Cat Sitters in Thompsonville, CT

Tracy & Thien

Thien and Tracy did a fantastic job for us. Thien came earlier, Tracy toward the end, as had been agreed to. Thien took great care of house, yard and dog, Molly, during the 14 days we were gone. When we staggered in late after about 18 hours of travel, the house was in wonderful order -- probably better than we left it -- and Thien had made a delicious soup for us (which we had for breakfast as we went immediately to bed). Molly has been a bit sad since they left, so we are sure they both did a great job with her. Anyone looking for a house or pet sitter, or combination, can't go wrong with Thien and Tracy!

Mary

Mary was the perfect house sitter for my cats. She is a lovely person, very responsible, and clearly loves animals. And the house was in better condition when I returned than when I left! I would fully recommend her as a house sitter in the future!

Steven

We were very pleased with Steven’s care for our much loved Corgi, Griffin, and our home in The Villages, FL. Steven is a Corgi lover since he had his own, Gingersnap, who unfortunately passed last year. He left our home cleaner than we had left for him and he welcomed us back with a “You are Special” balloon, an orchid and a gift card for grooming Griffin. We highly recommend Steven to anyone who may need his care.

Sophie

Sophie is fantastic! I had a number of unexpected occurrences while she was here and she handled everything with aplomb! My house was spotless when I returned, my animals happy, and best of all, she had made my bed with clean sheets so I didn't have to do it at 3 am!!!! Sophie is perfect.

Christine & Mark

Christine and Mark were the perfect pet and house sitters! We went away for 6 days and left our 4 animals (!!) in their care, 2 senior dogs and 2 cats. By night 1 our skittish cat was already comfortable with them (which is rare!) and hanging by their sides. Christine and Mark are both animal people and it shows. They even brought along their own pet first aid kit in case of emergencies! We returned to a sparkling clean home and happy, healthy animals. What more could you ask for? Thanks Christine and Mark!

Dix

We really enjoyed the chance to meet Dix and Linda! We were able to get together before the sit for a fun visit, and to tour our home and introduce our dog, Carson. We knew our home and pup would be well looked after so we could enjoy our trip with no worries. We returned to a happy dog and perfectly clean home- and well tended vegetable beds. We look forward to having Dix and Linda come again!!

Sue

Sue is/was easy to communicate with before and during the house sit. She asked questions and read the house guide book to make sure all was taken care of. The cats warmed up to her and were so well cared for... even our spicy kitty Eva. She left the house neat and tidy in all ways. She texted us pet photos everyday and and update. We are so grateful she applied to our sit :) Your very lucky if Sue applies to house/pet sit for you :)

John

John is an amazing dog sitter. Our old pooch took to him immediately as if they were old friends. The night we got back our dog went searching for John at bedtime, missing him already. During his first night at our house a tree fell on our porch and garage. John sent us photos and assured us that no damaged happened to any windows or roofs. Communication was clear and easy and John was quite flexible about timing. Our house was immaculate upon our return and John even managed to get the bed linens washed and dried before we got back. YOU can't go wrong with John.

Tasnim

Tasnim was a great sitter for my cat, Jasper! She sent the cutest videos and pictures every other day and left the house extremely clean too. I would definitely recommend Tasnim for other house sits and would be happy to have her house sit for me again!

Florencia & Agustina

Florencia and Agustina are great!

Karolina & Ryan

Great sitters! I came home to a happy cat and a clean home.

Sheila

Sheila took amazing care of our two cats while we were gone for Christmas. She gave our cats so much love and took great care of our house. She is a great communicator and was really easy to coordinate with. I’d gladly have Sheila back to sit for us any time!

Chris

Due to a family emergency Sam came to look after Billy on his own. We are very grateful to them both for accommodating us despite their own personal circumstances. 

Sam was superb & Billy clearly adored him when we returned. Sam kept Billy to his routines and I think Billy loved having 11 days of ‘just boys time’. 

Sam is a lovely guy. Very respectful and easy going. He sent us regular little updates with pics of Billy having a great time. The house was immaculate on our return and Sam had even washed all the bedding and towels which was a lovely touch.

Thanks Sam, you looked after Billy brilliantly!

Penelope

Harry and Susan were wonderful sitters.  They arrived on the dot of the pre-arranged time so we were able to have a few hours handing over and finding the start of some local walks.  They kept in good contact with us throughout and Feather was obviously very happy and contented.  Despite us returning slightly earlier than expected they left the house beautifully clean and tidy.  I can highly recommend them as pet/house sitters and would love them to come again should they so wish.
