We couldn't have been happier with Teressa as our house sitter. Teressa took fantastic care of our home and pets, ensuring everything was in perfect order upon our return. She communicated with us regularly, providing updates and photos that kept us at ease while we were away. Teressa was self sufficient during the sit and It was evident that she ensured our pup was well-cared for and happy. We highly recommend Teressa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible house sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Rachelle and Brad are the perfect house/pet sitters! They are warm with us and, more importantly, with our precious dogs. They took this "job" seriously: sending us photos everyday, taking the dogs on walks faithfully and following all our house- and pet-care instructions to the letter. Rachelle and Brad seemed to grow to love our dogs and, after we returned home and they got ready to take off for their next adventure, the dogs wanted to follow them! That's a successful pet-sitting experience. Moshe and Henri (our dogs) give them two paws up! The house was immaculate! Thank you, Rachelle and Brad!

Was so lovely to meet Carl and Eileen. They were wonderful, caring and thoughtful pet sitters. Eileen sent regular photo updates and anecdotes so we could tell Annapurna was well looked after and up to her normal, comfortable behaviour. She also took good care of our house plant and even sent through some advice on caring for it (we lack green thumbs ourselves, so haven't figured out how to care for the plant as well as the cat!) We came home to a spotlessly tidy home and happy purring kitty. Couldn't ask for more. Thank you Carl and Eileen!!

Paula was wonderful all the way around! Both of our Labrador Retrievers, Rip & Huck, really liked her and when we came home it was apparent she had taken fantastic care of them. Paula was always responsive - prior to and during the pet/home sit and kept us up to date. When we asked for a couple photos during our get-away, she happily and quickly provided them. We came back to our home, orchard, and garden looking great just as we had left it. Paula is very endearing, trusting, kind, helpful, and responsible. We highly, highly recommend her - you'd be fortunate to have her stay in your home and watch your pets. We would love to have her again - she is always welcome in our home. Thank you, Paula!

Webster loves Sue and is relaxed and happy when we return. She takes excellent care of him. Sue is also extremely self sufficient and resourceful. When unexpected things happen (like a big wind storm dropping branches over the driveway), she figures out a solution and moves on. We are always so happy when the schedule works and she can sit for us.

Talia was very excited to help out with the housesit and after learning that one of my cats had just passed prior to the sit, she and Drew reassured me that they would provide lots of extra love and attention to Vinny and Mickey to help with the lose of our buddy. She was easy to communicate with and we had a good conversation about how she and Drew intended to make sure Vinny wasn't left at home for too long since she was working out of the house while she was here. Between the 2 of them, Drew was here with the pets while Talia worked. Talia sent photos and updates and didn't hesitate to reach out when she noticed that Mickey wasn't eating some of his food. They washed the sheets and towels prior to leaving and did a wipe down of counters, vacuumed floors, etc. Pets were happy and healthy upon my return. The house smelled like it has been closed up for most of the time so I opened the blinds and cracked some windows to get it smelling fresh again. No complaints otherwise.

Kym came from 'across the Pond' to look after Cupar from 19th to 31st August this year. From the outset she was competant, organised and reliable - taking excellent care of Cupar who obviously warmed to her very much as she made a huge effort to engage with him during both playtimes and the walks they shared over the period. Unfortunately, Cupar was unwell for some of the time during the Sit and throughout Kym and I were in daily contact with regards to his medication and care. I couldn't have wished for anyone else to have been there in my absence as she really 'pulled out all the stops' to stabilise his condition. I cannot thank her enough for all she did! Kym also very much enjoyed her time on Skye and her stay here at Roskhill Barn - leaving it very clean and tidy upon her departure. I would not hesitate to recommend her for any future Sits.

Amy went beyond expectations to make the dogs feel comfortable and calm. One of the dogs was pretty nervous and she was very patient & insightful regarding his needs. He is also leash walking much better (not pulling or reacting to other dogs) which I attribute to her. The house was clean. Amy was flexible, kind and loves dogs. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her back.

Another amazing sit by Anna and her lovely family - our cocker spaniel Holly has had the best fortnight with these guys with lots of adventures and endless amounts of love and attention!
Highly recommend as 5-star house and pet sitters - thank you Anna - hope to see you again!

Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden.  The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom.  Already scheduled a second sit!  If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

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!

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.

I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail.

First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own.

Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see.

Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back.

I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site!

Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!

Kyle was a great house sitter and pet sitter for us. We had a good dialogue prior to him sitting for us, and we also did a short walkthrough the week before. Kyle formed a great bond with our dog Charlie and also took good care of our rabbit Poppy. A couple of minor issues came up with systems in our home due to an unexpected power outage, and Kyle was quick to connect with us and then was able to work 1:1 with the service providers to resolve the issues. We look forward to working with Kyle again.

Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month.  I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!

Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.
