Extremely reliable and pet/animal lovers

54, Part time Special Needs Support Worker and former NHS Worker - Current DBS held

56, Retired Special Needs Teaching Assistant - Current DBS held

We have shared our lives with various animal companions and enjoyed the varied and wonderful journey with our animal friends/family.
In 2019 we lost our 16 year old doggie companion Scamp and our 12 year old feline friend Oliver.
Our personal circumstances do not allow us to have pets of our own now but we feel that something wonderful is missing.
Therefore, being able to offer our experience and love will allow you, as pet owners, to holiday whilst feeling confident and assured that your family member(s) will be cared for and loved as if you are there.
We are extremely reliable, honest and trustworthy and a little insight into us as people, would be, that we have a Facebook page called Light Bottles for Charity and we sell light bottles and give all of our profit to Fleetwood Mustard Seed Group which supports the homeless, vulnerable and people in crisis.
We can provide character references.

We are so glad we found Gill and Steve. They were so flexible at really short notice when ill health forced us to change holiday dates.Communication beforehand was excellent. The sit went like a dream and we came home to an immaculate house (thank you so much) and happy contented dogs. Really we could not have asked for a better experience and Gill and Steve are genuinely very caring and kind people. Regular updates on the dogs care during our time away for peace of mind so a big thank you ... MORE

What a fabulous couple of housesitters! We had great communication throughout despite me losing my phone! Such nice and positive people. They were absolutely brilliant with- and very caring of my dog Meg who is suitablly exhausted now I'm back - wonderful (lol)! . They left the house spotless. I would highly recommend them to others and hope they will consider coming back sometime in the future!

Steve and Gill certainly deserve all their five star reviews! They really are lovely people and as soon as you meet them you immediately know that they genuinely care about looking after your pets and home. We felt completely at ease going away leaving our two dogs in their very capable hands. When we arrived back it was as if nobody had been there, everything was perfect. We can’t thank them enough and would love to have them back again. We can thoroughly recommend them but fear they will ... MORE
 
HEATHER (Cirencester England, Mar 2024 - 2 weeks)
I wanted to post a reivew for our Jan 24 house sit to say thank you to Gill & Steve for their understanding and flexibility. It was hugely regretful that I was taken into hospital unexpectedly and as a result, we were unable to travel. Steve and Gill were all lined up ready and it was unfortunately at very short notice that we had to cancel the arrangement with them, They were extremely understanding and we are indebted to them for their kindness when we were going through a really rough ...

Steve and Gill recently looked after our crew - one dog, one cat, two chickens and the house. Right from the beginning we felt comfortable about leaving them with our “family”. There was great communication before and during. The animals appear to have had a fabulous holiday with them - lots of attention, brushes, walks etc and adventures with the dog to NT grounds, cafes etc. The house was left clean and tidy - which was very much appreciated. We feel lucky to have met them and would be ... MORE

Steve and Gill are the perfect house sitters. They took fantastic care of our less than straightforward dogs, our cats and the hens. They left the house immaculately clean and tidy and their communication is perfect. This is their second house sit for us and we've already booked them for next summer. We can't recommend them more highly.
 
ANGELA (Newton Abbot England, Nov 2023 - 4 nights - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Our first use of housesitters and we could not be more delighted that we found Gill and Steve to look after our house and dogs! They have been amazing from our very first communication and we came home to 3 very happy dogs and a spotless house! Communication was great and we knew that our beloved dogs would be well cared for. Such lovely, caring people who genuinely want to look after your dogs and make them feel comfortable and happy while you are away. We have already booked for the ... MORE
 
JO (Altrincham England, Oct 2023 - 3 nights)
It’s been an absolute pleasure to have Gill and Steve come to our home and look after our six dogs for a second time. The dogs were very happy in their company and we were sent little updates with pictures while we were away. This was very reassuring, as we do miss the dogs, even if it’s just a day or two. We were also a little a-taken back by the fact the house was slightly cleaner than before we had left. This was not expected, but was very much appreciated! Thank you Gill and Steve, ... MORE
 
LAUREN (Chester England, Jul 2023 - 3 nights - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Gill and Steve, another wonderful house sit. Just returned home to happy, well exercised and entertained dogs who were positively beaming. House looks beautiful too, Thank you so much for going above and beyond to look after the dogs, chickens, house and keeping an eye on the Air BnB guests. Amazing. We cannot praise Gill and Steve highly enough for their care and consideration towards our property and pets. Communication excellent, before and during the sit. Gill an even bigger thank you ...

I really cannot recommend Steve and Gill more highly. Their communication, care, compassion and the pride they take in doing everything perfectly is truly impressive. They communicated brilliantly ahead of the house-sit and reassured me that our elderly (sick) dog wouldn’t be an issue for them. We have 3 dogs (small, medium and large) two cats and hens so ours isn’t a housesit for the faint hearted! Steve and Gill were superb, coping brilliantly with medication and night time incontinence. ... MORE
 
ANGELA (Newton Abbot England, Apr 2023 - 1 week - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Gill and Steve are absolutely lovely. Good, honest and genuine people. The communication was perfect from first contact, through to the house/dog sit. When we returned, we could tell immediately that the dogs were more than happy in their company. They have commented on every little detail of each of our six dog's personalities. This tells us they really have been caring with out beloved pack. We know they would have received many cuddles from our lot! They left our house just as we left it ... MORE
 
LAUREN (Chester England, Jan 2023 - 2 days - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
It was an absolute pleasure to have Stephen and Gill looking after our dog, Poppy and the house. I felt completely happy leaving her, safe in the knowledge that she would be well cared for by a kind, reliable couple. When we returned she was clearly contented and the house was beautifully kept. I would have no hesitation recommending Stephen and Gill as house sitters and would happily leave Poppy in their care again.

Cannot recommend Gill and Steve enough What lovely humans Great communication, pleanty of love and cuddles for my pets and left the house spotless What more could you want Hope they will come back one day
 
GILA (Christchurch England, Oct 2022 - 4 days)
I would like to review Gill and Steve as 5 stars in every aspect, really friendly people as soon as you meet them and extremely comfortable and happy to be caring for larger breed dogs. I recieved great communication from them and lots of pictures with the dogs on adventures to keep me updated. House was also sparkling when I returned, couldn't recommend this fab couple enough!
