Pet Sitters in Redcliffs

Selina

Selina and her couple have been super flexibles and the communication with them has been flawless. When we came back the house was super clean, and the cats healthy and happy. Thanks a lot for taking care of our home. We recommend then 100%

Chris

Chris stayed at our place and looked after our dog, Frankie, for almost 2 weeks while we went to New Zealand. Everything was easy. He popped in for a pre inspection, regularly contacted me with updates, left our home clean and tidy, and with a very happy, exercised dog. Thanks Chris for everything, it was a perfect 'country swap'.

Bridget & Brian

Bridget & Brian were absolutely wonderful, the communication and updates while we were away were regular so I didn’t worry. The house was tidier when we came back than when we left I’m pretty sure, which was a pleasure to come home to after 5 weeks. Would highly recommend them.

Roland

Roland and Jackie were the perfect house sitters. A great level of communication from the outset - not too much to be over bearing, but just right to give us the confidence that they would be here and would be the right people for our pets. I think this sounds like a triviality, but when you're new to the house sitting network it's the most important thing. You have all these worries going round your head "Will these people take care of our pets" "will they arrive".... Despite never meeting in person we were perfectly at ease having Roland an Jackie to stay before they even got here. Our house and our pets were in great hands and we returned to to very relaxed (but happy to see us) dogs and a lovely clean and tidy house. Even a defrosted freezer which is fantastic, but ever so embarrassing that we didn't manage to get round to doing that for Roland before they arrived :) Thanks ever so much for your time here and I hope you have many more enjoyable stays through this great network.

Wynand

Wayne was absolutely brilliant, I had a lot of updates from him over the 10 day sit and it sounds like he had a lot of fun with the cats. I had some lovely pictures and heard about their antics which was great. Wayne was very easy to communicate with and he left the house sparkling clean. I am hoping he comes back next year as I'm pretty sure the cats are missing him now we are home 😂 Ratchet especially seemed to enjoy someone to play feather with her! I would 100% recommend Wayne as a sitter for anyone else.

Romina

We couldn’t be happier with Romina and how she look after our two dogs while we were away! 🥰 Very very happy we got matched with Romina and got to meet her via zeewoi 🤩

Hannah

Hannah and Will agreed to come sit with us for the long weekend and were absolutely lovely. Both very sensible and clean and tidy! Our recent cat addition Cheeky was a stray and very frightened of humans when he moved in and we were worried how he might cope with sitters but Hannah immediately clicked with him and sent photos of them cuddling! Will is from a farm background I think and both lots of experience with animals, very professional and kind couple.

Audrey & Robert

Despite some difficult personal circumstances they still managed to honour this visit and the house and animals were looked after very well. Cannot fault their attention to detail. Would certainly invite them back anytime.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth was a wonderful companion and caretaker for our 2 cats. They looked and behaved exactly as we left them, lively and loving. The house was in perfect shape when we got back. She was resourceful when presented with minor challenges. We would definitely use her again!

Erika

We were really really happy to have Erika housesit for us. Erika was amazing and caring with our cat and kept us up to date with messages and photos while we were away, which kept our mind at ease. We returned home to a clean house and a very content and happy cat which made our trip all worthwhile. I would highly recommend Erika!

Toni

It was a delight having Toni take care of the boys while we were on holiday. She communicated well and we got pictures of the boys every day. The house was clean and tidy when we got back! I think the boys had a great time as well ! Thank You Toni, you are welcome back any time!

Patrick & Louisa

Patrick and Louisa looked after my two cavoodles while I was out of town for 3 nights. Left the house clean and tidy, and the dogs loved having them there.

Tobin

Kittle is the cutest, dreamiest, cuddliest and one of the most fun cats you will hang out with! We had such a joyful time taking care of kittle! 

The location of this sit is wonderful for travel to anywhere in Portland, plus the park is literally within half a block! 

The home is a lovely bachelor pad vibe place and has an app you use for entry so you need a working phone. 

If you don't like technology this might not be the home for you as it is a very "tech forward" house.


Thanks so much for the opportunity again!

Kendra

So enjoyed Murphy (1 1/2 year old) labradoodle, and Rumi the cuddly cat, in Kendra's lovely home.  Murphy and I spent alot of time outdoors, he's got alot of energy, but he was also very well behaved.

Allison

I loved loved loved my sit with Evie! She is such a great, cuddly and easy cat with one of the best purs! Allison was also amazing, communicative, flexible and accommodating! My next sit cancelled and she allowed me to stay there as long as I needed to find last minute accommodations and was nice enough to drive me over. Her house was clean, comfortable and in a great walkable location! If you have the opportunity to sit, do it! 10/10 sit!

Perse

Perse was very welcoming and friendly and made us feel instantly comfortable in her home. Rocco and Panda are gorgeous dogs and they very quickly found a way into our hearts. They were so enthusiastic about their daily walks and were incredibly affectionate, playful and fun to be with. Fizz the cat joined us for a number of walks too and was excellent at letting us know exactly when it was time for supper each evening! We really enjoyed exploring Malmesbury and the surrounding area and had some gorgeous walks in the park, with the first signs of autumn appearing. A lovely house sit in a beautiful location. Thank you so much for a lovely stay.
