Dog Sitters in Newsham

Irmela & Oliver are excellent, and I am at a loss of superlatives to adequately describe their inherent value. First, our dog was healthier on our return than we left. (A 13-year-old Standard Schnauzer that just turned 14.) Second, our house was immaculate, a level of cleanliness we don't achieve--again, better than what we left. Third, the Vet and entire office praised Iremla and Oliver for their diligence and care. (Ahem, implying better than us!) Fourth, our dog walker met I&O in the village and said our dog looked more active and calmer than she with the previous sitters. Fifth, everyone in the village, from cafe to post office, to the corner store, praised I&O for the friendly, cheerful attitude. (Ahem, implying better than us!) We feel fortunate having met them, having them to watch our dog and house. Irmela and Oliver are the best, no additional superlatives necessary. Our one issue is that the nagging we get from everyone about when we plan to go away so Irmela and Oliver can return.

I can sincerely recommend Anna and Jorges. They looked after Florence the dog and Zibah the cat very well and both were happy and healthy on my return. In addition Anna reassured me of their well being everyday with a photograph. They left the house in an immaculate condition; I would not have known anyone had been living there. They even left me 2 arepas, a Venezuelan treat. Thanks to both of them for the treasure of peace of mind.

Lesley was caring,extremely tolerant of a demanding puppy. she administered medication accurately and showed much consideration for the dogs wellbeing.

Fantastic job, thanks so much Katy!

It's hard to find new words to describe how much we value Rachel and Stef as our petsitters! They are cheerful, calm, and absolutely fantastic with Abby and Bro. They have a great energy, which makes them favorites with our pets, our neighbours, and, of course, us. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them. The house is always left spotless, and our pets are always sad to see them go. We just wish they would move in next door so that they would always be available :) Thank you once again for another trouble-free sit and for making the effort and succeeding in accommodating our dates.

Deb is a fantstic house/pet sitter! Animals all very happy when we got home, house clean and tidy. Thoroughly recommend Deb!

What a kind, thoughtful and caring chap Sheldon is, we’d have him back in a instant, in fact, we’d quite like to keep him! He clearly met our dogs’ needs, they were so relaxed and happy when we returned (to our very clean and tidy) home. An excellent communicator, Sheldon kept in touch leading up to the stay, which was reassuring, and was also good at keeping us informed about arrival time. He’s very conscientious and was keen to know all about the dogs as well as discussing how much contact we’d like while we were away. In case anyone reading this is wondering about leaving Sheldon any treats for his stay, (and he’s far too polite to say) he loves a glass of pinot noir and a slice of carrot cake! 🥰. I’m sure you and your pets would be thankful to have him to stay, as we were - a thoroughly lovely fellow.

I have nothing but good things to say about Sophie & Lily. They are wonderfully polite and conscience people who looked after our dog and cat so well that I don’t even think they knew we had gone for a week. Our dog specifically can be quite anxious which is why we chose house sitters rather than kennels in the first place and on our return she was happy to see us but without the anxiousness and panic from being in a kennel. Our cat is indifferent to our presence. Sophie & Lily kept the house clean and tidy and in fact I think they left it in better state than we did! I wouldn’t hesitate to have them back.

Zoe and Javier were wonderful with our 3 furkids, giving them lots of love and attention while we were away - in fact they didn’t seem to notice we had gone. The house was clean and tidy and the dogs even had a wash! Our cat can be sulky but she took to them quickly and was happy to cuddle. They were communicative and sent regular updates and videos, and they were polite and pleasant in all interactions . We definitely recommend and rate them highly, and are very grateful for their sit.

Emma pet and house sit for us for two weeks while we were in Greece and she did a great job in both taking care of our cats/house and sending me updates everyday, which i really i appreciated. Also, I've asked her if she was alright with deep cleaning the bathroom and her bedroom as I was bringing my mom home after chemotherapy, and she happily accepted and delivered 😆 Thank you Emma again, I wish you safe travels and if you ever come back to Manchester let us know xx

Second time we have had Duika, and as good as ever. Regular updates on our dog, clearly taken for some very good walks House immaculately tidy. Dog was all over Duika on the day she came to pick up keys, clearly remembered her almost as a member of the family, although 3 months since they had last met Dog seemed to develop fleas, but Duika dealt with it all very efficiently, including spraying and sweeping much of the house. all completely sorted - and probably our fault for missing a couple of doses of the tablets - won't do that again! Can recommend Duika very highly indeed

Excellent as ever!
