If you are lucky enough to have Danielle and Brodin stay with your furry friend, everyone is in for a treat! Not only did they keep the house immaculate, they were a pleasure to deal with, always timely and informative. Their dog Chia was a great friend for Bucky, and super easygoing. Danielle, Brodin, and Chia are all pros at house sitting, and it shows. I would not hesitate to have them back again, and I know Bucky would love it even more. There is nothing like coming home to a happy, tired pet, and a clean home!!! Wonderful experience all around.

We had a great experience with Linda during an earlier sit, and we were very happy she was available to return for another stay. As before, she took great care of our Rosie, walking her multiple times a day, and sending us lots of updates. We came home to a spotless house and a happy cat. Many thanks again!!

On a scale of 1 to 5 (with 5 as best) we would rate Maria and Lu as 12 or better. They should be the poster people for all house/pet sitters. They dealt with a difficult situation when the Koi began to spawn and left the house better than they found it. They seemed to enjoy their stay and our dog loved them. They even did extra chores above and beyond such as cleaning the BBQ, changing light bulbs, and organizing the garage. Communication was excellent and they even left several home cooked meals for us so that we would not have to cook on our first day back. We invited them back for another stay in August and they accepted. We feel that we not only found great sitters, but great friends that we hope to see often in the future.

Jennifer was an excellent house and cat sitter during my trip. This was my first time using a service like this, and I was very nervous about leaving my home and cats in the hands of someone I barely knew for 10 days. But Jennifer made me feel at ease from our very first Zoom call. In the hour we spent together before I departed, Jennifer came off as a kind, courteous, and conscientious person. I could tell from her daily picture updates that my cats were enjoying her company. When I returned, my home was tidy and my cats indifferent to my presence - which tells me that they felt well cared for. Simply put: I 100% recommend choosing Jennifer for your house sit.

Rachel stayed at our house for 6 weeks and took fantastic care of our two somewhat-needy cats as well as our house and yard! The experience was entirely positive, and we would not hesitate for an instant to have her back for another sit!! We confirmed Rachel as a long-term sitter for our two old men (cats) after reading her profile and reviews, and then having a Zoom meeting. She has the perfect combination of good humor, “laidbackness”, and seriousness when it came to caring for the cats. She was able to laugh at their weirdness (and they ARE weird), take mishaps in stride (litter box misses, etc.), provide their daily medications on schedule, and ask appropriate questions when things seemed a little off or she identified concerns. She has a presence that put us at ease immediately upon arrival, and the cats took to her very quickly. She asked us how often we would like updates, and how would we like them delivered, and then she provided them without fail at least as often as requested. We arrived home relaxed because we never worried about how things were going at home, and were happy to arrive to two healthy, happy cats, a well-kept yard, and a spotless(!!) house. As we said before, we would be thrilled to have Rachel sit for us again any time in the future, and we’re quite sure that Petey and Bucky would be excited to have her back as well!

Pearlene and Darrel did an amazing job with our kitties while we were away on our honeymoon. We got to meet them before the sit and they were immediately bonding with the cats, petting and playing with them. We got updates with photos and videos of cuddles and play time, and the cats really took to them. They are super kind, communicative, and clean, leaving the apartment in great shape! It was so nice not to worry about a thing while we were away. We would happily have them back in the future and highly recommend them to take care of your pets and home!

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.

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.

Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.

Sharon was by far the best sitter I’ve ever had! From the very first time we connected, she was communicative and proactive with follow up. She asked great questions prior to her stay and I could tell she’s done this many times and that she genuinely cares about the pets and homes she cares for. Sharon went above and beyond to leave my house in ever better shape, cleaning and organizing. It was a dream to come home to! Thank you Sharon!

Davis and Sydney were loving sitters for our pets.  We even had an extra cat (our son's) and they took great care of all of the pets and our home.  The pictures and the comments they sent  showed us they figured out all of their quirky personalities very fast. It was nice to come home to a clean house and all pets  were safe and happy! We would ask them back again.

Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers.  I would recommend them over and over.  I wish I could add numbers to the scale.
They would get a 10+.  

Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate.  They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left!  I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.

Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!

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!

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!

Jessica was so rad. I wish she could be our go-to sitter for all our travel. Came over for an in-person orientation, took great care of house and pets and seamless communication. Thank you, Jessica!
