You share - We care
Susie and Gary are a great sitting team! We left them to care for our home and pets for 6 weeks while we went to South America. It was the longest sit we had ever had so we were happy that we felt so comfortable leaving our pets with them. They arrived the day before our departure so that we could acquaint them with our pets, home and property. Our pets include a very senior dog so it was important for us to know that she would be in really good hands. We couldn't have asked for any better care for her and for all of them. Susie and Gary were very much in tune with our old girl and kept us in the loop as to how she was doing. I really have to stress that we were nervous to be leaving her for so long at her advanced age but once we met Susie and Gary, we felt completely comfortable that all would be well and it was! On our return, they met us at the airport with our car and we had a quick lunch and update as they were flying home later that same day. We arrived home and were met by happy and healthy pets and an immaculate house. I know they had to be up very early in the morning to accomplish this due to the time of our flight arrival so we truly appreciated this. We would recommend Susie and Gary in a heartbeat. As happy as our pets were to see us return, I think they are also missing them. They were their people for 6 weeks! These two are real pros at sitting and provide top notch care giving you a worry free vacation. Thank you Susie and Gary!
Gail
Batemans Bay, Australia
Our names are Edward and Gail Egan and we are members of Trusted House Sitters.
Gail & Ed were a lovely couple who travel around Australia in their caravan in which they live full time. Upon return we found the house very clean and Orlagh was very happy.
Marie
Batemans Bay, Australia
Respectful, Responsible, Retired country at heart couple.
Our Housesitters, Marie & Anthony, were THE best sitters we have had over 10 years of using this service They were responsible, reliable, honest, kind, caring and nothing was a problem for them. We had lots of contact initially, which made the “job” very easy to navigate for both parties. At the outset, M&T were quick to adjust to our routine and settled in smoothly, so our pets bonded quickly, which put us at ease. Lots of contact but not too much - we received all the necessary news while away and got updates on the pets, which suited us perfectly. M&T also worked really well with our support people, so everything was taken care of, they even helped my elderly mother when her pet passed suddenly.. We felt much more comfortable being away than we expected to, which is why we have nothing but praise and gratitude for Marie and Anthony. We'd have them back in a heartbeat!

Steve recently house sat for us for a week whilst we visited family in the UK. He agreed to arrive a day earlier than we were leaving in order to familiarise himself with the dogs, their routines and varying needs and the house. The dogs took to him immediately so we were reassured by their reactions. While we were away he kept in contact to let us know how they all were and to ask anything that he wasn't sure about. He walked the younger two every day and let Belle set her own agenda as she does with us. On our return he picked us up in our car from the airport and stayed another night, cooking us our evening meal. The house was clean and tidy just as we had left it and the dogs were happy and contented. Steve was a trustworthy and competent house sitter and we would have no hesitation in recommending him. We didn't meet Andrea on this occasion as she did not come to Europe with him.
Rachel
Batemans Bay, Australia
Qualified vet and teacher looking for furry friends!
Rachel Greg and their lovely daughter Rose did a fantastic job of looking after our dog Bertie and our chickens. I went away knowing that Bertie was in very good hands.
Mel
Batemans Bay, Australia
(Young) Retired Couple on an adventure!
Mel and Jason did an amazing job of looking after our house and animals. We received regular updates on our pets and any issues. We returned to our home in the same way that we left it, clean and tidy. We highly recommend Mel and Jason.
Ruby
Batemans Bay, Australia
Hello! So excited to experience new cultures and meet new people and pets! ❤️
Ruby was honestly a gift! We couldn't have asked for a lovelier, kinder and more caring person to stay with our cats. She is such an incredible human. She completely understood how nervous I was to be leaving my cats and how skittish the one cat is. Her communication was fantastic and I came home to 2 absolutely calm cats. I actually think she was a better influence on them than I am! Our home was SPOTLESS and she even changed the linen for us before we got home! I am devastated that she doesn't live in London and can't watch our cats every time we're away because it's just been such a wonderful experience. The only thing is she didn't eat any of the snacks we left which meant I had to eat a giant bag of crisps when I got home! 😂 Honestly, anyone would be so lucky to have Ruby be at their home. What a lovely person. Thank you Ruby!!!

