Catherine
Opossum Bay, Australia
Lover of all things pets, plants, living spaces and nature.
Catherine was very attentive to Gordie. She notified me about Gordie’s not drinking enough water while he was in his crate. Catherine updated me with photos daily. Our house looks exactly the same as we left it. It felt like no one was in the house while we were away. I would highly recommend her. ❤️

And everything was on its place, tidy and relaxed when we came back home. we are very gradful that we have chosen and met Lorise and Richard for our housesit. THANK YOU!
Katelyn
Opossum Bay, Australia
Pet-Loving Couple from Tasmania, Bringing Fun and Care To Your Furry Friends
I can’t say enough good things about Katelyn and Adam—they’re exceptional sitters, and anyone would be fortunate to have them. Their communication was excellent, and they treated our dog and home with the utmost care. We returned to a spotless house and a very happy pup. I just wish they lived closer so we could have them sit for us more often. Absolutely 10/10!
Jane
Opossum Bay, Australia
Two Tasmanians seeking house sitting opportunities
Jane and James were an absolute pleasure to have in my home. They were super friendly, tidy and respectful, I got updates and photos of Rosie running down the beach enjoying the attention they lavished on her. James even chopped my firewood into more manageable pieces for me, came home to a warm home, sheets and towels washed and a very chilled and happy little dog. Highly recommend this wonderful couple, thank you, what a treasure you both are x
Karlijn
Opossum Bay, Australia
I try to make the owners' trips easier by taking care of their animals
Karlijn and Jordi did a wonderful job taking care of our house and Labrador, Ira. We returned to a spotlessly clean house and happy pup. It was great to meet Jordi first as they were local to Hobart, to show him through the house and run through Ira’s routine. We didn’t get very frequent updates so if you’re the kind of pet owner who wants lots of photos and updates let them know, but Ira seemed very well cared for so that was the main thing! Highly recommend.
Clive
Opossum Bay, Australia
Recently retired couple.
To our delight Clive & Cris were wonderful. They looked after our 2 boys extremely well. We came home to very happy fur babies. They followed all the instructions given before we left and gave regular updates on the boys. They looked after the house well and were extremely good to our old next door neighbour. We came home very late at night and there was a home cooked meal and slice waiting for us. We really appreciated as it had been a very long day. Our chickens were happy as they laying proficiently and the fish had had babies. All in all an excellent outcome. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Steve
Opossum Bay, Australia
Not just a house sitter but a handy man too!
Very grateful to Steve for looking after Ziggy for me after the planned sitter had to cancel one week before the sit. Communication prior to the sit was great, he arrived on time and we took Zig for a quick walk to the local park round the corner, so he could get his bearings and see Ziggy's favourite place for the morning run. Steve settled in quickly with a beer from the bar and then took Zig to the pub for some food. During the sit he always responded quickly to my messages asking how everything was going with Ziggy and also sent me a photo and a short video clip. I would've liked him to take Ziggy to the local park every morning, as i explained that's what he loves the most each day, as he meets up with his best mate since they were puppies, Griffin, and other dogs and walkers, but i think Steve preferred to do his own thing with him, which is fair enough and no harm done. Steve had just left when I got back and Ziggy was in good shape and the house clean and tidy, with bedding and towels washed and hung up to dry. I was concerned the next day to find 6 pouches of Ziggy's wet food still in the freezer and 2 more in the fridge, as it was only an 11 day sit and he almost always eats one pouch a day. Steve said that he had instead fed him a few packs of his alternative food as he didn't seem to want his usual food a few times. Although what was left of his alternative food didn't account for the discrepancy, Steve just said he wolfed down that food and he also gave him his cooked chicken as a treat and some salami. Thanks very much again Steve for all your efforts and especially for getting Ziggy more of his favourite chicken and best wishes.
Stephanie
Opossum Bay, Australia
Loving couple, who wants to love and care for your pets & home.
Jas and Steph stayed with our two mini schnauzers. We arrived home to healthy, happy pups, which is exactly what we asked for.
Bridget
Opossum Bay, Australia
Housesitter Extraordinaire
It was a privilege to have Bridget stay and look after my dog. She left the house immaculate and included my dog in all her daily activities. He was very happy and well looked after. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Jasmine
Opossum Bay, Australia
5* House & Pet Sitter - Professional & Reliable
Jasmine took wonderful care of our three dogs,2 cats and 2 cows. She sent photos and videos while we were away and we could tell that the animals all enjoyed her company. We came home and all of our animals were in good health and happy and relaxed. Jasmine also had the use of one of our cars as we live a distance from public transport and the car was returned cleaner than we left it!
Reviews from Dog Owners
Christina
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Kara
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
Alaina
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.
Mia
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.
Amanda
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Larissa
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
Nadine
Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!

First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
Craig
Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.

To this list of attributes I would add flexible, capable, sensitive, extremely good with the dogs even if one of mine is sometimes a little ornery, and just a wonderful person all around. Because of constantly changing circumstances due to a move and coronavirus, my dogs ended up spending not two weeks but a whole month with John and they were so comfortable and happy. John helped them in so many ways and coordinated shipping them overseas, he went above and beyond the wildest stretches of what a house sitter entails and did it with a smile and a laugh and reassurances that all would be well. And indeed he was absolutely right - the dogs arrived so well cared for that all my fears of them being traumatized went out the window. John’s flexibility, and his kindness as well as his impeccable maintenance of my house in my absence all make me recommend him an absolute 10 out of 10. Thank you John for all your help this summer!!
