I would highly recommend Dani to take care of your pets! This was my first experience and everything went very smoothly. One of my cats has diabetes and asthma and needed special care. Dani was awesome with following the details and doing mask training. My cats were very happy when I came home 🏡 ☺️

Tim and Erica were superb house and petsitters during the seven weeks I was out of town. They went way beyond my expectations in their care for my house and the kitties (and me)! I appreciated and accepted their offer to take me to the airport and pick me up on my return. They coordinated well with me while I was out of the country, sending photos of cats and updating me. When the dryer had problems, Tim worked with the dryer, me, and the repair company to handle it. (A new dryer is now on order!) And when the oldest cat had a recurrence of an ear infection, they coordinated with me and the vet’s office to get more medicine and give it to Spunky. They doted on the cats and took care of their every need! (Cats were clearly at ease with them when I returned.) And they went way beyond by doing some cleanup work outside and leaving the house in pristine condition. I wish them all the best and hope they’ll consider sitting again sometime.

Boone and Joni took fantastic care of our kittos and home! They were flexible when our dates changed slightly and were able to come meet our two cats and get the lay of the land before we left, which we truly appreciated. With daily updates and pictures, we were comforted to hear how everything was going. Boone and Joni were very patient in letting Luna and Takk befriend them and before long, everyone settled into a sweet, easy rhythm. We had a long travel day home and we arrived to two happy kittos and a supremely clean home! We are so grateful to Boone and Joni for their excellent care of critters and home!

Erica recently stayed at our house and took care of our dogs, Toby and Bizkit. Both love company, so they were thrilled to see new faces: Erica and her daughter. Only one of us was able to meet them, provide instructions, show the lay of the house/dog habits and get them situated. While away, we appreciated the occasional updates and photos, which kept us reassured that all was going well. Our trip had a hiccup on the way back—we were delayed—yet Erica was very accommodating with our figuring out a plan so she could go home. Overall, Erica was reliable and did a good job looking after both our home and dogs--she even cleaned the sheets and towels (bathroom and kitchen). We are glad that Erica was able to help us with that house/pet sit!

Shanessa was such a saving grace for my time away. My eldest dog had just undergone a last minute surgical procedure, and required a bit more attention. She was able to accommodate so many of my sometimes bizarre realities when traveling and put me at ease about leaving my (Dog) babies in someone else care

The good: I came home to my plants alive, my cat alive, and the house intact The bummer: I wish Laura had been more communicative before and during the sit. I'd requested daily updates and photos during the interview process, but found myself reaching out in the evenings to prompt for updates. I'd get a short response and a single photo showing proof of life. My cat is wildly affectionate and super photogenic. When I ran an Airbnb out of the house, literal strangers sent me richer messages and tons of photos. Was she happy? Playful? Was she eating? No idea. There were odd signs indicating that the house sit instructions had been ignored, like a full cat litter bag left in the indoor recycling bin and the cat food jars and licky mats left untouched. How'd you feed my cat? It was an OK sit, but I didn't have the peace of mind I'd hoped for.

We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. 
Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention.
He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. 
He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. 
The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! 
We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. 
We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. 
Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). 
In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. 
We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!

Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.

Felecia was an excellent sitter and perfect companion for Livi, our 3 yr old Aussie mix! She was always prompt with communication when needed, took great care of our pet and house and was just as clean coming home as we left it. I would not hesitate to recommend Felecia for other sits.

Kate was an excellent house sitter and pet sitter. She was thoughtful, sensitive, and attuned to our cats and the particulars of our house. It was really easy to communicate with her and she was responsible and conscientious about everything. When we came back our cats seemed unfazed by our return which was a great sign and it was obvious that she spent lots of time with them and gave them lots of love. The house was spotless on our return and she even alerted us to a health matter in one of our cats. She sent lots of cute updates and was easy going when we messed up a logistical detail on our end. Just a delightful person all around. I'd love to have her come again and if you have a chance to have her housesit, jump on it. She is a gem.

Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!

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!

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.

If you’re lucky enough to find Anna as your pet sitter you will have peace of mind and well cared for pets whilst you are away and a clean and tidy home on your return. Anna is thoughtful and kind, she arrived the evening before the sit which allowed for some time to hear about her interesting travels and work, kept me updated with fabulous photos and details of the friendship she was making with the cats and even took the trouble to fix a sticky catch on the cat flap. I can recommend her as a sitter without hesitation. Thank you Anna

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.

Absolutely Incredible....
I will not lie, I was hesitant because David did not have any pet sits before this one (gotta start somewhere) but because he did the background check I decided to contact him. We had a great phone conversation and the decision was made. He came to my house the night before I was leaving to learn all the ins and outs of taking care of my fur babies and then put himself up in a hotel for the night before the sit date. The next day he came over in the morning to learn a few more details before I left. I could not have chosen a better house sitter for my 2nd house sit . David communicated with me daily, sent pictures and we spoke via facetime. My little guy was feeling sick when David started and with diligence, love and kindness he was able to get my little guy eating again and feeling better. I would invite David back into my home over and over again but I am pretty sure he is going to be in high demand. Thank you David for everything!
