Dog Sitters in Sherborne

Vanessa was great looking after Inca and the house. She has lots of energy so he had lots of lovely walks and seemed to have responded well to that and the bones and broth Vanessa gave him. The house was clean and tidy when we got back. Would totally recommend Vanessa and hope she will be able to sit for us again

Sally and Jerry were wonderful They are lovely people who took care of our pets, plants and house better than we do. I could not recommend them more highly and hope they will come back to sit for us in the future. Sally left us a delicious curry and dal in the fridge on our return which was quite beyond the call of duty but was a great welcome home.

Ali is a delightful cheery person and was the perfect house sitter. All our communications were easy and comprehensive. She is totally reliable and organised. Molly was very sad to see her leave and had obviously been very well looked after. I would not hesitate in asking Ali to sit again.

Our dogs had a fabulous time with Carol, and they loved her from the minute they met! She is the perfect house sitter and what peace of mind we had, going away for such a long period of time, leaving our ‘girls’ in such capable hands. They were walked regularly, enjoyed the cuddles, treats, and all the attention they were given. Our two dogs are aging and slowing down, which was taken into consideration during their walks, and we can't thank Carol enough for making sure they were ok, especially in the hot weather! It was very reassuring to receive all the regular pictures and updates to let us know that all was well with the girls, especially about Peppi’s poorly sore that was tended to with care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer person, who respected our home, and took the time to water the plants. The house was looked after beautifully and was spotless when we got home! Thank you, for taking such excellent care of our girls, you are always most welcome to sit for us again or pop in for a coffee and a cuddle with the girls if you are passing our way! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Carol for house sitting as she is certainly a 5-star house sitter!

Kelly was brilliant, she came to visit us before the sit, as we were not able to handover on the day. Great communication before and during the sit. The dogs were very happy and well looked after and loved. Kelly left the house just as we had left it (possibly cleaner). I would highly recommend Kelly, and look forward to her sitting for us again.

Thankyou so much Kimmy for looking after our homestead. The dogs, tortoise and ducks were all looked after perfectly with love and attention. Highly recommended 👌

Stuart and Francis were amazing. They looked after Billy and the house. Billy hardly noticed we’d been away he’d obviously enjoyed being with the sitters. A very responsible and sensible couple we’d definitely have them again Highly recommend

From our first video call we felt Lucy would be easy to communicate with, flexible, able to take our situation/requirements on board without issue, and someone we could trust. These initial feelings were reinforced once we met and during her sit. We agreed she should come a couple of days before we departed so we could show her round the neighbourhood and explain the details of the house and pets. We left confident that our house and pets would be well looked after, and this definitely proved the case. Unfortunately Lucy developed a cold on arrival and was certainly under the weather initially though she did not let this interfere. Lucy did a great job of looking after Jake and our new cat Simba, demonstrating a great love and care for them, soon winning the affection and confidence of both. Simba,being in part feral, has always been vary wary of any strangers and immediately disappears as soon as anyone calls round, but even before we left Lucy had gained his trust. We also lent Lucy our L200 truck, having put her on the insurance, and this was also well looked after. Lucy did encounter some issues with the internet and other minor problems, but via phone calls Lucy was able to explain the problem and I to provide a solution which Lucy had the technical ability to understand and thus resolve the issues. She kept in regular contact with frequent photos/videos of what the pets were up to and did a good job of looking after the house, even sweeping up the copious amounts of leaves that had fallen. It was a pleasure to have her stay, we wish her all the best in her future travels, and hope she will come and sit again sometime in the future. We have no hesitation in recommending her.

I can’t recommend Annie highly enough. She was simply amazing. She was so kind to our dog Mitsy and treated her as if she were her own. She was also very patient with us and sent us daily updates and pictures/videos of Mitsy as this was our first time leaving Mitsy for such a long time. Mitsy was so loved and looked after by Annie. She looked after Mitsy so well when she had some bowel issues and even bought and cooked fresh chicken to get her back on track. Annie also looked after our house extremely well and even stopped the rabbits from getting in the poly tunnel. And to top it all off she had a delicious dinner ready for us when we came home. We feel and hope we have made a friend for life. And you could not get a better person than Annie to look after your pets and home. Thank you Annie.

Alexandra and her sister were delightful. The animals were well cared for and the house left clean.

Olivia did a great job looking after Archie (the dog) whilst we were away. All communications with Olivia were excellent, and because she was local she popped round before we went away so we could show her the ropes. Olivia arrived in very good time and stayed until we got back. The house was clean and tidy, the dog was well cared for and happy and Olivia really seemed to enjoy being here which we liked. We hope that she can help us again.

I had a lovely chat on the phone with Justine before we confirmed the sit which was great. She and Nick were wonderful, they took Chilli on lots of long walks and generally gave her a fabulous time. It was so reassuring to know that really cared for my animals. They sent me photos of them out walking and on the beach. The house was clean and tidy when I got back with all the bedding washed and on the line. Perfect! I thoroughly recommend them and would love them to stay again.
