Lisa, first, I am very sorry for taking longer than I said to write this review (1 week and I went a little over...my apologies!), but it was very busy when I returned. Now for my review: I booked Lisa from my gut reaction to her first email and then subsequent ones. She did not have any reviews at the time, but after reading SO many profiles and holding out for that "one special one", I was glad I did hold out. Lisa is a hidden gem in zeewoi, because while experienced with animals, she was just starting out on here when she applied to keep my little Molly while I was away in Antarctica. Lisa was amazing. Her communication was timely and very thorough. It was evident that she and my dog bonded very fast. Due to COVID and the Antarctica cruise I was on, there were a lot of hurdles (covid testing) to pass to even get on the ship. This put a lot of uncertainty toward this trip on the front ends and back ends of it. However, Lisa strived to accommodate the uncertainties, if they came to pass. Luckily, it all went perfectly and we had the time of our lives. I could not have taken this trip without the assurance she gave me. There wasn't a lot of communication during our trip b/c, well...we were at the bottom of the Earth! However, when I returned, I did find detailed updates on Molly, along with some photos. Molly got so many walks and I do feel that Molly was even a bit sad after the newness of me coming back home wore off. It was as if she was still waiting to see if Lisa walked through the front door a few times. I am very thankful to have met Lisa, and if she has applied for your sit, give her a chance, even if she still doesn't have the most reviews like some profiles have after a few years. Everyone has to start somewhere, and I knew to trust my gut with her. Lisa, if you ever want to return to Nashville, just let me know and I'll try to be out of town again! ;) haha. I also talked to Mitch about getting a future THSitter for him, as well.....where both our dogs would stay together at HIS house. Believe me...you would LOVE his house on the lake. It's incredible! :) You'll be the first I contact for our next travels, if you think you ever want to return here....but who knows when that might be, given these stinkin' gas prices now, right? Well, all the best to you! Thank you for a wonderful sit. I hope you get all sits that you hope for in the future!

Traci was very accommodating, communicative and worked within our schedule.  Based on the pic of our greyhound Enzo chilling on the back porch, he clearly wanted to be with her.  The house was as clean as we'd left it.

Jenny did an awesome job. It’s so nice to be able to go on a vacation and know that your dog and house are well taken care of. From the time she walked in, she made sure that she had a small bag of Pupperoni treats to greet Leo who met her at the door in my arms. Since Leo usually will bark his head off at strangers this did not happen with Jenny because she "bribed" him with the treat. Leo was literally playing with Jenny on the floor and was eager to show off his tricks for more treats!! They quickly bonded and they had a great time together the entire time we were out as was evidenced by the pictures, videos and text messages that she updated us with daily. She even send us a link with all the pictures and videos she took with Leo. She also took excellent care of our house and all the tasks we needed done like putting out the trash and recycling, checking our mail and turning off the sprinkler system as we had a thunderstorm here the day we left. She even washed Leo as he gets dirty while walking outside especially after the rain or sprinklers in yards in our neighborhood. He smelled so clean!! Jenny also made sure the entire house was clean and washed all the linen she used during her stay. We can truly say we couldn't have asked for more and she went over and beyond what we expected.

Michael was wonderful. He is kind and intentional. The pups immediately were drawn to his calm energy. They absolutely loved him! It was a privilege to meet Michael and have him in my home. Recommend 100%! Thank you, Michael!

I loved my time at Eja’s house! The kitties were adorable and so easy to take care of. Elio was definitely the playful one and was always purring to me and showing me his belly to get some cuddling time. Lucy was very chatty and was always jumping on me to get some affection. They were both well-behaved and lovely cats!
The apartment is located in a very nice area with many transport connections. And the vibe was so warm and cozy. I loved the style of the rooms and you can feel that Eja and Mads put a lot of dedication and love into making their place a lovely home.
The communication was great since the beginning and they were both very friendly and easygoing. Would love to meet them again and their kitties :)
Thanks for everything!
