Sam's care of my elderly, disabled and sometimes difficult cat has been excellent. He has recently been a very poorly boy so I was nervous about going away…

Sam is an excellent house/pet sitter. She looked after my cat very well and kept me updated. My home was spotlessly clean on my return. I highly recommend…

I connected with Sam on another platform for regular pet sitting of my cat in November 2023. I didn’t know her before, and she’s so far been once for a few days. I have a few years experience using Trusted House Sitters. The house was tidy on my return, and my cat seemed fine, well cared for. I found Sam to be a great communicator, sending me little messages every day. She is organised and friendly. She has a public profile as an academic and I’d say she is indeed a trusted housesitter!
