House Sitting in Torridge

“We booked Courtney for a day of house sitting for our 15 week old puppy, Mae. When we returned home at 8pm Mae was happy and relaxed, obviously she'd had a good day. Will definitely book again in the future. Thanks to Courtney, with updates during the day we didn't have to worry about our fur baby.”

“Nicky is an incredibly kind and friendly lady whose care and concern for us and our cats for our first sitting was incredible. She obviously loves animals and knows how to relate to cats. She put us at ease with loads of phots and videos. It’s reassuring to know that we can get away for a while and she is there to keep watch on them.”

“We couldn't be happier with Holly and Giles and their dog sitting over four days. During the meet and greet, before accepting the request, they instantly hit it off with our dog and were very thorough with questions abouts our dog's needs and routines. Holly was always quick to respond to messages and sent us pictures and videos during the actual dog sitting. As well as treating our dog with respect, it was clear they also treated our house with respect during their stay.”

“We are so incredibly grateful to Leah and Tim. Such a lovely couple, they came to look after our (very active) pointer for the night whilst we went to a party. They took great care of River and left the place immaculate. Hope we get to see you both again on the future x”

“Richard and Emma were amazing. Olly and Pluto were so chilled and enjoyed their trips out. We would definitely recommend Rich and Emma. They are lovely people and kept us up to date with photos and videos. The house was immaculate when we got home and we will definitely keep in touch.”

“Kizzie is a kind, intelligent, calm & knowledgeable dog sitter. She looked after my dog who is only 4 months old for one week, and I have come back to a calm and well behaved little puppy. Thank you Kizzie for your care and attention to baby Molly. I would wholly recommend Kizzie. She kept me informed all week and I wasn’t worried at all about Molly. Thanks again.”

About: I'm a qualified dog walker and pet sitter. I have qualified in level 2 animal care, level 2 vet nursing and level 3 pet first aid. I have grown up with a variety of different types of pets. I have been working with dogs for the last 8 years. I work with your pets during the day and then I have an evening job that is 3 hours and not related to animals. The evening job is near my home, so I will only do it if I'm on local sits. I will put your dogs in a crate or a safe room in the house, if I'm going out to the shops. I make sure outside space is safe for your pet.

About: I have a lifetime of experience with animals, especially dogs and cats, as I grew up with a highly intelligent German Shepherd who was my family. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for many different breeds - Border Collies, Retrievers, Dachshunds, Samoyed, English Spaniels/Cocker Spaniels, Boston Terriers, Toy Poodles, Cockapoos, French Bulldogs, Mastiffs, Pomeranians, Goldendoodles, Wire Fox Terriers, Pugs, and of course Shepherds, as well as many cats, giving me years of hands-on pet care experience. I’ve also spent time walking and playing with dogs at a shelter (many wonderful mixed breeds), so I understand how to care for pets with different temperaments, energy levels, and needs. Since moving to the UK, I don’t have pets of my own yet, so it would be an absolute pleasure to care for yours! Whether it’s puppy care, playtime, walks, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m here to provide loving, attentive, and responsible care. I have a flexible schedule as I work from home, which allows me to be available any day of the week for pet care. Your pet will never be left alone for long, and I can easily adjust to their routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. I live on a farm with plenty of open space for dogs to walk, run, and play freely. If caring for pets in their owner's home, I ensure they feel secure and relaxed by sticking to their familiar routines, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they are always well-fed, exercised, and cared for. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities! 🐾

About: Over the last 4 decades I have loved and cared for a multitude of my own pets from cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, cockatiels, finches, fish and chickens. I have raised rabbits, cats and hens from babies.I have offered been the go to friend to take care of others pets, from taking care of cats, to walking dogs or caring for tortoise. Animals have always been an important part of my life. As I currently work part time and am also self employed I can offer more flexibility. As a pet owner I understand the importance of having the right person to love and take care of your pets when you're away, I can offer house sitting on the weekend and also school holidays and drop ins at other times. Pet friendly home where safety and happiness is paramount. As an energetic individual your pets would get the attention they need and would enjoy lovely walks and cuddles.

“Ellie was brilliant with our anxious rescue dog and was very attentive to his needs. We enjoyed our time out knowing he would be well looked after. We had photo updates and could see how happy he was, due to her kindness. Thank you Ellie!”

About: I have had experience with lots of different animals since a young girl including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and hamsters, I have always walked dogs since a young girl too it’s therapy for me as well. Pet care is the first thing I do when I get up, through out the day and the last thing I do before I go to sleep. My dogs have the roam of the whole house with several beds and a bit to many toys. They aren’t supposed to be on the bed but that rule went out the window quickly. My dogs get walked everyday. My guinea pigs always have access to hay at all times. Space to roam about in. They have comfy beds on top of there bedding. Treats and food always available with fresh veg in between. My hamster has the same level of care as my guinea pigs.
