House Sitting Ashwell

“Jessie-Lyn stayed at our house for a week to look after our 2 cats. We have 2 cats that hate each other and must be kept apart both inside and out, so it was no easy task for her, especially with one cat that doesnt like strangers. She has done an amazing job. Both cats were well fed, looked after and indeed kept apart. The house was also absolutely spotless when we got back Would definitely use Jessie-Lyn again and would also recommend her to others”

About: I have had family pets since I was a little girl, we have had fish, guinea pigs, cats and dogs so I've experienced all different ways of looking after all our friends! I am a qualified dental nurse so I am very used to caring for people in my day to day life, handling medication, dealing with high stress situations and following instructions as led by you. My aim is always to create a calm and zen atmosphere to reduce anxiety and bring the fun and games when needed, I am now also a trained yoga teacher and I implement a joyful energy into all aspects of my life. I understand how important routine and structure is for animals, I am trustworthy and will promise to treat your furry friends as if they are my own. I just came back from a 4 month trip around Southeast Asia which ended with me gaining my Yoga teacher certification. I am currently not in a Dental Nurse role and am planning to start teaching yoga part time to gain experience, this means I have a lot of free time and flexibility each week. I am able to drive and travel to your house to come and look after your pets however, I am currently living in my family home with two of my own pets (a cat and a dog) so I am unable to board pets in my own home currently.

“Julie took wonderful care of my two spoiled dogs and looked after our home like it was her own, even surprising me with some beautiful tulips for our return. I certainly recommend her and hope Julie comes to watch over our dogs again soon. Truly professional.”

“Fleur was absolutely brilliant with my dog Lois - she totally loved her! I got regular updates throughout the week in form of videos and photos. It was such a peace of mind. I have come back to one happy dog and would absolutely recommend Fleur and will be repeat booking.”

“Eleanor was amazing start to finish and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of Cody. She looked after him in the hot weather, walking him super early when it was cooler which we really appreciated, and kept us updated the whole time with photos and what he’d been up to. We won’t hesitate to book Eleanor in again for future house sits”

“Roxy & Lolli absolutely loved Sonia from the first meet. Then on the day I felt assured they where in good hands in their own home. Got texts and pictures of them through out the day and night and could see they were having a great time. I will definitely use Sonia again. Highly recommend her. Have made a friend also 😊”

“The best review I can give Ffion is Obi’s reaction when she came to sit again. He was so ecstatic to see her!. Ffion was communicative, reassuring, and treated obi so incredibly well. We will be booking again and again.”

About: Hi I’m Amber I have worked as a live in Animal care assistant, I fostered & cared for many cats & dogs I currently work as a patient care Assistant at Davies Veterinary Specialists. I enjoy pet sitting around my work hours and enjoy making pets comfortable and happy whilst their owners are away. I look after both cats & dogs and the occasional small animals I can generally care for all animals overlong weekends, I can do week stays if animals are able to be left whilst I work, my typical work shifts are 8 hours. Around those hours all pets will be walked, fed & have lots of cuddles. I will always stick to the routine owners would like and keep the pets routine, as I find it keeps the pets very happy and less stressed. Looking after animals is my passion in life, I love caring for animals in my work & outside of work. To be given the opportunity to care for someone else’s pets is an honour and I love making every pet feel as happy and comfortable as they can be. Unfortunately I don’t offer home boarding as my dog is elderly and generally prefers his own company. When staying at a sitters home, I will always make sure every dog is never unattended in the garden. I will always give every pet a little health check every morning and update owners regularly if they are concerned about their pets. I have a dog first aid certificate which is due for renewal as the end of the year. I will always keep the pets environment as safe and clean as possible and will make sure to not disturb their environment. I will happily walk your dogs as many times as they need/want, and offer as much playtime as they would like.

“Kelsey was just great. Kept me updated and sent fantastic photos. Would definitely book again. Thank you for looking after Cooper so well Kelsey!”

About: I have owned three dogs, Frankie, a black Cocker Spaniel, Merlin, a Westie (both lived to 17y.o) and now I have Lottie, an ETT with a big personality who loves food and cuddles. I also had a cat, Max, who initially we thought he was a 'Laura' (!). I also love my pet corn snake, Daisy (yes, she's yellow and white!). For the last 30 years I have been very close to animals and have experienced their different needs, temperaments, health issues and even competed at Crufts. I work shifts so when I agree to look after your pet it means I will be off work so I can give my full attention and love. If you would like me to pop in for toilet break, cuddles and a walk then I will fit it round my schedule with work. I am usually free every day from late afternoons through to the evenings. I have a fenced garden extremely safe garden chuld gates to create peace of mind and safety for the front door. I don't leave food around (especially chocolate!),the house has plenty of space to run around and we have lots of dog toys. There is separate room for peace and quiet at night ir whenever they need it. Secure, hard floor.

“Reegan was absolutely amazing. I would 100% recommend. After a change in plans regarding our holiday meant I had no one to look after our large dog, contacted Reegan very last minute and she could not have been more accommodating. Marnie was looked after perfectly, she’s big girl but still a puppy so can be very full on and Reegan handled her brilliantly. The contact from her was amazing and I got lots of pictures that was lovely.”

“Isabelle house sat for us for 10 days and looked after our Sprocker Marley. She did a great job looking after him and the house. She left everything clean and tidy and he clearly had a great time with her. We will definitely book Isabelle again!”

“Elena did an absolute wonderful job with my dog, Hugo, who, at 17, has early dementia , and separation anxiety. He is a loving sweet dog, but needed huge amounts of care from the point of view of reassurance, almost 27/7! Elena even prepared him porridge for breakfast (as he’d been used to), and fresh chicken as she felt he was sick on his tinned food! Prior to the stay she even took time to meet Hugo. There were regular updates throughout the stay, and although Hugo provided to need rather more care then we had hoped , Elena kept looking out for him, putting Hugo’s needs 1st. She is a gem of a find!”

“Niki has been fabulous looking after my cockapoo. Lots of photos and I always felt Toffee was happy and having fun whilst I was away on holiday guilt free Would strongly recommend”

“Shannon was absolutely amazing with my 2 chows. I felt really comfortable with her looking after them. Roko and Mango had a great time! She kept me updated and I would hesitate to rebook Shannon!”

About: I’m a 19 year old girl looking to make some extra money during her gap year :) I’ve grown up with cats and currently have 6, we’ve had up to 8 at one time! I love cats and understand the importance of keeping them comfortable and catering to their needs. I also have a dog and tortoises as well as having had rabbits and hamsters in the past so i am an avid animal lover!

“I think Sydney had a lovely time, I got lots of photos where she looked very chilled. I was able to relax with my ageing relatives and I felt she was in good hands. She was absolutely fine when I got home so I have no concerns at all about the experience she had. Thanks very much :-D”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands on experience caring for family dogs as well as my own. From daily walks to playtime and plenty of cuddles, I know how important it is to give pets the attention and love they deserve. Training has been a big part of my journey as a pet parent, so I’m patient, consistent, and always focused on keeping pets happy and well-behaved. Whether it’s exercise, companionship, or just some extra TLC, I’ll treat your furry family members like my own. I work part time 1-3 days a week and I spend the rest of my time going for long walks or going to the gym so have plenty of time in between. I have a shared garden with 2 elderly dogs but they spend more time in their own home and I have a 4 month old puppy who loves all dogs

“Marnie had a wonderful day with Dajana! I had lots of lovely photo updates. Dajana has a very sweet nature and is clearly a huge animal lover. Very reliable and good communication. Would absolutely recommend and look forward to booking her again soon!”
