About this sitter
Good, clear open communication with the homeowners.
Prefer quiet areas.
Based in Andalucia so no problems with travel within Spain.
Very clean and tidy plus enjoy looking after the garden as well as pets
Why they want to house sit
From Summer 2024 I will be retiring so hoping to do more sits year round.
Now taking bookings for autumn / winter 24-25.
Dog lover. I have (had) 3 dogs here in Spain, Bisto and Luna both half cocker and Nicky a "bitsa" mostly jack russel.
I love being with dogs and cats when sitting the stays are enhanced by the pets company and walks.
Their experience
Have house and pet sat many times over the pàst 10 years.
Now dedicating to it full time.
All types of dog from smaller to very large.
Experienced with off grid properties and pool maintenance.
References available on request (in addition to those on this site) of the testimonials here I have done repeated sits for those owners many times.
What can they bring to the assignment
Experienced in tourism, hospitality and gardening sectors.
Like to keep busy, so day to day cleaning and other duties not a problem.
(Don't mind helping out with holiday lets - welcoming guests)
Gardening a hobby so happy to help with that too.
Leave your place and pets in safe hands.
For me observing the pets normal routine is a priority.
Have my own transport so remoteness not a problem, if accessible by car. (not 4 x 4)
Happy to do a non compromise visit to owners in Andalucia (if possible) before agreeing to a sit.
A great way for both parties to feel more comfortable and to get to know the pets and observe their routines.

Excellent and trustworthy house sitter
Lee looked after out two dogs, a house cat and some garden cats. We were very happy with his house sit. He was conscientious and communicated very well. He's super friendly and easy-going and has looked after the house very well. Highly recommmnded.

Couldn't ask for more!
Lee is a lovely person and the moment he arrived our 4 dogs thought so too! They all greeted him like an old friend. We have an old Jack Russell, a rescue Jackhuahua, an aloof but loveably demanding Afghan Hound, and a recently adopted Afghan Hound who needs lots of reassurance. None of our dogs needs fazed Lee at all and we felt confident and happy to leave their care in his hands. Lee gave us daily updates on how our boys were and they were all pretty chilled out. We returned to a clean and tidy home and 4 happy dogs. We will most definitely be asking Lee to sit for us again in the future!

Very conscientious pet and house sitter
Lee was very enthusiastic about looking after our dogs and cats and was able to visit us before our departure date .He was able to get acquainted with the animals and the surroundings and where to walk the dogs which was most helpful and reassuring. The dogs and cats settled in very well with Lee as did our very timid Podenco , Elsa. Lee was very organised and kept the house and garden very tidy. He kept in contact throughout the time we were away, sending us photos too, which showed how contented and relaxed they were. All in all Lee is very friendly and independent and we would love to have him sit for us again. Lee is a very recommendable pet and house sitter. Thank you very much Lee

House Sit in Montoro, Spain
We are very grateful to have found Lee, from the beginning he made us feel so comfortable and that we was leaving the property/pets in safe hands. He kept in contact throughout the house sit and provided photos. The property, external areas and swimming pool was respected, kept clean and tidy. Both cats were looking happy and healthy upon our return. Lee is trustworthy, reliable, friendly, and genuine. We hope to welcome him back again in the future. Ray & Nikki x

House sit July 2022 - Couldn't ask for better
Lee was a delight. He lives in Spain, only a couple of hours drive from us, which obviously was convenient. However, wherever he lived, we'd have written a positive review about him as he is exceptional. He listens and takes in what you say about your animals (and solar, water, property etc etc), and then does what you have asked. We used Lee for an impromptu break for a week, and he fitted in with all our requests, and a few last minute changes, without complaint or grief. He kept us informed, without bothering us, and we can honestly say, we felt relaxed on holiday feeling our pets and house were well cared for. To top it all, when we returned, the place looked cleaner and tidier than when we left it. My husband even noticed, and he notices nothing to do with cleanliness normally ???? So Lee, thank you again. We will be in contact again soon as you did us, and our beloved pets, proud.

House and cat sitter
Lee was very easy to communicate in a friendly manner. He kept the house clean and watered the garden, and most importantly was good with the cats. Very accomodating about dates and we have already booked him for our next trip

Fabulous house sitter in Andalucia
Lee house sat for us at very short notice but he still made time to come and visit us beforehand to make sure everything worked for both of us. He is extremely trustworthy and personable and took excellent care of our house and cat. He messaged me whilst we were away on more than one occassion to let us know that everything was ok which was lovely. We were so lucky to have found him! I would have no hesitation in recommending Lee and look forward to him coming back and looking after our house and animals next year. Thank you Lee!

What else could you possibly say...?
OK so I could be going on and on about how lovely Tom and Lee are, but let's get to what we really want to know: Two large dogs and one cat - taken care of? Tick Plants and some gardening stuff taken care of? Tick Not being worried at all for six weeks and getting weekly really heartwarming updates on daily life? Tick Feeling completely confident that any situation is being dealt with, at home or anywhere, with me away and 8 hours time difference? Tick T&L very considerate and generous people, easy to get on with, lovely company? Tick House IMMACULATE when I got back...tick tick tick.
