Dog Sitters in Brentwood

Delighted with Tyler and Emma. They were very flexible which allowed us to meet them briefly before we left. Good communication and the dogs clearly had a wonderful time. House was clean and tidy on our return. Would definitely have them back again if they’d come. Thanks.

Mark was excellent! He kept in touch with daily photo +/- video updates, and I could tell my pets loved him! I'm also pretty sure he left my house tidier than I did. 100% would be happy for him to come back!

It was a joy to have Lucy, James and Nellie look after River and our home for a week whilst we were out of the country. Prior to the stay, they made time to meet in person nearby to ensure that River and their lovely dog Nellie got along well and any questions could be addressed. Throughout this time, they were friendly and communicative, making it very easy to learn more about them, the stay they wanted, and their past experiences house and dog-sitting. Before our departure, James came round to collect the keys and receive a tour of the house. They both asked a lot of good questions about how to best care for River and how to behave when out and about - demonstrating their love of dogs and their care to us as owners. Whilst on holiday, we received regular updates on both River and our home and Zoe and I felt continually assured that we were in good hands. Before we returned home, James and Lucy went out of their way to ensure our home was immaculately cleaned, with the fridge and cupboards cleared of any of their food, bins taken out, house vacuumed and sheets changed and washed. They truly went above and beyond to leave our home spotless! James then dropped River off - she was very sad to see the three of them go; a clear sign of the bond that they formed over the week. We have no hesitation when recommending the three of them - your pets and home will be well looked after by a lovely couple and Nellie is great company for any dog!

Liz and Rob were fantastic sitters, we zoomed before they came and Liz asked lots of questions and gave us lots of information about them and their previous sits. We communicated before they arrived and they left really early to get to us as we also had a long drive. The dogs took to them straight away, they were calm and not upset at us leaving at all! Liz and Rob looked after 5 lambs, my chickens and new chicks, Liz was able to give me some great advice being an ex veterinary nurse. The animals and house had obviously been well looked after, they left us some plants and a lovely card as thanks and Liz had even cooked us a scrumptious veg curry. I would thoroughly recommend them as housesitters and would love to ask them back.

Despite initial difficulties in contacting Laura and Alex ahead of their sit, they arrived punctually and we had a pleasant evening settling them into the house and area and getting to know Murphy. During the sit we received several updates on Murphy which was reassuring. However, sadly the last day of sit did not go so well. On arriving back at the airport after a 7 hour flight, a message from them revealed they had left early without walking Murphy which resulted in him being left in the house on his own for 9 hours. Clearly this was very distressing and could have easily been avoided with a quick message the previous day to enable me to arrange a friend to walk and look after Murphy. On my return the house was clean and tidy but Murphy was understandably distressed after such a long time alone. I am sure that Laura and Alex will understand that this was far from ideal and such a situation will not happen again.

Bronwyn and Stefan were reliable and very communicative across the sit. Considering we organised it at very short notice, they showed up on time and kept us updated with how Luna was doing daily. They left the house in the same condition we left it in and replaced any food they ate from our cupboards Would recommend

From the moment we spoke to Abby, we knew she would be just the perfect fit for our cats and the house and garden. She is an incredibly sensitive and caring person - taking proper time to listen to and understand the very particular needs (and medication) for Mabel and Bertie, and always seeking to put their needs first. She clearly loves animals and has a deep understanding and connection with them. Abby looked after the house and garden so well, helping out in our veg garden with the tomatoes (which needed a lot of care), digging over beds, weeding and planting more crops - something she's also really passionate about. She even left us jars of delicious homemade tomato chutney! The house was looked after so well too and communication was always immediate and reliable - something we really valued, being so far away at the time. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending Abby - and would have her back in a flash to stay and to look after the cats again. Thank you!

Joe was a great sitter, who I’d happily ask to look after Dillon and Flo again. He was communicative before, during and after the sit and the cats seemed very content when I got back home. Joe left the house in a clean and tidy state too.

Sarah, Sam and Dexter were the perfect house sitters. We had a call before the sit to discuss the animals we had and the types of care needed. Sarah explained her experience and how they liked to work so we felt it was a perfect fit from the start. We did a handover before we went away and had a chance to get to know the family and show them the ropes. Sam took lots of videos and photos during the handover so he could refer to them if needed. We got regular updates with videos and photos which made us feel that all the animals were being cared for well. If there was anything unsure of we kept in touch via WhatsApp which helped. We had a poorly lamb and Sam ensures she was being well looked after. On return the house was lovely and clean and Sarah had even done some washing for our holiday let whilst we were away. Both Sarah and Sam went over and above what was expected of them during the sit and their son Dexter is well behaved and a joy who made himself at home quickly. We would have no hesitation on recommending them for anyone who wants to feel confident that their home and animals are being cared for. We feel we have made three new friends now and hope to keep in touch.

Duncan and Sue are fabulous Zeewoi. They looked after our dogs, Humphrey and Basil, in the best way possible with lots of very long walks and lots of love, so much so that I think the dogs were rather disappointed to see us return! Duncan kept us updated every day with news of what they had done that day. The house was spotlessly clean on our return. I would 100% recommend them, and I hope that they might return to us one day.

Denise was a dream cat sitter! She came round before the sit to meet Flexie, see the house, and to collect the keys. Denise has a great energy and loved Flexie right away. She provided regular updates on how Flexie was getting on. When we got home the house was cleaner and tidier than when we left. Flexie was also very happy. I will definitely be interested in having Denise sit for us again. All in all, Denise was a fantastic sitter!

Charming couple very respective to the house and attentive and considerate to our dogs.
