Good Value for Our Homeowner Clients

We Keep It Simple

We believe in transparent, straightforward pricing. Our goal is to provide great value and peace of mind for every homeowner who entrusts their property and pets to us.

Basic Daily Rates

  • Standard Rate: £60 per day
    Includes the sitter’s daily allowance, indoor plant watering, and house sitting services.

  • Short Assignments (Three Days or Less): £70 per day

  • Long-Term Stays (30 days or more): £50 per day
    No travel costs apply.

Note:
If your sitter arrives before 10:00 on the start date, or you return after 15:00 on the end date, please allow for an extra day’s charge. This covers travel time and ensures sitters avoid travelling in the dark during winter. The additional daily rate only applies if the extended time exceeds one hour.
