Dog Sitters in Appledore

Lottie & Jay

Connor house sat for us for 2 weeks in June with his girlfriend. This is not Lottie who features in his profile, which I suggested at the time he should update but see that this has not been done yet. There was a bit of a misunderstanding about dates at the end which meant we had to come home a day early, which fortunately was not a problem for us, and I sometimes had to prompt for daily updates. Otherwise Connor seems mature and responsible, our pets were well looked after and the house was clean on our return.

Hilary & David

This was our very first time inviting house sitters to look after our 2 lovely but often boisterous bengal cats. So we were a little unsure going into it how things would work out. But right from the start during our initial pre-sit conversation with Hilary she put our minds at rest. Being obviously very experienced and caring in looking after cats. Before the sit, Hilary was great at communication with suggestions to help us improve our Welcome Guide. And asked questions to make sure they fully understood the cats needs. And during the sit, Hilary and David messaged us every day with news of how they were getting on and sent lovely photos of our cats and their interaction with them. The cats clearly were very relaxed in their company even allowing tummy grooming! We were away for a week and were delighted to return to 2 very happy cats and a lovely tidy house. Hilary and David are very caring, reliable and diligent sitters and we would have no hesitation in recommending them to look after your cats in the future.

Claire

Claire looked after our 2 dogs brilliantly. We returned to a very tidy house and 2 very happy dogs. Would definitely recommend Claire!

Leslie & Suzanne

Les, Suzanne, Alexander and Oliver were brilliant. This is the first time we have used Zeewoi and so really weren’t sure what to expect of the whole experience. From start to finish it was great. We felt very at ease with Les, Suzanne and the boys from an initial phone call to meeting them face to face. Our dog Major seemed very happy with everyone and we were provided with updates and photos whilst we were away which really put our minds are ease. 100% recommend Les and family, total peace of mind. Thank you.

Frances

It was Frances' second sit for me and she was lovely again. She keeps the house clean and tidy. She also takes care of the cats how i asked her to. Conscientious about the feeding and litter boxes. Communication was seamless. I'll definitely ask her to sit for me a 3rd time. :-)

Aron

Aron and Karen were excellent sitters, arriving punctually the morning before our departure. They dealt efficiently with the added and unforeseen problem that Feather was in season, requiring lead walks for the first week of their stay. They seemed to bond immediately with Feather and were there to greet us on our return at a very early hour, having left their room stripped and towels already in the machine! Thank you for looking after Feather so well and I’m sorry that the weather wasn’t better for you!

Claire

Claire was fantastic. She sat for Ziggy for 2 nights and Ziggy loved it. Very easy to organise our sit, I felt really confident that Ziggy was safe and well while she as with Claire and our house was really well taken care of. I really appreciated Claire's photo and video updates to let me know how Ziggy was getting on. I would highly recommend Claire 🙂

Angela

Angela is a lovely lady and a perfect house sitter. She is very calm and organised and self sufficient. Marley had a great time whilst Angela was staying and he accompanied her on trips out (and I was sent photos) and he was very well on my return. Angela took great care of my home and everything was as I’d left it. I hope she will be available to sit for me again - I have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

Adrian and Dee

We were so lucky that Adrian and Dee were able to look after our home and pets. The house was in a better condition than when we left and the dog and cat are still missing them. They even left a Welcome Pack for when we returned. They were a delight to have here and would be very welcome back. Thank you

William

William and Sophie were great and we would highly recommend them to look after anyones pets and house. They were great at getting in touch before the sit and arrived on time and were very friendly to our young labrador and interested in what she needed and how we wanted her routine to be etc. We returned to a happy dog and tidy house and so were delighted and felt the house and our dog had been in great hands.

Dawn & Phil

We were so delighted with Dawn and Phil, the animals were clearly well looked after when we got back. Can recommend.

Liz & Andy

What a great sit from Liz and Andy! Great communication and Wilf was looked after as if he was their own dog. I know that he went wherever they went which was lovely of them and meant that Wilf wasn't left on his own for too long as he is still coping with the loss of our other dog. House was spotless on our return. Really hope they are able to sit for us again in the future.

Alicia

If you’re considering accepting Linda for your house sit - let this review be the reason you do! I really can’t thank Linda enough! Linda was the first person I had found on this app and from start to finish she was so professional and reliable. We invited her back for another sit and I was so relieved when she was available the second time due to how seamless the previous sit had been! Expect to receive detailed daily updates and photos while you are away - this definitely takes the worry away from how your beloved pets are going when you are away. 

Linda went above and beyond with doing things for us and our kitties out of good faith. She truly has a good heart and I am grateful I found her. 

Thanks so much again Linda, the babies are missing you ❤️

Mira

Allyson and Jason are great! They are very responsive, super responsible and so helpful. I do not hesitate to have them pet and house sit for us.

Rebekah

Brent and Susan were a perfect choice for us! They arrived on time and were patient with us NOT leaving on time. Our RV was packed and ready to leave. Upon testing the systems, the leveling jack pump burned out. We ended up waiting at the house 2 weeks to get the part in and get it fixed at an RV dealership. Our trip home was in a tropical storm 1 week EARLY. When we arrived home Susan was cooking dinner for us! They were scheduled to house sit 8 weeks and it ended up being 5 with all of us here at the house.
Susan and Brent were gracious and diligent (still took care of the cats/birds and plants) after we made it home, until they left.
We certainly got to know each other. Shared plenty of meals and played games together.
The grand cats knew them by the time we left and probably could have cared less that we were even gone. After we returned the cats continued to “hang out” and sleep with Brent and Susan. They “returned to us” after they left. Now I think they are just making do until Brent and Susan return.
Susan was great with following up with me with cute photos. She forwarded our mail to us once (as requested) and sent photos of other pieces that came in to inquire if we wanted it forwarded or set aside. She even sorted my daughters mail that at present also comes to our house.
We left a $100 VISA gift card should they need anything for the cats or house, and I came home to itemized receipts of what was used.
We will be gone 4-6 months this summer and have already ask them to return.
Thanks for your sweet note on the dresser Susan and the great job you guys did.
