Dog Sitting in Les Vans

Carole and Sylvain were brilliant Housesitters! They clearly loved all of our animals and they were so well cared for. This is what we wish to have with all of our Housesitters and Carole and Sylvain certainly delivered it in style. We very much enjoyed catching up with them when we returned home. Lunch and a delicious dinner were laid on for us which was really lovely. The morning before they left we went out together for a snorkel at the beach and had a good catch up with everything. We would welcome Carole and Sylvain back to our house at any time and hope that they will want to come and visit us again.

Marie was terrific cannot thank her enough two happy dogs when I got home and my house impeccable. Thank you Mairie.

I was very happy with Marianne for being available on such short notice. My previous sitter had canceled, leaving me without a cat sitter a week before the date. Fortunately, Marianne was available, and with her years of experience, I could leave with peace of mind. She was very flexible with scheduling and left the house tidy. I definitely recommend her.

Severine was lovely. We’ve been so lucky with all our sitters and hope the trend continues. Sev was friendly and warm, responsible and kept in touch. Most importantly our dogs fell in love with her. When she left they definitely moped about for a while. The day she arrived we had an unexpected Vet emergency with one of the pups which needed care and treatment. Sev wasn’t phased and we felt very confident leaving it to her. Thank you for everything Sev. Hope our paths cross again soon!

Christina and Luc are a lovely couple, trustworthy and obvious animal lovers. Our dog, cat and pony were well looked after and we would welcome them back if our dates coincide in the future. Thank you so much Christina and Luc!

Leisan and Vincent very truly amazing. They kept sending pictures and updates and I knew I could trust them completely. One of my cats is very wary of strangers but they’ve managed to gain his trust quickly. The apartment was left perfectly clean and tidy. I couldn’t recommend them enough !

The sit with Melanie went really well! I came back to a happy and relaxed cat :-) the organization and communication was very smooth and she was super accommodating as it was a rather last minute sit. I received updates everyday, so it felt very reassuring. My flat was left tidy and all was perfect! Highly recommend Melanie, thank you for everything! Always welcome at ours 😽

Jean is a very reliable, friendly sitter. We were able to go visit our family in the states for four weeks plus a week trip with friends here in Sicily. He speaks Italian, English and French so we knew he would be able to get around and that if a cat escaped Jean could find help. He also tightened the handles on my pots and pans as well as fixing a couple other things just because he could 🙂. When we returned the cats went right back to our routine. The only thing that could have been better is the litter box needed fresh litter in it... but other then that we would have Jean again. I love that he is just a good person. He is the kind of sitter who you wish you had a little extra time and room so you can hang out with them. We wish Jean all the best on his adventures.

Nicolas sat for us during a 3 week trip we made in Nov/Dec 2022. Communication with Nicolas wasn't easy. We were so concerned that he wasn't going to arrive that we made other last minute plans just in case. He did though contact late in the evening before we were due to leave to confirm his arrival. Our advert specifies that we are rural and a car is essential, Nicolas arrive by train and needed to be collected from the station. Having no car isn't ideal but our initial difficulties and concerns were eased as he is a pleasant , likeable chap and seemed in control of the situation. There was very little communication when we were away. Our flight home was delayed. We had previously agreed that we would return home at around 15hr and that we could drive him to the station to catch his train. We messaged that morning and kept messaging with updates. Once we knew our flight was leaving we told him when we would arrive home; but about 6 hours late. We knew his train would leave 2 hours before we arrived home so we said that if he needed to get the last train he should. When we arrived home the house was spotless, albeit very very cold as Nicolas doesn't like heat. Winnie seemed fine but a little anxious and she had pooped in the house which suggests that she had been locked in for a long time as this is totally not like her. Nicolas has still to read our message about our delayed flight so we have no idea when he left our house. To be fair, our cat was totally fine and happy. And our home was immaculate when we returned. We have no complaints about this BUT communication with your sitter is essential and we feel that Nicolas needs to work on these skills, if for no other reason than to ease the concerns of the pet owners. However, thank you Nicolas for taking good care of our cat and our home and we wish you happy travels in the future

This was our second time having these ladies stay with our sweet dogs and it was the absolute best decision. We were gone for three weeks visiting family and never worried for a second about our babies. They sent constant updates, spoiled the dogs, took care of the house and garden, and even made friends with the neighbors. They went above and beyond expectations and may just be our favorite sitters yet. Thanks again ladies you are welcome back anytime.
