Your Best Friend's Friend

51, Counsellor

67, retired

Hi, we are Mila and Derek, a friendly couple and experienced housesitters happy to look after your pets while you are away. We live in Marlow (Buckinghamshire) and love nature, animals, long walks and exploring new beautiful places. Mila works as a counsellor and psychotherapist and Derek is retired and enjoys cycling, climbing, long-distance walking, reading and learning.

We are looking for house and pet sitting opportunities in different parts of the country.

Here are some of the things we are good at:

- Caring for cats, dogs, hamsters, chinchillas, ponies and more (we haven’t met a pet crocodile yet!)
- Looking after your plants and house (Derek is a keen gardener and handyman)
- Adapting to your needs and schedule (we are happy to do our best to work around your plans and preferences)
- Taking your dog(s) on exciting walks

We are flexible and adaptable, with a couple of our own requirements that we hope you can meet:

- Ability to go on long walks and explore the area (we love nature and adventure!)
- Good internet with a stable connection so that Mila can work with her counselling clients online.

We will be happy to take care of your house and pet-friends while you are away. Please feel free to get in touch with us anytime. We would love to hear from you and discuss how we can help you with your house and pet sitting needs.

Mila and Derek were wonderful with Nico and the cats. They were happy and well looked after and the house was clean with regular contact and pictures of my fur babies. Would highly recommended them :)

Mila and Derek are a lovely couple who looked after our two cats while we were away on holiday. All communication was great. They sent photos and updates of the sit and we came home to two happy cats. Thank you.

Mila and Derek were very friendly and easy going people who we met for a night before we left to go away. They clearly love dogs and looked after Rosie and Bindi very well. We appreciated the home cooked food to return to and would happily recommend them or have them return to sit again.

Mila and Dereck did a sit for us for 12 days. We met before the sit as they came all the way here 2 weeks before. They were very friendly and it was obvious they were good with animals! The dog and the cat loved them. Our dog had loads of walks in our beautiful Cotswolds. She was very well looked after! We couldn't have asked for more! They gave the cat her daily medication and played with her. We received lots of brilliant photos and videos which was great and reassuring. We can ... MORE

Mila and Derek were lovely dog and house sitters. They kept us updated with photos and videos of their walks with Gus and messages about how he was. The house was spotless on our return. Gus had clearly had a great time in their care.
