Animals teach us what unconditional love is <3
“ I couldn’t be more pleased with the Gabriella! Not only did she take excellent care of my pets, but her attention to cleanliness was top-notch. I came home to a spotless space, and my pets seemed relaxed and happy. Communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring throughout the entire time. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such capable hands. Highly recommend!

We will provide loving care when you’re not there!
Fiona and Alan were excellent house sitters and took wonderful care of our menagerie. While we were overseas, we received regular updates and images of our pets and it was clear the animals were having their own holiday retreat. When we got back home, Fiona and Alan had made a lovely dish for us and left the house immaculate. We couldn't have been happier with the way they looked after our place and animals.

Rochelle and Lawrence took excellent care of our three year old cockapoo, Gryffin. They were very organized prior to the sit and confirmed arrival/departure times well in advance. They sent great photos during the sit and I could tell Gryffin was in good hands. The house was left clean and I could tell Gryffin really liked them when we got home. Thanks again for giving Gryffin so much love while we were away!
Natacha
Providing Pet Sitting in the Okiwi, New Zealand
We pride ourselves in our cleanliness and the care for your animals
Natacha & Johnathan were the perfect house sitters! From the start they were excellent with their communication, asked all the right questions about looking after the flat/cats and were super flexible when dates slightly changed for us which was really appreciated. Zorro & Sambi clearly loved their company and we received plenty of updates throughout our trip away. Then to top it all off we came home to a spotless flat and a little treat from NZ! I'd recommend Natacha & Johnathan to anyone looking for a sit & would welcome them back any time!! x

Frank
Providing Pet Sitting in the Okiwi, New Zealand
Ideal house and animal sitters for peace of mind and security
Maria & Frank were wonderful looking after our house and dog Paddy. With a road closure, Frank flew over to look after Paddy on time while Maria joined him later on. Paddy was walked often and loved by them and was very happy and in good shape when we returned. The house was clean and tidy when they left and we have no hesitation recommending Frank & Maria and using them again.

North Yorkshire girl seeking pet sit whilst seeing family in Wellington, Nz.
I can highly recommend Anne. She looked after our hens and horses while we were away. Anne was completely reliable and kept in touch before and during her stay. The house was just as we left it and the animals were all very happy.

Kiwi seeking the local experience and animal companions
Natalie was a fantastic housesitter and is such a lovely person! We went away for 10 days and throughout that whole time Natalie kept us updated with pictures of our two cats. She was very responsive and left the flat super clean and tidy, and our cats were clearly very well cared for during our absence. We'd be delighted to have her back to housesit again!

HILARY
Meg was a dream pet sitter for my three year old labradoodle. She gave him nice long walks and was very organized, communicative and tidy. I look forward to another opportunity to have Meg in my home!
Ericka
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!
Kate
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.
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Jenny
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!
Jessica
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!

Anna was the perfect sitter for Tali, Mac and Sox. From the first moment we met Anna we all got on extremely well and we had no worries about leaving our pets in her safe hands. Anna gave them loads of fun time and company, lovely walks and snuggles in front of the TV. Thanks for all the fun we had before and after the sit too. We would not hesitate to recommend Anna for any sit.
Cheryl
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
Chelsea
Tom was the PERFECT pet and house sitter. I went out of town for a while after my dad passed, and I had a few pet sitters bail before he came in for the rescue. He cleaned up the messes and I came home to a clean house and VERY happy babies! My two dogs LOVED him. He is extremely reliable, clean, trustworthy and was incredibly caring to my dogs. I would have him back ANYTIME and HIGHLY recommend him!!
Melissa
For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high. We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything. Melissa and Kyle
