Maria is all anyone could ask for while they are away... we have an older cat and she was very attentive to his quirky ways.... she also sent updates every day along with photos. I would highly recommend retaining her for your pet sit :)

If you’re lucky enough to have Erik and Madison want to housesit for you, don’t think about it twice! They’re the most thoughtful, caring, kind, communicative house sitters you could have and all around wonderful human beings. This was their second time looking after our dogs (and now beta fish too!) and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you thank you thank you Madison and Erik! We hope we get to see you again in Seattle or Spain!

Dependable, trustworthy, empathetic, caring.
Tim was an excellent sitter from start to finish. He was kind, organized, and followed through on all home tasks. The house was very clean on my return, and my plants were thriving. I'd love to have him back and anyone would be lucky to have him! Thanks Tim!

Caring, Loving Travel Couple
Caitlin and Lawrence were great! They were able to come over the day before we left and we had dinner together and we were able to get to know them even more and show them everything they needed to know about Clara and our home. They sent us lovely pictures of Clara enjoying her time while we were away. When we got back the house was super clean and they left us a nice plant to start our garden with this summer. We would definitely have them in our home again.

I am so fortunate to have found Alanna to take care of my cat while I went on a nine week trip to Mexico in my van. My cat was a little more complicated to care for because he was diagnosed with IBD just before I left. He thrived under Alanna’s care. He almost gained a full pound while I was gone, which is amazing for a cat with this diagnosis. It’s speak volumes about Alanna as a care provider. She was 100% attentive to all of his needs. She sent me pictures and communicated with me almost daily. I really can’t say enough good about her. She was neat and clean and took such great care of my condo, which is a second home, that she is welcome to come back anytime to stay if she wants to vacation in Seattle. I think my cat misses her. I’m POSITIVE that I miss her. I hope to see her again in the near future!

Michelle has sat for us several times and is always a great option. We would love to have her back. She is easy to make plans with and took terrific care of our dogs.

I am a perfect company for your loved one.
Tatsiana is AMAZING! She cares for my fur babies as though they were her own. And, they have adopted her as their own. I never have a worry when she's with them. She is so responsible and caring that it provides great piece of mind while I'm traveling.

An artistic couple who travel often. Kind, reliable, resourceful and delightful.
Doria and Markus were absolutely exceptional pet sitters in every way! They are both kind, respectful people with excellent communication skills and with so much love in their hearts for our two dogs! Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and our dogs were relaxed and clearly well loved and well cared for. Our newly planted flowers were also well cared for and the instructions we left were clearly read and followed. We feel very grateful to have found such wonderful people to house/pet sit for us and definitely hope they will return! We would give them much more than five stars as they are top notch in every way, including being WONDERFUL human beings who bring great energy and joy to this planet! Thank you Doria and Markus!!!!

Happy, clean, animal loving family!
Sarah and Caleb were great! Easy to communicate with and took excellent care of Banksy. They checked in regularly and left the house clean and tidy upon return. I’d have them come and stay again anytime.

This was our second time having Ciara at our home with Ellie. We had such a great experience we wanted to bring her back. My favorite things about Ciara as a sitter is her quality care of Ellie, daily communication, and how self sufficient she is. She walked our dog almost daily and sent photos updating us on Ellie's activities each day. Ellie had a little bit of a health scare and Ciara stayed right on top of everything + maintained awesome communication throughout. We live on an island and if you have, you know island living isn't always the easiest. Ciara was comfortable with our home's quirks and didn't need hand holding during her stay. Would absolutely have her back in the future.
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!
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
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.
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
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!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
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!
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.
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.
