This was Barbara's second time sitting with our cats. Just like the previous time, she was excellent with her communication and daily updates with photos. Both Figaro and Blackie love her.

Cat & Donkey Loving Kiwi ♥️
Kelly has been the most wonderful carer for Peaches and Dippy! We couldn't have asked for a more reliable, attentive and friendly person to stay and bond with our kitties. She spoiled them with brushing, cuddles and even vacuuming Peaches (which he loves) and her communication with us was wonderful before and during the sit; sending videos, photos and frequent updates about the cats. Our house was sparkling when we returned and she even left thank you treats! Thank YOU, Kelly! We hope you will return. Peaches and Dippy miss you already. 💕

Ayelet's communication was fantastic right through from applying for our house sit, to arrival, and the whole period we were away. She sent us updates and photos of what her and Bear were doing daily, and our dog, Bear absolutely loved her. She took fantastic care of our dog, and home, and we wouldn't hesitate to whole heartedly recommend her. Ayelet is a lovely warm person, and we are really happy to have met her.

We're a chilean marriage, love pets and travels
Ana and Álvaro are very reliable sitters and lovely people. We felt we could trust them immediately, our cat loved them and was pampered like he’s used to from us. We had a peaceful vacation knowing they were taking good care of him. They regularly supplied little updates and pictures and communication was very pleasant. They took optimal care of our yard with vegetable beds and greenhouse and left the house clean and tidy. Ana and Álvaro are 100% reliable and very attentive housesitters—we’d love to have them back at any time!

Reviews from Cat Owners
Ellie
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
Steven
Our review is written by Steven (house owner, host + my father) + also by Kim (the daughter). Written by Kim: This was our first house sit since the passing of my mother in late Dec 2023. I was helping my father Steven (whose profile it is) manage all the emails + try + find a great house sitter + came along Gretchen’s profile! Not only is she a cool cat + someone you might want to get to know, I found myself quickly talking to her. I shortly found out her profile is just a glimpse of how interesting she is but talking to her was so much better! She is a world traveler with many experiences + stories to share. We quickly became conversationalists who could talk forever + probably will continue to do so! Thank you TH! She is easy to communicate with + continued the consistent communication all along our journey of having her as our *first* guest after my mom’s passing. It was clearly a time filled with anxiety + sensitivity so there were some sensitive topics to go over + Gretchen got it right away. A few of our rooms in the house were off-limits (as they housed my mom’s things) but we reassured her the house has ample space for her to enjoy + there are many lovely outdoor spaces to boot! When she arrived she felt she was in paradise + really relished in the outdoor beauty + the indoor coziness. We were happy to share it with someone who appreciated it so much! She also was very understanding with the fact that both my dad + I would both be involved as we both handled different parts of the stay. Me, writing + setting up the Welcome Guide + would go over the situation but then upon her arrival my dad would take over + answer any questions mostly during her sit. The good part of having 2 people is she had accessibility to us both, in the case she needed it + sometimes it came up! She juggled all the communication oh so well. My mom usually handled most of the logistics so this being our first time we were nervous something would come up we might not know but it didn’t! It was new territory for us + we wanted to make sure she had everything. Gretchen handled it all with such ease, seamlessly, really respecting our wishes/desires + taking all the information into her hands + making it seem easy on her end to do so. She was easy to coordinate schedules with! There was a gap in her 1st + 2nd sit but everything went seamlessly even when my flight had a day long delay. She was able to coordinate schedules with me arriving in between, then leaving, my dad arriving different days + us extending the trip too. It all worked out! We were all a good team! She absolutely loved our older cat, Benny + he fast + furiously fell in love with her oh so easily. When I saw him, he looked oh so loved + after saying hi to me went over to ‘her’ bed + slept there waiting for her to come back. She sent many pictures, videos + even cute creations + toys she made for our Benny + it was obvious the house + our Benny were her first priority. She even asked us if she could help prune our flowers/shrubs, something my mom used to do + honestly it was an honor to hear her ask that. She was welcome to set up her art studio + play away. She was very communicative when our house cleaner, landscape gardener + house manager showered up for different reasons. When I arrived back for a short stint before she came back the 2nd time our mail was so well organized it was an assembly line! She also offered to take down our xmas tree (as we were a bit behind in taking down our xmas decorations) + she was sensitive to the fact that we were adjusting to a new normal. Thank you so much Gretchen! You made our first sit in a long time so seamless + such a relief that we are ready now to host again. We only wish we could have more Gretchen’s! (She’s also a super talented artist!) Written by Steven: Overall, Gretchen has been an absolute treasure. She has fulfilled our goals for a house sitter perfectly - she took good care of the house, great care of our treasured pet, Mr. Benny + took care of the grounds such as watering a few plants + trees. She excelled in all the above + is welcome back anytime I will be out of town in the future.
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Sean
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.
Diane
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Alison
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
Katie
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
Julie
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
Deb
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!

