"I had Jessica stay at my home to care for my elderly cat, Marty, who has ongoing medical needs, for 10 nights while I was away. What initially drew me to her was her profile, which mentioned her experience with senior pets requiring special care—and I’m so glad I trusted my instincts, as she absolutely lived up to that impression.
From the outset, Jessica showed genuine enthusiasm and care. She was eager to come and meet both Marty and me as soon as I made contact, which immediately put me at ease. She asked thoughtful questions to fully understand Marty’s routine, behaviours, and medical requirements.
Jessica provided me with daily updates, with detailed notes on Marty’s habits, moods, and any changes she noticed. On top of that, she handled a fair bit of cleanup due to Marty’s condition, which I was incredibly grateful for—and I returned to a spotless home.
Jessica was kind, responsible, and truly attentive throughout the entire stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, especially for animals needing a little extra care. 10 out of 10 from me!"

"Cassandra's care of our Corgi , Sunny was exemplary. She went above and beyond to ensure that Sunny was well looked after and happy. In addition to his regular twice daily walks, she took time out during weekends and a public holiday to take him for numerous outings to the beach, city and a family picnic.
She regularly sent photographs and videos of these events and it was evident that he enjoyed himself thoroughly. This was particularly impressive as his behaviour seemed to improve while he was with her and reinforced her dog training credentials.
Sunny displayed both exuberance and obedience in equal measure when he was in Cassandra’s presence.
I would not hesitate in recommending Cassandra to anyone who needs a dog sitter and would also not hesitate in using her again. Cassandra’s professionalism, enthusiasm and overall attention to detail was outstanding.

"Jorge took care of my pets for an entire weekend. He stayed at our home and made sure that all of our 5 pets (cats and dogs) were fed and loved. Our dogs are very anxious and do not like meeting new people. Jorge was very patient with them. He sent us regular updates and left the house in a better state than it was in. I will definitely book him again. "

"Zoé is a lovely pet sitter. She was able to pet sit at our home on short notice; cared and cleaned even for our cats despite her dog centred profile. She is a lover of animals. She sent daily photos and walked our dog daily, socialising her with other dogs and people. We definitely recommend her to care for your fur babies."

"We are so happy with Susannah’s lovely care of our boy Grandpa! He is a rescue cattle dog and she was very sensitive of his needs and was very loving when she met him.
Grandpa was also very tuckered out when we got home, which is a wonderful sign that he got all the exercise that he needs! ☺
She was so happy to receive lots of info about Grandpa and the house, which made us feel very confident. She also kept in great contact whilst we were away, and watered our plants for us ☺
Attentive, friendly, conscientious! 👏"

"Agata looked after our cat Effie and did a wonderful job. She arrived on time and answered messages quickly, so we always knew where things stood. She won Effie over very quickly and had a lovely manner with her. She spent a lot of time playing with her, which we appreciated.
She was an excellent house sitter as well. She kept us well up to date on how Effie was going and how the house was holding up. She left the place clean and tidy and took the rubbish out.
Overall, Agata was great. She was respectful of our home and clearly loves animals We would happily have her back and recommend her to anyone."

"Jane provided fantastic care for our dog, Tilly. Jane kept us updated with photos and videos whilst we were away. Tilly requires medication on a daily basis and Jane administered the meds without issue. We returned to a clean home and a calm pet. I highly recommend Jane for a professional and caring approach. We’d love to have Jane back for our next sit."
