Hannah Rose and Simon were great pet sitters, they were very self sufficient and coped with various building projects that were going on during their visit, the cats were relaxed and happy when we got home and a nice clean house, we would absolutely recommend them.

Bill and Teckla are a lovely couple with a varied range of interests. We had a few days together before we left to show them the ropes and had several conversations about their experiences while travelling. We realised we had made an excellent choice for our sitters. It was clear immediately that they are animal lovers and quickly made friends with Monty, Digby and Rocky. Just what we wanted! Lhasa’s are not the easiest dogs to sit for, however Bill and Teckla clearly understood what was required, particularly with Monty who is a notoriously fussy eater. During our time away we received daily reports about our pets including several pictures. Very reassuring for us. We also had an ongoing conversation about how our holiday was going and how they were enjoying the local French culture including Duras chateau and the soirée gourmand. When we returned the house was spotless, bedding washed and our ‘boys’ were obviously well cared for and loved. A credit to Bill and Teckla and worthy of a five star rating. We enjoyed our time with them both before and after our trip and would welcome them back to Marsou at any time. They a generous and kind couple who our pets adored. Thank you for your enthusiasm in sitting for us. Please keep in touch.

Alison was fantastic from start to finish. She communicated well throughout the sit and gave Archie lots of attention and care. He was a very happy little dog and we felt completely secure knowing Alison was looking after him and the house. Hope to have her back for future sits ad she really did make the whole process enjoyable.

Theresa and Paul were incredible pet sitters. From the moment I met them at the front door they put me at ease and more importantly they fussed over Buddy and put him at ease immediately. Buddy is a Miniature Foxy and not been left without Mum or Dad, so this was a very nervous time for us, thus the 4 day sitting to see how everyone coped. Theresa sent us photos of a very relax and happy Buddy, so we have opened the door for more trips in the future. Our home was well looked after, clean and tidy and all as it should be. We have gained some lovely friends. My only regret was they took away home with them more than they brought. I gave them Covid. I apologise for that. Thanks again for everything. Regards Bev and Graham, Gold Coast Australia.

Suzanne & Roger are amazing! It was my very first experience with zeewoi and house sitting, and I am very glad that they accepted to come and look after my girl and my house for 4 weeks. They are reliable, very easy to communicate with, extremely organized, super friendly, and the list goes on and on....... I was a little bit anxious about leaving my fur baby and my home with "strangers", but they both made me feel confident from our first call until the end of my journey overseas. My dog was sad when they left, it says a lot..! I'm very thankful to Roger & Suzanne, and I recommend 1000%. Thank you Suzanne and Roger <3

I cannot praise Sheila and Matt enough. They looked after my two dogs and house as if they were their own and I returned to very contented dogs and a spotless house. It was my first experience of usiing zeewoi and it certainly will not be my last after this experience. I am just sorry that Sheila and Matt are too far away to house sit more often.

Cheryl and Ian communicated very well before and during the sit. Arrival time was to the minute, questions were asked and answered. During the sit there was a storm in the area and Cheryl was thoughtful to message me that there was no damage at my place, thank u for that Cheryl. I came home to a very clean house, laundry was dry so I just had to make the bed. I had to select excellent for pet care because the option of n/a wasn't available, there were no pets this time ( they were at a friend's house). Cheryl and Ian are welcome to come back anytime.

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!

Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.

Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.

Such a great family! George, Larissa and their crew were a fantastic bunch. Our large senior dog got an eye infection right before we left for our trip and so we had to ask them to do some extra eye care. When it was clear that it wasn’t getting better they were willing to load up Lorax and take him to a vet appointment and then apply the prescribed ointment for the next week and a half. Definitely above and beyond care that we really appreciated!
Our house was left in great shape, our pets were super well cared for, and George and Larissa were great communicators. We have had many many sitters over the past 3 years but this was the first family. Nothing to worry about, they were terrific and we would happily have them back again. 
Thanks for taking such good care of our fury family and our home!

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!

Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!

Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!!  We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.

Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication.  She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs.  While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right.  When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order.  A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home  She is a very caring and nurturing individual.

Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. 

From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously.

They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. 

In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
