Pet Sitters in Leichhardt

Lauren

Lauren was absolutely amazing in caring for my fur babies. From the moment they met her you could see they were so comfortable with her. Apart from caring for Marli and JJ, Lauren left my home clean and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending her for any house sitting and would welcome her back anytime.

Chloe

Chloe was an amazing sitter for my two cats. She stepped in when I had to take a last minute trip, and I left feeling reassured the cats were in good hands. She was reliable, communicative, warm, friendly, and self-sufficient. She sent me regular updates and I could tell my cats enjoyed her company and care. She left my place neat and tidy and went above and beyond in taking care of the apartment and my kitties. Would highly recommend!

mel

Thank you Mel for taking care of my two doggies and house sitting for me. My poochies were well cared for, walked, given treats, had lots of attention and were happily snoozing when I got home. I highly recommend Mel and hope she can sit for me again. Thanks again from me, Raffie and Moet!

Mireya & Mark

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend Mireya and Mark enough for their outstanding house sitting and pet sitting services! They took care of my furbaby, Giselle, for two months, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. From the moment I met them, I could tell Giselle was in loving and capable hands. They showered her with so much love and attention that I think she hardly missed me! Not only was Giselle incredibly well-cared for, but my home was spotless when I returned. Mireya and Mark left everything clean and tidy, exceeding all my expectations. If you're looking for trustworthy, caring, and meticulous house sitters who will treat your pet like their own, look no further than Mireya and Mark. They truly went above and beyond, and I am so grateful for their exceptional care. Thank you, Mireya and Mark, for everything!

Anna & Dmitry

Anna was very responsive, and kept me posted on our pets! She and Dimitri were friendly and tidy, and the house was left in a clean and tidy condition, and the dogs were well taken care of with lots of cuddles !

Tatiana

Tatiana was amazing! She looked after our cat and house as if it was her own. She was easy to communicate with and updated us with photos and videos which was reassuring. She also left the house clean and tidy. Would highly recommend Tatiana for any house or pet sitting needs!

Paula

Paula is so wonderful!! She took such great care of our cat while we were away, she was so prompt and thorough in her communication throughout the sit, and she left the house spotless. We highly recommend her!

Jo & Victor

Thank you so much again Jo and Victor - came home to a beautifully clean house and a happy Ruby pup. It’s been so nice to go away with peace of mind that Ruby is happy and it was lovely that Ruby recognised and felt comfortable with you from the previous time you doggy house sat for her! I would highly recommend Jo and Victor they are such a lovely friendly dog loving couple and totally reliable. They have been really thoughtful and have juggled their own plans to fit in with us and our holiday and arrangements. So very grateful Thank you thank you

Paula & Emre

Paula & Emre were wonderful house/animal sitters, and we highly recommend them as house/animal sitters . They had two households of pets to care for in our and our son's family absence. They arrived a couple of days early to learn the ropes and make sure they knew all the jobs required. On our return we found all animals were well cared for and the house in excellent order. There were a few difficulties for them, like a work dog that needed special attention due to a healing broken pelvis, or a pony that needed dietary management. They managed to take on all challenges diligently and cheerfully. Thanks so much Paula and Emre for leaving being wonderful Housesitters.

LÉA

Lea was a great pet sitter. She was very friendly, and when our plans changed instead of going out of town she still took our dogs for long walks each day and gave them a bath after going to the beach. She was self sufficient getting here from the airport by bus, and she got around using the bus or walking when we were gone. We would definitely ask Lea back again to watch our girls!

Yuliia & Lucas

Yuliia and Lucas were great cat sitters. We came home to a very calm, happy Petee the cat. They left the house nice and clean and kept us informed on how things were going. We would highly recommend Yuliia and Lucas as pet sitters.

Tamsin

We had an absolutely wonderful time looking after Chip for Tamsin and Kevan. This was an exceptionally comfortable sit, with a beautiful, light, spacious unit within walking distance to two beaches and two minutes from the bus.

But most importantly Chip was an absolute sweetie. We've looked after over 100 cats and she was definitely one of our favourites! She was unusually affectionate and gentle and liked being around us much of the time. We would highly recommend sitting for Tamsin, Kevan and Chip, especially if you are true cat lovers!

Heidi

Lovely home with sweet boys!

Allison

Great location and awesome cats!
They are very low maintenance but definitely love attention. I would highly recommend this pet setting opportunity for any cat person. 
Cats/apartment/communication/location - 10/10 for all.

Eugene

Rojo was a dream to sit for! He’s super chill and a great companion for exploring the neighbourhood. He was great with other dogs and people we met around the parks who all absolutely loved him. Gene and Jim were so welcoming and they have a beautiful home in a safe location. Thanks for having me!

Maeve & Bruce

I had an incredible time here taking care of Shelby and the chickens… Maeve and Bruce went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. The surroundings and views are magical… complete peace and serenity. Shelby is the sweetest dog and it was a matter of minutes before I fell in love with her. I would definitely recommend and would go back again if I could :)

Stephanie

Stephanie made time to meet at her apartment for a rundown of the space, her two sweet girls, and all of the buildings amenities. She was easy to reach and communicate with when I had questions or concerns. Her place is very central to everything downtown with a beautiful rooftop view of the city at night. Overall I enjoyed my time there and would sit for her again.
