Pet Sitters in Blidworth

Anita

We have known Anita as a friend for many years so when left our home and fur babies in her care, we felt relaxed and sure that everything would be in safe hands. Due to unforseen circumstances, Anita was not able to stay overnight but this did not cause a problem as she lives very near to our house and was able to call in three times a day to care for Leyla and Blanca and to spend time with them. We had regular contact during our fortnight away and on our return we found the house tidy, all the plants had survived and, most of all, Leyla and Blanca had obviously been loved and well cared for. We have no hesitation in recommending Anita for any house/pet sitting. Thank you Anita and we hope you will agree to sit for us again in future.

Laura

Laura & Andrew looked after our pets - Bear the dog, Max the cat and Fish - last week and did an amazing job! They were lovely, very responsive and easy to communicate with before, during, and after the sit. Our animals were very comfortable with them - in fact Bear was poorly while we were away and they cared for him and took him to the vet. They left our home very clean and tidy and even washed the sheets and towels! I highly recommend Laura & Andrew for a sit and we would certainly welcome them again if they want to come back! :-)

Katalin & Leo

Katalin is so warm and friendly and Bess clearly loves her. Katalin took Bess on many day trips and they had a lovely time together. We have had Katalin house-sit before and were so pleased that we knew we wanted her to do it again- two weeks this time. We returned to an immaculate house (I am very fussy), well-watered garden (it had been very warm), and -most important- a very happy dog!

Loree & Andy

Loree and Andy stayed at my flat for a long weekend, looking after my cat Maya. Maya was clearly very well looked after and fed well, the flat was clean and tidy! Would happily recommend - and thank you for looking after Maya.

Ian

Ian and Ali were terrific housesitters. They took the time to come the night before their stay to familiarise themselves with the house and pets and meet us, which was very much appreciated. During their stay, they sent us updates and photos on how the pets were doing too, which we loved. When we got home, they had left the house absolutely spotless and had even washed all their bedsheets and towels and hung them out to dry. Above and beyond! Thanks you Ian and Ali for taking such care of our home and pets. X

Mandy & Mark

It was lovely to welcome Mandy & Mark back for the second time. They are lovely house guests and took great care of Marley. I will hopefully see them again for another sit sometime soon. Thanks both for everything (including washing my car!).

Cassie

Cassie and Harry were the loveliest couple. They came to my house the night before the sit so I had the pleasure of meeting them in person. They are clearly animal lovers and I had every confidence entrusting my beloved elderly cats to their care. Their commitment and communication were impeccable and they were incredibly understanding and kind when I had to cut the sit short due to illness. I can only hope I’ll be lucky enough for them to return back another time. I recommend them with 6 stars!!

Alisa

Alissa and Russell are the most super couple! They are warm, friendly and humorous - I'm pretty sure that the dogs and cats are sulking that we have returned home! Alissa and Russell are very relaxed and self-sufficient, so having them around is an absolute pleasure - they are equally happy having a cup of tea and a chat as they are making themselves scarce during the chaos of getting out of the house to go on holiday. Our pets were so well looked after (spoiled rotten) and the house was absolutely spotless on our return, including their bedding being washed, which was deeply appreciated; we were also delighted that they enjoyed our home and our fresh fruit and veg - particularly the tomatoes! We would be thrilled if Alissa and Russell would sit for us again and we have made them promise to drop by if they are ever passing.

Halle & Hannah

My house was left absolutely spotless and like they had never been! Thoughtfully stripped bed and popped in washing machine. I had absolutely no issues and they were so polite and lovely to talk to and always got back to my messages. My animals looked well looked after and very happy when I returned. Thank you so much!

Taylor

Amazing house sitter. Pets were happier than we left House was cleaner than we left Updates and stories and photos all day long Handled our 10 animals with aplomb including our one pup who had some medicine she needed to be given twice a day

Sandra

This was Sandra and her family’s first sit. Communication was great, they left our home clean and tidy and took great care of our dogs. The family was self sufficient and I would highly recommend and welcome them in our home again. Thank you Sandra snd Daniel x

Danny

Danny, Emma and family were fantastic house sitters and certainly welcome back any time! They very flexible with arrival and departure times, willing to flex in order to meet with us before we left so we could give them a tour and run through tasks. Cats and chickens were well looked after, with Danny and Emma be very attentive and caring for one of our chickens (a favourite called ginger) when she lost a fight with another chicken and needed observation. They left the house absolutely spotless on departure. Very successful sit!

john

This is one of the best sits ever!!!  John and Mary are terrific, generous and helpful, plus good fun!!  The kids are amazing.  I fell in love with Scruffy immediately, but then Aldo fell in love with little Buddy.  A shy little guy who is just a little sweetheart!!  Finn the kitten is a living little soul full of play!  And Fifi is a grand old lady!  Mac comes around every day to make his presence known and is very very friendly!  The home is a dream and if you are ever lucky enough to be invited, snap it up!!!  You won't be sorry!  I miss them all!!

Markus

Thank you Markus & Taylor, It was a pleasure to look after the 'animal kingdom' in their own home together. Cash is such a loving and cuddly dog; Lumos and Daisy were easy cats to hang out with the dog and rabbit too. Thank you for teaching me about your 3 Sugar Gliders nocturnal nature as they are amazing. I especially enjoyed playing with Cash in the spacious backyard. I appreciate all your efforts to make me feel so welcome. It would be a pleasure to sit again for you all again. Cheers  Michele

Del

Thanks Del, for the chance to visit Luxembourg. It was easy to get by train to Trier and Metz for lovely day trios, too. Your home is very comfortable with every modern convenience! The backyard was peaceful and private and a lovely place to relax after sightseeing. I appreciate you picking me up at the train station and giving me a tour of Luxembourg City so that I had my bearings quickly. All your instructions were excellent, too.
Mostly, I loved having Mr. Bigglesworth for company and he was very comfy curled up next to me in bed! 
You have a lovely home! Many thanks. Karen

Sharon

I had a great short sit in Sharon's wonderful, clean home with Rico. The location is perfect, with the C-train close by and a large mall across the street. Communication was excellent and Sharon did her best to ensure the sit went smoothly for me.
Rico isn't the cuddliest cat but he had his routines and would ask for attention when he wanted it. He was pretty tolerant of his insulin injections, which I appreciated. I would be very happy to hang out with Rico again should dates align.

Darelynn

I didn’t get to meet Darelynn, but she was very communicative and provided me with all the information I needed to take care of Stella and the home before I arrived. Don’t tell the others…but Stella has become one of my favorite pups to sit! Oh goodness, she is the cutest. Smart, chill, and a beautiful soul that will cuddle with you and go on lovely walks with you. She was my New Years date and I wouldn’t have had it any other way! I hope to sit for Stella again.

Jenny

This place was excellent! The owners were very communicative and available when I had questions or concerns. The cats themselves were generally very good, but would occasionally leap up on counters and knock things over (but cats do that!). They always thought every time I went towards the kitchen was feeding time, but that was not always the case! Ha ha! They were a super fun pair of cats and would be enjoyable to watch for any lover of felines!
