Paul is a real gentleman who is punctual, considerate and caring. I had asked Paul to be flexible for a sit of 2 - 3 weeks and in the end I only needed him for 2 weeks and he was happy to oblige. When I introduced Paul to my 2 horses, both gentle giants at 17hh, was was unfazed by their size and the horses reacted very well to him. Paul seemed tp enjoy spending time with the horses, grooming them and poo-picking in the field. He coped with my cat who doesn't like strangers and ensured he was ... MORE

Paul looked after our 2 labradors with such care and attention. The dogs immediately took to him. He sent us regular updates and photos. Making us feel assured all was well at home, whilst away. We came home to 2 very happy dogs, Paul left the house looking spotless and even picked some early daffodils to welcome us home. I would happily recommend him.

Paul was fantastic in all ways. Great communication leading up to the sit. Friendly and communicative when we were away. Paul took fantastic care of all the animals and our home was completely spotless on our return. We would love for Paul to sit for us again. Thank you so much.

Big thanks to Paul for looking after Aadi. Communication prior to the sit was clear and efficient, Paul was punctual and Aadi very well looked after (despite Aadi's initial nervousness). Highly recommended.
 
ANNABEL (King’s Somborne England, Dec 2023 - 3 nights)
From the start we had great communication. Paul was fabulous with Meg and very caring taking her to the vets twice for me in my absence. He even did a few jobs for me in the house (spontaneously) and left flowers - a lovely gesture. The house was clean, neat and tidywhen I got home. Paul is a fabulous housesitter who I hope will come back sometime. He's very welcome.
 
DEBBIE (Bag Enderby England, Nov 2023 - 2 weeks 2 nights)
Paul is a wonderful gentleman and an excellent communicator. We were confident as soon as we spoke to him that the dogs, various other animals and house would be in safe hands. We were very grateful for his help and could not recommend him highly enough. Thank you Paul.
