2 digital nomad animal lovers!
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!

Happy to Help!
This was Lelsie and Darryl's fourth time caring for our home and pets and they were great as usual. They got Cooper to and from the vet quickly when he unexpectedly needed care. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our home was in good hands.

Former educator seeks travel and furbabies to spoil!
April was awesome! She connected very quickly with the dogs and had a good read on each of their characters. She spent quality time with the cat and tended to her lovingly. Rio and Bijou both had last minute medication regimes to which she responded well to the directions of how to give their meds. She sent photos daily, and really, we felt that our beloved pets and home were safely and lovingly well tended. We look forward to having her back in our home!

Travel peacefully:) You are in good hands with us!
Carrie and Ben and the dog Crumley were absolutely wonderful. We immediately felt at ease with them and our dog Bella and Crumley became best buddies. We are looking forward to their coming back if their schedules permit.

I want to provide the trustworthy care your home and animal companions deserve.
M was a wonderful sitter for our pets, plants, and home! They were very communicative and so patient and loving with our babies. We would welcome them back anytime!

30 & 33 year old married couple looking for time with animals & a friendly home!
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.

Professor of Philosophy who loves caring for animals and traveling.
Megan was INCREDIBLE. We were so worried leaving our cat and dog whilst away for 2 weeks getting married abroad but as soon as we met Megan, all of our worries went away. She is such a kind, lovely person who is amazing with pets. She kept us updated every day with pictures and brought our dog Odie on adventures to places I haven’t even been to yet!! I hope to have Megan stay with us again, not even as a house sitter but as a friend.
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
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.
Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had. She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.
Annabella was a fantastic, trustworthy dog sitter for our three pups. She was very responsible and did everything we asked of her and communicated well.
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.
Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.
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!!
Alia is awesome and we have used her several times. She is a 5 star rated sitter every time. The dogs are happy and the house is perfect when we get home. She even cooked dinner for our arrival home because we came home late. Highly recommend Alia!!
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.
