Janel
Samara, Costa Rica
I love animals and I'm sure I'll take care of them and pamper them as you do
Janel is an animal lover and has a fun-loving enthusiastic personality. She has great communication skills and was able to provide constructive criticism so we can make future sits easier. Janel sent pictures of our pets while we were gone and made sure we knew how the pets were doing while we were away. She took fantastic care of our goats, guinea pigs, birds and our dog. She left the house in perfect condition making our return home a pleasure! Our dog Rocket was calm and relaxed, excited to see us but not anxious . All the pets were well cared for and again Janel has fantastic communication skills. She left before we returned and made sure the animals were cared for before she left. She also checked in to be sure we had returned. We would highly recommend Janel for any housesitting position she would like to do. She is capable, caring and professional!
Marnie
Samara, Costa Rica
Digital Nomad, world traveller, retired nanny & pet lover.
It was a pleasure to have Marnie house/pet sit for us. Upon our request, Marnie was kind enough to come to our house the evening before our early morning departure. This gave us the opportunity to familiarise her with the care of our cat and our house. After our one week absence, when we returned, our cat was happily well cared of. Our house was clean and in order. Our house plants and perennial flower garden were watered and taken care of. While we were away Marnie sent us nice pictures of our cat. All in all, Marnie was a very good house sitter.

Could not have asked for better! Even replenished my Guinea pigs lettuce supply … which is a quick way to my heart. Minimally disruptive. 5/5
Elio
Samara, Costa Rica
I'll care for your pets, keep your home clean, and give you peace of mind.
He is without a doubt the most professional and loving human being I've met. We cannot thank him enough for all he did for our pets. Layla and Bruno were simply in an incredible state. He kept us updated with everything they did. We were able to fully enjoy our Honeymoon, knowing that our babies would be safe and happy. As a side note, Layla finally got potty trained completely, meaning that she really is now going outside of the apartment, something only Elio managed to do. As for the house, it was impecable. I would recommend him always and if you need any additional details and all, please just let me know. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Cherish
Samara, Costa Rica
Peace of Mind While You Travel
Cherish was coming back to the USA after spending time in Costa Rica. This meant that she had her own settling in issues to deal with, such as getting a car and finding a job. While this didn't affect her care of our cat Shinko, we could tell her focus was often elsewhere. Other than a few honest mistakes that we can attribute to understanding things around the home (though they were documented), our only real issue is that she left the kitchen in a state of disarray, and we had to spend a few hours after 2 days of driving back to clean it up. We were supposed to have a housekeeper come that day, but she ended up being sick, and so that factored into the situation, though it should not have been a factor. Overall, Cherish has a calming personality around our cat and took good care of our home and let us know if she was having a guest(s) over ahead of time. If not for the situation when we returned and a few minor inconveniences, it would have been 5 stars.
Magui
Samara, Costa Rica
Pura Vida Argentina looking to do what she likes most: traveling and enjoy pets
This was our first time on the app, it left some things to be desired. The cats were fine and the apt was clean when we arrived, she communicated her travel plans well and in advance, but there were several things that left us a bit uneasy. The Welcome guide and oral instructions were not followed on several occasions, leading to a potentially risky situation both for the safety of the apartment as well as that of the pets (leaving the garden door open while no-one’s home in full holiday season; leaving the window open throughout the whole stay, even if it was clearly indicated to close it when no-one is at home). We would have appreciated a more proactive communication about the wellbeing of the pets while we were away (not telling us right away one of the cats was missing for half a day, in the beginning had to insist to get pictures). Also the cat litter box was not properly cleaned, leading to urine buildup inside the box. There were several things moved or changed inside the apartment, that left us confused, the instructions for the dishwasher were not followed, leading to damaging some of the cutlery, the freezer was not properly closed since days. And communication in general could be much improved (the night before the sit Magui just assumed we would host her, even if that was not agreed upon beforehand - we did invite her to stay and join us for dinner too, but it felt like a demand, not a request; upon arrival pointing to the open door she abruptly ended communication with us). We believed this site to be a two way street, but it honestly did feel like providing a hotel for someone.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Tim
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
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.
Nina
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Laney
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
Elizabeth
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Carrie
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!
Inma
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!
Clare
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
Julie
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
Francine
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
