Abhaya was an exceptional pet sitter for my cat Athena. She is experienced, friendly, and a great communicator. Abhaya sent pictures and updates every day and it was evident she played and cuddled with Athena. When I returned it was evident that Athena was very emotionally and physically well cared for. Abhaya left the house clean, tidy and in perfect shape. I will definitely use Abhaya every time she is available when I travel. Abhaya is a trustworthy pet-sitter and a very kind person. I recommend her most highly.

Another great sit! No pets this is time, just our house. They took care of everything while we were away on an extended trip. The yard, exterior living spaces and interior spaces were so clean, it was like walking into a new house. They texted us re: issues that arise that they worked around, but wanted us to be aware. We trust them to take care of our home as we would and they deliver!

We were lucky to be able to meet her before the sit and was great to see her interact with our pup Miso, she didn’t blink an eye at Miso’s high energy. Sue’s communication was great both before and throughout the sit, she sent photo updates and a quick question, and we felt reassured while away. The house was the same as we left it. We’d easily recommend Sue, she’s very sweet and took great care of our pup!

I don’t want to leave anything too positive, because we don’t want to share Nicole. ☺️ This was our 5th time to use “Aunt” Nicole. We adopted her as our Aunt, because she is so full of wonderful and amazing tips and suggestions. She absolutely loves and cares for our two special kitties, as if they were her own. And they love her as much as we do!!! Looking forward to having her return this coming weekend.

Mattho was super communicative, thoughtful and took really good care of George and Fendi. We were going out on a staycation in the city for a couple of days so we weren’t too far from home, however we’re really comforted by how thoughtful Mattho was in his communication and updates. George really warmed to him quickly - Fendi was a little shy but would have warmed up with more time. We received photos regularly and Mattho left the apartment super clean with a lovely card and some delicious leftovers from local restaurants. Highly recommend him!

Frank and Patty were initially our choice for a sit that was to have happened two years ago, but a hurricane caused that trip to cancel. They were available for a trip fortunately and we were excited to have them. They are a couple that seems to enjoy adventure and trying new lifestyles, having lived on a sailboat in the Caribbean and now living on a large trawler houseboat between sits. I wish we'd had more time to hear their stories because it sounds fascinating! They were very flexible and able to arrive the night before we left so we could introduce them to our house and property, and give them the details of the dogs routines. They kept us informed of everything during our trip. When we returned, the house was cleaner than when we left! They went above and beyond by even doing the laundry AND making the bed! I could not have asked for better sitters- the dogs clearly were well kept and happy, and barely noticed that we were gone I suspect. I am so glad we were finally able to have them sit for us and wouldn't hesitate to invite them again.

Nicole was a great housesitter and pet care provider. The house looked cleaner when we came back from our trip then before we left. They washed their own sheets and even folded and put away towels. I couldn’t believe it. They were great with our two doggies as well. They kept us updated with them and sent some pictures too.

What is the absolutely WORST thing that can happen? Your pets abandoned, with zero notice and the inability to get the "sitter" to respond to inquiries about your pets' status while you're in Hawaii panicking about your pets in California. Then, when you're able to get a friend to check on the status of your home and pets (because Claudia would not respond to me), you find that your house has been left wide open and unlocked. There was also a general lack of attention to the pets. She sent me a photo of my cat and asked me "who is this one". The cat in the photo was the cat she was supposed to be caring for. I found out she locked my cat out and let a stray in, instead. When I inquired further, I didn't hear anything for more than 24 hours despite reach out out a couple of times. Okay - but what about her side of the story? Claudia had a legitimate gripe, the cats were keeping her up at night because of an unusual situation: We've recently had to keep the cats inside at night because we had a problem with a skunk. The cats wanted to go in/out at will as they were accustomed to. I think the big, festering problem is that she didn't alert me to any of this until after 3 nights. My IMMEDIATE response to Claudia upon learning this was: "Oh, no. What a nightmare!! I am so sorry!! Let me try to think of a solution. Is the problem with both cats, or just Bing Bing" and "Wow - that is not okay!! What can I do? If I have someone take your place, is that better for you?" I also offered to have my daughter pick up the offending cat so that Claudia could finish her stay, if that's what she preferred. Note: the words in quotations are exact quotes of my messages. I was willing to stop everything to deal with Claudia's concerns immediately and do just about anything that would have made her happy. I even told her she could leave the cats for a few days (she lives less than 2 hours away) if she needed a break. Claudia also found the internet not fast enough. This is something we explicitly discussed before the sit - I had recently noticed that the internet had been less consistent than a few months ago. Claudia assured me that she understood and has an "amplifier" to plug into the wall that would be enough. When it wasn't, and she let me know, within MINUTES of learning this, I was on the phone to Verizon - I thought I had the fastest service, but apparently they changed things (which explains why I noticed a slowdown) and there was now faster service, so I increased it immediately. [For any potential future pet sitters, there is a simple "speed test" I can do that will measure the exact upload/download speed. She thought there was an issue with the washer/dryer, but that turned out to be user error. The power went out one time for 40 minutes. This is, unfortunately, not uncommon in California during fire season. Thankfully it's usually brief. I have found my laptop battery to be sufficient to manage the brief gap. Cell towers have generator backup, so wifi/cellular coverage is uninterrupted. I am heartbroken that this sit ended this way. Heartbroken because it sucked for everyone involved but could have so easily been avoided by simple communication from Claudia. I have had friends and neighbors petsit with no problems. I have Airbnb'd my house with a 4.97* cumulative rating. If only Claudia had simply reached out, I would have accommodated her in just about any way possible. Instead, she stayed silent, then would not even acknowledge the remedies I suggested and abandoned my pets, instead.

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.

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.

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!

We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. 
We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida!
Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. 
We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. 
We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover

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.

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

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!

Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. 

From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously.

They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. 

In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.

Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used.  My husky LOVES her.  Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly.  She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia.  She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. 
Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed.  She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
