About Deri & John

We're a professional couple in our 40’s who love the companionship of furry friends and traveling.

We like being active and love a long walk exploring new places, especially the parks and canals around London.

I work from home mostly and John works in the city.

Why we want to house sit

House-sitting allows us to feel like we're on holiday even if we’re in our own city because we get to discover so many new areas. At the same time we get to enjoy the companionship of some adorable pets.

We do have our own very small flat in West London which is currently rented out.
It's not really suitable as a pet home as it's near a very busy road with no private garden.

We hope to move out a little further eventually so that we can have pets of our own.

Our experience

We've owned our home in Ealing for 8 years and have taken great care in looking after it and lovingly renovating it.

We would absolutely respect and care for your home as if it were our own.

We have both had dogs as pets/companions over the years. A lovely spaniel called Cindy, a playful English bull terrier, Ben. A lovable staffordshire terrier, Gabby and a fluffy sweet affection adopted girl called Zoya.

We frequently look after John's mom's cat, Freya. She has lots of character and rules the house and loves (demands) attention and keeps us amused. Their 2 previous cats lived long happy lives, 20 & 21 years each.

We're also fortunate to have family and friends with lots of adorable pets who we often pet sit for, especially my brother's 2 Boxers. We love surrounding ourselves with animals whenever we can.

We understand pets are individual characters and part of the family and we will give them all the care, affection and attention they need.

    Deri and John Housesat for us for 3 weeks over Christmas and New Year and looked after our home and dogs beautifully. We came home to 3 happy dogs and a lovely clean house - what better way to end a holiday. This was our first experience of Trusted Housesitters and based on this experience, we will definitely use it again and would love John and Deri to look after our dogs again!

    We met Deri briefly the day before we left and introduced her to our brood. She was extremely calm and clearly adored dogs. We have a high maintenance Beagle, a stroppy English Bull Terrier and a very sweet Schnauzer. I think Molly (schnauzer) was very sad when they left as she clearly got lots of cuddles, Darcy (Beagle) made new friends with Deri and John's friends dog and clearly had a lovely time with loads of walks.

    Deri kept in regular (but not intrusive) contact with us during the holiday to let us know how they and the dogs were getting on and, when Molly needed to be taken to the vets, she phoned first to talk through the options and then kept us informed of the outcome. Smudge also had to make a visit to the vets and none of this or administering medicine was any trouble. I knew that the dogs were in very caring and capable hands.

    It was lovely to go away and not worry about the dogs and our home.

    Thank you Deri and John for being amazing and I hope you get to look after the dogs again.

    We could not have asked for a better doggy sitter for our girls! They received a lot of love and care from Deri who looked after them so well. One of our little ones is really weary of strangers and Deri managed to have her sleep in the bed with her! Another one became ill while we were away and Deri took her to the vet, hand fed her and got her back on her feet.
    We received lots of photos and updates from Deri while we were away.
    I must say that I hate leaving my dogs behind especially since they are all rescue and need a lot of loving care but with Deri I felt that they definitely found a very caring "mum" and they absolutely loved her.
    We hope that when we have to go away next year Deri will be available to look after them again!

    We were so lucky to have found Deri and John to look after Skye while we were away for a whole month. Deri came over before we left to go over everything at the flat and Skye's routine, she was super organised and noted down everything we discussed. While we were away they were both brilliant at keeping us informed of everything and even did FaceTime for our 3 year old who was missing Skye terribly. Skye got a bit ill during their time here and Deri was quick to let us know what was happening and recommend taking Skye to the vet (thanks to her care Skye made a speedy recovery). We came home to a clean and tidy flat (Deri & John even left us some food so that we didn't have to run out to get some after arrived!) and a very happy dog who clearly was missing them (she was happy to see us but then was immediately looking for her new friends). At no moment during our time away, were we concerned about Skye's wellbeing. We felt super comfortable knowing that she was being well looked after, the updates and communication were key for us to feel at ease. We already want to book Deri and John to look after Skye for our next trip! We wholeheartedly recommend Deri and John to look after your house and pet.

    That's such a lovely review, thank you so much.
    We would 1 000 000% do it again!

    Skye has truly stolen my heart, you don't get any more adorable than her.

    We felt so at ease with yourselves and in your home, thank you for making us feel so welcome and comfortable.
