About Debbie
A happy hello, we're Debbie and Dave. We have 40+ FIVE STAR reviews on another pet sitting platform (just ask for a link). We've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, a hamster, and a pig. We're fully insured and are non smokers.
WE ADORE FURRY SNUGGLES! We're so happy to have shared our "official" pet/house sitting journey with 70+ furry friends PLUS a colony of 12 outdoor cats, and 22 feathery friends, and we're delighted (OVER THE MOON!) when we're asked back for return sits.
We sit as a couple, which means pets get double the cuddles and affection for the price of one. It's especially helpful for multiple pets, energetic dogs, and those that pull on the lead.
We have had many loved pets ourselves over the years. Between us our own pets in the past have included dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, fish, a duck, and a parrot.
We LOVE pet sitting, but what began as a way to top up our hearts with furry snuggles, fast became an amazing full-time way of life, filled with fun and furry characters. In 2023, we turned our own home into a holiday cottage while we spend time with fun and furry new friends.
On the house-sitting side of things, we've plenty of experience, from owning our own home, owning rental properties, and carrying out refurbishments on our various properties too. Also, I (Debbie) used to own a cleaning business that employed 12 staff until I sold it many years ago. Therefore, we are used to caring for properties, and have a common-sense approach, should anything unknown happen, like frozen pipes or power cuts.
We live a quiet life, we're polite and friendly with neighbours, we're well-behaved, and house trained!
Please feel free to ask any questions. We're very friendly and more than happy to answer anything. Some pets just don't settle very well in kennels, catteries, and other people's homes, and we'd love to help if we can.
PS If you haven't had anyone stay in your home to look after your pets before, you'll find us very easy to chat with.
