Written by the company

House and Home Sitters Ltd is now proudly in its 14th year, providing professional, trustworthy live-in care for homes and pets while their owners are away. Our handpicked house sitters and pet sitters are ID- and address-verified, carefully vetted, and selected for their reliability, capability, friendliness and respect for client privacy. Each sitter undergoes a personal interview and reference checks. We believe our company is only as good as the people who represent it. We have turned away sitter applicants who came highly reviewed elsewhere because they did not meet our own standards, including in communication, reliability or follow-through. We take every assignment seriously, honour our commitments, and provide a premium service at competitive professional house-sitting rates. Our reputation is reflected in excellent reviews on Trustpilot, Google and Yell, and in the many clients who return to us or recommend us to others. Unlike anonymous online platforms, we provide a personal service. You deal with a real person who remains involved before, during and after your house sit. You’ll find more information on our website: https://houseandhomesitters.co.uk

Couldn't ask for better sitters!

This is the second time that Delia and Kenny have looked after my cat, Holly. Again they have done a fantastic job in looking after both her and my home. Delia is the epitome of a cat lover and you can see how much she enjoys looking after your pet and does it so well! I can truly relax whilst away, knowing that Holly is in the safest hands possible. Kenny and Delia also looked after my home so well and the place was spotless on my return! Would love to have them back in the future for any sittings required. Thoroughly recommend!

Hi again, Karen. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a wonderful five-star review.
I'm delighted that Delia and Kenny once again took such excellent care of Holly and your home. Delia really is devoted to cats, so it's lovely to hear that Holly was so well looked after and that you were able to relax completely while you were away.
I'm also pleased that you returned to a spotless home. That's exactly the standard we strive for, and I'll be sure to pass your kind comments on to Delia and Kenny – they'll be thrilled to receive them.

Thank you again for your continued support and recommendation. We look forward to helping you with many more house sits in the future.

Total peace of mind.

It was so lovely to be able to go away without any worries at all. Bernie is meticulous, loving and goes over and beyond any expectation with animal care. I returned to happy dogs and a happy cat and a clean house. Bedding was washed and dried which was not expected or necessary. A charming man who I will hopefully have the pleasure of seeing again with the pets. Thank you 🤩

We cannot speak highly enough of Dawn…

We cannot speak highly enough of Dawn and Simon. It was a long sit – 3 months – and we were never worried. They kept us informed and were always ready to step up and deal with any requests. And, most important to us, they were very popular with our dog, Missy, who was relaxed, happy and healthy. We have booked them again for another sit later in the year! Thanks also to Dave, who introduced Dawn and Simon, and organised everything so efficiently.

Highly recommended

House and Home Sitters provided the perfect solution for looking after our puppy while we were away a couple of times recently. Dave Price was quick to respond and found a brilliant couple, Roger and Lisa, who could cover both trips. The puppy was very happy with them and was delighted to see them again for the second visit (as were we!). The house was immaculate, plants cared for, and it was good to have some updates for peace of mind while we were away. An excellent experience using the company all round.

Thank you very much for your wonderful five-star review.

I’m delighted that Roger and Lisa were able to care for your puppy on both occasions and that everything went so smoothly. It’s especially lovely to hear that your puppy was so happy to see them again – that’s always the best endorsement.

I’m also pleased that the updates gave you peace of mind and that you returned to an immaculate home. That reassurance while you’re away is exactly what we aim to provide.

It was a pleasure assisting you, and we’d be very happy to help again whenever you next need us.

Great service at the ladt minute

After being let down by our original house sitters (arranged through another organisation) we found Dave at House and Homesittets through Google. He very quickly arranged for Sina to look after our house, 3 cats and dog within a couple of days of our departure. Sina was excellent. She soon bonded with our pets and left us feeling confident after a handover over dinner the night before departure. On return, we were greeted by healthy and happy pets and a clean and tidy house. What more could we want! We would have no hesitation in going back to House and Homesitters again.

Tom, I’m really pleased we were able to step in and help at short notice, especially after you’d been let down elsewhere. It’s great to hear that everything fell into place so smoothly and that Sina was such a good fit for you, your home and your pets — she’ll be delighted to read your comments.

An efficient reliable housesitting experience

An efficient reliable housesitting service introduced us to Bernie, an experienced housesitter, who was reliable and enthusiastic about the week in our house with our terrier. He relayed messages and kept us informed whilst cherishing his time discovering the local area on dog walks! Would definitely recommend .

We had a fabulous couple Roger & Lisa house sit for us over Christmas and New Year, we have 2 dogs, one old and one very young, so both needing slightly different care. Dave was very quick to get back to us and as always communication was excellent, listening to all our needs for a smooth house and dog sit at this particular time of year.
We could not have been happier with Roger & Lisa, they were brilliant with the dogs, kept to our routine and we came home to an immaculate house and very happy dogs, all was perfect!
I would highly recommend House& Home Sitters for any future house or dog sits.

I’m delighted that Roger and Lisa were such a good fit for you and your two dogs, especially over the Christmas and New Year period, when routines really matter. It’s great to hear that they followed your instructions so carefully and that you returned to a happy home and very contented dogs.

Excellent all round ....

