Pet Sitters in Oberwil

Elisabeth

Exactly as you would hope. Clean and tidy and a happy cat. I can recommend Elisabeth and Paula as reliable house sitters and I would happily have them come again.

Johannes

Johannes was one of the best petsitters/housesitters I have ever had. I have 4 dogs all very different. He was able to connect with each one on a personal level. Giving them each the attention that they each need. He especially connected well with my youngest and most difficult dog. She is very attached to me and it took her only a couple of days to connect with Johannes. Johannes knew my dogs personalities within days of being with them. He would frequently message me with updates about the dogs and send pictures even without me having to ask him. I have a housekeeper who comes once a week and she told me that Johannes was kind and playful with the dogs especially with my youngest dog and it quite surprised her that my youngest dog was so happy with him because she is a difficult dog to get to trust you. I would recommend Johannes to anyone. He is responsible, kind and most importantly caring.

Serina

Serina is one of the best people I have ever met. Her care, positivity, understanding and above-and-beyond attitude far exceeds not only a sitter, but even a friend of many years. She acted as a true family member. I have spent the past days trying to find the words to express my gratitude, and I am not sure I ever will be able to. She will forever be welcome in our home, and definitely has an extremely special friend in Peanut! The day before Serina was due to arrive, Peanut was rushed into surgery after deciding to swallow a toy at daycare, which meant a cancelled vacation. Despite this, she stayed in constant contact, and continued to offer any amount of time to give me a break from his post surgery care - which was certainly not easy! In the end, I felt entirely comfortable with Peanut being the last 3 days of the planned trip with Serina, having seen how caring and attentive she is. During this time he needed new medications and she swiftly got him to the vet while I made my way home, and kept me in the loop the whole time. She made my worst nightmare bareable. By the time I got home, he was his happy cheerful self again, and I couldn't believe my eyes. I can't recommend Serina enough.

Yasmina

Our two doggos absolutely loved Yasmina & Gonzalo. They were both great to deal with and good with communication. The house was clean and tidy when we got back. We would definitely have them back again - I know our doggos would be in good hands!

Jasmin & Deliah

Jasmine and Deliah are two young and reliable adventurers. They took great care of the dogs and followed the house rules. We found two happy dogs at our return.

Lauren

We would highly recommend Lauren. Kitty is extremely sensitive and shy, she was so comfortable and relaxed to have Lauren around. Thank you. Would definitely have Lauren come back to look after our Kitty and home again.

Ashly

Ashly ist a charming, caring, reliable and very nice person. I had no doubt leaving my house with them. They well cared my cats, sent me photos and asked if they had questions. What a good experience!

Florence & Kevin

Florence and Kevin took great care of our animals and home while we were away for 5 days. We loved seeing the pictures they sent us during the sit and seeing that our pets were having fun. Would recommend them for other house sits!

Aurelien

Aurelien was a wonderful catsitter! He communicated very well leading up to the trip, and kept me updated with messages and photos/videos while I was away. My cat was very happy and calm upon my return, he had clearly been well cared for. Since Aurelien has cats himself, I was very comfortable leaving mine in his care. He also took great care of the apartment, everything was tidy and in order when I returned. I would highly recommend him and would happily have him housesit for me again!

Neomi

I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect sitter than Neomi for my two loved and delicate cats. It is obvious that she has devoted her whole attention and plenty of time to them, taking care, playing, grooming, cuddling, giving their medication without invading their territories or crossing their boundaries. From the very first day, it seemed she had understood their characters and naturally adjusted to them. She was also very mindful of the instructions I had given regarding food, medication and security. On a daily basis, Neomi sent me pictures, videos, news and sometimes recounted the day's adventure (like moth hunting), which was very important for me. Besides, communication with Neomi has been smooth and easy at all stages (before, during and after her stay). The apartment could have been left tidier but it was essentially clean and there is no doubt that Neomi is totally respectful of personal belongings. Neomi is definitely a highly reliable person and a true cat lover I wholeheartedly recommend.

