Julia was awesome. She took very good care of our little fur babies and sent us an update every other day. When we got home the house looked great and the pups well cared for. Julia even picked us up from the airport which was extra nice! I highly recommend her to take care of your home and pets.

Caitlin and Lawrence were great! They were able to come over the day before we left and we had dinner together and we were able to get to know them even more and show them everything they needed to know about Clara and our home. They sent us lovely pictures of Clara enjoying her time while we were away. When we got back the house was super clean and they left us a nice plant to start our garden with this summer. We would definitely have them in our home again.

Kinsey stayed with our 2 cats and home for almost a month. She is an excellent communicator and checked in with us before our trip about how often we wanted updates about our cats and our home. Within a day of departure, we received pictures of our cats warming up to her :) Kinsey is organized, responsible and very clean. She is so thoughtful too! We arrived home to a lovely note and some very sweet homecoming goodies. Most importantly, our apartment was clean and our cats were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kinsey for your next housesit! She is awesome!

Barbara was an excellent house and cat sitter. Communication with her from the word go was straightforward, and easy and it was clear that she would be completely self sufficient and confident in managing the travelling to the island, and caring for Stan and the house. She stayed in touch throughout her stay and I felt calm and confident that all was well with my beloved cat and home, and even updated me on the welfare of some of the street cats that I feed. If Barbara applies for a sit for you, then you can have every confidence that she is more than 100% reliable and will do an excellent job!

Lacey and Jay were such an amazing house sitters and pet care takers to my 10 year old cat, Bane. I cannot recommend them enough for future house-sits, they were supremely responsible, understanding to my house's quirks, responsive and gave great updates, thoughtful, organized, and very clean! I am so grateful to both Lacey and Jay for allowing my trip to Scotland to be as fun as possible, as I didn't worry about a thing with them at the helm back home. Many thanks to you both!

Sam and Rachel were excellent house and dog sitters for us and we would welcome them back anytime. Their communication was absolutely 5 stars before and during the sit, and their care of Diesel is 6+ stars! They sent updates periodically thru text and had cute photos of Diesel too. Really appreciate the house was clean and in pristine condition, and though we don't require linens to be laundered it was great to have that all done when we arrived. Wonderful people, and highly recommend them as sitters.

Jess and Parker took care of our golden retriever, Max over Thanksgiving. They took great care of both him and the house. Jess was a great communicator leading up to the sit. Parker took Max for long runs and even took him to the beach! The house was just as clean (if not cleaner) than how we left it. Max was happy and tired when we came home!

If I could give them more stars, I would! Just the loveliest family and a pleasure to know them. They left the house EMBARRASSINGLY clean! I didn't even know the floors could shine! Isla and Bobo were so relaxed and obviously we're extremely well looked after. They communicated well and were just a delight. I do hope we keep in touch as they are welcome back to stay as friends anytime.

Janis and her husband Dan were beyond phenomenal! Communication was great leading up to their arrival, especially with coordinating arrival and departure times. And during the sit, I got lots of picture updates throughout of how Isabel was doing. I could tell from the pictures how comfortable and happy my dog was hanging out with Janis and Dan and getting all the pets and attention. Coming home, everything was left so clean and organized. I definitely recommend them as pet sitters as they clearly took such good care of both my pup and my home.

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.

Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.

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 : )

Carolina was a fantastic Pet sitter. From the beginning, it was straightforward to communicate with her. She met us before we left our trip and ensured she understood all the house and pet logistics. Luna and Cal were very comfortable with her and were best friends with her fast. She was very affectionate with them, and Luna and Cal loved her and were very happy with her. Carolina was very responsive and sent updates. She was really lovely and easy to communicate with. She was very respectful of our space and very tidy. She even washed the sheets and towels she used even when she didn’t need to. She put a lot of care into caring for Luna and Cal, and they looked very comfortable with her. Having Carolina as a pet sitter made our trip very easy, knowing our pets were cared for so well. We would love to have her back to sit for us again and highly recommend her.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith!

I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away.

Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable.

In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture.

I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

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.

Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month.  I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!

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!

Elaine was a welcomed sitter for Cyrus and Purrelli. I returned from holiday to find a very content relaxed dog and a happy fat cat. Purrelli doesn’t eat when he is stressed so seeing a little meat on him let me know he was content and happy :) My condo was left clean and in order, all communications were smooth and there was zero issues. Thx for the great pet care Elaine.