The Pet Sitter in Florence
Recent Reviews:
Silvia is wonderful and kind - she takes the dogs on plenty of of walks and is very knowledgable about animals. Our dog loves Silvia and is ecstatic to stay with her. So much so that she even barks when we randomly walk by her house! I'm happy to highly recommend The Pet Sitter in Florence to trust with your pets.
We visited Florence for a few days, and Silvia was very responsive and accommodating. We needed a dog sitter for a few hours, and she was able to help us out. She was great with our dog, and he was pleased with her. Silvia also shared plenty of photos and videos while caring for our dog.
I had a wonderful experience with Sylvia. She came 3 times a day for a month to walk Mia while I was recovering from a fracture. She made my recovery a little less stressful.
She was puntual to pick up and drop off. Also, she sent pictures and videos of our dog. That was very reassurance.
Silvia is very attentive and precise. Full of concern and scrupulous. We entrusted our kittens to her while we were on holiday and she was really great. He respected their nature without forcing them, he left all the spaces clean, he followed all the instructions regarding food and the management of the house with great responsibility. I absolutely feel like recommending her because we felt very comfortable with her.
I met Silvia through word of mouth from friends, a kind and professional person, prepared and attentive to her work. Despite the initial contact difficulties, due to my work, travel and constant meetings, she made herself available via message or telephone and always looked for a meeting point. Before making an appointment in person and having talked at length about the dog and my various needs, he correctly sent me a price list, confirming the honesty and that the price is not made at the moment. The first impression, at our meeting, was positive, competent and attentive, he asked for confirmation of the information previously acquired, trying to evaluate what I said in the field. He asked me a series of questions to understand the dog's character, its characteristics and its critical issues. Having entrusted the dog, upon his return, I found a positive and relaxed attitude, something that had not previously happened with any other dog sitter. The other dog sitter, a person found in an emergency, an animal lover and at a very low cost, was more of an expense than a saving: he passed himself off as a dog sitter only to make money, he had no qualifications and experience as was found with Silvia and Above all, after a few days of foster care, I noticed that the dog had resumed some vices, which he had now overcome and was always agitated. In summary, before entrusting your animal, make sure who you give it to, check their qualifications and experience because the lowest price does not necessarily mean savings.
Extremely unfair person, Mrs. Silvia was supposed to come these days to meet my dog, she called me two days ago but my phone was busy, well since then she hasn't had five minutes to call me back and my messages were not relevant to what I was looking for and the beauty it's because she even sent me the price list but whoever wants to take the piss I wrote to her that I would call her back the next day to clarify and what did she do instead? He blocked me anyway no problem I just wanted to let you know that there are people and in any case I have already found another person, be careful who you turn to because not all people seem like what they are a more than negative experience
Silvia is a point of reference for us when we have to leave our cats or our dog! Always on time with photos and videos and always very helpful. Absolutely 5 stars for us!
did you remove my negative review about you? How come? Were you afraid that others would read it? it seems right to me that others read it otherwise don't write reviews if you only leave positive ones I just said that you are an unfair person and that you didn't have five minutes to call me back and fix it and in any case I didn't pester you with irrelevant messages, on the contrary my messages were more than relevant, you were the one who was more how rude to me send me the price list and then me are you taking the piss? and no, I'm not a person who takes the piss, I'm sorry but it doesn't work like that for me and it's good that you know it
5 stars deserved, very attentive to the instructions given, we had a great time. Our cats have stress problems resulting from our prolonged absence and the presence of strangers, but this time they didn't have any problems, it's the first time we were able to afford a 10-day holiday. Top

