We have had Jess come to house and dog sit twice now. The first time for 6 weeks and the second for 3 months and already have booked him again for next year. Jess was more than we expected. He not only looked after our dog and fish but did our garden and we came back to our house as we left it. We were kept up to date most days with photos and videos of our beloved dog who had numerous walks and a lot of fun. Both Jess and Olaf (our dog) became very attached to each other. We were able to enjoy our time away without having to worry about anything. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Jess for house and pet sitting.

To whom it may concern
Jess has house sat for us on two occasions both of 6 weeks duration. Our main concern was our dog Ruby who is very nervous and takes time to adjust to new people especially men. Jess was incredibly patient and caring to her and she absolutely loved him.
In addition our home was in a neat, tidy and clean condition upon our return.
I have no hesitation in recommending Jess.

Reference for Mr Jess Miller July 2021 To Whom it may concern,
Mr Miller has been a very reliable and honest house sitter for me at East Quarry Cottage, Perthshire for the last year. He has maintained the property, keeping the house and garden clean and tidy at all times, including cleaning the house from top to bottom when he arrived.
Throughout the year he has cared for the garden and trimmed a 40ft high hedge, which had grown out of control. He has mowed the lawn regularly.
Mr Miller installed a new log burner into the property. He chain sawed, transported and split wood for the burner.
The property was on the market to be sold and Mr Miller liaised with the estate agents and showed prospective buyers over the property on my behalf. He liaised with neighbours and has been clear and communicative at all times. I can happily recommend him.

‘Jess Miller was employed by me from 2016 to full year). I cannot speak too highly of his diligence and interest in the house and garden and his ever helpful and kind disposition.’
Mrs.H.E.Alexander MBE, FRSA
'Jess came to our rescue in May 2019 when we were let down at the last minute by a Pet Sitter just before a 6 week holiday in Europe. Jess turned up exactly when he said he would and looked after our aging Staffie and our cat. He also cut the grass and kept the house immaculate until we returned. Jess went above and beyond when he also took the dog in to have her nails clipped whilst we were away. No mean feat given her over excitement at being taken out for the day! We would have no hesitation in recommending Jess for house and pet sitting, we came back and were very impressed with what he had done whilst we were away.' Graeme Wood, Cornwall, UK.
'At all times I felt totally confident that our house was in good hands and that I could be sure to be find all in order on my return. I was entirely satisfied with Jess's services and have no hesitation in recommending him to others.' Julia Tweed, Surrey, UK Jul
