Sharon
Toowong, Australia
Great with all animals. Reliable, caring and professional couple.
When Sharon and Al expressed interest in pet sitting for us we carefully considered previous reviews. One comment resonated for us - if Sharon and Al apply to sit for you then snap them up quickly as you won’t do better. We are very pleased to confirm that this was exactly the case for us. We came home from a 6 week holiday in Europe to find an immaculate house and yard and more importantly a very happy dog. Al even cooked a brilliant lamb Rogan Josh dinner and they baked us a delicious cake. We left our second car for them to use and Al had detailed it for us and returned it with a full tank of fuel. We have nothing but praise for Sharon for Al and consider that we have now made new friends. Sharon and Al are our best house sitters we have experienced.

Cat lovers
We were absolutely delighted to meet and have Del and Christopher care for Izzy, the fish and our home whilst we were away. They stayed in touch. Our home was exactly as it was when we left and most importantly our Izzy was happy and not stressed when we arrived home. I’d have these guys back in a heartbeat! Thank you again
Tom
Toowong, Australia
Trustworthy, friendly and reliable pet lovers
Jackie and Tom were exceptional! They came a day early to meet the pets and grab the house key - and ever so kindly washed the bedsheets (and remade the bed) and towels at the end of their sit. I felt good knowing my pets were in good hands -- 1000000% recommend Jackie and Tom to any pet parent.

Edward
Toowong, Australia
Energetic, Caring & Reliable Aussie Couple
This was a first time for me and Max and I am so happy that we were fortunate enough to have Edward and Anne to look after Max and my home. They exceeded my expectations, and looked after Max so well. He went to the beach daily, plus the dog park and had numerous walks. Edward and Anne were aware that I have had difficulty restraining Max if he sees a bush turkey, whilst we are walking. Their videos clearly show Max on lead and close to bush turkeys, being guided by Edward to remain calm and not attempt to chase them. This is a great help to me, plus the beach adventures and his obvious pleasure at running into the waves has encouraged me to keep this activity up. So life and exercise for Max, and me has extended beyond the dog park. Their videos of the beach trips showed Max also had a hose down at home, and a towelling dry, Max was never keen on a hose down but he doesn't mind now. In addition to all this Max was also exposed to visiting the local shops, and dealing with bikes and scooters , again he reacted well, obviously feeling safe in Edward and Anne's company. I returned home to a very happy Max and a spotless home and garden. We were blessed to have such a wonderful couple, I hope we will be fortunate enough to have Edward and Anne here again. Thank you both, I was able to enjoy my holiday and Max had the best time as well. He was loved and cared for with plenty of pats and cuddles .
Robi
Toowong, Australia
TRUSTED CARE WHEN YOU CAN’T BE THERE - 150 SITS AND COUNTING!
Robi and Stewart were a wonderful couple who looked after our Jassy with such care. They looked after our home and sent us lots of fun photos of her while we were away. I would definitely ask Robi and Stewart to come back again and would recommend these very professional sitters to anyone.

Jan and Rod have become firm friends of ours, they have sat for us a number of times over the past few years. They are charming, friendly people and we know we are leaving our ponies and dogs in very caring responsible hands. We look forward to them returning next year, and keep in touch during the year. 5 🤩sitters Fiona

Trustworthy and Compassionate Housesitter: Your Pets Deserve the Best Care.
Jessie took really great care of our 3 cats. They seemed very relaxed and at ease when we returned home (normally they’re more anxious and skittish). She also occasionally sent photos and updates which was always really nice to receive. It seems there was some good cuddling had :)
Reviews from Dog Owners
Wendy & Rob
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.

Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!

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.
Nicole
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!!

Lisa was an excellent pet sitter for our dogs Willa and Kato. She was attentive to their needs, administered medications, dealt with Kato’s unexpected ear problem and made sure they both were able to follow their daily routines and get plenty of exercise. It was quite obvious when we returned home that the three had bonded with each other and we know they will enjoy future sits already scheduled with Lisa. She was great about sending photos and updates while we were traveling, and it was a joy to come home to an immaculate house and thriving houseplants! We highly recommend Lisa as an extremely reliable, caring and self-sufficient pet sitter!

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets 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!

Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.

I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.
