Cat Sitters in Portslade

Xenia

Xenia looked after my cat Nnedi, and a tank full of frogs, fish, and snails while I was away for a week. She was communicative throughout, sending me daily updates and lovely photos. She came around before the sit to double check the arrangements, and the place was spotless when I came back. I’d happily recommend Xenia for your sit

Sue & Steve

We were very happy with Sue and Steve as our sitters. The communication was clear, they arrived on time as agreed and kept the house clean and tidy and the most important took good care of our cat Morpheus. Recommended!

Lucy

Lucy was a brilliant Housesitter. She was so great with our cat Snudge (who requires medication multiple times per day) and we couldn’t be happier with the respect and care Lucy had in our house. Thank you so much Lucy!

Emma

Absolutely thrilled with Emma and Colin coming back to look after our 4 chubsters again! They took care of our girls with exceptional care and affection. Emma’s regular WhatsApp updates are always a joy to receive, keeping us connected and reassured throughout our time away. Their upbeat and jolly demeanour truly shines through, making the whole experience stress-free and delightful. As always they went above and beyond in keeping our flat sparkly clean, even handling Millie’s little mishaps on our rug with utmost care and efficiency which made a potentially stressful situation a breeze! 🙏🙏 Their dedication, positivity, and thoroughness make them the perfect flat and cat sitters. We highly recommend them and look forward to having them back in the future! Thanks guys! 🌟🐱🏠

Annalisa

Annalisa was a wonderful sitter! Her communication was great, she came and saw the flat and met Max prior to the sit. She sent me lots of pictures of how happy Max was with her at home during the sit. I would highly recommend Annalisa as a sitter.

Rosalind & Luke

I honestly can’t fault the experience we’ve had with Rosie and Luke. They have sat for us twice, once a weekend and then full two weeks. The communication was easy and they fully took on board instructions in regards to caring for our rescue Jojo. We received plenty of updates and pictures, the dogs were clearly having a holiday too! The house was left immaculate, clean, tidy and the plants cared for too. We hope they are available to sit for us in the future.

Meg

Meg was a brilliant sitter. She communicated really well before and during the sit. Made us feel very comfortable that our dog and our house was in good hands. The house was spotless on our return and would certainly recommend Meg.

Krishna & David

Krish & David stayed with Willow for 6 weeks while we were on a remote wilderness trip, having kindly extended their sit to accommodate our adventuring. They're so genuine and personable; we felt an instant connection during our 1st zoom meeting. We couldn't have been happier to have them, especially seeing how quickly Willow took to them. Our internet access was intermittent, but they reached out with updates and photos regularly which were a treat to receive; we could see Willow was completely smitten with them. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she and our home were well cared for. We came home to a clean house, a happy cat, and new friends.

Marena

Marena is such a lovely person. She really love Joela. She is really polite and respectful. She is may not be that fluent in English but she defintely understood me and John. I high recommend Marena to be your house sitter. She is welcome to stay and be our house sitter when she's available.

Claudia

We were blessed by having Claudia look after our cat, bird feeder and house while we were away. We were able to meet beforehand for an intro and briefing; everything went super smoothly from our point of view. We had a welcome update from Claudia halfway through our trip. We would happily choose Claudia again for a sitting. Thanks again

Samantha & Paul

Sam and her family were great housesitters. They looked after our 3 dogs and house for 3 days with no problems. Great communication and all went smoothly! Would recommend.

Sibyl & Andrew

Sibyl as always was an excellent sitter, she kept us posted with updates and pics of Murphy and Beanie, and the house was left lovely and clean when she left. Sibyl has sat for us on a number of occasions now and is always a great communicator, flexible and reliable and above all Murphy loves her! Xx

Sara

This was the second time we'd had Daisie to pet sit for us and it was just as positive an experience as last time. She responded promptly to messages when arranging the sit, gave us updates while we were away and left the house spotlessly clean when she left. Our guinea pigs were very well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Daisie and to have her to pet sit for us again.

Mark

This was our first time using this service and it’s exceeded expectations. Katie was amazing, we can’t thank her enough. From initial messages, arriving early as we left in the early hours, beautiful update and photos, leaving the house immaculate and even leaning is a little gift and thank you card, Katie was the perfect sitter.
