We love travelling, good food and Coronation Street.
Why we want to house sit
We have relocated to Sheffield and have an office in Harland Works. We are currently pet sitting whilst we buy a house. Peter has family in Leeds who we can stay with and commute in, however we love pet sitting in Sheffield as we get to meet some amazing pets, people and spend more time in the city.
We both have very flexible schedules as we both run our own businesses. We are also happy to work from your home or to plan our hours to suit your pets needs. We love going on walks and are keen to explore the Peak District on the weekends. We also have a van so can easily travel across Sheffield to visit you!
Our experience
I have been dog sitting a Boston Terrier called Tegan over the last year. She has been coming to our office regularly and is known as our studio intern. We've loved having her, as she sleeps most of the day! She's can also be quite lively and loves playing with balloons. We're also look after a papillon called Charlie, who we see regularly. He's a vegan dog so we have to feed him a special diet.
Both myself and Peter's family have always had pets, so we are comfortable with looking after small and large dogs. My family have a Jack Russell called Penny who is now short sighted and deaf, so she needs extra care an attention when we look after her. Peter's family has a big labradoodle called Archie who has a bouncy personality and pulls a lot when on the lead, which we're now used too!
We also have experience with small pets, hamster, rabbits, ect. I have always had hamsters, even throughout university. Peter has traded at lots of Pet Shows where we love meeting all the new animals. At the moment we do not have any pets of our own, but hope to get some one day.

I can't thank Louise and Peter enough. They looked after my 2 Labradors very well for 2 weeks while we went away. They sent regular updates and photos of the dogs, and the house was as I left it.

I would have no problem recommending them to anyone, or using them again myself. I felt very happy to leave my dogs and house and reassured by the regular updates . Brilliant sitters.- Organised

Louise and Peter have been fantastic sitters for Maki, to the point where they left and she sat on the wall outside looking at them go! it was a very dramatic moment :)
They were excellent communicators, took care of everything perfectly and left the house cleaner than they found it. Louise also ...Louise and Peter have been fantastic sitters for Maki, to the point where they left and she sat on the wall outside looking at them go! it was a very dramatic moment :)
They were excellent communicators, took care of everything perfectly and left the house cleaner than they found it. Louise also knitted a Maki Doppelgänger, which i love!
I highly recommend Louise and Peter, and am happy they've moved to Sheffield so I can see them more often.- Organised

Peter and Louise have looked after our dog Charlie on and off since we got him. Don't know what we would do without them. Always reliable, friendly and Charlie loves them to bits. They babysit occasionally when we go away or we have other commitments during the day. Highly recommend :)
