I highly recommend Ildy!! We just returned from a five week trip and wanted to share our thanks and recommendation for Ildy. She loved on our 2 dogs, cat, and chinchilla just like we do.

Ildy is responsible, reliable, kind, caring, responsive, communicative and AMAZING! There are not enough thank yous to express our appreciation!!!!
Robyn
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otane, New Zealand
New Zealand couple keen to house sit
Delighted that Robyn & John could take care of our house and our precious cat Gorgeous George. We had absolute peace of mind and got regular updates and photos of George clearly showing that he was incredibly comfortable and enjoying their company. Robyn & John are a lovely couple and we got to spend time with them before we left. They are very easy going and looked after our house going above and beyond in terms of cleaning it etc. before they left and to the point where they even brought their own linen. Was an absolute pleasure to host them and we were very lucky that our first experience was with them. Would always be happy to recommend them and have them look after George again. He very clearly really liked them as did we. All that matters was that George was well looked after and was able to stick to his routine and this was accomplished so many thanks to Robyn & John.
Nicola

Responsible pet-lovers with 11 years’ work experience in the pet industry.
Nicola and Chris did a phenomenal job housesitting for us and taking care of our Amazon Parrot named Yoshi. They were punctual, communicative, and they quickly warmed up to Yoshi and had no issues taking care of him. When we arrived home we were pleasantly surprised to see that it was neat, clean, and looked better than we had left it. Also, Yoshi was in bright spirits and totally comfortable. I would definitely invite Nicola and Chris back if they ever wanted to housesit again!

Lee and Marc were just fabulous to have look after Bob. Bob absolutely loved them and I had no hesitation leaving him with them. They were extremely clean and tidy and treated the house like home - it was a real pleasure to have them and I can highly recommend them for future sits.

What a delightful couple. They looked after our house beautifully and most importantly took excellent care of Reba, our tricky Labrador. Dani & Mel are confident and experienced dog handlers who ensured Reba had plenty of exercise and stimulating activities while keeping him safe. We could not recommend Dani & Mel more highly. We (Reba too) are looking forward to their next visit.
Reviews from Pet Owners
Lynn
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!
Hannah
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Robert
Kelly was flawless, she was a fantastic pet sitter and house sitter. She was over communicating with pictures and updates. We were at total peace knowing Kelly was overseeing Leo and Bella. Kelly connected with our dogs perfectly. We loved how Kelly daily took our dogs for walks and even an extended hikes. She has our full and complete recommendation.
Katrina
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.
Sarah
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.
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Megan
I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!
Laurie
Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !! She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !

Kuldip exceeded all the expectations we had from a Zeewoi. She took over from another sitter when we got stuck out of country due to a family emergency. A highly energetic person yet extremely organized, she easily matched the energy level of my 2-year-old Border Collie Pavo. She not only exercised him multiple times every day, but even him bought him new doggy toys and treats (much appreciated!). She got along very well with our neighbor and with their combined help Pavo got a much needed doggy bath! With her by my dogs side we were worry-free and able to focus on our family needs. Lastly, she left a pleasant surprise when we came back home. Our home looked squeaky clean and beautifully organized. Kuldip is a gem of a pet sitter and we would love to have her back for our fur baby without any hesitation. I highly recommend her!
Marcia
Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat. He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care. Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!
