Our Happy Clients

Paul and Mel are exceptionally professional and provide such a brilliant service.

We always find it difficult to get care for our two pets when we travel and it was very reassuring to know that such a diligent couple were able to stay in our home and give us a completely stress free holiday.

We came home to a beautifully clean house, a well brushed cat, and a dog that had clearly had the time of his life.

We will certainly use Paul and Mel again and thoroughly recommend them to anyone considering using the service.

Mel and Paul came to look after our whippet while we were on holiday.

He had been off his food and grieving for several weeks for our other whippet but with encouragement he ate well and has come out of his shell.

They sent me daily updates and took great care our house and even did a spot of gardening!

We will definately be calling Paul and Mel again in the future.


Paul and Mel are amazing. We were looking for some in-house sitters after moving to the area as our boys are getting older and because we often travel for a few weeks at a time.

They came over to meet us all abd so that we could show them the house beforehand. The boys didn't even bark when they arrived which told me they were accepted already. By the time we had drunk our tea, the dogs had staked their claim on feet and handbags lol.

We took a 2 day trip just to see how things went and suffice to say Paul and Mel are already booked for a 3 week sit later this year.

The boys were chilled and happy in their company and we came home to the beds already stripped and a tidy house. We can go away knowing our boys are going to loved and cared for in the same way that we do and our home is in safe hands.


"I cannot thank Paul and Mel enough for, well, everything really !

From animal sitting to coping with Airbnb guests, broken down fridge, garden etc, they simply couldn't have been more wonderful.

If you are lucky enough to have them sitting for you, you are extremely fortunate.

Five gold stars for Paul and Mel, along with bucket loads of gratitude."

"Mel and Paul were absolutely brilliant.

I had the pleasure of meeting them properly as they arrived the evening before so we could go through the details of the house and Sam thoroughly.

I was able to go away feeling 100% confident that Sam was in their very capable and caring hands, and I was right. They sent regular updates and photos, played with Sam lots, and I returned to a very happy and relaxed cat.

My house was spotless, laundry done despite my early arrival home, and we had a chance to exchange stories about what we'd been up to. Mel and Paul are the loveliest people and were a real pleasure to have in my home.

I'm really grateful for all they did for me and Sam, and hope they'd like to return one day."

"There are sitters and then there are fabulous sitters.

Paul and Mel were a perfect match for us because they are used to the vagaries of very old houses; enjoy walking in the countryside; calm, kind and caring with animals; and very experienced professionals in terms of the details involved when looking after a home, leaving everything in very good order.

We cannot thank them enough and have already booked them for another sit in September."


Paul and Mel are absolutely fantastic sitters and lovely people to boot.

They took great care of our (somewhat spoiled) French Bulldogs and the dogs loved them. 

We were kept informed through regular photos and updates during our time away and were super confident that the dogs and house were in safe hands. I can't recommend them highly enough. 

Thanks so much, Sandy, Fenton and Bruce look forward to you hopefully sitting them again in the future xx



Paul and Mel were fantastic!

Excellent communication throughout. They looked after our Doberman, cat, duck and tortoise whilst we were in Cornwall for a week. 

They sent us daily messages and photos and settled into our home brilliantly. They looked after our big house extremely well and left everything immaculate. 

They took our dog on lovely walks and we hope that they will come back when we go away again. 

We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Paul and Mel!

Mel and Paul were great.

I felt totally confident in them even though I sadly never met them.

They were organised and friendly and clearly cared for our elderly cat, giving us a couple of updates and photos.

I couldn't recommend them more highly than I do.

I wanted to say, Paul and Mel, that we are so very grateful for your care and attention of xxxxx. 

They were so calm and happy when we arrived home. 

It was lovely for us and very reassuring that they had loved their time with you and not missed us at all! 

You definitely have a gift and we are truly thankful that you enabled us to relax into our special day which was perfect.

Best wishes, xxxx
