Dog Sitters in Middleton Tyas

Karen and Steve were exceptional Housesitter's- thoughtful, organised and very capable. They took the role with appropriate seriousness but were very friendly We enjoyed their company very much and would recommend them without reservation

We have just returned from our holiday and Alan and Jean have looked after our dogs and home brilliantly. The dogs have clearly been well cared for with attention paid to their routine including very early walks due to the heat. The house is immaculate and they have gone well beyond expectations and tidied cupboards, cleaned out rooms, dealt with a power cut and even done some cooking for us ( left in the freezer). I highly recommend Alan and Jean as very caring house and pet sitters and I hope they have some lovely new experiences with their next house sits.

Barry was super helpful coming to stay and look after our cat, he was not deterred by my terrible organisation and made our holiday preparations much less stressful. Barry is really great and friendly and definitely welcome any time!

Brandon took excellent care of my dog Mayo. She is pretty high energy and sometimes quite demanding but Brandon was up to the task. I would definitely have him as a house/pet sitter again.

Rachel and Chole were fantastic! I felt total and utter confidence in their abilities the moment we communicated on a video call. They are two very intelligent, capable young women. They bought their little Datschund, Teddy, who fitted in very happily with Fergus and Ruby. I invited Rachel and Chole to arrive the evening before we left the following day. It gave them a chance to absorb everything, not that I really needed to - as they are both self starters and highly intelligent! The communication whilst we were away was great, and we returned to an immaculate home and two very happy dogs. Rachel and Chloe were able to leave as our flight arrived into Inverness, they had a 6/7 hour drive, so with the brilliant communication, everything worked out not only for us, but for them to be able to get home by 10.30/11pm that day. The pristineness of the house upon our arrival home, was if no one had been here - two very happy dogs and immaculate house! What more could we have wished for. I can highly recommend Rachel and Chole, they are two charming young women, smart, clever and very very capable on all levels, with a deep sense of responsibility and care and above all, respect for our home, Ruby and Fergus! I do hope we can remain in touch - what a wonderful introduction to two young women! Thank you.

This was the first time I have left my dog with anyone so I was a little nervous beforehand. However I needn’t have worried because Robin and Claire were the absolute perfect house sitters. From our first communication I knew my dog would be in safe hands. Robin and Claire took the time to ensure my beagle Daisy had a fun time whilst I was away - as well as caring for my chickens and fish. Throughout the time I was away I received updates and photos of the activities my dog was enjoying, including a day out to the beach, walks in the local forests and endless ball games with their animal loving daughter, Abbie, who also cared for Daisy. When I returned home the house was immaculate, and the garden also carefully tended and watered. I am so grateful to Robin, Claire and Abbie for making it possible for me to attend an important family event abroad.

Anneka and Barry were wonderful pet sitters. They visited us in advance to make sure they knew our regular walking routes, as well as the quirks of the house! During the sit they kept us well updated with photos and I felt confident that Albert was being looked after and loved as if he was their own.

Cynthia and Manfred were my ideal sitters. Cynthia communicated really well and was polite and respectful while also being warm, friendly and good fun. Manfred helped us carry bags in and out to the car before we’d even noticed and both were clearly competent and well organised and I had complete confidence in their ability to cope with whatever came along. They respected the house and prioritised their cat sitting responsibilities. I would highly recommend them.

Graham and Arlene were perfect sitters, they exceeded expections in the care of our dog and our house. They kept in touch with us whilst we were away, letting us know what was happening at home and that they had phoned our vet over a concern about Olive, which was much appreciated. We came home to find a happy dog and a very clean and tidy home. They are a responsible and kind couple, so I would highly recommend them.

Janet and Andrew were great sitters. We met up beforehand and were immediately at ease and confident. The dogs gravitated to them at once and I heard Tallulah was Janet’s shadow while we were away. We would gladly have them back any time as they were excellent.

First off if you're lucky enough to get Lex and Lily sit for you, snap them up!! They were great with communication from the start, wanted to know information about our dogs and we're very flexible with our requirements. Now we have 4 chihiahuas and they all have very different personalities. Lex and Lily just totally got their vibe from the outset. We got regular updates and amazing photos of their adventures, and my goodness they certainly had plenty. The dogs seemed happy and loved seeing the new places they were taking them. Half way during our holiday one of our beloved dogs became very poorly. Lex and Lily were so on the ball. Without their help and intervention I'm not sure Buddy would have made it. Not only did they alert us to the problem, they volunteered to him them to an emergency vet very late on a Saturday night. They were so responsive regarding his situation and kept me in the loop. They were given meds that he has to take life long, and administered them amazingly. I can't tell you how much of a relief it was to have people who genuinely cared and wanted to ensure your pets get as much care and love as you would give them yourselves. They left our home beautifully clean and tidy and went above and beyond. Thank you both, please come back when you can to see the boys. Xx

It was so lovely having Marie to sit for us. During the sit Marie kept in touch and sent us plenty of pictures and I could see how happy Benji and Mr Biscuit were. I felt really reassured that they were in really good hands. When we returned home we were able to meet Marie in person. She was preparing us a lovely meal which we were really grateful for after travelling all morning. The house was immaculate when we got home and the animals really content and happy. I would happily have Marie back to sit for us anytime.
