Hannah Rose and Simon were great pet sitters, they were very self sufficient and coped with various building projects that were going on during their visit, the cats were relaxed and happy when we got home and a nice clean house, we would absolutely recommend them.

Wayne was absolutely brilliant, I had a lot of updates from him over the 10 day sit and it sounds like he had a lot of fun with the cats. I had some lovely pictures and heard about their antics which was great. Wayne was very easy to communicate with and he left the house sparkling clean. I am hoping he comes back next year as I'm pretty sure the cats are missing him now we are home 😂 Ratchet especially seemed to enjoy someone to play feather with her! I would 100% recommend Wayne as a sitter for anyone else.

Bill and Teckla are a lovely couple with a varied range of interests. We had a few days together before we left to show them the ropes and had several conversations about their experiences while travelling. We realised we had made an excellent choice for our sitters. It was clear immediately that they are animal lovers and quickly made friends with Monty, Digby and Rocky. Just what we wanted! Lhasa’s are not the easiest dogs to sit for, however Bill and Teckla clearly understood what was required, particularly with Monty who is a notoriously fussy eater. During our time away we received daily reports about our pets including several pictures. Very reassuring for us. We also had an ongoing conversation about how our holiday was going and how they were enjoying the local French culture including Duras chateau and the soirée gourmand. When we returned the house was spotless, bedding washed and our ‘boys’ were obviously well cared for and loved. A credit to Bill and Teckla and worthy of a five star rating. We enjoyed our time with them both before and after our trip and would welcome them back to Marsou at any time. They a generous and kind couple who our pets adored. Thank you for your enthusiasm in sitting for us. Please keep in touch.

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.

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

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.

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.

This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. 

Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties.  
Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. 

Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. 

We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.

Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!

Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!

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

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.

Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!

If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years.

Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. 

Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly.

Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast.

Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. 

In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

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!

Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. 
The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. 
The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so.
Kristine comes with our highest recommendation!
Thank you Kristine!

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!