Overseas veterinarian & engineer couple, experienced and animal-loving !
It was lovely to come home to a relaxed (but excited) dog and to a clean, tidy house. I was especially grateful that the sheets, towels and teatowels were washed and hanging on the line. Thanks Andrea and Gregoire.
carol
Batemans Bay, Australia
Genuine care and love for your pets
Carol was fantastic! Communication with Carol from start to finish was excellent. It was our first time leaving our pets so we were a little nervous. Carol arrived the day before as requested by us and her interaction with the animals really put our minds at ease. Carol updated us regularly and the animals were really happy. We would highly recommend Carol to look after your animals and house. We would have Carol house/animal sit again without any hesitation. Mick and Suzy

Leslie consistently demonstrated outstanding communication skills, both initially and throughout the entire process, and I would gladly give her more stars if possible. Leslie arrived as scheduled, and instantly the animals fell in love with her and Bennie. Our cats love our dogs but usually won't come in the house when a strange dog is here but they didnt even hesitate to come meet Bennie. Bennie was very calm and a true gentleman. Leslie sent pictures throughout the sit reassuring us the gang were all getting along and enjoying her and Bennie's company. She read through the welcome guide before we left as well as we showed her around. It was very nice getting the chance to know her a bit before we ledt the following morning. We felt very comfortable knowing our home and pets were in good hands. It is very apparent when you meet Leslie that she truly does love animals. When our Molly decided to hide, Leslie called us right away because she feared Molly may have gotten spooked by a firework going off in the neighborhood and escaped under the gate. I felt so bad for Leslie because she blamed herself because it was on her watch. I have trackers on all my pets and it turned out that Molly was still in the house and just hiding really well. She can curl up.pretty small. Lealie took our Lab to check the walking route and see if Molly was there. When I called and told her Molly had to be at the house because her tracker showed her there, she returned to our home and Molly hreeted her as she came in the front door. I was very appreciative of Leslie's phone call though because she didnt wait hours to call, she searched the yard and house and called right away. We decided to cut our trip short a day and asked Leslie if she minded if we came home a day early. We let her know we didnt expect her to leave early and made sure she was comfortable with our decision. As a pet parent, it is imperative that we remember the sitters are also on vacation and we didnt want to intrude on her time. As it turned out, we ended up stopping by the ER on our way home where my husband was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. Unfortunately we had both the RV and my car and I needed to figure out how to get them home. I reached out to Leslie who offerred to give me a ride back to the hospital after I dropped o e vehicle off at home so I could retrieve the second vehicle. BTW, the surgeon was able to repair my hubbys aneurysm and he will be coming home soon. Leslie was a comfort during this frightening time and even stayed an extra day to help out and care for our home and pets. She was a teue blessing. Leslie left the house spotless along with so.e fresh flowers for me when I got back from visiting my husband. If you get an opportunity to host Leslie in your home, rest assured your home and pets will be well loved and well taken care of. We.would welcome.Leslie back anytime. She is not just a pet sitter, she is a new trusted friend.

Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!
Ericka
Leah was an excellent pet sitter and take care of our home when we were on vacation. Our dogs were sad when she left. She even made us some delicious tacos when we got home from the airport! We highly recommend her!
Simon
BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!
Suzanne
Melanie and Steve were excellent house & pet sitters. They sent me so many pictures of my 3 cats without me even asking and it made me so happy to see them enjoying their company. I'd say out of all the house sitters I've had, they spent the most time with my cats which means a lot to me. They are kind, easy to connect with and I'd welcome them back anytime. As far as caring for my house - top notch.
Chris
Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. Well done Jacob.
Lynne
Deboraj took great care of the apartment and of our goofy unsociable cat. She went out of her way to bring catnip and make friends with Rowan. She communicated often and cared to be as good a house and pet sitter as could be. I can gladly recommend her highly to anyone else looking. Thank you Deborah.

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith

Neil and Anne have just sat for us for a second time, for a week. They are outstanding sitters in every way. Always punctual with communication and arrival. They both have responsible jobs and this is evident as they are both very organised. They care very much about the animals they look after. We were regularly sent updates, pictures and video clips of them, which is great to see when you are away. When we came home we were greeted by happy pets and an immaculately tidy house. We cannot recommend Neil and Anne enough. As far as we are concerned they are perfect housesitters! …...Hopefully they will come back and sit again soon!
