Pet Sitters in Brackley

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.

Sophie

We can't praise Sophie highly enough. She was very communicative before the sit so we already had a good idea of what to expect. When Sophie arrived she fitted right in and we felt we were leaving our property and animals in excellent hands. Her fluent French was a big advantage and she charmed our French cleaner along with everyone else she met. We were confident that she could deal with any issues that might arise but luckily on this trip nothing very serious did. Sophie fed and walked the dogs every day and looked after the cat, guinea pigs and horses. The horses were living out and Sophie applied fly spray at intervals and also fed them in the field. She was a hit with our children too! I would absolutely recommend Sophie for another house sit. She is confident, caring and capable of dealing with virtually anything, not to mention she is great fun to spend some time with. Since this sit, Sophie has been back to visit us again and sat for 2 shorter spells where she had a few issues and coped amazingly.

Simon

I can't recommend Simon enough! I found him very reliable and trustworthy. I was in ease, knowing that my dogs were in good care with Simon. I received regular updates and pictures about the boys. Communication was smooth. I would choose Simon to look after my dogs again without hesitation.

lauren

Lauren was an excellent house sitter and took diligent care of our cat Pippi. She was so friendly and relaxed yet clearly took the job of connecting with Pippi seriously — we think Pippi actually misses her! The garden needed light care which was undertaken perfectly too. All communications were super friendly. Highly recommend the lovely Lauren ✨

Kylie

Kylie has been an amazing sitter, from the beginning I felt safe and relaxed knowing that my cat and my home would be in good hands with her. She has been flexible and easy to communicate with all along. I regularly received news & pictures and I get back home welcomed by a happy cat and a cleaned house. Kylie is such a nice and reliable person, I highly recommend her :) Thank you so much Kylie!!

Shannon

Shannon was such a lovely sitter, really kind and personable. I reached out for an overnight sit and she was more than happy to help replying very quickly! House was left very tidy and Shannon kept me updated! Thank you

Christopher

Christopher came and sat for Dexter for 1 week. It was a really good experience. Chris connected with us before the sit and visited to ensure we were aligned and comfortable. Chris then arrived promptly and made a great connection with Dexter. While we were away Chris gave regular updates including pictures of Dexter on a walk and relaxed at home, we really appreciated the updates. When we returned Dexter had clearly been well looked after. The house was in great shape, super clean and tidy. We would love to welcome Chris back and would fully recommend him for other sits

Ellie

Since being back the cats have been extra cuddly which shows us they had a lot of affection while we were gone. She is clearly a real animal lover. The house was lovely and clean for us on return. There was a slight drama involving the keys where she got locked out but she dealt with it really well and we knew the pets were in good care with her. Many thanks Ellie!

Jade & Tabitha

We loved having them sit for our cat Kairos. The cat took to them well and they were clearly very kind and caring. They even gave her meds using the syringe, which can be tricky. The house was also well looked after and they sent us updates and photos of our cat having a lovely time. Would be open to having them back if they would like to sit again. Thanks so much Tabitha and Jade, we felt Kairos was in really safe hands. I hope you enjoyed your time here.

Fiona

Fiona and Rosie were amazing! They quickly got to know the dogs and Colin, and we could see that everyone was going to get on famously. Communication while we were away was excellent, the house was clean and tidy when we arrived home. We would highly recommend Fiona and her family to any house sit. We would love to have Fiona back at any time she can make it.

Stephanie

Michael

Carole and Ron Hutchinson are THE BEST EVER. They were perfect in every way. They took great care of our 2 punks Miro and Luna. They played with the guys and spoiled them. They shared almost professional photos. And they also took care of our big house as well. The house was immaculate when we returned. And it was a long house sit-2 weeks. I only hope we can get them again to take care of house and maine coons. 10 stars if possible. If they respond to anyone out there  grab them. Thank you Carole and Ron.

Connie

Connie's house was in a great location in North Dallas. My room was very lovely with a comfortable bed and a desk to work on. The bathroom was huge. This was a big backyard with a hot tub that I had not used because it rained alot. 

Atticus and Zoe are sweet dogs. They are larger dogs and very active  and  playful. They go out their doggy door to do their business which makes it nice that you don't have to walk them in the hot or rainy weather.  They are crate trained and super easy to get them in their crates. I was totally amazed. 

I would say that it was a farily easy sit and pleasant home to spend a few weeks.

Gry

What an incredible house site - Gry was the most welcoming host ever - I stayed the night with her and she hosted me so nicely, showed me around and left me all the creature comforts I could need. Rafael was such a sweet dog and was so well behaved, we had a lovely time together and enjoyed exploring the local area which is beautiful - thanks Gry and Rafael, Mehalah

Patrick

I had the most wonderful staycation with Popeye! It took maybe a day for him to get used to a new person taking care of him… after that he’s super talkative and LOVES being pet. He eats when he wants… as he should. He really is the most well behaved boy. Dani and Patrick were just wonderful! We met a few days before our sit for them to explain the ins and outs of their BEAUTIFUL flat!!! We had a lovely chat and I was warmly welcomed into their home. They were available all the time for any qs over WhatsApp. They really do love Popeye and were very happy to see him. It’s very easy to get to and from with public transport and I’d be back to look after popeye in a heartbeat :) all the best 💗

Diane

Vaughan and Diane are such a welcoming and friendly couple! They bent over backward to make sure my arrival and stay were comfortable. Their home is beautiful and the village is quaint and perfect for chatting in the local pub! Their dogs, Kym and Darcy, are incredibly sweet and easy-going girls, and it was a pleasure to have them act as my tour guides on several hikes in the Quantocks

Bryan

We had a fabulous time at Jilly and Bryan’s farmhouse in rural Brittany. We were welcomed the night before with a beautiful meal and breakfast the following morning before Jilly and Brian departed. The doggy duo, Purdey and Dora were a joy to look after, very affectionate and well mannered. Dora enjoyed a long walk every morning and she is very well-trained and obedient. Purdey being a lot older was happy to run about the garden. We enjoyed the best eggs ever from the 5 hens and were amused by the antics of Knit, Purl and Cable the miniature sheep. Trouvée the barn cat was always pleased to see us, she could never decide which she wanted more - strokes or her food! Purdey and Dora could be left for up to 5 hours, the coast and Quimper are easily accessible and there are plenty of good restaurants nearby. We were very comfortable in our own room with ensuite, the house is really cosy and we enjoyed the log fire at night with Dora and Purdey as companions. We had a fantastic experience, thank you.

Cristiane

I had a short but memorable time in Zeist with Dippie and Panda 🐾. Both cats are super easy. They love playing, jumping around and will give you great company. The house and garden are perfect for enjoying your stay in Zeist, which is great for hiking through forests and meadows or taking trips to Utrecht. Thanks again Cristiane and Mathij for your hospitality.
