Elizabeth kept us regularly updated on activities with the dogs, including videos and pictures. In general she was excellent and proactive with all of her communication. We came home to a very clean and tidy house, but more importantly two very content and relaxed dogs! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anybody looking for a reliable sitter.

Jamie was a fantastic sitter! Before I left, we met twice to discuss my cats’ care. They had clearly read my instructions carefully and had a ton of relevant experience. During the sit, Jamie sent daily updates and pictures. I have a cat with health issues - they sent regular updates regarding his health, administered medication as needed, and checked in when they had questions. The cats clearly took to them quickly. I came back to happy and healthy pets and an apartment that was cleaner than when I left. I’d highly recommend Jamie!

Anna was a fantastic sitter. She was a great communicator both before and during the stay, and I got lots of great updates with pictures and videos while I was gone. The house was left spotless. Would love to have Anna stay again.

Sharon is very organised and it was an easy job to set the first meeting between her and the cats. Sharon sent me photos and anecdotes daily and if she had any doubts about the cats behaviour she would ask me by message. Her messages were always sweet and full of details, which I really appreciated. I knew my cats and my apartment were in good hands and with the most reliable person. I returned to a clean apartment - cleaner that when I left even if she would probably deny it :-) - and to happy cats who, I could see it in their eyes, were wondering why the lady was not staying longer with them ! I highly recommend Sharon and hope to have her return in the future.

Michelle and Rob were wonderful, beyond words. We totally enjoyed spending some time with them before the 'sit'. They were relaxed, vibrant, grounded, conscientious and very responsible human beings. They were attentive to details and left the house perhaps the CLEANEST it has ever been (including when we are here). Their communication was great and the cats were very well cared for. We trusted them completely and we would not hesitate (and will reach out) to have them come again.

Amy did a great job caring for our home and pets last week. Everything was in good order when we returned. Both the barn and house were very clean and tidy, and she helped reorganize my pantry (which was in rough shape after significant entertaining over the holidays.) Even with the cold temperatures and snowfall, she was able to keep up with the outdoor chores and manure management in the paddocks. Skipper, Apollo and Riba enjoyed all the extra attention she gave them. It was also very nice to be welcomed back with a bag of groceries that we enjoyed over a couple of days. Thanks Amy! It was great to travel worry free!

Lisa and Mitch just completed a second sit with our dog, Tinsley, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Because she was in their capable hands, we did not worry about her for a minute and were able to enjoy a carefree vacation. Communication before and during the sit was wonderful, and we appreciated Lisa's frequent updates and photos of a happy Tinsley enjoying her time with them. When we returned, the house was spotless and our dog was obviously well looked after. Lisa and Mitch are a delightful couple, and we are happy that our paths crossed. We highly recommend them as wonderful and zeewoi!

Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden.  The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom.  Already scheduled a second sit!  If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you!
The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!

Not only did Krista take great care of our cat while we were away, she left the house cleaner than she found it. She also kept in touch with occasional photos and videos of kitty antics, which gave me peace of mind that the cat was well-cared for. We definitely recommend her as a house and pet sitter and would ask her again in the future!

Sharon was a fantastic sitter for our week away! She left the house as tidy and clean as we left it, including changing the sheets for our arrival. I truly cannot even tell she was here and that made coming home after a long travel day so much easier.

She was communicative every step of the way and provided daily updates on our cat with photos. We knew our home and pet were in good hands! I would gladly welcome Sharon back any time should we be so lucky : )

Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!

We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs.

From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands.

Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! 

We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. 

Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

Janis is a wonderful person and also an incredible sitter -- we were very, very fortunate that she agreed to care for our beloved pets and rural log home for 3 days.  We were confident that everything would be perfect – and it was.  We returned to a home as clean and ordered as we had left it, inside and out.  All plants were thriving; outdoor hanging baskets were blooming profusely.  Most importantly, our beloved dog and 4 cherished cats had obviously been lovingly and attentively cared for.  The koi were also active and happy.  

Janis is a “cat whisperer”.  She is especially skilled and patient with shy felines, so we truly appreciated her patience and caring for our sweet Angie (with a semi-feral background).  Janis immediately understood that Angie, despite her reclusiveness, craves affection and was able to start to earn her trust even with such limited time. 

Among Janis’ many gifts: she is a talented photographer and delighted us with frequent updates and photos of our furry children.  They are so beautiful that we, with her kind permission, plan to include several in our zeewoi profile. 

Janis’ communications, reliability, self-sufficiency, and punctuality were exemplary, start to finish.  We made a wonderful new friend and have already invited her back to sit again.  If you are privileged enough to ever have Janis sit we are certain that you will be as delighted and happy as we are.

Judith was one of the most considerate, trustworthy sitters we've ever had. We had to leave in a rush for a family emergency and really didn't have time to prepare the house as we usually do, but Judith took all in stride, leaving the apartment spotless. She sent photos of Baby Boo and Janet on arrival, putting us immediately at ease because it was so obvious the cats were completely comfortable, zero stress, allowing us to relax that they were in such good hands. She sent photos and video every day, which delighted us, confident that they were getting next level care. Judith would take care of anyone's home and pets with as much care as she did at ours, and we highly recommend. Hope she can come back!!

Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat.  He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care.  Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy.  I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!
