Maureen just looked after our two boys (cats) and home for six weeks. It was wonderful that she came a day early so they could get used to her and we could do a proper handover (and also got to chat about her amazing travel stories!) We got regular updates and pics, she navigated a plumbing issue during her stay, and we came home to fresh eggs and milk in the fridge!

Melissa was quite simply BEYOND💙. She took care of several contractors that had to be sent to the house while I was gone. She cleaned all the linens and the house although all I said was to strip her bed, and she kept me updated on how my cat was adjusting. I trust her implicitly after all she’s done for me and will gladly welcome her back anytime without all the contractors!!! She’s awesome!

Grellan was one of the best house sitters we have ever had. He sent us photos daily and we could really tell our pups had a great time and were well taken care of. We would highly recommend Grellan to anyone needing a house sitter.

Natalie was great with our dog and cat! She brought our cat inside every night with ease which made for a stress free vacation for us. Our home was nice and clean when we returned and she was great at communicating. Would highly recommend her!

Lucy, Latisa, Grace and Katrina were phenomenal house and pet sitters. I cannot say enough great things about them. First and foremost they took great care of our pets. I received regular updates which always makes a pet owner happy. Our house was treated like their own. They left the house with clean sheets on all the beds which was so appreciated and the house was very clean. It is always great to come home without having to do laundry. They even left us a wonderful thank you card with a special treat. They are welcome back anytime. I can tell they are genuinely nice and caring people.

Ryan and Angela were fantastic! They took excellent care of our sweet, somewhat high maintenance cat. They communicated regularly and sent photos. They were very responsive when we asked them questions and took great care of our place. Highly recommended!

Julie and Giles were great to the point that when we returned home late at night the cats didn’t even get out of their bed to greet us. Our home was left near and tidy and nothing was out of place. The only minor suggestion was for them to send more frequent messages, especially in the beginning of the sit. I’m sure they felt that all was under control (which it was) but as a homeowner I need more reassurance in the beginning. We were delighted to have had them stay at the house and invited them back when we take another trip in September if it works with their schedule. The cats love Julie and Giles and they were well cared for.

Onyxe is the BEST sitter ever! We think she is The Dog Whisperer. Zoe was treated royally and even was given new toys. Our home was immaculate when we returned. Could we give Onyxe 10 stars?

Lex was a wonderful sitter. We had an early flight and Lex was able to come the evening before which gave us the opportunity visit and get settled in and get to know our pups. While we were away, Lex consistently checked in and took great care of our home and pups. I’ve used Zeewoi 25 times to date and would recommend Lex to anyone.

Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back

Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.

David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!

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!

Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter.  She  went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love.  And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also.  I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter.  She is a very sweet lady.  I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.

Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!

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!

Ray and Lynn are absolutely the best pet sitters you could ask for. They were extremely responsive to texts and emails and chatted with us over WhatsApp before the sit. They were very flexible and arrived the night before our sit so we could leave early the next morning.  They even brought us ice cream because it was Joe's birthday the day they arrived. Very thoughtful of them. They are very friendly, relaxed people that are easy to talk to. Our dogs immediately bonded to Lynn upon their arrival.  The first morning our cat managed to sneak outside and was MIA overnight despite their valiant efforts to get him to return. Ray tried to capture him but our cat fought with him and escaped again before eventually returning the next morning. Unfortunately Ray was scratched and bit by the cat during this struggle.  He developed an infection in his hand. We did offer to come home or find a replacement sitter so they could return to the US but they were able to get medical attention here and antibiotics.  They are so kind and didn't want to ruin our vacation! Two days before we were to arrive home the infection in Ray's hand took a turn for the worse and they had no choice but to head home to the US to get immediate medical care. They waited for our friend to arrive before departing.  We were so impressed with them that even under these stressful circumstances they cleaned our house and laundered the sheets. Our kitchen cupboards looked better organized than before we left. Our garden was watered and well cared for during the heat wave.
They were excellent at sending updates and photos throughout the sit. Our dogs were very happy and well cared for. 
We cannot recommend them highly enough!

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.

You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! 

Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them!

During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable.

After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! 

If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!
