"We honestly could not have asked for a better catsitter than Ghawady. From the moment we met her, you could tell she is a true animal person. She was so kind, calm and genuinely loving with our fur babies.
She took incredible care of them and went above and beyond with updates. We received so many photos and videos while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was so reassuring seeing how happy and relaxed our cats were in her care.
She also left our home spotless and treated it with so much respect, which we really appreciated.
The funniest part is that when we got home, our cats barely cared we were back. They genuinely seemed to miss their catsitter, which says everything.
We would happily have Ghawady back anytime and cannot recommend her highly enough. đđž"

"Vanessa stayed at my house and took fabulous care of my two dogs for an extended time . They were clearly loved and looked after. Which is exactly what as a devoted dog owner you hope for. One of the dogs was recovering from unexpected major surgery do required more attention with medication and lead walks. This dog can be nervous , so Vanessa did a great job of making her feel secure. Vanessa frequently sent photos of the dogs and ask timely and relevant questions about some aspects of care, which were so appreciated. Vanessa was always keen to know each dogs specific needs and l came home to two happy dogs! Thank you Vanessa đ"

"I couldnât have asked for a better sitter than Gerardine! She was incredible with our very shy cat. She had our cat warming up to her in record time, you can tell sheâs such a cat person and the daily updates/photos put us at ease straight away.
We came back to a very tidy and clean house, she even left us a framed picture of Alaska, which was such a special gift!
I highly recommend her if youâre looking for a 10/10 cat sitter. Thanks again G â¤ď¸"

"I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog, Moose, in Ignacio's care for three nights, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first conversation, Ignacio was extremely professional, and his communication was excellent. Like any dog owner, I was a little anxious about leaving Moose with someone new, but as soon as we met Ignacio, I knew he was the perfect fit for the job.
Ignacio and his partner, Maria, are a wonderful couple, and they truly went above and beyond. Ignacio sent regular updates, including pictures and videos of Moose at the dog park, which put my mind at ease. It was clear Moose was having a great time and felt right at home, almost as if he was having a fun sleepover with friends rather than just waiting for me to come back.
When I returned, my house was left in perfect condition, and I could tell Moose had been well cared for. If I could give 6 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would! I highly recommend Ignacio and Maria to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters."

"Niamh did a fantastic job looking after our two West Highland Terriers, Dougie and Angus, and our Maine Coon cat, Apollo, while house sitting our apartment for six nights. She kept in touch throughout our trip with regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind knowing everyone was happy and well looked after.
We came home to three very happy pets and an apartment that was spotless. She had vacuumed, cleaned everything beautifully and even washed her linen before she left, which was a lovely surprise.
I wouldnât hesitate to recommend Niamh to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks again, Niamh. We really appreciate everything you did and weâll definitely be booking you again for our next trip."

"I honestly couldnât have asked for a better pet sitter
From the very beginning, Ellie took the time to really understand my catsâ personalities, routines, and little quirks, which meant so much to me because Luki and Rex can be quite particular and anxious. While I was away, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and attentive hands.
She went above and beyond â not just feeding and cleaning, but genuinely engaging with them, playing with them, and making sure they were comfortable and stress-free. I loved receiving updates and seeing how relaxed and happy my cats were in their own home environment.
Itâs clear Ellie truly cares about animals, and it shows in the way she handles even the small details. Coming home to calm, well-looked-after cats was the best feeling.
I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely amazing pet sitter."

"Adrian had the big task of looking after our crazy young Vizsla, Zia and Milkshake the cat and house sitting for 6 weeks.
Adrian is a great communicator and always keeps in touch, which gave us peace of mind knowing that our tribe was being well cared for and answering any questions along the way.
Adrian left our house the way he found it, maybe even cleaner! We are very grateful that we were able to have someone take care of our animals and be so dedicated and conscientious.
A BIG thumbs up for Adrian :)"

"Maite did a great job looking after our dogs (Irish Wolfhound and two Whippets). She left the place very tidy and the dogs seemed well looked after when we came home. She sent us messages and photos during our holidays so that we knew the doggies were OK. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter. :)"

He house sat for us for several weeks while we were overseas and he looked after the dogs and house very well. Could not be happier. :)"JReview by Julia

"Senaya did an amazing job taking care of my dog, I couldnât have chosen a better sitter. My dog will often stop eating when I go away, but he loved Senaya so much and she made him feel so special, that he continued to eat well the entire time. She spent a lot of quality time with him and made sure to send me updates and pictures, which made me feel comfortable about the care he was receiving. Senaya treated our house with respect and left it tidy upon our return. Whenever I need to leave my dog again, she will be the first point of contact. I would highly recommend her services! "

Georgia was absolutely amazing! She stepped in to look after my dog and cat super last minute and I honestly couldnât have asked for anyone better. She was incredibly friendly, reliable and sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.
Both of my pets absolutely LOVED her, Iâm pretty sure they were disappointed when I came home because they wanted Georgia to stay forever! đ
I wouldnât hesitate to book Georgia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring and brilliant with animals. Thank you so much, Georgia! đž"
