Caralise And Brian were a joy to have staying at our home. Caralise maintained great communication prior to the sit and both of them came out to visit the property and do a tour before we mutually committed. We immediately sensed their calm, genuine demeanors, and their appreciation and respect for our country property and all the animals. We appreciated receiving updates from them throughout their stay, and their flexibility with us coming back to the property midway through the sit to pick up the older dogs to attend an event with us. Our house was perfectly clean and orderly upon our return. We would be delighted to have Caralise And Brian stay at our house and watch our crew again.

Mark and Terry are experienced house/pet sitters and it shows with their performance. They welcomed the challenge of taking care of my birds without any experience. If you want experienced house sitters who know their duties, this couple fits the bill.

Our experience having Jim and Keith care for our fur babies and our condo was outstanding. We met them the day before we left on our month-long trip and our kitties, Fred and Frank, took to them instantly. We felt right at ease with them, as well, all of which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. The sitters sent us photos and updates on a regular basis, which was most welcome and reassuring. The condo was tidy and in order upon our return and it was obvious that our fur babies had been very well cared for. We highly recommend Jim and Keith and would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat.

Lance is an easy going guy you really wish for to have as a pet/house sitter. He came a few days early to learn the routine for our 10 cats and 3 dogs. 10 Indoor cats give a lot of litterboxes and sometimes little accidents. Lance managed everything perfectly. All pets were relaxed and had a good time with him. Films and pictures were shared regularly to keep us posted. Lance is a very trust worthy guy. We recommend him dearly as a sitter and also see him as a new found friend to our family. Lance thank you so much for taking on this huge responsibility. You nailed it big time😊 Love Jel and Olaf

Yo! Deanne and Mathew were on point! They communicated frequently and effectively. They were totally reliable, kind and generous. Leaving doggie treats for me when I arrived home and ice cream in my freezer 🤤I cannot recommend them highly enough. Don’t hesitate to take them up on an offer to sit for you.

Allegra was the perfect dog and house sitter. She arrived early to ease our transition to the airport, and gave our Jack Russel,Ollie, attention and love right away. Ollie loved all the walks and adventures daily, and having loving company at home. I really appreciated that Allegra sent pictures every day and kept in touch, The house was immaculate when we returned home, and Ollie was safe and sound. He even learned how to drop his toy while I was away. I would definitely use her again if she was available, and would highly recommend her to friends and family.

Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!

Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give  more than 5 stars I certainly would.
     Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned.
I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.

Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!

Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. 
I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.

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. ⭐

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!

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.

If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years.

Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his 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 him through the instructions would work as planned. 

Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was 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 Cung followed those exactly.

Third, Cung makes 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 within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast.

Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. 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. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. 

In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

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!

Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned.  And the house was spotless.  Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them.  Highly recommend :)
