This was our second house sit with Hannah and David. As was the case last time, we came home to such a happy, exercised, fit and well-loved Riley. Riley couldn’t decide who to go to next for pets and loves between the four of us. The house was spotless and even with an early morning flight the morning after our return, the beds were stripped and the trash was taken out. Riley got to go places with David and Hannah. They took her to Bark at the Park, they took her to early dinners at outdoor restaurants and they took her on new hikes. There was plenty of cuddle time and we received photos that kept us up to date on their adventures and quiet time. Honestly, we didn’t need to check in but felt totally comfortable with Riley’s care (free to be on vacation) during our three week trip abroad. As many of you will know, who have fur babies that they adore, this is saying something!! Thanks David and Hannah!! We welcome you back any time!!

Rose and Bruce were amazing sitters, and we welcome them back any time! Rose was communicative leading up to the designated dates and we really appreciated that they were willing to come a day early to meet us and the dogs, walk with us, allow us to show them our routine and ask questions we hadn't thought of. We were able to leave for our trip knowing that our girls were in great hands. We came home to happy dogs and a very clean and tidy home.

Lori was absolutely amazing. She was so responsive and gave us updates on our furry princess every couple of days. When we returned home, the house was spotless (truthfully better than we left it!). Lori took care of our plants (during a mini heat-wave) and everything looked amazing when we got home. Our princess Artemis was happy, relaxed and content when we got home. We know that she was very well cared for and cuddled by Lori. We would not hesitate for a moment to have Lori sit with us again. Thank you Lori!

We have just returned from a 9 night trip and left our pup Chester in Meghan's very capable hands. Communication in advance of the sit was always replied to quickly and she messaged me regularly on her arrival day to keep me updated on her journey. On arrival Chester and I both warmed to her immediately and she made a big fuss of him, which he loved. I showed her the house and a quick tour of our local area and had full confidence that both Chester and our home were in good hands. Throughout our trip Meghan sent us updates and photos which were lovely to see and on our return, our house was immaculate and she had even left both us and Chester a small gift which was so kind of her. We would welcome Meghan back any time, and in fact have already asked if she would like to come back for our next holiday! :)

We couldn’t have asked for better cat sitters for our two kitties. They took great care of our house and our pets, and they were communicative and tidy. We’d have them back any time — and we’d highly recommend them!

Jennifer and her family were amazing. They cared wonderfully for both the house as well as my two cats and big dog. Jennifer was so sweet to update me every day or two to keep me me know how things were going. The house was very clean and felt great when I returned. I would have them back in a heartbeat.

Enogie and her friend Allison were a delight to have watch Sawyer and Finn. Great communication and I had no worries even when I was out of cell service the whole weekend. They left the house basically cleaner than before, washed sheets and towels and remade bed. Was a very nice gesture to come home to.

Corrin and her mother took wonderful care of our pets. She arrived right on schedule, kept in touch with us with pictures and left our house spotless with very happy pets. We had the pleasure of meeting them both before we departed on our trip and immediately knew that our pets would be in great hands! We would definitely use them for future sits and highly recommend them!

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.

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.

Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!

Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! 

I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. 

During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully.

Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!

Anna and Alan were absolutely brilliant. This was my first time using a sitter for our pup and from the start Anna was reassuring and put me at complete ease. They sent regular pictures while we were away and were incredibly easy to communicate with. I'd highly recommend Anna and Alan for any pet sitting needs. Robyn

Angie and her husband Joe were a great fit for our house and pet sitting needs! They kept in communication with us before our vacation started, and were able to arrive a little early so we could walk them through how various systems worked and where controls were located. Our dog bonded with Angie very quickly and I think he was hoping she would stay after we returned home  :) 
We got regular updates and pet photos while we were traveling. Although we were out of cell phone range for several days, we never had a doubt that things at home would be just fine while they were there!
They were also very flexible and understanding. Due to our flight schedule we arrived home in the middle of the night. Angie was able to feed and walk our dog, clean up and leave in the morning without waking us up! The house was left clean, the garden was thriving and our pup was happy. We are happy, and would be happy to have them back again as sitters anytime.

Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. 
We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. 
Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing.  
We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. 
Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. 
Well done Jacob.

Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. 

The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit.  

Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. 

I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!

Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !!  She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. 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 !

Angela and Joe are wonderful house and pet sitters sitters in every way.  They have a great loving way with animals and my shy dog warmed up to them right away. They are warm, organized, confident, and thorough.  They communicated very well and gave me frequent updates and sweet photos of my dog Chica.  They also took excellent care of my home.    My only regret was that I didn't get to spend more time with them, because they're such lovely and interesting people.
I give Angela and Joe my highest recommendation and feel that anyone would be very lucky to have them their sitters! I hope that they return to sit here again.
