I enjoyed clear and friendly communication with Astrid before the sit, and prompt messaging in the days running up to the sit, confirming the finer details. I came home to a spotless house and a lovely handover note with exactly the helpful information that I needed. My two cats were calm and relaxed, a sign that they have not been stressed while I've been away. I'm grateful for Astrid's care for the girls and for my home. Thank you Astrid!

We were lucky to have Colin sit our dog Murphy for the second time. Just like the first time, Colin was organised, reliable, friendly and kept in touch throughout the entire sit. Our dog Murphy is a big fan of Colin, and Colin even left Murphy a little gift when he left which Murphy has gobbled up in the days after. Colin sets the bar very high for other sitters, and made us feel very relaxed when on our trip away from Murphy! Hopefully not our last sit with Colin!

We wouldn’t hesitate to ask Sami to housesit again. She was so communicative, organised, friendly and the house was clean when we arrived home with food left for the cats. Thank you Sami!

Thank you Duncan & Lisbeth for being our first housesitters. A new experience for us so was not sure what to expect or do. Minty adored you both, so much so she wanted to leave with you in your car when you left and then sulked for the first 24 hours. Minty was not at all happy to see her mum and dad home who deserted her home again. Things have returned to normal again in our household. Thank you for leaving our home as you found it. We will use this service again, thanks to this lovely couple.

I knew I wanted Florence and her family to sit for us the moment we spoke! The dogs had a great time and did some long walks around Skipton and had plenty of cuddles on the sofa. We were sent photos which is always lovely to see. Liaising with Florence was easy and straightforward from start to finish. Sadly we didn’t get to meet due to timings but I trusted her enough to leave a key and instructions and we were on hand via WhatsApp. I would happily have Florence and her family sit for us again.

Ian and Doreen were excellent dog and home sitters. The dogs and I could not have been more fortunate in having them. They were very understanding when I had to change my dates, They left the house perfect. I felt they were enjoying their time and Bella and Slipper were well groomed and very happy on my return, as was the greenhouse garden and tubs. I was most grateful to them, I hope they may return again.

Courtney and Chris were fabulous with our pets, and there were a few!! 2 dogs, 3 cats and 4 ducks. They coped so well, took the dogs lovely walks and lots of cuddles, and play time. Attended to my spoilt ducks and cats!! They looked after the house, left it clean and tidy and even baked us a banana loaf for our return, how welcoming was that😇Anyone lucky enough to have these guys watch their precious pets will know they can relax and enjoy a break away. Thank you Courtney and Chris🙋‍♀️❤️

Valerie and Brian are a lovely couple who came to look after our home and pets in a cold wet January. They were calm and friendly and the animals got on very well with them as soon as they met them. The house was left in a very clean and tidy state and Brian even fixed a dripping tap ! The plants had been watered and everyone seemed happy. Our oldest dog had a funny turn and Brian took her to the vets , contacted us and kept us fully informed about her recovery. We would be very happy for them to come again. Excellent house sitters.

Issy did a great job looking after our house and the Guinea Pigs. The house was immaculate when we returned. Unfortunately our beloved dog Karla passed away just days before Issy came but Issy still committed to the sit and all was good. Thanks Issy!

Gillian has been to sit for us before and it was really wonderful to see her again ! She looked after 2 of our dogs and they loved seeing her, especially Nelly who remembered her as soon as she arrived . Pi our other dog is still quite young and so it was a relief to have someone who knows young dogs and to be so kind and patient with him , even keeping up his heel work which was very helpful as we were away for quite a while. Gillian is so brilliant with communication and when there were any problems she was fantastic at keeping us updated and sorting everything out. I was really glad she was there and most grateful. We really hope she will come again Nelly and Pi would be thrilled to see her and so would we.

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

Cindy is an absolutely fantastic sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her care for our dog and our home whilst we went on our family holiday. Her communication before and throughout our sit was fantastic, and she even took our dog to the vet when he needed an unexpected checkup. She took great care of him and sent daily updates including videos and photos of their time together. We could tell that he felt very relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Cindy - it is a real godsend to have someone so kind and caring to take care of your pets and home and we would be delighted to have Cindy back again in future.

Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)!  She was responsible,  self sufficient and very responsive.  She took the time to come meet our dog  ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip.  She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away.  She was extremely clean and followed our household routine.  And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe!  Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met.  I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!

Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house  and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy  when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.

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!

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!

We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. 

Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth.

We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. 

Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.

The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

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.
