We couldn't have been happier with Teressa as our house sitter. Teressa took fantastic care of our home and pets, ensuring everything was in perfect order upon our return. She communicated with us regularly, providing updates and photos that kept us at ease while we were away. Teressa was self sufficient during the sit and It was evident that she ensured our pup was well-cared for and happy. We highly recommend Teressa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible house sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Rachelle and Brad are the perfect house/pet sitters! They are warm with us and, more importantly, with our precious dogs. They took this "job" seriously: sending us photos everyday, taking the dogs on walks faithfully and following all our house- and pet-care instructions to the letter. Rachelle and Brad seemed to grow to love our dogs and, after we returned home and they got ready to take off for their next adventure, the dogs wanted to follow them! That's a successful pet-sitting experience. Moshe and Henri (our dogs) give them two paws up! The house was immaculate! Thank you, Rachelle and Brad!

Lisa and Fritz were great house/pet sitters and we would gladly have them sit again. They left our home, both inside and outside, clean and tidy. Our dogs, Lexi and McCoy were well looked after. It was a pleasure meeting Lisa and Fritz.

Jenifer came to my rescue after having a sitter cancel on me, I can only say it was devine intervention. Honestly, Jenifer is everything this site advertises and you would be lucky to have her as someone to watch over your home and your fur babies. She checks all the boxes as far as being communicative , clean, caring, etc. My cats were feral and definitely would not be considered cuddly, but even after two weeks of being gone I noticed they were a bit more calm, I would not go as far as saying cuddly, but I would say friendlier. Wow! Thank you Jenifer for your time and care, it was truly appreciated. My husband and I (and Mocha and Latte!) ,now have a new friend out of the deal and would welcome her back anytime!

Paula was wonderful all the way around! Both of our Labrador Retrievers, Rip & Huck, really liked her and when we came home it was apparent she had taken fantastic care of them. Paula was always responsive - prior to and during the pet/home sit and kept us up to date. When we asked for a couple photos during our get-away, she happily and quickly provided them. We came back to our home, orchard, and garden looking great just as we had left it. Paula is very endearing, trusting, kind, helpful, and responsible. We highly, highly recommend her - you'd be fortunate to have her stay in your home and watch your pets. We would love to have her again - she is always welcome in our home. Thank you, Paula!

Webster loves Sue and is relaxed and happy when we return. She takes excellent care of him. Sue is also extremely self sufficient and resourceful. When unexpected things happen (like a big wind storm dropping branches over the driveway), she figures out a solution and moves on. We are always so happy when the schedule works and she can sit for us.

Susan and Mike are the best! They have sat for us numerous times and never fail to impress us more with each visit. With our bougie poodle, who requires fresh water in a glass, homemade food and lots of snuggling, they never hesitate to accommodate his demanding needs, all while sending us hilarious updates on how he's doing. After they've gone, he always seems to be disappointed they've left. They are extremely reliable, flexible and organized. If given the opportunity, you should absolutely have them over for a sit.

Greg was absolutely magical with my cats. He quickly understood each cat's idiosyncrasies, and he particularly bonded with the shy and nervous Jewel, who, judging by the photos he sent, was very cozy and purr-y with him. Bertie also received many head-rubs and much affection. The cats were indeed beautifully cared for. The house was well-cared for as well, with everything shiningly clean and welcoming for me when I returned. Communication was easy and clear, by text once we had confirmed the sit. I was delighted to have Greg as a sitter, and would happily have him again. I think the cats would be glad to see him too.

Amy went beyond expectations to make the dogs feel comfortable and calm. One of the dogs was pretty nervous and she was very patient & insightful regarding his needs. He is also leash walking much better (not pulling or reacting to other dogs) which I attribute to her. The house was clean. Amy was flexible, kind and loves dogs. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her back.

Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.

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.

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!!

Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.

Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!

Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!!  We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.

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.

Truly The Best House sitters Ever!!! Shannon, Travis and their son were absolutely terrific. I’m so lucky to have had the genuine pleasure of meeting them. Very warm, generous, open and loving people. My dog Wolfie usually barks at men who come in the house and I was a little worried about how he would be with Travis, but I had nothing to fear because within seriously 1 minute from Travis walking in the door, Wolfie was giving him kisses on the lips! I was so happy to receive their updates and photos and videos of my pets while I was away. They really went above and beyond taking terrific care of my many, many furry and feathered friends. When I got home, the place was sparkling clean, all linens laundered and beds made and they even left me sweet little surprises. I would welcome The Exums back with open arms anytime and highly recommend them.
