Quiet, responsible and looking for peaceful places to read and write while trave
This is the second time we have used Laura. Indeed, we specifically asked her if she would like to come to Valencia again and take care of our three cats. She is a wonderful, smart, reliable person who took great care of our pets. They warm up to her immediately--even the one who usually is very shy. It was so nice for us to know she was there while we traveled. We had no concerns whatsoever and came home to find our cats healthy and happy. She is the best!

Active mature couple seeking a chance to care for your home and fur family.
I would highly recommend Deborah and Brian as sitters. They were amazing. This was our first experience of having sitters and they looked after our fur babies extremely well. They kept in touch throughout the visit and were not phased by one of them being poorly. The house was spotless on our return. Thank you so much Deborah and Brian!

Dog loving couple. Mature, trustworthy and reliable semi retirees.
An excellent sit by Helen and Stuart - we highly recommend them. Prior to the sit, Helen’s communication was brilliant and very reassuring. On the day, they arrived well ahead of schedule and ensured that we felt at ease. They asked a lot of questions to ensure that they understood Chester and his needs, making sure that they could provide the best care for him. Whilst we were away, Helen provided regular updates - both messages and pictures - which was lovely. Upon returning, the house was spotless. We cannot recommend Helen and Stuart enough. Thank you so much guys!

Marianne has kindly sat for us & iggy a number of times which says it all. She’s super flexible & easy going. Iggy has a better brushed coat when we come back than when we went away! Would definitely recommend Marianne.

World traveller, pet lover: where 2 worlds can collide
I'd really recommend Helen, she was organised, friendly and caring. She left the house really tidy and even washed the sheets and made us some soup! She was kind enough to go and pick up a missed delivery from the local post office for us, which was so helpful.

Mature professional couple wishing to look after your pets and home.
Very happy to welcome Debbie and Chris back to look after Archie and Layla for another 2 nights. They are such a friendly couple and it's good to know the dogs are well cared for while we're away.

We are a competent, resourceful and responsible couple who can be relied upon.
Peter and Jean were absolutely fabulous. They loved our ducks and our ducks LOVED them! They cared for our house, watered our pots, grass, garden, greenhouse and vegetables beds; keeping everything alive in this very warm weather the UK has been enjoying. A month is a long house for anyone and they 100% cracked it. We would have them sit for us anytime.
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!
Evan and Maria were fabulous. They are experienced sitters and it shows in their independence. They sent regular updates, but not too regular and were totally self sufficient. Most importantly both the house and dog were perfect when we returned home.
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
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.
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!
I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.
