Pet Sitters in Oslo, FL

Karen

We had a great experience meeting and working with Karen. Our Sylvie, is a very fussy eater and I had to change her food just two days before we left for our trip. I worried about her staging a hunger strike, but Karen paid careful attention to her and kept her happy and eating all throughout the trip. She also took wonderful care of our home. Karen, please come back anytime!

Lori and Rob

Lori and Rob were great! They stayed for 6-7 weeks at my house on the island of Vieques while I visited my family during a rough time. They took care of my house, car and pets exactly as I asked. My house and car were neat and clean when I returned and the 6 cats appeared unfazed by the whole thing. Communication was not too much, not too little, allowing me to focus on my mission. They went beyond expectations by taking on the optional job of cutting back part of the jungle, a big help to me. They also helped out at the local humane society with dog training, which was very much appreciated. I highly recommend these delightful and self-reliant people.

Tina

So where do I start ?… we had the BEST person possible to stay at our home in Florida for 6 months ! Tina is amazing . She took wonderful care of our 2 cats Olivia & Winston as well as our home . She’s very charming and grounded person . Even had a couple issues to come up at the house and Tina handled them well . I would highly recommend Tina for any sit !!! We hope to see her again !!!

Stephynia

Stephynia was fantastic! Our pups instantly fell in love with her and we could tell how much she loved them. She even got up early every morning (before sunrise) to take them outside and sit with them. Our house was nice and clean when we returned. We whole-heartedly recommend Stephynia for house and pet sitting! Hopefully, she'll be able to sit for us again.

Linda

Linda was just a dream! She communicated and kept us informed from the minute we agreed to the sit! She's independent and confident so I had no worries that she's encounter any issues. She sent photos everyday, left the house neat and tidy and our kitty, Shoe, obviously adored her! Though we didn't meet in person, we have formed a bond that I hope will last a long time, and she isn't very far away, which will work out for both of us for more last minute options. She is not bound by office hours or rigid schedules so she's very flexible. I highly recommend Linda.

Robert

Robert and Florence took such great care of our Curly. We could tell he was well loved while we were out of town. I had mentioned to them about Curly’s bad breath and Florence provided some suggestions and took action to help! Curly’s breath issues are gone! Thank you! Robert and Florence were flexible with us. Our flights home got very delayed and we were not going to be home in time for their planned departure. They were open to driving Curly over to my sister’s house 20-25 minutes away so he had care until we got home. We were comfortable having Robert and Florence in our home and appreciated their updates on Curly. Thanks again!

Holly

Holly was prepared for the New Providence experience - her previous experiences in the Bahamas and with dogs were no doubt helpful. Holly is outgoing, energetic, proactive, and industrious. She takes on experiences and challenges as opportunities. She made garden and beach improvements and caught and prepared the best cracked conch ever. We especially appreciated her expertise and special care of our 3 dogs, and the attention she gave to their individual and collective needs. She communicates well and sent photos showing the dogs were having their best beach days ever. Mudpie the Cat was happy with a privileged position on the bed. We are happy to recommend Holly as a Trusted House / Pet Sitter.

Nicholas

Nicholas was the perfect fit for our month long housesit. We have two large dogs - a 3-year old 70lbs standard poodle and a 2-year old 65lbs labradoodle. Nicholas diligently took the dogs on lengthy walks twice a day and followed all the dietary requests for the dogs. He communicated regularly throughout our trip. We arrived home to a spotless house, healthy plants and trees in the dead of summer, and a yard clean of dog poop. We hope he can sit for us for our next trip! Thank you, Nick!

MARIA

What a pleasure it was to have Maria in our home and taking care of little Havana. Maria kept us updated constantly about the all of Havana’s daily events, eating, walks, sleeping and of course the daily “business” :) Our gardens were beautiful when we left, and just as beautiful when we returned! Our home was left in spic and span shape which is very important to us. We would recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy, polite, kind, caring sitter.

David & Martina

We were impressed from the moment they arrived. They are genuine animal lovers and it was evident from the start. David and Sheila had obviously prepared for their visit and had studied our Welcome Guide. They knew all three dogs by name and used their names when they introduced themselves to them. They stayed in contact while we were gone, and the place was immaculate when we returned. I recommend them without hesitation.

Patricia

Patricia was a wonderful housesitter, and she took fantastic care of our home and our two kitties. She kept in touch with us in the time leading up to our departure date, and worked with us to set up a time to come over before the sit began, to pick up the keys, get instructions, and most importantly – to meet our babies, Jamie and Oliver. We enjoyed chatting with Patricia in person, and talking about travel, our local area here on the Space Coast of Florida, and other things. She’s a fellow cat-lover, and has extensive experience caring for homes and pets with her property management background, so we knew we’d made a great choice. While we were on our trip, Patricia sent us regular updates and pics of our kitties. It always makes us smile to get the updates, as both Ollie and Jamie looked very happy with Patricia taking care of them. There’s nothing better when you’re away from home than knowing your babies are happy and acting normal while you’re gone. 😊 When we returned home, our house was so tidy, we almost couldn't tell Patricia had even been there! Our kitties were also very happy, as they’d had a wonderful sitter taking care of them while we were gone. Overall, we would highly recommend Patricia as a housesitter, and we would welcome her back to our home anytime!

Venise

Venise was very flexible when we had to change our dates at the last minute and took great care of Blue.

Sally

I had an amazing time housesitting for Sally in her beautiful home. We met on the day house sit started so I was able to be shown around the home and be introduced to Charlie and Bertie. I was staying in a large and comfortable bedroom with my own bathroom. 

Charlie and Bertie are extremely friendly and easy to care for. They are in a very easy-to-follow routine which made my stay very relaxed. We had long walks in the area around the house - there are plenty of footpaths available with amazing views. I also could work from home with no problems using the wifi.

Sally was very hospitable and generally lovely! It would be a pleasure to housesit for her again in the future. <3

Aly

All the pets were very well behaved. Communication was great and the instructions were very clear. I would recommend this stay to anyone.

April

We spent almost a month with Oliver, he’s an amazing dog, very sensitive and kind. We never had any troubles with him. 

April was a perfect host. She was always in touch with us and responded immediately. She was very friendly and helpful.
