Our Sitters

The majority of our sitters are retired couples or individuals who do this kind of work almost as a hobby or interest. They are personally selected for their positive attitude, experience with animals and their ability to get on with people, as well as for their personal integrity and trustworthiness. They
have to be mature and come from all manner of professional backgrounds from all parts of the U.K.
Having a large number of potential sitters enables us to choose who we think will be the right person for you, bearing in mind the requirements of the assignment and your geographical location.
We are most successful when our sitter becomes your friend, someone who becomes an essential part of your holiday planning, and this is achieved by doing those little things over and above your own requirements.
Our sitters are given a set of rules to follow on every assignment, in addition to your own, to cover things like not having visitors, the time spent on your premises, the use of the telephone, taking messages, caring for your animals and property, respecting your confidentiality and reporting to you on your return.
We follow up the beginning of every assignment to check that all is well, and follow up also with our clients to check that they were satisfied with their sitter. All comments and any constructive suggestions are accepted in confidence and we are always looking for new recruits!
