Paul & Violeta were so kind & caring & went above & beyond with my beautiful cats, they spoiled them with cuddles & fresh cooked fish, which they loved. They kept me updated with photos & reports daily & kept villa clean & tidy. I really hope they'll come back in the near future. I have no trouble highly recommending these beautiful, honest, kind, caring petsitters back into my home & my girls hearts & lives again. A big warm thank u. Very grateful.

This was my second time with Dan as a sitter, and everything was as perfect as the first time. My cats couldn't care less when I returned because he did such a good job caring for them. Even my very shy, fearful female cat loves him and sleeps with him, whereas she hardly lets strangers pet her. He's a lovely human being and excellent sitter -- very tidy, respectful, communicative, self-sufficient, etc. Anyone's pets would be lucky to have him while their people are away.

Kay is the most dedicated and caring person anyone could wish for. From the word go I knew Kay was the perfect human for Rani. Kay knows animals. Rani and Kay bonded to the point that Rani didn’t know who to go to when i arrived home. Kay also connected with the small lakeside community. Many friends and neighbours met Kay and Rani out and about on walks and in cafes. Kay kept me posted with messages and pics. Kay is warm and easy to talk with making communication easy. I walked into my place as though I hadn’t stepped out… A huge bowl of apples, plants watered, washing done, dog washed.. what more can I say except THANK YOU Auntie Kay 🐾🙏🏼 (Rani won’t forget you!!)

Echo and Renny loved Bernie and the new places she took them. Bernie communicated well before and during the sit and kept us up to date with photos and videos while we were away. Bernie is very reliable and we are looking forward to having her back.

What fantastic housesitters Barry and Anna were. They kept in touch whilst we were away, treated the animals so they didn’t miss us a bit, and left the house sparkling clean and neat. They were communicative and responsive, and helped us enormously filling in for another sitter who had to decline earlier. We would certainly invite them any time to look after our house and animals.

Lesley & Joe are absolutely delightful and were great house sitters. They are very well organised, sent us regular updates on Loki while we were away and left our house spotlessly clean. We would happily have them sit for us again.

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!

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.

I have nothing but great things to say about Jill! She’s a wonderful sitter and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her capable hands while I was out of the country. She was thorough in making sure she knew exactly what each pet needed, had excellent communication, and provided me with daily updates. I came home to a house that was even tidier and more organized than when I left and two very loved pets. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a kind, caring, consistent pet sitter. Thank you so much Jill!!!

Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency  and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.

I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail.

First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own.

Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see.

Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back.

I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site!

Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!

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!

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!
