Pet Sitters in Groningen

Annita

Anita was the dream package. Very capable. Immaculately clean and loved our animals. She had total respect for our home. Definitely recommend her! Hope she comes back!

Karina & Ton

We have only good things to say about Karina and Ton ! We felt from the outset that our house, garden and Gaston would be in very good hands with them. And so it was, no doubt. We wish them many happy sits, and first and foremost hope to have them back to sit for us again !!!

Yvonne & Jeroen

Yvonne and Jeroen were fantastic - so caring, considerate and they did everything to make sure the cats were well looked after, including missing their New Years plans to stay with the cats who were scared of the fireworks. They were independent, communicated well and left the apartment incredibly clean, as well as leaving loads of deliciously baked goodies for us on our return. Delightful pair and I would highly recommend them or have them back to cat-sit anytime. So grateful for their professional and loving approach. Thanks again Yvonne and Jeroen

Annette

Me and Tama were happy with Annette in our home. Annette is a very friendly animal lover. You know that your house and animal being well taken care of when she's around. Thank you Annette, hopefully we see you another time.

Jolanda & Jan

Jolanda & Jan are great petsitters. Super friendly, reliable, helpful and very good with cats. Would definitely recommend them.

Jantine

Jantine looked after our two rabbits over a long weekend and she was great! Jantine is a really nice person, who was very communicative before and during the house sit. She looked after our pets and the house very well, leaving everything clean and the buns happy. Thanks Jantine!

Kenji

Kenji and Reineke were so easy to work with. Felt like they really cared about our big and energetic dog, making sure he had plenty of play and exercise. They always communicated very readily through the app, took time prior to the sit to meet us and our dog, and were handy fixing any glitches such as when the dog damaged a sprinkler. They went the extra mile watering our garden when the automated system broke down. I would be happy to have Kenji and Reineke sit for us here again. Highly recommend.

Elisa & Janis

Elisa and Janis were the perfect house sitters. They were very tidy and conscious. Elisa sent me updates every day with videos and photos of Rio. The house was lovely and tidy when they left. Rio clearly loved them as much as they did him. I would highly recommend them as house sitters.

Jesse

Jesse was wonderful! I know it is a challenge to care for 3 dogs (especially walking 3 dogs) and Jesse mastered the task with flying colors. The dogs loved him and miss him. He took good care of the house and garden. He was polite, friendly, considerate and sent me wonderful photos and videos of the dogs. I highly recommend Jesse.

Manon

Manon and Thomas came to pet sit our little cat Perdy while we visited Europe for a month and we were very impressed! They kept us up to date with how Perdy was by sending us regular photographs, and were very helpful in keeping our house kept while we were away. They were so friendly and very reliable and responsive to our messages and made the whole process very easy and lovely! Would definitely recommend these two for anyone who needs a pet sitter !

Maria

Maria and Benny looked after our cat and dog for the weekend and they were great. They arrived the night before as we had an early train and took great care of the pets and the house. We got regular updates and the house was very tidy when we got home. Maria had even left us a Spanish tortilla which was lovely!

Emmie & Erik

It was reinsuring to know that Emmie and Erik would come again for their second sit. They love the place and animals like it would be their own and I never worry while away. Thanks a lot and until October!

Alison

My mum and I truly enjoyed looking after Sooty, he is by far the best dog we have ever looked after. He has a lovely gentle nature, is extremely well behaved, socially brilliant, and no trouble at all! Paul & Alison welcomed us into their home with dinner, and have everything you could need for a comfortable sit. They were very accomodating and adaptable; especially as we couldn't mow the lawn like they would have preferred, and even gave up their own bedroom for us to use. Their home is well located for visiting Jane Austen's house, is surrounded by lots of wonderful walks, and nearby you will find a local farm with an excellent milkshake bar! We would absolutely recommend this sit, we were very sad to leave sweet little Soot!

Geoffrey

I adored this 'Sit', the pet, the pet parents and the garden!

Geoff, Nancy and sweet Peeny, made my job easy from the getgo! 

It was delightful to share their garden with Penny, relatives and friends. 

Geoff and Nancy gave me clear, easy to follow instructions and I left having a super positive experience.  

It was all just great. Highly recommend them and the location! 

Thank you both so much for all your excellent communication and generosity! Your house is a very welcoming home as well!
