Dog and Property Sitting
This service means that not only do we step in and take over the care of your dog, but the house is occupied and checked daily. We can be there for up to 21 hours per day, for as many days as you want.
There is conclusive evidence that the risk of burglary is massively reduced if the home is occupied when the owners are away. Increasingly, insurers are encouraging home owners to leave their home in the hands of a home sitter.
Property and dog sitting includes the same service for your dog as the Dog Sitting Overnight package but also provides a basic property management service. We will keep an eye on:
- Heating and fuel tank supplies
- Lighting and security lights
- Check stoves and fires
- Monitor any pest problems
- Keep a log of visitors e.g: gardeners, cleaners, tradesmen etc.
- Check plumbing for leaks
- Keep rooms aired
- Get basic supplies in (milk and bread) for your return
How our services work
Following an enquiry by phone or email we arrange a visit. This visit is to get to know your dog and how you interact with it, see the property and for us to get to know each other. If we both agree that we can work together and trust each other, a second meeting is arranged.
This second meeting is for me to gather information about your dog and property care in detail. We would take the dog out for a walk together for me to learn the commands you use and then have a chat over a coffee! The second meeting could take a couple of hours and there is no charge for either of these meetings. If we agree we can go forward at this point a deposit is taken.
