®Destination Sitters' Reviews
What a great resource Destination Sitters' provides, for parents like me who want the peace of mind of leaving the kids with a safe and responsible young adult, who is also so much fun that the kids are happy to go with them. It gave me a few hours to enjoy the La Costa resort in ways that I couldn't do with the kids. They said their sitter was "awesome." I felt confidence to leave them with him, and I got the rejuvenation I wanted from a few hours at the spa! I will definitely be calling you again!
Our sitter was awesome! We have had the same sitter twice when visiting the San Diego area. Ali was professional, competent, and the kids had a great time! She brought many games and was very attentive. We will definitely use Destination Sitters in the future.
Great service. Michelle was just terrific. She made our vacation that much better.
We had never used a service before, so we were very nervous. The moment we met Laura, we felt at ease. She was very professional and kind. Our daughter liked her immediately. Additionally, the service was easy to use and set-up. The staff was easy to work with and courteous. We really appreciated the advanced information regarding the sitter. She even called us ahead of time to check in. Very good experience.
I just left this review on Yelp and thought I'd share with you: Our family went on a work/family trip to Anaheim. I spent my days with our two daughters (ages 9 & 7) while my husband was at his conference. At night, the husband and I had many events to attend. We hired Destination Sitters on a recommendation from a co-worker. We were assigned Kathy N. as our sitter and could not have received a better sitter for our girls! She has a nurturing personality, along with an education background. She kept our girls thoroughly entertained by bringing her own games to play with them, her swimsuit to hang out at the pool, and her genuine attitude of caring about children. Never once did we have a doubt the girls were well taken care of, as all they could talk about the next day was how much fun they had with Kathy. If you're traveling and need a sitter, put your mind at ease and go with Destination Sitters!
I was traveling from the East for a week-long conference. Since my children were young and we had never been separated I needed to bring them with me. Having Disneyland nearby was just a bonus. If I had to fly a sitter out with me and also pay for her room and travel there was no way to afford it. I found DS online and loved that you pre-screened all your sitters so well. It made me feel so comfortable with all the choices. Since I would be working all day, I wanted a lifeguard who would take them to the pool all day and out of the hotel room. DS made sure to send us one so that I knew the boys would be safe without me around. She fed them lunch and had them down for late afternoon naps so when I got back at five thirty they were ready for a quick dinner and still had enough energy to try the parks for a few hours. Our trip was perfect and would not have possible without your service. Thank you for helping us create memories to last a lifetime. PS: the boys still ask about our sitter and would love for her to come and visit:)
