Wendy is a wonderful house sitter! She is great with communication, very kind and easy going. A perfect match for our little Samantha, who has had a little anxiety from having to be re-homed after her human mom passed away. Samantha was very well taken care of and super happy when we arrived back home, she loved Wendy! I would have her sit for us again every time if I could! They were two peas in a pod, I couldn't be more happy with the care that Wendy showed us. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone who needs excellent care for their fir babies!

I can see why Donna and Tom are reviewed so highly by previous home owners. They went above and beyond in flexibility and communication, as well as pet, garden and home care. I was touched by how they left fresh food for me even though they could easily have taken all back with them since they are locals. I do so appreciate the work keeping up with watering my many containers. My newly-planted pansies look great!

Elizabeth & Sebastian were terrific sitters! They were very loving with Bhindi and made sure she had lots of exercise. They bonded with her and made us feel at ease knowing she was in good hands. They also went above and beyond in taking care of the house. When we returned home, the house felt cleaner than we left it, and their thoughtfulness was much appreciated.

McKayla was a wonderful pet and house sitter. I only wish she lived near by so she could take care of Oscar and Sylvia every time I traveled. She took good care of our indoor and balcony plants, left the apartment clean and organized, and, most importantly, she connected with and took special care of the cats who were very relaxed and happy when we got home.

This was Heidi’s second time sitting with Noodle. She is fabulous! Her communication was excellent and the daily photos of Noodle always made me smile. There was another sitter for the first part of my trip and the two of them coordinated the handoff beautifully. Noodle loves being with Heidi and all the playtime they have together. My place was in beautiful condition upon my return and I was greeted with a nice welcome home note. With 5 stars I highly recommend Heidi. We look forward to her return someday.

As the first Trusted House & Pet sitter I've used, Tammy set the bar for future sitters unimaginably high. She was kind, pleasant, exceptionally patient and exuded a calm and ease that my coonhound seemed to pick up on and appreciate (as did I) from the moment she stepped in the house. Nothing came up she couldn't handle, and I returned to a house that was neater and cleaner than I can remember it ever being. Dave and I are both hoping she'll do another sit here,

Hallie did a wonderful job in taking care of Pippin and Archie! She was an excellent communicator before, during and as she departed. Incredibly capable, Hallie asked for clarification when needed and sent daily updates and photos. I would have her house and pet sit again anytime!!

Claire was warm and friendly and a great communicator with me. She was great with the dogs and often sent pictures. She got the dogs out for walks on and off leash and was great company for them! Claire was flexible when my flight ended up delayed due to a storm at home. She reassured me that all was well at home and with the dogs. Claire left my place clean and tidy! We would love to have Claire back to stay!

This is the 4th time Sarah has sat for us. Needless to say, we wouldn't have her back again and again if she wasn't totally fantastic. She communicates with us every day with pictures of our fur babies. The house is always immaculate when we return. Her best attribute is that our kitties love hanging with Sarah. I couldn't give her any higher marks. Our cats miss her already!

Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back

Marlen was such a blessing. We had another sitter cancel just a week before our vacation date so I was so relieved that she was able to step in at such short notice. She came to meet our pups a few days in advance so they would recognize her.  While we were away,  Marlen sent picture updates and made sure the dogs were cared for. So glad to have found someone like her to help us out.

David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!

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.

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend.   Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay.  It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail.   She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures.  I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it.  I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!

Lisa was a terrific sitter for our sweet Rosie.  She arrived the evening before the sit, and we immediately could tell how much love and attention Rosie was to get.  She provided updates and pictures which we were delighted to read, and we could tell Rosie was happy and well-cared for with Lisa on their walks and fetching sessions, on their car rides, and during Rosie’s many daily naps.  Lisa left the house in great condition, she’s very tidy and clean. Lisa’s experience with dogs and her friendly, sweet personality makes her an excellent sitter taking good care of animals while also being easy to communicate with.  I would recommend her and would gladly invite her back.

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!

Melissa and Chris are amazing.  We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity.   They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them.  Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could.  I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them.  They also took very good care of our house and  plants.

To this list of attributes I would add flexible, capable, sensitive, extremely good with the dogs even if one of mine is sometimes a little ornery, and just a wonderful person all around.
Because of constantly changing circumstances due to a move and coronavirus, my dogs ended up spending not two weeks but a whole month with John and they were so comfortable and happy.
John helped them in so many ways and coordinated shipping them overseas, he went above and beyond the wildest stretches of what a house sitter entails and did it with a smile and a laugh and reassurances that all would be well. And indeed he was absolutely right - the dogs arrived so well cared for that all my fears of them being traumatized went out the window.
John’s flexibility, and his kindness as well as his impeccable maintenance of my house in my absence all make me recommend him an absolute 10 out of 10.
Thank you John for all your help this summer!!
