Excellent - Highly Recommend! We recently had the pleasure of having Abeela take care of our home and Toby the Cat while we were away, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. Abeela took the time to understand Toby’s routines and habits, which gave us great peace of mind. During our time away, she provided regular updates and photos/videos of Toby, which was incredibly fun. It was clear that he was well-loved and in great hands. When we returned home, we found everything in perfect order—clean, tidy, and even better than we had left it. Toby was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Abeela went above and beyond, taking care of every detail. It’s evident that she takes pride in her housesitting and genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets and homes she looks after. We highly recommend Abeela to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. We hope she will return again in the future! Lori and Jim

A responsible & cleanly couple looking for adventure & new furry friends! :)
I was very happy with Logan & Lindsey. They kept in touch regularly & with pictures, the house was left clean & tidy. I was delighted when they were able to get my shy cat Sasha socializing with them.

It was a short sit but Patrick was great. Sent some really great photos of Charlie and communicated every day. We will definitely try to book him again.

I’ve put Donah in my favorites list. She is reliable, self-sufficient, has her own personal items, and my pets love her! Definitely recommend Donah.

Caring, reliable and enthusiastic house sitter!
Rosalyn took great care of my home and 3 cats while I was away. She is a very sweet person, and obviously loves animals. Rosalyn sent me updates and. photos of my cats looking very happy, which I appreciated very much. I came home to a clean tidy house and happy cats!

Leave your pets, and worries, behind.
James was great and so appreciated his extra care and patience with Simba. He braved a crazy heat wave and great at communicating.

Dependable, Trustworthy, Responsible: ready to care for your house and your pets
Our dog loves Emily. We've had her pet and house sit many times, and it's always so wonderful not worrying about a thing while away. We highly recommend!

Pet-loving couple exploring the world one sit at a time
Harley and Ben were a pleasure to work with! They were communicative, left the home looking clean, and our cat was relaxed and happy when we returned. Would recommend!
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!
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
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!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
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!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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!
