Zaneta & her girls arrived a day early to go through what was required and settle in with my dog. The house was left clean & tidy and she also left me bread, milk & chocolates for my return.

Caireann has pet sit for us a few times now and my girls are always so loved and well looked after! I’m always pleased when she’s free to do a local sit for us and frankly, my two cats love having Aunty Caireann over! Couldn’t recommend more.

Julia and Joe were brilliant sitters. We had a video call prior to the sit and I felt really comfortable with them immediately. It was great to meet them and introduce them to my cat when they arrived for the sit and I felt totally relaxed leaving them in my home. They communicated well and sent me photos of my cat looking really relaxed and happy while I was away. I came home to a very tidy house and a very chilled and happy cat. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them and if they ever wanted to come and sit for me again they'd be very welcome. Thanks :-)

Emilia was an excellent communicator and clearly loves cats. Percy was glad to see me but seemed happy and well fed. The flat was clean and tidy and the sheets were changed. I cannot fault Emilia and would definitely call on her again if she hadn't moved to Glasgow!

Eila and Alistair were great house sitters. We had a nice evening with them before we headed off on holiday. They were good at communicating before and during their stay. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and very happy dogs and chickens. We would recommend them as house sitters

Susie and her friend Lisa stayed here with Kahlisi as we went away for a three week summer break. Never before have I had such wonderful contact with the sitters (even before the sit!) Susie organised a whatsappgroup and not only did we get updates and photos of Kahlisi and the garden (and the animals visiting the garden), but we also got to have a true feeling of friendship. Susie and Kahlisi fell deeply in love, and we are waiting for her visit here in Berlin next month, so that they could reunite for an evening. Thank you Susie and thank you Lisa, for taking such good care of our cat and our garden. See you next time!!

Stephen and Nallely (and their daughter Iona) were great house and pet sitters. Right from when they arrived they connected with our cats, and it was clear that they were very competent - well-equipped with everything they needed for their stay. They are also delightful people, and very thoughtful - for example they used their own sleeping bags on the last night so that they could wash and hang all the bedding up, so that we would not have to wash it on our return. They endured some appalling weather - including two long power cuts - while staying here, but seemed completely unfazed by this. They left the house very clean and tidy. Overall they really are excellent people to welcome into your home.

Janice was the perfect pet sitter for our Border terrier Baxter. He’s 12 now and a little eccentric but also very good natured. Janice and he seemed to get on like a house on fire which was very reassuring for us as it was our first time using the Zeewoi app. Janice was definitely on our wavelength as it turned out we knew lots of the same people and shared the same taste in bands/ music. Janice kept us updated with lovely photos of a very happy Baxter Boy out on lovely walks round our nearby loch. He joined her at the bottom of the bed ( as he usually does with us ) which reassured us that he was very happy having Janice to look after him. He didn’t even wake up when we returned home in the early hours of the morning as he was happily snoozing upstairs with his new best pal. I would highly recommend Janice .

Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. 

I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!

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

You know your sitter has bonded with your dog when he decides to jump in her car after excitedly reuniting with us, as if to say "its been lovely seeing you, mom and dad, but Stacia and i need to hit the road"... Stacia ticks all the boxes you have for a pet/housesitter and then some. We came home to a clean house and a happy pup... We appreciated the frequent pictures and updates from her and look forward to inviting her back.

I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day.  I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year!

From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator.  While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text.  It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have.  

Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house.  Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease.  Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start).  

While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW).  Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible.

Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve!  

When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was!  Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly.  Seriously, our house felt like we never left it.  Everything was spotless, shinny and clean.  She didn’t miss a beat!!  Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!).  Haha.  

If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough.  Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise.  She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. 

The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!

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!

Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose.  
Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes.  They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit.  They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day.  They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety.  We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard.  He was so happy!  No problems were encountered with the house.  Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose.  
The house was spotless when we returned.  Everything in proper order, better than we left it.  
We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!

Angela was fantastic.  She came a day early to meet us and our dog Bella and to get the lay of the land and we so enjoyed meeting her and getting to know her!  She took care of our home and Bella with the utmost care and attention.  She was great to communicate with throughout the sit and we felt confidant being away knowing our dog and home were in such good hands! We returned to a clean house and she even prepared dinner for us!  It was clear that Bella was happy, well taken care of and very fond of her!!  We would definitely recommend Angela.  She was a reliable sitter and a delightful person all around!!
