House Sitting Shipston-on-Stour

“Lovely guy, very calm & pleasant. Met Tim prior to him staying which we really liked. Truffle seemed to take well to him too. Left the house nice & clean & didn’t feel we worried at all during our weekend away. Thank you Tim :)”

“Bhasuri and her partner did such an amazing job looking after Norman. It was the first time we had left him after moving, and we felt so reassured he was having the best time and we were able to completely relax whilst away. He absolutely adored them staying in our home, and they also took great care of our old house.”

“Would highly recommend Jane, she did a brilliant job looking after our house and dog , Bea for five weeks . We received regular updates and pictures which made it very clear Bea was enjoying lots of lovely walks and very happy spending time with Jane at home. The house was beautifully clean and tidy when we got back and Bea looked amazing. We have already booked her for our next holiday.”

“Fiona excelled at looking after Dilly. Dilly is a sensitive rescue who struggles to settle with most sitters. However, when we returned from a 10 day holiday, she was relaxed and obviously extremely comfortable with Fiona. Fiona had taken a lot of time and thought to help Dilly to relax and feel happy in her company. I can’t recommend Fiona more highly and shall definitely being booking her again in the furure”

“River was a great house and pet sitter for my 3 pets. They made sure I was kept up to date with photos and messages every day and was very flexible when our plans changed without much notice. I would highly recommend River to look after you cats and dogs!”

“Laura looked after our Cocker Spaniel Sonny at our house for 3 nights recently. She is reliable and trustworthy and clearly bonded with Sonny. Her communication was excellent and so we had no anxiety about our home and Sonny whilst we were away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“I really can’t recommend Holly enough. She looked after my pup and my older dog whilst we were away on holiday. She took care of everything. And I don’t say that lightly. She had only previously met the girls briefly, but was a natural with them. Holly checked in with me daily, updating me with how the girls were getting on. She sent me photos of them on their walks, in the garden and snuggled up with her 🥰. This was so reassuring and I felt like I could relax and enjoy my holiday knowing they were in such good hands. She also took care of our home. She left the house immaculate and even double checked when bin day was, so we didn’t miss out. Holly was fantastic and we hope she’s be happy to help us again in the future 🙂 highly recommend. Thanks Holly.”

“Steve house sat /looked after Rosie. We arranged walks prior to the sit so they had time to get to know each other. Steve’s great & Rosie absolutely adores him. I”

Jane O.

“Annie was fantastic looking after Charlie and Nancy. She stepped in at very short notice, which I really appreciated. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and photos that put me completely at ease. She was calm, reliable, and clearly great with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and would happily ask her again 😀”

Jo L.

“Katie took great care of Frankie for the weekend, sending us regular updates and leaving the house clean and tidy. Will definitely rebook Katie for walks and house sitting x”

“Maddie looked after our ragdoll Kaspar for two weeks whilst we were away on holiday (staying at our house). Communication was great and regular pictures were sent whilst we were away. We came back to a happy cat and will book Maddie again”

“Mikey's first sitting with our 12 month old puppy went brilliantly. Mikey was punctual, followed all instructions diligently and was very attentive to our dogs needs who is in her first season and somewhat needy and clingy. Mikey left our home spic and span too, you couldn't ask for a better service, even sharing pictures of Siena enjoying her walkies and post walk naps and cuddles!”

Simon D.

“Stefania is absolutely lovely! Our dogs took to her so well and we could tell they adored her as soon as she met them. She kept us updated all day with pictures of the boys and fun little messages about what they had been up too! Would highly recommend Stefania”

Aimie P.

“This if the first time we have used Grace and we would highly recommend her. Our staffy Leo loved Grace, having dogs herself she was very comfortable with Leo meeting him for the first time a week before she sat for us. He had plenty of love and cuddles which is what he needed as this was the first time we have left him. Grace looked after our house which she looked after very well. I would highly recommend Grace to look after your pet and to house sit.”

