Cat Sitters in Crayford

Katie

Katie is a delightful, kind and conscientious animal lover who I highly recommend. She took great care of my much loved Irish Terrier and ginger tom cat while we were on holiday, and sent regular updates and photos which was appreciated by all the family. She came to my house prior to the sit so that I could meet her and introduce her to the animals who she clearly felt comfortable with. The house was organised and clean on our return, and nothing was too much trouble for Katie, including staying home on several occasions to take delivery of parcels during our absence. I was able to relax and enjoy my holiday knowing that my pets and home were being well looked after by her. Thank you Katie.

Francesca

Francesca is a wonderful house sitter. The actual sit could have gone smoother but that wasn’t Francesca’s fault (jammed key safe, broken cat bowl) but she handled all these challenges with charm and grace. She’s great to communicate with and clearly wonderful with pets. I think my cats are missing her.

Lesley

I can highly recommend Lesley as a a Zeewoi. She was wonderfully easy going to make arrangements with, cared for our dogs brilliantly and kept us informed with photos of how they were doing. The house was tidy when we returned and we would not hesitate to invite her back again!

Georgie

Georgie was great. She and Gus got along really well and we were able to relax knowing she was looking after him. She took him for lots of long walks and met up with his doggy friends in the village. He looked quite bereft when the time came for her to leave. Not only that the house looked immaculate when we returned. Georgie was an absolute godsend and a pleasure to meet and get to know. I hope we will see her again!

Tina

Tina is AMAZING. We’re so glad we found her. Our dog Lily loves her, and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. Tina’s communication before and during the sit was impeccable, she arrived the exact minute she said she would, and was kind enough to come the day before we travelled so that Lily could adjust. She continued to get to know Lily really well, observing things that only a dedicated pet parent would, and checking in about things a perfect amount, which let us know she was taking really good care of her. Our house was spotless, and our plants were thriving, and we couldn’t have been happier. Happy dog and happy holidays for us!

Ed

We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Ed! He took excellent care of Snoopy while we were away on holiday. He sent us updates and pictures, and in general was very professional, reliable, and was great at communicating with us before and during the sit. He looked after the house really well too, it was just as we left it. Highly recommend Ed for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Carrie

It was lovely meeting Carrie and Oliver and they were brilliant with communication before the sit and sent me lovely updates during the sit. They looked after my pets really well. A brilliant sit!

Elliott

Elliott and Lindsay were wonderful housesitters. Their dog Piper was a delight. She got on so well with our 2 dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and we’d definitely love for them to stay again.

Mark & Laura

Mark and Laura were excellent house sitters. They looked after our cat and dog exceptionally well, left the house spotless and were very organised prior to the sit beginning. We would have no hesitation recommending them for a future sit if they wish to do so again.

Alice

Thank you Alice for looking after Coco & Lullah. You did an amazing job, you loved the dogs left everything spotless and kept me fully informed. I would highly recommend you. Can’t wait for you to come back.

Ignacio

Ignacio and Irene were great, self-sufficient sitters. The cats were well looked-after and they were super easy to communicate with throughout the sit.

Siobhan

Siobhan was a brilliant pet sitter - relaxed and confident with plenty of big jumpy dog experience! She always answered my messages, turned up early and was so friendly and easy to talk to. She sent us pics and videos so we could see what a great time Pouncer was having while we were away. Pouncer immediately warmed to her and he obviously behaved really well for her. She said he was easy to walk despite his strong and sometimes stubborn Labrador ways! She made the whole experience easy- we highly recommend.

Carol and Jacqui

We were so delighted with Cyrille as our house sitter. He made every effort to make the sit a success. Including a visit prior to the sit to familiarise himself with the dogs, house, and routines. He arrived the day before we left and kept us informed while away. We not only returned to a spotless home and very happy puppies....he prepared a lovely 2 course meal . A godsend after a long travel.
We can only sing Cyrille's praises as a fantastic reliable dog/ house sitter, a delightful,amicable and very interesting person and real pleasure to have in our home.
I would hands down recommend him and hope he would sit for us again ad it was obvious he nurtured a lovely bond with our dogs....so much so, Blue is still looking out the window for him.
