Friendly, pet-loving Kiwi couple
Georgia and Callum were excellant house sitters. We felt relaxed with them from the onset and enjoyed dinner with them before we set off. They stayed in touch and gave us updates during our trip. The house was left in excellant order and they really went the extra mile. We would love to see them again.

Happy kiwi couple, tiny house living in New Zealand
Chelsea and her partner came over to Queenstown to look after Harry and Matai the weekend for us, and my parent dog Stitch last minute! They were great to have in the house, clean and tidy, and great communicators. Thanks ladies!

KIWI GARDEN LOVERS - to care for your pets, house and garden. Summer 2024
Toni and Paul are a fantastic couple and brilliant housesitters. They were great at communicating before the sit (and during it) and I was confident we would be leaving everything in safe hands. When they arrived they slotted in easily and quickly, they are fun to be around and they were so thoughtful and helpful that it took away a lot of the last minute stress of leaving home. Bertie our spaniel also took to them immediately and I was quite happy leaving him in their very capable hands. They are the sort of people who you know would just cope with anything that happened with no fuss. On our return home the house was immaculate, Toni had put flowers everywhere, had made jam with all the extra fruit we had growing, and also made some delicious cakes. Again they were so thoughtful about making things on our return as easy as possible for us. In addition they had done lots in the garden and it was a joy to come home and not find everything totally overgrown. Some people just make life better for the people they come into contact with, and that applies to Toni and Paul. They are a wonderful couple and my only regret is that we had not had longer to spend with them while they were here. I simply cannot recommend them highly enough.

Karen and Andrew were so easy to communicate with - they were flexible and helpful with timings and arrangements. My small dog was on antibiotics by the time they arrived and they managed her medication effectively with no fuss. Very kind, gentle, self sufficient people who clearly have a great rapport with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Every thing was left beautifully clean and tidy and I would welcome them both back any time.

Mature, responsible & active couple. Lifetime pet owners
Sally from the start of the process was fantastic given the distance from her home to the UK she put us at ease at every stage. The dogs had a fantastic time with her and bonded very easily. Leaving the dogs for the first time and also having someone in your house was a slight concern but after the way they were looked after and the care and consideration taken with the house I would not hesitate to use the service again.

Ashley and Nick were wonderful caregivers for Kiki - she clearly loved them and they sent lovely photos to let me see how well she was settling into having them around. They left the house in an immaculate state and were just delightful. They made both going away and coming home stress-free. I highly recommend them.

Exceptional!!! Our dog has seizures and is on medication twice a day. Dovi stayed on top of it amazingly well! Tons of communication and daily updates! I wish she could always take care of our dog!!!!!
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
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. ⭐
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!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
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!
