Cat Sitting in Wabasso Beach

As always it was wonderful to have Carly staying in our home. Guinness was well taken care of and very happy when we arrived home. Communication was excellent. Thank you for taking care of our home and our pet Carly!

Robert and Florence took such great care of our Curly. We could tell he was well loved while we were out of town. I had mentioned to them about Curly’s bad breath and Florence provided some suggestions and took action to help! Curly’s breath issues are gone! Thank you! Robert and Florence were flexible with us. Our flights home got very delayed and we were not going to be home in time for their planned departure. They were open to driving Curly over to my sister’s house 20-25 minutes away so he had care until we got home. We were comfortable having Robert and Florence in our home and appreciated their updates on Curly. Thanks again!

Wow! Tom and Kris are such a kind, thoughtful, and responsible couple. They lovingly cared for our pets (2 dogs, 1 cat, and a bird) for a month while we were out of the country. Kris takes beautiful photos, and sent us images of our pets while we were gone. One of our dogs required special attention because of a health issue, and they took really good care of her. All of the animals were healthy and happy when we returned. Tom and Kris took excellent care of our home as well. The whole house, lawn, and garden were in great shape when we returned. I would eagerly invite Tom and Kris to stay at our house again.

Erin was great keeping us up to date and left the house cleaner than it was before we left! Erin is very detail-oriented and will give your pets a great deal of love while you’re away.

I have so many good things to say about Sharon and Dennis! First, they are lovely people with whom I instantly felt comfortable. (They have some family in the neighborhood, so I met them a few months before our sit). Sharon is very organized and communicative, taking time to ensure their arrival and our departure were synced. I could tell they read the manual front to back since she asked great questions about our pups and daily routine. They sent daily pictures of their long walks through the Stanford campus and updated us on our pet's shenanigans. We returned to a spotless house, a lovely note, and wine! They are in high demand for excellent reasons, and I would love to have them sit for us again.

Jeff and Cynthia are great cat and house sitters! They were really easy and fun to communicate with and highly reliable at the same time – everything went smoothly as agreed. Our two cats are rather shy, but Jeff and Cynthia quickly found a way to their hearts. It was obvious that our sitters have a very special affinity with the animals and have an impressive way with them. They regularly kept us up to date on the welfare of our furry friends, supported by photos and videos. On our return we found our flat clean and in excellent condition. We can only recommend Jeff and Cynthia and would hire them again at any time!

Shannon was awesome, paid attention to my pups needs and left the place cleaner than she found it!

The most honest feedback that I can leave about Mark and Patricia is just “Wow!” They were honestly above and beyond any expectations that I could have for house and pet sitters. They were great about satisfying my beautiful kitty’s needs for comfort, companionship, and a little supervised outdoor time. And, they kept in touch with me on a regular basis with photos and videos. Mark and Patricia were also delightful to work with and interact with. I truly feel like I’ve made new and lasting friendships. Lastly, they left my home in better shape than how I left it for them. Simply amazing!

Nicholas was the perfect fit for our month long housesit. We have two large dogs - a 3-year old 70lbs standard poodle and a 2-year old 65lbs labradoodle. Nicholas diligently took the dogs on lengthy walks twice a day and followed all the dietary requests for the dogs. He communicated regularly throughout our trip. We arrived home to a spotless house, healthy plants and trees in the dead of summer, and a yard clean of dog poop. We hope he can sit for us for our next trip! Thank you, Nick!

Randy had sat for me several times and the sit worked out great for both. Unfortunately this time was not the case. In the springtime in my area, male carpenter bees begin to look for wood and create holes for the females to lay their eggs. Carpenter bees look like large bumble bees and are harmless. They don't even have stingers. Randy reacted in the extreme when she saw these on my deck and porch. Carpenter bees are great pollinators and should not be killed. She contacted me after day two and said she could not stay at my house another night. At that time I was 2,500 miles away, about to enter the Sierra Nevada Mountains and soon would not have cell phone access. I stopped my trip and contacted a pest control company to ask what they could do. I learned Randy had also done so and we both learned there was little they could do that would make any difference in the next 24-48 hours. Randy felt this was my problem since I knew they were on the deck and I should have done something before she arrived. I told her I had not, because I knew they were harmless and not to be feared. This did not matter to her and she said she would not stay any longer. I had no choice but to contact and hire a paid sitter to look after my dog for the remainder of the sit. Needless to say, I will not have Randy ever sit for me again.
