Elise is an amazing housesitter! I love to travel but I also love my cat, so only the best care is good enough for her. And that’s exactly what Elise provided. She even went above and beyond my expectations. From the very beginning, communication with Elise was smooth and easy. She was available, approachable, clear, kind, respectful, … in her communication. While I was away, she kept me updated with wonderful messages and pictures of my cat and the apartment, which allowed me to travel with a peaceful and carefree mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Ikea, as she took the time to play with her, cuddle her and spend quality time together. I returned to a very happy cat. Ikea even “told” me that Elise took very good care of her. 😻 Elise did also an outstanding job of keeping my apartment in perfect condition! When I returned, everything was spotless and organized, even better than when I left. Elise has an excellent sense of organisation and a talent for making things better, easier, nicer, more cozy, … The little changes she made, gave my apartment a lovely “upgrade”. 😊 She truly went above and beyond, not only by maintaining my place clean and tidy, but also by leaving thoughtful gifts for me. This was a very nice surprise. 🤩 Elise loves to show her kindness, gratitude and love. It was so nice to come home in such a warm atmosphere. 🙏🏻 Describing Elise in a few words: kind, caring, available, warmhearted, respectful, dedicated, friendly, organized, tidy, communicative, responsible, helpful, reliable, funny, … If you are looking for a trustworthy housitter “with extra sparkle”, I highly recommend Elise. Thank you Elise, for you exceptional service, care and for the warmhearted person you are! ✨🙏🏻❤️

This was our second time having Delphine sit for us and she was great as per usual! She is very communicative and sends lots of photos/videos which help keep us at ease. We'd have her back again anytime!

Professional Petsitter with Over 20 Years of Experience
Jordan was amazing. She gave my boys so much love and wonderful care. She took the time to send me pictures and videos everyday. She had the challenging task of keeping my terrace plants alive when it was 40 degrees day after day. I enjoyed my vacation, knowing with the regular check ins, that everything was going well. It was wonderful coming home to well cared for Persian babies and my house being clean. I highly recommend Jordan. Her communication is excellent. She is simply a wonderful person.

Hans communicated well, was tidy and punctual. My skittish Hazel was a bit scared and redrawn when we got back but that's not unusual. Mirin seemed her happy self. He even cleaned the patio for us which was a very nice surprise.

Take care animals, houses and gardens with love and professionalism
Brigit and Daniel are charming and, as before, looked after our two dogs very well. The dogs were in great shape on our return and, as ever, Brigit and Daniel left the house spotless.

Down-to-earth couple with an open mind, seeking pets and their homes to care for
We recently had the pleasure of having Annick and Éric look after our two dogs and cat for 12 days, and we couldn't be more satisfied. Annick and Éric are experienced, reliable, organised, and highly responsible petsitters who immediately bonded with our pets. From the outset, we felt confident that our animals were in excellent hands, allowing us to leave with complete peace of mind. Communication with them was clear and efficient from our initial contact through the entirety of their stay. They kept us updated with plenty of lovely photos and videos, which was a delightful touch. They exhibited remarkable patience with our energetic 8-month-old border terrier, displaying a calming and positive energy that seemed to soothe him effectively. When we returned, we found a spotless home and visibly happy pets. We wholeheartedly recommend Annick and Eric and we hope to have them care for our pets again in the future.

Pet lovers with a passion for travel.
Karina and Tim were amazing housesitters! We were apprehensive about our first house sit, and how our elderly dog Otto would be with new 'carers' in the house. But they took plenty of time to understand his various dietary and medical requirements, sleeping arrangements etc and sent us daily updates on what he was up to in our absence. He was obviously very well cared for in our absence, and was happy and healthy on our return. I'm sure the house was cleaner when we got back than when we'd left it! Everything was spotlessly clean and tidy. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Tim and Karina, and hope they can sit for us again sometime!

Look no further, we are the ones!
Val and Tim along with their daughter Tess were amazing house sitters. They rose to every challenge that comes along with a large house on a large property full of pets. They provided excellent care to our four cats and four dogs, two fish tanks and a tortoise. They handled issues that arose with a complicated irrigation system as well as pumps used for water to the house. They even took care of all the house plants, our pool, and large garden while we were away. They did all this for 7 weeks in the heat of southern Spain with no air conditioning! They kept in touch, updating us about how our pets were getting along, and clearly spoiled them and seemed to really enjoy their company. We came home to find everyone happy, the home nice and tidy, and even with food and cold beer in the fridge so we didńt have to go to the shop after a long day travelling home. I can not recommend them highly enough for anyone in need of pet and house sitters. I truly hope they will come and sit for us again in the future.

Experienced housesitting couple - Belgium based
Amaury and Jasmijn are great dogsitters. Epken, their dog, was with them. We were very much in agreement on how to accompany dogs and it worked well between the dogs. As open and interessted people, they discovered our surroundings and the dogs were allways with them. They sent us photos every day and we enjoy this little exchange. Our house was clean and tidy when we got back and there was homemade Jam in the fridge ☺️. Our dogs were balanced and we were happy that everything walked out so wonderful and we got to know this two lovely people and, of course, Epken.😀
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!
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
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!
Not only did our pets enjoy meeting Kelly and Christopher, my husband and I enjoyed meeting them as well! They are personable and kind, organized and communicative, and most of all excellent pet sitters. Kelly and Chris are attentive housesitters. They went out of their way to connect with our dogs, especially Smitty, our rescue. The dogs were walked, brushed, and played with throughout the weeklong sit. They sent pics of how our fur babies were doing and truly seemed to enjoy their time with them. The peace of mind that comes with great house sitters who care for your precious pups and the home you love is priceless. Thank you once again, Kelly and Christopher! We hope to see you again!
Rebecca was the best pet sitter ever! Our chocolate lab, Kona, fell in love with her instantly and loved every minute of being around her. She was extremely attentive to Kona, taking him for daily walks and she did a great job of sending us updates, video clips and photos. We really loved that, knowing that Kona was being so well taken care of. As my husband said, "OMG, she is the Dog Sitter Champion of the world!!!" She is definitely at the top of our list for future dog sitting. If we could give her 10 stars, we would! Thank you so very much, Rebecca! You were amazing! The best ever!!!
Jennifer was great and I would highly recommend her. Right from the start, Jennifer was clear and helpful in her communication, and she was very available to us throughout the stay via messaging. She sent pics of our fur babies regularly - without asking - which always makes us happy when we're away. And the biggest compliment I can give: when we came home, our pets were relaxed and happy, and no hidden cat messes to be found (we've had this happen with previous sitters a lot). I would love to have Jennifer stay at our home again in future.
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.
David was a super interesting guy, we had good conversation. My place was clean, my cat was happy...he communicated with me.. David is a great house and pet sitter . He is very gentle, which my cat enjoys.
Jessica was an awesome pet sitter for my cat Fifi. She texted photos and updates everyday so I knew that Fifi was being well cared for. She was communicative and asked a lot of good questions to make sure she understood Fifi's needs. My home was equally as clean (if not more so) upon my return. I would highly recommend Jessica!
