Janel
Marbella, Costa Rica
I love animals and I'm sure I'll take care of them and pamper them as you do
Janel is an animal lover and has a fun-loving enthusiastic personality. She has great communication skills and was able to provide constructive criticism so we can make future sits easier. Janel sent pictures of our pets while we were gone and made sure we knew how the pets were doing while we were away. She took fantastic care of our goats, guinea pigs, birds and our dog. She left the house in perfect condition making our return home a pleasure! Our dog Rocket was calm and relaxed, excited to see us but not anxious . All the pets were well cared for and again Janel has fantastic communication skills. She left before we returned and made sure the animals were cared for before she left. She also checked in to be sure we had returned. We would highly recommend Janel for any housesitting position she would like to do. She is capable, caring and professional!
Belinda
Marbella, Costa Rica
Experienced Pet-Loving Couple Ready to Care for Your Furry Friends
It has been a delight arranging things with Belinda and Johnathan. Very clear communication, kept me updated about Batley and was responsive when there was something to arrange. Batley is an older boy but young at heart and he seems to have had a great time. They were very considerate and caring for him. Would definitely recommend Belinda and Johnathan to take care of any pets.

Could not have asked for better! Even replenished my Guinea pigs lettuce supply … which is a quick way to my heart. Minimally disruptive. 5/5
Elio
Marbella, Costa Rica
I'll care for your pets, keep your home clean, and give you peace of mind.
He is without a doubt the most professional and loving human being I've met. We cannot thank him enough for all he did for our pets. Layla and Bruno were simply in an incredible state. He kept us updated with everything they did. We were able to fully enjoy our Honeymoon, knowing that our babies would be safe and happy. As a side note, Layla finally got potty trained completely, meaning that she really is now going outside of the apartment, something only Elio managed to do. As for the house, it was impecable. I would recommend him always and if you need any additional details and all, please just let me know. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Cherish
Marbella, Costa Rica
Peace of Mind While You Travel
Cherish was coming back to the USA after spending time in Costa Rica. This meant that she had her own settling in issues to deal with, such as getting a car and finding a job. While this didn't affect her care of our cat Shinko, we could tell her focus was often elsewhere. Other than a few honest mistakes that we can attribute to understanding things around the home (though they were documented), our only real issue is that she left the kitchen in a state of disarray, and we had to spend a few hours after 2 days of driving back to clean it up. We were supposed to have a housekeeper come that day, but she ended up being sick, and so that factored into the situation, though it should not have been a factor. Overall, Cherish has a calming personality around our cat and took good care of our home and let us know if she was having a guest(s) over ahead of time. If not for the situation when we returned and a few minor inconveniences, it would have been 5 stars.
Magui
Marbella, Costa Rica
Pura Vida Argentina looking to do what she likes most: traveling and enjoy pets
This was our first time on the app, it left some things to be desired. The cats were fine and the apt was clean when we arrived, she communicated her travel plans well and in advance, but there were several things that left us a bit uneasy. The Welcome guide and oral instructions were not followed on several occasions, leading to a potentially risky situation both for the safety of the apartment as well as that of the pets (leaving the garden door open while no-one’s home in full holiday season; leaving the window open throughout the whole stay, even if it was clearly indicated to close it when no-one is at home). We would have appreciated a more proactive communication about the wellbeing of the pets while we were away (not telling us right away one of the cats was missing for half a day, in the beginning had to insist to get pictures). Also the cat litter box was not properly cleaned, leading to urine buildup inside the box. There were several things moved or changed inside the apartment, that left us confused, the instructions for the dishwasher were not followed, leading to damaging some of the cutlery, the freezer was not properly closed since days. And communication in general could be much improved (the night before the sit Magui just assumed we would host her, even if that was not agreed upon beforehand - we did invite her to stay and join us for dinner too, but it felt like a demand, not a request; upon arrival pointing to the open door she abruptly ended communication with us). We believed this site to be a two way street, but it honestly did feel like providing a hotel for someone.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Amanda
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.

. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
Joel and Esme
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Tracie
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.
Andrew
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Brandon & Travis
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.
Tiffany
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!

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!
Paola
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.
Deb
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
