Anna and Tom are a delightful couple who brought all their warmth with them when taking care of Bruno (dog) and Loulou (cat) When you go away you want to know your animals will be loved and your house protected - Anna and Tom justified the trust we gave them. They literally battened down the hatches during a fierce storm and they handled Bruno’s boundless energy with aplomb. Thank you Anna & Tom!

Frankie and Tavin were fantastic pet/house sitters. They took very good care of our 3 bunnies and home. Frankie has a lot of experience with small pets so she knew how to engage them and get them to feel calm and safe while she and Tavin were at our home. One of our bunnies needs medicine and Frankie had no problem administering it. We came home to a spotlessly clean house and happy bunnies. I would definitely have Frankie and Tavin take care of our bunnies and home again and highly recommend them.

Juan and Ana did a great job with the cats. I got videos and photos every now and then and they always made sure that we stay in contact. The cats seemed chilled, when I came back from my travels and the house was super clean. I can highly recommend both of them❤️

Claire and her family were here to the last two weeks and were an absolute pleasure to have. They looked after Milly and Poppy brilliantly. Poppy was on medication and Claire and Kris dealt with this brilliantly. We got regular updates which was so useful and when we got back the house was tidy, the washing done and there was even a blackberry and apple homemade crumble in the fridge! We really hope they'd like to come again as they would be very welcome at any tine!

We could not have been more pleased with John & Julia and would highly recommend them. Our initial “whatsapp” chat made us feel comfortable in our choice and during their stay they kept us updated with almost daily reviews, updates and photographs of our animals. Our three rescue dogs are usually nervous of strangers but John & Julia soon put them at ease and when they departed it was obvious that the dogs had formed a strong attachment. On our return, the house was in a perfect state, cleaned, linen washed and ironed, what more could we have asked for. We hope that John & Julia will agree to sit for us in the future and we are sure the dogs will welcome them when they return.

Gabriel was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a more patient and caring person to take care of our babies. From the beginning, he was very communicative. When he arrived, he took interest in knowing everything related to the kittens. He was always paying attention to our explanations about the cats, he asked for tips on how to play with them and the most important, he respected their boundaries and their space. One of my cats is really reserved, but she liked Gabriel and even allow him to pet her. The house was super clean when we arrived and our cats were super relaxed. Thank you very much, Gabriel!

Once again Dede was the most perfect pup and house sitter you could ever hope to have the pleasure of using. She leaves our home cleaner than we left it and our pups so happy that they continue to search for her after she leaves.  Dede handled an emergency situation with a false CO2 alarm which resulted in a visit from the fire department perfectly and we were so grateful!  I feel completely comfortable with her in our home and know she is giving our 2 dogs the very best care. Thank you Dede - you truly are the best!

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!

We’re so grateful for the love and care Vanessa gave our two dogs while we were traveling for a weekend. During our trip, she sent us pictures and our dogs always looked happy and at ease. Even during a thunderstorm she cared for our scared older dog who unfortunately had a little accident, and she cleaned up with no complaint. We didn’t have to worry at all which let us truly enjoy our weekend away knowing our dogs were in the best hands!

Vanessa was clean and tidy. We returned home to a neat house and happy pups! She even did the laundry without us asking.

We would highly recommend Vanessa as a sitter for anyone. Thank you so much!!

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!

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.

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

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 !!!

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!

Oh my Goodness!  Where to begin.  Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia!  She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.  When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy!  What more can you ask for, right?  Well with Linda you get all that and more.  Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia.  The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean!  Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
