Pet Sitters in West Dean

Hilary & Kevin

Hilary and Kevin were marvellous sitters. Kevin really is a bit of a dog whisperer and had our rather willful GWP doing as he was told in only two days. As well as this, Maysun obviously adored Kevon and would quite happily have left with him. Maysun was well walked and very weil looked after. Could not recommend highly enough.

Penny

We were so happy with Penny's care of the house and our cats. Communication was excellent and the house was immaculate on our return.

Amanda & Christopher

I spent a very pleasant evening with Amanda and Chris and their lovely well behaved dog Socks, the night before I headed off for a long weekend (my husband James was already away). Percy and Remy greeted Socks with some barks and then Remy and Socks spent time playing and became firm friends. Percy being the older dog left them to it! Amanda and Chris have a lot of experience with dogs and this showed as Percy and Remy were very comfortable in their company. Communication was good before and during the sit. They kept us up to date on Whatsapp and sent some great photos and videos whilst we were away, showing that the boys and Socks were having a lot of fun and some lovely walks. We returned home to happy waggy tailed dogs and it was very clear they had been loved and well looked after and our house was very clean and tidy. Amanda and Chris gave us confidence right from the start that they would look after Percy and Remy and our house, and they certainly did do that. We would definitely recommend them to house and pet sit. We would love them to be able to house sit for us again in the future. Thank you Amanda and Chris (and Socks!)

Andrew & Nicola

Andrew and Nicki were fabulous house sitters who cared for our home, left it clean and tidy and, most importantly, cared for our 10 year old spaniel Eddy very well indeed. I think she was quite sad when they left and we came back! I would highly recommend them as considerate and reliable.

Venita

Nacho and Stanley absolutely loved Venita I know they got a lot of cuddles and lovely long walks and a consistent routine so they were very happy. Our house was very clean and tidy and the washing done which was lovely to return to! Venita even did gardening and maintenance outside which was very kind and helpful, thank you Venita. I would definitely ask Venita to sit again.

Richard & Sarah

I can't say enough about Richard and Sarah. They went above and beyond when my dog Max became ill. Their compassion and kindness was so appreciated. This is a couple anyone would want to have as a 'trusted' house sitter. They took such good care of my home. Thank you Richard and Sarah for everything. You are the best.

Leah

Leah very kindly came to meet us before the sit to reassure us. The dogs took to her immediately. She was great at communicating in the run up and during the sit. When we got back, the house was clean and tidy and the dogs happy. Thanks Leah.

Robert

Robert and Caroline were my dogs friends straight away . Robert was there when I got home and I could see how much the dogs were happy with him .

Susan & Herb

Wonderful sitters, great communication, reliable, updates and left our girl happy and our home clean and tidy - would recommend for future sits 😄

Eloise

Eloise and Perry were the perfect house guests and cat sitters for us. They left the house immaculate and the cats very happy. We feel very lucky. All so smooth.

Claire & Sandy

Lottie had a wonderful Christmas with Claire and Sandy whilst we were away and we knew she was in good company the whole time. They took great care of our little girl and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any sits you may have. Claire and Sandy were very organised, clean, tidy, friendly and loving towards Lottie. We got wonderful updates on her Christmas celebrations too!! I’m seriously starting to think Lottie prefers all our house sitters to us 😂. She always looks so happy when we get home. Thank you so so much for caring for Lottie and our home. We hope you enjoyed your stay as much as Lottie did. Especially the endless cuddles!!

Nancy

Willow and Dylan had another great sit with Nancy and Paul. They were good at communicating prior to arrival. They took great care of both dogs, and our plants in the greenhouse. They left the place spotless for our return. We would not hesitate to recommend Nancy and Paul to sit.

Gwenaelle

This was my first sit outside of my home country so I was a bit nervous, but I needn't have worried because everything went perfectly! Communication with Gwen was a breeze, she was kind enough to show me around the flat when I arrived, provided lots of helpful information, and was always on hand if I had any questions.

Pepouz is a cute little fluffball, gentle, easy-going, and very simple to care for. At first he was quite shy around me, but within a couple of days he warmed up and was soon snuggling on my lap. He has a playful spirit too, and loved to play with his cat toys and bolt across the flat which was always fun. When he isn't playing you can find him napping in his favourite nooks, flopping about on the floor, or munching on his cat grass. He also knows his mealtimes very well and would give me (very gentle) reminders when they were coming up.

The flat is cosy and comfortable, located in a lovely neighbourhood, very close to grocery stores and some fantastic bakeries, ice cream shops and other eateries. Plus it's only a three minute walk to the nearest metro station, which takes you to the city centre and airport in seemingly no time at all. And Copenhagen, wow what can I say! It's an absolutely amazing city - beautiful, quiet, clean and safe with so much to offer including top-notch museums, attractions, and incredible food. Not to mention the fantastic public transit system and cycling infrastructure which made my heart weep with envy! I had a brilliant time exploring the city and was gutted to leave.

This was a great sit from start to finish, and I feel very lucky that Gwen and Quentin chose me to take care of sweet Pepouz. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the sit to others.
