Happy to Help!
This was Lelsie and Darryl's fourth time caring for our home and pets and they were great as usual. They got Cooper to and from the vet quickly when he unexpectedly needed care. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our home was in good hands.

Iowa City local seeking close by housesitting gigs with great dogs!
Charlie was our first zeewoi petsitter, and he was amazing! He's a very personable and friendly person who obviously cares greatly for animals. We were gone for almost 2 months, so this was a long sit. He took care of our two cats and dog. Charlie sent us TONS of updates and photos and the animals always looked happy and well cared for. He left the house tidy and promptly brought up any concerns regarding the animals or household issues. We had a little health scare with one of the cats while we Charlie was there, and he handled the situation perfectly - he told us about it right away and brought the cat to the vet. Don't hesitate to use Charlie as a pet/house sitter. The animals miss him already!

Former educator seeks travel and furbabies to spoil!
April was awesome! She connected very quickly with the dogs and had a good read on each of their characters. She spent quality time with the cat and tended to her lovingly. Rio and Bijou both had last minute medication regimes to which she responded well to the directions of how to give their meds. She sent photos daily, and really, we felt that our beloved pets and home were safely and lovingly well tended. We look forward to having her back in our home!

Responsible, Friendly Sitter that LOVES Animals!
Anesa is wonderful; I believe she is a true animal whisperer. She quickly forged an incredible bond with my kitties. I could easily tell from the photos and videos she sent how much they took to her. I was so happy to know that they were in such good hands that I could fully enjoy my vacation. She is an excellent communicator and send me soooo many wonderful videos and photos of my little guys. She left the apartment very clean. Finally, she was extremely flexible regarding timing of the initial walk through, etc. I highly, highly recommend her.

Jane was super communicative from the first message right up until she left. She left the house exactly as she found it and Raven got to go on so many walks. 10 stars!!

Crazy dog couple, who also love cats!
Nathan and Linda are wonderful. You can tell they truly care about and love the animals they take care of, even if it’s for a short period of time. The house looked untouched and they kept everything very cleans. My pups were super happy & content boys. Shortly after their stay, one of my dogs had a medical emergency (nothing related to their care) and they were able to provide a very detailed history of his behavior and habits while we were away in a super timely manner. I would 100% trust them to care for your precious babies.

Professor of Philosophy who loves caring for animals and traveling.
Megan was INCREDIBLE. We were so worried leaving our cat and dog whilst away for 2 weeks getting married abroad but as soon as we met Megan, all of our worries went away. She is such a kind, lovely person who is amazing with pets. She kept us updated every day with pictures and brought our dog Odie on adventures to places I haven’t even been to yet!! I hope to have Megan stay with us again, not even as a house sitter but as a friend.

University Students with Veterinary Experience for Reliable Pet Sitting
Mengcheng and Ilya were fantastic sitters! They took wonderful care of my apartment and my cat Margot. I received daily updates, they left my place spotless, and also left/replaced groceries! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, reliable sitter. :)

Trusted, Responsible Sitter Looking for Home/Pet(s) to Care for!
Katie helped make sure my house was taken care of during the winter, while I traveled. Thank you, Katie!
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
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!
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!
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!
I don’t think we could’ve picked a better sitter than Joe! This was our first time using this website/app, and I can only hope that all of our future sitters will be amazing as he was! He was kind, respectful, attentive, extremely clean, (seriously I think our house was cleaner than when we left for vacation), and took such amazing care of our two dogs! He arrived early on the day of our departure so he could meet our dogs and get a detailed run down of their routine. Both of our dogs warmed up to him immediately! :) One of our pups sometimes has the tendency to be reactive towards other dogs on leash. He handled him so effortlessly and with such compassion, it really put any worries I might’ve had aside. While we were away he sent little updates and pictures of the adventures they went on: farmers markets, car rides, long walks, and lots of pets and cuddles. After he left both of our dogs sat out side his room and just looked so sad that their new friend Joe had gone away. I honestly can’t recommend Joe enough! If you are looking for someone, your search should end here!
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
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 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.
