“We’ve been using Hannah for a few months now and she’s the best! Super reliable, communicative, and always attentive to Azul’s routine. He has separation anxiety so there’s a few extra steps involved in his care, and she’s always so thoughtful about handling everything. It’s such a relief having someone dependable we can trust with him :)”

“Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.”

“Sarah was a fantastic sitter from start to finish. We've had some terrible experiences with sitters over the years, so we know (and appreciate!) a good one when we find one. From my first interaction with Sarah, she was responsive, professional, and very pleasant. She took excellent care of our 3 dogs and older cat. They are a cute crew- but a lot of work! Sarah made it look easy, and she left our home in great shape too. Highly recommend!”

About: I'm Batool and I'm 24 years old. I grew up in a home that loved taking stray cats in and have taken care of animals for most of my life. I've walked, played with and house sat for my co-workers' and clients' dogs. I'm most comfortable with small and medium sized dogs and I love hanging out with high energy puppies. I'm reliable, I prioritise open and clear communication, and I'm available to take care of your furry friend as my own. I'm currently job searching for full-time roles, and have plenty of time during the week and the weekends to walk, play with and spend quality time with your pet. I prioritise respecting my clients' space and following the routine they maintain for their pet. For walks, potty breaks and food I ensure punctuality. I understand every dog has their own personality and needs, and I account for it in my care. If your pup just needs me to be around, I'm around. If your pup loves loads of play time, I'm ready to play.

My pups and cat love when Deniz house sits them! On her last stay most of my pets ended up getting sick and she took great care of them cleaning up and even going out of her way to pick up a prescription from the pharmacy for one of them. My senior is on several meds and she is able to follow the complicated schedule including last-minute updates when we needed to add in a new prescription.

Richard was wonderful to my menagerie - two dogs and a cat. He did a great job of communicating with me and sent some cute photos of my babies. I'm an anxious mom, and I felt very relaxed from day one because they were in good hands. In fact, I think they may miss Richard more than they missed me when I left!

Rebecca was great! She was very communicative and was friendly during our meet and greet. One of our neighbors commented on how gentle and patient she was with our senior dog. She left our home in perfect condition and sent pictures once a day as requested. I would definitely have Rebecca take care of our dog again.

It was so reassuring to know Bella was in such capable and caring hands. I truly cannot recommend Kenneth enough, if you're looking for a sitter, look no further!

Gabriela did a wonderful job housesitting and taking care of my cat Bob. He’s an only cat and really thrives off of human love and attention. Because of this, I often get nervous and guilty leaving town. But Gabriela gave Bob tons of love and did an excellent job making sure he got plenty of exercise and stimulation.

Victoria was so great! She was very responsive and wonderful with communication. We had a somewhat last minute out of trip plan and she made time to come over to meet our pets before the weekend. She was prepared and had all of their info at her fingertips. Over the weekend we were away she kept in contact and sent the cutest pictures. We had a better time knowing our pets were in such good and caring hands with Victoria.

We had such a wonderful experience with Elizabeth! She came through for us in a last-minute bind, and I’m so incredibly grateful she was able to help us out. Tyson is a senior dog who needs a little extra patience, attention, and care these days, and she was so sweet and patient with him the entire time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was getting lots of love and was in such caring hands while we were away. She was also fantastic about keeping me updated and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. I never had to wonder how Tyson was doing because she kept me in the loop throughout the stay. On top of taking such great care of him, we came home to a clean and tidy house. I’m so grateful for the love and patience she showed Tyson, especially stepping in for us on such short notice. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets and their home, and I would happily book with her again!
