This was the second time Vanissar has looked after our home and elderly cat. If she was available every time we needed a sitter she would always be our first choice!

Eileen is amazing and I feel very lucky to have had her come stay at my place twice with Milly. She is funny, thoughtful, caring and very very tidy. She made me feel so comfortable that leaving my sweet cat and home in her hands was an easy decision to make...twice. I would be honoured to have her sit again, anytime!

Janine s a lovely, kind and gentle person. Communication with her was excellent. She left the house in perfect order. She washed the linens and remade the guest bed which was appreciated as I had a friend returning with me. Most of all Red the cat was happy and content when I got home. I would have Janine back in a heart beat. She’s completely reliable and trustworthy.

Jennie and Peter define 'professional pet/house sitters' to a T, yet raise their status to another stratosphere by being the most kind, respectful, thoughtful, creative and joy-filled people. They clearly communicated with us and settled into our home with ease, caring for our ginger feline so efficiently and affectionately, that upon our return, Simba showed signs of missing them, not us, ha!! The icing on the cake for us was the brilliant 'Cat-thedral' hang-out Jennie designed and made for Simba out of their Hello Fresh boxes. This will be a 'Jennie & Peter' souvenir for Simba for a long time! You will not be sorry choosing this wonderful couple as your pet/house sitters.

Darrell and Ted were here for a second time and it was again wonderful to have them take such great care of my home. They have family in Canmore so it works out well for all of us.

Mila and Gary were very organized and made sure they knew everything they needed for their stay. Our pets were well cared for and Mila made sure to email us daily updates along with photos. Gary even took care of a broken smoke detector located in the 12’ high ceiling of the master bedroom. Everything was clean and tidy when we returned and Mila followed up by checking on us after they left.

Margaret was easy to communicate with and loved our pets. There was a health issue with one of our dogs and we needed to know right away. We only found out after we had arrived home and our local vet was closed. This is the only reason that this review is not five stars because she and her partner were great sitters in all other aspects. I wish them good luck with their adventures on Vancouver Island in the future!

Lani is an excellent Pet Sitter and housesitter. Communication was easy, our pet Cleo appreciated her loving care. We came home to a relaxed and happy cat.
I would happily ask Lani to housesit again.

Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.

Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)

Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.

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!!

Carolina was a fantastic Pet sitter. From the beginning, it was straightforward to communicate with her. She met us before we left our trip and ensured she understood all the house and pet logistics. Luna and Cal were very comfortable with her and were best friends with her fast. She was very affectionate with them, and Luna and Cal loved her and were very happy with her. Carolina was very responsive and sent updates. She was really lovely and easy to communicate with. She was very respectful of our space and very tidy. She even washed the sheets and towels she used even when she didn’t need to. She put a lot of care into caring for Luna and Cal, and they looked very comfortable with her. Having Carolina as a pet sitter made our trip very easy, knowing our pets were cared for so well. We would love to have her back to sit for us again and highly recommend her.

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!

Amazing experience! Five stars all the way...

Nikki was kind enough to watch our two cats Thomas and Toby while were away on our honeymoon. From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with clear communication and quick replies. Since she was local in Atlanta we got to meet her ahead of time and hand off keys before we left. While we were away she sent pictures of our little buds having fun and being themselves, so we always knew they were ok. She always showed up exactly when she said she would from pickup to dropoff and it was so incredible to know they were in good hands, and we never had to worry. They love being around people so for her to have been able to stay with them and love on them regularly we came home and could immediately tell both Thomas and Toby felt great as they were completely comfortable. Much much different than when we leave even for a few days and have a pet sitter stop by and feed them. She asked all the necessary questions in advance, so she didn't have to email or ask anything while we were away.

She even took the time to make sure everything was neat and tidy, prepped the sheets to be changed, and was unbelievably sweet to get us a wedding gift we both love. 

Nikki we can't thank you enough for taking care of our cats, and we would only be so lucky if you stuck around town! :)
