Cat Sitters in Grindleford

Jack

Jack and Amy were super sitters and looked after the pets really well - Lola seemed a very happy girl on our return. They left the house clean and tidy and kindly stripped the bed too! They were very responsive in the lead up to their arrival with various messages we exchanged regarding the sit & timings. I would have no hesitation in asking them to our home again -thank you .

Shauna

Shauna and Mark and their children were really lovely. Very organised and were fantastic with our animals. They sent me updates to let me know how the dogs were getting on while I was away, which was very reassuring. I would recommend them as housesitters.

Alice

Clemy absolutely loves having Alice and Christie to stay! I think this was their third or fourth visit and just as it was for previous visits, everything was perfect. They always make it so easy for us to go away and they follow our (detailed) instructions to the Ietter. I can't recommend them enough! We're very fortunate that they like staying in our Park Hill flat and we hope to be able to welcome them on many more occasions.

Tom

Heather and Tom looked after our house, dog, cats, bantams and sheep for two weeks and we returned to a clean tidy house and a very contented menagerie who had all clearly been well looked after. Communication before during and after the sit was all very easy and we would be very happy to have them return and sit for them again.

Sarah

Although the sit was only short Sarah proved to be an excellent sitter. Good communication before and during the sit reassured me. She was keen to get to know the cats and they did warm to her which was great. Sarah sent updates as requested and the house was clean and tidy when I returned. Excellent!

Rebecca

Rebecca was a fabulous housesitter, taking care of our two young Maine Coon cats for a week. Rebecca was very flexible with timings - arriving at 9am on the first day so we could do an in person handover before setting off which was great. Rebecca gave us regular photo and video updates and the cats were clearly very happy and well cared for. We came back to a wonderfully clean home and two very happy cats. Thanks Rebecca!

Georgia & Clement

Georgia exceeded all of our expectations. She seemed to understand how nice it is to get frequent updates about our kitty Eli. This included posts in WhatsApp with pictures and messages. It was clear the loved kitties and Eli loved her. I felt like we made a friend from "across the pond" . I hope our paths cross again someday.

Anna

Anna was absolutely brilliant- a wonderful pet-sitter and took excellent care of our house! She was very communicative, super clean, and kindly sent us some videos of Yoda while we were away and he was very happy. Her lovely little daughter was also a perfect pet companion! Thank you very much! We would strongly recommend Anna! :)

Helen

Helen came to visit us for 2.5 weeks over Christmas, and was a lovely house sitter! I swear our cat, Beryl, barely noticed we were leaving; she was comfortable with Helen very quickly after arrival. Helen has a calming atmosphere which was perfect. Helen also respected that Beryl is not the most friendly, and gave the space needed for Beryl to warm up to her. I got photos as often as I asked for them, and updates about how Beryl would get comfortable enough to give head bumps and purr when scratch (an achievement!). There was a small medical issue, and Helen let me know right away, working with me to make sure I had all the details to make the best decision for Beryl. As a house sitter, she was very tidy! She had stripped the bedding and washed it before our return, the place was mopped, and the kitchen was as we had left it. Helen would be welcome back at any time to visit Beryl. :)

Kara & John

Kara and John did an amazing job looking after my boys Stanley and Ren whilst I was away for the weekend playing golf. I knew as soon as we FaceTimed that they would be perfect, as they are a very kind and caring couple. I would have no hesitation recommending them through zeewoi. Thank you both xx

Evie & Willy

Evie was a great sitter. She took care of Selena really well and I got lots of updates!

R

Took great care of our house and cat Ziggy! Gave us frequent updates and was always available over whatsapp. Really nice guy, would reccomend!

Andria

Michelle was a wonderful housesitter.  The kitties were very mellow and happy with her.  We really appreciated the videos and text updates that she provided.  We would welcome her to housesit in the future.  She was extremely tidy, left the house beautiful and ready for us.  A wonderful, kind lady.

Robin

Abigail and Juan were wonderful. They were walking into a difficult sitting situation, as we're in the midst of redoing one of our bathrooms, with workers on site. They were kind and accommodating about our construction, and they were great with our dogs and cat. We came home to happy animals and a very clean house. We highly recommend Abigail and Juan!
