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.

Sonya looked after my cat Noah while I was away for a weekend.
Sonya came to my house to meet me and Noah a few days before my departure and I knew straight away I was going to be able to go away with total peace of mind. 
From the questions she was asking it was obvious that Sonya is extremely caring, responsible and experienced in looking after people's homes and pets. Noah took to her straight away and showed her his belly very quickly for some petting.
While I was away Sonya kept very regular contacts and sent me beautiful pictures of Noah.
When I came back my place was perfectly tidy and clean, and Noah looked so content that I am not sure he even noticed I went away. He obviously had a great time with Sonya, it was like a little holiday for him too!
Not only would I highly recommend Sonya, but if she wants to look after your pets and home, I would look no further. She is the perfect pet/house sitter! She is very friendly, extremely easy to talk to, gives you feedback once you come back on your pet's behaviour.
What I like about Sonya is her obvious love for animals and how she knows how to interact with them. Keeping pets happy and comfortable to avoid as much stress as possible is obviously very important to her. 
Sonya is reliable, trustworthy, honest, competent, experienced, caring, reliable. She is just great. If Noah could talk he would definitely agree with me, and his behaviour towards her proves it!
Thank you so much Sonya for looking after Noah and making it so easy on me to leave him behind feeling so confident he was left in the best possible hands. 
You are a wonderful pet sitter!

We loved getting to know Ruth and Mora! And we were both sad when it came time to leave. But it was a great week in a lovely house in a beautiful setting. We thoroughly enjoyed the walks we had in the woods by the house and found Ruth & Mora so much fun with great recall. Thank you Linda and Fraser for welcoming us with a lovely meal and all the info we needed to feel comfortable in your house and with the dogs.

Excellent sit with Sydney and Lucy.  The dogs are great fun, very well behaved; a delightful pair to sit with.  Sydney is a very big sweetie and Lucy is funny.  Easy neighborhood walks with the dogs who are well-behaved, even when greeting neighbors and neighborhood dogs.
The house is very comfortable with all amenities and well located for getting around the Twin Cities.
Christine left very thorough information - all I needed to take care of the pups.
And David left several of his books - good reads.
I’d be happy to sit again if offered.

We loved the house, Bear the Dog and the owners. Unfortunately there was an emergency which cut the sit short. Besids that, we hope to go back and visit when we are in the area. The owners were some of the nicest people we have met and treated us extremely well during that unfortunate time.

We had a few lovely days with Sam and Honey at Helens home.
The dogs are super cute and especially Honey wants lots of cuddles and attention. Both of them are not too good on the leash so to walks are not too relaxing, but if you are together with a friend and each of you takes one dog it's no problem.
The communication with Helen was great and the house was clean.
We would recommend this sit to everyone who loves dogs :)

Anqi's home was a cozy flat in a very walkable neighborhood right next to a grocery store and a short drive to downtown with lots of cafes and restaurants. Anqi was a great host and made me feel welcome.
Mino is a well-behaved, sweet, little pup who is very playful and energetic. It was fun taking care of him and I would definitely go back for another sit.

I had a wonderful time sitting for these pets. Juno and Tigger are just the most lovely and well behaved pups, and super sweet! They are the perfect companions. The new addition of the kittens, Frankie and Mouse, were a wonderful bonus. So entertaining and also adorably sweet. I really loved all of them! 

The location of the home is great. On the west side of London, walkable to many shops and restaurants, as well as close to busses and trains that can easily take you anywhere you want to go. I especially enjoyed the nearby parks where I took the dogs for walks every day. Kinvara and James are excellent hosts, very welcoming and kind.
