We could not have asked for anyone better. Our pets loved her and they were very happy left in her capable hands. Our neighbours thought she was brilliant and so did we. We would love her to come back and highly recommend Nicole. She left the house in impeccable condition and looked after our new puppy superbly.

Georgia and Callum were excellant house sitters. We felt relaxed with them from the onset and enjoyed dinner with them before we set off. They stayed in touch and gave us updates during our trip. The house was left in excellant order and they really went the extra mile. We would love to see them again.

Alexis and Frank were the perfect housesitters. This is the first time we have used zeewoi and Alexis and frank held our hands every step of the way. They were happy to meet us at home before the sit, despite the fact that they live in NewZealand and we live in the UK. They were lovely and it was obviously from that first meeting that they knew exactly what they were doing, even though we didn’t. They made us feel completely confident to leave both our home and our precious pet in their care. They txt us regularly in the days before the sit confirming timings and arrival details. Whilst we were away Alexis and Frank just sent us a picture of Larry with a little comment which was lovely and really helped. Larry was in great form when we got home, he was settled and happy. My house and garden were looked after perfectly, Alexis and Frank had even mowed my lawn. They had washed and dried all the towels and bed linen they had used and left us a delicious soup to arrive to in the fridge. They even put some of my garden flowers together in a pretty flower arrangement to come in to which was really lovely. I would definitely recommend Alexis and Frank, they were the perfect people for nervous newbies like us. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

Sian and Geena were wonderful with Sadie. Sadie takes some care and attention to warm up to new people and she warmed right up to them. They were communicative, clean and very kind. Highly recommend as sitters again.

Mary-Rose and Peter were great with our kitties. They spent lots of time giving cuddles and to help make sure the cats were comfortable with them. They shared pictures and stories which I really appreciated. House was clean and tidy when we returned. We would absolutely recommend them!

Gary and Peter did a fantastic job of looking after our dogs and our house. The house was spotlessly clean on our return, the dogs were clearly happy and loving the attention that Gary and Peter were giving them. They had tidied up areas of the garden which we hadn't managed to get to this year and even had dinner ready for our return! We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them as house and pet sitters but will be trying our best to make sure we get them first!!

Ashley and Nick were wonderful caregivers for Kiki - she clearly loved them and they sent lovely photos to let me see how well she was settling into having them around. They left the house in an immaculate state and were just delightful. They made both going away and coming home stress-free. I highly recommend them.

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 😃

Marlen was such a blessing. We had another sitter cancel just a week before our vacation date so I was so relieved that she was able to step in at such short notice. She came to meet our pups a few days in advance so they would recognize her.  While we were away,  Marlen sent picture updates and made sure the dogs were cared for. So glad to have found someone like her to help us out.

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!

Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.

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.

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!

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!

We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs.  We were very happy they accepted.  A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned.  So, we posted more dates on zeewoi.  To our happy surprise,  Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted.   This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs.

We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits.  They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting.  D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals.  This is most important for my wife and I.  We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals.  

Communication was excellent.  The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us.  We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos.  Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us.  D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations.  Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them.  Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare.  We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away.  The dogs definitely love being around D&J.


Homecare:  We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned.  It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better!  D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden.  It is very big and takes hours to mow.  So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. 

Our dogs are so very important to us.  When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world.  We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. 

We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us.  They are fantastic!

Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason!

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.
