I think my cats really liked Catarina and Remi, evident from the timely updates and photos. I initially had trepidations about my long haired cat Clementine, who is prone to mats in her fur, especially when I am gone for 4 weeks. No problem! She was in fabulous shape when I returned, not a single mat to be seen. I was so happy. House sitting can be harder than one might imagine. And mine is a large house, where many rooms are lived in in the course of a month, with two people and four cats. I think this was the first long sit for Catarina and Remi, and perhaps they aren’t often guests in peoples homes for weeks at a time. I arrived home to weeks of dirty towels to be laundered, and dirty linens still on the bed. Yikes! Towards the end of the sit, they’d requested (at their expense) a housekeeper to clean after they left and before I arrived home. And that was good. As scheduling and last minute plans happen, it was I who arrived first, ahead of the housekeeper. And I was glad they’d seen that they needed help. It’s a chore and you have to stay on top of it. Bathrooms, kitchen, it’s a lot to tend to. I’ve only recently discovered the forums, and I’m sure one can find lots of info on what homeowners expect upon return. My month out of the country was made easier with timely updates and happy and clean cats when I came home. Catarina was very intuitive and gave me a heads up on my senior kitty who’s hair had become quite oily, and I appreciate that. Great cat care.

Nora was everything you could have asked for in a house sitter. She asked really thoughtful questions that made us feel like she cared. She read and re-read our house guide and made sure she fully understood her duties before we left. She even came by a day early to meet the cats and have lunch with us so we would feel comfortable with each other, which we appreciated. While we were gone, Nora sent us daily updates about the cats and our plants. She even would ask for advice on some of my plants to save them from dying in the summer heat. We also let her use my car which we felt comfortable leaving with her because we saw how careful she drove another house sitters car when she came the day before. She was willing to sign an agreement with us before hand, we had her covered on our insurance and she assured us she would only use it for the grocery store and places that were too far away. You could tell she took good care of the car and I think she even cleaned it! When we came home the house was so clean and well maintained. My plants were thriving and so were the cats! They were quiet and purring when we came home which was a sign that they were very happy. Nora is just a really good person to have in your home. You can tel she really loves animals and cares about your home and your animals well being. She even reconnected a dog she saw roaming around with their rightful owner. That is very telling of her personality. We highly recommend Nora and hope one day we can have her visit again!

We couldn’t have been happier finding Richard and Sarah to take care of our two small dogs. 
From their initial communication till the moment we met them, we felt their warmth and professionalism.  They took the time to come a couple of days earlier to get to know us and our pooches, asked all the right questions and were very easy to be with.  In fact, we had a lot of fun.

We couldn’t have felt more at ease going away and leaving the house and Soxy & Minnie in their care.  

Thank you, Richard & Sarah, you were great, we felt blessed to have found you and we certainly hope you will come and sit for us again whenever you can.

Alice was the best!! She took care of Rufus for four weeks, she would send constant messages with pictures, and made sure that my dog Rufus was getting enough activity. 
My flight back got canceled so I ended up arriving a day later and Alice was able to accommodate and help with the stress of a last minute canceled flight. She was clean and organized and I came back to an apartment in perfect conditions.
I give Alice a 10/10 stars and I would definitely invite her to sit again if she’s ever in SF again!

Tiffany was a very reliable, caring and engaged pet sitter for us.  She did two interviews with us (the second one being the orientation to our home & pets) and came with excellent and thoughtful questions always keeping our pets in mind.  She was quick to get our system for our pets and our home.  She was responsive to us while we were away and sent pics of our babies.  When we came home the house was neat and tidy and our animals looked well cared for.  Thank you Tiffany!  See you in November for another go round!
