Looking for house/pet sitting opportunities for 2024 and beyond.
Having Sheryl and David house and pet sit was like having our own family stay at our home. They were able to arrive the night before we left so we can meet in person and show the house and the kitties. They stayed at a hotel that night and arrived at our home shortly after we left for our trip. They kept in touch with us with photos and updates which was very reassuring. They made sure our flight was on time before leaving. When we got home everything was super clean and tidy. Sheryl left us homemade food fro dinner and they had cleaned our refrigerator top to bottom which was so nice to not come to expired rotten food. Kitties were happy and healthy and our mail was neatly sorted. Any sheets or towels they used they washed and put back. It was a dream. I would ask them to pet/house sit again if timing worked.

Retired with experience as pet owners, home owners and landlords. Reliable.
Carol and Rob were amazing! I wish there was a way to leave a 10 stars review. It was our first time leaving Murphy and we were very anxious about it. They took very good care of him, probably better than we do to be honest. He got multiple walks per day and went running 5K with Rob every other day. The house was very clean at our return as well. They created a strong bond with Murphy which could be seen in the daily pictures they sent us. We would definitely have them housesitting for us again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a housesitter

A young couple with the love of adventure and travel!
Megan and Brett were super sitters - again! They sat for us last May, and we were so pleased that we asked them back again. This time, we had a little scare with Hans and Megan and Brett handled it perfectly. Thankfully Hans was just fine, but it was a little unsettling going through the episode. We know that Megan and Brett are completely trustworthy and we have complete confidence in how they care for our little buddies.

Friendly, quiet and nurturing middle-aged woman.
I recently had the pleasure of hiring Charmaine as my house and pet sitter, and I couldn’t be more pleased with her services. From the moment we first communicated, Charmaine was professional, friendly, and attentive to all my needs and concerns. Throughout her stay, she provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which put my mind at ease knowing my home and beloved cats were in good hands. Howard and Stella warmed up to Charmaine almost immediately – a testament to her gentle and caring nature. Charmaine also took excellent care of my home, leaving everything spotless and well-maintained. It was clear that she went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly in my absence. I highly recommend Charmaine to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and responsible house and pet sitter. She exceeded my expectations in every way and I will certainly be requesting her services again in the future.

10 stars! Paul was an amazing pet and house sitter for my two large breed dogs. He sent photos and updates each day and there was no doubt my babies were cared for and loved to the max. He understood their needs and personalities very well. He left my place tidy and very clean. I’d have Paul back in a heart beat. Thanks so much Paul!

Retired educators and animal lovers who enjoy exploring the world together!
Dwight was incredible from start to finish! He has so much compassion for animals and instantly connected with our crew at the first visit. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our dogs & cat in his care for the week. He went above & beyond in all care expectations, sent awesome updates, took my dogs on the most amazing walks and gave my kitty all the love she could ask for. My crew was absolutely spoiled and I would invite him back in a heartbeat. He left the house immaculate and even shovelled snow for us before we got home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you Dwight!!

Wow- Leslie is a cat whisperer! Our cat is pretty independent and freewheeling and often doesn’t come home for hours at a time. But she fell head over tail for Leslie and came home on a regular basis for cuddles. She was happy and content and our home was sparkling clean when we came home. We highly recommend Leslie- she was a great communicator, super friendly and fantastic with our cat.
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
