Lesley
Hume, Australia
Newfoundland-owning, non-smoking, real estate professional
Lesley was fantastic and looked after our house and pets perfectly. The house was immaculate on our return and the dogs both really happy - they'd obviously had a great time and were very happy around her. We would highly recommend!
Christine
Hume, Australia
Energetic and highly reliable reliable couple
It was a pleasure having John and Chris stay and look after Archie, Ace and my home. I would definitely recommend them and hope that we meet again someday soon.
David
Hume, Australia
David & Claire
David and Claire were super organised and we had a Zoom call with them to talk about the sit before we both agreed that we were a good match. This was quite a few months before the house sit. We thoroughly recommend this couple as sitters as they were meticulous about arrangements and cleaning. We would gladly have them return to look after our cat. David and Claire instruct pilates classes and we had no problem with them doing some online classes from our place as we have a separate high speed guest internet. we wish them well for their future house sits.
Raeline
Hume, Australia
Quiet retired couple, enjoying the world at a relaxed pace.
I loved having Raeline & Terry pet sit for us. Both were friendly and great to communicate with. We received updates and photos of our pets weekly. If their were any concerns they would contact me immediately. It was a pleasure to come home to a clean tidy home and contented pets. We would recommend Raeline & Terry to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter. Thank you so much to both of you!!
Alana
Hume, Australia
We will love and spoil your Fur Babies as much as you do!
I don't even know where to start. Alana and Jason were simply amazing during a house sit that, well, could have gone better (on my part!). This was my first time choosing sitters that had to travel from overseas, and I was a bit reluctant at first, but the fact that they had previous experience with greyhounds, plus a very reassuring video call made me decide that they were worth it. And boy was I right! They were great at communicating beforehand and letting me know when they had arrived in NZ and what they were up to on their trip while they made their way towards Wellington. Met them in person the morning I was leaving and I left feeling pretty confident that the girls were in good hands. But then a week into my trip I had a sudden change of plans and had to return home a week early. They were super understanding and flexible and I was happy for them to stay. But then the day after returning I tested positive for covid so that threw another spanner in the works. I offered to isolate in my room so they could stay, and in exchange they took care of the girls and even cooked for me! They honestly were incredibly helpful and super nice to be around. Very quiet, respectful and took great care of the girls, plus they cleaned after themselves and even weeded the garden! Absolute legends in a not so straightforward sit. I would ask them to sit again in a heartbeat!
Ashley
Hume, Australia
Experienced, reliable, caring and active couple.
Beck and Ashley looked after our dog for the second time and did a wonderful job . Our dog looks very healthy and happy . Beck sent me a few photos while we were away which is always reassuring and our house was very tidy on our return . It was a pleasure to have Beck and family as housesitters
Robert
Hume, Australia
Trusted and reliable couple available to care for your home and fur babies.
Robert and Toni his partner are very honourable people who due to circumstances beyond their control had to depart early. They would never have done this on a whim and did everything they could to ensure a smooth transition. We have used them before and would do so again in an instant… we are glad we had premium insurance as life happens beyond our control sometimes. 10 out of 10 for these sitters for cleanliness and integrity Joni our dog adores them.
Marie
Hume, Australia
Respectful, Responsible, Retired country at heart couple.
Our Housesitters, Marie & Anthony, were THE best sitters we have had over 10 years of using this service They were responsible, reliable, honest, kind, caring and nothing was a problem for them. We had lots of contact initially, which made the “job” very easy to navigate for both parties. At the outset, M&T were quick to adjust to our routine and settled in smoothly, so our pets bonded quickly, which put us at ease. Lots of contact but not too much - we received all the necessary news while away and got updates on the pets, which suited us perfectly. M&T also worked really well with our support people, so everything was taken care of, they even helped my elderly mother when her pet passed suddenly.. We felt much more comfortable being away than we expected to, which is why we have nothing but praise and gratitude for Marie and Anthony. We'd have them back in a heartbeat!
Allan
Hume, Australia
Looking forward to taking care of your house and pets, as if they were our own.
Fantastic couple! They are so kind and respectful. Seasoned petsitters. Our pets were very well cared for as well as our house. They went above and beyond with leaving the house clean and tidy. Very self sufficient. We would live to have them again.
Erin
Hume, Australia
Responsible, Respectable, Clean
I've come to trust Erin to look after my home and my pet like I do. She is a great communicator, is happy to put up with the idiosyncrasies of Monty the cat, and leaves my home like I left it.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Elizabeth
Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!
sandi
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Jenner
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
katie
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
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.
Matthew and Cheryl
Amber is as good a sitter as you will find anywhere! She treated our cats with such love and care, as if they were her own. She left our house in perfect tiptop tidy shape, and made sure to wash all the towels and linens before she left. She even cleaned out our coffee maker and took up our weekly trash without us even mentioning it! Amber is super kind and personable and we welcome her back to sit for us anytime! If you are looking for a sitter, you should definitely accept her application!

Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Donna
Summer was a very top-quality pet sitter and house sitter. She not only took excellent care of all four pets (three cats and a dog) but even achieved a very close bond with one of the cats. She went over and above the call of duty with our dog, who developed a serious skin condition while we were gone. We're so grateful that Summer was able to identify there was a problem, took the dog to the vet several times, and ended up having to apply topical medication and give pills and even keep the dog dressed in a t-shirt, which she did flawlessly. She communicated with us frequently, sending photos and updates, and the house was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we had left. She did an amazing job, knew how to handle any situation, always had a very upbeat and positive attitude, and we really enjoyed getting to know her right before we left and right after we returned. We would very very highly recommend Summer in all respects!
Kathleen
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Stacey
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