sanna

Sanna was absolutely wonderful! We had a great connection from the first contact and felt totally safe and sound with her for our house and garden as well as for our cat. She was respectful, mindful, caring, reliable, clean, thoughtful and loving. All in all so much more than we could have ever expected! Sanna came with her husband Pierre and both of them took very good care of our cat, house and garden so we could completely enjoy our holiday without any worries. When we came back we found a clean house with flowers and sweets on the table, a happy cat and fresh towels and bedding. She even offered to shop groceries for us. Even if we`ve never met in person I think of Sanna as a dear friend and would love to have her here again. We can highly recommend Sanna as a house and pet sitter!

Joselyn

Joselyn and Bella immediately bonded and their strong connection was apparent throughout the petsit. Joselyn very thoughtfully kept me updated with daily reports, pictures and video clips which were all deeply appreciated. I returned home to a very happy dog that had clearly enjoyed her time with Joselyn. I was also very grateful for Joselyn's flexibility regarding her arrival and departure times. I arrived back very late due to a fight delay and she waited up for me along with Bella; the reception was so heartwarming and deeply appreciated. Bella and I would love to welcome Joselyn back whenever her schedule permits. Thank you so much, Joselyn!

James

Katriina did a wonderful job taking care of Tilly. She was great at communicating regularly and sent us messages and kept us updated throughout. Tilly seemed really relaxed when we got back, so we know she did a great job of taking care of her. The house was spotless when we got back too. 

We would 100% recommend Katriina!

Terri

Terri was welcoming, warm, gave thorough instructions upon our arrival, which made us comfortable.  The manual was detailed with all there is to know about Kush the cat and home.    Enjoyed every moment cuddling, loved Kush's character.  

Thank you Terri for trusting us in your beautiful home.  We would housesit for you again anytime if available.

Jane

This was a wonderful sit all round.  Jane and Darren were so kind and generous making sure I had everything I needed during my stay in their relaxing home.   Betsy was such a character.  Always willing to go for a walk  around her picturesque home town of Portrush.  We had such fun going out and about together.    This was my favourite sit so far and I hope to return again one day.

Joseph

Rosie and Mabel are such adorable labs, loving and playful. Sticks!! wooden and carrot they love. Having the local park, where they took us! was both practical and such a lovely space to breath and enjoy the blossom.
Good communication with Joseph. Nice airy home with comfy sofas for dog time watching the evenings programmes. 
Food shops and others within walking/cycling distance, so nice not having to drive all the time.
Enjoyable time and will return.

rosa

Jim and I had a wonderful time taking care of Rosa´s two lovely pets, Tasha a very sweet dog and Chupi a very affectionate cat (she loved climbing up on Jim while he was working on his computer). Rosa is a very warm and gracious person. We greatly admire her as she has built a school for the Maasai children in Tanzania so they may learn English and expand their future opportunities. It is another beautiful area of Spain.

Pamela

I had a fabulous time spending time with little Nala. She really is hard to not play with. She’s so interactive and a lot of fun. She didn’t disturb at all at bedtime once the lights were out. She slept beside me and I could sometimes see her watching me in the morning. Until I turned on the light she wouldn’t say a word. Then, she had tons of things to say that she saved up to share with me. We probably had a good 10 minute conversation every morning ha ha. Pamela was really easy to chat and coordinate with and she provided a clear explanation about what her little kitty liked and needed. Her home is very comfortable and in an excellent location of Vancouver. Would love to come back and housesit again anytime. Thanks, Nala and Pamela

Alessandra

Very sweet family of pets and humans. The doggos are loving, cuddly creatures but still have big time puppy energy. I'm sure as they get older and the family continues to work on training they will be good dogs. The cat, Spot, is very easy and also friendly. Dante, the guinea pig, is a hay eating machine but also very easy. Beautiful neighborhood! Lots of hills so you'll get some blood flowing during the dog walks.
