Julia
Rideau Ferry, Canada
50+ IT professionals: dogs, cats any other small pets and poultry
Julia and Andrei were wonderful! They were here with our St. Bernard and our cat for two weeks while we were abroad. The communication with them leading up to their stay was very clear and appreciated. They sent daily updates and photos of our pets enjoying their company. We came back to a spotless house and some goodies in the fridge. It was great being able to go on a family trip with peace of mind, knowing our pets and house were being cared for by such reliable sitters. We will definitely call on them next time we go on a trip.
Josephine
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Mature Clean Conscientious Canadian Couple with house sitting experience
Josephine and Jason were amazing. Totally self sufficient and they seem to impart a joy to everything they do. Olive was a happy camper, they taught her to swim and to do a high five. The house looked great on our return and all our plants survived through incredible heat. We would love to have them back! Thank you both for your great care!
Maryse
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Happy pets, no regrets!
We were lucky enough to have Maryse come back to look after our home and pets for a second time. When she cared for our 2 cats a couple of years ago, we could not believe how we had lucked out and have been begging her to come back ever since! We have kept in touch and to our delight, she finally announced she was coming back to NB! This time around, we added our 1.5 year old pup Enzo to the mix and he took to Maryse instantly. It is evident that Maryse has a lot of experience with dogs. She jogged with him every day and even taught him to run along her bicycle with a leash! She sent hilarious daily updates and pictures, which of course we loved. When we returned the house was spotless (cleaner than when we left!) and the lawn and flowers looked like a professional landscaper had been here. 5 stars is not nearly enough. We left with complete peace of mind knowing our furry babies were in excellent hands; what more could we ask for? Merci encore une fois Maryse, on se croise les doigts que ce ne sera pas la dernière fois! Enzo, Choupie et Rouki s’ennuient déjà!
Jude
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Retired prof. couple who have been pet owners for 35+ yrs & like to travel.
Jude and Wendy were a pleasure to have sitting at my house and taking care of my Kacey. He was very good at communicating before and during the sit. He would send daily photos and updates of their time with Kacey. They gave Kacey the best vacation while I enjoyed my vacation. They left my house in excellent condition, cleaning it before I returned home. I felt very comfortable being out of the country knowing they were taking good care of Kacey and I hope they can watch her again during my future trips.
Helen
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Canadian caregiver for your pets and home. TLC
Helen was a great sitter! She came on short notice and because we got rained out of our camping trip, offered that we could come home early (which we really appreciate!) It was her first time doing subcutaneous injections for our cat Kevin’s insulin, and she was meticulous about making sure she did it right. She called to make sure we got home and offered to come back if we got stuck. Helen was very accommodating, clean and attentive and I would have her again in a second!
Steve
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Mature couple who love pets and will respect and care for your home.
Steve & Sue were a lovely well travelled couple with a host of interesting stories. They took to the dogs immediately & we knew there would be no problems with the house sit. We were kept updated with pictures & returned to a clean house & happy dogs. Additionally they had watered the plants & cut the grass & had a meal for us coming home. We would thoroughly recommend Steve & Sue as reliable Zeewoi.
Aaron
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Responsible, dedicated working professional to take care of your pets and home
An opportunity arose for a once in a lifetime trip, so it was a great relief that Aaron was available to house sit during those two weeks. We have had Aaron sit for us many times now and that fact alone says how much we trust him and how well he has taken care of our house and our pets. Both of the last two sits have had some issues that Aaron has gone out of his way to solve plus I was delayed a day returning to Ottawa and Aaron assured me, from the beginning of my epic trek home, that he would stay that extra day if needed. He has communicated issues extremely well and uses common sense in his initiative to solve any problems. Aaron had both of our cats this time (One travels with my wife when she is working in the U. S.), and it is obvious that they are extremely comfortable around him. I think they get more cuddle time with him than they do with me. Honestly, Aaron has been the perfect sitter for us and I am sure you will say the same if he sits for you.
Munira
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Mature reliable mum and responsible son
Munira and her son, Mohammed, are dream housesitters. Munira was great about sending updates about my sweet elderly little cat. My cat hurt her paw jumping down from something and Munira informed me immediately, sent videos, and monitored her recovery. Munira even brought her food and water up to the room where she was staying when she noticed that my cat hadn't been down to eat. And you couldn't even tell that she and Mohammed had stayed in my house. Everything was as I left it - clean, tidy, and everything in its place. She and Mohammed were a delight and I would have them back again in a heartbeat. I cannot recommend them enough.
Mary
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Retired professional looking forward to meeting and caring for 4 legged friends
Mary is a fantastic Zeewoi. Great communicator, looked after our cat and garden like they were her own. Always like having Mary stay chez nous.
Oona
Rideau Ferry, Canada
Teleworking speechwriter with the government who loves animals!
Oona took care of our home and cat Zeus for 2 weeks and had such peace of mind knowing she was there! She sent lots of updates and pictures, communicated very clearly, left the house spotless and Zeus seems absolutely content. We would have her sit for us again in a heartbeat!
Reviews from Cat Owners
Rachael
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Jenny
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Meghan
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!
Jessica
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and 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!
Laney
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
Carrie
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Will
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Steven
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!
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.
