James
Strand, South Africa
Energetic, animal loving, life maximising couple who love to travel and explore
Ruth and James were FANTASTIC--we just couldn't be happier with how they cared for our home and our girls. Our little Lucy, a senior pup with considerable anxiety, actually climbed in their suitcase as they were packing to leave. And our little Sophia, a senior cat who avoids almost everyone, actually spent time in the room with them--very unusual, and an indicator that they were calm and gentle. We got photos and updates every day, which gave us so much comfort and joy while we were away. In addition, our house cleaner and contractor met them and said they were lovely people. :) Thank you, Ruth and James! It'd be our pleasre to see you again.
Barry
Strand, South Africa
House & Pet Sitters
Thank you Barry for taking good care of Joey and Delilah. They both seemed very relaxed on my return. Barry was responsive and organised. He was happy to administer eye drops as Delilah developed an ulcer just before my departure. I imagine Barry could turn his hands to most things and nothing was too much trouble!
Kirsten
Strand, South Africa
Responsible Animal and Travel Lover eager to care for your home and fur babies
Kristy was great! The pets loved her and she took great care of all of them (2 dogs, 1 cat and 2 chicken). The house was clean when I got back and even the garden was nice and tidy. I thus recommend Kristy as a pet and house sitter.
Lauren
Strand, South Africa
Passionate Pet Sitter & Travel Enthusiast
We really got lucky when we accepted Lauren after a relatively short video call. We met her after that (and before the sit started) when she made an effort to overnight our area so we could all get to know one another. She communicated extremely well, was warm yet professional, cared deeply and genuinely about our doggie (and about us!), and was a huge help and resource to a family that came to stay in our other home from overseas. It was their first time in S. Africa, and she did so much to welcome them, help them settle in, trouble shoot things in the home-- as well as in their travels. Lauren spent an additional 2 nights-- the first when we did not make it home on time due to flight cancellation, and the next when we finally got home, but it became too late to be on the road. These were ongoing last minute changes (more than one) and Lauren took it all in stride. Lauren also communicated health concerns to us about our dog, took her to the vet when she had a troublesome wound, and made sure she could comfortable get up and down the stairs with her arthritis. On walks, the stiffness is forgotten, and Lauren kept up so well on free range beach runs. She did not hesitate to take our doggie along to the cafe and to social events, and even got her some luxury birthday treats. We have other sits coming up, arranged before we met Lauren, and I can only hope they go so well. If not, I feel reassured that a back-up might be close by. Huge thanks to Lauren
Jane
Strand, South Africa
Happily married couple who will lovingly care for your home and pets
Jane and John were really fantastic, not only did they give our boys a great time, they had the job of taking care of Sam after a small operation on his foot, he was well cared for. They left the place clean and tidy and cooked us a lovely meal on our return. Please come back soon.........
Ingrid
Strand, South Africa
Animal loving, conscientious sitter available for Long/Short term sits.
From the moment she arrived, Ingrid was clearly focused on caring for my pet and home. Our communication over the time I was gone was easy and Ingrid kept me updated on things at home. She even stayed an extra night when I had a problem with my flight. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone needing a self-sufficient, responsible, and caring pet/house sitter!
Nicole
Strand, South Africa
Animal lover on the move
This was our 1st time leaving our puppy and cat together with a house sitter. We needn't have worried at all. From the beginning Nicole was so easy to communicate with. She looked after the pets fantastically - sending picture updates throughout our time away. The pets seemed to have a great time and our home was spotless on our return. Nicole was fab - thank you again!
Jenny
Strand, South Africa
A desire to travel to new places and combine it with our love of animals.
I was fortunate to meet Jenny and Nigel on two occasions. They are delightful people and most importantly Barnaby, my dog, seemed to like them! I was confident leaving the house and dog with them. When I got home the house was immaculate and Barnaby seemed content. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
Gerard
Strand, South Africa
Trustworthy time proven and professional couple to look after your special pets
Judy and Gerry are just lovely. They took great care of Jerry our dog and Figaro our cat. By the looks of it both pets took a great liking to our sitters. While away we received many photos and feedback as to how the pets are doing. The apartment was in perfect shape when we returned home. Moreover they prepared an excellent meal to share together before their departure. Both Gerry and Judy are wonderful and we recommend them without the slightest hesitation.
richard
Strand, South Africa
I'm a dedicated animal lover with lots of time & energy for your wonderful pets.
Richard agreed to come one day earlier to our home to have enough time to explain everything. We had immediately the impression to be with a friend and spent a very nice evening together. During his stay everything went very well. He informed us regularly that everything was fine and after our return we found our house very clean and tidy. We recommend him warmly as your future housesitter.
Reviews from Pet Owners
Jennifer
Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
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.
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!
Claudine
We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.
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!
Chris
Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. Well done Jacob.
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!
Carole
Elaine was a welcomed sitter for Cyrus and Purrelli. I returned from holiday to find a very content relaxed dog and a happy fat cat. Purrelli doesn’t eat when he is stressed so seeing a little meat on him let me know he was content and happy :) My condo was left clean and in order, all communications were smooth and there was zero issues. Thx for the great pet care Elaine.
