Edel was a dream sitter. She was incredibly reliable and communicated with me throughout her stay. Our dog, Teddy, instantly loved her. They went on regular walks together, he was kept entertained and I got some fab photos of their time together. I came home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup! I highly recommend Edel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!!

Wilhelmina was looking after our two cats over two weeks and was super reliable and appreciated by our cats. Luckily, we had the chance to meet her before the sit and could show her around. She cleaned after her sit so it was nice to come back. We can highly recommend her, everything was really smooth.

Kerry E'lyn, Colm and their family were wonderful! They took great care of our pets and our home. They were very tolerant of our cat Mittens, who seemed to be going through a phase of confused toilet habits.....really sorry about that lads! 🤦‍♀️ They left our home in perfect order, and a delicious cake in the frideg-what a welcome home! Thank you!!

House Sitters for cats, dogs and other small animals

We had an enjoyable evening with Eilish and Colin the night before we left for France - and this in spite of the fact that we had had to have our beloved ancient spaniel put down that morning and were therefore feeling somewhat subdued. We were entirely happy to leave Eilish and Colin looking after the household. The dogs immediately took to them and everything was very relaxed. We received regular updates during the week and when we got home the house was tidier than we’d left it and E&C had kindly left us fresh flowers and something for supper.

Eimear&Ronan were great sitters! 🤩 Everything went smooth from the first message and get-to-know videocall to the moment I came back home 🙂 They took great care of Bubbles and my home and sent me a daily update/pictures as agreed which allowed me to have peace of mind, disconnect and enjoy my holidays! They greeted me back home and I found a very chilled cat (she barely acknowledged I was back😅) and a clean and tidy place. They also left me a nice little present😻 I can totally recommend them and I d welcome them back home anytime! Thank you so much!

Ethna is such a lovely person and took incredible care of our terrier mix Skipper, and our apartment. She was incredibly kind to drive up to Galway to meet us the weekend before our trip, which completely put us at ease leaving Skipper with her for three weeks. She sent us regular updates and pictures, took Skipper with her on adventures and we could just tell that he absolutely loved her company. When we got back from our trip, the apartment was cleaner than we left it; she had so kindly washed the sheets and everything. It was so nice coming back from a lengthy trip to a clean apartment and dog! We are pretty sure Skipper was a little disappointed to see us get back (and have Ethna leave!) We would not hesitate at all to recommend Ethna to anyone. We would love to have her back sometime and hope to meet again soon.

Megan and Derek were excellent house/ pet sitters. They took our two dogs in their car to go on lovely long walks and administered medication to my older dog. My dogs were obviously well taken care of as on my return they were relaxed. The house was left spotless and they even put on laundry for linens they'd used. Megan sent photos and videos of the dogs on their walks and they took on their role of pet sitting with professionalism. I certainly would recommend Megan and Derek.

Anna and Oleksi have been looking after our two cats while we were away for a week. They have looked after the cats to our complete satisfaction, and the Charlie has been doing so well. Anna and Oleksi have communicated with us regularly and sent short news, photos and film clips from Charlie back home. They have brushed him, played with him, cuddled him and he has enjoyed himself very much. One of our two cats Mystic unfortunately disappeared a couple of weeks ago before Anna and Oleksi arrived but they also took time to help us by trying to find him, based on photos, even though they never met him. Upon our return, the apartment was in excellent condition and clean in every thinkable corner and the air fresh and welcoming. Anna and Oleksi have been fantastic HouseSitters, very nice and capable and can be Trusted in every possible way. We highly recommend them both as an excellent zeewoi. We thank them dearly and hope they will be back again whilst we are traveling.

Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. 

Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them.

I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already.  She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it.  She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand.  She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side.  We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of.  We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!

Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!

We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria!  She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules.  You can tell she truly is a dog lover.  Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care.  We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here.  I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!

Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa!  We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best!

First, communication was fabulous from the start.  They put me at ease before they ever got here.  Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures.  

They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world).    They handled her medications with no problem.

It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them!

I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!

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 🙂

Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.

Piper was a wonderful sitter and I would definitely have her come again.  My dog .Winston loved her and was very happy while I was gone.  When I returned home everything was orderly and clean, she changed her bed and washed all the towels.  I totallly recommend Piper to sit at your home.

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!
