Steven, Judith and their daughters Rose and Esther were wonderful house sitters. We communicated well from the very beginning and had daily updates during our time away. On our return, the house was beautifully clean and tidy. Judith had baked a delicious apple pie to welcome us home. The girls took on responsibilities for the chickens and ducks as well as the honesty box at the top of the drive. Steven did a great job in the garden. He picked all of our apples that would otherwise have fallen in the windy conditions and rescued our crop of carrots from marauding rabbits. The lawns were also nicely mowed. This had been a rather challenging house sit for various reasons. Firstly, our beloved Rosie had sadly died just a few weeks before they came. Una was therefore on her own so she enjoyed walks and lots of loving attention. Secondly, one of horses, Cubley, developed a sore hind foot just a few days before the house sit which necessitated both Blue and Cubley being on stable rest throughout the house sit. Even though this was an unexpected level of responsibility, they took on the challenge willingly and coped well in the circumstances. Finally, we had been having some unresolved issues with the heating system. Steven showed initiative and contacted the heating engineers independently. Given these unexpected issues, Steven, Judith and their girls were wonderful and took everything on board as far as they could. We are sorry that they had more responsibilities than originally agreed and hope that this did not detract from their experience. We would certainly welcome them back to our home at a time when hopefully circumstances are back to normal.

We hit the jackpot with David and Wendy!!!  I can not say enough positive things about them!!!  

First of all, this was our first time using zeewoi and it could not have worked out more perfectly.  Within 2 minutes of our video call, I knew that David and Wendy would take good care of our home and our dog.  They are very personable and well traveled.  You can tell they are a dynamic duo - it comes across on video and they are just as authentic and genuine in person. 

They came over the day prior and spent an hour learning about the house and Wendy even brought Dutch a treat.  (My neighbor met them and said that we lucked out, Wendy was the  Mary Poppins of dogs.)

The day we were leaving, they came over 30 minutes before we headed to the airport so Dutch wasn't alone when we left and it was an easy handoff.  He didn't care that we were leaving.  he was already at ease with them.  They were prompt and extremely helpful as we got out the door.

They sent us photos and updates during their stay and when we got home, it was as if we never left. . . it possibly even looked better!  It was tidy and super clean!  No dog hair anywhere and they washed the towels and sheets.

I really can't say enough about Wendy and David.  I will absolutely ask them to watch Dutch again.  Know that your home and pet are in good hands with Wendy and David!

Sitting for Sarah was lovely. Her darling feline, Mr. Snooks, is such a sweet lap cat. He gets a daily dose of medication, but he’s quite tolerant with it — especially if it’s followed up with catnip! Sarah’s apartment is ideally situated in the North Beach area of San Francisco, directly across from a Lyft bike station and multiple transportation options for those without a car. Many thanks for the hospitality, Sarah!

I thoroughly enjoyed looking after Marios and Kira. The dogs are sweeties and we enjoyed some lovely walks on the beach and in the local parks. They loved being outside and were great company throughout the sit. They both have a kind and sweet nature and were absolutely no trouble to look after. The house is conveniently located near the beach and parks and is just a short walk from the town centre so getting around was extremely easy. Communication with Nina and Philip was good before and during the sit and I had a perfect understanding of my responsibilities. We didn't have the chance to meet unfortunately but they explained everything very well over the phone and settling in was easy and there were no problems whatsoever.
Housesitting for them was a lovely experience and I hope I'll get the opportunity to return again in the future.

I was very happy to housesit for Craig and his family. My room was very nice and cosy. The area is really nice for visits and tours. And of course I love the animals. If I am around, I would go housesit again.

We loved 'Sitting' for this delightful family! Our Hostess, Shauna, was not only quick and very informative with all communication but extremely friendly and courteous; as we hit a heatwave for our appointment, she was very honest about comfort and comfort facilities. The canine pooch trio, 'Emerson', 'Tanner' and the wee black power jet, 'Gilbert', were entertaining, fun and great company whom we really enjoyed being with and caring for! They are very easy going and low maintenance and absolutely no trouble at all. We quickly became extremely fond of all of them. The cosy home is well situated for shopping, walks and trail exploring with a easy to manage, contained front garden. A very pleasant appointment!

Morris, what a lovely cat! Brilliantly affectionate and independent in equal measures. The flat was lovely too, nice and spacious and a short walk to the sea. Margaret was organised and welcoming - Thank you for letting us look after your lovely cat and home!

We absolutely loved spend time with Hendrix ! We are both in love with him! Such a joyful, playful and sweet young boy! He will always be up for playing with you so you might just have to hide his balls, toys sometimes just to give him a rest and also for you to chill.
Once he is tired will love to lie down near you. If you are happy about it he will also come in bed with you at night. You are free to close the door and he will sleep in his own bed in the living room. Personally my partner and I loved to wake up with him lying between us and he is so cuddly in the morning ❤️
Alizee is a wonderful person with a joyful, welcoming and warm personality and we got along with her really well. As a host she was super kind and communication was always direct and fluent. Her flat is not very big but felt like home straight away! The kitchen is super furnished and with lots of spices and tools for cooking if you are into that. Lots of beautiful plants around the house and garden and a very cozy bedroom ! Also the garden is very cute. She has great taste and creativity and you can see that reflected in her flat. The area is quite good too and very close to Camden Town and beautiful Hampstead Heath 

We can’t wait to be able to spend some more time with Hendrix !! 
Highly reccomended
