Frequently Asked Questions?

No, you won't need to register prior to booking a sitting service with us. All you need to do is complete the booking form, or make an enquiry by filling out our contact form, or alternatively, you can send us an email.
Once we confirm your booking, we will then register you. We offer a convenient and combined registration and key collection service for all our pet sitting appointments. While this service incurs a nominal fee of £15*, it ensures a seamless experience for both you and your pet.
*We waiver this charge for repeat customers.
Our combined registration and key collection service includes:
Secure key retrieval: Our experienced team ensures the safe retrieval of your keys. We kindly request a spare set of unused keys, which will be checked during our visit. This precautionary measure allows us to avoid any last minute call outs to a locksmith during your absence (this is time consuming and costly!)
Professional handling: Your keys are handled with the utmost care and professionalism throughout the entire process. They will be covered under our insurance and are kept in a secure safe, with no name tag in sight.
Detailed Instructions: We carefully note specific instructions regarding your pet's care, emergency procedures and your household's management and security.
