Providing Pet Sitting in the Monbahus, France
Actively retired, like helping people and pets. Love travel and new interests.
Jeff and Norma were so great from start to finish. They kept us informed of their arrival plans and kept the house immaculately. In fact, we arrived back to freshly baked cupcakes (which my boys tell me are AMAZING - I am yet to cave in to temptation!) and freshly laundered and folded sheets. They kept us informed of everything and sent us regular updates and pictures of our dog. He looked so happy and has definitely made some friends by the time we returned. In fact, I think he has been pining for them since!! Thank yiu

Mature, responsible, active couple. Delighted to look after your home and pets.
Crème de la crème! Hands-down John and Susan were masterful caring for Karma our 8 year old Airedale who has quite the personality. They came a day early to review procedures and get acquainted with the house. They were exceptionally thorough, asked a lot of questions to gain clarify and to ensure expectations were met. And they were, in fact, they exceeded expectations! They managed Karma as if they were an extension of me. They sat with her in the middle of the night for hours during a thunderstorm. They cleaned and bathed her after she rolled in poop. They played relentless search games with her and took her for long walks daily. She looked like a happy girl in all the pictures. When we arrived back home, the house and gardens were immaculate. The plants were thriving quite well. John and Susan are amazing individuals all around They are fun to converse with, comfortable and easy to get along with, interested and interesting people. I highly recommend them for any kind of a sit with or without pets. I’ve already asked them to come back if they find themselves needing a place to stay, they’re always welcome!

Early retired couple love all kind of pets.
It is always difficult to not only choose a sitter but knowing that you have made the right choice. We can honestly say that we made the right choice when choosing Monika and Andre. Our communication both before and during the sit was just right. We knew exactly when they were arriving and immediately felt like old friends. Eddie took to them straight away. We had agreed that they could leave earlier in the day of our return due to their very long journey home, the house was immaculately clean and all of the bedding washed which was a great help and very much appreciated. We would have no hesitation in recommending Monika and Andre as pet/house sitters and would gladly welcome them back any time.

Cat and dog lover, trustworthy and responsible
We loved having Muriel looking after our cat for 2 weeks! She went above and beyond to provide the perfect house sit for us. Regular updates, great communication, and most importantly, Coco was happy and well looked after the whole time. We came back to a clean flat and felt we could truly relax from the time of confirmation of the sit to her handing back the keys. Highly recommend!

Experienced, positive attitude, reliable and organised sitter
I highly recommend Adriana! Our cat wasn't in a huff at all when we get back and we had a message or a photo every day to see it sleeping with her...So really good! The turtle, the garden and the swimming pool are also very well. The house is really, really tidy and they let us some food for this morning (we came back during the night). She even wash the terrasse and some windows in the kitchen! Before leaving, we share a dinner and it was a really nice evening. So do not hesitate to welcome Adriana and Richard in your house! Thank you Adriana!

Solo, fully vaccinated and non-smoking retiree - experienced pet owner.
Jane is amazing! She was great with my shy Persian cat (when I got home he was calm and happy) and kept me updated with photos and texts. She also cleaned the apartment for me before I got home, something that was very welcome. I would highly recommend her as a cat sitter. She's warm and kind and definitely good with animals.

Amazing pet sitters! They communicated frequently and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Our cat seemed immediately comfortable with them and thought they were fantastic play mates. We also returned to a spotless house that had been beautifully cared for. Really recommend these two.

Reliable, responsible, non-smoking, animal-loving Argentinian & French couple
Cecilia and Eric were wonderful housesitters. Ollie became attached to them very quickly, and I could tell he was being well looked after. He enjoyed his long walks, runs with Eric and evening cuddles on the sofa. Communication was excellent, I was sent lots of photo and video updates and the house was left clean and tidy. They kept my many vegetable beds and trees well watered and I even arrived back to delicious home made Argentinian empanadas! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Cecilia and Eric. Thanks, and enjoy the rest of your Portugal adventure this summer.
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!
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
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!
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
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!
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!
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
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!
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!
