Pet Sitters in East Cowes

Sandie

Thanks Sandie and Sam for another sit for us. All went well and I'm grateful that you are so reliable and tidy, very kind of you to leave milk for our return and to have left everything ready for us to just come back home and unpack!

Sue & John

Sue and John certainly delivered as trusted, capable and reliable house sitters. We established good communications prior to our house sit and they turned up on time. This was much appreciated as we got ready for our trip. They looked after our house well and on departure left it neat and tidy for our return. We were grateful for the small touches such as making sure the beds were made and laundry done, especially as they had their own travel schedule to attend to. Our two cats Floki and Isla enjoyed their company and care. Whilst we were away Sue and John sent regular updates to keep in touch which set our minds at ease and enabled us to enjoy our time away. Thank you very much Sue and John.

Janey

Wow what can I say about Janey - other than she deserves 10 stars and we feel like we have made a new friend. She was perfect in every way and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her - our pets miss her already and we've only just waved her off. We do hope she will stay in touch and she is welcome here anytime, not just for house/pet sitting but as a guest. Thank you Janey for everything. Wishing you safe onward travels and we hope we see you again soon xx

Bernie

Bernie was a great pet sitter, she turned up on time, asked questions about the animals and was friendly and relaxed with them. We returned home to a tidy house and a nice wee note.

Nicola

Nicola was fantastic, great communication. She kept us up to date on how things were going and how Pepper was which was much appreciated. Would not hesitate to have Nicola sit for us again.

Carole Stephanie & Teresa

Steph and Teresa looked after our dog Amber for three weeks whilst we were away. They looked after her and our house beautifully, keeping in touch and sharing lots of pics of Amber on some fantastic walks. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

Sarah

Sarah and Leigh were the perfect pet sitters. They adored Hugo and kept us posted daily with pictures and text messages. They walked him daily and on one occasion even took him kayaking! The house was immaculate on our return and they’d also managed to keep our plants alive during the autumn heatwave. I’d have no hesitation in asking Sarah and Leigh to housesit again for Hugo.

Susan & Martin

Susan & Martin we’re all you could wish for in Sitter. Susan left the house really clean and tidy. Even swept up and tidied the garden. Something I hadn’t had the time for before leaving. They prepared a lovely snack lunch for our arrival home and cooked an evening meal for us all. Our pet looked good, happy and content and was obviously fond of Susan and Martin. I was happy with their communication with us throughout our stay abroad. Not too much, not too little and always to the point if they were concerned about something. They coped well with mains water loss and a recalcitrant TV control system. I will be very happy for them to sit again in the future. Patrick & Malgosia

Alena

Alena helped us out on very short notice and was absolutely amazing. She made time to come and meet the animals before the sit and took excellent care of them and our home. I would highly recommend her.

Faith & Alun

Faith was excellent in responding to any messages both ahead of our trip and during it. We received regular updates and photos which provided us with a great deal of reassurance as it was our first time using this service. We have to admit we were nervous about inviting strangers into our home to look after our much loved Harley. But we need not have worried as it was obvious Harley was happy, well exercised and looked after. As well as looking after Harley, Faith and her family looked after our home very well. They cleaned it for our return, stripping the beds and cleaned all the laundry ahead of our return. They even left us the milk and bread for our return. If you’re new to zeewoi like us and nervous, you can rely on Faith and her family to look after you pet and home, we would love to use them again.

Adam

Adam and Anna were absolutely brilliant! From the moment I met them it was clear they were going to do a brilliant job. Anna took extensive notes on everything I told and showed them, which put my mind at rest straight off as we were leaving them with a flock of sheep, hens, 2 dogs that need lots of exercise and a house which is has it's idiosyncrasies... they coped with everything. I can't recommend them more highly and hope that they will be able to come back again. Many thanks Anna and Adam!

Sydney

This was the third or fourth time that Syd has sat for us and it is always a joy to know she is here. Max adores her. She took good care of everything, was flexible and generous with her time and left the house in great shape.

Mark

What a great housesit experience! Mark and Amanda were well organized and their home and garden were so well maintained too.Hattie, the Chocolate Labrador was equally welcoming and great company. She was very ready for a walk and happy to chill too. She stole my heart with her little dance as the food appeared in her bowl at supper time. 
     The location is stunning too. It’s very near to Haslemere town and makes visiting further afield like London and Portsmouth easy. Fabulous walks from the door and deer and pheasants next door! 
      We had an amazing week here and loved every minute. So blessed to have been chosen! Mark and Amanda also have lovely helpful neighbours which made the sit particularly relaxing. We would recommend visiting Petworth House and Gardens and The National Trust’s The Devil’s Punchbowl for additional walks but this place is a walker’s paradise! 
  Many thanks, Mark and Amanda. Hope you need us again soon!

Amy

Amy's little home is located in an awesome neighborhood.  I loved walking Fiona and looking at the entire area's architecture, greenery, and flowers. 
Fiona was a new rescue when I came to sit, and she is an awesome little dog. Super intelligent and loving and the newest greeter in the neighborhood. Being able to go into that huge yard with a short fence where she can greet everyone during the day is a dream come true for a sociable puppy. Fiona is really living her best life. 
Fiona's tummy was still adjusting to the higher quality of food while I was there, and some additional dog proofing was needed given how smart and determined she is, but Amy was super responsive and adores her new pup, and I am sure both of those issues will be resolved in no time.

Doug

Doug, Viv & Zeta welcomed me into their home as an honoured guest and I left as a friend. They’re friendly, considerate with a wealth of life & travel experiences and are very interesting. I value their friendship.

The house & guest rooms are warm, comfortable and secure. Situated in Coleford & surrounded by the Forest of Dean is ideally suited to explore this wonderful part of Britain with the Wye & Severn Valley on your doorstep and The Brecon Beacons & Cotswolds easily accessible.
Zita is an adorable bundle of energy and loves to explore. She travels well and was happy to stay in the car when I needed to pop into shops etc.
I highly recommend this house sit and would happily return.
Many thanks Doug, Viv & Zeta for providing me with this wonderful experience.
PS Zeta, if you ever want to leave home I’ll come and get you 🤣.
