Fiona and Alan were excellent house sitters and took wonderful care of our menagerie. While we were overseas, we received regular updates and images of our pets and it was clear the animals were having their own holiday retreat. When we got back home, Fiona and Alan had made a lovely dish for us and left the house immaculate. We couldn't have been happier with the way they looked after our place and animals.

Kim and Rowan were wonderful sitters for Kato and for our home. They arrived on time. They left the house immaculate (Rowan kindly mowed our lawn) and left Kato, our over-sized lap-dog, happy and well-exercised. I have no hesitation in recommending them unreservedly.

Rochelle and Lawrence took excellent care of our three year old cockapoo, Gryffin. They were very organized prior to the sit and confirmed arrival/departure times well in advance. They sent great photos during the sit and I could tell Gryffin was in good hands. The house was left clean and I could tell Gryffin really liked them when we got home. Thanks again for giving Gryffin so much love while we were away!

Natacha & Johnathan were the perfect house sitters! From the start they were excellent with their communication, asked all the right questions about looking after the flat/cats and were super flexible when dates slightly changed for us which was really appreciated. Zorro & Sambi clearly loved their company and we received plenty of updates throughout our trip away. Then to top it all off we came home to a spotless flat and a little treat from NZ! I'd recommend Natacha & Johnathan to anyone looking for a sit & would welcome them back any time!! x

Ruby and Isobel were great with our cat Murko and took excellent care of our flat while we were gone. They were reliable and responsive before, during, and after their stay which put our minds at ease while away. Without hesitation, we would have them housesit for us again.

Maria & Frank were wonderful looking after our house and dog Paddy. With a road closure, Frank flew over to look after Paddy on time while Maria joined him later on. Paddy was walked often and loved by them and was very happy and in good shape when we returned. The house was clean and tidy when they left and we have no hesitation recommending Frank & Maria and using them again.

What a fantastic couple! Eric and Lesley were extremely self sufficient and excited to explore the city of Brisbane while engaged in this sit. They created a wonderful bond with our dog, Chester, and looked after our house beautifully. We arrived back to a delicious home cooked dinner, a happy and contented dog and an immaculate home. We could not have asked for more!!! Eric and Lesley are everything you could want as Zeewoi and we would highly recommend them for future sits.

Natalie was a fantastic housesitter and is such a lovely person! We went away for 10 days and throughout that whole time Natalie kept us updated with pictures of our two cats. She was very responsive and left the flat super clean and tidy, and our cats were clearly very well cared for during our absence. We'd be delighted to have her back to housesit again!

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

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.

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!

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!

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.

Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!

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.

This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!

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.

Veronica House sat for us for a month.  She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat.

Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals.  They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them.

When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe,  she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity.  She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks.  This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy.

A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in.
 
Our cat was so content and well-groomed​ upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention,  too.

Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day.

I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home.

We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.
