The only down side about having George and Larissa and their wonderful children stay in your home and look after your beloved pets is that you are on holiday and don't get to spend time with them! They are AMAZING! From the minute they arrived (we had a half hour cross over) we felt completely confident and relaxed about leaving. We received daily photos and updates on our lively labrador, careful and considerate questions about taking care of our home (all houses have their quirks and its difficult to leave precise instructions about everything), stories and anecdotes about our dog and what she was doing and how she was interacting with the children (I believe there were tears when they left); and in addition to regular Trusted Houseitting duties the family also looked after our Airbnb and interacted with our guests and looked after them perfectly - all of our guests left 5* reviews and all mentioned Larissa and George as their 'wonderful hosts'. When we got home everything was exactly as we left it plus some extra goodies had been left for us to help us settled in after a long flight. This is a family who are stepping out into the world and doing 'life' in what many would consider a non-conventional way - but that means they are very experienced travellers, quick to hit the ground running when they arrive and 100% adorable. Don't hesitate - say yes!

Sheri Ann was a wonderful pet sitter. She was thoroughly detailed in making sure she knew how to care for the cats and houses and very punctual with pictures sent on a daily basis at least. Most importantly, the cats seemed happy and content when I returned! The house was clean and you couldn't tell anyone was there during my trip. I'd love to have her here again! Thanks Sheri Ann!

If Kathy applies to sit for you, just say YES!! We are lucky to live close enough to Kathy that she arranged to drop by for a meet and greet a few months before the actual sit. We had so much in common and could have chatted for hours! Kathy's communication before, during and after the sit is amazing! You will never wonder how things are going because she will be sending you photos of your happy pets and well cared for home, garden etc. We came home to an immaculate house and happy critters! You can tell how much Kathy enjoys being a zeewoi and she takes great pride in providing the best service. We can only hope that Kathy will come back and sit for us again. Luna, Tom and the hummingbirds all miss her! Thank you, Kathy!!

Amanda and Anthony were wonderful sitters. They took such good care of my 3 dogs and sent me pictures and updates and I could see the dogs enjoyed their company. I live on a property with other people and they raved about them and enjoyed getting to know them! I would absolutely have them again if their adventures bring them back this way! Stephanie

This was our second time hosting Cathi and David at our home, and we are so delighted once again by their care of our furry and feathery little family and home. They are delightful, conscientious, kind and everything wonderful. We hope to have them sit for us again and again! Eric and I highly recommend Cathi & David!

Sarah and Stan were wonderful. They were kind and loving to our dog, and even did some training with him! They also took great care of the house, and went above and beyond to launder their own towels and sheets and remake our bed. It was really nice to come home to, as our plane got in pretty late. Sarah sent pics and videos, and was super easy to communicate and coordinate with. We highly recommend them!

Was lovely having Kate stay over the long weekend! She was self-sufficient, attentive, and sent photos along the stay to let me know the pups were well! Would definitely look forward to having her again in the future!

Kim was fantastic! This turned out to be a house sit instead of a pet sit, but Kim was so flexible and responsible! We so appreciated how clean and spotless she left the house! We can’t wait to have her sit again.

Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Amanda was the perfect housesitter and pet sitter for our cat. She is organized and communicative, and took care to ensure she understood the guidelines for taking care of our home and our cat. She left our house in perfect condition and we returned home to one happy kitty! Would not hesitate to have Amanda housesit for us again or recommend her to others looking for a sitter.

Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.

Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!

Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.

Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.

Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month.  I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did.  Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why.   Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her.  I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love.   Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her).  She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants.  We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup.    Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet.  Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs.  I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁

Andrea was the perfect sitter for our older Italian Greyhound and our shy cat. 
She followed every request to a “t”, and helped us to feel comfortable and care 
free for a long zeewoi. The communication 
of photos and videos were a warm 
reminder of how well they had been adjusting to our absence. Andrea showed care and consistent compassion for Darcy and Hammy. 
She seemed to enjoy them and our home as much as us!
We returned to an absolutely spotless home, without anything left undone. She thought of everything related to us and our pets, so we could have a seamless late evening  return. 
We highly recommend Andrea for any zeewoi, as she is a jewel. Anyone looking for a “perfect” sitter would be lucky to have Andrea as a trustworthy, considerate and kind person to care for their pets and home.

Janis is absolutely the best pet sitter and home care we have had. She is a regular for us during our Christmas vacation because we totally trust her with the care of our three dogs and the management of our home. She is so good and efficient that I have already requested that she sits for us again next Christmas. Our three dogs absolutely adored her as she played fetch, took them on walks, loved and spoiled them. Management of our home was excellent. I had no concerns whatsoever as we had packages delivered and Mail that needed to be picked up. The house was in much better condition than what we left it. I highly recommend Janis and you will be fortunate to have her as your sitter.
