Jenny was a great sitter! My girls were very well cared for. She kept me updated on how things were going and sent me pictures and videos. I would definitely recommend Jenny and we’d love to have her back anytime!
Renee was a great sitter! My cat immediately warmed up to her and was clearly very happy and well cared for while I was away. Renee provided photos and updates throughout her time with Violet, and I returned to a content kitty and clean apartment. I'd be happy to welcome her back.
Oh my gosh, what can I really say about such amazing people, fur babies and farm that will do it justice? Bob and Debbie are so extremely welcoming and treated me like family right away. Molly is so chill and cool and is the best trail guide I've ever had. Their 2 cats are extremely independent and usually supervise your activities but Bert loves a good scratch down. They all collectively create a loving, peaceful, healing and safe environment to just rest and read or hike and explore or even work on crafts. This farm makes you feel like you have all the time in the world. ✋️ sign me up for next time!!!
Lola and Coco are beautiful girls. Very different in personalities. Coco will push Lola away to sit on your lap and Lola just settles herself on a different part of the sofa. Coco is excitable on her walks and will randomly choose to yap at other dogs.....couldn't see any pattern to this. Not vicious though. A bit of an issue with the front door lock had me needing a locksmith. I was able to contact Leah and all sorted out. Not having a car I was happy to catch the bus to the city center (Lincoln) and visit the castle amd Cathedral. With a car I may have been able to explore some other areas.
We had the most wonderful time sitting for Barbara and Mike in their beautifully located house near Lyndhurst. We enjoyed looking after the 3 horses which are all very friendly and well behaved. The house is large and characterful and we were blessed with glorious weather which meant we could get on our bikes most days. Cycling from the door in any direction takes you into beautiful forests and heathlands for miles and miles. Some of the best bike rides we've ever done! The hosts were very good with communicating all the information we needed to care for the house and horses and were warm and friendly. An exceptional sit that we'd be delighted to revisit another time if our services were required again. Thank you Barbara and Mike...5 stars!
This sit is great for someone who works remotely and is home most of the day and just really enjoys being around animals. Megan was wonderful. She communicated clearly and left very detailed instructions for the home and animals. The house was very clean and comfortable. There were zero problems, but if you're looking for a home to use while you are traveling, this one has shorter windows of time to be away because of the schedule the puppy is on. All the animals are really sweet. The dogs play together well, the cat is super easy going, and the rabbit, though shy at first, is fun to hang out with. I work remotely and love having pets around while I'm working, so I honestly don't have any complaints. The neighborhood was has nice trails and views and there's access to a pool in the community that's really nice. But if you're looking for a place to come and go from for longer periods of time, this may not be a good fit for you. If you have a really flexible remote schedule or just want some time away in a nice home with a lot of play time with the animals, this one's for you!
I flew in from another state for a long weekend getaway at Serena’s Venice condo and even though it was a last minute arrangement, Serena was organized and easy to communicate with. The house was very comfortable, bright, and in a great location for exploring Venice. I didn’t have a car but there is a well-stocked natural food store half a block away as well as a city bus that runs directly to Venice Beach several times an hour for only $1. Bus to Santa Monica is also close by and convenient. The cats are delightful, Friendly and easy-going. Elle the dog is quite elderly and has age-related issues that might be challenging if she was larger, but she’s just a handful of sweetness and her problems were pretty easy to handle. Overall a great stay. Thanks Serena!
I only got to house sit for 2 days and I really had fun. Andy and Vanessa are warm and welcoming, their home is lovely and in a great location, I walked to Victoria Market, and Royal Park is just down the street. But without a doubt the star of the sit is Theo. He's only 10 months at this time, and he is a real joy to be around. Experience with big dogs is a must, just because of his exuberance, you must be confident around him. Theo listens to commands and responds well, but he can very easily be distracted (just young). He is funny, goofy, and very affectionate. I hope I get to see him again because I really took to him. I highly recommend this sit.

Recently sent our junior cat away for a stay here whilst we went on holiday and was super super happy with the service! The owners are lovely with amazing communication and took great care of our cat. Pick up/drop off service was brilliant too, 10/10!
Even though my 2 are extremely nervous cats, I know they were in the best place for 2 days whilst I visited family back down south. Will use again and would recommend 100 %
Excellent large 2 storey spaces with cat flap to outside caged area.
Real professionals know what the doing
Superb service. We have 4 cats, one diabetic requiring injections twice a day, and 2 others requiring medication. Pet Maid keeps in touch, giving me the reassurance I need to relax on holiday. The cats are completely at home with her, she gives them lots of love and attention, and when we return the cats behave as if we haven't been away. No sulking!! I find leaving the cats in their familiar environment much better than putting them in a cattery and I thoroughly recommend Pet Maid as a trustworthy and reliable cat sitter.
Fantastic service. Barbara takes such great care of our cats while we're away, we never need to worry about them. The cats love her. We get regular updates including videos or photos so we know they're happy at home. All the little extras are taken care of too including watering plants and putting the bins out when needed. Always goes the extra mile to provide a great service, thoroughly recommend
I would recommend Barbara to EVERYONE! My cats were amazingly looked after by her. She kept me up to date with videos and messages of them whilst I was away, and went out of her way to ensure they were healthy, comfortable and well looked after the whole time I was away. For the first time I felt fully relaxed that my babies were absolutely fine whilst I was on holiday. She went over and above and I shall be telling everyone with fur babies about her.
Amazing attention to detail. Our wee cat is very shy and didn't want to stress her with going into a cattery. Barbara was amazing, Salem was looked after and pampered and so not stressed when we got back. Amazing service for a good price. Will defo use again...sa
Barbara is absolutely fabulous. She has looked after my cats for years and they love her. Even semi-ferral Bramble loves his 'Aunty' Barbara. I totally relax on holiday because I know the cats are in such good hands.
Sara was absolutely wonderful. Things didn't quite go to plan and we had a very poorly cat whilst we were away and she dealt with it so promptly and professionally, we can't thank her enough, she kept in touch, nothing was too much trouble and most importantly our cat is now doing very well :)
Pet maid have looked after my dogs for over 5 years. Very trustworthy, reliable and just all round fantastic. Wouldn’t look anywhere else.
Highly recommend. Walked my dogs for 3 years plus. Reliable & trustworthy.
Andrea has been house sitting and looking after my 2 pups for holidays for a couple of years . They now go to her house and they clearly love going. They are spoilt rotten, have the best walks and full run of the massive garden there. Andrea sends me photos and videos every day meaning I can relax knowing they are happy and chilled. ( see below 😊) I wouldn’t send them anywhere else now so book my holidays around her availability.

Andrea is great with the dogs and they love us going away so that they can have Andrea look after them, taking them for long walks on the beach. Would highly recommend.
Andrea has taken care of our cat for the past 7 months and she takes great care of him. She sends us pictures, our cat trusts her, and she leaves the house in a great state. Would not use anyone else.