“Emma did house sitting two times for us now and we are so happy we found her! She took great care of our dog and cat, as well as a few household items whilst we were away. We will definitely book her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Alice! 👋🐾 I’ve always been the person my family and friends call when they need someone they can completely trust to care for their pets and home while they’re away. After years of looking after dogs, cats and homes for the people closest to me, I decided it was time to turn something I genuinely love into a professional service. As a dog owner myself (my energetic Springer Spaniel, Ernie, certainly keeps me on my toes!), I understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs thrive on long countryside adventures, while others are happiest with a gentle stroll and plenty of sniffing. I always tailor walks and care to suit your pet’s age, breed, energy levels and routine. Ernie happily walks for up to an hour, so I’m more than comfortable with active dogs, but I’m just as happy taking things at a slower pace for puppies, seniors or more relaxed companions. Outside of pet sitting, I work in creative production where organisation, communication and attention to detail are part of my everyday life. I’m also a volunteer with the British Red Cross Emergency Response Team, so remaining calm, dependable and prepared comes naturally. Whether I’m caring for your pets or your home, you can be confident everything will be looked after with the same care and respect I’d expect for my own. What you can expect Every visit is centred around keeping your pet happy, comfortable and sticking to the routine they’re familiar with. Depending on your booking, this could include: 🐾 Walks tailored to your dog’s individual needs 🐾 Feeding, fresh water and administering medication if required (provided I’m given clear instructions) 🐾 Playtime, enrichment and plenty of fuss (if they enjoy it!) 🐾 Cleaning up after pets and keeping their living areas tidy 🐾 Lots of cuddles, companionship and reassurance while you’re away 🐾 Regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy If I’m staying in your home, I’ll also happily bring in post, water plants, put bins out, and leave everything clean, tidy and secure. Caring for different personalities Not every pet is instantly confident—and that’s absolutely okay. I take the time to let nervous or shy pets get to know me at their own pace and always use positive, patient handling. For energetic dogs, I’m happy to provide plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation to keep them occupied. My priority is making sure every animal feels safe, respected and cared for as an individual. My aim is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, keep your home safe and well looked after, and ensure you return to happy pets and a home exactly as you left it. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family members! 🩷🐶 I work full-time but have a flexible hybrid schedule and work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, so I can offer plenty of company, walks, toilet breaks and attention throughout the day. I’m also available for evening visits, overnight stays and weekends. As a dog owner myself, pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine! I’m used to planning my day around walks, feeding and making sure my own dog gets plenty of attention and stimulation. I know how much trust it takes to leave both your pet and your home in someone else’s hands, so I’ll always treat both with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, toilet breaks, sleeping arrangements and any specific instructions you leave. I’m careful with doors, gates and leads, and I’ll always make sure pets are safe and settled before leaving. I’m also very respectful of people’s homes and will keep everything clean, tidy and secure. Most importantly, I’ll send regular photos and updates so you can relax while you’re away knowing everything is in safe hands.

About: Hi, I’m Skye! I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely love caring for them. I have experience looking after dogs and cats for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know their needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, quiet cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I’ll provide patient and attentive care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and pet sitting. During visits I can feed pets, refresh water, administer basic oral medication if required, provide plenty of play and enrichment, clean litter trays or garden mess, and send regular photo and video updates so you know your pet is doing well. I work full-time during weekdays, (7:30-6in Bicester) so I’m available in the evenings, before work, weekends, and on many bank holidays. I’ll always be honest about my availability and will only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s routine. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I work full-time during the day (7:30-6pm in Bicester) , so I’m available for evening walks, drop-in visits and pet care after work on weekdays, as well as weekends. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly and make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise and care they need. I’m reliable, punctual and happy to work around your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication, walking routines and any special requirements. I take the time to build trust with every pet, provide plenty of affection and enrichment, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and well cared for.

“I had a fantastic experience with Paulina from the very beginning, she was very friendly, reliable and clearly cared about making sure my dogs were happy and well looked after. It was a real peace of mind knowing 2 dachshunds were in such good hands over the 2 days. Communication was excellent and Paulina went above and beyond, even walked them both which was brilliant as I came home to 2 very happy and contented dogs and it was such a huge help for me as I was extremely exhausted! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Paulina for being such a wonderful sitter!”
