About Colin & ellen & Ellen

Myself and my wife love the outdoors! We love nothing more than walking and spending time outside. I love gardening and fishing and my wife, Ellen, loves swimming. She is also a semi-professional singer and teaches French and Spanish to children and adults alike.

Why we want to house sit

Myself and my wife love nothing better than travelling and having new adventures to look forward to. We have a lovely home of our own here in Scotland and take particular care in looking after other people's homes. While we don't have our own pet at the moment, we have both had pets in our families and now regularly cat sit for friends. Combining housesitting with looking after pets would be a delight and you can rest assured your pet would be well looked after in your absence.

Our experience

We have housesat on many occasions for friends and family as well as looked after their pets. We love animals so having them to look after is an added bonus to us.

    I couldn’t be happier with the way Colin took care of Molly and the house. He arrived prior to the sit to meet Molly and do a walk-thru of the house. It was obvious that he was extremely familiar with all the details in the Welcome Packet. He sent updates and pictures while I was away so I never had to wonder how my pup was doing. I arrived home to an extremely tidy/clean house and a very happy dog. He was so great with Molly! I would absolutely invite Colin to come back and sit again.

    Response from Colin & ellen & Ellen

    Anne was a great host, very accommodating and her welcome pack was spot on. I was over the moon to get this house sit in Florida in January and Anne made it an easy with her great comms. Wee Molly was easy to pet sit as she was no trouble at any time and I got quite attached to her and her ways.
    Anne offered me the full use of all her fab facilities inc Pool, Hot tub, PC, Wifi, Hulu, Netfix ect and contents of her larder. Though I didn't use most it was nice to know I could. I had a great housesit and Anne was a fab host. Most of all wee Molly was a lovely pup. I'd be delighted to be considered again in the future. Thanks Anne

    Just back from trip away. Colin & Ellen have been our lovely house & dog sitters. We can’t recommend them highly enough. We were kept up to date on how our dogs were getting on while we were way. Our house was immaculate on return & our dogs were happy & contented. They had been cared for & loved by Colin & Ellen as if they were their own.

    Ellen & Colin did a fantastic job looking after my two pooches Buster & Berrie. They sent regular updates on how they were both getting on, and it was obvious from the photos they sent that my dogs were happy & relaxed in their company. House was immaculate when we got back too. Great sitters and wouldn't hesitate to recommend and request them again in future! Gill
