I really appreciate Sarah and Scott as my zeewoi! They are great people and do a great job taking care of not only the pets, but the house as well! This is my second time to use them and would be very comfortable using them everytime I go somewhere.

Margery drove 1/3 of the way across the country to spend 10 days in Philadelphia with our 1 year old cat. She was incredibly flexible to our holiday travel schedule, and kept in good communication about how everything was going. Not only did we come home to a happy cat and a clean apartment, but she had washed and made our bed so it would be ready for us when we got home! We got more than we bargained for with Margery. Would recommend and use again.

Mary was the perfect house/pet sitter. She took great care of Talula and our house. She was calm and resourceful when needed and seemed to have really bonded with our dog. Talula was happy and fit when we returned after 2 months. Mary left the house super clean, texted/emailed us as necessary, and sent pictures of the dog — all much appreciated. We couldn’t recommend Mary highly enough. Faith and Eric

Alexie and Nick are excellent house and pet sitters! They are very reliable and personable, and had good communication before and during their sit of our corgi, Augie. Our home was spotless when we returned and Augie was very relaxed and happy. Our schedules did not allow us to meet before their sit and they were able to enter our home sight unseen, find their room and Augie's food bowl and kibble, and follow home & pet care instructions independently. They invested time ahead of their visit to read our Welcome Guide and ask us questions in advance. I highly recommend these sitters!

Connie and Marty did a great job with little direction. Remi and the house fared well under their watch. Only sorry we didn’t get to spend more time together before we left or upon our return. Recommend 👍

Alice and Joe were fantastic dogsitters that we highly recommend and plan to use again! They were great with communication and prompt in their arrival. They took excellent care of our Husky who is getting older and requires some extra love. I could tell that our dog was loving every minute by the big smile on her face in the pictures sent by Alice. We arrived home to find the house sparkling clean plus Alice had left us with homemade chicken noodle soup, chocolate chip cookies and hand knitted slippers! They truly went above and beyond. We appreciate their care and willingness to go the extra mile!

Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend

My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.

Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. 

I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!

I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day.  I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.

Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!

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.

Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.

Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. 
Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!

Angela was fantastic.  She came a day early to meet us and our dog Bella and to get the lay of the land and we so enjoyed meeting her and getting to know her!  She took care of our home and Bella with the utmost care and attention.  She was great to communicate with throughout the sit and we felt confidant being away knowing our dog and home were in such good hands! We returned to a clean house and she even prepared dinner for us!  It was clear that Bella was happy, well taken care of and very fond of her!!  We would definitely recommend Angela.  She was a reliable sitter and a delightful person all around!!

Veronica House sat for us for a month.  She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat.

Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals.  They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them.

When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe,  she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity.  She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks.  This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy.

A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in.
 
Our cat was so content and well-groomed​ upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention,  too.

Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day.

I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home.

We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.
