Maid For Pets

 

Pet and Home Sitters Covering: Oxfordshire, Worcestershire, Hampshire, Warwickshire, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire & London

For 23 years Maid for Pets has been offering a reliable ‘live in’ service to care for pets in their home environment while their owners are away.

Our main areas are Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Wiltshire, but anywhere can be catered for. In fact recommendation is constantly sending us further afield.



Some pets become stressed and unhappy if they are put in kennels or home-boarded which can also be costly for more than one pet. Our clients use our service over and over again because they know they will come home to happy pets. Maid for Pets offers a service tailor-made to suit each client’s individual requirement, the main responsibilities being the care of your animals and the security of your property while you are away. Most clients have dogs and cats but others have hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, tortoises, horses and ponies, alpacas, donkeys, pigs, poultry, ducks, domestic birds and all sorts. We have sitters experienced in looking after all these creatures.



Our sitters are mature, responsible animal lovers who have been carefully selected for their honesty, integrity and conscientiousness. Professional references have been taken up and their backgrounds investigated.

The sitter will look after the domestic animals, water the plants, take messages, forward mail (if required), and keep their area in your house clean and tidy. They are not permitted to leave the premises for more than three hours day or night and typically will only absent for shorter periods to shop for provisions.  We keep in constant touch with our sitters while they are working and we are able to assist should an emergency occur.

Sitters provide their own food.  Maid for Pets is covered by Public Liability Insurance.
