House Sitting Melbourn

“Zoe was absolutely fantastic taking care of our two dogs while we were on holiday. Gave us daily updates regarding the dogs and what they had been up to so that we didn’t worry. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. Could not recommend her enough. Thank you Zoe.”

About: I have had pets my whole life and love animals. I’ve grown up caring for dogs, cats, horses and chickens. As well as taking care of my own pets, I’ve done paid work including cat sitting, babysitting with dogs and general house sitting. I’m available on week days and weekends for the next two months. I’m happy staying overnight to look after pets, but cannot currently host pets at my house due to having my own dog who gets unsettled. I’m happy to cater to your pets needs, whether it’s staying in and keeping them company, or taking them for long walks. I’m happy around all pets of all sizes!

“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.”

“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.”

“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”

“Pedro was great with our boy Rico and it was obvious he knew how to handle large breeds and understood dog behaviour, which allowed us to feel at ease leaving Rico with him and his two lovely dogs as extra company. He made sure to send us lots of videos and updates every day which was a great comfort too. Thanks Pedro!”

About: I don't remember a time without animals and pets though we had small animals such as rabbits and gerbils with a peak headcount of 28, though these days it's just me and my six guinnea pigs, one rabbit, two chinchillas and a couple fish. This app doesn't let me add pets beyond cats and dogs so I note them here though there are some photos of them and myself on my profile. This year I've been volunteering my Sundays at the Animal Rescue Charity in Bishop Stortford so I'm confident and competent walking dogs of all size and behaviours, as well as exposure to a cats ranging from young to old, healthy to sick, though I consistently find animals respond to my calm and gentle nature. I have looked after my sisters shiba a few times when they were on holiday first as a puppy and more recently as a sassy teenager in heat or weekends away. Or a family friend who's old boy was blind and deaf and needed constant physical contact to feel safe and happy. Suffice to say I'm happy to accommodate and meet your pets needs with my time and attention, be that over long walks in any weather or a reliable companion to stay at your home with your beloved animals. Currently not working so I have plenty of time, though I volunteer on Fridays and Sundays so while I would like to continue those there is flexibility for sitting if unable to go for out for the day to accommodate you and your pets needs. Typically play it by the pets energy, if they want attention and play then we'll play, if they want to chill in the same room as me with a toy for some company then we can do that, or if they wish to be alone I'll still be availible and accessible to them. I'm comfortable sharing a bed, sleeping with doors open, cleaning up accidents and walking them in any weather, long or short, relaxed with lots of stops to sniff or a more disciplined walk on a tight leash. I am clean and tidy so I will leave your property as I found it. I have no issue spending all day around the home of that would bring you peace of mind only nipping out to get some groceries to last me a couple of days at a time, though in short I'm flexible, reliable, and attentive.

“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!”

“Elinor was fantastic house sitting our 7 month old golden retriever puppy over the 3 days! We were delighted with the care she gave our golden retriever puppy. Puppies can be quite a handful, but she was patient, kind, and clearly cared for her as if he were her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed puppy and a tidy house, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos throughout our trip, and her communication was excellent. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring house sitter, and we’d happily ask her to sit for us again.”

“He looked after our cats well.”

“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.”
