Cat Sitters in Firhouse

Aoife

Teddy had the best time. Aoife was very helpful and so great with Teddy while I was away. Thank you for taking so well care of my dog and home.

Denise

We had Denise house sit for a weekend and look after our cat, Simba, and she did an amazing job! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and it gave us peace of mind knowing she was taking such great care of our home and Simba. Simba usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but they hit it off right away. Denise's attention to Simba, especially when she first came over to meet us and Simba, made all the difference and gave us that extra peace of mind. Highly recommend Denise for anyone looking for a reliable and caring house sitter!"

Clodagh

Clodagh did a wonderful job looking after our cat Susie! This was our first time having a sitter for Susie, who we just recently adopted, and so we were quite anxious about how it would go. Needless to say - Clodagh knew our worries and made sure to keep us updated, be gentle with introduction and overall give Susie a 5/5 treatment. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy cat! Can only recommend Clodagh and hope she can come back to ours sometime!

Sebastián

This was an amazing experience!! Sebastian took care of my two cats for ca. 2 weeks, while I was on my vacations. He is a very friendly and communicative young man; he was also flexible and adapted easily to my travels. During the sit Sebastian kept me up-dated all the time via WhatsApp sending me also photos & films of my cats (I asked him to do so) :-) He had a very good contact with both of my cats, and they felt comfortable during the whole sit. But Sebastian did not only sit the cats and take care of the house.... he also repaired my bike! After arrival he welcomed me at home and we had an interesting chat. The house was spotless, cats - happy, and my houseplants were good also :-) I would definitely welcome Sebastian again as a sitter, if his travel plans should again concern Switzerland!

Aimee

Aimee was the perfect sitter for my kitties! Communication was excellent and she was the sweetest sitter we could have asked for!

Jane

Jane was a wonderful sitter, easy communication and very complimentary about the pets, which is always a relief that everyone is bonding well. I would have her back in a heartbeat!

Willian & Eimear

Willian and Eimear were absolutely fantastic and I'd recommend them to anyone. Very autonomous, great communication and left the place spotless. Plus they're simply fabulous people!

Rory

Rory was a fantastic sitter for Chia once again!

India

India was completely beyond our expectations as a catsitter—almost a cat whisperer? In any case, our very shy little boy cuddled right up to her, and both cats were happy and calm when we arrived home. Our house was left in great shape, too. I could not recommend her more highly as a housesitter/petsitter.

Beatriz

Bea and Ali were super house sitters over christmas!! We have two spirited pooches and they had no issues with our strong willed dogs at all. They communicated well and sent us lots of pics of our boys who were looked after so well. They kept the house neat and tidy and we hardly knew they were there after they had left. We would, and hopefully will, have them back in a heartbeat. Thanks a mill guys!!!

Diana & Riccardo

This was my first experience of using a sitting service and what can I say, Diana and her family allowed me to head off for a few days knowing that both my home and my pets were in very good hands! From the moment they arrived, they were warm and friendly and I could have stayed chatting to them for hours. My home was left in a spotless condition and the regular photo updates proved that my pets were very happy throughout 🐕🐈. I would highly recommend these three, thank you!

Lauren

Lauren was the first person I’ve left my 2 fur babies with. She sent me regular photos of my two babies & also let me know what she was up to. She really put my mind at ease. Considering she was looking after 2 St Bernards she managed to walk them together & kept them happy & safe for the weekend. Would highly recommend Lauren for looking after your fur babies ❤️

Bonne

I cannot be happier with Vanessa and Martin. They are wonderful pet sitters. My cats were happy and felt secure, which is unusual; my geriatric terrier didn’t stress; and, my sooky mastiff was made to feel appreciated, which is unusual as people tend to steer clear of his slobber.
As with the fur kids, my home was treated with respect. I returned to a spotless home and relaxed, happy pets.
Thank you so much for your help Vanessa and Martin. It truly was a pleasure meeting you and having you here.

Andrea

Claire and Tony have been wonderful from the start. They’re very caring and kind and Cura took to them straight away. In fact when we returned she was clearly very fond of them, relaxed and happy. They’re a completely trustworthy couple and we’re so grateful to them for changing their own plans when ours changed quite a few times. They took everything in their stride and we felt 100% confident leaving our home and Cura in their care and they sent really gorgeous videos and pics during our trip which were such a joy to receive. Their dog, Amos, is gorgeous and he and Cura got on really well – she's missing him! The house was beautifully clean and tidy when we returned home. Both Claire and Tony are lovely to get along with and communicate with, and always replying quickly to messages. We can’t thank them enough for all the love and attention they gave Cura, taking her on lots of exciting walks and adventures! They would be very, very welcome to come back anytime. Not only will I be pleased to see them again, but I know Cura will be thrilled too!
