No worries, I’ve got this...
Lari has been here several times and she is always great to have here. We never worry when she is here.

Mid-life adventurers/remote workers
Rachelle and Brad are the perfect house/pet sitters! They are warm with us and, more importantly, with our precious dogs. They took this "job" seriously: sending us photos everyday, taking the dogs on walks faithfully and following all our house- and pet-care instructions to the letter. Rachelle and Brad seemed to grow to love our dogs and, after we returned home and they got ready to take off for their next adventure, the dogs wanted to follow them! That's a successful pet-sitting experience. Moshe and Henri (our dogs) give them two paws up! The house was immaculate! Thank you, Rachelle and Brad!

Responsible family with a lot of pet sitting experience & flexible schedules.
Nic and Leanna (and sweet Billy) were the perfect housesitters to have, and going forward we will be using them as the gold standard to live up to for our future sitters! They were very easy to communicate with prior to the sit and it was very apparent from the beginning that they were striving to be quality sitters and were pros at this! They arrived and departed when they said they would. They asked important questions about caring for our dog Benji. I got so many cute photos of Ben and all that they did with him. I have never had a pet sitter that spent so much time with Benji before! It was so nice to know that Ben was happy and cared for while we were out of the country. Plus, they went above and beyond to clean our home and leave it better than they found it! They were an absolute joy to have and I would welcome them back in a heartbeat if our schedules align again. Do yourself a favor and welcome them in as your sitter!!

Librarian Looking For Opportunities to Help Others
Paula was wonderful all the way around! Both of our Labrador Retrievers, Rip & Huck, really liked her and when we came home it was apparent she had taken fantastic care of them. Paula was always responsive - prior to and during the pet/home sit and kept us up to date. When we asked for a couple photos during our get-away, she happily and quickly provided them. We came back to our home, orchard, and garden looking great just as we had left it. Paula is very endearing, trusting, kind, helpful, and responsible. We highly, highly recommend her - you'd be fortunate to have her stay in your home and watch your pets. We would love to have her again - she is always welcome in our home. Thank you, Paula!

Animal-LOVING couple who is ready to take great care of your home and animals!
Alissa and Daniel were responsible, responsive and extremely proficient in their duties whilst at our home. As our listing was very last minute they were ready and happy to follow all instructions regarding the pets and remained in touch while we were away.

Caring Couple Eager for Culture, Climate and Connection
Susan and Mike are the best! They have sat for us numerous times and never fail to impress us more with each visit. With our bougie poodle, who requires fresh water in a glass, homemade food and lots of snuggling, they never hesitate to accommodate his demanding needs, all while sending us hilarious updates on how he's doing. After they've gone, he always seems to be disappointed they've left. They are extremely reliable, flexible and organized. If given the opportunity, you should absolutely have them over for a sit.

I love all animals and want them and you to be happy while you’re away!
Melissa is very dependable and loves my cats and that is very important. She leaves a detailed note about what she has done and while away checks in to let me know how things are going.

Kind traveler & pet whisperer seeks new regions to experience for a relocation
Greg was absolutely magical with my cats. He quickly understood each cat's idiosyncrasies, and he particularly bonded with the shy and nervous Jewel, who, judging by the photos he sent, was very cozy and purr-y with him. Bertie also received many head-rubs and much affection. The cats were indeed beautifully cared for. The house was well-cared for as well, with everything shiningly clean and welcoming for me when I returned. Communication was easy and clear, by text once we had confirmed the sit. I was delighted to have Greg as a sitter, and would happily have him again. I think the cats would be glad to see him too.

Responsible couple, we have experience with dogs, cats and small birds.
Sabrina was delightful. She took great care of our cats and left the house sparkling clean. Even stripped the bed and laundered the sheets and towels. Good people.

Semi-retired nurse living a passionate, purposeful, active lifestyle
Amy went beyond expectations to make the dogs feel comfortable and calm. One of the dogs was pretty nervous and she was very patient & insightful regarding his needs. He is also leash walking much better (not pulling or reacting to other dogs) which I attribute to her. The house was clean. Amy was flexible, kind and loves dogs. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her back.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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!
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!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
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!
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
