We were absolutely delighted to meet and have Del and Christopher care for Izzy, the fish and our home whilst we were away. They stayed in touch. Our home was exactly as it was when we left and most importantly our Izzy was happy and not stressed when we arrived home. I’d have these guys back in a heartbeat! Thank you again

My Adventure Continues
Glenda is such a lovely Lady and gave 200%pet care and house care.. she was kind enough to cook me a meal on my return and she’s so easy to get on with .. I would recommend her to pet/ house sit anytime and hope when she’s back in the Uk she will look me up🤗
Rick & Ingrid
The Pocket, Australia
It makes us so happy to be able to care for pets in their own home.
Five Stars all the way and they are all well-deserved <3 This is the second sit with Rick and Ingrid and I cannot recommend these two enough! They are the Perfect Sitters - they cuddle and love my cats, they send me periodic updates (and great photos!), they are responsible and self-sufficient. I know that if there is a question, they won't hesitate to ask. But only after trying to find the answer first themselves. My only regret is that they live on the other side of the world from me, so getting them over for more frequent sits can be difficult. If you can get Rick and Ingrid in your application pile, just go ahead and confirm the sit. You won't be disappointed!

Trustworthy , experienced couple to look after your pets and home.
I had Sheila and Ian stay for a long weekend to look after my two kitties. They were the perfect house minders and sent regular updates about the cats. I felt confident my cats and the house were being looked after, which allowed me to enjoy my time away. The house was immaculate on my return. Thanks Sheila. You would be welcome back any time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Happy dog, clean & tidy home. Helen and Dennis were perfect sitters. They were quick to respond to messages and kept in touch throughout the stay. It was great to receive photos of our dog and little updates each day. Our home was spotless when we got back. Helen and Dennis went out of their way to help us out and also work with our dogs need for a constant companion. A great couple who obviously enjoy looking after a variety of dogs and other animals. Thanks so much Helen & Dennis 🐾✨
Michelle

Responsible and caring petsitters
Brett and Michelle are probably the closest thing you can get to perfect cat sitters. They followed all my instructions (which I had plenty of) to a tee, and the flat was left immaculate. I had a cat who is quite skittish around strangers, and they had her playing and hanging out with them right away - which was incredible. I came home to four happy spoiled cats and a nice vegan breakfast. I could not recommend them highly enough!

Older Remote Workers with a Passion for the Outdoors - Perfect Pet Companions
Belinda and Nigel exceeded our expectations. We initially met on a video chat and we immediately knew they would be perfect. They were friendly, communicative and responsible. They offered and stayed over the night before our trip so they could meet us, our 1 year old pup, Noodle, and get the lay of the land. They took her for walks, sent loads of pup-dates and even provided learning consistency and a bit of training for Noodle! We felt so comfortable leaving our home and pup in their capable hands. Nigel and Noodle really bonded which was super sweet. We’ve now decided to start planning our holidays around Nigel and Belinda’s availability! They really are the best!
Phil
The Pocket, Australia
Your experienced and reliable home and pet carers.
Phil and Diane were great sitters. Communication was good from start to finish. The dogs settled well with them both straight away which is always a relief! There was a problem with Enzo not eating when we first left but with a few messages between us, we managed to sort that out and all was good. The dogs were very well looked after and the house was clean and tidy when we returned. You can't ask more than that and we would thoroughly recommend Phil and Diane. We do hope they can sit for us again in the future. Thank you both!

Kate was an absolute dream and was the best pet sitter I could have possibly asked for! Kate was extremely trustworthy, communicative, and reliable, and provided frequent updates while I was away. She left my apartment spotlessly clean and even took the initiative to fix my wobbly towel bar. Finally, Kate took excellent care of my cat Daisy and I came home to a happy and content cat! Kate was amazing all around and I would be thrilled to have her sit for me again at any time. Thanks for everything!
Lynn
Another amazing sit by Anna and her lovely family - our cocker spaniel Holly has had the best fortnight with these guys with lots of adventures and endless amounts of love and attention! Highly recommend as 5-star house and pet sitters - thank you Anna - hope to see you again!
Katrina
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
Robert & Rebecca
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!
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Peggy
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!!

Duncan was an excellent pet sitter and looked after our old girl Cookie really well.
Molly
Kelly took excellent care of my cats, Bertie and Jewel. She reported that nervous and shy Jewel even licked her hand! She sent occasional photos and updates about the cats, which I really appreciated, and she emailed/texted me when there were questions. At the end of her stay, Kelly and I had a conversation that was helpful to me, as this was my first zeewoi experience, and I'm still learning how to best welcome sitters to my cats and house. She gave me some excellent ideas about how to streamline the "welcome guide" I leave for folks. I really appreciate her insight as an experienced pet- and house-sitter. It's reassuring to know that she places a priority on pet health and happiness!

Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. Well done Jacob.

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
