Sitter Gardener

56, Gardener

I am single man who has returned to UK 8 years ago from living in Australia for over 2 decades.
I returned to be closer to my mum who passed away in early 2022.
I have been a house/pet sitter extensively in the UK and abroad and have verifiable references to this effect.
My main work is gardening, but am able to adapt and to help out in most areas... Please contact me by phone if you prefer...

John was perfect. Excellent communication skills (before and during his stay) which immediately gave us confidence and assurance that we were leaving our home in safe hands. He kindly came to visit prior to our departure. Our dogs thrived under John’s care enjoying long and regular walks and the sheep, turtle and tropical fish all look well. John also left our home in a very clean and tidy state. We would have no hesitation in recommending John and would be delighted to welcome him back at any ... MORE

We are very happy with the way in which John looked after our cat and our home while we were away for six weeks. The regular calls and videos left us very relaxed while we were away. We would have no hesitation in having John again and would highly recommend him.
 
FRANK (Eastleigh England, Mar 2024 - 1 month 2 weeks)
John made the effort to visit us a few weeks before the ‘sit’ which gave us great confidence that he would enjoy taking Rocket for walks and the quiet location of our house. He was very conscientious about all aspects of the ‘sit’ and lived up to our expectations. He clearly had a bond with our dog and was keen to have a handover with us which is always good. Everything was left clean and tidy with nothing out of place! He sent us updates but not too much - jut enough to keep us happy. ... MORE

John recently did a house sit for us and took good care of our very docile Ragdoll cat who doesn’t go outside, two chickens and the indoor plants. All were well looked after and even the chicken that kept escaping from the coop didn’t phase John!

It is my pleasure to provide a review of John as house sitter and carer for our pets whilst we were on a recent holiday. He is a very personable and easygoing individual who took the utmost care in informing himself about the needs of our elderly pets, the general workings of our home, and our safety & emergency plans. We communicated effectively whilst away, and we very much appreciated his very responsible attitude towards his role. We also had lovely feedback from our neighbours who ... MORE

John was brilliant. He is clearly experienced in house-sits as he asked all he right questions and wanted to familiarise himself with the house and dogs. John is an excellent communicator, which is so important when you leave your house and beloved pets in the care of someone you don't know. I was confident that everything would be just fine, which it was.. It was lovely coming home to a clean house and happy dogs.
 
LAUREN (East Preston England, Jul 2023 - 2 weeks 1 night)
This was our first house sitting experience and we had a great experience! Our lively dogs were very well looked after and, although they were obviously pleased to see us return, they were very chilled when we arrived back. All our plants were well cared for too. We would not hesitate to use John again.

John is a lovely man and was an absolute godsend he cared for our cats and house probably better than we would!! John kept us updated via calls and video on what's app. Both us and the cats were very happy with him and would have no hesitation in recommending him - and hope he will return to us for our next vacation.
 
GEORGINA (Bognor Regis England, Jun 2021 - 3 weeks)
This trip was supposed to be 8 weeks but ended up being 3.5 months as I was unable to get back from NZ during the Covid19 lockdown. Fortunately John was able to stay on till I got back which was an absolute godsend. I returned to a clean and tidy house and a healthy contented cat. he even kindly picked me up from Heathrow airport. John was reliable, security conscious, he has excellent communication skills and replied promptly and kept in touch throughout, also sent photos and little ... MORE
