Pet Sitting

​​​​​How much time will I spend at your house?

I’m based from your home for the whole stay, and while I may carry out a small number of local dog walks during the day, but your pets are never left for more than around 3 hours at a time.

They get company for the rest of the day and overnight, so there’s always someone around to keep

them happy, full, and settled.

​

How much does it cost?

• My standard rate is £60 per night, (with small additional charges for extra pets), which includes:
  - Overnight care
  - Daytime presence
  - Up to 2 walks per day
  - Each booking reserves my time across the full duration of your stay, not just overnight hours.
  - Pet sitting is charged per calendar day to reserve your dates and ensure full availability for your booking.

• Pet sitting for cats and other small animals is agreed individually by quote.​

​​​

Arrival and departure

• Arrival and departure times are agreed in advance.

• Where significantly extended hours are required on the final day (e.g. late evening returns), an additional charge may apply.

​

What I need before you go - 

Before the sit, I like to pop by for a meet & greet so I can meet you and your pets, get to know their routine, and make sure everything’s clear (feeding, walks, keys, vet info, etc.). These help your pets get to know me a little bit and feel more comfortable with me being in their home while you are away. It does sometimes take a day or two for them to get fully used to me, however meet & greets help begin this process.

• For insurance, safety, and comfort reasons, pet sitting is provided that no other individuals will be staying in or regularly accessing the property during the booking.
  If someone (e.g. family member, friend, cleaner etc.) needs access during this time, this must be discussed and agreed in advance.

​

Availability

• Limited availability due to the nature of live-in care

• Advance booking is strongly recommended (especially during holidays)

​​

Why choose live-in pet sitting?

• Live-in pet sitting is a premium service designed to give your pets the highest level of comfort, consistency, and care while you’re away.

• Pets stay relaxed in their own home, surrounded by familiar smells, sounds, and routines. This is especially helpful for nervous dogs, older pets, or animals who don’t cope well with new environments.

• Your pets receive one-to-one attention and care tailored to their individual requirements, rather than sharing staff time with lots of other animals. Your pets get lots of fuss, playtime, cuddles, and real human company throughout the day and night.

• No disruption to their daily routine - feeding times, walk times, sleeping places, and household rhythms all stay the same, which helps keep pets calmer and happier while you’re away.

• Avoids the stress of kennels or catteries, where it can be loud, busy, and overwhelming. Many pets end up anxious or unsettled in those settings, so staying at home is a much gentler option.

• Extra peace of mind for owners, knowing someone is living in the house, keeping an eye on things, and giving regular updates. It’s reassuring to know both your pets and your home are cared for.

• Perfect for multi-pet households - dogs, cats, and small pets can all stay together and follow their usual routines without needing separate boarding arrangements.

• Keeps everything running smoothly at home, from watering plants to taking bins out and bringing in post, so the house never looks empty and you come back to things exactly as you left them.
