Cat Sitters in Rye, NY

Laura & Alex

Great as always

Elizabeth & Colin

I loved having Elizabeth at my house! She was so good with my cats and the nervous one even came out a lot sooner than she usually would! Was very good at giving me long updates every day and never let me worry about my cats once. She also left everything even cleaner than I left it! Highly recommend :]

Bessie & Carolina

Bessie and her mother have taken very good care of marta and sofia, they have been sending pictures all the time and responding very quickly when we needed to know about our animals. The cleanliness has not been as expected compared to how we delivered the house.

Nathaniel

Nate stepped in to help when I had a pretty last-minute cancellation from another sitter. He was organized, communicative, and took great care of my pets and place. I wish he hadn’t had to be here on the coldest weekend of the whole year!! Welcome back anytime!

Jessica

Jess nailed it again. This time we had a few little things going on in the apt that required the assistance of the super, and she was so responsive and easy-going about it. Jess is always so calm about everything, has a nice sense of humor, and comes through in a bind, when needed. Thanks for everything, as always, Jess!

Barbara

Barbara was an excellent pet and house sitter. She was reliable and pleasant. She left my home in good condition.

Holli

Holli was clean and organized and responsive. Kula was a happy girl and well cared for. Holli is coming back for another sit with Kula and we are excited to have her.

Aracelis & Taylor

Celi and Taylor were excellent sitters. We got to meet them briefly before we departed which was great. They just sat for a weekend but communication was perfect and the house was left clean and tidy. It was clear they enjoyed spending time with the dogs and we appreciated that they even let the dogs cuddle with them at night. Would be happy to have them back.

Tim

Tim was very communicative throughout his stay, sending daily updates. He also took good care of my cat and left my place in spotless condition.

Vahni & Jonathan

Both we and our kitties (Doc and Boo) love Vahni and Jonathan. This is the second time they've sat for us and we are happy to come home to calm and obviously loved cats. My only critique is that they are not the tidiest of housekeepers and the house needed a pretty extensive cleaning by us before we could settle back in (floors, bathroom, counters). But given that we have one pretty high maintainence kitty with IBD and that Vahni may have been dealing with her own family stuff (she is helping her elderly mom who lives in our town), I'm willing to cut her a lot of slack. Our priorities are the cats (a house can always be cleaned). Would happily have them sit for us again.

Diana

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Diana and Alex. They took perfect care of my house and pets while we were away! Even able to medicate an elusive cat. They left the house immaculate and even left us some delicious candy to come home to….

Andreas & Carolyne

Andreas and Carolyne took on the huge responsibility of caring for my cat with cancer knowing anything could happen and my beloved kitty might have to be euthanized on their watch. In addition, both of my cats require twice daily asthma treatments. Both cats were very well taken care. Luckily, the cancer didn't progress much while I was away and they sent me frequent emails with photos and updates regularly. The apt. was also well taken care of. It wasn't easy to leave my cat and I am very grateful to Andreas and Carolyne for sitting for me.

Alice

Pamela is a superstar house/cat sitter. This was my first sit and I am not always comfortable with strangers in my space. After meeting Pamela I had absolutely no qualms about leaving my house and cat in her care. She even came a day early and stayed a night longer because I hadn’t planned well being new to the site. It was really helpful of her and I appreciated it so much.

Pamela kept great track of my cat’s eating and toilet schedule to ensure he was well while I was away. She also reported back quickly when she was in the least bit worried and I really appreciated it. I came home to a clean house, a healthy and happy cat, and she even handed out Halloween candy for me while I was away. I would highly recommend Pamela and would love to have her back again, but I’m sure she’ll be in high demand and hard for me to snag a second time.

If Pamela applies to look after your pets you should definitely put her at the top of your list.

Marcus

Ola and Robin did a fine job of looking after Lenny for a whole month in the hot summer. A particular highlight was receiving Robin's mini-video clips of Lenny doing various funny things, which made it feel like our fluffy boy was not quite so far away in another country!
They also took good care of the house and garden, including figuring out the different days and spots for the bins to be collected from. The house was left beautifully clean, and even with some basics in the fridge. 
They are a responsible and warm couple who I would have no hesitation in recommending for caring for your animals and home. Book them whenever they are available!
