Polly took great care of my dog and left my place very tidy! I would definitely recommend her for sitting.

Polly was fantastic. She took great care of my animals and my house was tidier when I returned than when I left it! I look forward to having her sit again.

Polly is a pro. Fergal was well-taken care of and our house was tidy upon our return. Five stars!

Polly is a very kind and trustworthy person and we absolutely loved having her back for a repeat sit. Everything went perfectly. Thanks again!

Polly took great care of our two pups and our home while we were away. She formed an instant bond with our dogs and we had no worries while we were on

Polly housesat for us last March while we were travelling (her husband was unable to make the trip, so she came on her own). She was absolutely wonderful! She bonded immediately with our pets and took great care of things during her stay. She is kind and calm and highly committed to her responsibilities. She's a lovely and interesting lady, and we feel quite privileged to have hosted her. We can recommend her with complete confidence and the highest regard.

About

I am a very loving and experienced pet and house sitter and have taken care of dogs and cats (mostly) in the US and abroad for 18+ years. I dog and cat sit with my husband Tom when we go to New Zealand to visit our grandchildren, but

Why I want to house sit

I enjoy expanding my travel experience while caring for other folks' dogs and cats. It's fun to get a sense of living life like the locals and staying in one place. Being a petsitter gives me that opportunity. It's a great experience
