Alison was fantastic from start to finish. She communicated well throughout the sit and gave Archie lots of attention and care. He was a very happy little dog and we felt completely secure knowing Alison was looking after him and the house. Hope to have her back for future sits ad she really did make the whole process enjoyable.

Suzanne & Roger are amazing! It was my very first experience with zeewoi and house sitting, and I am very glad that they accepted to come and look after my girl and my house for 4 weeks. They are reliable, very easy to communicate with, extremely organized, super friendly, and the list goes on and on....... I was a little bit anxious about leaving my fur baby and my home with "strangers", but they both made me feel confident from our first call until the end of my journey overseas. My dog was sad when they left, it says a lot..! I'm very thankful to Roger & Suzanne, and I recommend 1000%. Thank you Suzanne and Roger <3

Theresa and Paul were incredible pet sitters. From the moment I met them at the front door they put me at ease and more importantly they fussed over Buddy and put him at ease immediately. Buddy is a Miniature Foxy and not been left without Mum or Dad, so this was a very nervous time for us, thus the 4 day sitting to see how everyone coped. Theresa sent us photos of a very relax and happy Buddy, so we have opened the door for more trips in the future. Our home was well looked after, clean and tidy and all as it should be. We have gained some lovely friends. My only regret was they took away home with them more than they brought. I gave them Covid. I apologise for that. Thanks again for everything. Regards Bev and Graham, Gold Coast Australia.

It was a pleasure having Neil and Rose to Housesit for us. They are a very charming couple who really enjoyed being at the house and looking after the dogs - who clearly had enjoyed being cared for by them. They were very self sufficient and visited the local area too, whilst ensuring the animals were taken care of first. The house was very neat and tidy on our return and, best of all, they had prepared dinner for us to return to! I would not hesitate to recommend them for anyone looking for a house sitter. 😀

I cannot praise Sheila and Matt enough. They looked after my two dogs and house as if they were their own and I returned to very contented dogs and a spotless house. It was my first experience of usiing zeewoi and it certainly will not be my last after this experience. I am just sorry that Sheila and Matt are too far away to house sit more often.

I can’t rate Carol and Mark highly enough! I was a bit anxious about being a first time zeewoi and leaving our house and fur babies but Carol put my mind at ease… it really was all good! They sent regular updates and photos of how their week was going, it was so lovely to see the dogs so happy. We came home to a beautifully clean and tidy home. The dogs clearly missed Carol and Mark but are settling into having Mum and Dad home again lol! Carol made muffins and left some in the freezer, and even bought milk for our return. We would be delighted for them to sit any time. Liz and Kev

Cheryl and Ian communicated very well before and during the sit. Arrival time was to the minute, questions were asked and answered. During the sit there was a storm in the area and Cheryl was thoughtful to message me that there was no damage at my place, thank u for that Cheryl. I came home to a very clean house, laundry was dry so I just had to make the bed. I had to select excellent for pet care because the option of n/a wasn't available, there were no pets this time ( they were at a friend's house). Cheryl and Ian are welcome to come back anytime.

Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!

Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!

. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.

We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.

Kira was the best sitter we have ever had!  I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us.
I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately.  I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for.  Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. 
Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! 
Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.

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.

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.

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!

Florence was a great sitter for my cat Lily. I booked her a bit last minute, as a previous sitter had to cancel, but was very happy to have her. She was reliable, prompt to respond, and sent picture updates daily at my request. Judging by the pics, Lily warmed up to her nicely and they spent some lounging time together - which is high praise from a cat! Would recommend Florence for your next sit.

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!
