Pet lover seeking house- sit
It was a pleasure to have Anne housesit our dog Finn. She clearly loves dogs and he seemed very happy. Communicating with Anne was prompt and easy and, having done housesits before, she was v organised too. What’s more, it was a delight to come home to a v tidy house!

Friend of animals & plants ❤
I knew I wanted Florence and her family to sit for us the moment we spoke! The dogs had a great time and did some long walks around Skipton and had plenty of cuddles on the sofa. We were sent photos which is always lovely to see. Liaising with Florence was easy and straightforward from start to finish. Sadly we didn’t get to meet due to timings but I trusted her enough to leave a key and instructions and we were on hand via WhatsApp. I would happily have Florence and her family sit for us again.

Quiet, reliable animal loving person who enjoys house/pet-sitting.
Issy did a great job looking after our house and the Guinea Pigs. The house was immaculate when we returned. Unfortunately our beloved dog Karla passed away just days before Issy came but Issy still committed to the sit and all was good. Thanks Issy!

Living in Scotland but love travelling too!
Jo and her mum stayed for a long weekend and did a fantastic job. Even left a lovely bunch of flowers for our return. Easy to contact and the animals were perfectly looked after. Would definitely recommend ❤️

An experienced dog owner and cat sitter who enjoys the outdoors.
Alice was amazing and we're so grateful to her for taking such great care of our cat Floyd and our flat while we were away for three weeks. She sent us regular photos and updates about Floyd - it was so comforting to know she was in such great hands. Our flat was in immaculate condition when we got home. I can't recommend Alice enough!

Practical, warm, responsible person with lots of pet experience
Judy was amazing. This experience has taken the stress away from going on holiday and leaving our precious pet behind. From the moment she arrived, Paddy ( our labradoodle) relaxed. When we returned, after his usual frenzied greeting to us- he returned to the sofa and cuddled up with Judy! I think that says it all!!! The house was immaculate. The arrangement was relaxed and supportive. I really hope she feels able to come back again in the future

Outdoors and pets loving librarian and fire chief look after your home and pets
We were very pleased with Alda and David- the cats settled very well . David did some jobs around the property which was extremely kind - clearing the gutters and cleaning the hot tub . Thank you for taking such good care of our pussies and for giving Willow her medication

Lots of love for fur babies
Bozena & Vanessa were able to come to do an introduction visit prior to our holiday. I was apprehensive being that Bruno is a rescue with some issues but both appeared well able to deal with this (& asked questions). I had mixed up start dates which Bozena dealt with admirably. She kept in touch while we were away with videos & messages which was a lovely touch. The house was immaculate when we arrived back home. Bruno was well cared for & was obviously catered for with lots of loves & walks. Can thoroughly recommend these sitters.

Reliable and experienced traveller and home/pet sitter.
Martine was an excellent sitter. Huey was well cared for and was relaxed and happy when we got home. Martine was very communicative and kept me up to date with how Huey was, sending photos and videos of what he was up to. He is an old boy that requires a lot of care, and she looked after his needs re. short walks and daily tablets. The house was immaculate when we returned home, which is a relief when you get home late in the evening. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask Martine to look after Huey again.
Eliza was my first sitter after signing up on zeewoi. I’m Soooo happy to have had her in my home watching over my dogs. They were very well taken care of and she did everything I asked her to do with the dogs meals and medication. Plus she took excellent care of my home and plants. If you are lucky enough to get Eliza to stay at your home, you will be so glad it was she who took care of things! Very happy 😃
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
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.
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
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.
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Susan and Jim were amazing sitters for my 2 boys whilst I went to Portugal to play golf. Communication we had prior to the sit was excellent, and we were able to discuss the dogs in detail. They arrived the day before I was due to leave so we were able to have a good handover. They really looked after the dogs well, and my house was immaculate when I returned. I can't recommend them highly enough, just wished they lived in the UK so I could use them on a regular basis. Thank you Susan and Jim xx
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
To this list of attributes I would add flexible, capable, sensitive, extremely good with the dogs even if one of mine is sometimes a little ornery, and just a wonderful person all around. Because of constantly changing circumstances due to a move and coronavirus, my dogs ended up spending not two weeks but a whole month with John and they were so comfortable and happy. John helped them in so many ways and coordinated shipping them overseas, he went above and beyond the wildest stretches of what a house sitter entails and did it with a smile and a laugh and reassurances that all would be well. And indeed he was absolutely right - the dogs arrived so well cared for that all my fears of them being traumatized went out the window. John’s flexibility, and his kindness as well as his impeccable maintenance of my house in my absence all make me recommend him an absolute 10 out of 10. Thank you John for all your help this summer!!
