We had just Sara stay to look after Mila our large German shep. Mila can be quite anxious but Sara really knew how to handle her :) Unfortunately we were delayed getting home and thankfully She was flexible enough and stayed an extra night to make sure Mila was cared for. It really took the stress off the situation! Sara and Mila got a long very well and it seemed she had a real soft spot for her. The house was left tidy and clean. Thanks so much Sara!!

Sarah was such a gem! My pup Rhu was so well taken care of while I was away - lots of cuddles and exploring the city. My home was left cleaner than when I left. Can’t wait to have her back again!

I really appreciate Sarah and Scott as my zeewoi! They are great people and do a great job taking care of not only the pets, but the house as well! This is my second time to use them and would be very comfortable using them everytime I go somewhere.

It was so great having Lynn as a dogsitter for my two fur babies! The dogs obviously adored her, and she was very self-sufficient and allowed me to enjoy an extremely relaxed vacation! Also, I had to convince her that she REALLY DIDN'T have to clean every part of the house before she left--THAT'S how considerate she is!

Trisha was fantastic and took great care of our Boogie. When we came home our house was spotless and Boogie was very content. We would love it if she ever came back again!

Connie and Marty did a great job with little direction. Remi and the house fared well under their watch. Only sorry we didn’t get to spend more time together before we left or upon our return. Recommend 👍

Alexie and Nick are excellent house and pet sitters! They are very reliable and personable, and had good communication before and during their sit of our corgi, Augie. Our home was spotless when we returned and Augie was very relaxed and happy. Our schedules did not allow us to meet before their sit and they were able to enter our home sight unseen, find their room and Augie's food bowl and kibble, and follow home & pet care instructions independently. They invested time ahead of their visit to read our Welcome Guide and ask us questions in advance. I highly recommend these sitters!

Alice and Joe were fantastic dogsitters that we highly recommend and plan to use again! They were great with communication and prompt in their arrival. They took excellent care of our Husky who is getting older and requires some extra love. I could tell that our dog was loving every minute by the big smile on her face in the pictures sent by Alice. We arrived home to find the house sparkling clean plus Alice had left us with homemade chicken noodle soup, chocolate chip cookies and hand knitted slippers! They truly went above and beyond. We appreciate their care and willingness to go the extra mile!

Amanda was the perfect housesitter and pet sitter for our cat. She is organized and communicative, and took care to ensure she understood the guidelines for taking care of our home and our cat. She left our house in perfect condition and we returned home to one happy kitty! Would not hesitate to have Amanda housesit for us again or recommend her to others looking for a sitter.

Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden.  The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom.  Already scheduled a second sit!  If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

Sharon was a fantastic sitter for our week away! She left the house as tidy and clean as we left it, including changing the sheets for our arrival. I truly cannot even tell she was here and that made coming home after a long travel day so much easier.

She was communicative every step of the way and provided daily updates on our cat with photos. We knew our home and pet were in good hands! I would gladly welcome Sharon back any time should we be so lucky : )

Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)

Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.

Davis and Sydney were loving sitters for our pets.  We even had an extra cat (our son's) and they took great care of all of the pets and our home.  The pictures and the comments they sent  showed us they figured out all of their quirky personalities very fast. It was nice to come home to a clean house and all pets  were safe and happy! We would ask them back again.

Kuldip exceeded all the expectations we had from a Zeewoi. She took over from another sitter when we got stuck out of country due to a family emergency. A highly energetic person yet extremely organized, she easily matched the energy level of my 2-year-old Border Collie Pavo. She not only exercised him multiple times every day, but even him bought him new doggy toys and treats (much appreciated!). She got along very well with our neighbor and with their combined help Pavo got a much needed doggy bath!  With her by my dogs side we were worry-free and able to focus on our family needs.  

Lastly, she left a pleasant surprise when we came back home. Our home looked squeaky clean and beautifully organized. Kuldip is a gem of a pet sitter and we would love to have her back for our fur baby without any hesitation. I highly recommend her!

Mikala & Jake were great house & pet sitters for us!! Our dog and two cats absolutely adored them, and we came back to a very clean home with happy animals :) They were very reliable and fast communicators. They even had to deal with our power going out while we were away, and they handled it well. It eased our minds to know our animals and house were in such great care while we were away and would have them sit for us anytime!

Anna was the perfect sitter for Tali, Mac and Sox. From the first moment we met Anna we all got on extremely well and we had no worries about leaving our pets in her safe hands. Anna gave them loads of fun time and company, lovely walks and snuggles in front  of the TV. Thanks for all the fun we had before and after the sit too. We would not hesitate to recommend Anna for any sit.

Angela and Joe are wonderful house and pet sitters sitters in every way.  They have a great loving way with animals and my shy dog warmed up to them right away. They are warm, organized, confident, and thorough.  They communicated very well and gave me frequent updates and sweet photos of my dog Chica.  They also took excellent care of my home.    My only regret was that I didn't get to spend more time with them, because they're such lovely and interesting people.
I give Angela and Joe my highest recommendation and feel that anyone would be very lucky to have them their sitters! I hope that they return to sit here again.
