I have had many many pet sitters over the last few years and unfortunately this is the first time I feel the need to write a less than 5 star review. Evin has lots of good reviews and when we met her everything was fine and I felt happy to trust our cats and apartment with her. My biggest disappointment was that 3 days before the end of the sit she messaged saying she was leaving the next day as she had some ‘unexpected news’ and hoped we could ‘work around’ it. They are not plants. I expect a level of commitment for what you agreed to when you are trusted to stay and care for someone’s pets. When we came back the apartment was not as clean as we left it (I really make an effort to make sure everything is really clean for house sitters.) The litter trays were also completely full (more than a couple of days worth). Our bin in the kitchen, which is rather new, had 2 deep dents in the top which Evin didn’t tell us about. There were also some odd things, like it seems like my shoes had been used, as the laces were tied up and pulled tight, and I don’t take my shoes off with the laces done up. And my wardrobe was left ajar, and it was closed when I left. I was really surprised by our negative experience as Evin has lots of positive reviews. She had been travelling for a year and ours was the last sit before she was going back to the US. I can only assume she didn’t have the same commitment to what both sides agree to and expect during a house sit anymore.

Lindsay was a wonderful Housesitter, taking great care of Lexi and my home and was also really flexible with interacting with my friend who needed to stay at my house unexpectedly on one of the nights. Lexi had a great time and I would definitely recommend Lindsay.

Sheridan and Phil have a lovely home in beautiful Woronora and we really enjoyed our time there. Bowie is such a friendly gorgeous dog - he was affectionate and fun right from the start. He's a super active dog (2yo) so needs two walks a day and lots of attention but is otherwise easy to care for. The house had everything you could need including good internet and a great tv with all the streaming services. There's a great cheap fish and chip shop down the road on the river and it's only a short drive to Sutherland shops/train station.

This review is a particularly special one. Our  month long stay at Jess & Jakes house was a true testament to how wonderful the Trusted House Sitters community can be. Our stay began with caring for two beautiful pups, Emma and Maggie. We were informed that Maggie, their elder dog, was recently diagnosed with a health condition that affected her breathing. They provided us with very organized and clear instructions on how to care for Maggie and how to monitor her breathing behavior to ensure she wasn’t experiencing any issues. Unfortunately about 2 weeks weeks into our stay we noticed that Maggie’s health was rapidly declining. This resulted in us needing to bring her to the emergency vet not once but 2 times. An experience like this was a first for us, and while this is the worst case scenario for both pet owner & pet sitter- we are so grateful we got to do it with Jess and Jake. They were so responsive, compassionate, and had everything set up at the vet so that it was such a smooth process to get Maggie the care she needed. Ultimately Jess and Jake decided to fly home from Mexico for a night to be there with Maggie as she was put to rest. The situation was grave, unpredictable, and reminded us to live life while we still got it! We continued the duration of our month stay in their beautiful home with one of the most positively adorable dogs on earth; Emma! We enjoyed many movies on their projector set up (better than the movie theater! Lol) As well, enjoyed our daily walks with Emma in the nearby trails, yoga classes at Twist Yoga studio in Edmonds, and the occasional Boba tea treats at Oasis tea shop in downtown Edmonds! Also Jess and Jake were incredibly kind and gifted us two dinners out at some of their favorite restaurants nearby! As we write this, we are sparked with such a warmth of gratitude! We would 100% recommend this stay :)

We had the best time looking after Grace and Jack! They are absolutely adorable and so much fun. Grace is very playful and kept us thoroughly entertained. Even though Jack is a senior he would turn into a happy little puppy whenever he got a head scratch or taken on a walk. We miss them both so much! The house and area are really beautiful, and Bronwyn and her daughter Sienna were helpful and attentive throughout with good communication before and during our sit.

Suzie
We had a lovely stay at Bilbo's home. 
He was shy at first but like human, needed some time to trust and feel at ease with us. He was easy to take care of and Suzie is very pleasant to communicate with. It was our first experience and surely a delight. 
The house is beautiful and confortable, looking at the sun reflection in the river a pure bliss. 

Thank you Suzie for your trust.
