Melissa was what was expected. No surprises. Happy and healthy pup when we returned
Patricia (and her son) were wonderful sitters for Odis. Patricia was very communicative about her timing and availability, and very flexible to meet our travel schedule (including arriving very early before our flight to be able to meet our anxious dog before we left!). It was clear that Odis was very comfortable with her from the start and she had no issues with taking care of a big dog. She asked all the right questions and made sure she was prepared. She sent notes about very 24 hours to check in and let us know all was well, which we appreciated. Patricia left our home spotless as well. We’d love to have Patricia back in the future.
I had such a lovely time staying at Estella’s with Nessie. Estella’s apartment was comfy and clean. Nessie is such a sweet dog. She is super calm and just wants to be around you. I loved having the park so close so Nessie and I could go for walks there and have picnics when the weather was nice. As well, all of the directions were super easy to follow. The neighborhood is nice with the park down the street and lots of coffee shops/bakeries, and the metro so close. I highly highly recommend this house/dog sit! Thanks so much for having me Estella!
Brenda had everything in her welcome packet and we communicated before I even got to Austin. I felt so comfortable about this sit before I got there. Her home and location were more than I expected. I could walk to everything. Coffee, restaurants, ice cream, grocery. And a great walking trail. Her home was clean and inviting. Her two adorable kitties, Punkin and Rumpus were a hoot. Very entertaining and so sweet and became my best pals. Brenda left great instructions for watering the outside. I would love to return for another sit. Thank you so much for choosing me to care for Punkin and Rumpus.
Not sure where to start here. I have been waiting TH to reply to me but have not heard so will post this review. It was a housesit from hell. Started with Sue showing her short temper and having a meltdown due to ' her words - overwhelmed by the all that she had to do before leaving', to smelling cat urine constantly due to a cat peeing at the bottom of the stairs most every night, to watching the oldest cat cry in pain, to fixing the fence so the cats can't get out and the raccoons can't get in. Something she should have fixed. I believe Sue is taking total advantage of 'free' housesitters thru this site and would discourage anyone from taking this on.
CJ and Allen were such gracious hosts!! They went above and beyond to help me feel settled and prepared for my first sit. Kona and Mali were little angels - always game for cuddles, pets, and a quick jaunt outside. The hens were a real treat too! The location of the house is cozy and private, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Come get lost on Whidbey Island by sitting for CJ and Allen, it's a priceless experience :-)

Great dog-sitter! Our four-year-old beagle enjoyed staying with Luana in Lugano.
Luana is a very good girl! Not only super respectful of the dogs, but also very affectionate with them, you can see that she cares, and this is the huge difference compared to most kennels, the fact that the dog is in company and super pampered all the time, treated exactly like home. I left my dog with her for a long weekend (3 days, 2 nights) and he almost didn't want to come home😂 Highly recommended♥️
What can I say, Luana, her partner and their two splendid dogs are nothing short of wonderful!! They are decidedly scrupulous and attentive to the needs and complete well-being of each guest. Our dog was welcomed as part of the family, he immediately felt at home, every time he realizes that we are going to Peace&Dog he is full of enthusiasm! They gave us the tranquility and serenity of being able to leave our big dog with a light heart and without any worries, in case he can't come with us. In short, true magic made of skill, simplicity and a huge heart ♥️ We can only recommend this wonderful place made up of wonderful people and dogs 🌟
Liana came to pick up my Cippi, a 6 year old Golden, directly from home for about 5 hours. We introduced ourselves the day before and Cippi immediately got along with Luana and her two sweet fur babies. There is a small garden where our friends can play and run. Very positive experience and I will definitely use it again in the future. Well done Luana!!! A hug to all three.
Very nice and very professional. After an initial meeting to get to know each other and introduce our dogs, my mixed breed was welcomed into the house by Luana together with hers. They all have full access to areas of the house and a large garden to run around freely. Luana is very attentive and very affectionate with all furry friends.
