Sylvia

This was Sylvia's third housesit with us. We are so fortunate to have found Sylvia. Our cat Nola is so relaxed and contented when she stays and the house is cleaner and tidier than when I left it! Thankyou again, Sylvia.

Sylvia arrived the day before we left and joined us for a meal, She met our shy boy and we were able to go through everything as she was sitting for over 4 weeks. She maintained good communication whilst we were away with photos and short films of her interactions with our cat. He always looked happy and relaxed with her. We returned to a lovely clean and tidy house, sheets washed and dried and back on bed! Our cat seems quite chilled and happy....so all in all we were really happy with ...

This was our first experience of house-sitting and we were a little nervous but after our first video call we were completely reassured. Sylvia's communication before the sit was perfect and when she arrived we instantly felt relaxed and so did our dog! She is clearly a natural with animals and asked all the right questions. She updated us with pictures and videos during our holiday and we returned to a spotless house; she'd even washed and dried the bedding and towels! She bonded with the ...

She bonded with the dog so well he's still missing her :) We would 100% recommend Sylvia as a house sitter.

This is Sylvia’s second sit for us and I can highly recommend her. Our cat, Nola, loves her. Sylvia’s communication is speedy and she is completely reliable and capable. The house looks immaculate. We hope Sylvia will sit for us again.

Sylvia was excellent in all ways. She popped over for a visit prior to the sit and then arrived the night before I left because my flight was super early. She was extremely competent in terms of managing my dogs, one of which can be a little feisty on walks! Sylvia offered to send me updates and photos although I was happy not to receive them. I did check in a couple of times though to confirm a couple of things and Sylvia was very responsive. I would definitely recommend Sylvia to anyone who ... MORESylvia was excellent in all ways.

She is also a lovely lady and easy to get along with :-)

Sylvia kept in contact from first arrangements and during the 3+ week sit sent us regular updates, pictures and videos. The dogs ate well, went on long walks to new places and had loads of cuddles. The cat had an emergency which Sylvia dealt with perfectly. House was clean and tidy on return. I can’t recommend Sylvia enough, you’d be lucky to have her sit for you.

Sylvia was fantastic from the moment we started speaking. She arrived on time and was very easy to get along with - she communicated and bonded with the girls straight away, they were very relaxed in her company. Going away we had the usual thoughts of missing the girls but Sylvia kept in contact with messages and videos of the girls having a wonderful time. When we arrived back due to flight delays we didn’t get to see Sylvia but she stayed at the house until we said we had boarded so the ... MORESylvia was fantastic from the moment we started speaking.

When we arrived back due to flight delays we didn’t get to see Sylvia but she stayed at the house until we said we had boarded so the dogs weren’t left too long. The house was absolutely spotless. Sylvia come highly recommended. She is. Lovely down to earth lady who loved and cares for the girls just as we do. We would have her back to stay anytime. Thank you Sylvia they girls love you 💕x

Perfection, everything you would want in a pet sitter. Thankyou Sylvia.

Sylvia was just fantastic, we really could not have asked for a better sitter. We had been nervous to leave our challenging menagerie as we hadn't been away for a while but we needn't have worried as Sylvia fully understood and cared for all their individual needs so well that they barely noticed we were gone.  We found Sylvia to be a very caring and considerate person going above and beyond taking care of the house, watering front and back gardens and indoor plants in what was a ...

We had been nervous to leave our challenging menagerie as we hadn't been away for a while but we needn't have worried as Sylvia fully understood and cared for all their individual needs so well that they barely noticed we were gone.  We found Sylvia to be a very caring and considerate person going above and beyond taking care of the house, watering front and back gardens and indoor plants in what was a particularly hot week and also thoughtfully stocking up on some supplies for our return. She also sent us reassuring updates and pics so we were able to relax and enjoy our hols knowing our pets and house were in capable hands. We would not hesitate to ask Sylvia to sit again and certainly highly recommend!

I am happy to write a five-star review for Sylvia, who looked after my rabbits Pippy and Flint while I was on holiday. Sylvia was an amazing house sitter and took excellent care of my rabbits. She showed a genuine love for animals and was very attentive to their needs. I was worried about leaving my pets for an extended period, but Sylvia put my mind at ease with regular updates and photos of Pippy and Flint. Would love to have her stay again!

Sylvia is a superstar. There's nothing better than coming home after an intense business trip to a clean home and really happy and well-kept fur babies. Communication with Sylvia was absolutely fantastic before and throughout the sit. She came in an hour before I had to leave for a face to face handover which was great. Joy who always has a reaction when I leave him got over me very quickly this time around and instantly trusted Sylvia. My young girl, Gracie, who is timid immediately came to ...

Joy who always has a reaction when I leave him got over me very quickly this time around and instantly trusted Sylvia. My young girl, Gracie, who is timid immediately came to check Sylvia out and together with Harmony, they changed their usual sleeping spaces to the bedroom where she slept - that alone speaks volumes. All in all, I cannot recommend Sylvia more. Don't hesitate. I'll definitely reach out to her again in the future and hope she'd have availability.
