Experienced professional couple who can work from anywhere and cuddle your pets!
This was our second time using this service and once again, our house sitters did not disappoint. The house was spotless, all the furry and feathered critters are happy and were well cared for and dinner and dessert were even prepared for us for this evening! ❤️ They provided almost daily updates with pictures, always keeping us in the loop. They also went above and beyond by ensuring all our garden veges that were ripe and ready for picking were cleaned and frozen,(except for the ones they used to make us homemade salsa!) 😀 With 45 acres and a lot of furry and feathered friends, they handled each task like pros as they learned the day to day routine of our little hobby farm. Having said all that, I really know they did a spectacular job because after our pooch patrol greeted us late last night with a happy welcome home, they deserted us and went back down stairs to sleep with Chris and Meg for the night! 😆 That's when you know they did something right! ;) Thanks again Chris and Megan!

Self-employed Canadian couple with a love for animals and a passion for travel!
David and Erin were fantastic zeewoi and have given us even more confidence about the company. They were super friendly and organised and gave us lots of feedback of our girls during their stay. Our house was left immaculate with all linens washed and ready to be used again. So helpful and considerate following a holiday! We would definitely have them stay again.

Work-from-home couple ready to spoil your pets
Tegan and Jacob were INCREDIBLE. Less than a week before we left Ernest with them for two nights, Ernest had to have emergency surgery. Afterwards, Ernest was taking three medications, twice a day, and had to be kept trapped in our bathroom, so that he didn't move too much or jump on anything. I was very worried and considered cancelling my work trip. How could a stranger be trusted to keep an eye on him, give him his medications on time, spend time with him in a bathroom?? But Tegan and Jacob came to the RESCUE! They immediately inspired confidence so I felt like I could go without guilt. And then they delivered. They literally sat with their laptops on the bathroom floor so Ernest could sit next to them and not be lonely. They handled his multiple meds and reported twice a day with photos as to how he was doing. They kept an eye on his surgical site and reported on his urine. They left us a two-page handwritten note with all the details about his condition along with freshly baked cookies - just because. They even cleaned up the flies that were starting to accumulate in the bathroom because of the food we were leaving out for Ernest there. I am stunned by their commitment and kindness. Ernest has been much less anxious about being trapped in the bathroom, I think because he no longer associates it with isolation and loneliness. My husband and I are left to wonder whether we should have gone away longer 😅 Anyway, I can go on and on, but they were absolutely the right people to find at the right time, and we (and Ernest) feel very fortunate to have had them here. Strong strong recommend!!

Non-smoking Canadian couple, light-hearted and professional
Heather and Tim were fantastic. We came home to a very happy dog! We weren't worried about Ada while we were away as we got lots of updates. Also came back to a tidy flat which was lovely after a long flight. Throughout the whole process Heather and Tim were on their game. They had great questions during the interview and made us comfortable booking them so far in advance. They maintained contact coming up to the visit. We were never worried about Ada while away as we got lots of updates - when she got sick they kept us updated and her well looked after. Very friendly and easy to chat to! Thank you so much and welcome back any time!!

Retired educator looking for house and pet sitting opportunities in Europe
I was very glad to find Cathy as my cat and housesitter for my recent week away. Very organized, pragmatic and self sufficient, Kathy coordinated her schedule to fit mine and had read all my information in advance, making orientation easy and giving us time to get acquainted (including with Chernish!). Cathy was a good communicator and provided great daily photos/videos of Chernish. She had no problems giving his limited medication and I know she spent quality time with Chernish - including monitored outside time too. It was nice that she had a car and an interest in the area as well as French language skills - which put my mind at ease since I knew she would be able to manage anything that came up. As a plus, her background enabled her to help some of my struggling plants! The house was perfectly clean and exactly as I left it when I got back, and while we couldn't see each other in person - due to flight schedules - she left me detailed information upon my return. Thank you for coming across the pond for this sit (as well as several others in France), Cathy!

Trudie and Bill - recently retired - hikers - home/pet sitters
Trudie and Bill looked after Pip for 5 days and were very attentive to his needs. They have a senior dog so realised the extra work involved. They were very easy guests and gave Pip all the attention he needs in his old age. Many thanks to you both, we’d love to have you back again,

Responsible Animal Lover and Working Professional
Thanks to Carolyn, our confidence was restored after a rather disappointing first experience. We confirmed the house sit with Carolyn just 3 weeks prior to our vacation as our first sitter had to cancel due to a medical emergency. During our first meeting we felt comfortable with Carolyne, she was professional, pleasant and very forth coming with the possibility she may need to cancel due to a personal situation. Given the short time till our vacation, we decided to confirm with the understanding we had a backup plan if needed. We were so lucky it all worked out, Carolyn was very independent, she had read the welcome package throughly and as such she was very prepared for the visit. She communicated with us as needed ( we didn't expect daily emails) with either questions and or updates and was quick to respond to any of our texts. We returned home late in the evening to a very clean and tidy house and a dog that was happy and well cared for. We would definitely invite Carolyn again and recommend her for house sits without hesitation.
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
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.
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.
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!
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
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.
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
Charlie was again an outstanding sitter for us whilst we were away at a wedding. This is the second time having Charlie and although we have not met face to face we completely trust her with our home and of course our cat, Nala. Charlie left the house spotless which is amazing to come home to after a long day of travelling. She is reliable, good at communicating and trustworthy and we would not hesitate to recommend her enough. Thanks again Charlie, we hope you come back again and there might even be a dog next time😁
As ever, Charlie was the perfect dog/house sitter - took loving care of our dog and looked after the house and garden as if they were her own; all returned in immaculate conditon!
