"Olivia was amazing! she agreed to look after my house and dogs at last minute notice due my previous sitter falling through. She was very caring towards my dogs and super easy to communicate with. She even had to deal with a power cut which she handled well and kept me up to date. Would highly recommend and definitely would use again in the future "

"Amanda was a fantastic sitter - she took care of our two cats really well and acted swiftly when one of them suffered a urinary blockage (twice!) after hours. She showed great compassion and patience during a difficult situation, and kept us informed the whole time. Can't recommend highly enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We couldn’t recommend Maria more!
Maria looked after our miniature dachshund Norman at our place for 4 days, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
We met with her a few weeks beforehand and she was super friendly and instantly made us feel at ease – especially important as it was the first time we’d ever left our fur baby.
While we were away, Maria kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which was so reassuring. Norman clearly had the best time, and our house was left exactly as we left it.
We’ll definitely be booking Maria again for future house sitting for Norman and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely great with pets. 🐶💛
Thank you again!

"We were going away for awhile and this was the first 2 weeks that Jane looked after our 2 cats. Jane came around before we left to get a run down of the house and the cats. She sent us photos of our cats whilst we were away and they looked very relaxed and happy. She then did a handover with the next cat sitter. We had booked Jane again to cat sit for another 3 weeks towards the end of our holiday. "

She's reliable and professional, and a lovely person. Thanks to Rebecca, we could relax and enjoy our holiday, knowing that our pets and home were in the best possible hands.

"Zena house-sat for our cat, Darnelious, over the holiday season. She provided both my brother and I with daily updates, including photos, and videos of Darnelious which helped to put our minds at ease while we were out of the country. She had done an amazing job at keeping us updated and making sure that Darnelious was fed, cuddled and entertained throughout our trip. She showed warmth and enthusiasm in the way she cared for our cat. Darnelious was immediately comfortable with her presence and was all purrs. She truly cared for him as if he were her own cat. If you need someone to look after your beloved pet, I would without a shadow of a doubt recommend Zena."

"We recently had another incredible experience with Melanie. Despite reaching out to her last minute, she graciously agreed to take care of our home and our beloved Pixie for a two-night stay. On one of the days, Melanie had work commitments but went the extra mile to organise for her partner to look after Pixie throughout the day. Her dedication and willingness to go above and beyond in every aspect truly stood out. Pixie adores Melanie, and it was evident that he had the best weekend under her care. We are so grateful for Melanie's exceptional service and the genuine affection she showed our doggo. We are looking forward to a meet and greet so Pixie can make some new furry friends - Melanie has 4! Thank you Mel, and see you soon! "

"Jenny took great care of our 2 pets. Willow was taken on walks and Jenny's messages that said "Willow led the way" showed that she made sure Willow had a great time on her walk. She connected with our rescue cat who is always a bit wary of new people. Jenny stayed in touch and sent photos and updates. Would definitely recommend Jenny as a pet/house sitter."

"Farah gave us confidence that our cat would receive the best care and attention.
From first communication Farah was courteous and communicated promptly with confidence. While we were away for a week in July 2022, Farah kept us informed on the comfort of our cat so that we were assured that he was in capable hands. I believe he enjoyed the extra attention.
Farah stayed inhouse and was excellent, leaving our home clean and tidy.
I recommend Farah. She will be our first choice next time we need a cat sitter,"

"Claudia did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our cats. They are both very shy by nature, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them and managed to win them over, even getting them to come for cuddles, which is not easy!
She kept us updated with photos and reports, which we really appreciated and gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she looks after.
We would highly recommend Claudia to anyone and would be more than happy to have her back anytime. 🐾"

"Cin is fantastic, the best experience we've had with pet sitting so far. She quickly befriended our very shy cat, which was super cute to see, and our cat was clearly happy when we got back home. Her communication is on point: she shares both the positives and the negatives, which really brings peace of mind. She also took great care of our place. 100% recommend"

"Abbie recently watched our cat Yoko for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. This is the first time we have ever left her and were a bit nervous about leaving her with someone. Abbie was absolutely fabulous and I highly recommend her!
She took the time to meet with us ahead of the trip and meet Yoko and get to know her routine. She was excellent about keeping in touch with us during the trip and sending photo updates.
Abbie is exceptionally responsible, competent, trustworthy and a very caring person. It shows that she loves the pets she looks after.
We arrived home to a happy well cared for cat and a clean house! We will certainly use Abbie again in the future 😊"
