FAQ - The Stockport Pet Sitter

Pet Care

Being based in Romiley means I can cover most of Stockport including Marple, Marple Bridge, Mellor, Bredbury, Woodely, Hyde, Hazel Grove, Offerton and more.

How long do visits last?

I spend a proper visit with your loved ones, there is no ‘dash in and dash out’ as I understand it’s important for your pets to feel loved whilst you’re away on your holidays. Typically we will spend 15-20 minutes with your pet.

Can you provide references?

Yes, head straight to my Google Business reviews page by clicking this link.

What happens if my pet has a medical emergency while under your care?

We will take them straight to your nominated vet or if out of hours we’ll take them straight to the 24 hour emergency vets: Woodcroft Veterinary Hospital.

My cat requires medication for a health condition. Can this be administered?

Yes we are experienced in providing basic medication. We would need detailed instructions on how the medication is to be administered. We are happy to discuss any requirements your cat may have and generally most needs can be met.

What happens if I’m delayed returning home from my holiday, will you continue to visit my cats?

We consider your cats our responsibility until we have had confirmation you are home and unless we hear from you we will continue to visit. Therefore we would ask that you call or send us a text or email to let us know you have returned safely from your trip.

Do you provide this service for animals other than cats?

Yes, our pet sitting service is suitable for all types of small animals.

Home Care

Would it be possible for someone to water my plants while I’m away?

Absolutely. We are very happy to carry out basic plant watering.

Can you help with home security?

Yes we can open/ close curtains and turn lights on/ off to make your home look lived in. During the winter we can turn your heating on and off to ensure your pipes don’t freeze.

Can you put our bins out?

Yes that’s no problem at all. Just let us know which bins and what days and we’ll do it the night before.

Making a booking

How do I make a booking?

We get very busy during the summer and winter holiday periods. Please us our contact page to enquire about dates. WhatsApp is quickest or if this doesn’t not suit you can use email, phone or Facebook.

Provide us with your name, post code, type of pet, number of pets, how many visits per day and the dates you’ll be away.
