We are animal-loving people and love taking care of them as if they are family!
Natasha (Bianca's sister) and Martina were AMAZING! This is the first time I have had a dog sitter and I was a little apprehensive. However, Natasha sent almost daily photos and videos of our precious bundle, which we really appreciated. Rigby received LOTS of playing and walks, they have a genuine love of dogs. I know Rigby will miss them. In addition, they were excellent at sorting out house issues. They were very calm and efficient at arranging repairs when our washing machine and electric gate decided to break down! After a review, I would normally say, I wouldn't hesitate to use their services again "... however, I am going to pre-book them for next summer! We were very grateful for their high level of professionalism and kindness. Lovely people. Thank you!

Leani was an absolute star! She was easy to deal with, reliable, communicated well and is also a lovely person. We were very happy that Leani stayed and looked after our house and cats and couldn't wish for anyone better. She is adventurous, funny, interesting and great company, shame we didn't spend more time together. I highly recommend Leani and hope that she comes back.

Diligent, passionate and loving couple excited to bond with all animals!!
As this was the first time we had tried zeewoi, we were a little nervous but we really needn't have been. Rahul & Derisha are a lovely couple who took great care of Bryn and of our house and garden. As soon as Rahul arrived, Bryn put his head in his lap wanting his head stroked and that was all we really needed to see to be able to go off happily on our travels. We would happily welcome them back anytime: thank you Rahul & Derisha.

An adventurous couple who loves traveling, pets and meeting new people.
Nicole and Nardus were a fantastic couple! We really enjoyed meeting them and Max was enamoured too. From the moment we met it was as if they were a part of the family and they settled in immediately. We also enjoyed spending time with them and sharing some meals before and after our trip. The house was well taken care of and Max was clearly in great spirits under their care. We hope to see Nicole and Nardus again whether through a housesit or if our paths happen to cross somewhere in the future. Anyone who has them as housesitters will be very lucky indeed! We give them 10 stars!

Bentzy looked after our furry family for us from October 17 to November 8th. All were in good shape when we got home, which is what is most important to us when we have a house sitter. He kept us well supplied with pictures and videos. The house was well looked after. Bentzy also tolerated the idiosyncrasies of our Defender with an open mind.

Sean and Tammi were very nice and were self sufficient. We had a bit of miscommunication which I feel was probably me being unclear and ot specific enough. They had an issue with Molly running off and they remained calm and did everything right. I feel both of us could have communicated better but I feel that it is a learning curve. The most important thing was that our pets were happy and chilled on our return. Thank you Sean and Tammi

This was the second time that Konni has cared for our four Jack Russels and looked after our home. We are blessed to have Konni as a sitter. Came back to a clean house and happy doggies again. Thank you Konni. Till next time.

Anneli communicated well in advance and during the house sit. She obviously loves animals and was caring towards our two dogs. The house was clean and tidy on our return. We would be happy for Anneli to house sit for us again.
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!! :)
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.
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💖🎉
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Christina is the best house and pet sitter that we have ever had. She leaves the house immaculate. She is independent, reliable, and totally professional. Communication is excellent. In terms of pet care, Christina is special. I think that she is a dog whisperer. Bridie, our crazy Wheaten, adores her and is sad when she leaves.
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
