Erica
Emslie, Buffalo
Retired Canadians - Animal and travel lovers
Erica and Chris were absolutely amazing. From our first interactions, to the way our home was maintained when we got home, we truly couldn’t have asked for anything better! Chris went above and beyond on many occasions - fixing wobbly tables and raising our back gate. Erica mowed our grass and both of them were genuine and kind humans! Our dogs and cats were so happy when we got home. Thanks Erica and Chris!!!
Karen
Emslie, Buffalo
Reliable pet lover.
Karen was one of the most organized sitters. She communicated regularly and did not hesitate to ask questions which we appreciated as it showed her concern for all of our animals. It was a lengthy sit of two weeks and she took amazing care of our home and animals. She was dedicated to making sure the dogs all had exercise and attention and successfully wrangled the goats even though she was sitting solo and had never tended to goats before. TH members would be very fortunate if Karen chooses their sits in the future, she is highly recommended!

This was Michael's second sit with my cats, and I have nothing but good things to say about him. He's compassionate, tidy and really great with my cats, including some particularly timid strays. Also, Michael had to complete a handover with another sitter during this sit and with his help the whole process went very smoothly. Of course, once again, I would gladly invite him to house sit anytime! Thanks, Michael!
Susan
Emslie, Buffalo
Remote worker looking to provide you with excellent care for your pets.
We would give Susan 5 plus stars if possible on all accounts! She bonded with our cat, she took great care of the garden and house and left it cleaner than we did 5 weeks ago. She was easy to communicate with and totally reliable. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Zeewoi. We would love to have her again next time we travel.
Mary
Emslie, Buffalo
Reliable pet-loving professionals seeking new adventures...
From the outset I was very confident that Mary & Ian were ideal sitters to cope with the nuances of my furry family of 3 ! As . We had chatted several times on Whatssap, and both had had cats as pets over many years, and a wealth of life experience living with cats!! As soon as they arrived Mary & Ian set about familiarising themselves with the apartment layout and then observing the foibles of Mau, Kitty& Toots., including the litter tray routine ( lol)….Marrying my outline Guide to the “real deal”, and I believe they, like my cats themselves , were not at all daunted at the prospect of being surrogate trusted “fur parents” for a week . All 3 furs vied for attention, and Kitty, although quite nervy,, took to sitting on Mary’s lap at every available opportunity …with Mau & Toots competing for attention… and their daily groomings too!!!, when they returned from their daily sojourn , exploring the area., they had the energy to care for and be entertained by the furs! Mary’s excellent forward planning ensured that they gave time to the furs on a morning before setting off…and again on an evening , Ensuring that the cats’ routine, especially feeding times ,was not disrupted and as all parties enjoyed waking fairly early?.? (lol) Mary & Ian had time to explore and enjoy visiting several highly recommended tourist attractions, they had researched. Ian was a gem and offered to sort out finishing laying down approx 400 kilos of Wood chip and off cuts based “soil” along the side of my drive, AND remove Garden garbage to the recycle area , down the road. So the outside was very tidy & orderly, on my return . Mary watered my pot plants on the calçada , AND Enjoyed fresh lemons & picking physalis berries( Chinese gooseberries) . All my flowering plants , young tomatoes , beetroot n onions were thriving on my return. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Kitty , Mau & Toots, my garden and my home. Everywhere was clean and tidy and in good order when I returned. The cats simply adored Mary , and the regular photo updates sent to me by Mary endorsed the fact that I had not been missed!! It was truly lovely to have you stay and look after M,K,T and get to know you a little. The “5 Star” rating for every aspect of their stay reflects Mary & Ian’s commitment to be genuine “zeewoi”, and importantly ensure that Mau, Kitty & Toots…. Were safe and cared for , during my absence…….. they simply Never missed me!! We all really enjoyed your company …Thank you sooooo very much. If you are ever blown off course in your world wide adventures and land in Portugal again….please look us up!,,,…you’ll always be Welcome.
Deborah
Emslie, Buffalo
D&G Sitters
We cannot express how incredible Deb and Glen are! From the moment we met Deb and Glen, it was evident that they had a genuine love for animals and our cat immediately snuggled up next to them. During our time away, Deb and Glen went above and beyond to ensure that our cat and bird were not only well cared for but also felt loved. They provided regular updates, including adorable photos that truly put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. Deb and Glen were very respectful of our home and left everything in perfect order. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and skilled to look after their furry/feathery friends. Thank you, Deb and Glen, for your outstanding care. We will definitely be calling on you again in the future!
Macy
Emslie, Buffalo
a cat lady, through and through!
I cannot recommend Macy highly enough as a house sitter. She recently looked after my home and my cat, Oreo, and did an absolutely fantastic job. From the moment we met, Macy was professional, trustworthy, and incredibly attentive to every detail. Oreo is usually quite shy around new people, but Macy’s warm and gentle nature quickly won him over. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, so I always felt at ease knowing Oreo was in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him, going above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well-cared for while I was away. When I returned home, the house was spotless, and Oreo was relaxed and content. It was evident that Macy had taken great care of both my home and my beloved pet. Macy even left a gift and a card for me!! It’s such a relief to know that I can trust someone like Macy to take care of things when I’m not around. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible house sitter, Macy is the one to choose. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future!
Svetlana
Emslie, Buffalo
Reliable and Caring Pet Sitter from Canada
Lana and her son were really wonderful to host. They look great care of our house and pets and we were really able to enjoy our vacation knowing Lana had everything under control. Our pets seemed to have a great time with them and the house looked great and super clean when we got home. Highly recommend and would be happy to host them again.
Laurel
Emslie, Buffalo
Canadian Woman welcomes opportunity to explore new communities while enjoying th
It was an absolute pleasure having Laurel house/ pet sit. She was so kind and treated our home and kitty Marzipan as her own. She kept in touch over the stay and provided updates, and left the home clean and tidy (even washed the bedding). We would absolutely recommend Laurel and would welcome her back anytime!
Laura
Emslie, Buffalo
Pet Lover on a Mission
Despite a glitch over the start date Laura was a charming and reliable housesitter who gave Tuppence my Cockapoo a great deal of love and attention and also welcomed two Air BnB guests in my absence . I would happily use Laura again as I felt totally confident in her.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Nina
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Olivia
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
Thea
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Sunny
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Monica
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.
Inma
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Bridget
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Francine
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
Cynthia
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
