We were so glad Tina stayed at our home with Finney; it made relaxing on vacation a bit easier. Our home was clean and tidy upon return and I loved getting regular photo updates. Tina is nice and seems to care about all the different animals she has stayed with.

As soon as Zoe’s application popped up on my screen, I knew instantly that she would be a perfect fit for our house sit… she immediately stood out from the crowd. And we were right… Zoe is the PERFECT house sitter. We’ve had many wonderful house sitters over the years but Zoe rates as one of our top sitters.. she has that special ‘something’ :) From our very first conversation, we were struck by Zoe’s genuine interest, warmth, friendliness and her enthusiasm and authenticity. Zoe clearly loves animals …and it didn’t take us long to see that our VERY fussy and quirky Siamese cat (Chloe) was feeling extremely relaxed with Zoe. Our chatty fur baby who can sometimes be a handful, was asking Zoe to pet her tummy (…that usually comes with a warning label if she doesn’t trust you); and she was in her ‘happy’ pose in the gorgeous daily video’s and photo’s that we got from Zoe. We are convinced that Chloe didn’t even realise that we were gone, and she slept in Zoe’s room the first night after we got back, which is unusual. We think that she was missing Zoe… We have very specific requirements around Chloe’s food and general care, and Zoe clearly respected and followed all our (long list of) instructions. On top of caring for Chloe, Zoe went the extra mile by helping us feed our local wildlife (wallabies; possums and magpies), as it’s been extremely dry and there has been a food shortage for wildlife. She took everything in her stride. We came back to an immaculate home, a relaxed and happy cat and well-fed wildlife. We can’t recommend Zoe highly enough and we’ll be asking her to return for our next sit if we’re lucky enough that she’s available. Thank you, Zoe, for stepping in for us whilst we were away and for taking such amazing care of our fur baby, wildlife and home. We’ve now got you on speed dial and you’ll be the first call we make when we go away again in the future ;)

Aleksey (Alex) was a completely responsible and attentive Housesitter. He proactively communicated with us before and during the sit. The house was spotless upon our return. When our dog had an issue with her ear, he took care of it right away both thoroughly and with a great attitude. Alex is clearly very experienced with dogs, very bright, attentive to details and responsive. I would wholeheartedly recommend Alex to another family and I would welcome him back to our home any time!

She was great. The house was well taken care of and the dogs were happy. We had a few unexpected things come up while we were gone and she was great about communicating with us and handling whatever needed handling. Highly recommend!

Jessica was a pleasure to host at our home. We met her and her partner Dan online first, she sent both their passport details, kept in touch about arrival plans, including sharing her location. Once in residence she sent photo updates as agreed and only texted twice for additional info. Our cat clearly adored her and followed her around. The house was in good order on our return - she advised of the minor issues that had arisen due to the heatwave in advance. I would happily have her look after our cat and home again

"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.

Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!

There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo.

From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. 
He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away.

This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of.

Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for.

I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! 

Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift !

Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down.

Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! 

I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! 

Thank you, Teresa for everything....

Milo and I so appreciate you .....

Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.

Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for.   She is a very warm, open and diligent person  and our two cats adored her.  She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care.

She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind.
The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition.

We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.

Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐

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!

Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!

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!
