Energetic, Caring & Reliable Aussie Couple
This was a first time for me and Max and I am so happy that we were fortunate enough to have Edward and Anne to look after Max and my home. They exceeded my expectations, and looked after Max so well. He went to the beach daily, plus the dog park and had numerous walks. Edward and Anne were aware that I have had difficulty restraining Max if he sees a bush turkey, whilst we are walking. Their videos clearly show Max on lead and close to bush turkeys, being guided by Edward to remain calm and not attempt to chase them. This is a great help to me, plus the beach adventures and his obvious pleasure at running into the waves has encouraged me to keep this activity up. So life and exercise for Max, and me has extended beyond the dog park. Their videos of the beach trips showed Max also had a hose down at home, and a towelling dry, Max was never keen on a hose down but he doesn't mind now. In addition to all this Max was also exposed to visiting the local shops, and dealing with bikes and scooters , again he reacted well, obviously feeling safe in Edward and Anne's company. I returned home to a very happy Max and a spotless home and garden. We were blessed to have such a wonderful couple, I hope we will be fortunate enough to have Edward and Anne here again. Thank you both, I was able to enjoy my holiday and Max had the best time as well. He was loved and cared for with plenty of pats and cuddles .

'BACK AGAIN' Trustworthy, Mature, Honest and Houseproud with a Love of Life
We knew Keith and Mandy would be great guests right from the start and they exceeded our expectations in every way. They were flexible with our schedule. Both of them are organized and tidy - kept our house clean and cat busy. We had regular proactive updates from them during the sit. I hope they enjoyed their stay in our house and had a great impression of Nuremberg. Wishing them all the best in their trip ahead. If you are looking for responsible and reliable sitters, reach out to them :)

Responsible Animal-, Plant-, & Travel- Lover ready to take great care!
I had the pleasure to have Willo stay in my house for more than 3 months to take care of my 7 cats during monsoon season in Thailand. She handled all the challenges with grace such as uninvited creepy crawlies, lizards and monkeys. A flooded house and a mud filled pool. She kept me well informed all through my whole trip and we had an excellent dialogue on how to solve all the problems that occurred. Her love for my animals is hard to match (even by me, ha ha ha). Because she works online she spent a lot of time in the house with the cats which they of course loved. If you get a chance to have Willo stay with your furry friends, take it!

It makes us so happy to be able to care for pets in their own home.
Five Stars all the way and they are all well-deserved <3 This is the second sit with Rick and Ingrid and I cannot recommend these two enough! They are the Perfect Sitters - they cuddle and love my cats, they send me periodic updates (and great photos!), they are responsible and self-sufficient. I know that if there is a question, they won't hesitate to ask. But only after trying to find the answer first themselves. My only regret is that they live on the other side of the world from me, so getting them over for more frequent sits can be difficult. If you can get Rick and Ingrid in your application pile, just go ahead and confirm the sit. You won't be disappointed!

Responsible and caring petsitters
Brett and Michelle are probably the closest thing you can get to perfect cat sitters. They followed all my instructions (which I had plenty of) to a tee, and the flat was left immaculate. I had a cat who is quite skittish around strangers, and they had her playing and hanging out with them right away - which was incredible. I came home to four happy spoiled cats and a nice vegan breakfast. I could not recommend them highly enough!

Sophie took great care of our dog, Wally, for the 10 days we were away. She also looked after the house and plants wonderfully. Highly recommend Sophie.

Experienced house sitters & world travellers but still Students of Life & Love.
Although my planned trip away was cancelled due to me needing to help with a family emergency, and taking Corey with me, Noel and Jude kept to their schedule and came to Kippen despite not having Corey to care for. I'm sorry that I didn't have the opportunity to meet them as they seem a truly lovely couple. Our communication at all times was great, they're so friendly, they asked great questions when we first met and shared lovely photos of some of their experiences on their trip. While Noel and Jude stayed in my cottage they continued to communicate well and were very helpful and reassuring, I felt that everything was in excellent hands and was happy that they could enjoy the area even though they didn't have Corey for company!
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
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.
Kerry and Megan were wonderful sitters and took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. They were responsive, gave us regular updates, and seemed to really care about Tumba and Cappa. When Tumba was more timid toward the beginning of our trip and not eating her meals fully, Kerry was sure to ask for additional suggestions from us on how to coax her to eat more. Kerry and Megan also left the house just as we'd left it for them. We really appreciated them going the extra mile to ask about additional cleaning products so they could clean our bathrooms. It felt great to come home and just relax without needing to remake the bed. Thanks for everything, Kerry and Megan! We would certainly entrust our home and kitties to you again in the future.
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