Professional, dog lover and helpful! He is taking care of my 2 American Akitas. and I'm happy with how she approached the two of them ☀️
Finally, it's nice to have someone trustworthy in the area who can take care of my baby when I'm not around
We trusted Ringo to keep our carlina Rosalia while my wife and I were on an appointment in the center of Lugano. Delightful person, very helpful.
Very good, you can see that they love animals, they took care of my cat who doesn't rely easily but he proved to be playful with them, precise and good with timetables, they know how to make you feel safe for any type of request!!
Kind and professional
Very professional
Mrs. Pitton, the Global Pet Sitter can only marvel at your review. We have never had contact of any kind with her. You are certainly the wrong company, so we invite you to remove your review. Best regards Global Pet Sitter Team
Highly recommend, Luz is great and gentle with my dog 🤗 and he absolutely loves her🫶🏼. She’s one of the very few people I trust for his care. …
Luz from Pet Sitting Lugano took care of our little one when we went on vacation, her communication was constant with videos and photos, at all times we felt safe with her care. We highly recommend her, we will soon take our little one to be cared for again.
I am very thankful I have found Luz and her company. My golden retriever who is anxious without me is provided the best care. Extremely loving and sensitive to his needs, I could not be happier to have found someone who I can leave my dog with and know he is well taken care of and provided with everything he needs. It is a very good feeling to be able to go away knowing your dog is in the best hands.
Luz is beyond kind and loving with my dogs. There are truly no one else I would trust to leave them with in Lugano. She is great at following instructions and takes constructive feedback as a professional. We are so lucky to have found her! Thank you thank you.
We had an amazing experience, she took ash out all the time and gave him lots of love and care and playing, I couldn’t ask for a better day for my dog ash to have, you could see she put a lot of effort into building a relationship with him. Highly recommend!
Luz was lovely with our pup and sent numerous pics and updates throughout the weekend. Our dog was well cared for and I am happy to know we can call her again!
Had a great experience with Luz and watching our dog Teddy. She made sure to send us update pictures and was quick to respond when we reached out. Our dog is very timid and needs love and time to adjust but we did not see any sadness from him from our daily updates. Teddy was even able to sleep in bed with Luz which is what he does at home! Great overall experience! Will use again 😊
Luz is great. I left my puppy with her for one afternoon. Everything went well, she sent me videos and pictures during the hours she was taking care of Lilo and at the end I could see that Lilo really liked her. I highly recommend her and Lilo is looking forward for the next time! 🤗❤️
we give highest possible recommendation to Ms.Luz and her team! Care is both professional - and Loving. we have two dogs with distinctly different personalities; both responded very well to Luz Team care!
100% reccommend Luz to look after your furry ones. My giant dog loves her to pieces and I always get cute pictures to reassure me while I am away. There have been a couple of last minutes change of plans and Luz has been very accomodating with this. I feel very comfortable going on holiday with Luz taking care of my dog.
