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.

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!

We had Denise house sit for a weekend and look after our cat, Simba, and she did an amazing job! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and it gave us peace of mind knowing she was taking such great care of our home and Simba. Simba usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but they hit it off right away. Denise's attention to Simba, especially when she first came over to meet us and Simba, made all the difference and gave us that extra peace of mind. Highly recommend Denise for anyone looking for a reliable and caring house sitter!"

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!

House and Dog Sitting Review for Jason We had the pleasure of having Jason house and dog sit for us from the 20th of June until the 7th of July. As we are away for some time, Jason did the first sitting for Beau and our second sitter took over directly from him. Our next sitter said we should be satisfied with his services as Jason took good care of our home, and our dog, Beau. Beau seemed happy and well-cared for and she said he clearly seemed to have enjoyed his time with Jason. One aspect that impressed us was Jason's dedication to ensuring a smooth transition. He waited until the next house sitter arrived, demonstrating his commitment and reliability.

Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back

Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year!

From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator.  While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text.  It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have.  

Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house.  Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease.  Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start).  

While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW).  Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible.

Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve!  

When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was!  Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly.  Seriously, our house felt like we never left it.  Everything was spotless, shinny and clean.  She didn’t miss a beat!!  Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!).  Haha.  

If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough.  Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise.  She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. 

The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!

Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!

Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!

Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by  text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed.  She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
