Cat Sitters in Rifton, NY

Abigail

Abigail picked up a last minute sit request we put out, and everything worked out very well. We never got to meet or even do a call, but there was no need, as we communicated loads over WhatsApp, which was great and very reassuring. Abigail and her partner Jack bonded quickly with our cat and he was his happy usual self upon our return. The house was clean and tidy, and Abigail was super respectful and polite at all times - checking in that they could use the washing machine, and giving us nice photo updates of them with Puss. We would very much recommend Abigail as a sitter!

Rachael

Rachel was an EXCELLENT communicator before, during.L, and even after her sit. I was incredibly appreciative of her updates and clarifying questions. All of which assured me Keiko and the chickens were safe and cared for.

Sarina

Sarina was great! She sent plenty of updates and played with my cat Nomi and when I returned to the apartment it was perfectly clean. Highly recommended.

Rigel Angelina

Rigel has sat for me twice and has done well.

Katelyn

Katelyn is awesome!! This was her second time sitting for me and I wish I could have her sit every time. She really truly connected with and loved my cats and takes such great care of the house she even cleaned the shower before she left! Thank you for everything! You are the best.

Anthony

Mia and Anthony were amazing sitters. I could not recommend them enough. They took care of our Smittens as if he was their own. They also provided me with numerous updates a day and made me feel very at ease. Smittens takes a while to warm up to new people but I could tell he had the absolute best time with Mia and Anthony. They also left the house very clean. We will certainly have Mia and Anthony stay with Smittens again!

Mary & Matthew

Mary was great over this short stay! Took good care of the house and the cats! We'd be happy to have her sit again.

Sam & Miguel

Sam and Miguel are outstanding house and pet sitters! They took great care of my dog, including doing a consult with my vet when she seemed a little sick. I came home to a house and yard that were in better shape than when I left it! I would highly recommend Sam and Miguel. They are kind, compassionate and take their responsibilities to your pet and your home very seriously. I'm hoping to get them back for another sit in the future!

Sydney & Eric

Sydney and Eric did a fine job looking after our beasties. They seemed happy and well fed when we came home. Sydney and Eric also put all the linens from the weekend into the wash for us, which was not expected but was appreciated.

Victoria

Rockstar, Superstar, 10 out of 10. Victoria is a gem! I feel very lucky to have been connected to her and would highly recommend booking her!

Jared

Jared was our first sitter. He set such a high standard that others may have a hard time to keep up! He just sat for us for the for the second time. We have nothing negative to say about this young man. Our dog loves him and he loves her, and treats her beautifully. He is sweet, kind, creative, and responsible. He calls our home his "Artists' Retreat". He will be welcome back here any time.

dianne

Dianne and Tim are exactly the kind of sitters who make TH a trusted and reliable community that we can turn to time and again. They were highly communicative, friendly, capable. They took care of our 7 month old Nora for a few days and were so flexible with the needs and quirks of a young dog in training. Our dog fell in love with them quickly and the daily photos proved it. They were conscientious from start to finish with Nora and left our home in immaculate condition. We came home after a long day of travel to a clean home and happy dog which is everything. We are so very grateful to Dianne and Tim!

Michael

What a disappointment! Left the house and the pets half way through the agreed dates. While we were out of the country. No advance warning  just picked up and left !We had to urgently find someone to get to the house and give water and food to the pets. Broke the printer that I made available for him.
After all accommodations we made for them!
Ungrateful and irresponsible people. Do not trust them with your pets.

Kirsten

Greta took wonderful care of our cat and our house for two weeks. Our cat is quite shy but I could see from the clips Greta sent in between, that he was feeling at ease around her. Greta is very easy and prompt to communicate with! When we returned home, we found a relaxed cat as well as a tidy and clean house - as if we had never left. Thank you so much. I highly recommend Greta!
