Dog Sitting in Nichols

Alexandra and Colin were simply amazing. They were super well organized, very tidy, clean and respectful regarding our home and communicated extremely promptly. If they were not sure about anything, they would always ask back to get our confirmation, which increased our trust in them by the day. They sent us the most beautiful and funny cat pictures/videos and update messages on a daily basis; it was as if we had never left our cats at home - we knew about everything they were up to. When we got home, Alexandra had even left us a mini-diary about all the little cat adventures. How fantastic is that? You can really tell that Alexandra and Colin loved our two cats Milou and Lola. The cats were deeply relaxed and at ease when we got home, they looked well groomed and super happy. Our sitters left our home in a perfect state, they even washed the bath towels and bed linen. I absolutely recommend Alexandra and Colin as sitters. They are most welcome to come back any time. Thank you for everything, it was a great pleasure to have you with us and share a few cat moments with you!

Jenny had great communication before and after the sit. She sent pictures and asked questions when needed. Our pup can be finicky and she worked hard to help him get comfortable while we were gone. We would have her again!

Charlie was our first zeewoi petsitter, and he was amazing! He's a very personable and friendly person who obviously cares greatly for animals. We were gone for almost 2 months, so this was a long sit. He took care of our two cats and dog. Charlie sent us TONS of updates and photos and the animals always looked happy and well cared for. He left the house tidy and promptly brought up any concerns regarding the animals or household issues. We had a little health scare with one of the cats while we Charlie was there, and he handled the situation perfectly - he told us about it right away and brought the cat to the vet. Don't hesitate to use Charlie as a pet/house sitter. The animals miss him already!

Tracy spent almost 2 weeks at my house with Charlie. Tracy asked how often I liked communication (I am a picture once a day kind of Mom). She sent photos and updates as requested, walked her regularly (my neighbors love to see Charlie, so they were happy for that) and was a wonderful surrogate Mom for my Charlie Girl. I could tell as soon as ai arrived home that Charlie totally bonded with Tracy. That is the most important thing g

Dustin watched my two kitties for about a month. One of my kitties usually doesn’t like men, so I was a bit nervous. But in less than 24 hours Dustin had won his heart and he was very comfortable (proof was in the photos). That made me super happy. Every time I asked Dustin for proof of life photos he sent them. The house was extremely clean when I arrived home. When I returned, my cats were very happy so I know he spent a lot of time with them.

Hannah and Noel were great at looking after Orwell while we were away. We were away for 2 weeks, and over that time, we were filled with confidence that they could take care of anything that may arise at the house. Orwell had recently had a minor op, and they administered medication alongside his normal routine. We also had regular updates while we were away. Hannah and Noel also had to deal with an emergency locksmith situation due to a broken lock. We are really grateful they got this sorted while we were away without bothering us on our holiday. I would recommend Hannah and Noel to Housesitter’s anytime.

Nathan and Linda are wonderful. You can tell they truly care about and love the animals they take care of, even if it’s for a short period of time. The house looked untouched and they kept everything very cleans. My pups were super happy & content boys. Shortly after their stay, one of my dogs had a medical emergency (nothing related to their care) and they were able to provide a very detailed history of his behavior and habits while we were away in a super timely manner. I would 100% trust them to care for your precious babies.

This was our first time using a house sitter and I think we have been spoiled. Norm and Nancy sat our place and animals, (4 dogs, 4 ducks, and 7 rabbits) During and arctic freeze and several heavy snowstorms. They took excellent care of our animals and home despite the severe winter conditions. They have a very professional approach and left our house as we left it if not better. Our Dogs missed them after they left and while we were away we enjoyed Nancy's daily blog about our animals. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our animals were being taking care of the way we would. Nancy, being a nurse practitioner, took special care of our old dog that required medicine and special treatment. We were nervous about leaving him until we met Norm and Nancy. We are interested in house sitting someday and they are perfect role models to follow.

Past house sitters have found my dog Wilbur to be enjoyable to care for, however I recognize that not all pets and humans bond. I sensed that Brian did not really spend much time engaging with my dog. Wilbur had a sore eye filled with matter when I returned and Brian either didn’t notice or didn’t care to inform me of this. I had asked my son to come over for the final feeding/potty of Wilbur so Brian could leave early due to poor weather. My son misunderstood and came over a day early and notified me of Wilburs eye problem. Despite being there another day Brian did not inform me of the eye problem. The house had sticky dirty countertops in the kitchen and bathroom - linens were not laundered or changed out. Brian left items in the house, so overall not a great sit.

Katie helped make sure my house was taken care of during the winter, while I traveled. Thank you, Katie!