What a wonderful doggy daycare!!! My guy was all smiles in the pictures sent while he spent a few hours here! It is located in the best spot so you can drop off, hit the museums, and pick up! I can’t recommend this place enough for your fur babies! They are so sweet to all the guests and provide a home away from home 😊 …
My dog Buddy had an excellent experience here! They gave him so much love, and he had so much fun with the other dogs! They also sent me lots of pictures of my dog having fun and being loved, which helped me enjoy my trip more. I highly recommend them!
Our dog stayed today at this place, he seemed like he enjoyed it, they even took him for a walk, really great and nice team ! With this dog daycare we could visit museums and all activities in Florence! I recommend! Thanks 👍 (sent pictures to me all day, very pleasant!! (And reassuring)) . …
We were visiting Florence with our two dogs and needed a safe place for our dogs to stay while we visited museums. Tuscan Hounds was the perfect solution! They have two convenient locations within the historic district, took in our dogs on short notice, and treated them great! We had never boarded our 11 month old girls before but Tuscan Hounds kept us updated on their antics which made us more comfortable. They even sent pictures and a card about their first stay in daycare! Thank you so much for making our stay in Florence more enjoyable!
TuscanHound helped me so much as I was traveling alone and needed someone to take care of my Beagle girl to visit a museum in Florence. They even adjusted the drop-off time according to the time slot that was available at the Uffizi. The dog care is situated perfectly as it is in direct reach of the museums. My dog enjoyed a really nice stay, was being walked through a calm area (as she was scared of the hustle and bustle of Florence) and I even received some photos of her stay. Thank you so much, I would totally recommend you to all dog owners.
The TuscanHound is the only place you should board your pets when staying in Florence! The team took such amazing care of our dog Vino, I’m pretty sure vino had a better vacation than we did because of the TuscanHound team! She stayed with Yuli who definitely treated vino like her own. We received so many photos and knew vino was in amazing hands, which eased any worries. Thank you TuscanHound team! We’ll have to come back to Florence just so vino can come back to daycare ☺️
TuscanHound provided a wonderful service for our dog. It was the first time we ever left him with someone. He stayed overnight and TuscanHound « pupgraded » him to the Château service for no extra charge so he could be especially well looked after. They sent regular photos and videos showing him playing in the garden on a water mat and going for a hilltop walk, then relaxing on a big bed. After a long day travelling in our car, it was a lovely break for him !!
We were visiting Florence with our dog and needed a place for him to stay while we are visiting museums. I cant be grateful enough for all the good care that Tuscan Hounds team provided for our dog. He was taken for a walks, met other dogs and was very happy. Apart from having convenient location and taking a good care they also send you an updates about the dog stay and photos. So we as an owners feel calm and secure.
We moved from Florence to the UK and TuscanHound transported our dog Archie by car. We can only recommend their outstanding service. They handled everything from vet visits prior to the travel, through documentation and planning. They made sure that the relocation is as stress-less as possible for Archie, and he actually seemed to enjoy the trip. They made regular stops with 2 overnight stays, many walks and kept him calm and engaged while updating us regularly. Before our relocation we also used their daycare services for several months, and Archie always had a great time. We would like to thank the entire TuscanHound team for their support and professional service!
We are over all thankfull for the perfect caring of our Aussi Beetlejuice. The staff is so lovely and we got pictures during the daycare. He also got an AirTag so we felt absolutely safe. If you are ever in Florenz bring them your Dog. It couldn’t be any better! Thank you so much for everything!

They took good care of my dog, they sent me photo updates which I really appreciated as I was nervous about leaving him.
It was the first time we left our Maltese breed King dog (particularly attached to us) to unknown people and we were delighted! We received constant update messages and photos throughout our stay at the property, we were very very satisfied. Highly recommended!

we discovered this wonderful dog shelter when we went to Florence from Genoa for a hospital visit and, not being able to bring our furry little girl with us🐶, we contacted the owner of the facility who was immediately available and very kind, sending me photos and news to reassure me, which I appreciated it very much. For the next check-ups in Florence I can finally take Daisy with me because I feel comfortable leaving her in their hands.. Thank you so much ❤️ Erika and Daisy🐶
I had to leave Attila my Jack Russel for the afternoon and the night with them. And we had a great time Attila was calm and they are fantastic they kept me updated with messages and photos they were very kind and available for all my requests. I highly recommend it, excellent service and a lot of passion. The shop is also well stocked with quality products. 5 stars because you can't give more
Fantastic Kindergarten! fantastic staff, kind and professional! Our Fanny felt very comfortable and calm. Super highly recommended. we managed to visit Florence with a light heart. Thank you!
We left Pluto and Minnie yesterday. It was the first time I entrusted them to someone, I was so anxious and scared but the owner was magnificent, she updated us several times during the day with photos and messages and my puppies were fine. I recommend this kindergarten 100% Thanks Woof
Ezio and Donatella are fantastic. They looked after Nutella like a princess. Highly recommended. When work is done out of passion it shows. They love our fur babies just as much as we do. Thanks for existing. Nutella and her mother Simona love you.
Here you can breathe love and passion. Inside we can find everything, from clothing to food. The owners are very friendly people always available. The dogs have plenty of space to play.
We left our little dog 🐶 today, so we could visit the museums in Florence. Excellent service, Mrs. Donatella was very kind both by phone when booking and today having met her in person. Thanks again so much! Our little dog had a lovely day, together with other little dogs and we were updated with photos during the day. I recommend without hesitation.
On holiday in Florence, not being able to visit museums with our dog, we decided to entrust Rita to Donatella and Ezio. Marvelous ! They are very knowledgeable and gave so much love to our dog. Another big thank you to them for these two days. Paul, Lucia and Rita 🐶 …
I found their number on Google, I needed a last minute dog sitter, to be able to visit the museums of Florence with peace of mind and without leaving my puppy alone! I thank the owners for their immediate availability and for their passion for animals... I would choose them a thousand times over. Thank you especially for the way you pampered our puppy Denver ❤️
Excellent solution for visiting Florence and its museums and leaving your dog in caring and competent hands. Mini enjoyed some rest away from the infernal heat of the past few days, pampered by the owners and staff who kept us updated on her status with photos and messages. The facility also offers the possibility of collection and delivery to agreed locations within the city. For our convenience, it was brought to the station area at the end of the day.
