Cat Sitters in Darton

Robin & Julie

It was so lovely to have Robin and Julie house sit for us. The cats adored them and were well looked after. The house was immaculate when we returned and they were very self sufficient. We hope to see you both again sometime

Helen & Ryan

What a pleasure to meet Helen & Ryan and have them sit with our much loved very senior Frenchie girl Laila. They came over to us for a visit a few weeks before and we were so impressed with Helen’s questions to us about Laila's daily routine and care. Super organised and caring couple and anybody having them to sit with their beloved pets would be very lucky indeed. The Cottage was left in sparkling condition and we were very touched by the lovely card and box of chocolates Helen & Ryan left for us. Just super people!!!

Deborah

Deborah was terrific. My lab Xanda was lost without her pal Riley who died recently. Deborah gave her a lots of care and attention. She took her to the beach, cafes and church! The house was immaculate on my return and she had baked a chocolate cake for the arrival of my daughter later in the day.

Amber

Amber was wonderful. She was great with Linnie who really loved her. Communication was excellent before during and after the sit. I loved the photos she sent of Linnie while I was away. The house was left clean and tidy, the bedding was even washed and left out to dry and Linnie was totally relaxed and happy when I got home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Amber to house and pet sit. I hope she will come to house sit with Linnie again.

Julie

Julie was absolutely wonderful. Such a gift to have her look after our little Havanese dog, Rocky who bonded with Julie immediately. Couldn't recommend Julie more highly.

Megan

Megan and Amanda were absolutely top notch Petsitters for our furry family of four! They kept us updated with sweet photos & video, and it was clear that our two pups & two cats loved them—-they could often be found snuggled up on or next to them. We were also so happy that we got to have some nice time together before we departed on our travels. Megan & Amanda are both so warm, kind, funny & interesting humans, with great energy. I hope very much that our paths will cross again. In short, we would very highly recommend them for any pet or home sits!

Caroline

This was our second time having Cass sit for Puffin and Squirrel - we’re so glad she was able to come back again. Cass sent regular updates and was very communicative about her arrival and departure plans. The cats were very comfortable with her and she left the house in such great shape! Would welcome her back anytime.

Sarah

The cats took to Sarah like duck to water (after a day of usual sussing out) and we are sure the cats loved Sarah. The house was left clean and tidy, and grateful to Sarah for washing the bedsheets :)

Letty

Letty was wonderful - fun and flexible and left the pets very happy and the house in perfect nick. I hope she will come back!

Vanderley

Vanderley was a wonderful pet-sitter. He took great care of Yoda and our house. He was very responsive and sent us occasional photos of Yoda. When we returned, Yoda seemed very happy and well-looked after. We would definitely welcome Vanderley back any time. Thank you! :)

Gillian & Graham

Gill and Graham were absolutely lovely house sitters. They went out of their way to come down to Devon the night before we left in order to meet us and Jess before departure and it was a real pleasure to meet them. While we were away they kept us updated with how they were getting on and when we got back not only was the house immaculate but they wrote us a gorgeous card. I would highly recommend Gill and Graham as sitters!

Claire & Steven

Windy

Rhianna and Shane were the perfect house and pet sitters! From the first time we video chatted, I felt comfortable leaving my two high maintenance dogs with them. They came prior to their stay to meet the dogs and go over everything to include their food, walk, and medicine routine. During their stay, they kept me informed of how things were going and even offered to let me video chat with the pups on Christmas day. The pups decided to sleep with them, so I know they took to Shane and Rhianna! They left the house in excellent shape and cleaned more than they needed to. I definitely plan to have them petsit again if they are available. Highly recommend both of them to others looking for trustworthy and professional pet/house sitters.

Mallory

Very happy with John! We came home after two weeks in Arizona and our two dogs and two cats were as happy as can be. Our home was tidy just as we had left it.
