Pet Sitters in Orange County, FL

Lisa

Lisa was a wonderful Housesitter. She had to deal with a hot water tank that suddenly broke down, with a dominant Mastin Español and with all our pets - 3 dogs, 2 of our own cats and many stray cats and 2 different groups of chickens - but she dealt with it all, the animals loved her including the chickens! When we got back the house was clean and tidy and happy contented animals. Lisa even left us a beautiful painting. We would throughly recommend Lisa.

Gisele & William

Gisele and her husband were great! I threw a curve ball at them when I ended up getting foster puppies a few days before their visit. They took them out every few hours and did have to deal with some mess by the pups. They were reliable, I came home to clean house, and happy animals.

Sharayah

Shay is a great choice For housesitting! She took such great care of my pets and my home. I can’t wait to have her stay again for us on our next trip, which is already booked! Highly recommended! 😊

Melody

Melody came a day early to get to know Harriet and to get situated which I greatly appreciated. She's a kind person, very healthy and active and Harriet took to her right away. Melody is resourceful, in finding what she wants and needs, she was understanding of my needs, and she's a masterful house cleaner! Harriet got to explore Portland with Melody, she got walks every day and hikes in nature. She got showers and lots of cuddles. Melody sent me pics and videos daily and she even fixed my toilet! I think what I liked the most was that she is trustworthy. I felt like Harriet was in good hands while I spent almost 6 weeks in Europe. I would love for her to come back and take care of Harriet again, but I have a feeling she will be on to exploring other locations. She's a gem of a housesitter/petsitter/human being, really top notch in all ways.

Barbara

Barbara was just so enthusiastic and a font of information/fun. She kept us updated about the ‘boys’ and we even managed to get a lesson in about the game of cricket when we got back from our trip. We have also invited her to stop over on her way back to the airport, so I think that says it all 😊👍

Jocqueline

Jocqueline was very responsible, carrying out all of the chores we had for her. She arrived on time, had a pleasant manner, and took care of everything that needed to be done. She left the house in immaculate condition, even laundering her linens. We recommend her highly.

Lyn

What a job she did!!! We were on a cruise when hurricane Ian hit Florida. Lyn not only took care of our animals, but our house as well. Parts of our house were flooded, and Lyn went above and beyond saving furniture, rugs, etc. while keeping our animals safe, dry, calm and happy. She contacted us often letting us know how things were faring. She was wonderful and went far above and way beyond for us. We are so grateful she was here. We can't thank her enough.

Kayla

Kayla did a great job of taking care of our house and two cats while we were gone. She arrived exactly as discussed and we were able to sit and chat with her and show her around the house prior to leaving. All and all, a great sitter!

Bridget

Highly recommend!!! Bridget is a lovely person, very responsible, was extremely attentive to Lilly, kept my plants watered, sent many photos and updates, and left my house immaculate! I would definitely call on Bridget again in the future!

Margaret

We recently had the pleasure of having Margaret and Joe take care of our two high-energy dogs while we were away, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment we met them, it was clear they genuinely love animals. They took the time to get to know my dogs' personalities and needs, ensuring they felt comfortable and secure. Throughout their stay, my dogs were so happy and well-cared for. They kept them engaged with plenty of exercise and playtime, which is no small feat with their energy levels! When we returned home, they were calm and content—a true testament to her skill in handling spirited pups. Additionally, the house was spotless when we got back, which I greatly appreciated. It's clear they took great care in maintaining the space. Communication was another standout aspect. Margaret kept us updated with regular texts and photos, which really put my mind at ease while we were away. It was wonderful to see our dogs having such a great time! I highly recommend Margaret and Joe to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Their dedication, attention to detail, and love for animals truly sets them apart.

Natalia

Natalia and Antoine are excellent petsitters. From our initial video chat to our arrival home their communication was perfect. The pets were all very well cared for and exercised. They were adept at keeping our sneaky cat indoors which is always a challenge. They are lovely warm and caring people and we highly recommend them.

Julie

I really appreciate Julie and the care she provided my 6 furries. They are all at different stages of age and physical needs, and she handled it all like a pro! I really appreciate the phone calls and texts she sent when there was a question or concern, and for the pictures and videos she sent which gave me peace of mind while I was gone.

Genevieve

Melissa and Mark did an awesome job. My dog unexpectedly got kennel cough right before I left and they were fantastic about taking care of her while she was sick. They made sure she had her medicine and was able to rest but still got exercise. My dog loved them, and I would highly recommend them!

Kathleen

Eric and Tracey are a wonderful, and caring couple. They arrived on time and sent me updates on Riley's walks and hikes. They left the house clean. They left me a very nice personal note. I highly recommend them.

Sasha

Sasha homes was comfy and so centrally located next to Victoria market and Sasha and her partner were very accommodating. As for Lola and captain what a cute pair they are. Loved spending time with them.

Marisa

Ollie, Remy and Ramen were a dream to sit and my stay wasn’t long enough. Ollie is a sweetie who likes long naps, short walks and just good ol fashion pup talk. Remy is gorgeous. Even more beautiful than the photos. Ramen is the house greeter! Every time I came in, Ramen was at the door. Incredibly curious with the loudest purrs. The house is situated in a wonderful old Cleveland neighborhood. So many beautiful old homes- and if it hadn’t been raining, I would have taken Marisa up on the suggestion to walk to nearby cafes, bars and restaurants. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I wrote down the pillow brand. Needless to say, I loved my stay and would stay again. Thank you Marisa and Nick!

Erica & Hans

It was very nice taking care of Oreo and Kiki for Erica and Hans. Oreo was very sweet and cuddly, and Kiki mostly kept to herself (but can be tempted to come out and play with string or to eat treats 😆). 

The place was very comfortable. We had everything we needed, and Erica was very friendly and responsive. We'd love to watch Oreo and Kiki again :) Thanks Erica and Hans!

Marie-cecile

Marie Cécile and Dominique are really amazing people. They waited for us late on the first evening to share their meal. On the next morning Marie Cécile took us for a long walk with Mia in order we knew exactly were to go and what to do while walking Mia on our own. She explained everything clearly, we got all the contacts in case of any emergency. Dominique drove us to the shop so that we could get our groceries easily. And he drove us to our bus on the last day. That was quite funny😊As far as Mia is concerned she is a lovely energetic dog. She enjoys playing with balls. She got adapted to us with no problem. She slept by our bed all night long and in the morning she came to wake us with many cuddles. What a lovely Mia! We enjoyed the place very much. The house is great and very well situated. It was a great sitting. Don't hesitate at all. Thank you Marie Cécile and Dominique.
