Cat Sitters in Sandyford

Anne

Anne is a wonderful pet and house sitter, both reliable and caring. Her warm and friendly personality made communication very easy. She loves the outdoors so this was ideal for our little Yoyo who got to enjoy long walks. When we got back, the house was spotless and our dog looked content, having clearly received much love and care. It’d be great to welcome Anne again -she’s a perfect sitter!!

Kaylee

This was the second time Kaylee stayed at our house, and it allowed us to relax during our own house sit overseas, knowing that our loved ones are in the best hands. As always, it was a pleasure to come back to a tidy house and enjoy a very tasty cake that Kaylee has prepared for us. Already looking forward to the next time....

Ceara

Ceara and Shane are great sitters, we would highly recommend them. They’re great to communicate with and Monty and Mila always seem very relaxed and happy with them. They’re very clean and tidy and always respect our house. Thank you!

Cindy

Cindy was so great with Ruger! She is so sweet and calm which put us right at ease. She even handled some electricians popping in unannounced and kept the place nice and tidy. Great updates daily to see that all was well. Would definitely welcome her back again!

Katy & Owen

Katy & Owen were fabulous, highly recommend this lovely couple. Dogs well cared for, top notch comms and house was lovely and clean to come too. Thanks for looking after our tribe guys. Really appreciated it.

Colleen

Colleen was so easy and friendly to work with and the house was tidy when we came back. She really looked after the garden. I'd welcome her back anytime.

Allyson

Allyson was a lovely lady, she knew what she was doing. She wanted to know all about our animals and their routine. I was happy to leave them with her. When we came back I knew the animals were looked after well. She left the place spotless. I would welcome her back anytime!

Aoife

Aoife and Colm brought joy and comfort to my household and all its fur and feather friends. Dog, Gigi, was super content, sat in their laps, went for walks and has spoken fondly of them since their departure. Cat, Lamar, was well cared for, litter box cleaned, fed per instructions and treated them with disdain...he is, after all, a cat. Chickens, Nadia and Priscilla, clucked happily and performed their usual chicken acts. All pets have specific and unique feeding routines and treats and Aoife and Colm made sure they were kept on schedule and loved a lot. They communicated with me, sent me pictures and left the house in impeccable condition. I would have them back in a heartbeat!

Nicola & Paul

Nicola and Paul were fantastic pet-sitters - they showered so much affection on all of the animals, fluffy, furry, fleecy and feathered! Luna was delighted with lots of great walks, exercise and play, Diesel the cat definitely has two more favourite humans. The chooks were well fed, cared for and their house kept clean and last but by no means least our alpacas were loved on so much that they didn’t even notice I had gone ◡̈ Paul and Nicola updated me daily with pictures and commentary on how everyone was, they also helped facilitate the vet’s visit to babapaca for her vaccination and took great care of a small sore on mamapaca’s back. All instructions were followed with great care and attention, I would wholeheartedly welcome them back again any time!

jose eduardo

Wow, we were so happy with Erika and Eduardo. The animals were so well looked after and given lots of love. The house was very tidy when we arrived home, which was nice! They were very self sufficient and embraced the mentality of cottage life in Ireland! We would be very happy to have them sit for us again anytime 😊

Eliza

Eliza was the.most fantastic house/pet sitter. A really lovely young woman. Our dogs adored her. One of the dogs developed an ear infection and she happily took her to the vet and cared for her so kindly. She kept us updated with photos of the dogs and looked after all my plants and the garden. I really couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Marie

Thanks Marie for minding our home so well and our precious furry babies. We would have no hesitation in recommending Marie.

Julie

Matilda and Yan looked after Laddie and Ollie (our two clumber spaniels) and the house for just over a week. They were very organised about getting to know us and the dogs - a Zoom call and then coming over for dinner - before the housesit started. They also stayed with us the night before we left for our holiday. All this meant that that they understood about the dogs and their habits/peculiarities and how the house works e.g. central heating and we weren't stressed about whether they would arrive on time etc etc. Despite them having to endure possibly the wettest week in Cambridge for some time and therefore hideously muddy dogs all the time, the house was very neat and tidy and clean when we got back. Would absolutely recommend them.

Charlotte

Ines has been absolutely great taking care of my cat Takkie and my flat. She is obviously an experienced catsitter:  responsive, flexible and asking the right questions. She took great care of my cat, who is not the easiest, so I came home to a very happy kitty. Also my flat was spotless clean with even a very tasty present left on the table. I would love for her to petsit again. Thank you Ines!
