Angela and Denisse really saved us. We thought we had a housesitter and then received an email from the site saying that there was a problem with our original choice -- two days before we were supposed to go on vacation. We reposted, and happily Angela saw our listing, and we quickly set up a meeting with her and decided to take a chance with her and Denisse. It was a perfect match. We have three rescue animals, a dog and two cats. One of our cats is so fearful, he usually hides in the garage for most if not all of our trips. On day two, he made an appearance with them. We got lots of photos of happy, unstressed animals, which for us is the main reason why we want someone to house sit. She reached out regularly with updates, which was very much appreciated. Nothing was broken, which can happen with normal wear and tear, and also unprecedented. Everything was neat and orderly when we returned, and Angela even reached out when she hadn't heard from us because of traffic delaying us on our way home. I can't recommend them enough for being caring to our animals and considerate of our house. This was such a rushed reservation, but after meeting Angela I had a very good feeling and the photos confirmed they were kind to our animals and respectful. They were truly delightful to have stay, and I would highly recommend them both as housesitters.

Victoria and Olivia were the perfect sitters for us and our guy Hank. Victoria was great about making sure the dogs met in a thoughtful way and let us know right away that they hit it off. Hank and Olivia seemed to get along so well, it was nice that he got a pet pal in addition to Victoria. Victoria was a great communicator, very self sufficient and super easy going. She was great about sending us daily pupdates of Hank and Olivia out on walks and hanging out. It was very obvious that Hank and our home was well taken care of. We came home to a spotless home and clean sheets. We would gladly welcome both Victoria and Olivia back anytime, they were awesome!

I had a wonderful time at Leah and her family's home. The place was cosy, well kept and in a location conveniently connected to the underground, overground and buses. 

Leah made it super easy to understand how to look after all their lovely animals. I really enjoyed cuddling with Obi on the couch and taking him for walks along the canal, hand feeding the cute guinea pigs their daily greens, watching the fish and frogs swimming around and sometimes catching a glimpse of Chaz running in and out of the house!

I would recommend Leah and her animal sanctuary of a home (as I like to call it!!) to any animal lovers looking for a sit in London. Thanks so much 😍🌞

It’s was a treat to look after Lexi for Debbie and Jerry in their beautiful Sun City West home. 

The center of universe is Lexi and she commands that role with grace. Although she is not high maintenance (being a very healthy independent feline), she does have a way of letting you know when it’s time to entertain her or shower her with affection and adorations. 

However your rewards are great, Debbie and Jerry are very kind and personable. Their  home is not only beautiful, it is also located in a safe gated community. The house and the community are beyond clean and organized. You will lack for nothing. A car would be a benefit as there are not many shops in the immediate area. 

We are pet sitting Lexi again and would do so in future wherever our schedules align.

Lisa
A great experience. Both dogs are easy going and nice company, and the house and area is beautiful.  Lisa and her family made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and communication with them while they were away was great. We would be very happy to return, and wish you all well.

Nicole
This was a perfect housesit! Sissy is the cutest, super sweet and gentle. She loves to cuddle. Nicole has a lovely home with beautiful views. She made everything very clear and was easy to contact if I had any questions. Highly recommend!

Silva
A really nice dog and housesit experience. Silva gave us a warm welcome in her lovely house in the nature on top of the mountain. Aya is a great, loyal dog. She loves cuddles, bananas and free running walks :). The house is very cozy and has a beautiful garden. A perfect place to rest in the nature and having the possibilty to go by foot to discover the city Celje. Aya doesnt ask for much, you only needs to give her love :) Respect Silva's place, its so nice there. Thank you so much to give us this chance!

Foster and the cats are super warm and welcoming, as is Stacey and the community there! I already miss Foster, Tate and Luna. The beach is a stones throw from the place, as well as stores for whatever you'd need during a stay. Seeing the 4th of July fireworks from the rooftop is not something I'll soon forget!
