Laura
Rural, Indiana
I am a trustworthy and responsible animal lover and travel enthusiast!
Laura is by far the best housesitter/petsitter we have ever had! She was great with Oliver, easily managed his meal routines, and made sure to shower him with lots of love and snuggles while we were away. He has continued to look for her after she left — not something that happens often with him! Laura left our home even cleaner than when she arrived, and did an amazing job going above and beyond in keeping our home in great shape. She even went out and bought toys for both our dogs before leaving! I would happily have Laura watch Oliver and our home again because I know they will be both in excellent hands.

Marilynne & Alan
This was the 2nd time Alan and Marilynne watched my cats for me, and I knew Sylvie and Monet would be in great hands because Alan and Marilynne had been so great the first time! They sent updates and pictures of the cats cuddling with them, and are so friendly they even had dinner with my neighbors one night! Another thing that stood out was how great they were when my cat got sick the night before/morning I left for my trip. I was so worried about the timing, but they assured me they were comfortable with anything they needed to do to help her- they went and got meds for her, kept me updated, and even called the vet when she got sick again. I've been home for several days, but I got a text from them today asking how Sylvie's doing now. These are very kind and caring people, totally trustworthy and do a great job!

Reliable * Dependable * Trustworthy
Nikki arrived early for her sit so we had a few hours to meet her and introduce her to our dog Olive. She was very pleasant and we totally felt comfortable that she was the right choice for our vacation. Upon returning home our home was in very clean shape, the bedding was washed and there was a detailed note and vase of flowers that she had left for us. We highly recommend Nikki for your pet sitting and we will certainly reach out to her next time we need a sit as well. Thank You Nikki!
Jessica
Rural, Indiana
Animal-loving vegetarians. Clean, happy, professional!
Jessica was everything you hope for in a pet sitter. She was very communicative, flexible and sent us great updates of our pets with photos. Our travel plans home were upended by a canceled flight and Jessica was great to work with to ensure our pets were taken care of until we got home. Highly recommended!
Andrea

Responsible and Loving Female, non-smoker.
Andrea is a great and caring sitter who I found quite trustworthy with taking good care of my babies. She took her commitment quite seriously and always prioritized my little ones' needs, was friendly and communicative, quite clean, and had lots of information written down for me upon my return. Thanks for being so caring, Andrea!

Homebody with Wanderlust Seeking More Four Legged Friends
We love Karla and hope she will come back again. She is great to our pets and taking care of our home, very kind and very respectful in all she does. This is her second time and we really appreciate her! She would be a great pet sitter for anyone.
Devon
Rural, Indiana
Couple looking to pet new dogs & cats + see a bit of America
Devon and Mitch are terrific people and house and pet sitters! We left the country for 10 days and they took care of our home, our kitties and they did it all perfectly! I would have Devon and Mitch come back anytime!
Jenna
Rural, Indiana
Communicative pet sitter with 5+years of experience coming to a city near you!
Jenna did a fantastic job with my cat and dog and home. She communicated just the right amount to put me at ease without overwhelming me while traveling. I recommend her highly and would be delighted to have her sit again. Thanks Jenna!
Ann
Rural, Indiana
Retired Pet Care Business Owner Wants to Meet Your Furry Family Members.
I am delighted to provide a heartfelt review for Ann, who without a doubt stands out as the finest pet sitter we have ever had the privilege of working with. In the midst of a natural disaster involving wildfires here in Lahaina, Ann's exceptional professionalism and unwavering commitment truly shone through. During this challenging time, Ann's performance was nothing short of remarkable. Faced with circumstances beyond our control that prevented us from returning home, Ann displayed an exceptional level of preparedness and resilience. She took charge of the situation with admirable determination, ensuring the safety and well-being of our beloved dog. Her dedication was underscored by her willingness to extend her stay to provide care and support during the crisis. Throughout the ordeal, Ann exhibited a level of grace and composure that can only be described as exemplary. Ann's ability to remain calm, communicative, and positive during such adversity was a testament to her exceptional character. Her continuous updates and thoughtful communication eased our concerns even while we were unable to be there ourselves. Ann's actions during this time solidified her status as a true guardian for our furry friend. In fact, it is hard to express in words the depth of our gratitude for Ann's unwavering commitment and selflessness. Her actions were nothing short of angelic, and we can wholeheartedly say that we could not have asked for a better, more reliable, and compassionate sitter for our pet. Ann's resilience, coupled with her genuine concern for both our pet, sets her apart in a league of her own. As we reflect on this experience, we are left with immense admiration for Ann's incredible qualities. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity for Ann to care for our dog, Bexley, again in the future. Her presence brought us immense comfort during a trying time, and we are profoundly grateful for all that she did. In summary, Ann's performance as a pet sitter during the wildfire crisis was truly extraordinary. Her unwavering dedication, calm demeanor, and positive outlook make her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking the very best care for their beloved pets. We wholeheartedly recommend Ann to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.
Detra
Rural, Indiana
Love life, traveling, and animals.
Detra was phenomenal! She happily met with me over Facetime prior to the sit and I could tell right away I didn't have to worry about anything. She was exceptional with communication, giving updates, and being clean and tidy. I could tell my pets enjoyed her company while she was here and that they were relaxed. She would be a blessing to anyone that she sits for.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Claudia
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!
Francisco
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.

I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.

Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would.
Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned.
I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
Patty
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Sunny
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)

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!

Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!

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!
danica and ajit
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
