"Where do I begin… Farhana is AMAZING. We were so nervous to have a brand new sitter come and stay at our house for 2 weeks but we are beyond thrilled to have found Farhana and any doubts we may have had were erased so quickly. We have a big Doberman who can be intimidating to people at first but is in fact a complete love bug and a kitten. Farhana sent us photos and videos of them every day all snuggled up with her and just knowing they fell in love with her and were being safe and cuddled made us SO happy and reassured. Not only could we tell how much our paw babies loved her but she is beyond professional. We have had extremely expensive “dog trainers” who house sat for us and let me tell you, Farhana exceeded them in every single way. I am yet to meet another sitter in the Berkshire area who is as professional, calm, prompt, communicative, positive and respectful as Farhana. On top of our four paws being loved our home was so looked after, we came home to a beautiful, freshly cleaned house that looked even better than when we left! Farhana went above and beyond in every way.
Obie and Tux could not have been happier than they were with her and the house looked amazing upon our return. We had constant contact and reassurance and knew that Farhana really cared. She picked up on their personality quirks almost instantly which showed how in tune with them she was. She took Obie on great walks and gave her the exposure she needed, yet she took no risks and kept them safe whilst also relaxing with them and spoiling them. This is very rare. If you are questioning hiring her - don’t. Thank you Farhana for everything."

"Elliot was a great cat sitter, able to confirm early and house sit for our two cats while we were away.
Our house was well looked after, as we’re both cats.
He sent regular updates, dealt with a few surprise mouse deliveries and our supporter our technology addiction (digital cat flaps and feeders) very well.
Looking forward to being able to travel again soon knowing we have a trusted cat sitter to rely on."

"Thanks so much Emma for your diligent care of Minty!
Emma followed all of my instructions carefully as Minty is on a very specialised diet due to chronic kidney disease.
She is very clean and tidy and left the house spotless!
We look forward to hosting you again."

"Ellen came to our home to look after our excitable Cockapoo while we went away for a few days just before Christmas. From the start of our communications she (and her partner, Ollie!) was responsive and well-organised. She popped round to meet us and get to know our pooch and seemed happy to take in all my anxious rambling about his many eccentricities. Our dog isn’t crazy about being left by himself, so it was really important to us to find a sitter who didn’t mind being with him - and therefore at home - for pretty much the duration of the stay. Ellen got this at once and as she needed to study, I hope the arrangement worked well for her too. She arrived when she said she would, amidst our chaotic family get-away efforts and was calm and practical as we handed over. During the sit, Ellen kept in touch, sending photos and updates each evening. Our dog was clearly relaxed, following his usual routine and having a lovely time. On our return, the house was clean and tidy and exactly as we could have wished - doggy had been walked and was his normal, mad, shaggy self. We couldn’t be be happier and will gladly approach Ellen again when we next plan to go away. She is calm, organised and caring - she understands animals (and their owners) - and I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone."

"We cannot recommend Rich highly enough. He looked after our pets (cat & dog) exceptionally well during our week away. He provided daily updates, photos and video clips as to how they were getting on; it was very reassuring to get the updates and see how content and well looked after they were. I’d left pages of instructions and Rich followed them to the letter! Rich dealt amazingly well with our fiesty rescue cat George, administering meds and cleaning up vomit. And he showed such kindness and sensitivity to our rescue dog who can still sometimes find new situations a bit overwhelming. Rich was very professional and flexible - our flight out was cancelled (so plans needed to be rescheduled) and we were slightly delayed coming back. We came home to two very happy pets, a clean and tidy house and Rich had even got us in some bread, milk & eggs in case we got back late. So thoughtful & very much appreciated. Rich went above and beyond, in not only caring for our pets, but making sure we were well informed, reassured and, once we got home, well fed! Thank you."

"Paris is an excellent dog-sitter, she takes exceptional care of my very elderly retriever. She has done a couple of overnight sits with my dog and I wouldn't hesitate to strongly recommend her. You can safely leave your pet and your home in her hands!"

"Nathan was a great dog sitter and our two dogs really liked him. We met him in advance and had no hesitation leaving him in charge of our dogs and house. Nathan came after work each evening staying over night. We did arrange for a neighbour to let them out at lunchtime, but Nathan walked them each day. We look forward to using him again. "

"Our dog Kojak was in love with Lydia from the moment they met and he is very particular about who he will go to. Felt very happy leaving him and our cat Jib in her care while we were on holiday for two weeks and she was great at updating us with pics of her with the pets. It was lovely to relax while we were away knowing that they were happy in her care. Everything was ship shape on our return and we would very much like to use her again in the future. "

"Eilidh is responsive, professional and kind. As a dog parent, travelling has always been a major consideration, somewhat a dread if I’m honest as I’m always worried about the little ones. Eilidh made my trip possible, enabling me to have some “me” time.
Some of the highlights:
- Responsiveness: Outstanding communication. Eilidh responded with 15 minutes at all times, pre, during and post dog sitting.
- Genuine love for the dogs: Eilidh was welcome to go out for a few hours per day, but she rarely left the dogs. Maximum time she left the dogs was 2 hours in a 24 hour period. This was over a four day period. This is wonderful to see as Eilidh genuinely wanted to spend time with them despite she had my permission to go out for longer. She also slept on the sofa to keep the dogs company as they were not allowed in bedrooms.
- Transparency: I was able to leave Furbo on to keep an eye on things. Complete trust and transparency.
- Toy breed: Eilidh looked after my toy breed dogs, appreciating that at 2kg they are much more fragile so Eilidh was very careful with them
- Mixed ages: From the age of 4 months to 8 years.
- Medication administration: One of my senior dogs has a heart problem, Eilidh administered the medication punctually and correctly.
- Diet: Dogs are raw fed, Eilidh handled raw meat with ease.
- House maintenance: My home was well maintained, a respectful guest.
I am a repeat customer of Eilidh and will continue to be, as a professional working in the city, Eilidh has given me the freedom to travel knowing that my little ones will be well cared for. I would highly recommend her!"

"Charlie and Siohban came and stayed in our home with our two older dogs for a week while we were gone. They were quick to respond to all messages and questions. I sent full instructions for both our dogs about medications, feeding,,and walks. They understood everything I had asked of them. They are super caring and have a great way of connecting right away with your pets. They even took are small dog Hendrix to the vet when he wasn’t well.. Informed us of how he was doing. When we returned both dogs were calm and happy. Our home was super clean. We are incredibly happy to have found them. And will definitely be using them often."
