We had almost decided on another housesitter for a recent family vacation when we got a message from Liz, who travels with her dog Buster. Our dogs love other dogs and we thought the addition of a play pal would really help ease any anxiety they had in our absence, even though there’s always a little concern with adding another dog in the mix we decided it was worth a shot and boy did it work out swimmingly! We have always felt that our dogs have been well taken care of with TH, but this is the first time we’ve been away and had daily professional photographic documentation that they were also having mega FUN in our absence! Liz took all the pups out on 3mi minimum hikes every day and facilitated a ton of play and cuddle time at home. I think our girls both fell in love with sweet Buster, he’s 11 so totally mellow and even keeled- he got along perfectly with both Reaux who loves to rough house and Cece who is a lot more mellow. His stint here may help me convince my husband we need another dog! It was a real treat for us to get to travel without any of the usual anxiety that the dogs weren’t getting enough exercise or play time- we are pretty active and they are used to being tired/happy all the time so it’s usually our biggest concern. Liz took such great care of our home and property through two winter storms with several inches of snow, and successfully finished off a 30 course of antibiotics with both of our dogs. We had a little bit of a hectic exit from the house to leave for our trip and she was so sweet to even fold a load of laundry we had in the dryer and take care of a few other loose ends- really above and beyond! As usual with TH- our home was in gorgeous condition when we returned and we couldn’t be more grateful for the respect and attention paid. Thanks Liz for all the love you showed our dogs and our home! And especially for the incredible pics- they were such a treat. Wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Liz and Buster to anyone looking for a great house sitter and dog buddy combo! We’re so thrilled with how well things went we will actively seek out other TH sitters traveling with their pets in the future. 10/10, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hope to see you guys again some time! Love, Laura & John, Cece & Reaux

Wow! Ruoyi took care of our house, pets, and plants like they were her own. She communicated well by sending us photos of the cats every other day and reported some pet incidents light-heartedly. On her last day, she went out of her way to ask how our bedlinens get freshened—with another set or current one laundered. Nobody had ever asked that question before, including our friends staying at our home. Before she left, we received a rundown report with checkmarks. She’s beyond organized and a great communicator with a calm personality. You won’t find anyone better!

Patrice and Brad were the perfect housesitters!  They took lovely care of my fussy little dog and provided the kindest updates while I was away.  They left the house spotless and well cared for.  I wouldn't hesitate to have Patrice and Brad housesit for you!  Thanks to both of you!

This was a fun sit for my wife, Maria and myself! Cuthbert is such a chilled cat, Relaxing around the house, on his favorite rug or chair only to venture out to the balcony for his daily son. 

Katie provided excellent person to person and Instructions in our welcome package prior to their leaving and everything was clear and simple. 

Katie and John’s flat was comfy and tidy and would be a great stay for any couple or single person. Ditchingham was a lovely village making this a memorable trip for anyone. 

We also enjoyed our short car ride to Norwich which is a great small town where we spent the afternoon among the many interesting small shops in “the Lanes”, A great town to visit If you have never been there before!

Overall, this was a wonderful stay, with Maria and Katie keeping in nearly daily communication on WhatsApp. Thank you, Katie and John!

What a beautiful home Kelli & Tony have! Aggie was an absolute darling to look after. 
They had everything we needed and more, and were super helpful throughout the stay. 
Would definitely sit for them again!

I really recommend sitting for Panther. He is a playful and sweet cat, fun to be with. Sarah is very kind and the communication with her was fluent and easy. Her place is cozy and homey and the location is very convenient to spend some time in London. I had a very good time, thank you Sarah.

Julie, Bobby, their daughter and Bodhi are absolutely amazing! We connected so easily and I felt so welcome in their home. Because they used to Airbnb, they were prepared with the perfect space for me to stay and all the amenities, and had a binder with things to do around the city, recommendations for places to eat, etc. They even let me stay an extra night after they got home, included me in a delicious homemade dinner, and are just so genuine. I couldn’t have felt more comfortable.

Bodhi is an absolute gem of a dog. He greeted at at the door with a smile and wagging tail as if we were already best friends. He loved going on long walks around the city park in the mornings, and for sunset walks in the evenings. We played in the backyard where he would be so silly with the zoomies. He loves snuggling up and proving that connection, and just the kind of dog I dream of having.

Could not recommend more highly :)
