Kind reliable italian couple, professional experience in gardening/pets caring
I have truly won the jackpot with Elena and Francesco. All the rave reviews about this amazing couple is well, well deserved. It was my first time on TH as well as my first time being away from my pets for 2 and a half months so I was quite anxious to leave my home and babies to complete strangers. My concerns were totally invalid! My pets warmed up to them almost immediately! They cared for each one of them like their own, maybe even better than I do! My dog Guapo had a little hotspot that didn’t seem to go away right before they arrive and they tended to it until it was fully healed! My elder cat Lexi with a seasonal skin issue also was in the best fur condition when I came back. They truly cared for the pets just like it’s their own and it really shows. Even my house maid who comes once a week was truly smitten by them! What touched me the most was the home cooked food prepared for me in the fridge when I came back, the home necessities fully restocked which they didn’t have to, the little gifts for me, my pets and my house maid - and a little portrait of me and dog painted by Elena.

Friendly and responsible sitters ready to look after your pets and your place!
Laura and Marcelo were great house sitters! Easy communication, nice updates along the way, our home was very clean at the end and most importantly our dogs were happy and relaxed when we got home. We'd be happy to have Laura and Marcelo back anytime.

Margherita
Margherita is a very enthusiast woman, understanding and reliable. She loves to discover new places and she really loves pets. She stayed with my furry family only for a weekend and they were well cared of, so I hope to have her back the next year, especially cause she lives not far from my place.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet Luca and Martina and to have them look after Jack and Bear. They were quiet and studious guests providing my boys with love, cuddles and walks with regular updates and photos of the fun they were all having in my absence! The boys were incredibly chilled when we returned from our holiday so I knew that they had been well cared for. A few issues arose while we were away and these were dealt with efficiently and without any fuss. And Martina cooked us a delicious supper which was very much appreciated at the end of a long journey home. Luca and Martina are highly recommended and welcome back anytime!

Our house sitters David and Gogie are lovely, glorious and will be welcomed back at any time! It would be a pleasure to see them again. They have cared for our pets and our home as their own, and we could not speak any the higher for them. Wonderful, and we thank them enormously !

This was Ana Maria’s second sit for us and it all went perfectly 🙏🏼😊 She took very good care of our cat and sent us regular updates and pics where we could see how relaxed he was. We came back to a happy cat and very clean flat. Looking forward to having her taking care of our Orion again next year!

Life is better with a cat, and most of them have me at Meow
Some pet parents may be looking for the merest assistance - food in a bowl and a little attention for their pets here and there. That bare minimum is what you will receive with this couple. If that is good enough for you, then great. If not, you should understand that they are not suited to care for your home, and more importantly, your beloved companions. We were quite baffled by how underwhelming these two cared for our pets and our home. Teddy and Bear were fed, yes, but the particulars which were clearly stated in our initial video conversation, and are further detailed in the manual, were quite obviously not followed. Having grown up with dogs for 20 years and had the pleasure of cats as pets/companions for more than 25 years, it was quite obvious by their behavior (particularly Teddy’s) that the care we had requested of them was overlooked. The “plant person” in Lucinda was definitely not present either. We had left clear (in pictures and text messages) which of the plants needed care over the week. Random plants we had NOT requested to be watered or cared for had been (leading to overwatering) and others we had requested were completely neglected, some of which died (a few on our balcony). The respect of our kitchen was completely absent. We were quite taken aback to find dirty dishes, bowls, and glassware put right back in the cupboards, unwashed, stained, littered with food, wine, drink, even lip residue, as if they had been rinsed with water and just thrown back in. It would be impossible to have put them away in such a condition without completely neglecting soap and a dish sponge. It was really, pretty nasty. Throughout our time away, we asked how things were going and from the beginning tried to give reminders about the particularities (because they were late on arrival and we could not see them before we had to leave) to which we were constantly responded to with “I know.” They clearly did not know, or did not care, and used our home like a bachelor pad, trying to clear things up at the last minute, as if we had no awareness of, or insight into, our own home, pets, or plants.

Positive, friendly and open minded woman looking to help.
Carroll was very reliable and extremely responsive. She took care of our dog and also made sure to follow directions regarding our home— i.e. being there to let landscaper into the yard, watering plants, taking out garbage. She also left a very thoughtful gift for our daughter. Thank you, Carroll!
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
Amanda is truly our trusted sitter "find"! She comes back regularly, so much so that our kitties think she is their secondary owner! Always reliable, clean, responsible and most of all loves our cats as much as we do! Good communicator, self reliant - all in all a perfect "10"!
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
