A pleasure to meet Dawn, we knew that our cats and chickens were being left in capable hands. Dawn asked all the right questions on handover and she had also read up on chickens. We were not only happy with the care of our animals but also really happy that she had made the most of her stay here too. Our house was also immaculate on our return. Would love to have her return, no hesitation on recommending. Thank you Dawn.

Mollie and Luke, gave my boy the care and attention he needed. They kept in touch with a few pictures and messages giving the right balance. The house was clean and tidy when I arrived back and he was a happy boy. I and Campbell would welcome them again into our home.

We were really pleased to have Laura as our Housesitter! We had a smooth handover and she totally took to our 3 very individual cats and they all seemed most content in the photos she sent us whilst we were away on holiday. Laura also watered my garden pots during the warm weather, which is a great concern of mine. We had every faith in her looking after the house, dealing with the recycling, keeping us updated and she enjoyed her stay so much, she would be interested in sitting for us again. We would of course be delighted!

Just the loveliest people who looked after our hens and dogs really really well. Something did go wrong during their sit which was not their fault, and they reacted effectively and sorted it out quickly. We felt very confident leaving the house and animals with Jan and Simon. We hope they will sit again for us

Danielle and Christian stayed in our house with our elderly cat for 5 days. We met them before going on our holiday and immediately warmed to them. They clearly were self-sufficient although not having a car (they came to Scotland by air, from Cornwall) and made good friends with the now-retiring cat right away (not so easy as one might assume!). They managed in the house perfectly, and our WhatsApp communications left us entirely at ease. The house was clean and all fine when we got back and Cookie was clearly content too. D and C are busy people but if they do apply to an invitation of yours, we have no hesitation in recommending that you take them on! J&H

Simon and Grace were our first ever zeewoi and we were probably their last before their new house was completed and they could move in. As soon as they arrived we knew the house and Teddy would be well looked after. They clearly loved both and knowing that they were going to enjoy their sit and Teddy was going to enjoy it meant that we could go away and thoroughly enjoy ourselves too. While we were away we exchanged WhatsApps of what we were each doing including Teddy having days out at the seaside. It was like having friends stay really. Teddy was clearly well looked and had a waggy tail when we got home but the house…… absolutely gleaming! Well beyond the call of duty and well appreciated. This was zeewoi working to perfection. It suited their situation and ours perfectly and we couldn’t have wished for a better first sit. I’m sure all the lucky homeowners and pets who were looked after by Simon and Grace while they were waiting for their new house to be ready wish them a very happy time in their own new home.

Helen was amazing. So organised and with brilliant communication. One of our cats unexpectedly had an injury so he needed medication and a visit to the vets for a check up, Helen did this for us with out any issues and was informing us every day of how both cats were. Helen left the house in perfect condition to come home to and the cats looked happy and healthy! Would definitely love to have Helen sit for us again - highly recommend!

As soon as Tim and Ruth arrived we knew that our dogs were going to have a great time! And they most certainly did - updates throughout the week were a joy to read - dogs were number one priority and were kept busy and happy. We returned home to happy dogs and a spotless house - we do hope Tim and Ruth will return some time but get the feeling they will become very popular! Thank you so much to both of you.

Brian is absolutely amazing.  This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative.  We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.

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!

Brian was great and was my first sitter experience through TH to look after my two little dogs and one of them was a recent rescue I had for a month and learning new things and still training. Brian was good with communication, clear about his travel plans and we managed adjustments to him coming in early by a day. This was helpful for me to feel I can personally give orientation to my home and pets before leaving for a few days. Brian was also good with the hand-off to my next sitter when weather conditions delayed me. I came back to a tidy home and happy pets. Brian was calm with my new pup's minor furniture destruction. Thankfully I bought the warranty! I would recommend Brian to anyone and would consider him again for future sits!

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!

Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.

We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs.  We were very happy they accepted.  A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned.  So, we posted more dates on zeewoi.  To our happy surprise,  Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted.   This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs.

We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits.  They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting.  D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals.  This is most important for my wife and I.  We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals.  

Communication was excellent.  The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us.  We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos.  Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us.  D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations.  Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them.  Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare.  We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away.  The dogs definitely love being around D&J.


Homecare:  We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned.  It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better!  D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden.  It is very big and takes hours to mow.  So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. 

Our dogs are so very important to us.  When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world.  We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. 

We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us.  They are fantastic!

Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason!

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

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.

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected.  I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated.  We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned.  My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed.  Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone.  I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here.  If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry.  I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.
