My Services
My Pet & House Sitting Services
Depending on whether you need a pet sitter, a house sitter or both of my services, each experience is tailored to each of my clients.
You might need me for just a couple a days, or if you’re going on holiday or planning to be out of the country for more than a couple of weeks, then I am happy to help you out.
Pet Care & Household Tasks
During the time you are away, your animals will keep to their routines and I’ll ensure your home stays clean, tidy and secure – just as you left it. I can also pick up your post, accept deliveries, water your plants and handle any emergencies in your absence.
I provide daily updates on your pet(s) – I can send you updates via text, including photos of what they have been up to, providing you with the reassurance that they are happy and well looked after. However, if you prefer not to receive these or would like them less frequently just let me know – it’s your booking, so I will tailor it to your needs.
Any special arrangements can be requested at the meet and greet.
Sits offered
As part of my pet and house sitting, I offer the following types of sits:
- Day sits
- Overnights sits
- 1 week and 2 week sits
- Care for dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters and chickens (no reptiles or horses)
- Medication

- All services are offered in your home.
Book Your Meet & Greet with Me
A meet and greet will be arranged in person for local sits and a zoom call can be arranged for long-distance sits. This initial chat will allow us to exchange information about your needs, number of pets, dates, special requirements etc., as well as prices, conditions and signing the contract.
A non-refundable deposit of 25% will be taken at the time of booking and the balance is due the day before the sit begins.
I am fully insured and DBS checked.

Having your house occupied gives you peace of mind so you can relax and enjoy your trip. I can also pick up your post, accept deliveries, water your plants and handle any emergencies.

As a pet owner for many years I know the comfort and security pets gain from kind, loving attention – their welfare is my top priority.
