James and Sissi are the sweetest couple. Ready to help in any situation. Even ready to take on 15 newly acquired geese, and that's from having previous homestead experience (Steve did attack one which James calmly sorted out before we got back). Super tidy and very trustworthy, animals were happy and so were we! We will welcome them back and wish them safe travels :)

Marcus and Gina looked after our animals for 17 days while we went on holiday. They sent me photos every second day of my dog out on walks, this made me feel at ease knowing she was safe and happy. I also asked them to look after my cow, this was out of their comfort zone but they did a great job of feeding him twice a day. They left my house spotless. I would highly recommend them to others

Liane and Wes looked after my Benee and home for almost six weeks. I couldn’t have asked for better housesitters. They kept me updated occasionally with pics and news of Benee which I appreciated. When I arrived home Benee was so happy and content, and had obviously had a wonderful time! My home was immaculate! Thank you Liane and Wes - Benee and I look forward to next time!

Deena and Brent looked after our dogs and house with such love that we have asked them to come back again in August and are so excited that they have agreed. I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about their genuine empathy for our dogs. Our house was spotless and the dogs were so relaxed when we got home. We felt so comfortable leaving them in charge. It allowed us to enjoy our break away knowing that we had left them in such capable hands. If I could give them a 6 star review I would !!!!

Karen and her daughter Maya were excellent sitters. They are very kind, tranquil and reliable persons. We met on the day of their arrival and they took the time to get to know the house and our cat Rufus. Communication was very easy and correct during our trip. Karen had washed the sheets they used and the house was tidy when we got home, which was nice. Our old cat Rufus is losing his eyesight and is therefore easily scared but Karen and Maya managed to gain his confidence quickly. He was very at ease and well fed when we got back home. We would surely recommend Karen and Maya and were happy to have them as housesitters🍀😻👍

We feel extremely lucky that Carole and Paul came to stay and look after our dog Sammy whilst we were away. Unusually we were able to meet in person beforehand which was brilliant. As soon as i met them i knew Sammy and the house were in excellent hands. Carole updated me occasionally to reassure me all was well and sent pictures of Sammy on lovely walks. When we returned the house was spotless and we were totally spoilt as they had left us some homemade soda bread and beautiful kiwi gifts. Carole had washed the bedding and towels and Paul had even mowed the lawn!! We are extremely grateful for the love and care they gave Sammy and i imagine he was very disappointed to see them go. I hope that if they are back in the UK they will consider staying at Stable Cottage again. Thank you Carole and Paul for everything.

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!

Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs!
I highly recommend her!!

Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had.  She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.

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!

Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house  and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy  when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.

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.

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected.  I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated.  We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned.  My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed.  Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone.  I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here.  If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry.  I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.

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!

Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.
