Cat Sitters in Mendon, MA

Caroline

Caroline and her boyfriend were lovely! They sent us pictures with Timmy and left everything clean and tidy. We would happily welcome them back!

Vamsi

Vamsi was the perfect Housesitter. Attentive, responsive, tidy and took amazing care of Pinny. He sent photos from walks, sent check ins and asked any questions before assuming. We’ve had a few Housesitter’s and he’s been the best. We would absolutely recommend him anytime and we know Pinny would be happy to have him back.

Silja & Beatriz

Silja and Beatriz were fantastic sitters, and were especially flexible and understanding as a winter storm affected travel arrangements for our long weekend trip. Everything was clean and tidy when we got back, and Katie was very chilled, a true sign that Silja and Beatriz are excellent pet carers. I would definitely as, them back for a future sit!

Katherine

Kate was an exceptional house sitter, providing us with complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with plenty of photos of Zeus and treated him to numerous long walks, spoiling him rotten! Kate was always accessible if we had any queries. Upon our return, we were thrilled to find our home immaculate and spotless. We wholeheartedly invite Kate to return anytime!

Christina

Christina looked after our cat and apartment while we were abroad for a month. She was wonderful! Organised, responsible, tidy, a great communicator and a true animal lover. While we were away, we received regular texts with photo updates of our fur baby living his best life. He was so happy that when we returned he gave no indication we’d been missed at all. And when Christina dropped by a few days later to return our keys, he was clearly very happy to see her! She kept the place clean and tidy and our plants are now looking healthier than they have in years. It can be a bit nerve wracking entrusting a complete stranger with looking after your pet and home but Christina is one person I can confidently recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind when they’re away, knowing that their pets and home will be really well cared for.

Julia & Vishal

Julia and Vishal did a wonderful job for us. They were very flexible, arriving at our house right on schedule, with enough time for us to show them around. We are away for quite a long time, so needed to split the sit between two sitters. They did the trade-off to the next sitter without a hitch, adjusting their schedule to allow for overlap and giving a really thorough tour for the new sitter. He said the house was left in perfect shape - like no one had even been there. And Springer the cat seems to have taken to them right away. We're really appreciative - thank you Julia and Vishal!

Myriam

Myriam was an excellent sitter and truly deserves an 11/10 rating. She was a great communicator, giving us frequent updates of our cat Finn, and even bought him some new food when she realized he wasn’t eating his normal wet food. (He now loves his second meal option!) Myriam was very attentive to Finn’s needs and also left our apartment in fantastic condition upon our arrival back home. She even left us printed pictures of Finn during her stay which we loved! Myriam would be welcome back anytime!!

Christine & Brian

Christine and Brian were champion house sitters. Our dog has a very serious medical issue (his first ever seizure) while they were with him, and they made sure he got the emergency care he needed right away while keeping in constant communication with us. In the lead up to the sit, they were also very organized and communicative. They were ideal sitters.

Iryna

Iryna took such great care of my large anxious dog!! She was very communicative and gave me great updates and photos while I was away. Bubbles was really happy and well taken care of! Would happily have Iryna back to take care of my dog and home!

Bennett

Bennet was the perfect pet sitter. He took excellent care of all three dogs and my home. I highly recommend him.

Ellen

Ellen and her daughter were the best! They cared for my Rooney so well. They played with him and took him for tons of walks and adventures. They left the house as if they hadn’t been there. I highly recommend Ellen and her daughter to house for your fur babies:)

Matine Khalighi

Matine was only able to meet Bruc one time as the poor dog passed suddenly the night prior to Matine's arrival. A very unhappy situatioin for me. However Matine clearly interacted beautifully with Bruc on the meet and greet and he took excellent care of the apartment and was organized and caring in all communication. I was extremely happy having him as a sitter and would highly recommend him.

Rebecca

Really grateful for Jacob's flexibility with our ever-changing schedule. He was great at communicating and sending photos of our pup. House was just as clean as we left it.

Zarina is a rock star.  I had a last-minute weekend opportunity to see a dear friend, and she replied that she was available.  ( note- this was just a few days before my weekend trip!).   I was super busy getting ready to go,  and we had glitches occur on the housesitter site as far as the Welcome information.. but all worked out well.  We chatted on the phone and figured it all out.    I didn't get to meet her, or partner Martin or dog Coco, but I got a couple of pictures and texts and all was well!   Mikey, my cat is not very familiar  or comfortable with dogs, and initially I was bit concerned, but Zarina reassured me he is pretty quiet and would not harrass my cat. :)   When I got home, Mikey was totally fine! He was happy, I could tell he had gotten plenty of attention.  The place was clean! What more could I ask for! ?!  I highly recommend Zarina!
