of our animals were happy upon our return which is all we can ask for.

From the moment we met Ellie and Sean we knew they were going to be very conscientious and caring whilst looking after our dogs . Major, their own dog came to stay also . He is a well trained , easy going dog who blended easily with ours . Ellie and Sean have strong attention to detail and gave us confidence that they could manage Cillas medication and both her and Douglas’s routine . The videos sent regularly and photos illustrated how content the dogs were and how they had bonded with Ellie and Sean. Our home was respected and cared for . All my house plants were healthy and they helped to store our large crop of apples. We do hope to see Ellie and Sean again and think they are great house sitters !

Recently had the delightful Audrey complete a 2.5 week housesit in our home to keep our two cats company. Audrey kept us updated throughout her visit with regular e-mails. Our furry friends where happy and relaxed on our return and our home was immaculate. Our neighbours thought her wonderful. The added surprise of supper left in the fridge was a real bonus after our long journey home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Audrey and we would definitely love to have her sit for us again if our travel plans aligned. Thank you Audrey.
