Energetic, experienced, genuine caring petsitter :)
Wilhelmina was looking after our two cats over two weeks and was super reliable and appreciated by our cats. Luckily, we had the chance to meet her before the sit and could show her around. She cleaned after her sit so it was nice to come back. We can highly recommend her, everything was really smooth.

Kerry E'lyn, Colm and their family were wonderful! They took great care of our pets and our home. They were very tolerant of our cat Mittens, who seemed to be going through a phase of confused toilet habits.....really sorry about that lads! 🤦♀️ They left our home in perfect order, and a delicious cake in the frideg-what a welcome home! Thank you!!

Combining travel and and my love of caring for animalS
Carol was a wonderful house sitter! We were very happy to get to meet with her a few weeks before her sit for us, since she was already in town, and we did a little tour and she got to meet the cats. Despite dealing with some personal family issues while we were away, Carol was an attentive house sitter and she sent us regular updates about the cats. Our house was very clean and tidy when we got home, which made for a lovely homecoming. The cats were clearly happy and had been well taken care of. We'd be happy to host Carol again any time!

Experienced sitters Niamh and Mike
Niamh and Mike were absolutely outstanding. Niamh arrived and the dogs were immediately extremely comfortable in her company. They had a week of beach walks and cuddles. Truly spoilt. We returned to an immaculate house and two fluffy, recently washed dogs. We loved having Niamh and Mike and would highly recommend them as house and dog sitters.

Semi-retired professional couple who love travel.
Eamon and Clare were FABULOUS sitters! From the initial chat over video link, we knew our three animals were going to be in great hands. Eamon and Clare arrived when they said they would and settled in immediately, were friendly, and engaging, keen to know all the elements about the house, pets, medications etc. We have a cat and two dogs, one of whom is 17 ½ and needs extra care, but nothing was too much trouble for them. They are self-reliant, organised (Eamon had a spreadsheet…), kind and funny too. They adapted to the needs of the house and pets with ease – and we only hope our pets behaved as well! We’d happily recommend Eamon and Clare, and hope they come back, even if just for a holiday!

Friendly, reliable and non-smoking married couple who love animals and travel
Mike and Enya were amazing house and pet sitters. This his is in adddition to them being a wonderful and thoughtful couple. They kept in regular contact with daily messages of their adventures with Toby. We returned to a happy dog and a spotless house. They even received the seal of approval from our town with many of our neighbors complimenting us on our friends. We hope they can sit for us again

This is the second sit that Maia helped us with. Once again, it was a great experience from beginning to end. Ruby was clearly delighted to see Maia, as she remembered her from the last sit. Very easy communication, loads of pictures and we knew Ruby was very well looked after while we were away. Lots of fetch and cuddles. Would highly recommend Maia and Miguel, and would love to have them sit again some time in the future! Thanks to you both!!

Riley had gastroenteritis while I was away on work travel, and pet parents who’ve experienced it know that the symptoms are terrifying, and it takes awhile to recover from. But Megan expertly navigated this- making sure that Riley kept to her bland diet, early morning walks, and sending daily detailed updates. While we patiently waited for Riley to bounce back from it, Megan’s consistent and daily updates gave me peace of mind till I could get back❤️

World traveler who will care for your beloved pets and respect your home!
Dana was above and beyond wonderful. She was resourceful, dependable, tidy and had a great connection with our cats. The cats are usually very reserved, but when I introduced her to Connie, within a minute, he climbed into her knee, which we have never seen before... Dana has a very dependable and adult attitude and we totally recommend her, not just with animals but with minding the house. We would have her back in a heartbeat and so would the furries!

A reliable, organized friend and carer for your beloved pets and for your home!
As ever, Andrea’s sit was the best. Everything runs so smoothly everytime. And Lottie and her have become besties. Above all, Andrea’s care of Lottie and my home are second to none. We look forward to having you back soon!
Jeannette was the absolute best pet sitter anyone could ask for! She was communicative and easy going. She took very good care of the house, but most importantly she took superb care of my dog, Bodhi. She took him on long walks and fun adventures everyday. While I was out of the country, I received pictures and updates of their "vacation". I loved seeing Bodhi's and Jeannette's smiles in all the photos. They definitely bonded. :) I would highly recommend Jeannette as a pet sitter and also as an excellent person who cares about people, animals, and the planet.
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!
Laura was an exceptional, reliable, and loving sitter for our goldendoodle Scout, and took such good care of our home! Scout was excited to meet Laura immediately when she arrived at our home for this sit, and showered Laura with all the hugs and kisses. Scout has recently been having issues with seizures, so for this sit I was specifically looking for a sitter who had a depth of experience with giving medication and responding calmly in the event of an emergency. It was a big relief to be able to entrust Scout to Laura's capable and kind hands, and it was extra special that Laura's beloved vizsla had shared the same name. Laura is wonderfully easy to communicate and coordinate with, and was thorough in her care of our home. We came back to our garden looking great, house left in even better shape than I left it to Laura, and a very happy Scout! I cannot overstate how much we appreciated Laura's care for Scout and our home, and heartily recommend her as a pet and house sitter. If you're lucky enough to get on Laura's schedule, your pups will be with the most wonderful stand-in dog mom you could have hoped for!
Jeremy and Brooke were fantastic! We have a senior dog and a over hyper pittie. They gave Daisy her meds and had lengthy walks with Fin to burn off some of his energy. Brooke sent me regular texts to show me precious pictures of the pups by the Christmas tree, which warmed my ❤️. The house looked great when we returned. They are awesome detailed sitters and will make your pets feel loved and secure!!
Deboraj took great care of the apartment and of our goofy unsociable cat. She went out of her way to bring catnip and make friends with Rowan. She communicated often and cared to be as good a house and pet sitter as could be. I can gladly recommend her highly to anyone else looking. Thank you Deborah.
5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
Laura is hands down the best sitter that we have ever had care for our pets and house! Having her stay made our trip away so care free and added a super fun layer of getting her daily (morning and night!) updates with photos and videos, some were hilarious I love Laura’s sense of humor! We were gone 8 days and when’s we arrived home our house was cleaner than when we left, mail on the counter, yard was picked up, it was beyond what we would expect. This made our first day back so easy. Oh’ and our pets were so relaxed and happy we knew they were loved and taken care of while we were away. Laura knew that we were coming home late and she even had bought a yummy quiche, rolls, fruit and juice so that we had breakfast in the morning! Laura is responsive, a great communicator, I could go on but simply put she is welcome at our house anytime. Simply the best!! Thank you tons Laura!!
Angela and Joe are wonderful house and pet sitters sitters in every way. They have a great loving way with animals and my shy dog warmed up to them right away. They are warm, organized, confident, and thorough. They communicated very well and gave me frequent updates and sweet photos of my dog Chica. They also took excellent care of my home. My only regret was that I didn't get to spend more time with them, because they're such lovely and interesting people. I give Angela and Joe my highest recommendation and feel that anyone would be very lucky to have them their sitters! I hope that they return to sit here again.
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