Janina is the kind of person every pet parent wishes they could meet. My little dog Lilo LOVES spending the day with Janina, Milo and Blu. Every time I pick him up he doesn't want to leave and whenever we pass by her building he runs to Janina's door wagging his tail. Janina is very available and always responds quickly. When she takes care of Lilo, she sends me photos and videos constantly. I trust her 100% and recommend her work with my eyes closed. Recently Janina even organized Christmas photos of the dogs with a professional photographer and it was a really cool experience When Lilo is at Janina’s Pet Care I don't worry, because I know he's having fun and being very well taken care of! ❤️🙏
Janina is an outstanding dog sitter, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she gives to my dog Lexi. From the start, her professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals put me at ease. Janina takes the time to understand Lexi’s needs and routine, ensuring she feels comfortable and well-cared-for. Lexi adores her, and I can tell she’s always thrilled to see Janina. Knowing Lexi is with someone so trustworthy and caring brings me real peace of mind. I highly recommend Janina to anyone looking for the perfect dog sitter!🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🐶🐶🐶🐾🐾
Janina is an absolutely outstanding pet sitter! We trusted her with our dachshund Jimmy and she exceeded our expectations - Janina went above and beyond to keep us updated, make our dog special food since he’s a picky eater, and ensured that he uses stairs for getting up/down the couches or beds (since dachshunds have fragile spines). She is an incredible pet sitter and an all around true dog lover. Janina has so much experience with handling a couple of dogs at a time and making sure they all behave and play in a sweet and gentle manner. She spoils all dogs with endless toy options and fun enrichment activities as well as healthy treats that they love! There is no one I trust more than Janina to watch our Jimmy! 🐶🤍
Janina is truly amazing with dogs, my dog ash loves her and feels safe with her, one of the most reliable people I’ve ever met! She puts a lot of effort to ensure that the dogs she cares for gets plenty enrichment and structure, I highly recommend her!
Fantastic Dog Sitter – Highly Recommend! We couldn’t be happier with Janina’s Pet Care. She took amazing care of our dog, while we were away. We got regular photo updates, and our shepherd looked happy and relaxed in every one. He’s allergic to a lot of dog food types and Janina was very attentive to follow his restrictive diet. It’s clear she’s experienced, reliable, and genuinely care about pets. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and professional sitter!
We have had the honor of using Janina since we moved to Lugano. She had welcomed our timid Teddy with nothing but love and support in his time of need. We never had to worry about anything in regard to Teddy while he was with Janina. She was always communicative and ensure Teddy was well loved and taken care of. He was cuddled and loved so much each time. He even accepted being a city dog! Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Janina is always available and loves dogs. Mochi is happy to spend time with Janina, Milo and Blu every day, whether for a simple walk, a lively afternoon of day care or longer overnight stays.
Janina is a super professional Pet Care professional, serious and loving. My Nala loves it! If we are out of town, we feel at ease in entrusting our dog to his care. 100% recommended!
When I'm away for the weekend or on holiday and my Cooper can't come with me he stays with Janina and his Milo and Blu. Cooper is very happy to be with them and I know that Janina knows how to handle him even when sometimes he isn't at home behaves very well. Highly recommended.
Janina is exceptional, I leave my dog with her all day and she takes care of it impeccably! She offers lots of games and stimuli and is always willing to meet my needs and those of my puppy🥰 Super recommended! …
Luz is a very attentive girl, very sweet, responsible and establishes a unique bond with animals ❤️
He gave me confidence from the first moment, a love! Thank you!
I would highly recommend Zen Dogsitting. They are wonderful with my two cats and are trustworthy, reliable and all around amazing. They’re flexible and always make sure my boys are happy and well-cared for. The daily updates and good communication are top notch. Thank you for everything!
The kindest and most reliable people who takes the greatest care of our beloved dog. I have recommended Dogsitting Agno to all my friends in Ticino. I especially appreciate the daily updates with pictures and videos <3
Professional and super efficient service, Elsa, my bulldog found herself at home, in a comfortable environment full of love and cuddles. Highly recommended, I will definitely contact them in the future when I can't take it with me.
I thank Dogsitting Zen, especially Paola and her family for welcoming and looking after Kira. Super organised, available. Thanks for the help!!
Simply fantastic! I left my Amy with her for the first time and I already knew I could trust her 100%. I received photos every day with a description of the day. Reliable and helpful, I highly recommend!
Many times when we return to Ticino for a weekend or a week's holiday we leave it with them, because we know how much Numa feels at home, but above all I'm really happy to have met them! I would recommend them to anyone!!!! ❤️ 🐶🐾
Reliable, helpful, kind and fast. Super recommended!!
Our Hera felt very well looked after and was well looked after - highly recommended!
Very kind and helpful! We highly recommend!
Fantastic.
