Pennee and Bill were excellent sitters for Guga. They arrived the night before our trip so we could enjoy dinner and getting to know each other. They kept us informed with photos about Guga and his escapades to the beach, on his walks at Dolphin Head or just cuddling with them at home. Our home was immaculate and our plants were all doing well. Thank you Pennee and Bill for your stay with Guga. Hope to see you soon in the future. Cheers 😎😎😎

Lee and Stuart were excellent pet sitters! They loved our dog Brooklyn and she loved them. They kept us updated on her and made sure she was well taken care of. They were very neat and our house was in perfect condition when we came home. I would be happy to have them sit again.

Lori was absolutely amazing. She was so responsive and gave us updates on our furry princess every couple of days. When we returned home, the house was spotless (truthfully better than we left it!). Lori took care of our plants (during a mini heat-wave) and everything looked amazing when we got home. Our princess Artemis was happy, relaxed and content when we got home. We know that she was very well cared for and cuddled by Lori. We would not hesitate for a moment to have Lori sit with us again. Thank you Lori!

Prashant and India were so lovely to work with, they even came to town the night before my trip to make sure the pups would be comfortable with them. Prashant helped with training my younger dog and they gave me some great recommendations. They also took excellent care of my apartment and are the sweetest people. Would love to have them again any time.

Margi won my trust and confidence in her from my first online meeting with her and was true to her word throughout our interaction. She understood how to treat my rather feisty Siamese from the beginning and I never had a moments worry about the cat while she was looking after her. She was undaunted by facing the challenge of the wettest winter on record in Cape Town and struck a good balance between using her own initiative and communicating with me about issues. I can recommend Margi as a pet and house sitter without hesitation.

We couldn’t have asked for better cat sitters for our two kitties. They took great care of our house and our pets, and they were communicative and tidy. We’d have them back any time — and we’d highly recommend them!

Jennifer and her family were amazing. They cared wonderfully for both the house as well as my two cats and big dog. Jennifer was so sweet to update me every day or two to keep me me know how things were going. The house was very clean and felt great when I returned. I would have them back in a heartbeat.

Kent and Kathy were just terrific!! They took care of our home as if it was there own as well as taking care of our fur babies. Their communication was spot on, every time we called they answered right away to assure us that Sweet Pea and Rufus were getting along just fine. I can't believe that Kathy even made home made soup that was waiting for us when we returned home. This was so appreciated after being on the road for as long as we were. We can't say enough about how pleased we were of our house sitters. We would welcome Kathy and Kent anytime for a return sit.

Corrin and her mother took wonderful care of our pets. She arrived right on schedule, kept in touch with us with pictures and left our house spotless with very happy pets. We had the pleasure of meeting them both before we departed on our trip and immediately knew that our pets would be in great hands! We would definitely use them for future sits and highly recommend them!

Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!

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.

We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.

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.

Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐

Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. 

We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-)

They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! 

Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!

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!

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!

Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. 
The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. 
The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so.
Kristine comes with our highest recommendation!
Thank you Kristine!

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.
