Dog Sitters in Coombe Bissett

From agreeing to the sit, right through to heading home, everything was excellent. Terry and Ursula communicated well with us from the beginning, and sent us regular updates and photos while we were away. They were relaxed and friendly and the dogs took to them straight away. We felt very confident that they would be able to cope with our dogs, and we had no worries while we were away. They obviously had a lot of fun together. The dogs and the house were very well cared for and we would have no hesitation in recommending them. Thank you so much, Terry and Ursula, and we hope you will be able to sit for us again.

Sarah and Frank were fantastic house and pet sitters - we feel very lucky to have had such lovely people here! Our dog is missing them. I would heartily recommend them to anyone else.

Jacqui arrived on time and came well-prepared. She is friendly and her love of animals is apparent. We were sitting another dog that day, so the three of us walked the dogs before dinner. After dinner, Riesling acted aggressively to her without provocation. We were all absolutely stunned, as this was unprecedented behaviour. Jacqui offered to sit for Siggy and Woodstock if we could find another place for Riesling to stay. Unfortunately, we could not, and arranged for a family member to house sit. We greatly appreciated Jacqui’s kindness and flexibility and have reached out to a trainer to help us diagnose what might have caused Riesling’s behaviour, and to ensure that it never happens again. We would absolutely recommend Jacqui to others.

Brad and Heather were superb house sitters . They were organised and totally reliable. The dogs clearly loved them and they were beautifully looked after and much loved! On our return the house was immaculately clean and tidy. I cannot recommend Brad and Heather more highly and we would love to have them here again when we next go away. Thank you for everything Brad and Heather.

Great sitter who came last minute for a night to help me out and walked Ditto on the beach. Please come back again soon!

This is the 2nd time we were lucky enough to have Chris look after our dogs, cat and house. Excellent communication including a wonderful video of the dogs on Willa's 7th birthday! He stayed on for an extra night to help us out which was very kind and much appreciated. Delightful and would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone.

Angele did a great job looking after our menagerie and plants for nearly 3 weeks. She is a natural with poultry and she was very diligent about caring for them. All the other animals were also well cared for. She was highly organised in the run up to the sit and she needed very little advice while we were away. The plants were also well watered. Her dog is delightful and totally accepted the resident pets. I would certainly recommend Angele if you want a self-sufficient, cheerful house sitter and particularly if you have poultry!

Jaz and Leight were just the best in every way imagineable. We were very lucky to have found them. We came back to a fitter and happier dog than when we left. She was getting long long walks every day to new places and has now been pining for two days after their departure. She is clearly sad! Jaz and Leight are thoughtful, interesting and polite and know and love dogs. We got videos, pictures and updates daily of Nula and the house on our return was way cleaner than when we left. A real pleasure to get to know them as people and now, friends. If you have the opportunity to invite these two into your home - you will not be disapointed - and nor will your dog....

Jayne and Lee were excellent pet & house sitters. Our two dogs, Eddie and Winston were extremely well looked after, and we enjoyed receiving regular photos and updates of our “boys” from Jayne and Lee. Our house was immaculate on our return and it was lovely to catch up in person with Jayne and Lee before they set off. Eddie and Winston (who is currently pining a bit) and we would love to have Jayne and Lee back. We recommend them highly.

Kate James and two lovely children looked after our home and three dogs for three days. We couldn’t have wished for better. Our dogs were well looked after, played with, chilled with and were very happy. The house was immaculate and the little picture of ‘paw prints’ greatly appreciated. Recommend Kate and family without hesitation and do hope we can welcome them back.

Selim has been a regular house sitter for us and we are always thrilled when he can sit for us. The animals love him and we know we are leaving them and the house in safe hands. Highly recommend and wish he could sit for us every time!

As Carole noted, she and Alan had sat for Izzie previously. They were easy to make arrangements with for the dates we needed (they even changed their plans in order to take care of Izzie and the house). They were also good in giving us a daily update on Izzie with the occasional photo. We arrived home to a welcoming cat and a very clean and tidy home. We are more than happy to recommend Carole and Alan to others.
