This is the 4th time Miriam has looked after our dog, Charlie, during the past year and each time he welcomes her as an old friend. She is totally reliable and practical which means we can go away without any concerns in the knowledge that she will care for the house and Charlie as we would ourselves. We would welcome her back any time. An excellent housesitter - recommended without hesitation.

Samantha and Gareth are super house sitters and a fun loving very reliable couple. We couldn’t have asked for better. The cats were in tip top condition as was house when they left. A pleasure to meet and we hope they come back again.

This is the second time that Gary and Yvonne have house sat for us and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. We have found them reliable with good communication prior to and during the house sit. The property is clean, tidy and well looked after when we return, as are the animals (cat, chickens, sheep). Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are both great company too. Thank you both once again.

Xanthe and Felix looked after our Border Collie, birds, guinea pig and chooks for the weekend and were brilliant! Super easy to communicate with and offered brief updates throughout their stay. Whilst we didn't meet them in person we were grateful for their attention to our pets! We wish them both well on the future travels :)

Diego and Paola are a lovely couple. They had great communications both before and during the sit. They went out of their way to arrive after a long drive when we needed them and took very good care of the house and the animals. Would definitely use again.

Cat was the perfect house sitter. We were absolutely confident leaving our home and dog in her care. She is delightful to deal with, adored our Labrador Alfie (who is still missing her endless cuddles and long walks on Wimbledon Common), kept our house immaculate and was a very calm head in a mini-crisis. We would welcome her back into our home in a heartbeat.

Maggie was a dream house and pet sitter. Our original sitter let us down at the last minute so it was a frantic search to find someone else to fill the gap. She was a very lucky find for us. Nothing was too much trouble for Maggie. I left her a pile of instructions, as I am a very fussy home owner and I must say, the house was pristine when we got home. Maggie sent regular pictures & updates on Jock, who from what I can gather, was more than happy with the arrangement! I would thoroughly recommend Maggie for any future house-sits. We had no problem entrusting her to our new home and crazy little dog.

Michele is a great pet sitter for my dog Charley!  She keeps me informed and sends pictures.  I came home to an immaculate home!  I hope she will come back again.

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.

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.

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 welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.

If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would!  They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee!  It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for!  They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!

If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!

Charlie was again an outstanding sitter for us whilst we were away at a wedding. This is the second time having Charlie and although we have not met face to face we completely trust her with our home and of course our cat, Nala. Charlie left the house spotless which is amazing to come home to after a long day of travelling. She is reliable, good at communicating and trustworthy and we would not hesitate to recommend her enough. Thanks again Charlie, we hope you come back again and there might even be a dog next time😁

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!!
