Whakatane District, New Zealand
Mature couple who are reliable and honest house sitters.
I can't recommend Donna and Tony highly enough. They were absolutely brilliant and I didn't have a moment's concern leaving them in our house nor with our twelve and a half year old retriever. I would definitely use them again if they would like to come!

New Zealand Professional Couple with a Love for Pets
Leah and Matthew were amazing. Our dog, Blossom, has anxiety, and within no time at all, she was snuggling and living her best life (now I know how to give her head massages!). They were extremely communicative and caring. I was in a place without easy access to the internet, and they took great pains to keep me updated and informed about Blossom and our two cats. Thank you for the excellent care!

Professional Kiwi couple keen to engage in different cultures and communities.
Chris and Donna are truly 5-star! They took such great care of the dogs and the house making our long travel overseas completely stress free. They sent photos and updates daily. The dogs loved them so much that they are still looking for them days later. We hope they can sit for us again. A wonderful couple,

Paul and Annie are lovely sitters. They took good care of Casey & Chloe and our six 'Feather Girls'. We would definitely have them stay again for another doggy-sit should dates work out. Thanks again guys! :)

We had a wonderful experience with Gaylee as our sitter! From the moment we connected, she was friendly, communicative, and attentive. Gaylee arrived the day before the sit and so we were able to have a meal together and get to know each other and show her some of Billy's routine, and go for a walk. together. She, and her friend Jill took great care of our home and, more importantly, our dog Billy. Billy instantly warmed to Gaylee, and it was clear that he was well looked after while we were away. We returned to a spotless home and very happy dog! We were able to enjoy our time away without any worries. We'd highly recommend Gaylee for anyone looking for a reliable and caring house/pet sitter! Thanks so much Gaylee!

Pet loving. Fit, active, gym going retirees.
Our cats had a fantastic 2 weeks with Lois and Barry! The cats were clearly quite content when we returned, and our house was left very clean. Lois and Barry also took excellent care of our plants - when we returned, some had grown significantly. We absolutely recommend these two as pet sitters!

Simply the best. We cannot praise her enough. Our dog Jack loved her and was clearly very content with his time spent with Helen. Helen arrived the night before we left for our holiday. We and Jack bonded very quickly with her. . She was so easy and cheerful. It was such a relief. It meant that we could go away knowing Jack would be fine and of course he was. Helen gives gold star care. She is an absolute treasure. Thank you Helen for loving and caring for Jack. We are deeply grateful.

Reliable retired teachers looking for house sits around the world.
We left the house confident the dogs and house were in the best of hands. While away, we received lovely messages and photos showing very happy dogs. And on return we found everything so clean and tidy and the dogs had obviously been given the best of care - lots of love and walks. We were so glad Andy and Julie had a chance to go and explore locally too. We would happily invite them back at any time.

Hello World, I’m ready to look after your little angelic furballs!
Christina was friendly and relaxed. She settled into our home with the two cats and enjoyed her time with them. We certainly appreciated having her there knowing that while we were away our cats were being well cared for. A big thank you Christina for your insights, enthusiasm and general good nature.

We liked Liz and Geoff very much. They are a lovely, honest, straightforward and reliable team. We had no qualms about leaving Puffin and our house in their hands. We exchanged some photos and conversations during our week away. Sadly we did not see each other on our return, but found that both the house and dog had been well cared for. We would certainly love to see them again and can highly recommend them as zeewoi.
Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
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!
Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
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!
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used. My husky LOVES her. Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly. She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia. She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