House and Home Sitters Ltd recently carried out a sit for our labrador, 2 horses, 3 chickens and 5 ‘semi-wild’ outdoor cats. Although a complicated set-up, and not the best of weather, our sitters were undaunted, very professional in their outlook and looked after everything just as we’d hoped. We have now booked Wendy and Hugh again for 2026, knowing we can go away and relax without any worries as to what might be happening back at base!
Dave (the company owner) was very quick to respond to any queries or concerns we had prior to booking, showed flexibility for a ‘no fault’ cancellation when our dog snapped his cruciate (the day before our original booking) and we have no hesitation in recommending House and Home Sitters Ltd.

Thank you so much, Lynn (and Jon), for this wonderfully detailed 5-star review. We’re delighted that Wendy and Hugh were able to care for your Labrador, horses, chickens, and your ‘semi-wild’ outdoor cats so successfully – whatever the weather!
It’s especially lovely to hear you’ve already rebooked for 2026 and can head away with complete peace of mind – that’s exactly what we aim to provide. Thank you also for your kind words about our flexibility and communication.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to returning to you again many times in the future.

A fantastic company delivering peace of mind

The response time was super quick and the individual who dealt with my query could not have been more helpful or informative. I was kept up to date with every step of the process and had every reassurance that I would be allocated an experienced sitter. The sitter turned out to be above expectations, was excellent in communication and extremely professional. An excellent company offering excellent service. Can't recommend highly enough

Great experience

Very happy with the whole experience and would use again. Dave was very thorough and professional during the booking process. The sitter (Sandra) was great with both the cats and the house, she followed our detailed instructions and left the house in an immaculate condition.

Excellent service from start to finish

David was very efficient and the whole process of finding a sitter was stress free for us. I had complete confidence that he would find someone suitable and reliable which was well placed as Richard was a very good housesitter. He communicated with us beforehand, was efficient in every way and most of important of all, took great care of our standard poodle and our house for ten days. Our dog was happy with him and he sent us great photo updates of their walks. He was not phased by our rather acute water shortage, and other inconveniences of life in the middle of nowhere. He even got up at 4am to make us a cup of tea when we got back from the airport! We went away knowing everything was in safe hands and that makes all the difference to a holiday.

David offers an exceptional service at House & Home Sitters Ltd. We had complete confidence in leaving our dogs under the care of his trusted sitter, Naomi, who was incredibly kind, caring, and professional. What impressed us the most was the effort that David and his sitters made to ensure our dogs felt comfortable and at home in our absence, providing them with reassuring care and attention. The service we received was remarkable, demonstrating immense care and sincerity. We would highly recommend House & Home Sitters for anyone seeking trustworthy care for their dogs

Excellent Service

We had never used a house/pet sitter before and were a bit nervous about leaving our 2 dogs and cat but from the moment Adina walked through the door, we knew they would be safe and well cared for.
Adina was very calm and confident with our dogs (who are very lively despite the fact that they are getting on a bit). We were sent WhatsApp messages every day by Adina (at our request) and were able to relax knowing they were happy.
When we returned home, the house was very clean and tidy, probably cleaner than when we left it, and we would not hesitate to recommend Adina and House and Home Sitters to anyone looking for pet/house sitting services and we have already discussed booking Adina again through the company.

David runs a first-rate service

David runs a first-rate service. We like to have house sitters looking after our home whenever we go away, and David has provided us with charming people to do this.
Wendy and Hugh have looked after our house on a couple of occasions and this summer, Peter came.
All of the sitters have been genuinely lovely people. Wendy and Hugh are a great couple who take care of the house perfectly. Peter was amazing - both a very interesting person and also very organised! IN fact, when we came home, not only had he got some provisions in for us (very welcome after a long journey) but the house was immaculate - tidier than it has been all year!
I cannot recommend David and his company highly enough and would be delighted to see Wendy, Hugh or Peter in the future.

Would use again and recommend

Dave was efficient in setting up the sit and replied promptly to any communication. Bernie was very easy to deal with before and during the sit.
Bernie coped well with the expected challenges of a young dog and an old dog and also with the unexpected challenges of a heatwave and an infestation of ants! He was very reassuring about everything, left the house clean and the dogs had clearly had a great time with him. Allowed us to have a holiday with no worries or hassles from home.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A 5 star service, highly recommended.

From the start Dave was so helpful and efficient. We needed a House Sitter at very short notice but have many animals needing care, dogs, cat, hens, ducks and a pony. Not to mention being rather remote. Dave came up with the ideal person, Paulina. She is charming and so capable and delightful. She coped with everything in our absence and all the animals were in great form on my return
On a second occasion Wendy and Hugh came to house sit and they too were excellent. Wendy and I had had a chat on the phone beforehand and I could explain how things work here, being a working farm there are different priorities here. They were wonderful with all the dogs and puss cat too, who can sometimes be very offhand. They were great with Dolly the pony and the chickens and they said they had really enjoyed being here which was good to hear. I would most definitely recommend them, and in fact they are booked to come here again in the New Year.
Dave and HHS do an excellent service, matching the right sitters to the clients and I have no hesitation in recommending him and his team. Far and away the best Agency I have ever used.
