House Sitting Thetford

“Julie house sat for us while we were gone for 4 days. She was able to manage both of our high energy dogs on daily walks and made an effort to stick to their normal routine. I would recommend her for anybody looking for pet care and will definitely use her again when we go out of town!”

About: I have owned cats all my life, from very sociable, playful cats, to timid, shy and anxious cats. I currently have two gorgeous bengal savannah cross kittens at home that are 4 months old. I know how important it is to make sure that even when we go away, and get that kitty parent guilt, there is someone to give that love and attention to your fur babies.

“Taylor is an amazing pet sitter and we couldn’t be happier with the care she gives our Frenchies, Remi and Buster. She is very friendly, caring, and pays so much attention to our babies. She spends time playing with them, keeps them happy, and she is always there for them.You can really see that Taylor is a true animal lover. When we come home, Remi and Buster are calm, relaxed, happy ,and clearly feel comfortable and loved. We really appreciate everything she does and we feel very lucky to have someone like her looking after them. Thank you so much, Taylor ! 🐾 🐾”

“Danielle was absolutely amazing looking after our Frenchie, Buster, while we had to rush our other Frenchie,Remi to the emergency hospital. It was a very stressful time for us, but knowing Buster was in such caring hands gave us real peace of mind. She was incredibly friendly, kind, and patient, making sure Buster felt calm, comfortable, and relaxed throughout her stay. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter during such a difficult situation. Many thanks Danielle 🐾 🐾”

About: • I'm an experienced live-in dog and house sitter who offers calm, consistent care, particularly for nervous, sensitive or rescue dogs who need patience and reassurance while their owners are away. • I've gained my experience through many successful house and pet sits, both independently and through TrustedHousesitters (where owners have consistently left excellent reviews). • Some dogs make friends straight away. Others need a little more time. I enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and helping them feel safe, comfortable and settled while you're away. • I work online (part-time), so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home. This is ideal for dogs who are used to having company or who need a little longer to settle. • I love being outdoors and usually walk twice a day myself. Whether your dog enjoys long adventures or prefers a gentle sniff around the neighbourhood, I'm happy to adapt to whatever suits them best. • I always stick as closely as possible to your dog's normal routine, whether that's favourite walking routes, regular mealtimes or simply having a cuddle on the sofa. • I'm based in Colchester and regularly travel throughout London and the South East, with availability across the UK for longer bookings. • I've completed Canine First Aid training and I'm continuing to learn more about canine behaviour and body language because I genuinely enjoy understanding what makes each dog tick. • One of the reasons I started house and pet sitting is that my own rescue dog had such a lasting impact on me. She taught me the value of patience and consistency. After she died, I wasn't ready for another dog of my own, and looking after other people's dogs became a way to stay connected to the animals I love. • I know it's hard leaving your dog with someone new. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your trip, and I'll always ask how often you'd like to hear from me. * I work online, so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home with them. * Morning walks, longer afternoon adventures or evening strolls, I can easily adapt to whatever routine your dog is used to. * I try to keep life as familiar as possible while you're away, so I do my best to follow your dog's usual routine for walks, meals, playtime and downtime. * I offer live-in dog and house sitting for overnight stays, weekends, holidays and longer bookings throughout the year. * Before a sit, I like to arrange a quick video call so we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure you feel completely comfortable before you head away. * Before each sit, I take the time to understand your dog's usual routine, from walks and mealtimes to favourite sleeping spots and the little things that help them feel settled. * I work online part-time, so I'm able to spend much of the day at home, providing companionship and helping your dog settle into their usual routine. * I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages while you're away. I'll also ask how often you'd like to hear from me, so you can choose the level of contact that feels right for you. * I genuinely enjoy looking after people's homes and take pride in treating every property with the same care and respect I would my own. I see myself as a temporary guardian of your home as well as your dog, and I always leave everything exactly as I found it.

“We’re so glad we found Cassie! We felt so at ease knowing our cat was being looked after by her. She was great at giving us updates and we came home from our holiday to a very happy and loved little cat.”

“Gary was absolutely brilliant looking after our Frenchies, Remi and Buster. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and treats them with great care, kindness, and attention. He took excellent care of them, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and followed everything we requested perfectly. Gary is a very reliable, friendly, and caring person a true animal lover. We felt completely at ease knowing our boy and girl were in such good hands. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we will definitely use him again in the future. THANK YOU GARY 🐾 🐾”

“Ellie was really lovely, and accommodating - doing a last minute sit for me when I was going to stay with a friend. I never met her as she had to complete her work day before coming, but she found her way in smoothly and everything went blissfully. She sent me regular updates every couple of hours - unusually frequent, and I really enjoyed seeing my two having a good time - a little tug at the heart strings and a feeling of love every time I got a new photo. I’ve asked my usual sitters to send more frequent updates now! I’d thoroughly recommend Ellie and would have her back in a heartbeat! Thank you Ellie, from Sandra, Yola and Flo ☺️🐾🐾”

“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets and have dog / house sat for many families and have walked family and friends pets as jobs over the past 25 years . I don’t have my own so am free to help with yours! My husband currently still travels for work so I have plenty of flexible time. I have just moved home to honington, suffolk from Bermuda and am looking to pet sit, dog walk any time as am currently not working so am very flexible with hours and time! I will happily look after your pet in your own home, I can also have a dog in my home as we live in a quiet village and have a big enclosed garden that is very safe and secure. I love to walk and would take care to walk your dog in the beautiful countryside.

“Izzy has been great with our new puppy who absolutely loves her and gets so excited when she walks through the door. She has remembered and taken into account every little detail we have told her about our puppy and kept that in mind whilst looking after him. I know he has such a great time every time she is here.”

“Susan is a very calm and personable lady who looked after our 14 year old dog Archie for a long day whilst we attended an event. We have a large fenced in garden with lots of hiding places where Archie often sleeps but she kept a very close eye on him throughout the day. Archie took to her immediately and when we arrived home, it was clear he had enjoyed the day with her. Will definitely book Susan again and can certainly recommend her.”

“Lily cared for my dog, Luffy, at my home and provided regular updates of his activities and did a great job of looking after my hyperactive monster. Luffy was happy and safe. Would contact Lily if you need a great sitter.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Tamara. From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals. She followed all my dog’s routines, gave them so much attention, and sent regular updates that made me feel completely reassured. I returned to a clean home and very happy dogs. Tamara goes above and beyond, she’s truly exceptional! Will definitely be recommending Tamara to our friends and booking with her again! Thank you Tamara.”
