Read the reports
Photos and a tick list after every visit, so you can see for yourself.
You'll know what happened, every time
Your report arrives by email a few minutes after the carer leaves. It lists what was done, the time they arrived and left, and it comes with photos of your animals and your plants.
If something's wrong — a leak, a boiler that's packed up, a cat gone off its food — you'll hear from us that day, with pictures, and we'll tell you what we're already doing about it.

Plants
Millie ate the whole bowl tonight and came out for a fuss, which she didn't do on Monday. Everything else is exactly as it should be.
What we look after
Cats, dogs, greenhouses, front doors
Whatever's waiting at home while you're away, there's someone to see to it.
Where we work
Local, and staying that way
We take on an area only when we have carers who actually live in it. That is why the list is short, and why somebody can be at your door the same day rather than the same week.
Check your postcodeHow far in advance should I book?
As early as you can, especially over school holidays and Christmas. We need at least 7 days' notice for any booking, because every visit has to be offered to a carer and accepted before we can promise it.
Can I change or cancel a booking?
Yes. Because you book online you also have 14 days to change your mind, whatever our own policy says. On top of that: cancel 7 or more days before the first visit and you get everything back, 2 to 7 days before and you get half. Inside 2 days we can't refund, because the visits are already on somebody's round and they have turned other work down to hold them. The Cancellation and Refunds Policy has worked examples.
Can I move a visit instead of cancelling it?
Yes, and there's no charge if we can staff the new time. Ask as early as you can. We can't promise the same carer for a moved visit, though we try.
How many visits a day do I need?
One a day suits most houses and most cats. A dog on its own needs two or more. If what you have picked looks like too little for the animals you have told us about, we will say so before you pay rather than after.
Can I have different times on different days?
Yes. Pick the days you want us, then set the time of day for each one — morning on Monday and evening on Wednesday is a perfectly normal booking. You only pay for the visits you actually choose.
