Glenda and Martin were amazing pet sitters for my 3 girls. Before the actual sitting started we made arrangements for Glenda and Martin to meet the dogs as the dogs are rather large and they can be a bit intimidating when met all together, but Glenda and Martin were so natural with them and obviously liked them from the start and our girls relaxed very quickly with them. Glenda and Martin stayed with us for roughly an hour getting to know how we handled the girls and how the girls responded to their instructions, and I think were very pleased that the girls were so good. We explained the differences in them and medication requirements etc. and Glenda and Martin took it all on board. We made a second date for Glenda and Martin to come back and take the girls for a walk as they are big and a sitter needs to know if they are easy enough to walk. The girls passed their test, they are not perfect but if you know of any problems and how to respond to them then that is most of the battle won. The day came for us to leave for our break and as usual Glenda and Martin arrived in time for us to feed the girls before we left as we needed to show them how the girls get fed, i.e. where they like to sit and they have to wait before they get the command to eat. All went well and off we went. During our time away (1 week) Glenda kept me informed with texts and videos and photos regarding the girls and they all seem to have got on very well, so well that I thought the girls would have their bags packed and want to live with Glenda and Martin. We would be very happy to have Glenda and Martin sit for our girls any time, they were clean and tidy and left the house as they found it. This was the first time we have used a sitter and found the proposition of leaving someone in our home a bit daunting, but have got to say that our sitters left us happy to leave our home and our precious girls in their care. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

David had a bit of a learning curve, being mostly used to taking care of dogs, but he was a trooper and even got some advice from friend of his on how to give our kitty a pill. He definitely took the job seriously, and was on time, communicative, genuinely pleasant and very neat. He even washed the sheets and linens and turned over the guest room that he had been staying in… bonus!

Sage came and stayed at our house over the Christmas/New Year Holidays and watched our 3 dogs, 3 birds, and bearded dragon.  Not a small task!  She was thoughtful and sent us updates with photos, and always made sure we felt comfortable with how things were going at home.
I would strongly recommend Sage as a sitter for your home.  She was responsible, honest, and was really great with your pets.  We would totally have her stay again!

From our initial messages and video chat, we knew Annie & Nyree were qualified for house/pet sitting. Their compassion and affection for animals is evident.  They walked in our home and immediately greeted our pets with open arms.  We have no doubts that our four-leggers were well cared for.  Our Ridgeback, Skidboot, took long morning walks which was very important to us (and to Skidboot). We received a few photos and the house was very clean upon our return.  Thank you Annie and Nyree.
