Susan and Clint are friendly, helpful and very competent. We were really happy to leave Elsa with them, confident that she was in good hands. It was great to meet them. We would recommend them highly and have them sit again.
Irene and I have been using zeewoi for almost 10 years and have always had a good experience but with Sean and Eva it was exceptional. From reading their application it was clear that they had taken time to read our listing and understand the requirements. We easily arranged a video call to and afterwards had no hesitation in confirming Sean and Eva for our 8 week sit. Near to the time of their arrival we confirmed the final arrangements and their having arrived in good time on a bright sunny day we handed over the pets, house and garden. During the walk round we were filled with confidence that we were leaving things in capable hands. The formalities complete we all sat down to have a relaxed late afternoon in the garden and an evening meal chatting away and getting to know each other. Sean and Eva are well travelled and have a wealth of stories to tell and are a great pair. While we were away we had no concerns. Sean contacted us on a couple of occasions about unexpected events but with some simple advice Sean and Eva resolved the issues independently. On our return home, (unfortunately Sean and Eva had left a little earlier in the day, as we knew they needed to) we were greeted with a clean and tidy house, happy cats and a tidy garden. To top it all off there was a plate of delicious fruit scones and dish of warming spiced pumpkin soup and fresh crusty bread! The following day I was astonished to find the wood and tool shed was neater and tidier than it had been for 26 years and that there was a large stack of wood for the winter which Sean had put there with the help of our good neighbour Keith. This couple went above and beyond and we can't thank them enough for the care and attention they gave while looking after our property and pets. We highly recommend them. Thank you so much and hopefully we will meet again. Warmest regards Martin and Irene Martin and Irene
