Great British Homes
Our house sitters will water your plants for you, mow your lawns
and keep you garden tidy, the way you would like it. To ensure we cover all
necessary and specific tasks whilst you are away we compile a lists of
requirements in
discussion with you and provide you with an update on your return.
We would ask that
we are able to use your own tools and equipment to carry out this service. Be
assured that we will look after your equipment. If you prefer, we would be able
to provide our house sitters with the appropriate equipment though this may
incur an additional cost.
Whilst their owners are away, animals are generally happier
staying at home rather than being boarded at kennels or a cattery.
Our house
sitters are also experienced pet sitters; they provide companionship
for your dogs and cats and other pets, providing whatever exercise and feeding
regimes they need. All of our home sitters are pet lovers and will ensure
that your pets will be well looked after during your time away.
Whilst
your pets will surely miss you, they will be happier in their familiar home and more
comfortable with their usual routines. Some of house sitters are also experienced in caring for a broader
range of animals, including horses, donkeys, geese and chickens ...to name just
a few. Your pets and livestock will be free from the stress associated with
leaving their normal habitat, leaving you free to enjoy your holiday in the
knowledge that they are save and happy in their own familiar surroundings.
Our professional and trusted house sitters will maintain the
security of your home whilst you are away, ensuring doors and windows are
locked at night, curtains are drawn and, where fitted, alarms are set. We
also recommend low wattage lights left on in one or two of your rooms during
the hours of darkness.
Our home
sitters are bound by a comprehensive set of rules which means they will never
leave your property unattended for more than 2 hours during the day and not at
all during the hours of darkness. Our home sitters will also handle post and
any parcel deliveries your
request.
Our experienced and reliable home sitters can deal with any
domestic emergency situation in your absence.
Relax and
enjoy your holiday with complete peace of mind in the knowledge that if, during
your absence, any unforeseen household emergency should occur, our
house sitters have the experience to swiftly deal with such events and that
they also have backup and support from professional team members of our Great
British Homes & Gardens Services.
We will,
on your return, update you with a full report if any particular emergency
occurs, or indeed, if you wish, we will contact you whilst on leave.
