Pet Sitters in Guanacaste

Natalie was amazing! Please come back next time!!!

Rick and Gina were AMAZING house sitters. Could not have asked for anything better. Dogs were so content when we came home, house looked great. They are an absolute delight to get to know. Could not recommend them more..

Janel is an animal lover and has a fun-loving enthusiastic personality. She has great communication skills and was able to provide constructive criticism so we can make future sits easier. Janel sent pictures of our pets while we were gone and made sure we knew how the pets were doing while we were away. She took fantastic care of our goats, guinea pigs, birds and our dog. She left the house in perfect condition making our return home a pleasure! Our dog Rocket was calm and relaxed, excited to see us but not anxious . All the pets were well cared for and again Janel has fantastic communication skills. She left before we returned and made sure the animals were cared for before she left. She also checked in to be sure we had returned. We would highly recommend Janel for any housesitting position she would like to do. She is capable, caring and professional!

Jamie did a great job looking after Earl and Hazel! We came home to a clean house and a happy cat and dog. Jamie was very knowledgeable of how to train dogs, and even had some tricks and suggestions for us (such as using a Wonder Walker). Hazel is still better behaved now than she was before we left her. Jamie sent us many updates while we were away on our trip and assured us that the pets were fine.

It has been a delight arranging things with Belinda and Johnathan. Very clear communication, kept me updated about Batley and was responsive when there was something to arrange. Batley is an older boy but young at heart and he seems to have had a great time. They were very considerate and caring for him. Would definitely recommend Belinda and Johnathan to take care of any pets.

We’re really grateful to Blanca and Alex. They showed such genuine interest and care to our pet family and even though our bunch can be a handful, they took care of them so lovingly. I came back home to very happy dogs and cats and a sparkly clean house. Thank you for sharing your energy and love with our pets!

Could not have asked for better! Even replenished my Guinea pigs lettuce supply … which is a quick way to my heart. Minimally disruptive. 5/5

Cherish was coming back to the USA after spending time in Costa Rica. This meant that she had her own settling in issues to deal with, such as getting a car and finding a job. While this didn't affect her care of our cat Shinko, we could tell her focus was often elsewhere. Other than a few honest mistakes that we can attribute to understanding things around the home (though they were documented), our only real issue is that she left the kitchen in a state of disarray, and we had to spend a few hours after 2 days of driving back to clean it up. We were supposed to have a housekeeper come that day, but she ended up being sick, and so that factored into the situation, though it should not have been a factor. Overall, Cherish has a calming personality around our cat and took good care of our home and let us know if she was having a guest(s) over ahead of time. If not for the situation when we returned and a few minor inconveniences, it would have been 5 stars.

This was our first time on the app, it left some things to be desired. The cats were fine and the apt was clean when we arrived, she communicated her travel plans well and in advance, but there were several things that left us a bit uneasy. The Welcome guide and oral instructions were not followed on several occasions, leading to a potentially risky situation both for the safety of the apartment as well as that of the pets (leaving the garden door open while no-one’s home in full holiday season; leaving the window open throughout the whole stay, even if it was clearly indicated to close it when no-one is at home). We would have appreciated a more proactive communication about the wellbeing of the pets while we were away (not telling us right away one of the cats was missing for half a day, in the beginning had to insist to get pictures). Also the cat litter box was not properly cleaned, leading to urine buildup inside the box. There were several things moved or changed inside the apartment, that left us confused, the instructions for the dishwasher were not followed, leading to damaging some of the cutlery, the freezer was not properly closed since days. And communication in general could be much improved (the night before the sit Magui just assumed we would host her, even if that was not agreed upon beforehand - we did invite her to stay and join us for dinner too, but it felt like a demand, not a request; upon arrival pointing to the open door she abruptly ended communication with us). We believed this site to be a two way street, but it honestly did feel like providing a hotel for someone.
