James and Sissi are the sweetest couple. Ready to help in any situation. Even ready to take on 15 newly acquired geese, and that's from having previous homestead experience (Steve did attack one which James calmly sorted out before we got back). Super tidy and very trustworthy, animals were happy and so were we! We will welcome them back and wish them safe travels :)

Elizabeth was an amazing petsitter for our little dog Molly. She sent us photos and updates throughout her stay so we always knew Molly was doing great. Elizabeth was very communicative before the sit and even offered to come a few days early to meet us and Molly. She was so friendly at we felt great about having her stay at our house. When we got home the house was so tidy and in great condition. I would absolutely recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a petsitter!!!

Liane and Wes looked after my Benee and home for almost six weeks. I couldn’t have asked for better housesitters. They kept me updated occasionally with pics and news of Benee which I appreciated. When I arrived home Benee was so happy and content, and had obviously had a wonderful time! My home was immaculate! Thank you Liane and Wes - Benee and I look forward to next time!

Marcus and Gina looked after our animals for 17 days while we went on holiday. They sent me photos every second day of my dog out on walks, this made me feel at ease knowing she was safe and happy. I also asked them to look after my cow, this was out of their comfort zone but they did a great job of feeding him twice a day. They left my house spotless. I would highly recommend them to others

I am writing this review because it looks as though I don’t rate them but the real reason is that they couldn’t come because we were all locked down last year and had to stay at home! Really wished I’d met them… I’m sure they would have been great! I give them five stars anyway 👍

Niall & Grace and their three kids took such great care of our house and especially our dogs. We can tell the dogs were loved and given lots of attention while we were away. We couldn't ask for more. The dogs even seemed a little sad the day after we returned, looking around the house for their new friends. Our small garden in the yard was still thriving after a week of extreme heat. The house was left spotless (again), ready for us to just climb into bed after a long day of travel. The thank-you notes signed by the whole family was a wonderful addition. They are all welcome back anytime.

Patience and Rory were absolutely fantastic house/pet sitters. It’s always quite daunting leaving your furry animal family to people you have just met but they made us feel instantly at ease and we were not worried the whole two weeks we were away. They were incredible and not phased when we have a few electrical issues with the house, which was great. The house was left in immaculate condition and all pets very happy. We would highly recommend them to anyone. They really are a very kind, caring and warm couple.

Sandy and Gary were great, very charming, helpful and loved the dogs, which is the most important thing to me. They kept us updated, off their own bat decided to do more watering because of the weather and Sandy even deadheaded the roses for me, for which I am really grateful. The house was left immaculate, towels were washed, bed stripped and everywhere hoovered. Many thanks Sandy. We would highly recommend them and would be delighted if they would come back.

This was our first time using a pet or house sitter and the bar set by Leslie is very high! She is warm, friendly, communicative, responsible and very clean. Upon arriving, she immediately bonded with our rat terrier, Oreo, by bringing him a new frisbee (his favorite toy/activity) and throwing it for him in our backyard.  Leslie has a sweet and mellow dog, Benny, who is now Oreo's new buddy! She kept my husband and I updated via texts/pictures of their daily activities, our house, and was proactive in asking questions before she left. She even dropped our dog off at the kennel for one night at the end of our trip since our flight was too late for us to get home for him!
Our home was clean and had fresh flowers from our garden that she put in vases for us! Such a simple and nice touch! 
We have asked Leslie to come back to sit for us again for 2 weeks in August. I'd highly recommend her to take care of your pet(s) and home too!

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!

Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.

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.

Felecia was an excellent sitter and perfect companion for Livi, our 3 yr old Aussie mix! She was always prompt with communication when needed, took great care of our pet and house and was just as clean coming home as we left it. I would not hesitate to recommend Felecia for other sits.

Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month.  I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!

Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.

Kuldip exceeded all the expectations we had from a Zeewoi. She took over from another sitter when we got stuck out of country due to a family emergency. A highly energetic person yet extremely organized, she easily matched the energy level of my 2-year-old Border Collie Pavo. She not only exercised him multiple times every day, but even him bought him new doggy toys and treats (much appreciated!). She got along very well with our neighbor and with their combined help Pavo got a much needed doggy bath!  With her by my dogs side we were worry-free and able to focus on our family needs.  

Lastly, she left a pleasant surprise when we came back home. Our home looked squeaky clean and beautifully organized. Kuldip is a gem of a pet sitter and we would love to have her back for our fur baby without any hesitation. I highly recommend her!

Neil and Anne have just sat for us for a second time, for a week. They are outstanding sitters in every way. Always punctual with communication and arrival. They both have responsible jobs and this is evident as they are both very organised. They care very much about the animals they look after. We were regularly sent updates, pictures and video clips of them, which is great to see when you are away. When we came home we were greeted by happy pets and an immaculately tidy house. We cannot recommend Neil and Anne enough. As far as we are concerned they are perfect housesitters! …...Hopefully they will come back and sit again soon!
