Top rated Ilchester house sitters

“Nicole did a really great job with our boys! She went above and beyond and even bought them doggy ice cream because of the hot weather. I’d recommend her to any of my friends or family. She always replied to my messages super quickly, and provided updates along the way. Thank you for taking such good care of our doggies in our space!”


“Shania watched Gizmo for a few days and made sure all of his needs were met and sent me pics of a healthy, happy pup!! She also left my home immaculate. Would absolutely book in the future!”


“Nikki is fantastic and our animals love her! She is flexible and willing to work with your needs. One of our dogs has separation anxiety and freaks out when we leave with suitcases, so Nikki got to our house before we left and took the dogs on a walk so they wouldn't see us leave, which made a huge difference. She also sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were gone. I'll be reaching out to her first for pet care from now on.”



“Maggie and Milo had another great day with Lyndsay. Received adorable videos and pictures throughout the day. Also took dogs out before she left and left a super helpful times of last potty breaks. Lyndsay truly treats my dogs like her own and we are so grateful.”


“Menkaure did a great job house sitting for Watson during our weeklong trip. My dog is an older dog that needs a lot of care and TLC. This is our first time having a house sitter but decided to give it a try. Came home after our trip and he is happy. Will book again next time if we need a house sitter.”


“Madison did a great job with our dog! She was very quick to respond to messages and provided many updates throughout the week. We returned from our trip to a clean house!”


“Aryanna was wonderful. The dogs seemed to like her and were content to be with her. Especially the one dog who is very anxious about everything and everyone. Aryanna also took the initiative to take care of some of the chores such as taking the trash out. I really appreciated that. I would definitely rebook with her.”


“Pj took such good care of our baby for a whole week and we booked her last minute. She was extremely accommodating and our dog warmed up to her quick. We certainly felt like he was taken care of and in good hands while we were away!”


“Emily did an excellent job caring for my dog and house. She was a fantastic communicator and sent me frequent photos of my dog to keep me updated on his day. She also left the house very clean. We have already booked her for another trip. I highly recommend Emily!”


“We were very happy with Susan as a pet sitter. She was very attentive to and engaging with our dog, followed all our instructions, and sent a nice amount of text updates and photos of Bruno. We highly recommend Susan.”


“Excellent sitter! Brent took great care of our dog and hedgehog, leaving us with no worries as we enjoyed our family vacation. We will definitely book with Brent again 👍”


“We had a fantastic experience with Shuze A. house-sitting our two large labs and cat. She was flexible with our last-minute schedule changes and kept us updated with pictures while we were away. Shuze even created feeding charts from the notes we left and reached out with any questions to make sure everything was done just right. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pets were so well cared for. We will absolutely recommend her and look forward to using her again in the future!”


“Marissa is so sweet and kind, my dogs enjoy it when she babysits them. My one dog is apprehensive of strangers but he came around to Marissa pretty quickly. I highly recommend Marissa for your pet sitting needs.”


“Abby and Chris were great! Very trustworthy people. Our dog was protectively barked the whole time during the meet & greet and they handled her with patience and kindness - so much so that she didn’t bark at all when they returned to care for her! Our dog is a senior with some health issues and has a special routine/schedule and Abby & Chris were able to accommodate. They were flexible and understanding and took great care of our girl. I highly recommend!”


“Hollie is always incredible with our three babies. They love her to death and one of my cats is wandering around crying for her right now while he’s ignoring me! 😂 You can’t find a better sitter than Hollie!”
