Dog Sitters in Aston Clinton

Rowena was a fabulous sitter. Not only did she care for our house and Barney superbly but she did it all without actually ever meeting us! Our first sitter kindly conducted the handover on our behalf and was obviously much better at it than us! Barney had a wonderful time on long walks and at the village cafe and the house was left in absolutely immaculate condition. We would unreservedly recommend Rowena as a sitter and hope she’ll be available next time around!

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND; Unfortunately, our experience of Natasha and her partner is sadly not that others appear to have had. We needed a sitter for two nights to care for our two dogs, two elderly cats and house while we had a couple of nights away for our youngest son’s wedding. Our usual house sitters weren’t available, and we had arranged for another sitter from zeewoi but just a few weeks from the wedding she had to pull out due to ill health. I republished the dates and Natasha applied. We arranged a video call as I always want to do this prior to agreeing for a sitter so I can meet them beforehand especially if they are not local and able to visit prior to the sit. It was only going to be Natasha and her son Colby and not her partner that were going to do the sit so the video call was only with her. Natasha and Colby arrived, and I ran through all the instructions for the house and pets and in particular that as we have several acres of land that the dogs were to be inside after dark. I left happy in the knowledge that Natasha and Colby were looking forward to a quiet evening watching a movie. Having enjoyed a family dinner and heading off to bed to get some sleep before the big day I notice several notifications on my phone from my external home security cameras. This was at 10.30pm and after dark and I notice that my little dog was out the front of the property and had been there since 10pm and no one was letting him even though he was barking. I then checked the other camera notifications, and I was shocked to not only see a man at my property, but he was exiting a rear patio door that was wide open with loud music coming from the room he had just left, and he was undressed. This room is my husband’s special room that holds a lot of his memorabilia from his early life which is important to us as a family as he now has dementia. I felt physically sick imagining what was going on in my property and especially this room. I contacted Natasha to ask what was going on and why were the dogs out when I had given specific instructions for them to be inside and who was the man at my property that I had not given permission to be there. She confirmed it was her partner and that he had inadvertently let the dogs out!!! I was furious but it was too late to do anything then, but I didn’t sleep all night worrying about my home and pets. In the morning, I managed to contact some friends who kindly rearranged their plans and took over. Natasha was asked to vacate the property as I needed to be happy that my home and pets were in good hands to be able to enjoy my son’s special day. This couple broke all the rules for being a Zeewoi, they were dishonest, and were disrespectful and I feel like they violated our property, they did not care for our pets as they had been asked and have tarnished the memory of our son’s wedding day. I would not recommend or trust them as sitters.

Shane and Hattie have been the most wonderful house sitters, we really couldn't have asked for more. Communication prior to and during the sit was excellent, we even met them beforehand, as they are local to us, so they popped over to say hi and to meet Teddy. Whilst we were away, they sent an update and gorgeous photos of Teddy everyday, even though we hadn't requested it. We could see that Teddy was being utterly spoilt and having the most fabulous time with them. On our return we found the annexe absolutely spotless and they had left us the most beautiful home made fruit tart in the fridge - it was delicous!. They really did go above and beyond and exceeded all our expectations. We know Teddy loved spending time with Hattie and Shane as he keeps wandering over to the annexe looking for them. He's clearly missing them very much. We wouldn't hesitate to use Shane and Hattie again and would highly recommend them - 5 star rating all round!!

Joanne and Keith have house sat for us a few times and, as usual, looked after our house and pets as if they were their own. On our return our house was immaculate and the animals were all very happy. We hope Joanne and Keith will come back again!

Jackie and Rob are a lovely couple who took great care of our dogs. They communicated well before and during their stay. The house was left clean and tidy. The dogs were taken on daily walks even in horrible weather. We highly recommend them!

This was our first time with housesitters and Libby and Peter were amazing! They were reassuring before we left, came to meet us and the dogs and arrived at the house soon after we'd left. They sent photos and messages while we were away which put us at ease. The dogs loved them and were very well cared for. The house was exactly how we left it, the plants were well looked after and they had even washed the bedding and towels. Would definitely recommend Libby and Peter.

Fran & her daughter stayed for the weekend, they left the house clean and tidy & you wouldn’t know they had stayed for the weekend! The dogs enjoyed there walks. Ideal sitter 😊

Jeanette was very friendly, trustworthy and easy to get on with immediately. She showed the greatest of care of interest and care in my cat’s welfare, well-being and needs. Cecilia was very happy to go to her as soon as they met so I knew she was in very safe hands. She was so well-looked after! Everything was left immaculately and bedding and towels were washed and dried. Jeanette left a lovely message about her stay. I really hope she comes again and Cecilia would be thrilled to have her back!

Reece was on time on day of arrival , he kept the house clean and tidy, the house was spotless on our return ,our cats and dogs where very happy with Reece and they had plenty of attention . Reece is very professional in every way . We would have Reece back to do other sits anytime . Would recommend Reece to others if asked.

Ben and Alex took wonderful care of our cat Chilli and our house and provided us with photos and information every day. They left the house very clean and tidy and even washed the bedding before they left. Chilli has rarely been so relaxed and quickly built up trust with Ben and Alex, which is not typical for him. We can warmly recommend Alex and Ben to everyone and would be happy to welcome them back again.

Hi highly recommend Sam. She was incredibly diligent in knowing what both our cat and we needed. She was highly responsive to communication both before and during the sit. The house was left immaculate and, most importantly, our cat was calm and relaxed when we returned. I will definitely ask Sam to sit for us again

Tracey was an excellent house sitter. We were leaving early and she was more than happy to let herself in which was great. We felt comfortable leaving Bear with Tracey and she kept us updated with photos and videos. When we came home, Tracey had left the place spotless and stripped the bed and washed the bed sheets. Would highly recommend Tracey to anyone looking for a house sitter. She even left us all a Christmas present which was so lovely to come home to.
