Dog Sitting in Goldsby

Jaime and David are amazing! They were able to come over extremely early on the day I was leaving to go over the particulars of the house. They had great communication on the trip. I came home to an extremely clean house and happy kitties. I would definitely have them sit for me again!

We don't even know where to begin to share the joy, freedom and peace Scott and I felt knowing that Riley and our home were in the care of John and Robin. Seriously, we have had great sitters on zeewoi and John and Robin were outstanding!! We had a wonderful running journal of photos and news of their activities with Riley. She looked so happy in the pictures and she was taken on a variety of walks, hikes, Boulder tours and lakes while we were gone. Riley was clearly loved and given lots of attention. John and Robin are wonderful communicators, are extremely well-organized, are completely self-sufficient, are exceptionally helpful and so willing to do whatever (beyond what we asked). We returned to immaculate vehicles and an immaculate house. All were cleaned as if professionally and we were treated to a delicious lunch when we got home. Scott and I so enjoyed John and Robin is every way. We shared stories over two meals and we hope they will come back to take care of Riley in the coming year (when we are lucky enough to have our calendars match).

I’m very grateful to Deb Combs and her friend Craig for housesitting for me and looking after my two dogs for 3.5 weeks in September. They were excellent house-sitters and took the dog care very seriously. One of my dogs recently had an operation on her knee and Deb was in regular contact about her convalescence and took her to the vet when there was a problem. She walked the dogs twice a day and sent me regular photos of them- looking happy! She bought and cooked up some extra food for them and wouldn’t let me refund her. Sorry you had to do that Deb! The house was super clean and tidy when I returned and even the laundry was done. Deb broke one of my glasses and replaced it with a whole new set of very classy wine glasses. Thank you! She returned my car to me cleaned and with a full petrol tank. What a treat. She also took me to the airport and fetched me when I returned, which was very helpful. My garden was alive and blossoming. Deb kept it watered while I was away and it was a joy to return to it. So thanks to Deb and Craig- I hope you enjoyed your time in Cape Town and Id love to welcome you back in the future!

Brentlee and Patti were exceptional house sitters! They were professional, courteous, considerate, on time, loved our dogs, communicated well and left our home in tip top shape. I can't say enough about them except that when they apply to your housesitting dates, accept their application asap! I will always try to use them as they are SO trustworthy which made our trip away from home so much more enjoyable. Thank you Brentlee and Patti for treating our home... and our fur babies... just like we would have! You guys were awesome!

Jessica and Jeremy stayed at our house for 3 months while we were abroad. They treated their stay with true professionalism, asking great questions upfront, communicating clearly throughout the stay, and caring greatly for our pets and home. We felt totally at ease our whole trip. As it happens, both our house and our pets had a few issues— our clothes dryer bit the dust, and one of our cats started having regular hairballs— and Jessica and Jeremy were quick to communicate and work as a team with us to find solutions. When we returned home, everything was spotless and we were welcomed by freshly baked cookies and a lovely card. We could not have chosen better sitters, and they’ll be the first people we contact next time we travel!

Our second sit with Diana and we couldn't be happier. She was on time and met at the door by Harley - who clearly remembered her pampering. Upon return, the house was as pristine as we left it. Diana is efficient and professional in all contacts. Do yourself a favor and book her soon!

They were great! They were flexible with our dates/times, took great care of our pets, responded quickly to messages, and left our house clean. We’d happily have them back!

Michelle is one of the best sitters we have ever had. When we first spoke, she made it clear that her priority would be ensuring our pets and property were taken care of while we traveled. Her communication was excellent before and during the sit. Our dog and cats took to her immediately as did we. She has a wonderful personality and it was apparent she was a reliable and trustworthy person. She left the guesthouse neat and tidy. We highly recommend her and are hopeful she will sit for us again in the future.

Andrew and Sylvia were wonderful. From the first moment we met them, we knew our little family were in good hands. Raven, a tough judge at times, took them very quickly. They were so kind and accomodating with our schedule. They took the dogs on daily adventures, and shared pictures and updates a couple times a day. When we came home the place was cleaner then when we left. They even left us a beautiful photograph. We would gladly welcome them back anytime.

Chrysinda and Scott were fabulous in every way. Chrysinda spent quality and loving time with my dog, Sam. Scott also made Sam feel comfortable and loved (but he worked full time so Chrysinda took the lead). Without being requested they sent updates and photos to stay in touch. They both spent much of their last day working to assuring my home was clean and tidy. I could not have asked for a better experience.
