We've had many housesitters and Francois and Mariana are the best of the best. They are true professionals. We were so lucky to have them housesit for us and our cat and dog. They were confident, calm, and attentive with the pets from the first minute they walked in the door. It was very clear that they are extremely sensitive to animal needs and "communication", so they were closely attuned to what our pets were feeling and what they needed. For example, our dog gets agitated about us leaving and Mariana talked to her and petted her quietly as we got ready - eventually, the dog was lying down calmly as we walked out the door (this never happens!!!!) As housesitters and as people, they are also wonderful, trustworthy, and attentive. It was clear from their updates that they not only read, but thoroughly studied and understood all the instructions in our detailed welcome guide. They are also friendly, respectful people who were extremely responsive, always available when we checked in and ready with a little story about what they and the pets were up to. They were scrupulously on time to start and end the sit, even though we asked them to arrive at our place at 6 in the morning!! The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived and the pets were happy and relaxed. Our animals were very clearly in amazing hands. The dog was well-behaved after their stay (usually she has a bit of a backslide in bad habits during extended stays with others, but not this time!) and even the cat seemed much happier than he usually does when we come back from a trip. There is no better feeling as a pet owner - that your house sitters truly understand AND care deeply about your babies. We are so happy to have had Francois and Mariana as our housesitters, and we truly hope to meet or have them sit for us again. PS They even sent us the most delightful video they had created showing the pets' adventures during the week. In short, they are the best!!

Fidji and Colin and their lovely children were wonderful house sitters. We're fairly new to the site and are always a little nervous about leaving our elderly cats and our home. Fidji and Colin were perfect and put us at ease straight away. They regularly updated us, sent photos of the cats, were extremely responsive and communicative at all times. We felt that our home and cats were in excellent hands. We arrived home late in the evening to find the house absolutely spotless plus beds changed and delicious cookies for us accompanied by a thoughtful welcome home letter. I cannot praise Fidji and Colin enough and for anyone thinking of booking them for a housesit - don't hesitate!

Joanie looked after our dog for 16 days. He was happy to see us.  She did enjoy looking after him and we believe she did her best. 
However, he was injured while under Joanie’s care. On our our return the information we obtained from the vet was not the same as what Joanie conveyed to us..
The vets records state: “The history from the pet sitter is disorganized and unclear.”
There was no written information or records  at home as to the vets instructions, what kind of medication was given and when it was given . As message was left to call the vet in the morning after we arrived home. 
Although Joanie said she washed him with the hose he definitely needed a shampoo and bath .
