Cat Sitters in Rushlake Green

Rebekka

Super great from start to finish. Rebekkah is a great communicator and a pleasure to deal with. She went out of her way to stay late with Ludo after a misunderstanding (my bad!) and was super thoughtful. I had lots of daily update pics- Ludo looked so happy and relaxed and playful - he really did enjoy his time with Rebekkah. I would have no hesitation in recommending her for a sit. I hope she’s available again to come and hang out with Ludo!

Bethan

Bethan looked after Poppy, our dog, for 10 days. She arrived a few days before the sit to get to know Poppy and the local walks. Bethan did a fabulous job taking care of Poppy, sharing many adventures and exploring the Wellington region. When we got home Poppy was excited to see us for a few minutes then sat with Bethan. It was great to see that Poppy loved being with her. We would definitely welcome Bethan back again and recommend her 100%

Kate & Steve

Absolutely lovely people, and we felt totally comfortable leaving our cats in their care.

Trish

Trish and Julian looked after our home, our 2 dogs and our chicken for 3 weeks over Christmas and New Year. They did a fantastic job and left our house immaculate. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, walked and groomed as per our instructions and given plenty of love and affection. They sent us regular updates with photos of the dogs and were very willing to stay on when we had to delay our return due to Covid. They even bought groceries for us so we had the basics on our return. We can’t praise them enough and would highly recommend them.

iris

Iris was wonderful; very relaxed, very capable and totally unflappable. Timmy was very happy under her care and the house was just as we had left it. I would highly recommend Iris and would be delighted to have her back

Sonya

We have had Sonya house sit for us on several occasions which has been great, especially for our nervous cat who has been able to become accustomed to her. She gave us peace of mind and communicated well with us when we were away. We hope to have her back when she returns from her travels.

Andy

It was great to have Andy back again to house sit for us. We felt very confident leaving our house and dogs, Lily and Hector, in his capable hands, and would highly recommend him - Thank you1

Kate

Kate, Olly, and their six year old son Flynn were wonderful pet sitters, deserving 5stars in every way! Communication was appropriate and enjoyable from the beginning, and when their home situation changed they quickly contacted me to work the change into our travel plans. I appreciated their willingness to come a day early to take time to meet and interact with the pets, get to know me, and let me show them around the house. They asked great questions and were clearly prepared to learn everything needed to be great sitters. Then we all played "catch" with the dogs, and I was happy to see that young Finn was experienced, respectful, and comfortable around both the dogs and the cats. I felt very confident leaving the pets in their care and when I got home I could tell they all had a good time. The house was cleaner than when I left it, and Kate wrote me a sweet note about their stay. I highly recommend them and would love to have them back any time.

Jessica

Jessica was wonderful with our dog Belle. When we got home, our house was clean, tidy, as we left it, and Belle was happy. I would highly recommend and would be happy to have them back.

Beau

Beau was really easy to communicate with and got on really well with my cats. They sent me lots of photos of the cats enjoying themselves and the flat, all my houseplants and cats were great when I got home. I would definitely have Beau back to housesit again

Anna & Charlie

Anna and Charlie were brilliant. Our house was immaculate when we got back and Heidi our dog had obviously had the most amazing time. She was knackered! 😅 the guys sent us regular updates which was so lovely. I would not hesitate to recommend them, if they apply for your sit accept them asap!

Sue

Sue is an excellent house and pet sitter. We have an older cat who needs care and medication, and Sue took great care of her, forming a routine which our cat really likes. We got regular updates, and the house felt really nice to come back to after Sue had been there. All communication went smoothly, and Sue was understanding about our leaving / arriving times so we could do a handover and our cat wasn't alone for too long on the last day. We hope Sue will be able to stay again, we'd absolutely recommend her.

Crystal

Morgan did an excellent job at taking care of our four cats. She communicated with us regularly to update us on how things were going and occasionally sent pictures.  Those small details gave us further peace of mind as we were away. She seemed to offer our fur babies true companionship while we were gone, which is what we hoped for. The home was left clean upon her departure, and she did a great job caring for our garden as well.
We would definitely have her sit for us again.

Jeff

Anita and Tom are great people!  Really felt comfortable leaving our home and dogs in their capable hands.  They took such good care of everything and are so easy to communicate with.  We wouldn't hesitate to have them back anytime.  Really appreciate them!  Tom is definitely a handyman and can handle anything that might arise at home or on the ranch.
