Julie Hamann and Daryl Hine
Julie and Daryl looked after our home and pets for almost 2 weeks. We found them to be very friendly and reliable and they looked after everything well. While we were away they responded promptly to our requests for updates on the pets and we came home to a lovely clean and tidy home.

Sophie and Mitchell from New Zealand. Have 3 cats shared with another family.
I cannot express enough how reliable, caring, and trustworthy the pet sitters were, especially considering that nothing went as planned and everything seemed to be a worst-case scenario. Kiara, our old dog, was usually healthy and low maintenance, accustomed to being alone for extended periods of time. However, a week before our trip, she started experiencing what we initially thought was severe back pain, which quickly turned into a more serious situation. Her immune system weakened, and her lab results were concerning. We had a discussion with the pet sitters, explaining the situation and offering them the option to back out since it was a different arrangement than they had signed up for. Kiara now needed to be carried going up and down stairs, multiple medications, and constant monitoring. Also, we were unsure if we should proceed with our travel plans. After two days, we received the diagnosis of a tick bite infection, and Kiara responded well to antibiotics. We made the decision to go on our trip, but with the understanding that we would return immediately if her condition worsened. To make things easier, we lent the pet sitters our car so they could transport Kiara comfortably, and they took her to a first check-up to the vet. The first check-up went well, but the bloodwork revealed something unusual, leading to another examination. Unfortunately, Kiara's health deteriorated rapidly before the second check-up, and the veterinarian informed us that she didn't have much time left as the antibiotics were not effective. We had to cut our trip short and fly back immediately. Throughout this entire ordeal, the pet sitters were incredible. They took exceptional care of Kiara, keeping us informed of any signs that could be of concern. We knew she was with people that were monitoring her closely and we got small bits of updates multiple times a day. Additionally when she was not feeling so well the guys brought her to the couch with them and kept her company. When her conditioned worsened we had to cancel the second half of the pet sitting to be with Kiara during her last day, the pet sitters graciously gave us space. We offered to manage their accommodations, but they insisted we need not worry about them. However, we insisted on partially paying for their accommodation for that night and provided alternative options if needed. We are eternally grateful not only for taking care of Kiara while we were away but also for understanding our need to come back and be with her during her final moments. Needless to say, the car and the flat were in perfect condition and spotless clean. We wish them bost the absolute best.

Reviews from Pet Owners
Leslie
Jeannette was the absolute best pet sitter anyone could ask for! She was communicative and easy going. She took very good care of the house, but most importantly she took superb care of my dog, Bodhi. She took him on long walks and fun adventures everyday. While I was out of the country, I received pictures and updates of their "vacation". I loved seeing Bodhi's and Jeannette's smiles in all the photos. They definitely bonded. :) I would highly recommend Jeannette as a pet sitter and also as an excellent person who cares about people, animals, and the planet.
Jennifer
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.
Robert & Rebecca
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!

Linda was an awesome pet sitter for my doggie Brodie! She gave him so much loving attention… he has some separation anxiety at 9 years old & she never left his side! She was so attentive to him & I am very grateful for that! Linda’s communication was also something I liked… we texted & chatted on the phone before her arrival & I felt very comfortable with her being in my home & with my dog. I could tell her number one reason to pet sit was her love for dogs & desire to be a wonderful companion for Brodie while I was away for the weekend! Would love to have her back anytime…
Simon
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!
Lynn
I enjoyed meeting Samara. Sosha arrived after I left so we only communicated in writing. Samara is a sweet, considerate pet sitter. She brought her cat, who posed no difficulties to my pets. Samara was in good communication with me during her stay. She used my car without incident. My home was left much cleaner than upon her arrival. Samara proved to be an honest and responsible pet sitter and I would open my home to her at any time in the future.
Dominique
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!
Michelle
Elaine was the best dog and cat sitter I have ever had! She was so loving to the boys, kind, reliable, capable and took fabulous care of my two dogs and cat welfare. Walked them every day and would even sing to them (-: I am so very grateful to have had the pleasure of meeting Elaine and I would recommend Elaine to anyone wanting first class care of pets and home!!! We all miss having her around and wish her a fabulous world trip and safe journey back to the States.

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.
Cheryl
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.
