Josephine and Jason were amazing. Totally self sufficient and they seem to impart a joy to everything they do. Olive was a happy camper, they taught her to swim and to do a high five. The house looked great on our return and all our plants survived through incredible heat. We would love to have them back! Thank you both for your great care!

Jude and Wendy were a pleasure to have sitting at my house and taking care of my Kacey. He was very good at communicating before and during the sit. He would send daily photos and updates of their time with Kacey. They gave Kacey the best vacation while I enjoyed my vacation. They left my house in excellent condition, cleaning it before I returned home. I felt very comfortable being out of the country knowing they were taking good care of Kacey and I hope they can watch her again during my future trips.

What a treat to come home from our trip to happy animals and a lovely clean house. Even though girls were pleased to see us they were more than happy to ignore us after 10 minutes which was great to see. Thankyou both Jaclynn and Jerry, it was lovely meeting you both, and thankyou for looking after our animals and house. We loved the photos everyday of our animals an the exciting trips you took them on . I am sure they are all missing you. I recommend you both 100% plus as house sitters.

Lindsay is the best! Paco absolutely loves her! She is great with Paco, neat & tidy, and very reliable. She replies promptly to texts, sends regular "Paco updates", and left the house very clean! This is her second time petsitting for Paco, and we would love to have her back! We 100% recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a petsitter or housesitter. Paco looked very happy and healthy upon our return, and even learned some new phrases! Thank-you Lindsay, Paco will miss you! xoxo

Isobel and Gustavo were 5 star sitters in every way. They kept me updated with pictures and when I returned home my house was spotlessly clean and tidy. I would recommend them and be very happy to have them sit for me again.

I highly recommend Sharon & can’t think of anyone I’d rather have stay with my pets. She is wonderful & did everything in her power to make sure we had an enjoyable trip before she even arrived. We came home to a clean house & very content dog. From first greet at the door, it was like Cleo had known Sharon for years. He can be a little bit standoffish sometimes, so that says a lot about her. He was treated like a king. Sharon was focused on Cleo & took the time to do all the activities he loves to do everyday (a long list) & provided lots of updates. Cleo is obviously disappointed. Sharon has left. Hoping she will come for another visit soon!

Chelsey flew to Oregon to care for Lucy for four days and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She came a day early like we requested and we so enjoyed getting to know Chelsey. She is a delight…funny, caring and very warm. Lucy immediately fell in love with her and even slept with her the first night when we were still home. Chelsey took Lucy on many adventures…to the mountains, the coast and even paddle boarding on a local lake which she loves! Chelsey kept us updated with photos and texts. When we got home every thing was tidy and in order and Chelsey left us a lovely note. We highly recommend Chelsey for your next sit. In fact we are hoping she returns to be with Lucy again!

Brianna is amazing! She is such a caring and kind person, and my two cats were naturally drawn to her. They usually only cuddle with me one at a time, so I found it interesting that she had several photos where they were cuddling together with her- maybe she somehow put them at ease? She seemed genuinely concerned for their wellbeing- one of them I’ve been struggling to get to eat and she tried out different things and was able to find a technique that I’m still using to get him to eat. She’s incredibly responsible and left my home immaculate. She’s also very easy to work with and is able to roll with everything. Such a great experience. Thank you Brianna!

It was a pleasure to have Edward sit for us. We arrived home to a relaxed and we’ll attended to kitty. Which was the primary reason for having a pet sitter while we were away for a month long trip. Edward was also competent and respectful of our house systems, workings and garden spaces. He was also very good at looking after our many house plants. Some of them in even better shape when we got home than we left them. We’re happy to recommend Edward as a capable and competent pet/house sitter. Paul

We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. 
Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention.
He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. 
He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. 
The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! 
We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. 
We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. 
Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). 
In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. 
We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!

This was our first time using a pet or house sitter and the bar set by Leslie is very high! She is warm, friendly, communicative, responsible and very clean. Upon arriving, she immediately bonded with our rat terrier, Oreo, by bringing him a new frisbee (his favorite toy/activity) and throwing it for him in our backyard.  Leslie has a sweet and mellow dog, Benny, who is now Oreo's new buddy! She kept my husband and I updated via texts/pictures of their daily activities, our house, and was proactive in asking questions before she left. She even dropped our dog off at the kennel for one night at the end of our trip since our flight was too late for us to get home for him!
Our home was clean and had fresh flowers from our garden that she put in vases for us! Such a simple and nice touch! 
We have asked Leslie to come back to sit for us again for 2 weeks in August. I'd highly recommend her to take care of your pet(s) and home too!

Prashant and India were fantastic pets sitters for us. Both were dependable and were even kind enough to allow some service people into the home to do some repairs.

Our dogs were well looked after and we got daily updates on how the dogs were doing. Prashant is very knowledgeable and gave us a few strategies to combat some negative behaviors that we were seeing with the dogs.

Could not recommend them more. They will be missed.

Leah was an excellent pet sitter and take care of our home when we were on vacation.
Our dogs were sad when she left.
She even made us some delicious tacos when we got home from the airport!
We highly recommend her!

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. :)

Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.

Felecia was an excellent sitter and perfect companion for Livi, our 3 yr old Aussie mix! She was always prompt with communication when needed, took great care of our pet and house and was just as clean coming home as we left it. I would not hesitate to recommend Felecia for other sits.

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.

Laura is incredible!  For starters, she is a clear and considerate communicator who is reliable and trustworthy while setting up details for a sit in advance.  From there... where do we start?!  Laura (and her sister Stephanie, for a few days) took care of our cat & dog for a week-long sit. We were immediately at ease with both of them, and it was clear that they were excited to meet our pets and love them, and relaxed and comfortable in this role. They asked informed and curious questions about our pets, routines, and the surrounding area to set up a successful sit. When we departed, our dog hardly seemed to notice, because she was getting to know her new people! 

The snuggle-fest and hiking adventures that took place while we were gone resulted in happy pets who were calm and content. We received daily photos, which were heart warming, and assured us that dog hugs and cat exercise were taking place.  Our dog is very affectionate, and Laura made sure that she received plenty of love while we were gone. Upon return, our home was spotless - tidy and clean (possibly cleaner than when we left, and we tried really hard!) We are games people, and Laura left us some of her favorite games to play (yay), and gifts for our pets, which were so fun to open when we got home.  Everything was so thoughtful and kind. 

Laura is absolutely one of the top sitters we've ever had, and we are so grateful for her care.  She went above and beyond basic home/pet care, and her compassion shines through in all of her communications and actions. She (and Stephanie) are welcome anytime, and we (Zora and Morris especially) hope they will come stay again!

Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!
