Mature, responsible, caring, animal lover.
We’ve had many great Petsitter’s, but Janice is by far one of the best we’ve had. She was detailed oriented and worked very hard to make sure Lola (and Chloe) were well taken care of. At Lola’s age and considering that she is such a picky eater, she can sometimes be trying, but Janice pulled out all the stops to make sure she ate and took her required medicine. She even went to a specialty pet store to buy Lola new dog food that she loved! She also took care of our tropical plants in a greenhouse in our backyard since the temps went below freezing, which was an unexpected task. The house was spotless when we returned. You would have never known someone was in our house! Janice is a great communicator—she sent us regular updates and pictures of Lola and Chloe, and she was always quick to respond to any text messages. She has a great sense of humor! I would highly recommend Janice, and we certainly hope we have the opportunity to have her in our home again.

Dog lover, excited to make new four legged friends in a quiet place to relax
Rebekah and her son, Owen, are regulars at our house. The dogs love to have them around and we’re thankful we’ve been able to host so many times. They’re always communicating with us with animal updates, very clean and considerate of our space!

Eager to take care of your beloved pet(s) when you can’t bring them with you!
It was a pleasure to have Andrea sit for us. She took excellent care of our home and pets (2 cats and 2 hamsters). Before the sit she was very happy to talk and provide all the information and reassurance we were looking for. She was easily contactable both before and during the sit, providing updates as requested. At the end of the sit we really appreciated coming back to a clean and tidy home. We'd be extremely happy to welcome Andrea back to sit again in the future!

Julie looked after our fur-baby, Paddy, for 3 days on the last leg of her European trip. She was great in communicating with us, both before and during the sit. She bonded really easily with Paddy and it was wonderful to go away knowing he was in caring and attentive hands. We came back to an immaculately clean house and a very content cat. Julie is a kind and thoughtful person and we would have no hesitations in recommending her as a sitter. Thank you so much Julie!

Professional couple excited to care for your pets and home!
Jane and Wayne were the best! They were very personable, caring, and I felt like I had known them my whole life. Rosie felt very loved as I could tell by the daily pics. And their congeniality was over the top. Definitely recommend them staying at your home and caring for your pets!

Retired couple seeks new experiences in new locations with new people and pets
This was Bob and Mary’s third sit for us, and we would welcome them back any time! They are so easy to work with and seem to truly enjoy our pups. Communication is excellent and they sent lots of pics to let us know what they were up to with the dogs. We trust them completely with not only our dogs but our home as well. Can’t recommend them more highly!

Cayla is great! She’s well organized, communicative, friendly, and detail oriented. All of our dogs (2) and cats (3) warmed up to her quickly and enjoyed spending time with her. She’s very thoughtful and intentional. She took great care of the space. Would highly recommend! We really enjoyed meeting her.

Tamara was an outstanding sitter. Everything you could want in a sitter. Excellent communication from the beginning. I know my pets were well taken care of since my dog continues to look for her a day after her departure. And sleeps in the guest room during the day. (Not her usual place to sleep) She went the extra mile and fixed a pot of soup for us and left it in the fridge so we would have something handy to eat after traveling all day. It makes for a great holiday when you know everything is in good hands.

Looking forward to seeing new places & faces.
Becky did a great job while I was gone. She took excellent care of my pets and home. It was such a relief to be able to travel and know your pets were being well taken care of. She sent multiple photos, videos and updates confirming happy pets! She asked appropriate questions about home expectations and followed through so I came back to a clean house. The peace of mind that Becky provided meant so much. I would love to have her back again.
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!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
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
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 .
