Caring animal lovers who will take meticulous care of your home and property.
This is the 4th housesit with Ron and Morgan. They are the best. They are reliable and trustworthy; they love our pets, and our house is spotless when we return from our trip. They are flexible and accommodating. Our pets get excited when they see their vehicle and hear their voices. Ron and Morgan are adaptable even having to deal with a large black bear in the yard. If you want a great housesitter; I highly recommend this sweet couple

Retired dependable Canadian couple exploring the world
Coral and Ken are supremely competent, caring, knowledgable and responsible. They made sure they had all the information needed prior to the start of the sit, kept in regular contact with us while we were away, efficiently handled every aspect of pet and house-sitting, and welcomed us home to two happy and healthy pups and a sparkling clean home. They took initiative - for example, contacting us when our peonies began to bloom and then droop, so that Ken could McGyver a way to support them (he loves a handy project!), - and were on top of the medication and rehab for our pup who recently had knee surgery. They not only asked us for the recipe for the frozen vegetable cubes we make for the pups when the ones we had made ran out, but they came up with a perfect name for them: "pupsicles"! They even checked with us at the end of the sit to find out what groceries they could pick for us, so we arrived home with a few comforts in the fridge. We know how very fortunate we are to have had Coral and Ken care for our precious dogs and home, and we cannot thank them enough.

Animals Love Me Because They Know I Love Them Too!
Anara was a great sitter for our two old cats. Her communication was much appreciated, both before and during the sit. The cats were much loved and the house was clean and tidy.

Julie did everything that I asked her and did not have any trouble except couldn't figure out the paper recycling when it was clearly labeled. No big deal. I would highly reccommend them again!

This was the second time Vanissar has looked after our home and elderly cat. If she was available every time we needed a sitter she would always be our first choice!

Adventurous retired couple
We had to leave early so the handover was not in person. But they were wonderful about that and since they were experienced sitters took in their stride. Lots of photos, good comments from the nieghbours and I felt very comfortable leaving the doggies with them.

Joanie McMahon
Joanie communicated regularly which gave me complete peace of mind that our cat was in good hands. Our flight was delayed by a day so she came as scheduled and cooked a meal for us the night before we left! Our home was clean upon our return and all was well !

We will take care of your home and pets as if they were ours!
Valeria and Robbie were great house sitters! We met with them ahead of time to meet Boots and Scrappy and to do a walk through of the house and garden. They were great with communication and took great care of our house and pets with the perfect amount of updates to us while we were away. Our house was left so clean and our cats were very happy. I would definitely recommend them and would love to have them back again.

Trustworthy & Experienced Pet Lovers
Charlie and Lu were fantastic, caring, sweet and fun Petsitters. We were sent daily updates with pics of our cats with wonderful messages, they were caring for our flowers and garden and our house was spotless when they left. We couldn’t have asked for better Petsitters/Housesitters and we would love to have them back again anytime. Highly recommend 💕
Marlen was such a blessing. We had another sitter cancel just a week before our vacation date so I was so relieved that she was able to step in at such short notice. She came to meet our pups a few days in advance so they would recognize her. While we were away, Marlen sent picture updates and made sure the dogs were cared for. So glad to have found someone like her to help us out.
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!
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!!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!
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.
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
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.
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!!
