Eric is a wonderful sitter! I knew he would be great after I saw all of his 5 star reviews. When I first talked to him, Eric was very amiable, and asked all the right questions, which showed me that he had read through the listing and paid particular attention to the types of pets that we had and their particular quarks. Eric took the time to meet with me as needed before he came to the place. He was always happy to meet me at the times/days I requested. We had to catch a ferry and it was prebooked, Eric was very flexible and allowed for plenty of time to arrive at our home for us at arrive back so we did not have to worry about the dogs being alone. During his stay, Eric made sure that the dogs were walked and properly attended to. One of our dogs requires daily medication and Eric did a great job with that. One of our boys was a bit whiny during the stay and we had a chat about it, Eric solved the problem during his stay. One the day we came home, Eric offered to launder the sheet and towels which was a such a relief to me a I had so much to do when I got home. One of the best things that Eric did was take our dogs for one last walk right before we came home so that we did not have to attend to them after our long journey. When we got home, our house was clean, our dogs were happy and tired and we were extremely pleased. Be sure to book Eric if he enquires about your listing!

Aaron liked my dog and gave him atention as soon as he came into the house. He was trustworthy, reliable, responsible, and honest. He responded promptly to emails and phone calls (except when there was a glitch in phone service). He did miss one minor item in my welcome guide -- washing and drying the sheets he used. But overall, Aaron is an excellent house and dog sitter.

Linda
This was my first official pet sitting with Trusted Housesitters and it couldn't have been better. Suki is very sweet and good-natured. Though she's an "older" dog, she's very energetic and loves her walks. I really enjoyed her company and especially having her sleep in my room each night.

Linda is really lovely and very organised. She gave me a tour of the house and showed me where to find all the relevant items. She also has a notebook which explains everything thoroughly in case you need to refer to it later. I also really enjoyed chatting with her and hearing about her cycling and travelling.

Her house is very cosy and I felt right at home. If you're a nature lover, the area is great for hiking, walks on the beach, seeing waterfalls, and much more.

I had a really great experience and would love to go back and look after Suki again in the future. Definitely one that I'd recommend to other sitters.

Emily
Emily is an excellent host. It was effortless to communicate with her. Her house is as cool as the descriptions say, and she not only prepared little surprises but also shared tips about the city. 

Cleo, her cat, is super cute and cuddly, making it very easy to be around her. 
I am delighted with the week I spent with her, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to everyone!

I had a great sit taking care of Cobie and Meena! They are so beautiful and lovely to spend time with! They love to walk and loveee their food! 
There are shops on walking distance and some amazing walks for the dogs along the coast. 
Communication with the owners was extremely easy and they were very accommodating with food and showing me around! All in all I had a fantastic time 😊

Jax and Birdie were amazing to look after! Very chill and sweet pups. Windy’s home in steamboat was beautiful and clean, and she was extremely helpful and kind. Would definitely recommend looking after little Jax and Birdie!

I had a lovely stay at Balnarring with Jean the red border collie who loves a walk down the beach and a play in the back yard but also settles down on the couch later in the day. Flossy and Alex were very good with their communication and requirements and very friendly on my arrival and the house was very comfortable.

Sherri was very friendly and left detailed instructions for the care of her babies. The sit is located in a wonderful neighborhood of Vancouver easily walkable to local restaurants and stores. 

This was my first time administering pills to a cat but I started to get the hang of it and KJ was a trooper.  

Hang in there on learning the cats names, after a few days their personalities will help you to determine who wants cuddles and who wants to be left alone unless they seek you out. 

Cats are very well behaved and a joy to be around.
