Trustworthy, responsible female often accompanied by veterinarian partner
Philippa and Roberto lived up to all their reviews. The handover was easy, even though its a large house and there is lots to explain! Philippa very kindly took me to the airport so we didn’t have to have 2 cars there which saved us a small fortune. They were very good with our dogs and Amba and Zulu took to them straight away. Whilst we were away, Roberto was quick to spot that Amba had a fever and swiftly took her to our vet where she was diagnosed a severe infection. If they hadn’t moved so fast the results could have been so much worse. His veterinary experience was such a bonus and it enabled us to feel confident in the knowledge that all our animals were being well looked after whilst we were on the other side of the world. We knew that Amba especially, was in good hands. Philippa always kept us up to date with daily photos, videos and of course importantly how Amba was progressing on her antibiotics. Roberto obviously enjoyed the Garden as he did much more than just keep things tidy, he even went as far as digging out the nettle roots in the vegetable garden. Which was definitely above and beyond the call of duty. On our return we found all the dog blankets washed and changed, (which is no small feat) house clean and tidy, dogs and chickens happy and chicken coop cleaned out too. AND I CANT BELIEVE IT BUT THEY EMPTIED THE DOG POO BIN!!! For that they get a gold medal! Philippa made us a lovely supper upon our return of Tart Tatin, watermelon, feta and cucumber salad with Roberto’s home made Spanish tortilla. We thoroughly enjoyed their company and they looked after our home as if it was their own. What more can you ask for! Muchas gracias Roberto y Philippa hasta la proxima.

Animal and Nature Lover!
We waren heel blij met housesitter Jim (Darren). Ondanks het feit dat we altijd een duo willen om op ons campo huis en de dieren te passen, heeft Jim ons overtuigd dat hij de juiste ingesteldheid en skills had. Jim heeft ervaring met off-grid wonen, is handig en super lief met de dieren. Hij houdt van orde en ons huis was ook heel proper toen we terugkwamen. Onze hond en 1 van de katten had medische zorg nodig, en daar werd allemaal vlot voor gezorgd. We vragen Jim zéker terug als we nog eens een housesitter nodig hebben en willen hem bij deze ook van harte aanbevelen!

I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the second time to Eva and Alex for staying at my house and for the exceptional care and attention both provided to my beloved two cats during my absence. Their kindness and responsibility truly warmed my heart. Knowing that Eva&Alex took on the responsibility of my house and looking after my two cherished cats for a second time while I was away, brought me an immense sense of relief. The dedication and attentiveness in ensuring their well-being did not go unnoticed. From feeding them with their favorite treats to ensuring they had a cozy and comforting environment, their commitment was evident in every detail. All the conscientiousness and care alleviated any worries I had. Eva and Alex have a willingness to go above and beyond, their care speaks volumes about their character and compassion. At my house things runned smoothly as well, as they had stayed for a long period of time and I am genuinely thankful for their efforts.

We had a great experience having Iratxe and her daughter stay with us and care for our babies (2 dogs, 1 cat). The house was very clean and the animals seemed very well cared for. We even had to have workers at our house while we were away due to some leaking from recent storms and they coordinated with us to let the workers continue the project on our house. We are very appreciative and would have them back again.

Massive thank you to Jose for looking after our mini dachshund Reggie and our cat Cobweb for a week this spring. Jose was quick to communicate and very easy to talk to. He left the house clean and tidy and looked after both animals brilliantly. Would def recommend and have back too. Thanks again!

nature and animals passionate
Mar came with her sister and friend to take care of our pets. And although they didn’t have much experience with horses they managed well. Our New Foundlander got a kilo more on her waist. I think she was very spoiled by Mar. I can recommend them for pet sitting.

Kate and Harry were amazing! Daily pictures and feedback about how our fur babies were. They are lovely people and we feel so fortunate to have had them in charge of the terrible trio while we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone and hope that if they’re ever available to us again that they would return. A1 pet sitters and the cats are visibly missing them this morning! Cannot praise them enough!
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.
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
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!
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.
Such a great family! George, Larissa and their crew were a fantastic bunch. Our large senior dog got an eye infection right before we left for our trip and so we had to ask them to do some extra eye care. When it was clear that it wasn’t getting better they were willing to load up Lorax and take him to a vet appointment and then apply the prescribed ointment for the next week and a half. Definitely above and beyond care that we really appreciated! Our house was left in great shape, our pets were super well cared for, and George and Larissa were great communicators. We have had many many sitters over the past 3 years but this was the first family. Nothing to worry about, they were terrific and we would happily have them back again. Thanks for taking such good care of our fury family and our home!
Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.
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!
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.
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
