This was the third year in a row James watched our pets. For the third year in a row, we came home to happy and cared for pets and a house that was left in great shape. We trust James; and it is a wonderful feeling. We have old pets. Our little dog is over 15 years old and has some special needs. James handles her like a loving pro. James is a go to person.

Hope and Gerald did a great job taking care of the cats and our home. Hope was great with communication, sending pics of the cats often. She managed the small things that came up, and texted about any bigger questions. She left the house extremely tidy and even washed the sheets!! Would absolutely have her back if she ever wanted. Thanks!

Elizabeth was an excellent sitter. She is clearly an animal lover and was in tune with our cats, especially bonding with Daisy who loves company and cuddles and attention, but also winning over slightly more picky Saffy. Liz kept us informed throughout the sit with photos and news and we came home to two contented and calm cats. The house was neat and tidy, the sheets and towels in the wash, and everything clean. We are glad she liked our area and Bushy Park and made use of our bicycle to explore. We have no hesitation in recommenting Liz and hope to see her again in the future.

Dominik was probably the best pet sitter I have had (out of 10+). He was very flexible and gracious (when I changed the sit), a great communicator and very responsive. He kept my house clean and followed directions to the tee. Dominik asked if it was OK to take my dogs for runs, which he then did every day of the sit. A+ sitter. I hope to have Dominik again soon.

Leslie did a great job taking care of our four cats, our house was neat and clean, and we received lots of pictures from her daily - we can't thank her enough! Aside from an alarm on an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in my office (she has NO blame for this one - it failed while we were gone!), she was self-sufficient and took care of all out plants and paid great attention to the cats!

Marie was a great sitter. She came by just before I left so I could show her around and where the kitty stuff was. She informed me on how the cats were doing during the sit. the Apartment was in great condition when I returned. Cats did notice me coming home, but I could tell they had not wanted for attention from Marie. I recommend her for any sit you have coming up.

Juliet and Laurent were great petsitters! My place was clean and the cats were happy, which is my biggest concern. Juliet was very communicative and sent pics daily along with little comments about Jack and Jamie and how they loved the area around here. I had zero worries about anything, which is always a great feeling while away. I would highly recommend them for any pet sits in the future! Thank you both!😻😻

Jeannette was the absolute best pet sitter anyone could ask for!  She was communicative and easy going.  She took very good care of the house, but most importantly she took superb care of my dog, Bodhi.  She took him on long walks and fun adventures everyday.  While I was out of the country, I received pictures and updates of their "vacation".  I loved seeing Bodhi's and Jeannette's smiles in all the photos.  They definitely bonded. :)  I would highly recommend Jeannette as a pet sitter and also as an excellent person who cares about people, animals, and the planet.

Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.

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.

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.

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!

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith!

I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away.

Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable.

In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture.

I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

Deboraj took great care of the apartment and of our goofy unsociable cat. She went out of her way to bring catnip and make friends with Rowan. She communicated often and cared to be as good a house and pet sitter as could be. I can gladly recommend her highly to anyone else looking.
Thank you Deborah.
