Reliable dog and cat lovers who love to explore

58, Creative Coach and Artist

62, Founder of the 21st Century Tai Chi Online School

We're a friendly, self-employed couple, working mainly online with our respective creative businesses in coaching, art and Tai Chi. We're reliable, adaptable and love animals. We have had many cats and a wonderful dog for over 16 years. Sadly we don't have any animals at the moment so it's a joy to get to spend time with some friendly furries.

We recently sold our flat in Devon but the property we were buying fell through, so we're currently taking time out to travel round the UK and back to our other home in the Granada region of Spain (where we lived and worked for two decades). Right now we're looking for UK sits for 2023.

We're non-smokers and as far as diet goes, we hover between pescatarian and veggie. (Happy to eat veggie in your house if you prefer.)

We love both being in the heart of the city or immersed in nature. A good wifi connection is a definite bonus but we can get by on our 4G at a pinch.

We spent the whole period from May to end of Sept 2022 looking after pets and houses all over the UK and made lots of new friends both furry, feathered and human! We have an array of reviews and can provide ID. (Or Google us - we both have online businesses!)

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Our first time with house sitting - due to our senior dog benefitting from his home comforts - and Cherry & Paul were simply amazing. They came a night earlier for orientation and as well as being lovely guests they took time to get to know our dogs and understand their characters. Clearly experienced at this gig, they put us at ease, and we went away happily. House was immaculate upon our return, and the dogs very happy (though clearly missed Cherry & Paul!). Would definitely repeat the ... MORE

Paul and Cherry were great! They kept us updated on how the animals were and sent photos of them enjoying their walks. The house was spotless on our return. The animals all clearly were very well looked after and loved. Cant thank you enough for caring for our animals and home for us.
 
HANNAH (Bath England, Aug 2023 - 2 weeks)
Cherry and Paul are wonderful house sitters. I had made a slight date error because of a change in circumstances and some life events, and they were very patient about it. We came home to a lovely clean and tidy house and very happy pets. As Cherry and Paul are very experienced house sitters, they were excellent letting us know what information they needed from us, and were then content just to crack on with it. Lovely communication during the stay. Highly recommended house sitters. Thank you ... MORE

We have no hesitation in recommending Cherry and Paul as house sitters. Our house was looked after and all the pets - dog, cats, chickens, fish well cared for. Thank you. Mark and Helen.

A lovely, experienced house sitting couple. We arrived home to a happy dog, well fed cats and a well looked after home. While away the communication was excellent, especially when the alarm went off after a power cut. I would definitely recommend them and hope they return in the future.

Leaving Ruby our much loved and cherished whippet with Cherry and Paul was very easy, it was so obvious that she was going to be spoilt rotten. Cherry and Paul were great communicators and we also received several photos of our mad cap whippet playing relaxing and just having fun it was lovely to think Ruby was happy and enjoying new company. Our garden is a mass of pots at this time of year and Cherry and Paul kept everything thriving I was delighted to see everything looking so well cared ... MORE

This was our first experience with House Sitters and it could not have been better. Cherry and Paul are a delightful couple who took great care both of our elderly springer Minnie and of our house. They also kept us updated with photos of Minnie during the fortnight which was very reassuring. Paul even left us a meal to come back to after our long journey home which was greatly appreciated. We would not hesitate in recommending them nor of inviting them back next time we go away.
 
CHRISTINE (Truro England, Mar 2023 - 2 weeks)
We are really pleased that we found Cherry and Paul to house sit for us in January and February. They bonded with our rather grumpy cat Nodger and he was in fine form when we got back. Communication was good and we got some lovely photographs of Nodge while we were away. We'd really recommend Cherry and Paul; they looked after the house and cat really well.
 
CAROLINE (Stroud England, Jan 2023 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Paul and Cherry could not have been better house sitters. They left the house and dog(!) cleaner than they they arrived, and were very calm and reassuring.

Cherry and Paul were fantastic. This was our first sit and they really put our minds at rest. Great communication throughout and sent us some lovely photos to show Watson was having fun.. Took great care of our home whilst we were away. Highly Recommended!

Cherry and Paul were great, no issues!
 
JOANNA (Shrewsbury England, Jul 2022 - 8 days)
Cherry and Paul were fantastic sitters,Sasha was very well cared for and had obviously made good friends with them. All the plants were well watered in the excessive heat and the garden looked great. The house was spotless on our return, milk in the fridge and soup on the stove! How lovely! They are very welcome to call in or stay anytime, they are lovely people! Thank you.
 
LOUISE (Borth Wales, Jul 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Cherry & Paul were great house sitters. They looked after our house and animals just as well as we would have done. They sent beautiful photos and updates every few days and I would high recommend their services!
 
LORNA (Lydney England, Jun 2022 - 1 week)
Many thanks to Cherry and Paul for looking after our dogs and house so well. They are, calm, organised people who made the whole experience trouble-free and allowed us to not worry while we were away.. They sent us regular updates and photos of the dogs which it was great. I can thoroughly recommend Cherry and Paul, top sitters.
 
ADAM (Langore, Nr Launceston. England, Jun 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Cherry and Paul were perfect house sitters, caring for our spaniel, cat and 3 hens. Bumble the spaniel clearly took to them, and I think Paul particularly bonded with the hens, who followed him about :D They sent us photos and tales while we were away to give us peace of mind. We came home to a tidy house and happy animals. Thank you Paul and Cherry, you came as strangers and left as friends!

House Security

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
