Pet Sitters in Belsay

Alan

We have just returned from our holiday and Alan and Jean have looked after our dogs and home brilliantly. The dogs have clearly been well cared for with attention paid to their routine including very early walks due to the heat. The house is immaculate and they have gone well beyond expectations and tidied cupboards, cleaned out rooms, dealt with a power cut and even done some cooking for us ( left in the freezer). I highly recommend Alan and Jean as very caring house and pet sitters and I hope they have some lovely new experiences with their next house sits.

Annette

It was excellent to welcome Annette and Joe to our house. Fantastic communication throughout their stay, we really appreciated you sharing videos on WhatsApp of Rafa and Skye having a brilliant time on beach walks. Our house was absolutely immaculate when we returned and our dogs had very obviously been taken care of exceptionally well, we think they were disappointed to see you go! Thanks so much to you both, best of luck on your travels & we will keep in touch.

Helen & Fred

I'd really recommend Helen, she was organised, friendly and caring. She left the house really tidy and even washed the sheets and made us some soup! She was kind enough to go and pick up a missed delivery from the local post office for us, which was so helpful.

Caryn

We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had Caryn look after our home and dogs. She is a charming, warm and intelligent woman who took to our dogs straight away, as they did to her. While away we received regular updates by text, photos and videos. She walked them regularly, notwithstanding the appalling weather she had and we returned to a clean and tidy house with a very welcome chilli con carne in the fridge that Caryn had made for us (and delicious it was!). In summary a great sitter who we hope to see again. Richard & Jackie

Giles

Another good sit, thanks Giles

mary

Mary and Tom are a couple of angels. They took great care of our my very boisterous cockapoo pup. He was so a home with them both, going plenty of walks. I can honestly say he cried after them when they left. I can’t recommend both more highly. Barney and the house were well looked after by them and I hope we now keep in touch as friends. I would definitely be more than happy if they would consider looking after him again.

Keith & June

Keith and June were excellent sitters. We had a video call before their visit, all well. They arrived the day before I left and Tess completely bonded. Nil hassles with medications, they took Tess for lovely walks and the flat was spotless. I did not worry at all on my time away. Totally recommended.

Tina

Tina came over to meet us/the dogs a couple of times before the actually house-sitting. We were also able to run through everything with her, including what was required regarding our hens. She arrived in good time before we left, and we kept in touch during our time away. When we returned home, everything was neat and tidy, and the dogs seemed very happy. Carolyn

Danielle

All good! Good communication and my pets and house have been well taken care off while I was gone! Thank You Danielle :)

Zoe & Javier

Zoe and Javier were wonderful with our 3 furkids, giving them lots of love and attention while we were away - in fact they didn’t seem to notice we had gone. The house was clean and tidy and the dogs even had a wash! Our cat can be sulky but she took to them quickly and was happy to cuddle. They were communicative and sent regular updates and videos, and they were polite and pleasant in all interactions . We definitely recommend and rate them highly, and are very grateful for their sit.

Quentin & Lorena

Quentin and Lorena have just sat at our home and took care of our cat, hens and birds. Upon first meeting with them I knew my home was in good hands. My cat was well looked after and loved having cuddles with them on an evening. Quentin and Lorena even did jobs around the garden which was not expected but greatly appreciated. Our home was immaculate when we returned and kindly put the bins out for us. They are the perfect house sitters and we wouldnt hesitate in having them sit for us again. Extremely thoughtful, active and caring couple. Thank you! x

Lindsay & James

We were delighted that Lindsay and James housesat for us for the first part of our three week holiday (with other sitters taking over for the second part). Although we didn’t get to meet them in person due to the timing of our flights, we had a long chat on the phone beforehand and were confident that all would be well. Communication was excellent and we have been told by friends who dealt with the handover/leaving that the dogs were extremely happy and the house very well cared for. If you get the chance for Lindsay and James to sit for you, snap it up!

Heather

Heather’s property is in an idyllic setting (with a beautiful view of Mt. Hood, the neighboring winery, and farmland). Her animals were so much fun! We really enjoyed giving up the city life for the country life. But still, we were close to everything we could possibly need. Maui is a sweet girl who loves to cuddle and the goats are so friendly. The cats mostly kept to themselves with the exception of Snickers, who is a real character! Heather left clear instructions and was readily accessible. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you Heather and Rocco!!

Don

Maeve is such a sweetheart and I miss her already! She loves nothing more than your company and to snuggle up next to you at night. We enjoyed easy access to the beach where we took leisurely strolls along the shore. Don's home is in an excellent location that is set up perfectly for relaxing and taking it slow. Don is a wonderful communicator and very easy going. Thank you for trusting me with sweet Maeve and your comfortable home!

christine

We really loved our three weeks house-sit in Nueva Andalucia. Christine is so friendly and welcoming and has a lovely townhouse with a large communal pool just two minutes stroll away. Lucy her dog is adorable as are the moggies who settled down on the couch with us every night. Having a car is great as you can explore the pueblo blanco of Istan close by in the mountains and chic Puerto Banus which is just ten minutes drive from the house. We really enjoyed our stay and can highly recommend it to other house-sitters interested in this beautiful part of Andalucia, Spain. Craig & Juliana.

Thaisa

I spent 5 days with Bear, Coco and Scout, they are just adorable. Really well behaved and easy going dogs. I missed them already.
Lisa and Thaisa are just amazing. Super welcoming and beautiful human beings.
The house is super cozy and is so close to the beach and beautiful walks.
Great experience!

Victoria

It was such a lovely stay! Toby was affectionate and welcoming. The house is very comfortable and homey! And Victoria was super helpful and provided me with detailed notes to make sure I get all the info I needed during the stay! I definitely recommend!! :)

Ann

Ann’s home was very comfortable & inviting. Her garden area was just lovely! And Mr. Alexander was a delight to take care of! He was the most gentle big guy ever! We would love to take care of Alexander and his home again! Thank you Ann for your hospitality!
