Abeela
Reed, Portland
Digital Nomad | Cat Obsessed | Hiking Enthusiast | Web Designer
Excellent - Highly Recommend! We recently had the pleasure of having Abeela take care of our home and Toby the Cat while we were away, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. Abeela took the time to understand Toby’s routines and habits, which gave us great peace of mind. During our time away, she provided regular updates and photos/videos of Toby, which was incredibly fun. It was clear that he was well-loved and in great hands. When we returned home, we found everything in perfect order—clean, tidy, and even better than we had left it. Toby was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Abeela went above and beyond, taking care of every detail. It’s evident that she takes pride in her housesitting and genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets and homes she looks after. We highly recommend Abeela to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. We hope she will return again in the future! Lori and Jim

Trustworthy, fun-loving, warm, independent lady who loves animals
Rachel was a wonderful house and cat sitter. She was very communicative. From the photos, it seemed my 2 cats adored her! I would have Rachel back in a heartbeat!
Patrick

Responsible+caring pet-sitter available to look after your furry family and home
It was a short sit but Patrick was great. Sent some really great photos of Charlie and communicated every day. We will definitely try to book him again.
MARGARET
Reed, Portland
Margaret & Brian pet-lovers and homeowners are experienced pet and house sitters
Margaret and Brian were lovely and my pets were very happy when we came home. The house was as we left it and they kept in touch with photos of the dogs while we were away. I would highly recommend them!
E Maren
Reed, Portland
Bicycle-traveling nomadic cat lover
Maren was great! Communicative, reliable, sent frequent updates, and left the place very clean and tidy. Asked good questions and clarified with us about any time away from home, etc. to make sure Willie’s needs were met. Seemed to get along great with Willie. Would have Maren back any time to take care of Willie and our home.
James
Reed, Portland
Leave your pets, and worries, behind.
James was great and so appreciated his extra care and patience with Simba. He braved a crazy heat wave and great at communicating.
Debs
Reed, Portland
Scottish import, professional & highly experienced caregiver.
Debs was so gracious when we made multiple changes to our sit plans at the last minute. She was flexible when we delayed our departure date and was enthusiastic about adding caring for our new rescue pup to her responsibilities. She came for a meet and greet a few weeks before the sit and showed up early on the first day to ensure the dog was comfortable. We appreciate having a wonderful local sitter and would love to have Debs stay at our house and care for our pets again.
Frank
Reed, Portland
Pet-loving Professional Couple Travelling and Working Remotely
Frank and Danielle were the perfect housesitters! They left our place very clean and we returned to homemade lentil soup, which was a lifesaver when you get home starving with nothing in the fridge. They sent me little updates daily (as asked) and our cat seems to warm up to them well. Would definitely have them back!!
Harley
Reed, Portland
Pet-loving couple exploring the world one sit at a time
Harley and Ben were a pleasure to work with! They were communicative, left the home looking clean, and our cat was relaxed and happy when we returned. Would recommend!
Reviews from Pet Owners
Mike
Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Sheelagh
honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Branden
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.
Barbara
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!!
Ann
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
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.
Suzanne
Melanie and Steve were excellent house & pet sitters. They sent me so many pictures of my 3 cats without me even asking and it made me so happy to see them enjoying their company. I'd say out of all the house sitters I've had, they spent the most time with my cats which means a lot to me. They are kind, easy to connect with and I'd welcome them back anytime. As far as caring for my house - top notch.
Lynn
We were so happy to have Kyle as our house sitter for two weeks. Besides taking great care of our pets and our house, he was very accommodating. We were always able to get in touch with him if we needed to, and he agreed to take on some extra plant watering’s when the weather made a sudden change. As a bonus, he is very likable and communicative. We would definitely have him come again.

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
