Providing Pet Sitting in the Vechta, Germany
Reliable and animal-loving teacher will take great care of your home and pets
Melanie, her sister Nadine and friend Vanessa were wonderful houseguests during our two week trip away. Sadly, our dog Tucker passed away the day before they arrived from a three month illness, but we were so happy that the ladies were here to supervise the house and take care of my many plants - inside and outside during the hot Florida summertime. They had met Tucker in February when they were in the area so it was very unfortunate the timing involved as we knew they would have been wonderful pet sitters. The house was left spotless and there we no issues whatsoever while we were away. We communicated a few times to touch base but the ladies were entirely self sufficient and gave us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend Melanie and her sister and friend if you ever have the chance for them to house/pet sit.

Reliable, flexible and caring sitter
Elke was before the sit very organized and flexible. While the sit Elke took amazing care of my two cats. She send me some updates and photos while the sit and I always had a great feeling that my cats where in her care. When I came back my cats looked super relaxed and happy. As well my apartment was very clean and tidy. I can just highly recommend Elke as a sitter! And she is more then welcome to sit for my cats again!

Reliable student with a remote job who loves animals and travel
We were very happy with Anna. She sent us regular updates and our cats were in good hands. As a matter of course, she bought some things that had been used up, even though she didn't need to. Many thanks for that! The flat was not quite as clean as I would have expected, but perhaps I should have communicated it better. But all in all, we were very happy that we could rely on her and be away from home for a fortnight.

Engineer, Traveler and pet lover.
Tobi is the perfect house sitter. We got along really well straight away and were grateful that he was there. He took great care of our animals and the household. Our dog felt comfortable sharing the bed with him. I think he misses him too. Tobi even gave us presents and he left everything, including the laundry, better than he found it. Thank you!

Reliable, trustworthy, non-smoker, ready to look after your home & love your pet
We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Catharina and Frank! We faced some travel adversities leaving for our trip with flights and didn't get to meet them in person before we left. But it was no problem for them; they put our minds at ease and adapted to our home without any fuss and they had no issues bonding quickly with our big dog, Darla. Both Frank and Catharina have a special way of connecting with pets and that was clear through the videos and photos we saw of our dog interacted with them at lakes, the ocean, the trails and while relaxing at home. They are kind, great with communication and extremely reliable. I wish them the best and would welcome them back into our home with our pets again.

Maja & Jinsu (Lao DU)
Maja and Jinsu were wonderful housesitters and looked after our cats and our home perfectly. Before the housesit we really appreciated their communication. During the housesit they really took the time to get to know our two cats and appreciate their different personalities. They weren't just feeding our cats, they were engaging with them, playing with them, and caring for them. We felt very relaxed knowing our cats were being looked after so well. Maja and Jinsu kept in touch during their stay and let us know how the cats were doing and sent photos. Our house was super clean and tidy when we returned from holiday. We would be super happy for Maja and Jinsu to housesit again for us and recommend them very very highly as housesitters.

open minded - nature loving
Egbert is a very nice person, reliable,kind, organised,self sufficient and clean. We arranged to meet the day before my trip and I really appreciated that because we had the time to know each other a bit and also my pets could start to take some confidence with him. He sent me daily updates,he is also really good at taking pictures, and left the house clean and tidy.

Committed, prudent and trustworthy. That's what you can expect from me.
Felix was terrific! He took care of our cat, plants, house, and yard for 3+ weeks while we were away. Our cat was happy and clearly well-taken care of when we returned. The house was super clean, the plants were thriving, the grass was cut, and everything was tidy. Felix communicated frequently during our travels and was always very responsive. We would be very happy to have Felix back for our next trip - highly recommended!

Calm nature and animals loving couple
Julia (& Hendrik who only joined for a few days on this sit) smashed it. She went above what I could have expected in a cat sitter and was super attentive when it came to Momo and his needs. To give an example she noticed that Momo spent his nights guarding the cat flap from unwanted visitors and asked if that was normal (the batteries in the microchip flap had died) meaning we could trouble shoot and fix the issue. She sent regular updates and I felt like she took great care to get to know my quirky little furry friend meaning I came home to a relaxed and happy kitty. She left the house spotless and even looked after my plants. Would happily trust her with Momo and my flat again (if only they lived a little closer).
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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!
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!
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!
