This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer

I had a lovely sit at Wendy’s for their two kitties. It was my first sit on trusted house sitters and I felt welcomed. The house is in a cute neighborhood and is a short drive to Bellingham with lots to do there. The kitties were adorable and easy to care for. They spent a lot of time relaxing in their sunny catio and are pretty independent, until treat time that is lol.  I worked remotely for a couple of the days and the internet was reliable.

I wish we could give this sit 10 stars because it really checks all the boxes for a perfect sit. I don’t say that lightly because we have done over 80 sits in the last 4 years. Not only is Karen kind and a thorough communicator but her home is beautiful and in a magical location. The home is clean, well equipped and extremely comfortable. There are incredible trailheads right outside the front door. Plus, we felt appreciated throughout the sit and that really goes along way. 

But let’s face it…. The star of this sit is Annabelle!! Karen and I talked extensively prior to the sit to insure that it was a good fit due to Annabelle’s anxiety. I am so happy we both decided to go for it. Annabelle is pure love! That’s really all she wants: companionship, love and ball time. She wants to be near you in the house and will take all the belly rubs you have to offer. She welcomed our lil senior dog right in after a careful introduction. They peacefully coexisted for the entire week. We were asked to leave Annabelle at home when we went on outings due to her anxiety and she did wonderful. We would give her a bone and tell her we would be back soon  and she would curl up in her bed and wait patiently. Her backyard is perfect for ball time and she gets plenty of exercise with that. We simply followed Karen’s instructions with Annabelle and everything went perfectly. All this to say that I highly recommend this sit and hope to be back some day!

We loved everything about this sit! Thank you Denise for having us.

The cats have funny and sweet personalities. We enjoyed getting to know them and building trust. When they are comfortable, Mané enjoys a cuddle and Odi enjoys playing.

Denise was kind and accommodating and gave us lots of information to help us better understand Odí and Mané. We enjoyed getting to see her in person and knowing that she trusted our approach.

The apartment is beautiful, has lovely views from the terrace, and is situated in a vibrant but calm neighborhood. 

We would 100% return and would love to look after Odí and Mané in the future.

Marie Anick
Quel plaisir de retourner dans la Belle Province!

It was a pleasure housesitting for Marie-Anick in the historic town of Trois-Rivières, Québec. Her condominium is located in a safe neighborhood, in close proximity to essential services and attractions. 

Since this was her first experience with Trusted Housesitters, we worked as a team to ensure that her pets’ needs were clearly stated in the Welcome Guide.

Lana is a 15y. old mixed-breed dog who enjoys daily walks in the woods and at the local park. Lolipop is a healthy 18y. old cat who spends most of her days napping. Titi, the 6y. old long-haired cat loves to sit on your lap and cuddle.

Marie-Anick appreciated receiving daily photos and videos of her furry kids, as well as a final video-tour of the house prior to my departure.

I highly recommend this location to potential housesitters. There’s a lot to do and see in this beautiful town, and the neighbours are kind and gracious. 

Merci Marie-Anick!
Au plaisir de se revoir bientôt!

I really enjoyed looking after Pip and Eppie for Ruth and Nicky. It was a short sit and their first time using THS so they were all, understandably, a bit nervous and unsure initially. The sit was fairly last minute and they generously allowed me to stay an extra night so the dates would work for me. Their home is warm and comfortable and right in the heart of a pretty Cotswold village so there are plenty of neighbours and it's not remote or isolated. There are several footpaths and lakes to explore within easy walking distance.

Pippa is 12 and in amazing shape for her age. She has meds for her arthritis (a couple of tablets, metacam and fish oil) which she happily takes mixed in with her food. She has great recall and despite being a bit wobbly on her pins from time to time she really loves her walks around the village and the churchyard. She's wonderful company, very affectionate once she gets to know you and loves to sit on the sofa with you. She's very chilled out, doesn't bark and is happy to be left. She sleeps in the office. Eppie is a gorgeous, fluffy, purry, mostly indoors cat who has her own rooms upstairs and will greet you with a slightly scary yowl! Don't let that fool you though, she's a very friendly pussycat! Due to an old leg injury she's unable to get downstairs and needs carrying into the garden. Other than that she manages very well and has no trouble sprinting up the stairs when she's had her fill of fresh air and rainwater from one of the garden tubs. She loves company and will happily sit with you upstairs or outside if you make time for her as she and Pip live in separate parts of the house. She sleeps in Nicky's music room. I think adding more details to the listing about the pets and their routine would be useful for future sitters. Having the feeding instructions printed out and left by their food was brilliant though, really helpful.

We all had a great time and hopefully, by the end, everyone was convinced having a sitter was a really good idea!

My stay with Remy, Preston, Lippy, Boomie and Crash was fantastic - don't let the fact that that there are 5 pets dissuade you! Preston is like an old grandpa of the house; he's so sweet and spends most of his day napping. Remy will stick right by your side and ask for pets, and gives the best cuddles. Lippy is the most curious cat I've met, and you'll probably see him most of the three. Boomie enjoyed his time hanging out outside, and Crash is the stealth and shy napper of the bunch. Since Greg and Krista have a dog door, the pets were pretty self-sufficient during the day and could be left alone if needed. Greg and Krista's home is in a beautiful part of Littleton, and a very short drive to the quaint downtown area with lots of good restaurants, parks, and a rec center. Their home is also well-equipped for remote work, and a dip hot tub was a great way to end the day. Greg and Krista were also so kind, and showed me Littleton the night before they left for their trip-- they're both wonderful people and wonderful company. I'd absolutely come back, and was so happy to get to stay!
