Active Mature Woman, Exceptionally Trustworthy and Conscientious
Elizabeth kept us regularly updated on activities with the dogs, including videos and pictures. In general she was excellent and proactive with all of her communication. We came home to a very clean and tidy house, but more importantly two very content and relaxed dogs! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anybody looking for a reliable sitter.

Professional, caring, mature Couple
Charli and Jeff were amazing pet/house sitters. My Pepper was happy and well taken care of. I couldn’t ask for better people to stay in my home. They were responsible and considerate of my time and house. I found everything super clean and tidy. And to boot, they can be my friends. They are super friendly and nice. I would have Charli and Jeff in my home in a heartbeat. Thank you so much guys. You made my first experience with House-sitters a pleasure. Hope to have you guys back again. Thanks a million!! Gladys

Mark & Deb
What do you say about the repeat house sitters who are already perfect? We were lucky enough to secure Mark and Deb for a 2 month stay. They have sat for us multiple times before, so there was no second guessing (and a little yip of excitement from me and our kitty) when their offer to sit came through. Mark and Deb are great at communicating, very reliable, and fantastic at pet care as seen by multiple pictures showing Ricky being played with and sitting in their laps (we were a little jealous) while we were away. I think Mark and Deb are true cat lovers. A 2 month sit means real life living, not just a few days or a week. I mean they had to eat and shower, right? We came home to a house that was so neat and clean we couldn't tell they were there except for the notes they left behind. They reached out with questions or concerns, let us know when packages arrived, took out the garbage, did all the asks like plant watering and filling bird feeders outside, and took great care of our little Ricky. If you're lucky enough to get them, go for it. Mark and Deb are always welcome at our house.

Hi! We're an active, mature, experienced couple. And we're nice too.
Michelle and Rob were wonderful, beyond words. We totally enjoyed spending some time with them before the 'sit'. They were relaxed, vibrant, grounded, conscientious and very responsible human beings. They were attentive to details and left the house perhaps the CLEANEST it has ever been (including when we are here). Their communication was great and the cats were very well cared for. We trusted them completely and we would not hesitate (and will reach out) to have them come again.

Mother & daughter seeking memories with furry friends and people in spring 2024
What can we say about this lovely family?! We had the pleasure of having Sarah, Xavier and their adult daughter Caroline take care of our 3 doxies, and home for 2 weeks while we were in Italy. We fell in love with them from our first zoom meet to the sad goodbye when we returned. We came home to happy tail wagging pups and a spic and span home. Sarah sent us updates with photos that helped to make our trip fun and worry free. We can not recommend this wonderful trio enough. You may not get lucky enough to get the 3 of them together, but even as a pair, or single sitter you can't go wrong! Thank you again Sarah, Xavier and Caroline, we can't wait to have you back!

Experienced international traveler, home owner and animal lover.
Paul was an amazing sitter for our cat, Coco. Coco is particular and Paul handled her beautifully. We came back to a spotless home and Coco was a well-cared for cat. We highly recommend Paul.

Respectful animal, plant, flower, and nature lover!!
This is your dog sitter. Kari just left yesterday and when we walked in to an immaculate clean house and very satisfied dogs, I knew we picked the right sitter. She was in touch daily with details and sending pictures. So glad she made the trip to California as we couldn't have picked anyone better. Thank you Kari for giving us a great vacation knowing our fur babies were well taken care of. So much love and appreciation for taking care of our house and dogs!

Reliable, Warm, Single Woman looking to care for your home and pets!
I'd welcome Aundrea back to house/pet sit for me any time. She's cheerful, personable and competent. She took great care of the animals and took time to share some photos of their adventures together. On returning, the house was clean and tidy. Five stars for sure.

Lisa & Mitch DeMarais - empty nesters
Lisa and Mitch just completed a second sit with our dog, Tinsley, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Because she was in their capable hands, we did not worry about her for a minute and were able to enjoy a carefree vacation. Communication before and during the sit was wonderful, and we appreciated Lisa's frequent updates and photos of a happy Tinsley enjoying her time with them. When we returned, the house was spotless and our dog was obviously well looked after. Lisa and Mitch are a delightful couple, and we are happy that our paths crossed. We highly recommend them as wonderful and zeewoi!

Caring + Communicative Sitter for Pets, Plants, & Homes!
Maeve stayed with my dog Juno for a month, and I was never worried about Juno getting the best of care. Maeve even had to deal with my furnace going on the fritz during the coldest week (in January in Minneapolis!) and took it like a champ! I highly recommend Maeve as a sitter.
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!
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!
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.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
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!
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!
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.
