What a blessing meeting and getting to know Kevin and Cindy. I hope they will want to return to care for Gracie and allow us to enjoy their company.

This is the second time Randy has sit for us because Rex, Bob and I appreciate him so much. Randy is family. He is like the dog whisperer. The last sit was in our home. This sit was in the apartment we now reside in. He didn't panic adapting to security doors that decided to malfunction in the closed position.

Jane was outstanding as a pet sitter and as a person. She coped with Irish bad weather and not so great public transport with ease and good humour. She maintained our house perfectly and left some nice food and a lovely gift for our return. Our cat was in the best form ever following our trip and told us that Jane was his favourite and could she come back again sometime…

Julie and Greg were great pet sitters for our 2 cats, Harry and Ron. They communicated their travel plans and arranged to come to our house a couple of hours early so we could introduce them to the pets and their care, and show them around the house. During the sit, they sent us regular updates and pictures, which was greatly appreciated. They kept meticulous care of the house, and even mowed the lawn for us while we were gone. I would definitely like them to return and feel totally comfortable recommending them to others.

Pamela was wonderful. Both dogs warmed up to her right away. She was very communicative before, during and after the stay and made sure we got home safely after she left. We would be happy to have her watch our home and pups again!

Heidi arrived after she had to experience major delays in airports, flight cancellations and and rerouting. She never gave up! Totally committed from start to finish of the sit she was looking after our horse and she also made friends with our dogs and our parrot. All our animals are rescues and it usually take them some time to accept strangers but Heidi with her calm demeanor had them eating out of her hand in no time. I can only recommend Heidi highly and she is welcome at our place any time.

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.

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!

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.

Justin was an excellent sitter and a very pleasant person to deal with. The care he gave to my dog Rosie was second to none, and he also too very good care of my apartment. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody looking for a reliable and responsible pet sitter.

This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!

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!!!😁

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!

Andrea was the perfect sitter for our older Italian Greyhound and our shy cat. 
She followed every request to a “t”, and helped us to feel comfortable and care 
free for a long zeewoi. The communication 
of photos and videos were a warm 
reminder of how well they had been adjusting to our absence. Andrea showed care and consistent compassion for Darcy and Hammy. 
She seemed to enjoy them and our home as much as us!
We returned to an absolutely spotless home, without anything left undone. She thought of everything related to us and our pets, so we could have a seamless late evening  return. 
We highly recommend Andrea for any zeewoi, as she is a jewel. Anyone looking for a “perfect” sitter would be lucky to have Andrea as a trustworthy, considerate and kind person to care for their pets and home.

Laura was amazing with communication from the very beginning. She sent updates of photos and videos without even being told or asked to do so. She was watching our cat and treated her like her own. Laura was also very responsive when we were trying to find a sitter for our dates and answered any and all questions we had about her experience with pets and house sitting. I would recommend her to anyone! :) and hope we can have her house sit again for us.

Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. 
She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. 
Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. 
I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
