Cat Sitters in West Roxbury, MA

Craig

Craig and Jon were the best. We couldn't have hoped for better people to take care of our cats and our home. They are exactly how they come across on their profile - Friendly, professional, trust worthy and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed getting their updates and pictures and it was such a joy to come back to a cosy, tidy home. The cats loved them. We feel truly lucky to have met them and we hope they can come back to sit for us in the future.

Taylor

Taylor was such a sweet and thoughtful sitter. She was also flexible and communicative. I recommend her very highly!

Matthew

Matthew and Jessica took good care of Rosie, Jack, and Woody. They enjoyed their time here and left our condo in good shape. They borrowed our car and filled up the gas tank, which we appreciated

Elena

Elena is a fantastic pet sitter, she took care of our two cats for a week with much love. They were calm around her which means she made them feel safe. She updated us with pictures daily and left the house really clean! Would 100 percent recommend Elena and would be delighted to have her stay at our place again!

George & Katerina

George and Katie were great communicators and we felt so lucky they were hanging out with our boys while we were on our trip. When we arrived back home the house was clean and the boys were well taken care of. We would love to have them back!

Yasmine

Wonderful, caring sitter. Will be delighted to have her again.

Rebecca "Erin"

Erin was reliable and responsive. Wonderful care for both my pup and my home.

Dhrooti

Dhrooti was perfect! She communicated thoroughly and responded quickly. She left my home immaculately clean and was very respectful of my personal space. She was also very attentive to my cat who didn't even seem to miss me, since she was so well-loved under Dhrooti's care. I would definitely re-book Dhrooti and I recommend her with enthusiasm and without reservation.

Melissa

Melissa is wonderful! So easy to communicate with, and was very flexible about meeting us the day before we left to receive our keys and learn about Harvey's routine. Melissa brought up our mail and stashed it away so Harvey wouldn't bite it (one of his favourite things to do). We received updates about Harvey via WhatsApp and when I came back home he seemed so happy and calm. The apartment was very clean and tidy, and Melissa gifted us some handmade soaps, which smell amazing! I highly recommend Melissa as a sitter.

Maureen

Maureen helped to look after Kobe at short notice with her cousin for two nights. She kept in contact and Kobe was sleepy and happy on my return. Maureen left my flat clean and tidy and provided a good care for the few nights. Thank you.

Juliet

Juliet took great care of my dog and my home and I’m so grateful!

Sarah

Sarah was a great dog/house sitter, I would gladly have her at my home again! She genuinely cared about ensuring my house and precious boy were happy. I have an Aussie, so they can be quarky and hard to warm up to strangers and she did a great job giving him space and love until he felt comfortable. Thank you so much!

Kristen

Mitali was very proactive and responsible. She had good communication and asked good questions. She bonded with Koa right away. She shared pictures of Koa throughout her stay and spent lots of quality time with Koa! I came home to a clean house and a happy dog!

Souhaila

James and Linda open from the beginning, excellent listeners and impeccable house and pet sitters. Our dog was thrilled to meet them, (I am sure the fish was too), with their friendly demeanour and clear love of dogs. When we returned from holiday, they were so considerate and prepped our house for our return. It was a joy to find our home, garden and pets in such a happy, cared for state. We very much appreciated the periodic emails we received updating us on their time wiht Star, our dog, and they  were comfortable to ask questions about the house if they were not sure. We continue to stay in touch during their their long trip, I cannot recommend them enough for future house and pet sits. In looking forward to seeing them again soon, Souhaila and Gordon.
