Cat Sitters in Highclere

Bruno & Amy

Bruno and Amy's dedication to animal care and the property was second to none. It can be a gamble having strangers but nothing to worry about with them. We said we didn't need updates as no news is good news but still received emails with beautiful photos. Hopefully, not just sitters but lifelong friends have now been made.

Jo & Paul

I can’t praise and thank Jo & Paul enough for the care they took of our home and our dogs whilst we were away. Oscar and Maggie were comfortable with them right from their arrival to the point they genuinely seemed disappointed when we got home 🤣 They went out on great walks every day and Jo sent us pics and updates daily which was fantastic as we rarely go away without them and missed them. It was so reassuring to know how well they were being looked after and enabled us to really relax and enjoy our holiday. Yum Yum their dog was an added bonus as they all bonded so well together. She is such a super calm gentle girl, not at all pushy which was perfect. Jo looked after our plants and we came home to a spotless house, contented dogs and milk in the fridge for a cuppa! We couldn’t have asked for more Thanks Jo Paul & Yum! If you are lucky and they have availability for your dates all we can say is SNAP THEM UP!!!

Sian & Matt

Sian came to look after our babies for 5 days while we went camping. She did the most amazing job. The house was immaculate on our return and all the animals were very happy! Would highly recommend her she was a very trustworthy first sit for us! Thank you Sian!

Stan

Stan is an absolute GEM! From the first zoom to daily communication and photo and video updates. Stan has a wealth of knowledge on dogs so it was a no brainer to accept his offer to sit for Dorothy. He was patient and kind and such a support to her introducing her to a new area to walk and making new friends. Dorothy is partially sighted and it’s been tricky for me with only having a ready trained dog before hand. I’m so grateful to Stan for the training he gave Dorothy while sitting her and the care and attention. My home was left clean and tidy and I would 100% book Stan to stay again if he would like to! Thank you Stan!

Alayne

Hector was brilliantly cared for while we were away, and the house was left in a wonderful condition upon our return. Would use again, and recommend!

Lorraine & Paul

Lorraine and Paul cared for our house and Pippa as we would have done. We were very pleased and would have them again without hesitation.

Joshua & Sarah

Josh and Sarah were the most delightful couple. They were very responsive when we first made contact. They arrived a day early so we could go through all our pets' routines and they were really caring and diligent. All animals were very calm on our return - it was as if we hadn't been away! I would thoroughly recommend Josh and Sarah and would definitely have them back here.

Ian

This was the second year that Benedita and Ian have looked after our house/pets. The fact that we were really happy that they were able to return and this in itself shows how highly we regard them. I sincerely hope that they will be available for our next holiday.

Leah & Rob

Leah was completely wonderful. Very good at communicating and, once she was happy with how to best look after our dogs and home, very self-sufficient. Our house was IMMACULATE when we returned so we'd try and get her back in a heartbeat. THANK YOU LEAH!

Jenna

Jenna was fantastic looking after my dog and cat for two weeks. My dog Ruby can be quite sensitive and overexcitable. Jenna was extremely patient with her and kept me updated. I would recommend her she looked after them so well. The house was left clean and tidy, ready for the next sitter!

Pamela & Ryan

Pamela and her family were great sittters. Betty was well looked after. They left the house clean and tidy, washed their sheets and towels. i would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Trish

Trish was super relaxed about the pet sit even though we would have left already. Great communication before and during the sit My friends said the place was spotless when they arrived for the next stay. Would not hesitate to highly recommended Trish A****

Russell

This was Lisa and Arjen’s second time staying with Scotch. He loved having them again!

Marina

Laura and Daniel were brilliant, I can’t recommend them more.
They looked after Bosun and our house beautifully. We came back to a happy dog, a very clean & tidy house ( having washed the bedding and remade the bed) and some home made bread and food.
It was lovely to meet them and hear about their travels.
We very much hope that they will come back.
