Lesley was fantastic and looked after our house and pets perfectly. The house was immaculate on our return and the dogs both really happy - they'd obviously had a great time and were very happy around her. We would highly recommend!

Colleen and Adrian were amazing. They were so caring when our poor cat became very ill and really went above and beyond to care of him. They looked after our home beautifully and kept us informed and up to date. We can't thank them enough.

Glynis and Alan are fabulous house sitters and I would rebook them in a heartbeat for my next trip if they were not otherwise engaged. My cat was unwell during the sit and they took great care of her , visiting the vet and managing the medication she needed etc. they engaged with Charley and Louie who were very happy campers when we arrived home. They kept in communication with us via WhatsApp sending updates with photos and videos which made us very comfortable during our trip. The house and garden were also very clean and tidy. Highly recommend them even though this probably means it will be a challenge to book them again ! Thanks again Glynis and Alan.

I loved having Raeline & Terry pet sit for us. Both were friendly and great to communicate with. We received updates and photos of our pets weekly. If their were any concerns they would contact me immediately. It was a pleasure to come home to a clean tidy home and contented pets. We would recommend Raeline & Terry to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter. Thank you so much to both of you!!

Valeria and Kevin were amazing. They looked after our two dogs and two cats exceptionally well - lots of photos and I never had any doubts about the care of the animals for 5 weeks. They were easy going and completely self sufficient, honest and reliable. House was perfect. Highly recommend their help!

I don't even know where to start. Alana and Jason were simply amazing during a house sit that, well, could have gone better (on my part!). This was my first time choosing sitters that had to travel from overseas, and I was a bit reluctant at first, but the fact that they had previous experience with greyhounds, plus a very reassuring video call made me decide that they were worth it. And boy was I right! They were great at communicating beforehand and letting me know when they had arrived in NZ and what they were up to on their trip while they made their way towards Wellington. Met them in person the morning I was leaving and I left feeling pretty confident that the girls were in good hands. But then a week into my trip I had a sudden change of plans and had to return home a week early. They were super understanding and flexible and I was happy for them to stay. But then the day after returning I tested positive for covid so that threw another spanner in the works. I offered to isolate in my room so they could stay, and in exchange they took care of the girls and even cooked for me! They honestly were incredibly helpful and super nice to be around. Very quiet, respectful and took great care of the girls, plus they cleaned after themselves and even weeded the garden! Absolute legends in a not so straightforward sit. I would ask them to sit again in a heartbeat!

Russ sat for us for 10 days while we were on holiday, looking after our cat, Ella. He came to see us before the sit so we could show him around and he was easy to get along with. He arrived on time and kept the house and garden in good order while he was here. His communication was ok and he sent us some pictures of Ella once asked. The only thing which marred the experience was when we arrived home, we found old food and mould in the cat food bowl which suggested that it hadn't been cleaned regularly enough.

Another amazing sit by Anna and her lovely family - our cocker spaniel Holly has had the best fortnight with these guys with lots of adventures and endless amounts of love and attention!
Highly recommend as 5-star house and pet sitters - thank you Anna - hope to see you again!

Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency  and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.

Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month.  I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did.  Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why.   Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her.  I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love.   Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her).  She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants.  We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup.    Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet.  Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs.  I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁

We've had many pet sitters over the years (this is our first time using this app) and Missy is the best sitter we've ever had for our dog and cats. Our pets, particularly our dog, adored her and was really sad to see her go. It is obvious she loves animals and immediately understood the pack dynamics and the pet personalities. She kept the house tidy, litter box clean, and the animals so well loved.  
Because she was traveling from far away, she stayed with us the night before our trip and the night we came back. It was a pleasure to get to know her. We would welcome her back to our house as a friend or a sitter anytime. Highly recommend!

I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!

Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.

Farhan is a fantastic house sitter! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a down-to-earth, kind, and caring pet sitter for their home. We have three small dogs (around 6 lbs) and he took excellent care of them. They can be a little nervous/ timid around new people, and more so around men at times, but the dogs didn't show any of that nervousness around Farhan! He was gentle and respectful of their space and they warmed up to him immediately. I got a wonderful text the first morning that I was away that they cuddled up with him at night - showing how quickly they adjusted to him as their caretaker. I was able to meet Farhan in person before I left on my trip and I was able to have a wonderful conversation with an ambitious explorer. He is a delightful person. Upon my homecoming the house was very clean and the dogs were happy and relaxed. I can't ask for anything more! Thank you Farhan for taking such wonderful care of our three dogs and our home.

Gowri was very patient and caring with Irisi who got sick the day before I left.  I cannot commend her enough for how she rose to the occasion and took care of my baby.  She even pick up meds from the vet.  My cat, Squinty, was very comfortable with her to jump in bed and wake her up early in the morning (as he would with me).  I am not aware of him doing that to other sitters that have stayed at my place.   I would give her 6 stars for Pet care if I can!  She updated me with Irisi's condition which really help ease my mind, knowing someone looking after my furry really cared.   I would certainly have her back again!
