Pet Sitters in West Homestead, PA

Courtney & Michael

Courtney and Michael were just perfect! They were friendly and easy to chat with and we felt immediately comfortable leaving our house and pets in their hands. They provided daily updates and left no trace - I'm pretty sure our house was cleaner when we got home than when we left! I'm super happy they are local as I will definitely be calling on them again.

Lindsey

Lindsey flew across the country to care for our home and our 17-month-old standard poodle, Ozzie. We were a bit nervous about leaving him with someone new while we spent two weeks in Europe, but we instantly felt at ease when Lindsey arrived. She took exceptional care of our pup, home, and garden. She made sure to exercise Ozzie regularly, sending us daily photos and videos of their escapades, and she gave him all the love and attention he needed – and more! Some of the photos of them together were so cute. We laughed every time we received the latest “Lindsey gram”! Lindsey is an honest, caring, and very resourceful person who takes her responsibilities seriously. We were all sad to say goodbye – especially Ozzie. We highly recommend Lindsey to anyone seeking the most excellent care for their pets and homes, but we would really like to keep her for ourselves. Peggy and Greg

Morgan

Morgan was amazing! She was reliable, flexible and dependable. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our pets and home. Thanks gain Morgan!!

Kayla

Kayla was fantastic! My dogs loved her and were so happy when I got home. She also left my house way cleaner than I left it! Would recommend her to anyone! Thanks so much, Kayla!

Marc & Kathryn

Marc and Kathryn were awesome sitters for Charlie. They were super attentive and caring, sending photos and checking in. They took care of our home and left it spotless. We’re so grateful to them, and would highly recommend.

Deanna & Rocco

They were great. Communicated well before during and as leaving. The house was just as we left it. And the dogs were happy. They reported they played ball and walked the dogs (minding our concerns for heat), fed the dogs in the ways we requested, etc. very pleased!

Marianna

Marianna and her son watched our pets for a weekend. They were both communicative, caring, and clean, and we'd be happy for them to visit again!

Katrina

Katrina watched our 4 cats & house for six days in January. She not only is a 5-star sitter on every level, she also sent us incredible photos (some in our profile now, with her permission), and gifted us a no-anxiety trip. In addition, we had recently adopted a new puppy who had taken a lot of attention away from the cats. When we returned they had adjusted so much better with all the attention Katrina gave them (no pup around), and since then our integration of pup with cats is going better as a result. Highly recommend Katrina for upcoming sits.

Kristi

Kristi was once again a star-sitter! She kept me posted with photos and I returned home to a happy kitty and spotless house. Kristi is welcome to stay here anytime :)

Victoria & Hayden

Victoria and Hayden did a fantastic job of looking after my two aging kitties while I was away for two and a half weeks. I was particularly grateful to have such reliable sitters as one of my babies has reduced kidney function and needs extra attention and dietary supplements. Victoria and Hayden managed to give him a paste (which he hates and struggles to get away), and fiber powder (which he is also not super keen on and thus needs some coaxing) every day while I was away and never expressed any difficulties. At one point, Bailey was eating less than normal and they let me know and together we tried another approach to get him interested in his food again (which worked and they let me know how he was doing). Communication was good before, during and after the trip. I really appreciated Victoria and Hayden making the extra effort to arrive the day before my departure so that we could meet and go over the cats' routine together. It was immediately evident to me that they would take good care of my two kitties and look after the house, and that is exactly what they did! Not only did Victoria and Hayden do a good job cat and housing sitting, but they were also incredibly understanding when the hot water heater stopped working and we were unable to find a solution to the problem working together over the phone (indeed it ended up needing to be completely replaced!) Overall, a great experience for both the kitties and me and I hope they come back again in the future!

Jordan & Steve

Jordan and Steve were great with communication and proactive in asking questions when needed. While I’m unsure if they’ve had experience with a puppy Brooklyn’s age, she did seem a bit anxious initially, possibly from not getting enough exercise. Once they started taking her on more off-leash walks and visiting the nearby Good Dog Dog Park, she seemed to settle down and be better behaved for them. They took good care of our home and indoor plants, and I’d be happy to have them back when Brooklyn is a bit older and has less puppy energy.

Kirsten

Kirsten and Rachel were fantastic. They were communicative and responsible. Our dogs were so fond of them. Will let them sit again.

Steve

What a fun and lovely week we spent with sweet Miss Lucy Loo ...and we mean SWEET. Steve and Kay live on a beautiful and expansive property - a nature lover's paradise! It's tranquil with forest areas, little streams and creeks, all kinds of bird life, and deer. There are awesome trails you can hike/walk with Lucy, and boy does she love her walks! She get's real excited when it's food time too - she's bounces like a happy little bunny :) Along with her walks and some playtime, she enjoys her afternoon snoozes,  watching movies/TV, and is a real snuggler and cuddler. She gives the best hugs!

Steve and Kay are great communicators, and stayed in touch during the sit. We had a nice initital chat and online correspondence with Steve before the sit, and spent a few hours with them the afternoon before the sit so that we could connect with Lucy, explore the property, and get aquainted with their home. They left a nice welcome guide, and truly set us up for a successful sit. Both of them are incredibly talented in the arts, and are wonderful and welcoming hosts. We felt very comfortable, relaxed, and enjoyed every second of our time there.

Thank you Steve and Kay, we hope to return again. Hugs to Miss Lucy Loo:)

Holly

I fell in live with Nori and Voodoo, what an amazing, sweet cats they both are. Nori is very cuddly from day 1, Voodoo needs a bit more time, but when she’s ready.. she won’t let any opportunity for a snuggle pass by! They are very easy to care for with their sweet characters. 
Holly and Cher are perfect hosts, the communication was very welcoming, warm and friendly from the beginning. Their apartment is great too: very light, comfortable, at a minute walk from the beautiful beach of Nazaré and with everything you need at hand; coffee, restaurants, shops etc. 
This was an amazing cat sit, I already miss those two little fluff balls and hope to be back some day! Obrigada Holly and Cher for this perfect sit!
