My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment.  They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay.  It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets.  They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions.  Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue.  As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary.  When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort.  We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters.  We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool.  (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!)  On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home.  Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Patricia was terrific from first contact all the way through. She was incredibly communicative and flexible as my travel plans remained somewhat up in the air. What's more, she left our apartment sparkling and the cats healthy and happy as when I left. She's a kind and reliable person who I'd happily have again. Thank you Trish !!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nick and Gina's home, very comfortable stay, no problems at all, we would love to have stayed longer! Their three dogs were amazing, very friendly and obedient too. We have never experienced dogs that could run so fast! We hopefully look forward to helping Nick and Gina out in the future when they may need house-sitters again. Murray and Jane, Australia

Nossa estada foi incrível, fomos muito bem recepcionados por Linda e seu esposo. A casa é acolhedora, confortável, limpa e perfeita para nossa estadia. Luna e Reuben são amáveis e a melhor companhia que poderíamos ter tido. Obrigada Linda por ter nos recepcionado tão bem…

Rachel
I had a wonderful time with Rylee for 6 days! She’s a sweetie who mostly just wants to hang out wherever you are. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and located very close to Riverside Park, which was great for walking Rylee. Everything went smoothly and Rachel was easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

Linzi
Our stay at Linzi and Terry was just awesome. We couldn't imagine how anybody should do a better job then they did. They were really kind and caring, but also let us enough room for ourselves. Their pets (Frith & Suki) are very well behaved, we could take them with us to many trips without any problems. The big, bright "gingerbread-house" from both is in a very good condition and we had a lot of space for us. They were also giving us nice recommendations for nice places to go.
Both made us a very, very nice time in Quincy, we were loving it!

Pascale
I really had a nice time at Pascale’s home. The dogs are completely adorable and very well behaved. Misty is super affectionate and Gigi is so smart, perfect dogs! The house is well located to visit Toulouse and you are also very close to the canal where you can walk the dogs. Would come back anytime, I highly recommend this sit! And thanks again Pascale for everything!

Lauréanne
From the moment we skyped Laureanne and Francois to apply for their cat sit, we felt their warmth and friendliness, they stood out as easy-going and interested in providing us with the best information possible. Communication from the beginning is extremely important, and Laureanne and Francois  were prompt and helpful throughout the whole process.
 Laurannne provided us with a very comprehensive  'Welcome Pack' for Mark and I, which really helped with not only knowing what Paillette their cat enjoyed and her routines, but also going into great depth with information about everything we needed to know, including parking our car etc. She even went to the trouble of organising parking cards for us to use which were needed on some occassions.
We had a long drive from the north of Germany to get to Lausanne and when we arrived, we were surprised and spoilt with a delicious tradtional meal from the region, cooked superbly by Francois.
Their apartment is very homely, it's quiet even though it's on a busy street and they left the apartment very clean and tidy for us to use.  
Bonding with Paillette was extremely easy, as she's such a delight and she's super friendly. :) She loved playing lots of games such as hide and seek and was always around us which we really enjoyed as we miss owning our own cat!
We throughly recommend Lauranne and Francois as a perfect housesit, we couldn't have been happier in every way and Paillette is an amazing cat. 
Thanks again to you both!. We hope to get the opportunity to house/cat sit again for you in the future, it was such a pleasure.
