Edel was a dream sitter. She was incredibly reliable and communicated with me throughout her stay. Our dog, Teddy, instantly loved her. They went on regular walks together, he was kept entertained and I got some fab photos of their time together. I came home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup! I highly recommend Edel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!!

Wilhelmina was looking after our two cats over two weeks and was super reliable and appreciated by our cats. Luckily, we had the chance to meet her before the sit and could show her around. She cleaned after her sit so it was nice to come back. We can highly recommend her, everything was really smooth.

Eimear&Ronan were great sitters! 🤩 Everything went smooth from the first message and get-to-know videocall to the moment I came back home 🙂 They took great care of Bubbles and my home and sent me a daily update/pictures as agreed which allowed me to have peace of mind, disconnect and enjoy my holidays! They greeted me back home and I found a very chilled cat (she barely acknowledged I was back😅) and a clean and tidy place. They also left me a nice little present😻 I can totally recommend them and I d welcome them back home anytime! Thank you so much!

Mike and Enya were amazing house and pet sitters. This his is in adddition to them being a wonderful and thoughtful couple. They kept in regular contact with daily messages of their adventures with Toby. We returned to a happy dog and a spotless house. They even received the seal of approval  from our town with many of our neighbors complimenting us on our friends. We hope they can sit for us again

Anne took such excellent care of our dogs and the house while we were away! It was so easy to organise all of the details and she was so accommodating. It was a long stay and everything went smoothly, the dogs were very happy to be home and looked after so well. We are grateful for the extra care she took with details like watering the plants on some especially hot days - she treated our home like her own. We had no worries or concerns, she really put our minds at ease.

Megan and Derek were excellent house/ pet sitters. They took our two dogs in their car to go on lovely long walks and administered medication to my older dog. My dogs were obviously well taken care of as on my return they were relaxed. The house was left spotless and they even put on laundry for linens they'd used. Megan sent photos and videos of the dogs on their walks and they took on their role of pet sitting with professionalism. I certainly would recommend Megan and Derek.

Katrien and Tony came the day before we left so we had plenty of time to go through all the ins and outs. It was clear from the start that they would have no problems with Bodhi, our dog, and our four cats. They kept us updated and sent pictures so we knew Bodhi and the cats were in good hands. They left the house super tidy. And they're great fun as well! Highly recommend these two wonderful people to mind your pets and your house.

Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. 

Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them.

I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already.  She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it.  She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand.  She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side.  We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of.  We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!

Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had.  She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.

Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. 
We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. 
I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) 
Thank you, Angela and Erica!

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.

This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!

Piper was a wonderful sitter and I would definitely have her come again.  My dog .Winston loved her and was very happy while I was gone.  When I returned home everything was orderly and clean, she changed her bed and washed all the towels.  I totallly recommend Piper to sit at your home.

Lisa was a terrific sitter for our sweet Rosie.  She arrived the evening before the sit, and we immediately could tell how much love and attention Rosie was to get.  She provided updates and pictures which we were delighted to read, and we could tell Rosie was happy and well-cared for with Lisa on their walks and fetching sessions, on their car rides, and during Rosie’s many daily naps.  Lisa left the house in great condition, she’s very tidy and clean. Lisa’s experience with dogs and her friendly, sweet personality makes her an excellent sitter taking good care of animals while also being easy to communicate with.  I would recommend her and would gladly invite her back.

Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem!   They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice!

Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here.  She  let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the  animals. 

The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home!  Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
