I have not been looking forward to writing this review for Irene and Henry. Because I was not looking forward to be reminded of the turmoil we went through while they were sitting house for us. Irene and Henry had signed up to stay in our home and with our dogs for 9,5 weeks. They knew it was winter in Germany, one of the first things we asked them, if they knew how dark and gray it is and that it can be cold. They had no problem with that. 2 weeks into the sit they said they could not walk our dogs twice a day any more, only once - since they were too tired. They asked for help with the second walk, which we then organized from abroad. Also after two weeks they said, they would have to cut the sit short and would be leaving our home 4,5 weeks early. We should start looking for a replacement. This came as such a shock to us, that at first we refused a replacement. With time and the loving support of the zeewoi staff we started looking for a replacement. Of course there was no one there on such short notice. The hours we spent dealing with finding someone new - this is nothing anyone should have to go through. In the end a friend took our dogs when Irene and Henry left our house and their sit early. Irene and Henry sent us pictures and comments about our dogs regularly. Our house was as clean as when we left it. The plants were well. We were contemplating leaving the zeewoi Community after this painful experience. Our trust was shaken. But, we decided to stay and remember the first two perfect experiences we had with our other sitters, whom we still are in touch with and feel loving and close with.

We had a great experience with Keith and Tiara.  We had a nice video chat, and had texts before the visit.  They sent videos of the cats during our time away, and a video of the house just before leaving.  Everything was left in great order.  Recommended!

Top notch! Jocelyn was adored by our fur family and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with a sitter. 

She is not only a lovely person, but she took a true interest in caring for our pets and home. We initially chose her for this sit because she has a pet first aid cert. 

We received a photo and regular updates while away. She saw something that needed tending to in our pool and reached out to us to helped with it.  Wonderful!

She is super reliable and we would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible sitter for their home and/or pets.

If Jocelyn applies for your sit, with or without Dennis, I would jump at the chance! You can leave your home assured that everything will be a-okay.  Thank you Jocelyn.

If I could give GT more than 5-Stars I would! She took care of our puppers while we were away and our home. She sent great updates and pics. She made sure they were cared for right to the moment we came home. GT went above and beyond. Even made our bed and had the Christmas Tree on to give us a warm welcome home.
