Amie
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
Caring, Experienced & Trustworthy Pet/House Sitter
Amie is one of the best sitters I've ever interacted with. She went above and beyond to care for Mixon over the two and a half months I was away. Since he recently had been diagnosed with a kidney issue prior to my trip, I was worried about leaving him. She kept me informed on a daily basis (with pics!) about how he was doing and even spoke with my vet several times to make sure he was ok when he wasn't going to the bathroom regularly. I never had to worry once! She also did a great job with my plants and kept my home in clean and tidy condition. She was also very self-sufficient and organized - she took notes when she came over to meet Mixon & see the apartment prior to the sit! 10/10 would recommend Amie.
FABRICE
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
I am a traveler and animal lover curious about new places !
Fabrice sat for us for 3 weeks. It was great, especially that we had an additional dog, total of 4, which the one additional had some issues that Fabrice handled with excellence! We highly recommend him for a sit!
Genifer
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
My friends call me Snow White bc I will (try) to befriend any animal or bug
I couldn’t recommend Genifer more as a pet sitter. She is clearly very experienced with looking after animals and my two cats absolutely loved her, especially the one who’s usually more shy! She was a great communicator and I also came back to a spotless apartment. I would have her back anytime!
Angela
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
Mindful and Adventurous couple available to take care of your home & pets!
This was the longest sit we've had, at two and a half weeks, and we didn't worry one bit. Angela was super organized, a great communicator, sent us photos and videos every day, and inspired the confidence that we could have taken another week and everything would have worked out fine. And we appreciated that she sent a checklist to let us know what she'd done before we returned. Came home to happy and healthy cats (our cats fell in love!) and a very clean home.
Ann
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
20+ five-star reviews! Responsible, loving, kind. Can’t wait to meet your floof!
Ann is very reliable, communicative and easygoing. We have no concerns when she is here with out cat Zuzu. We have been very fortunate to have Ann with Zuzu for a third time now! Already planning for a next time, if she is available... good sitters go fast!! :)
Carol
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
Responsible, dependable and caring.
Carol is absolutely wonderful. She is extremely warm and caring and took great care of Millie and another family member’s dog while we were away. She also took great care of our home. We’d welcome Carol back anytime.You could not wish for a better sitter for your pets and home. Thank you sweet Carol!
Terry
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
Super Enthusiastic home, pet and plant Lovin’ Woman
Terry exceeded our expectations for being our Trusted Sitter! This was our first time using the Trusted Sitters services, and Terry answered questions we did not think to ask. While we were away, she sent videos and photos of our sweet kitty, Allie, and gave us updates on her adjustment to a new caregiver. Finally, she thanked us for offering our home to her and cleaned the entire place before our return. I believe we gained a new "chosen family member" with Terry and we hope to see her again soon!
Dawn
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
"Living life with your fur baby, one Love lick at a time."
We love Dawn and have used her multiple times! We will continue in the future!
Veronica
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
The Mary Poppins of Problem Pets - That's what my clients call me!
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!
Sherice
Downtown, Fort Lauderdale
Caring & Trustworthy "Digital Nomad" ready 4 new experiences with ur Fur Babies.
Sherice, as always, was wonderful! We feel completely safe and secure knowing our home and pets are in good hands while we’re away. She communicates beautifully, genuinely enjoys her time with our cats and dog, and leaves our home in perfect condition. Thank you Sherice!
Reviews from Pet Owners
Mike
Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Sheelagh
honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Marlynn
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.
Robert
Kelly was flawless, she was a fantastic pet sitter and house sitter. She was over communicating with pictures and updates. We were at total peace knowing Kelly was overseeing Leo and Bella. Kelly connected with our dogs perfectly. We loved how Kelly daily took our dogs for walks and even an extended hikes. She has our full and complete recommendation.
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!
Thanh
Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)
Kristen
Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!
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.
Laurie

Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !
