Cat Sitters in Frankston South

Emma

We loved having Emma and hope the stars align again! She left our house in great shape and no complaints from Lyra either.

Mark & Edwina

What can I say? Our fur babies absolutely looooved Mark and Edwina. I got daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when I arrived home. Velvet had medication twice a day. And Edwina had no hesitation in giving two injections a day and pain relief. I would get them back in a heartbeat. Congratulations to anyone who get Mark and Edwina to look after your fur babies. They are in perfect hands.

Rita

I had a good feeling about Rita after calling her about sitting for my cats. She spoke so lovingly of her own pets and passed pets and asked lots of questions, particularly enquiring about rules so as to not disrupt any behaviour training already set for them. She sent lovely photos and videos regularly and was a great comfort to my cats in my month-long absence. The house was clean and tidy and everything in its right place. She is direct and clear in her communications. I would recommend her to anyone.

Jaimes

I was so happy with Jaimes as both housesitter and catsitter. Puss can be temperamental at times but she was well loved and well looked after by Jaimes. I was away for 6 weeks so my anxiety around leaving her was relieved by regular updates, pics and videos. Also, my hot water system imploded while I was away, Jaimes let me know straight away and was so helpful and flexible with getting the new system put in place. I am hopeful that he will be available again the next time I go away. Puss keeps looking out the window and I am certain she is looking to see if he is coming back ☺️

Ruth & Philip

Ruth and Philip were excellent sitters. They communicated beforehand and arrived when we asked, a day early as we were leaving early in the morning. They looked after our cat as if she was their own. We had daily updates and pictures to put our minds at rest that she was settled. The house was left clean and tidy. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Matt & Josie

Matt & Josie house sat for two nights. They were a pleasure to have in our home. Friendly and easy going they had no problem taking to Polly and Luna. They took great care of our pets and our home. We’d be delighted to have them again and highly recommend them for a sit ☺️

Cassandra

We loved having Cassandra and Austin looking after our beloved dog Flash and our house. They were punctual, flexible and helped us accommodate to our needs. Their communication was excellent, we got regular updates (and cute photos of our dog). When we arrived the house was spotless and Flash looked relaxed and happy!. I want to mention that both Cassandra and Austin help us with a flight delayed situation looking after our dog/house beyond their agreed time. I really appreciate their flexibility, empathy and good nature, we felt they genially wanted to help us as we where struggling to get back on time. They stayed with Flash and ensured we had a confirmation flight and only left our doggie very close to our arrival time. Thank you guys! I hope i can have both Cassandra and Austin as our zeewoi again!

Nadine

Nadine and Ian are warm, friendly and genuine people and it was a pleasure to have them in my house. I really enjoyed meeting them and spending some fun time with them before I left for Japan. The house was spotless when I came home and the garden was thriving. Bazz and Ella developed a rapport with Nadine and Ian. The dogs were regularly walked and I was sent lovely photos of them both. I would definitely recommend Nadine and Ian to anybody looking for a wonderful couple to housesit for them.

Tessa

Another fantastic house and furbaby sit by this lovely family. We are so happy we found them as they are just the loveliest people and take great loving care of our furbabies and our home. We highly recommend them to anyone wanting to go away and know your home and dogs are being cared for. Until we need our next breakaway - which is when we will be asking "are you free?" thank you, Tessa, Nic and your sweet boys, we really do appreciate you! From Mike & Beth & Merlin & Reilly

Sue & Nicholas

I had a wonderful pet sit with Sue and Nick for the 2 weeks they stayed. By the time they left, we all felt like good friends! They took care of Buddy - walks, food, meds, playtime etc. like he was their own. They are both so kind-hearted, down to earth, and friendly and Buddy took to them very quickly! Communication was very good, with texts of photos and videos of their time with him. I truly had peace of mind for the full two weeks I was away, which was a tremendous gift! Upon returning, my house was also immaculate, including floors, windows, even my AC filter was cleaned with care by Nick. What a wonderful surprise and way to return home! I highly recommend them for your next sit!

Laura

Laura was reliable and excellent with our cat. She communicated very well, especially when there was a small medical issue with our cat. We felt very comfortable that Penelope was being well looked after and came home to a happy cat and a tidy, clean house.

Zoe

Zoe’s communication is excellent and she responded quickly to my messages which gave me peace of mind. When Zoe and Drew arrived at the house Digby took to them straight away as they were calm and completely natural with him. As he can be an anxious dog I was a little concerned about leaving him with people he didn’t know but it was clear when we got home that Digby had become very attached to Zoe and Drew. As they stayed an extra night with us before going on to their next house sit, I found Digby sitting outside their closed bedroom door staring at it the next morning! I can highly recommend this lovely young couple as they will look after your pets with love and affection.

Rebekah

It was an absolute pleasure to host Francesca and Alexandra. I really appreciated their calm, quiet vibe - it was so reassuring to both Nemo Nemo and me! I could tell right away that Nemo Nemo liked their vibe, because she came out of hiding almost immediately after their arrival! 

Communication with Francesca and Alexandra was so easy, and they were always available through WhatsApp, with photos of Nemo Nemo and little bits of news through their stay. I enjoyed getting their messages, and I could tell they really loved Nemo Nemo. It made me so happy that they were able to experience Nemo Nemo's personality while they were here!

When I arrived home, Nemo Nemo was so relaxed and happy. I could tell from her demeanour that she had felt very comfortable with Francesca and Alexandra, and had enjoyed all the attention they gave her.   

I was also so impressed with how Francesca and Alexandra cared for my apartment while I was away! I wasn't expecting it, but they cared for my garden (which sorely needed it!), mowed the lawn, trimmed bushes, it was incredible! And I came home to find some delicious food prepared in the refrigerator, and my cupboards full! Wow! 

Thank you, Francesca and Alexandra, for your love and care for Nemo Nemo! You are both very special!! <3 <3

Grace

Friendly, communicative, and respectful of the space. Thanks!
