Kartjan and Regina have looked after my cats 3 times now with another sit planned for 2024. They are fabulous catsitters - kind, professional, accommodating, helpful. I highly recommend them - they feel like family at this point and I look forward to seeing them soon. Both my cats are comfortable and at home with them - and I know they give them the kindest and most loving care while I am away.

Asdis and Anton were excellent house sitters, they keep in touch before arriving and looked after all our animals very well. They left everything very clean and tidy. They were very self sufficient. We would definitely welcome them back another time.

Solveig was an absolute pleasure to have around. She clearly loved the girls, was immaculately clean and tidy, very considerate and sent me regular updates and photos which is always a delight when you're away from the fur babies! We had brilliant chats, and I wouldn't hesitate to have her or her daughter back again. She even did some gardening for me which was greatly appreciated.

Unnur & Anna Lisa, well what can I say…. I can’t thank them enough, they were the best sitters you could wish for. They arrived the night before we left to meet and greet them showing them the animal routine and then during our holiday we received regular updates and pictures of the animals. It’s only when you get home and popped out to walk the dogs that the neighbours were all telling me how wonderful Unnur and Anna Lisa were always out with the dogs and the house was immaculate, bathroom cleaned, kitchen cleaned, beds stripped and in the washing machine, gifts left with a thoughtful card left out you then realise how wonderful they were to have in my home. It’s always difficult to decide who to invite to stay at your home and look after your animals but WITHOUT any doubt if Unnur and Anna Lisa apply about their request immediately as they are amazing. Thank you both so much, if my dogs could talk I’m sure they would not have shut up telling me how lovely you’ve been. 🫶🏻

Mel was fantastic! Very personable, dependable, conscientious and trustworthy. Sid (my cat) loved her. She kept me up to date regarding his antics, sending me pictures and videos daily. All very reassuring. I returned home to a very happy cat and a spotless home. I have given Mel a five star review as I couldn’t fault her and would highly recommend her to others. She definitely went above and beyond. I would definitely use her again.

Silla and her son are warm and friendly. Because we had to leave early in the morning, they stayed the previous night at a hotel nearby, which was very useful and helped ease our stress of a smooth handover. When we got home, they had washed the bed linens, which was a nice surprise. And our kitties looked well taken care of. We didn't receive a lot of updates about our kitties while we were away. What was less pleasant was the state of our flat. There were a dozen food stains on our sofa and also some on a desk. On the kitchen counter there was an empty soda can, and there was chewed chewing gum besides the sofa. If Silla and her son treat one's home with more respect, we would be able to recommend them. Unfortunately that was not our experience.

Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! 

I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. 

I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters.  We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm.  In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard.  Not a typical or easy sit.  We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of.

Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for.  The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard.  Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight.

It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend!

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets.
After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc.
We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise.
Thanks again Nia

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.

Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!

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.

Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!

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!

Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
