Lorraine, and her husband Adain, were the most perfect housesitters. Apart from being truly lovely folk, they took the greatest care of my 5 cats, treated my home with the same regard as I do, and made a delicious supper for us on our return. I've asked for the recipes! We will most definitely be inviting them back, and are currently looking at our 2025 holiday dates to accommodate them. It's a 5star+++ for this wonderful couple.

Caroline looked after our house, pool and plants for 3 weeks (we took our dog with us). She is very easy to get along with, reliable and straightforward. No issues at all, would definitely have her back.

Jocelyn was a blessing ! and is one of the most wonderful human beings I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She was so friendly and open, competent, friendly, respectful, clean and tidy. She kept in touch, and sent regular updates and pictures. Her demeanour was so calm and confident, our pony and cats took to her straight away, and were treated with affection and kindness and I’m sure will miss her now !We wish her well in her future adventures and would not hesitate to recommend her and hopefully she will return to Ireland next year!

Jim and Daria recently stayed in our house to look after our dog and cat for 10 days and I can't recommend them enough. From the moment I met them I felt like I could have trusted them with anything! We came back to a neat and tidy house and happy animals and it was a perfect first experience for us of having housesitters. I wish they did it professionally and I could have them to stay again! Thanks to you both :)

Laura looked after Ritchie for 2.5 weeks in our home in Dingle. She’s an absolute gem - caring, thoughtful, professional and very well prepared. She combined working from home with taking Ritchie out on a few adventures around the Dingle Peninsula which he loved, on top of his everyday walks. At all times we felt secure and updated & her regular photos were lovely to have as we miss him when we travel. We had a significant plumbing issue whilst we were away and Laura dealt with it patiently and constructively and never complained. We can’t wait to have her back. ❤️❤️

Biden sat for us for the second time and was great. We heard from her everyday, cats were so happy and taken care of and the place was clean when we got back. She was flexible with our dates and sent lovely pictures of the boys. We hope she comes back to visit. Thanks so much, Aideen!

It was great to have Frank available to pet and house sit here again as the dogs and cat are so comfortable around him now. Dogs, cat and hens were all happy when I got home and everything neat in the house. I recommend Frank to anyone as a reassuring and kind pet sitter.

Marco did the second half of a split pet sit for me and Lily. We were able to meet on a couple of occasions before the sit and he met the first sitter also. This was really helpful and I hope helped make a good transition for sitters and Lily. He is a lovely guy and I would recommend him and lily would live to have him sit here again!

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!

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.

Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left !  She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!

Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right.

But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! 

My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!

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.

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!

If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their 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 them through the instructions would work as planned.

Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were 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 Macie and Roman followed those exactly.

Third, Macie and Roman make 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 of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out
first - replying within 30 minutes. I really
appreciated that.

Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. 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. Macie and Roman
also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. 

In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.

We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.

Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. 

When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
