I am currently on a career break whilst we travel the world, so I'm able to give your pets full time care and my wife Iwona works remotely as a bookkeeper and independent travel agent, which means we are always around to keep pets company ( reliable wifi is a must ) .

About Adrian S.

Safety, trust & environment
We only do pet sitting in your home so your pets will be in their familiar surroundings and we stick to their normal routine so they feel at ease. We have a questionnaire that we normally send to owners to ask about all aspects of the pets and house so can gather as much information as possible. We find this means we don't need to constantly message the owners about loads of things.
Information Adrian S. would like to know about your pet
Obviously its important to know about any medication or special routines, but also any allergies or triggers the pet may have. How are they around strangers, have they had sitters before. There are lots of things we like to discuss during video calls before each sit.
A typical day
With dogs we like to visit local parks, walk along nature trails and paths and if near the coast, go to dog friendly beaches. Fetch and tug-of-war are great for exercise also. We like to keep the animals normal routine, but also add in some other things of interest. For cats we like to play with their interactive toys to keeps them interested, but even playing with boxes or paper bags makes most cats happy.

Pet care experience
Hi there, we are Adrian (53) and Iwona (42), a married, non smoking couple from the UK. We are homeowners, responsible and tidy and we will look after your pets and home as if they were our own. We both grew up having pets and over the years have done petsitting for family and friends. We have been travelling full time for the last three years through South, Central and North America, New Zealand, Australia and Asia where we have successfully undertaken lots of house and petsits. We are experienced sitters and are also qualified in pet CPR and first aid. We also have pet sitting insurance coverage. This year we are exploring various places and regions in the UK. For the time being we are not accepting sits shorter than 1 week. We are happy to provide references. We would love to help care for your: - cats - dogs - fish - Rabbits - Hamster/Guinea Pigs Iwona works remotely so we won't leave your pets alone, but good, reliable wifi is necessary. Happy to get on a video call to e- meet first, learn about your requirements and answer any questions you may have. We have our own transport so can travel pretty much anywhere in the UK. -"Iwona and Adrian are also willingly helpful at putting their hand to pretty much anything should you have any special requests or any issues that might come up while housesitting! They are great communicators and regularly sent photos and videos keeping our minds at peace that all was well while we were away. One of the most important things we loved most about Iwona and Adrian is that they are animal lovers and have a natural calming way about them to make the animals feel safe and enjoy their company!

Reviews
We couldn't have asked for a better sitters for2 dogs, 2 cats and not forgetting the 40 fish. Adrain and Iwona provided incredible peace of mind by sending daily photo updates. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love animals; our pets took to them immediately. We returned home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house. Highly professional and trustworthy—we will definitely be booking again!"
Adrian and Iwona have house and pet sat for us on three occasions and we hope to have them back in the future. They are very organised and thoughtful, which reflects their excellent experience. One example is they have a comprehensive pre-sit checklist. When they are sitting for us they have an open and positive communication style with plenty of regular updates and photos of the dogs. We have three golden retrievers of very different ages and personalities. Adrian and Iwona are excellent at managing that situation, are genuinely warm and caring towards the dogs and you know that they are in great hands. Any minor issues with the house (eg. We had a leaking water tank) are either resolved promptly or handled calmly. The house is left in perfect condition when we return from any trip. We highly recommend them as both house and pet sitters.
My husband and I recommend with confidence Iwona and Adrian as house sitters having known and used them for years now. Everything always goes smoothly in our absence and under their attentive care. We have no reservations whatsoever entrusting Iwona and Adrian with our house keys as they have proven to be trustworthy and respectful of our home. Our property was kept clean and tidy which is exactly how we found it on our return. Also, it has never been damaged whilst under their care and no complaints from any neighbours either. Iwona and Adrian are also willingly helpful at putting their hand to pretty much anything should you have any special requests or any issues that might come up while housesitting! They are great communicators and regularly sent photos and videos keeping our minds at peace that all was well while we were away. One of the most important things we loved most about Iwona and Adrian is that they are Animal Lovers and have a natural calming way about them to make the animals feel safe and enjoy their company! Please do not hesitate to contact us should you feel you need to but without a doubt we are certain that anyone who is fortunate enough to have them look after their home will do too! We’ve always loved and experienced peace of mind having Iwona and Adrian as our pet and house sitters! Kelly & Adrian Finan
Iwona & Adrian were excellent pet and house sitters. We returned to a very clean home and a happy dog. Their communication was excellent with regular messages and photos of Mia on her walks. We really hope they are able to come and care for Mia and our home again. I would recommend them both to anyone looking for reliable care.
