We can't recommend Jacki and Warren enough. They were the absolute best. We came home to a very happy dog, a home cooked meal and a sparkling clean house. We were so nervous about leaving our beloved lab for the first time with a housesitter, but even from my first phone call and subsequent meeting with Jacki I felt at ease. Julie took to them both from their first meeting and was actually a bit sad when they left. Jacki stayed with us the day before we left and we had a great time getting to know each other and I could tell that everything would be ok and that I could relax in the knowledge that Julie would be very well cared for. We were sent regular updates about Julie throughout our 4 weeks away, with lots of pics of her having cuddles on the sofa and staring adoringly at Warwick :0) If you're lucky enough to have them as housesitters you can rest assured that your beloved pet will have the best care. We would give them 10 stars if it was possible. Thanks again Jacki and Warwick :0)

Micky and Stu are amazing house and dog sitters! So much so, that we invited them back for a second time. We have 5 dogs which is not an easy task but Micky and Stu seemed completely at ease. We got regular updates and the dogs were really well looked after. We came back and the house was beautiful and clean and tidy. They even left us a bottle of wine! They are responsible, reliable, caring people. The best house sitters we have had!

It was just Marianela who sat for my two cats for a few days. Mari is very nice and showed up when she said she would. I offered her a place to stay the night before the official sit started and she initially declined but the day before said there was a mixup with her lodging so she did end up staying. She needed some items since she was coming from another country so I let her borrow a USB plug which she accidentally took with her when she left but mailed back when I asked her. I asked her specifically to let me know if one of the cats took her pill everyday. Unfortunately, Mari didn’t text me everyday, so I had to ask two times in the short stay. She helped herself to a few items in my pantry - not much but still unexpected and didn’t replace them or leave an alternative. She also left in an agitated state (perhaps she was stressed about traveling) and refused my offer of a ride to the airport leaving me with a less than warm fuzzy feeling. Finally, she has beautiful long hair, but left a bunch on the bathroom floor and shower drain despite cleaning. I also cleaned up sand. This is Hawai’i, but I don’t like sand on the floor next to my bed. I corresponded with Mari about all of these items and she apologized and promised to get better which I think is a sign of maturity despite her young age. I do believe she can improve, but I would not ask her back after this experience.

My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.

Martin and Caitlin are the best house/pet sitters we've ever had. They came fully prepared (they had read through welcome packet thoroughly before they arrived), they sent the best texts and pics to reassure us all was well, and the house was immaculate when we got home. Best of all, they treated Winston like family and he clearly fell in love with them. They are considerate, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. We absolutely would love to have them back (honestly, every time we go on a trip!). They are fantastic and we are truly grateful for the care and love they showed to both our dog and our home.

Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.

Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had.  She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.

Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.

Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication.  She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs.  While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right.  When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order.  A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home  She is a very caring and nurturing individual.

The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

Liz did an amazing job babysitting our home and our pets (3 cats and a dog). Communication with Liz was easy and we felt at ease knowing that everything was being taken care of. Liz took our dog Summer for daily walks and kept her entertained. We got regular photos of our pets which were great.
She even looked after and watered many of our outdoor and indoor plants! She was very tidy and our home was left spotless. If you are looking for a sitter we can't recommend Liz highly enough!
