Highlights
Pet care experience
Trustworthy pet sitting couple
We are compassionate pet sitters, we are experienced at caring for furry family members of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to nursing older pets in their final days and following complicated surgical procedures. We have had pets our entire lives and can provide personalised care tailored to each pet's unique needs. We will prioritise the well-being and happiness of every animal entrusted to our care. Whether it's cuddle time with an older cat, or playtime with a lively puppy, we have done it. We have also nurtured a nervous and rescued pet. We have nursed both cats and dogs following surgical procedures and are dedicated to creating a safe and loving atmosphere where pets thrive. We have recently lost our last dog, at the age of 16 and although we are missing him, we do not feel ready to just 'replace' him. We are therefore really looking forward to sharing our lives with other peoples pets, we live is a calm and peaceful household but have also known the fun chaos of having 3 children (now grown and gone) and at one point 3 dogs and 2 cats...and chickens plus a pond full of fish We have a secure back garden and will very soon be retiring so that we will be able to spend all day, every day looking after your animals! Working as a couple allows us to fully commit to caring for your pet as we can be flexible and work around other commitments as a team.

Ratings and reviews
Sarah and her husband Stuart made our holiday stress free. Knowing we had left our two crazy miniature schnauzers in the more than capable care of Sarah and Stuart was invaluable to our family. We had plenty of updates each day whilst we were away and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them both to my friends with fur babies and we wouldn’t think twice about leaving the dogs with them both. Thank you Sarah and Stuart for everything you have done 🥰
I was anxious about leaving my dogs but sarah made me feel better by telling me this was normal and that id be getting daily pictures. When sarah and stuart met the dogs they instantly loved them and my mind was put at rest. All the way through my holiday sarah and stuart sent me so many pictures it looked like my dogs didnt miss me at all lol id 100% book them again, ive always said I wouldn't leave my dogs with just anyone but sarah and Stuart were amazing.
Sarah and Stuart are amazing. I trust them with my puppy and my puppy is always so happy to see them shes flying around with excitement!
Brill as usual thankyou
Sarah & Stuart took care of Heidi while we were abroad for a week, Heidi had a brilliant time and we could see that from the pics and communication sent. They really do cater for your dogs needs and Heidi had oodles of her favourite thing in life…belly rubs! 🥰 thanks for having her and we are booking again for next year!
Sarah & Stuart took awesome care our both our house, but more importantly, our two dogs whilst we had a much needed rest on holiday. Before sitting for us they met us twice - once for an initial meep and greet with the dogs (Oct 25) and then at the start of May 26. In May 26 they met us and we went for a pack walk with us an the dogs - within 20 feet of the house, they had the dog leads in hands and were more than capable of handing out 'sassy' Star our our somewhat vocal Astro. During our time away they kept us updates with regular photos and messages - so we always felt like we were being kept informed and updated. Came back from holiday yesterday (Sat) and both dogs look to have been so well looked after (and I suspect walked to within an inch of their limits - and that is saying some!) Highly recommend both Sarah & Start - be more than happy to have them take care of the dogs again when we go away (which reminds me, as soon as I'm done on this feedback...). Thanks again, lovely people, obvious dog lovers and a house well cared for. Not sure what other positive feedback to give. If in doubts - don't be - they are lovely! Josh, Marc, Star & Astro x
