Dannevirke, New Zealand
Handy pet & coffee-loving couple, in Europe and UK for a year! Own transport.
Samantha and Gareth are super house sitters and a fun loving very reliable couple. We couldn’t have asked for better. The cats were in tip top condition as was house when they left. A pleasure to meet and we hope they come back again.

Active retired couple
It was lovely to meet Linde and Robert and I felt very comfortable leaving them in my home with my elderly dogs. They were in touch with daily WhatsApp updates and photos which was great, and the dogs and house were clearly very well looked after. I would highly recommend them!

We are Xanthe and Felix, a young creative couple from New Zealand.
Xanthe and Felix looked after our Border Collie, birds, guinea pig and chooks for the weekend and were brilliant! Super easy to communicate with and offered brief updates throughout their stay. Whilst we didn't meet them in person we were grateful for their attention to our pets! We wish them both well on the future travels :)

Retired vet with years of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes
A+ sitter. Poor Jasper was unwell during our trip away, but fortunately Amy is a retired vet so knew we were in safe hands! Very grateful (and very, very guilty!) can’t recommend highly enough. G

Energetic couple with a passion for animals
Margo and Aaron were amazing sitters. They have looked after our cats before and we were delighted for them return. They gave a lot of time to playing with our two indoor cats, one of which is very nervous. With patience they won him round and he became settled. The videos and What’s Ap messages were fun and informative. Margo and Aaron kept us up to date with cat news! When we arrived home our house was immaculate ( we don’t have a cleaner). We would be extremely happy for them to come to us a third time if they ever wanted to brave the heat where we live ( although a/c helps!). I’d be happy to give them more than 5 stars if that’d be an option! Thank you Margo and Aaron.

Merinda
Merinda was the best sitter we could have asked for! She was reliable and trustworthy, as well as self sufficient. She kept us updated and looked after Hal so well, playing ball with her and taking her on walks. Everything was a breeze and she really put us at ease, as we were nervous to leave Hal with someone we didn’t know for 5 nights but I didn’t need to be worried. Hal loves her! Thank you so much.

Winter housesitter.
Carol was absolutely wonderful, our dog Ollie was really well cared for and we think he misses Carol not being here. Our home was left in a very neat and clean state. We would certainly recommend Carol to anyone looking for a kind and caring person to look after their pet and home, we are really Going to miss Carol.

Mad about cats.
I had a wonderful house sitting experience with Debbie. I was present for her first and final night and she was awesome company. Taylor became very fond of her and was very chilled, happy and well fed in our absence. I’d welcome Debbie back to my home any time. Thank you.

Katreena is an organized and caring individual. She cared for my dogs as though they were her own, and catered to their personalities. Katreena made this a wonderful experience!

Ready, willing & able to shower your fur-baby with love, belly rubs & cuddles
Maggie was a dream house and pet sitter. Our original sitter let us down at the last minute so it was a frantic search to find someone else to fill the gap. She was a very lucky find for us. Nothing was too much trouble for Maggie. I left her a pile of instructions, as I am a very fussy home owner and I must say, the house was pristine when we got home. Maggie sent regular pictures & updates on Jock, who from what I can gather, was more than happy with the arrangement! I would thoroughly recommend Maggie for any future house-sits. We had no problem entrusting her to our new home and crazy little dog.
Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her! Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload. But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too. Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control. Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures. If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!
Brian was great and was my first sitter experience through TH to look after my two little dogs and one of them was a recent rescue I had for a month and learning new things and still training. Brian was good with communication, clear about his travel plans and we managed adjustments to him coming in early by a day. This was helpful for me to feel I can personally give orientation to my home and pets before leaving for a few days. Brian was also good with the hand-off to my next sitter when weather conditions delayed me. I came back to a tidy home and happy pets. Brian was calm with my new pup's minor furniture destruction. Thankfully I bought the warranty! I would recommend Brian to anyone and would consider him again for future sits!
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
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
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.
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.
Cannot say enough good things about Charli and Jeff, a delightful couple who took great care of both dog and house. Loved their enthusiasm and attention to details. They are full time traveling pet/house sitters and it shows. They are organized, punctual, extremely tidy and completely self-sufficient. Charli, Jeff, it was a true pleasure to meet you both and you are welcome back any time your future travels bring you to the Charleston area. Warm hugs from myself and Forest.
Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem! They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice! Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here. She let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the animals. The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home! Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
