This is Dianne and Wayne's second sit for us looking after our puppies we are so lucky to be able to have them sit. They care for our puppies and home like it was their own. We certainly would highly recommend them and we would love to invite them to stay again.

If I could give 10 star I would :) Michelle and Phet are two of the kindest, most amazing souls we’ve ever met. The communication has been very smooth. One of our dogs had her period and needed to take meds during their sit, and they handled it perfectly. Michelle kept in close contact with us, not only updating us with photos of our pets, but also taking proactive actions to care for our properties. They did an outstanding job! We even had the pleasure to have lunch with them after the sit, and we had great conversations! We are grateful to have met them and it became an experience beyond just a house sit 🙏 I definitely recommend Michelle with full confidence!

Kath and Basil were great house sitters and I can't recommend them more highly. We caught up over facetime prior to their stay which gave us a chance to meet them, ask any questions and feel more comfortable with using them for our house sit. During their stay, they looked after our house so it was beautifully clean and tidy when we returned. They had also left us some milk and bread as we'd arrived home late at night and, unexpectedly, some lovely gifts as well. It was such a relief to know that our pets were looked after while we were away (including our sausage dog who we know can be a little tricky to win over). They sent us photos and updates during our trip and even 'poo picked' our horses' paddocks so that they were very clean for our return. I wouldn't have any hesitation recommending them to other house sitters or having them back to sit for us again.

We were absolutely thrilled with Eve and Guildwen. They were friendly, kind and looked after Toby and Jasper very well. We received photos and videos regularly while on our holidays and we had peace of mind that our fur babies were in good hands. The house was left nice and clean and the garden was watered. We would highly recommend them:) Helene and Frank.

Katrina and Dan were exceptional house sitters. From the onset, they put my mind at ease. Katrina was very good with timely communication and even though they had a long delay, they arrived in Astana ready to house sit. Katrina often shared photos of my cat. They also did a great job of handing over to the next sitter. I would not hesitate to ask them to take care of my cat again.

Amanda and Casper did a great job looking after our home and our dog, Bailey. The house was spotless when we returned and Bailey had obviously been well cared for. I would thoroughly recommend Amanda as a sitter and wouldn't hesitate in having her mind our home again.

Because i was ill when Trudi and Bill came in April, we didnt manage to get away as planned. rudi and Bill were a marvellous help, as i had just come out of hospital, and took over looking after Coco, helped with cooking, shopping etc. Not quite what any of us were expecting, but it was a pleasure to have them around.

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.

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.

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.

Justin was an excellent sitter and a very pleasant person to deal with. The care he gave to my dog Rosie was second to none, and he also too very good care of my apartment. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody looking for a reliable and responsible pet sitter.

Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!

We've had many pet sitters over the years (this is our first time using this app) and Missy is the best sitter we've ever had for our dog and cats. Our pets, particularly our dog, adored her and was really sad to see her go. It is obvious she loves animals and immediately understood the pack dynamics and the pet personalities. She kept the house tidy, litter box clean, and the animals so well loved.  
Because she was traveling from far away, she stayed with us the night before our trip and the night we came back. It was a pleasure to get to know her. We would welcome her back to our house as a friend or a sitter anytime. Highly recommend!

We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs.

From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands.

Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! 

We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. 

Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

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.

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!
