Finding a trustworthy pet sitter can be a daunting task, especially for a nervous pet parent like me. However, my recent experience with Mark has reassured me that there are great caregivers out there. From the moment Mark arrived on time for our scheduled sit, I could tell he was prepared. Although his regular companion Suzy did not join him, Mark's demeanor was calm and confident, and I felt at ease leaving my pets in his care. We had sufficient time for a smooth handover, during which I introduced him to my two pets, Cara and Mia. Mark was not only attentive but also open to learning about the local amenities nearby. I made sure to pass along special instructions for Cara, who was on antibiotics. Additionally, I mentioned that Cara had separation anxiety, but Mark assured me that he was ready to handle it. I was relieved to see that it didn't take long for Cara to warm up to him; she started shadowing him almost immediately! While Cara was adjusting to Mark's presence, Mia ended up being sick twice. However, Mark took this in stride. He handled the situation promptly cleaning up and taking care of the dirty linen without any fuss. As a nervous mum, I appreciated Mark's excellent communication skills. He was attentive to my concerns and didn't mind providing daily updates, which meant the world to me while I was away. Knowing that my pets were happy and well-cared for allowed me to enjoy my time outside of the home. When I returned, I pleased to find that my house was just as I had left it - clean and tidy. Both Cara and Mia were happy. In conclusion, my experience with Mark was nothing short of excellent. He proved to be reliable, adaptable, and communicative, making the entire process stress-free for me. I wholeheartedly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a dedicated pet sitter who genuinely cares for animals. It's comforting to know that there's someone like him out there, ready to step in and provide the care our beloved pets need.

Maarten looked after my house and dogs for 5 and half weeks. 

He was wonderful, and kept in touch, which was very reassuring as I was away for so long. I received regular photos of my happy dogs out for walks, which he did twice a day.

Maarten is a writer and worked from home all day, which was good to know, as my dogs were not left alone and lonely.

When one of my dogs had a seizure, Maarten took it very seriously. He contacted me and got to the vet for medication as soon as possible.

The house was nice and clean when I got home. And restocked with dog treats as well as a new harness for one of the dogs.

Maarten looked after many plants in pots as well as in my garden. He told me that he knew nothing about plants, but he did very well and kept them alive, as the hot summer weather started. He often sent me photos of plants with questions about how to respond to them.

And lastly Maarten really saved my skin- with a mad dash from the airport to my house and back to fetch my passport which I forgot. (How could I?). He really did the impossible and I caught the plane in time. He had the use of my car, and kindly took me to the airport and fetched me when I returned.

What a great housesitter!

Kevin and Mary were super, and so lovely to have come stay.  They were brilliant with the cats, and sent me lots of update pictures through the stay.  When I got back the place was absolutely spotless and they had replaced any food they had used.  Thank you for looking after the cats so well, and I hope you will be back to see us again soon

I had a great sit with Yuliya and her cute cat Trixie! Yuliya’s home is very peaceful and in a great location, just a short walk from the train station. Trixie is so adorable! We became buds rather quickly, and I enjoyed the time we spent bonding and her sweet purrs. Thanks Yuliya and Trixie for a lovely experience : )
