Dog Sitters in Bardsea

Michael & Kirsten

Michael and Kirsten sat for us to look after Rosie and Basil last month. They are a lovely couple - they arrived as agreed a day early to meet the dogs and get to know the house. The dogs took to them instantly and we were very comfortable leaving our "babies" with them. What more could you ask? The looked after the house and garden whilst we were away - leaving everything spotless for when we returned. And the dogs were relaxed and happy when we came back. We wouldn't hesitate to have Michael and Kirsten sit for us again - and Rosie and Basil give them a big "high five" too!

Elaine

Elaine has been a pleasure to get to know. We arrived by to all our very relaxed and contented pets. Including 7 runner ducks! Elaine is very attentive to all the pets needs and is a safe pair of hands. Great communication, and arrived early for a handover which helped us to explain the house and pets, sending us off to relax. Thanks so much Elaine xx

Linda

Bertie and Oscar didn’t want Linda and Dean to leave!! They were fabulous- keeping us updated on the dogs’ activities and leaving the house tidier than it was when they arrived! Brilliant house and dog sitters

Maria

Maria looked after our dog Marlowe, a Romanian rescue. She put us at ease from the first phone call and we were so pleased with her care for Marlowe. She gave her lots of walks and sent us updates daily. We came home to a very happy and content girl. We would use Maria again without a doubt.

Michael

It was just so great to have Mike back at our home. The dogs absolutely love being with him each time he’s here and it’s brilliant that he was able to come and stay again. I always leave with absolute peace of mind. This time I asked Mike if he was free at very short notice and he was so kind and came up to help. He’s extremely easy going and flexible in all aspects and nothing phases him. Everything is left so beautifully with little thoughtful touches like a delicious banana cake and a lovely bottle of wine after a very long and late journey. I can’t recommend Mike highly enough, so brilliant!

Hannah

Hannah is clearly a pet lover and Maddie took to her straight away. She understood what Maddie needed and was on top of it very quickly. Hannah demonstrated everything about Zeewoi that makes it so easy to have your best friend cared for in the best way. She was really clear and communicated just the right amount, sharing some photos to show how happy Maddie was and finalising arrangements. I have no hesitation in recommending Hannah as a carer for pets and home.

Eleanor & Matthew

I could not have asked for more! Eleanor and Mathew were wonderful with all three and the cats were relaxed, happy and well fed. Nemesis, who avoids people was so friendly with them I was amazed. They are a delight and I would welcome them back.

Sally

Sally was great, a real cat person, very in tune with their needs. I got Sally at a time when the kitten was still not using the cat flap and she managed him in and out ok, thanks Sally!

Louise

Louise was the greatest! Such a sweetheart, I would recommend her 1,000 x over again. She was reliable and a great communicator. She kept me updated daily with pics. The babies really loved her. She took great care of them while I was away. She was also organized and tidy and let my place is amazing condition. Thanks so much for taking such great care of my babies while I was away. We hope you will come see us again!

Lisa & John

Lisa, John and Grace were great sitters. The communication beforehand was excellent, we were reassured before they arrived that all would be well. Timing was spot on, they were well organised and sent us lots of photos of Bert and Banjo throughout their stay. It was obvious that they had researched the area and were prepared to take our two to lots of different dog-friendly places. The dogs were very calm on our return and the house was spotless! Thank you John, Lisa and Grace, we would recommend you unreservedly! You’re welcome back anytime🥰 Many thanks Angie and Gary

Belinda & Simon

Absolutely brilliant sitters and can’t recommend highly enough. Very organised, just the right level of contact and their care for our animals and house was once again spot on. We love having you down and Rafi can’t wait to see you and Teddie again !

Emily

Emily was the perfect person to look after Kylo and our home. We received daily updates on Kylo and while he is a very shy cat around new people, after a day or so he warmed to her nicely which was reassuring for us to see. Emily left the house spotless. Cannot recommend her enough, she is welcome back any time!

Daniela

This was Kate's second sit with us. This time, Jaret joined her. 
I really appreciate that Jaret took the time to fetch keys and get to know the apartment and cats some days prior to the sit.
I am sure that the cats were well taken care of by the two of them. Both furry friends were very relaxed when we returned. The apartment was clean, and our small garden was well-maintained. 
Unfortunately, there is a significant downside: our request not to leave items such as clothing, bags, or open suitcases on the floor, as our oldest cat (nearly 16y) tends to pee in/on them (she has this behavior since we got her as a baby), was ignored. This was despite a personal mention during our initial meeting with Jaret, specific warning in the Welcome Guide, and two reminders via WhatsApp when I saw photos of bags lying on the floor.

Now, the wooden floor in two rooms of our brand new apartment is "decorated" with two large und one small dark/black urine stains, as the mishaps were only noticed days later and not cleaned up right away. This very costly damage is extremely frustrating for us, even more because it could have been easily avoided. To say that we are disappointed is an understatement.

Alison

Chris and Mark are delightful, we felt completely at ease leaving our house and pets in their care.  We got home to find the house immaculately clean and tidy and our cat didn’t seem to have missed us at all!  They were very good at giving us updates on how their stay was going - we can’t fault them, we would recommend them to anyone.

Clarinda R

Katie was fantastic! She’s well organized, a strong communicator, passionate about animals, and easy going. We could tell in the pics all of our kids loved her, and we have a crew of 5. She left the house spotless and even washed and changed the sheets! We highly highly recommend her. She kept our kids active with exercise and stimulating puzzles.

Calvin

This sit came together with some synchronicity, and proved to be a timely, meaningful stay for me. Calvin is warm, gracious, intentional and a great communicator. His home exemplifies simplicity and a sense that he knows himself, and his most authentic priorities. It's well-situated in Asheville with a unique bird's-eye view, and a short nature trail nearby that is perfect for walking Kingsley. Both pets have alot in common with Calvin. They are very loving, and each very at home in their own skin. I found them a joy to spend time with, and supporting their needs was fluid and easeful. I'm grateful for everything about this exchange.
