Bahman was the absolute sweetest - although we weren’t able to meet in person, Sharpie and Duman took to him immediately. Bahman sat for me for three weeks when I was away on an intensive work trip - and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. He was very communicative and sent regular updates so I knew the cats were well taken care of and in good hands. In return, I was able to focus on my trip, and I felt completely at ease leaving my fur babies in Bahman’s care. In turn, he seemed to really get attached to them :))

The place was absolutely immaculate and when I came back and the cats were only slightly interested when I opened the door which speaks to how well they were taken care of.

Bahman also left behind some Iranian treats that I’m taking care not to consume all at once! It was a really great experience having him as a sitter - and would absolutely recommend Bahman to watch after your pets!

You can stop searching and comparing pet sitters NOW because Janeen and Steve are THE BEST. I have a small velcro dog who is by my side 24/7 and untrusting of most other dogs and people. I also have two cats who are cats - you never know how they’re going to adapt to strangers in the house. Before Janeen and Steve even got into the house my dog was at their car dog wagging his tail - something he’s never done before. They have a vibe that oozes “we love animals” and all my pets felt it. The house was spotless when we got back. They were very respectful of our space and communication was five stars. I would ask them back in a second and I’ll never find better sitters!

It was lovely to welcome Leslie and Allen back to our home.
They came to our house 2 days earlier than scheduled as we had some sad news from the UK.
They are a lovely couple and we now count them as very good friends.
All of the animals were very well cared for and this year has been more of a challenge caring for Percy and Alice because of the amount of rain we have had which makes the grass much richer.  So particular care has to be taken because of laminitis and they handled this perfectly.
The cats were totally chilled out and not bothered that we had been away.
We returned to a spotlessly clean house, much cleaner than we left it! and the garden had been maintained perfect.
We now have 2 large lawns to cut so we are so grateful Allen managed to sort these during very challenging weather!
It was fantastic to see Leslie and Allen and we would love them to come and stay at ours again.
We were able to go on holiday and not have a single worry about our animals or the house.
Thank you so so much Leslie and Allen xx

Katie was amazing, and communication through the sit was excellent. Poirot is very low-maintenance; he would occasionally come to us for food and some scratches. The house was super nice, very comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed and had a great time. Thank you so much for everything, Katie!

Aidan and Kathy were delightfully easygoing and clear in their communications. The extensive notes were easy to follow and helpful.
House is comfortable in a quiet street and good shopping is about 5 minutes down the road.
Bruce is a lovable dog who seems to get on with everyone. I loved being woken by his insistant knocks on the door and his affectionate licks. All in all, hes a fun boy to be around!
