Cat Sitters in Longniddry

Fran

Fran, and her son Angus, were great. They came out a day earlier, staying in a local hotel, in order to be available for a good hand-over the day of our departure. They were flexible on the day of our departure, tolerating our chaos and disorder with grace, even taking the dogs for a long walk while we fussed around the house, packing and loading the car. Fran regularly sent great photos of the two dogs, probably some of the best photos we have them. I want that camera. Both dogs were well cared for, and Ivys' food allergies well respected. The apartment was left clean and tidy, as well the fridge stocked with delicious meats and cheeses. Fran, come again. And here's hoping there are lot's of other house sits for you and yours in the future.

V

This is the second time Vee and Stevie have looked after our cat Harry. They sent lovely photos of Harry enjoying being brushed, and snuggling in bed with them. He is clearly very well looked after, happy and relaxed. They took great care of our home too, and are welcome back anytime!

Keith

Keith and Stella and their youngest son took care of our dog, cat and home for two weeks. All contact ran smoothly even though due to flight delays we've never met in person. Our pets were happy and relaxed when we returned, and our house and garden were in good order. We are very grateful that Keith took our dog to the vet after being in touch with us about her condition, she had developed a pollen allergy. We highly recommend Keith and Stella!

Jenny

I am so grateful for Jenny! Not only did she take marvellously good and loving care of my elderly greyhound and my very old house. She also was willing to care for both after the sit ended and my return from abroad was delayed—by a week! I realise only now that this was quite inconvenient for Jenny, but she did this favour happily and without fuss and tremendously well. I am so so grateful to her. Jenny is probably the best housesitter I have ever known after many years on this app!

Karolina

Karolina and her son were an absolute delight to have sit for us and were super communicative, neat, tidy and organised. They left the most wonderful card for us on our return and we couldn’t have been happier with them spending time looking after our house and the care and attention provided to our animals!

Karine & Martin

Karin, Martin and family were fabulous house sitters. We had good communication before and during the sit. The dogs were very well looked after and definitely have missed them since we returned home. We were grateful for them keeping an eye on the sheep too and updating us. The house and garden were immaculate when we returned. We would be happy to have them all back and would thoroughly recommend them.

John & Diane & John

Very caring with my dog. She really took to John and Diane. She is really going to miss them. I would recommend them to anyone else looking for a sitter.

Emily

We were very pleased with Emily's stay at our piggies heaven. She was really happy to take extra responsibility of taking care for our old piggy that needed extra medication when we were away. The amount of pictures and daily updates also reassured us that everything is under control and we could enjoy our time on holiday as well :)

Adon

Adon was amazing! We have two cats and one of them needs meds due to anxiety. When we returned the house was clean and the cats seemed very happy. He also sent us pics of the cats while we were on vacation. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Eilidh

Eilidh was great looking after Barney and he was very sad to see her leave. We came home to a happy dog and a clean and tidy house. She was also very responsive to my messages.

Gillian

Gillian was wonderful. Communication was great before, during and after sit. She sent photos of Luna with cute wee updates, I could tell Luna was very fond of her & they connected quickly. Gillian was very friendly & kind. The house was spotless on our return. I have already asked her back on a repeat sit. Five star sitter 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Fiona

This was my first experience of using a house sitter for my dog....it was a reassuring and great experience from the start. Molly was clearly well looked after by Fiona and Paul and I could see she was happy being with them. I would definitely recommend Fiona and Paul to look after your pet! Many thanks.

Muriel

Kim and Adam looked after our cat and our house for about 6 weeks. We would gladly have them coming back if needs be as they were very professional, took great care of both the cat and house and even accommodated estate agents while our house was on the market. 
I would recommend Kim and Adam with no hesitation. 
Thank you for everything

Martin

Karen undertook a house and pet sit for us for two weeks  in July 2019 .
We have two dogs one quite elderly and one only a year old . Karen provided outstanding care for both of them  .
She prepared special food for them and provided regular exercise and great companionship for them as we are usually with the dogs full time .
Karen’s skills and experience in raising seeing eyed dogs was very evident and she is a very competent dog carer. Additionally she has a warm and caring approach towards dogs.
We returned to find our home in excellent order and some lovely welcome home goodies in the fridge ...so very thoughtful .
We would rank Karen very highly as a pet / house sitter and we have had a range over the years !!
Karen kept us posted with regular communication whilst we were away and I suspect our dogs may have been sorry to see us return home !!
Thanks for doing such a great job Karen and of course we would be very happy to give  you the very highest recommendation . Knowing you were here providing that wonderful care to our dogs  made our holiday .
