Pet Sitters in Cove, PA

Samantha & Austin

I was thrilled when they were able to come back. Not only do they give so much attention to Beso, who loves them, but they could not be better house guests. Very grateful for situations like this that this app makes possible.

Daniel

Daniel arrived in town a couple days early to ensure no issues arriving. Good communication initially, coming up to and during the sit. I received regular texts with updates and pictures while I was away. House was in good condition, and the pups were healthy & happy to have someone new give them attention and daily walks. I would recommend Daniel to anyone looking for a sitter, and would be happy to have him back to hang out with Ciri & Xena.

Jane & Brian

Jane and Brian took great care of both our girls and provided us with pictures and updates throughout the week. They also took excellent care of our home, even alerting us to an issue with our refrigerator and taking the time to move things from the kitchen to the garage. Highly recommend!

Helen

We had such a wonderful experience with Helen as our housesitter. She is a most unique and interesting person who manages to juggle a demanding job with taking great care of our pets. Both of our animals -- but especially our dog, Gabby -- fell in love with Helen and moped around for a few days after she left. That tells you everything you need to know. We enjoyed getting to know Helen, as she arrived a day or so before we left, and she even played a few pieces on her alphorn -- an instrument we'd never heard played live before. She's an accomplished musician, a wonderful sitter, and a quality person. Much appreciated!

Suzanne

Simply put, Suzanne was the most dependable, competent sitter I have worked with on this site. Never have I felt so at ease about leaving my aging dog with anyone.

Lauren & Jeffrey

Lauren & Jeff were great — my cat needs medication daily and she hates taking her pill, but they made sure she got her meds every night! The house was also perfectly clean when I got home.

Jan

Jan has done many sits for me.... she's great with Beau, the house, communication, neighbors, etc. Very dependable, organized and a wonderful person! Highly recommend!

Vicki

Vicki was an incredible communicator and an amazing sitter for Boone. She sent me pics of her and my cat cuddling (which meant a lot while I was away) and was SO accommodating as to his needs and the needs of the household while I was out of town. I feel so lucky to have found her through this site and would be honored to have her again at any time. She left the house incredibly neat and was such a kind and thoughtful person throughout the stay. Please come back Vicki!!

Deb

Lovely sitters. We came back to a happy cat and a lovely clean home. Would definitely recommend

Abbi & Henry

Abbi was super sweet and helpful and flexible. We decided to foster an additional cat last minute and she rolled with it and followed our instructions through the introduction process and even shared her expertise. Both cats were happy and well taken care of.

Heather

Heather and Jake are amazing sitters. I would highly recommend. Trixie had a fantastic time with them and I felt so comfortable leaving them in my home. They looked after Trix so well I honestly don’t think she missed me! They were also so considerate and respectful of my house. Their communication before, after and during the sit was first class. They are truly wonderful people!

Anabelle & Ezekiel

Anabelle and Ezekiel were easy to coordinate with and did a great job with the house and pets. The house was very clean and the dogs were very happy when we returned home.

Sarah

I had the most amazing time sitting for Sarah and Gerald. They were incredibly welcoming from the start and I very much enjoyed sharing some time with them while they were getting ready to go away. The cottage is absolutely gorgeous, the garden is charming and of course - Basil, Edie and Patch are delightful. They all are so different and sweet, were very well behaved and affectionate. They love their walks in their gardens and pats and being nearby you, and are also quite content having naps in the kitchen! If you get the opportunity to sit for Sarah and Gerald I couldn’t recommend it more highly. A truely magical English home!

Wendy

We thoroughly enjoyed our month housesitting for Wendy and Philip at their home in Canterbury - we were immediately made to feel at home, Wendy took us on a walk along with the land manager Matt, made us coffees, showed us around and even left us a lovely welcome message on the kitchen chalkboard! Pablo, Alba and Piglet were 3 of the most adorable dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of looking after, we fell in love immediately. They were so great with our dog Lando. I loved how close Alba and Pablo and they were the source of endless of entertainment and cuddles (they give the best cuddles). There were so many highlights to the sit, it’s hard to list them all but we loved walking around the land with the dogs, feeding the alpacas, watching TV in front of the wood-burning fireplace and visiting the nearby pubs. We both WFH and the Wi-Fi was fast so great for working professionals as well as travellers. We couldn’t rate this sit more highly, and would definitely recommend to other animal lovers!
