Kevin and Cara were great once again! They did a sit for us a few months back and I was so pleased to have them back again to take care of our dog Lenny. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for lovely trustworthy people to take care of your home and pets while you are away.

Gordon and Susan were the perfect sitters. They arrived early giving more than enough time to familiarise them with the house and my quirky smart features as well as the garden and chooks. Comms were perfect before and during the sit with frequent updates on the animals and weather. Gordon even donned my wellies to retrieve a parcel when the river flooded blocking the road. The place was spotless on my return with even the boot room floor washed. They even remade their bed their bed before leaving (I was away agsin 2 days lster with snother ditter) To

Wanda and Don were fantastic. They were great communicators and gave us the reassurance we needed in leaving our dogs in their care. They sent us regular photos which was just what we needed when missing our dogs while on holiday. The house was left in meticulous condition. We would recommend them to anyone and would seek them out again in the future.

Jill and Carl are a fantastic couple and now very good friends, having sat for us 4 times in total. As ever, they looked after Moose extremely well, propped up our fence when it blew down in the wind whilst we were away, and very kindly got us out of a jam when our car broke down on the way to the airport! They always leave our house very clean and tidy - they are great sitters.

Sue and Miki looked after our dogs when we were away on holiday and we couldn't have found better sitters. They were so nice, easy going and clearly love animals. We came back to very happy relaxed dogs and a spotless house! Thank you again Sue and Miki, we'd love for you to come again!

Peta-Jan and Tim were so reliable, friendly and genuinely lovely. They looked after our hobby farm, goats, chickens and sheep for two weeks with care, and left our house spotless. They left a delicious home cooked meal for us on our arrival home, which was so much appreciated. They communicated clearly, and let us know anything important, but also left us alone to switch off mentally and enjoy our holiday as much as possible. I felt very comfortable having them in my home and felt I could trust them and rely on them to look after everything. It was such an incredible gift to have them, and to have this time for our family holiday.

Animal loving Australian couple who will care for a home away from home

Katelyn and Jason arrived to care for Tosca and quickly picked up all the information we fired at them in the time we had available prior to our departure. We instantly warmed to them and felt sure they would look after our home and dog carefully. They had their work cut out for them as Tosca had 3 savage ear infections which needed a detailed daily routine and she seemed in good health and good heart when we returned - in fact I think she missed them for the first couple of days! We left the house clean and tidy for them and found our home in the same way which was nice. They kindly stayed on a little longer on the last day so Tosca wasn't alone for too long before our return. In short, they are a delightful young couple who made the most of being in this beautiful part of England and we hope to welcome them back here again before they head home to Australia.

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already.  She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it.  She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand.  She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side.  We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of.  We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!

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!

David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again!

David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away.

They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out!

David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it!

I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)

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.

I've always been lucky with my sitters through zeewoi, and this time was no exception. George, Larissa and their four lovely children were the absolute perfection in house guests and I cannot praise this wonderful family too highly. 

They did all the usual things you'd expect, gave my beautiful girls all the love and care I could wish, walked them at least once every day despite the best the British weather could throw at them, and sent me regular updates and photos so I could see how much love they were getting. 

They also left the house cleaner and tidier than I think I've ever seen it! I'm a bit worried that all they did for the week was walk and play with the dogs and then clean the house - I'm beyond grateful, the place looks amazing!

They really are the very nicest people too, George has a hilarious sense of humour (thanks for the funny texts George!) and Larissa is calm, kind and an inspiration as a mother. 

I really can't wait to have them back to look after the girls again in the summer and wish the whole family a wonderful trip until then. 

If they come and house sit for you then you are in for a real treat!

Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉

Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!

Melissa and Chris are amazing.  We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity.   They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them.  Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could.  I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them.  They also took very good care of our house and  plants.

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!!
