THIS DREAM TEAM MAY BE YOUR BEST HOME, ANIMAL, & COMMUNITY CARE TAKERS! READ ON!
If you’re lucky enough to have Erik and Madison want to housesit for you, don’t think about it twice! They’re the most thoughtful, caring, kind, communicative house sitters you could have and all around wonderful human beings. This was their second time looking after our dogs (and now beta fish too!) and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you thank you thank you Madison and Erik! We hope we get to see you again in Seattle or Spain!

Retired, nonsmoking couple who enjoy animals and exploring new places
Christine and Mark could not have been more charming or more trustworthy and capable of looking after our cat and our rather complicated home. They were unfortunate enough to be at our home during substantial building works and never made a fuss about this. Everything was immaculate when we returned apart from a leaking shower which was not in any way their fault and which they dealt with very effectively when the need arose. I strongly recommend Christine and Mark as zeewoi.

Trustable Teachers
We were delighted to find Lisa and Julie for a sort sit to care for our two Standard Poodles, Maggie and Millie. They had no problems dealing with Maggie's meds and mobility issues, kept the house spotless and sent pix of the girls to us. We were especially grateful for their flexibility when we had so move up their arrival time by more than an hour. They are are just wonderful!

Hardworking, happy couple from The White Mountains of NH.
Lynne and Shanye were phenomenal sitters! Pounces cat was so well-cared for and spoiled--I'm sure she didn't care if I ever returned home! Lynne and Shanye were very communicative, texted often, sent adorable pictures of Pounces, and were so accommodating when I extended the sit by a day. They washed sheets and towels and all was in perfect order upon my return. I would highly recommend them. I was so lucky their dates coincided with mine.

Your animals cool best friend who loves adventures, cuddles and mother nature.
Laura was a great sitter for our house and pup. She was responsive and reliable, and very pleasant to work with. She was able to get our sometimes resistant walker going too. Upon return we came home to a very clean house and a happy pup. We recommend her highly.

Active animal lover looking for an opportunity to care for your wonderful pets!
This is the second time Janet housesat for us, and we just have to rave about how wonderful she has been. I'm embarrassed to say that we forgot to leave a copy of our house sitter instructions and there were a few days when we were camping and were unexpectedly "off the grid". Janet soldiered on despite a few minor issues when she showed initiative and took care of the issues. The pets love her and she sends us pictures every few days that we enjoy. So we'll look forward to future house sit opportunities if they arise.

Pet Owner and Home Owner, Happy to Take Care of Yours.
This is the second time Clare has sat for me and it was smooth sailing the whole time, just as before. She's so considerate with coordination and the information she shares before, during, and upon departure. I can tell she spends ample time with my pup and that makes me rest so easy knowing she's being taken care of and appreciated as if I was there. I would recommend Clare to sit wholeheartedly.

I'm very grateful that Gregg agreed to sit for my 3 kitties on very short notice. He showed up on time, made an instantly favorable impression on my Maine Coon kitty, followed my complex feeding instructions, gave the cats plenty of play time, and left the house organized and tidy. My two younger cats are generally very skittish with males, but by Gregg's second night here they were sleeping on his bed. I would recommend Gregg without hesitation to reliably care for your home and pets.

Mature, responsible couple ready for more housesits
Lindsey and Scott were great sitters. Took great care of my pups and took great care of my home. Communication was wonderful and timely and, I have to say, when your pet sitter is laying on the floor rubbing your pup's belly within 5 minutes of meeting, you know it's a good sign! Highly recommended!
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs! I highly recommend her!!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
