Samantha and Gareth are super house sitters and a fun loving very reliable couple. We couldn’t have asked for better. The cats were in tip top condition as was house when they left. A pleasure to meet and we hope they come back again.

It was lovely to meet Linde and Robert and I felt very comfortable leaving them in my home with my elderly dogs. They were in touch with daily WhatsApp updates and photos which was great, and the dogs and house were clearly very well looked after. I would highly recommend them!

Bernadette was a fantastic and energetic house sitter and looked after our dog Whispa really well. She arrived in time for me to explain everything and immediately bonded with Whispa. I put Bernadette on our car insurance and she drove with confidence and assurance. She absorbed all my instructions with ease. She was very tidy and looked after everything in our home. Everything was super tidy and organized when we returned. While we were away, Whispa ran into the bushes, which she always does, and incredibly unluckily cut herself on something sharp which required some stitches and wearing a cone collar for several days to prevent her from licking the wound. Bernadette was completely amazing in her handling of the situation. Whispa could not have had better care and didn’t actually suffer at all as a result. We were concerned that Bernadette’s trip had been spoilt but she just organized herself around the situation and never once expressed any concern for herself, only for Whispa. She kept in good contact with us and sent photos so we felt in touch with all that was going on. When we came home Whispa still followed Bernadette around and continued to sleep in her room during the few days she stayed on with us. This was Bernadette’s first sit for a dog (as opposed to cats) and she really got thrown in at the deep end but she came out with flying colours and we will be eternally grateful to her for the loving care she gave to Whispa. I would highly recommend Bernadette to anyone looking for a really competent house and pet sitter and I hope she will be able to come back and look after Whispa for us again another day.

Margo and Aaron were amazing sitters. They have looked after our cats before and we were delighted for them return. They gave a lot of time to playing with our two indoor cats, one of which is very nervous. With patience they won him round and he became settled. The videos and What’s Ap messages were fun and informative. Margo and Aaron kept us up to date with cat news! When we arrived home our house was immaculate ( we don’t have a cleaner). We would be extremely happy for them to come to us a third time if they ever wanted to brave the heat where we live ( although a/c helps!). I’d be happy to give them more than 5 stars if that’d be an option! Thank you Margo and Aaron.

We could not have asked for better house sitters. Elaine and Murry were amazing from the start. Nothing was to much trouble and they kept us regular updated with Chesters adventures with what’s app photos. The house was amazingly clean with some milk in the fridge and home made muffins awaiting our return. Would highly recommend and look forward to seeing them again.

I had a wonderful house sitting experience with Debbie. I was present for her first and final night and she was awesome company. Taylor became very fond of her and was very chilled, happy and well fed in our absence. I’d welcome Debbie back to my home any time. Thank you.

Tonya and Simon were really friendly and super helpful. They looked after our 16 year old fox terrier and home for 8 weeks. Tonya and Simon were extremely good at keeping in touch and it was obvious they had a lovely relationship with Tilly. Simon mowed the lawns regularly and kept us up to date with any maintenance issues. We were really happy with Tonya and Simon and highly recommend them as pet and home sitters.

Maggie was a dream house and pet sitter. Our original sitter let us down at the last minute so it was a frantic search to find someone else to fill the gap. She was a very lucky find for us. Nothing was too much trouble for Maggie. I left her a pile of instructions, as I am a very fussy home owner and I must say, the house was pristine when we got home. Maggie sent regular pictures & updates on Jock, who from what I can gather, was more than happy with the arrangement! I would thoroughly recommend Maggie for any future house-sits. We had no problem entrusting her to our new home and crazy little dog.

Absolutely devastated. Please message me as I have all evidence. These people left my dog in a cage full of urine. They broke the house rules and just told me I could retrain my dog. They have literally stolen from us and refusing to pay any of their fines. As I said I have all evidence including videos from my ring door bell. I have all photos of how we came back to our dog and all text messages of now not paying the fines. They also broke our car keys and now going through Zeewoi formal complains and insurance. PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE

My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.

Michele is a great pet sitter for my dog Charley!  She keeps me informed and sends pictures.  I came home to an immaculate home!  I hope she will come back 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.

Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. 
We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. 
Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. 
Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. 
We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. 
Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!

Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year!

From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator.  While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text.  It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have.  

Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house.  Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease.  Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start).  

While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW).  Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible.

Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve!  

When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was!  Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly.  Seriously, our house felt like we never left it.  Everything was spotless, shinny and clean.  She didn’t miss a beat!!  Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!).  Haha.  

If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough.  Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise.  She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.

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.

Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem!   They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice!

Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here.  She  let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the  animals. 

The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home!  Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
