Cat Sitters in Baydon

Emma & Jan

Emma and Jan are lovely: friendly and kind. My cat Sophie took to them instantly and i completely trusted them with her. Emma and Jan are very calm and organised and keen to make sure everything was done as I’d like whilst they were staying. They kept me updated whilst I was away and i returned to a very clean and tidy home, and a happy cat. I’d recommend them without hesitation.

Samantha & John

Absolutely fabulous sitters again :) We are so lucky to be able to spend time with them before we went to the UK, to visit family for 3 weeks and also on our return, they cooked us a lovely meal. This is the second time Sam and John have sat for Milo and looked after our home. Such a friendly couple, really easy to communicate with. Nothing is too much trouble, especially when it comes to Milo. They searched high and low to get him one of his favourite foods (fresh strawberries). He's such a fussy tortoise, frozen strawberries just aren't the same. We had daily updated on Milo, who was always very happy. He was sad to say goodbye, because they spoilt him rotten Sam and John kept the property so clean and tidy. We really do appreciate everything they have done for us. We could go away and know Milo and our home are in good hands, with no worries, just enjoy our time away with family. We can highly recommended them. But not when we need them! hahaha Thank you both so much x Sarah and Paul

Anthony & Nicola

This was Anthony and Nicola’s first pet sit, and it was exceptional! Not only did they look after my two cats, fed the fish, fed the tadpoles, watered the plants, communicated with daily WhatsApps to keep my informed and reassured, but Anthony, of his own volition, fixed a rotting garden bench, giving it another decade of use, and changed some light bulbs for greener, more energy efficient ones. My only regret - that I couldn’t have spent more time with them both because they were such good company too.

Peter

Very competent, prompt and loving care of our senior dog and cat. Communicated well and left the house clean and tidy!

Isabella

Isabella took wonderful care of our dog Luna and our home while we were away on a short break. She was an excellent communicator and we returned to a happy dog and an immaculate home. Thank you Isabella!

Alena

Alena helped us out on very short notice and was absolutely amazing. She made time to come and meet the animals before the sit and took excellent care of them and our home. I would highly recommend her.

Krister

Krister was a wonderful sitter for our beautiful aging spaniel. We had regular updates and photos. On return our dog obviously enjoyed being by him. He turned up early and stayed an extra night as our flight was late. We had tea and biscuits waiting for us!

Hilary & Jon

I can’t recommend Hilary and Jon too highly, they are a lovely couple who took excellent care of our home and animals . I can’t think of any way our experience could have been bettered , from pre-sit communication to our return home to happy and healthy animals and plants and a delicious curry ready for our supper! Thank you !

Ai

Ai is the second pet sitter I invited into my home and I could not be happier to have chosen her. She was at ease as soon as she arrived and settled straight away. My cat Cookie took to her too. During my ten days away Ai communicated with me every day to update me. I was very grateful. Ai knew Cookie loves to be brushed, it helped to become best friends!! Thank you Ai for taking good care of my cat and my home too.

Abby

Abby and Anthony (and Bodhi and Evie) were fantastic house sitters! They made the whole experience incredibly easy for us. They came to meet us before our holiday and were very relaxed and friendly. They easily took on board all the details of managing our home and caring for Mango and Chutney and then stayed in contact until we went away so that finalising all the last minute details was very simple. While we were on holiday they regularly kept in touch, providing updates on both our home and our dogs, including a few lovely photos and videos. It was so reassuring to know that everything was being so well cared for by them while we were away. When we returned from our holiday our home was immaculate and it was clear that Mango and Chutney had been much loved while we were away. It's impossible to think of anything that could have been done better by Abby and Anthony. They were excellent house sitters and we would certainly recommend them without reservation. We will definitely use them again!

Marie & John

Marie, Johnny & Cerys were wonderful house sitters! Molly had an unexpected vet visit and they handled it brilliantly. Throughout the sit despite a time difference they kept us up to date with lots of messages and pictures, the house was left clean tidy and organized and we were welcomed home to a happy pup! Would definitely recommend as sitters :) thank you!

Diane Faith

Diane was a wonderful sitter. She was very responsive in all communication and totally reliable. She looked after the house and the animals beautifully and we could tell how much they liked her too! We have no hesitation in recommending her as a sitter as long as we don’t need her at the same time!!

Sue & Dave

What a lovely young couple!
They were a delight to meet and they would looked after both house and hound with love and respect. Would be happy to let them come back one day!

David

Alison looked after our house in Brixton and our two dogs for 8 days in July while we were on holiday. Before the sit we met Alison via Skype and she also came to the house to meet the dogs. Alison is most certainly a seasoned house/pet sitter and we knew instantly that our home and beloved dogs were going to be well cared for. 

While on holiday we could tell from Alison's regular updates that our dogs were really bonding with her and we could see they were having tons of enrichment, plenty of exercise and loads of affection. Little Vic, our older pug, has a couple of medical conditions and Alison was great at administering eye drops and regularly bathing a little sore he had which had healed by the time we got home thanks to Alison's care. 

Alison is easygoing, kind and completely capable. We felt confident that as well as caring for the dogs and house she would have been able to handle any emergencies or issues should they arise which for us is really important. 

We were absolutely able to switch off on holiday and my only worry was that the dogs would miss Alison more than they missed us?  We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Thanks Alison!
