We can't say enough great things about Daniel and Lorena as pet sitters. They first applied for a pet sit with us, and we were so impressed that we invited them back for a second sit. There will definitely be more to follow because of how exceptional they are. For the initial sit, we had a detailed video call where they asked thoughtful questions and shared their experiences. They came across as knowledgeable, self-sufficient pet sitters with a genuine love for animals, making them an easy choice. During both sits, they arrived the night before to ensure our dogs, Becky and Ashie, had seamless attention and comfort when we left. They quickly adapted to and maintained the girls' routines, making feeding and exercise a breeze. They kept us regularly updated with photos and videos of Becky and Ashie enjoying their walks, playing in the garden, and having fun around the pool. We cannot recommend Daniel and Lorena enough. They kept our house spotless and even cleaned before we returned, which was a wonderful welcome after long travels. Their mobility, thanks to their own car, made it easy for them to get around as needed. We will definitely have them back for another sit soon.

Philippa and Roberto lived up to all their reviews. The handover was easy, even though its a large house and there is lots to explain! Philippa very kindly took me to the airport so we didn’t have to have 2 cars there which saved us a small fortune. They were very good with our dogs and Amba and Zulu took to them straight away. Whilst we were away, Roberto was quick to spot that Amba had a fever and swiftly took her to our vet where she was diagnosed a severe infection. If they hadn’t moved so fast the results could have been so much worse. His veterinary experience was such a bonus and it enabled us to feel confident in the knowledge that all our animals were being well looked after whilst we were on the other side of the world. We knew that Amba especially, was in good hands. Philippa always kept us up to date with daily photos, videos and of course importantly how Amba was progressing on her antibiotics. Roberto obviously enjoyed the Garden as he did much more than just keep things tidy, he even went as far as digging out the nettle roots in the vegetable garden. Which was definitely above and beyond the call of duty. On our return we found all the dog blankets washed and changed, (which is no small feat) house clean and tidy, dogs and chickens happy and chicken coop cleaned out too. AND I CANT BELIEVE IT BUT THEY EMPTIED THE DOG POO BIN!!! For that they get a gold medal! Philippa made us a lovely supper upon our return of Tart Tatin, watermelon, feta and cucumber salad with Roberto’s home made Spanish tortilla. We thoroughly enjoyed their company and they looked after our home as if it was their own. What more can you ask for! Muchas gracias Roberto y Philippa hasta la proxima.

Everything went more than well with Ceci and Dani. They took such an amazing care of Choco, took him to the nature and provided everything that he needed. Choco can be a handful but Ceci and Dani really understood him and took the time to get to know him. I would gladly have Ceci and Dani to take care of him anytime in the future and hope our paths will cross again. I can warmly recommend them to other home owners!

I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the second time to Eva and Alex for staying at my house and for the exceptional care and attention both provided to my beloved two cats during my absence. Their kindness and responsibility truly warmed my heart. Knowing that Eva&Alex took on the responsibility of my house and looking after my two cherished cats for a second time while I was away, brought me an immense sense of relief. The dedication and attentiveness in ensuring their well-being did not go unnoticed. From feeding them with their favorite treats to ensuring they had a cozy and comforting environment, their commitment was evident in every detail. All the conscientiousness and care alleviated any worries I had. Eva and Alex have a willingness to go above and beyond, their care speaks volumes about their character and compassion. At my house things runned smoothly as well, as they had stayed for a long period of time and I am genuinely thankful for their efforts.

We had a great experience having Iratxe and her daughter stay with us and care for our babies (2 dogs, 1 cat). The house was very clean and the animals seemed very well cared for. We even had to have workers at our house while we were away due to some leaking from recent storms and they coordinated with us to let the workers continue the project on our house. We are very appreciative and would have them back again.

Mar came with her sister and friend to take care of our pets. And although they didn’t have much experience with horses they managed well. Our New Foundlander got a kilo more on her waist. I think she was very spoiled by Mar. I can recommend them for pet sitting.

Kate and Harry were amazing! Daily pictures and feedback about how our fur babies were. They are lovely people and we feel so fortunate to have had them in charge of the terrible trio while we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone and hope that if they’re ever available to us again that they would return. A1 pet sitters and the cats are visibly missing them this morning! Cannot praise them enough!

Barbara is a wonderful sitter. It is always a good indication when the cats are friendly and happy around the sitter, and they love Barbara. She is very good at keeping in touch, and we were able to have a worry free weekend whilst she was here looking after our 4 cats. Lady Black, Loki, Rolo, and Baby Bobbie all say, "Thank you* We all say a big thank you 😊

Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!

Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer.  
Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! 
Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily.  The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming.  
Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. 
Thanks Kendra!!

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!

Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking  and  choose Sharon and Milton.  They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people.  I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even  followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.

Wow!  Just wow!  We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home.  We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple.  They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions.  Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties.  There was no sign of anxiety in Tika!  Yea!!!  Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade!  They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts!  What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are!  We hope to have them back again soon.

Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean  home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.

Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!

Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!

Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!

Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty.  Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption.  He was prompt, easy to get a hold of,  responsible, and overall, a great sitter.  I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
