Kim and Rowan were wonderful sitters for Kato and for our home. They arrived on time. They left the house immaculate (Rowan kindly mowed our lawn) and left Kato, our over-sized lap-dog, happy and well-exercised. I have no hesitation in recommending them unreservedly.

Rochelle and Lawrence took excellent care of our three year old cockapoo, Gryffin. They were very organized prior to the sit and confirmed arrival/departure times well in advance. They sent great photos during the sit and I could tell Gryffin was in good hands. The house was left clean and I could tell Gryffin really liked them when we got home. Thanks again for giving Gryffin so much love while we were away!

Natacha & Johnathan were the perfect house sitters! From the start they were excellent with their communication, asked all the right questions about looking after the flat/cats and were super flexible when dates slightly changed for us which was really appreciated. Zorro & Sambi clearly loved their company and we received plenty of updates throughout our trip away. Then to top it all off we came home to a spotless flat and a little treat from NZ! I'd recommend Natacha & Johnathan to anyone looking for a sit & would welcome them back any time!! x

Maria & Frank were wonderful looking after our house and dog Paddy. With a road closure, Frank flew over to look after Paddy on time while Maria joined him later on. Paddy was walked often and loved by them and was very happy and in good shape when we returned. The house was clean and tidy when they left and we have no hesitation recommending Frank & Maria and using them again.

What a fantastic couple! Eric and Lesley were extremely self sufficient and excited to explore the city of Brisbane while engaged in this sit. They created a wonderful bond with our dog, Chester, and looked after our house beautifully. We arrived back to a delicious home cooked dinner, a happy and contented dog and an immaculate home. We could not have asked for more!!! Eric and Lesley are everything you could want as Zeewoi and we would highly recommend them for future sits.

Angela and Nik are a lovely couple. They were very punctual and conscientious. They left everything clean and tidy, our two dogs were very well cared for with plenty of walks on the beach and they sent some lovely pictures of the dogs on their walks. They even took the trouble of bathing and grooming the dogs so they were clean for our return. If the opportunity presents itself we would have no hesitation in having them back again to look after our dogs.

Dee came round to my home well before the sit, so we could all meet prior. When she came round for the sit, the dogs were really pleased to see her which was a great sign. Dee communicated really clearly, was on time and was very clean and tidy. And sent me msgs while I was away I felt very confident having her look after the animals and house.

Natalie was a fantastic housesitter and is such a lovely person! We went away for 10 days and throughout that whole time Natalie kept us updated with pictures of our two cats. She was very responsive and left the flat super clean and tidy, and our cats were clearly very well cared for during our absence. We'd be delighted to have her back to housesit again!

Martin and Caitlin are the best house/pet sitters we've ever had. They came fully prepared (they had read through welcome packet thoroughly before they arrived), they sent the best texts and pics to reassure us all was well, and the house was immaculate when we got home. Best of all, they treated Winston like family and he clearly fell in love with them. They are considerate, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. We absolutely would love to have them back (honestly, every time we go on a trip!). They are fantastic and we are truly grateful for the care and love they showed to both our dog and our home.

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!

Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters.  They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine.  Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well.  Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well.    We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

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.

Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!

Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. 
Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!

Delphine was amazing. All 3 of our fur babies took an instant liking to her, which is very unusual of them. We right away knew both our cats and our dog would be happy with her. We came back to relaxed and happy pets and a clean house. We  think we found our ‘go to’ house sitter with Delphine. We would love to have her over again.

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.

Liz did an amazing job babysitting our home and our pets (3 cats and a dog). Communication with Liz was easy and we felt at ease knowing that everything was being taken care of. Liz took our dog Summer for daily walks and kept her entertained. We got regular photos of our pets which were great.
She even looked after and watered many of our outdoor and indoor plants! She was very tidy and our home was left spotless. If you are looking for a sitter we can't recommend Liz highly enough!
