This was our very first time using the service and we were absolutely blown away by Dian's approach from start to finish. Being a highly-rated and experienced cat-sitter, Dian reached out to us in less than a day and make the process much easier for us. Recognizing that we were new to the world of cat-sitting, she guided us through everything and even arrived early to help us out. We returned to find two happy cats, a spotlessly clean apartment stocked with fresh groceries and meals ahead of our arrival. Dian even put her own plans on standby to stay longer just in case we got delayed in returning home. She went above and beyond our expectations and we were absolutely delighted to hear that she enjoyed her time cat-sitting for us. Dian is a genuine cat lover. The feeling is mutual -the cats loved her instantly and she dedicated her time to lavishing attention on them. She found inventive ways to get both cats to participate in play even though one of the cats overshadowed his shy brother and wanted all of the attention. It was very reassuring to know the cats were in such good hands and she did everything possible to make them feel relaxed. Dian is very thoughtful and proactive always anticipating future needs. She selflessly shares her experience and expertise when it comes to cats, she observes each cat and knows how to keep them stimulated. Personally we learned so much from her about the best types of toys and games to use to keep each cat entertained and she sent us photos and videos regularly so we could see what our cats were doing in our absence. Clearly we missed the cats more than they missed us and that in itself is a testament to Dian's great way with cats. She prioritized the happiness and well-being of the cats even above her own plans and chose to maximize her time with them. Dian gave us a great recommendation for a lovely hiking route in our area, left us some thoughtful notes about other things the cats would enjoy and even left us a little gift to thank us for trusting her to look after our cats and our home. It goes without saying that Dian is 100% welcome to come back to us and we would wholeheartedly recommend her as the cat-sitter of choice.

Bernard
Bernard and Theresa were very welcoming. Monty the dog was a delight no problem. They live close to Victoria Park which at this time of year is beautiful. My stay was peaceful and enjoyed my stay in Bath.

Rachel
Rachel's house was the 1st one I house sat for, in the UK, and let me tell you she truly set the expectations high for all the following house sits I booked.
Her and her family were amazing, very welcoming, polite and caring. Always making sure I had everything I needed and always making sure I understood everything. Don't even get me started on their pets, Hoagy was playful and full of energy. And their cats for sure turned me into a cat person.
Truly can't express how grateful I am for meeting them and getting to spend time with them and their pets. Anyone would be extremely lucky to house sit for Rachel & Danny.

Elspeth
Super cute, affectionate and very well-behaved dog. Excellent when out walking. Cat is also very sweet and loves being stroked. The house is fabulous! The area is lovely with beautiful walks. The pub nearby serves great food and the staff are very friendly. I thoroughly recommend this sit.

Maja
We absolutely loved Maja's family home. Betty is a real character and always kept us company around the house. We enjoyed taking her around to her favourite spot Richmond Park which is less than a 10 minute walk from the house. Drake and the fish were easy to care for. 

Maja was very hospitable (very kindly letting us use their food) and has a lovely home. Maja also left us helpful recommendations for places to visit in the local area.

Thanks again, we are already missing Betty!!

Suzanne
This sit with Molly and Elsa was such an enjoyable one. I would not hesitate to sit for Suzanne again. Molly was a lovely sweet dog always wanting company and stayed very close to me - a social and playful dog. Elsa the cat was a bit less interactive and managed to be more illusive but was still home bound every afternoon for her dinner! 
Suzanne was very hospitable and made everything very easy and streamlined for me. I really enjoyed my time at this sit and are so pleased to have been given the pleasure of Molly’s company for all that time.

This was a DREAM housesit, beginning with my first conversation with Jim right up until the end. Everything was absolutely perfect, from their beautiful, well stocked home to their awesome animals to their amazing location with nearby hikes, parks, shops and great restaurants/cafes. 

Bear was such a joy to take on our daily afternoon outing to the local park and all the other hikes and parks we found nearby. He’s so well trained and also so lovely and sweet. The cats warmed up to me after a couple of days and I’m sure you’ll fall in love with them too! They all have their own unique personalities and are a breeze to take care of. I’d highly recommend this sit and can’t wait to return when I’m back in the area.
