Our coverage area

Over the last few months we have had endless calls asking if we will take on sits in Southern England so I thought it might be beneficial to clarify where we cover and why!
Pet and Property Sitters are based in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. We pride ourselves on being the Northern based company offering a local service from local people. Our sitters are not simply recruited online or at interview days; we are close enough to be able to travel to meet them in person in their own homes. Because we operate in an area local to us we are also personally in reasonable traveling distance to all our clients and will not hesitate in jumping in the car and being there if there is a problem. Despite the fact our sitters are all extremely capable accidents/problems can always happen and our clients have the extra peace of mind of knowing that they will receive nothing less than a highly personal service. If we were to expand into the South we would loose this.
Our local policy means that currently we cover from Derbyshire/Cheshire/Lincoln upwards! Our most Northern sitters are based in the North East of England although many are willing to travel into Scotland. We also pop into Wales on occasion! You can find a slightly more detailed list at the bottom of our homepage.
If you are still unsure if we cover your area please do not hesitate to get in touch. Many of our sitters happily travel a little further on an occasional basis but as we also try to keep travel costs as reasonable as possible we do try to be sensible and ensure that you have someone from a workable traveling distance. it is also important to consider logistics of getting someone to you in the snow from the opposite side of the country; not always the best idea!
