Donald and Janet looked after all our animals wonderfully, as they did last time. We came back to a clean, tidy house and a warm welcome home. They are

Great sitters as usual. Loved Emma our dog and went the extra mile in all directions. Thoroughly recommend Donald and Janet. You will not be disappointed.

I’ve known Donald for nearly 10 years and would trust him with my life. Donald was a Barking Mad host for many years and looked after a large number of a variety of dogs and his lovely wife and my friend Janet has house-sat on several occasions for a friend and her cat. As a couple they are wonderful company and are effectively pillars of our small community, being involved, willing, sociable and engaging. Janet has involved herself in a number of community organisations and Donald is a past chair of our Community Council and is now Chair of our environmental group, Glenfarg & Duncrievie in Bloom. As I am also involved with this group, I know at first hand how organised, sensible, caring and thoughtful Donald is. He is the perfect person to be Chair! Janet and Donald have found happiness together and I know they look to use their time travelling at home and abroad, something which they both deserve. They are both seasoned travellers and I think they’d be perfect for house and pet sitting.

Why we want to house sit

Janet has wanted to do this for years. The Covid pandemic stopped her pursuing it. Once we got together she introduced the idea to Donald who completely embraced it. And now that we have done a number of sits, we are more enthusiastic than
