Cat Sitters in Pennyhill, DE

Molly

Molly and Ryan have been our housesitters for a week in March. We were so happy to meet with this young couple full of enthusiasm. They cared for our Border Collie Selma with whom they bonded very quickly in spite of her being anxious. Lots of walks and ballplaying. The two cats had lots of cuddles. The poultry got taken care of and our small herd of sheep. Molly and Ryan had hoped to be here when there was a newborn lamb, and had the luck to find themselves with three lambs being born and well in our absence. It was lovely to see how they enjoyed this. We happily recommend Molly and Ryan as housesitters. We hope to see them here again one day during their travels in Europe. A big thank you to the two of you. Eva and Serge

Deirdre

Deirdre stayed in our home for three weeks watching our cat. Deirdre is a clear communicator. We hopped on a call before confirming the sit and since that call we had confidence in her ability to watch our home for an extended period of time. During the stay we had a few unexpected house issues that needed attention. Deirdre was excellent at communicating the issue and coordinating with contractors as needed. Deirdre was also wonderful with our cat. Deirdre had questions about our cat's personality the first few days as she got to know him and I am glad she asked us. We received frequent pictures/videos and we came back to a stress free cat.

Rebecca

Rebecca did an amazing job! The house was spotless when I returned home and the kitties were happy. Rebecca is welcome back anytime. Thank you!

Megan

Megan was wonderful and truly loved my pup like her own! She was a good communicator, sent pics and updates of Puma and I returned to my home as clean as when I left it, she even washed the bedding and put it back on for me! I would happily host Megan and her sister again to take care of Puma:)

Eileen

Eileen and Chris were fantastic! They were great communicators and took amazing care of our elderly cat, sending great updates. Our home was spotless and our cat was very happy when we came back home. Would have them back anytime!

Maz

People like Maz are who make this site great! Maz watched my home and cat while I was out of state for a week. Their communication was fantastic, I got updates on arrival and departure times, and came home to a clean home and a very happy kitty! Maz also left me a delicious meal in the refrigerator after my long drive home, as well as a very thoughtful gift! They went above and beyond at every level. It was a stressful trip for me, and it was such a relief to know that my home and my baby were in such caring hands. I highly recommend Maz to anyone looking for quality care. I'm so grateful for them and would gladly welcome them back in the future!

Jillian

We had no stress or worry while we were away because we knew our baby Max was in good hands. Jillian and Nick were great at keeping in touch with us and periodically sent us pictures of Max. They were very hands on and gave Max lots of attention. We came home to a clean and tidy house. We would definitely use them again.

Sabrina

I felt at ease and like I could relax with my cuties in Sabrina's hands. She sent me daily updates as requested and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed the cats rather than just doing the basics. House was left cleaner than when I left.

Tyler & Zak

Tyler was a great house/dog sitter. He and Zak were responsible, flexible and very self sufficient. They were also very communicative—sending regular updates about our two dogs. They were sad to see them go. When we returned, our home was clean — they clearly took very good care of the space and our beloved dogs. We would highly recommend them to anyone considering a house/pet-sitter.

Carina

Carina took great care of our pets while we were away. She is reliable and very neat. Highly recommend!

Verena & Gabriel

We really appreciated the ease of communication with V & G. They were reassuring about their stay in such a nice relaxed way. The house was cleaner than we left it. Our dogs loved them and we would have them back any time.

Corinne

Corinne did a great job caring for our boys! They seemed very happy when we came home and the house was neat and tidy. Would definitely recommend.

Emilie

How can I write a thousand star review for Tom and Moira?
As a pet owner, I must say that finding a reliable and compassionate pet sitter can make all the difference in the world. Tom and Moira's dedication provided exceptional care for my furry companions while I was away on vacation. Their professionalism and personalized approach put me at ease, knowing that my pets were in capable hands. I cannot recommend Tom and Moira highly enough for their outstanding service and genuine love for animals.
My pets were loved, adored and treated like family. I could not have been more impressed with how they spoiled my dogs. They also left my house more than immaculate. It was wonderful to come home to a clean and organized house, happy pets (albeit sad that their new best friends were gone...). I consider Tom and Moira with extreme high regards and I hope you will give them the opportunities they deserve. 
My vacation was a success because of their great care, and I am forever grateful. Thank you Tom and Moira for becoming such an important part of my family.
