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.

Bob and Edie were wonderful with Maggie.  She was healthy and happy when I arrived home.  The house was in excellent shape.  I wish I would have had more time to get to know them better.  I would not hesitate recommending them for your furry family.  Hope to see them again someday.

Christina was a great sitter, keeping in touch before and during the sit to keep me updated & to let me know how things were going at home. I felt confident that Christina was taking good care of my home & Nala my cat & was grateful to her for taking care of things like the bins etc as this was a longer sit. Thank you Christina for being a fab sitter!

Roxy & her Mr. Cat (Watson) are the best!! Great historic house in the most beautiful neighborhood in Orlando. Brent is a super nice guy and easy to communicate with. Roxy is a perfect princess and she will walk you to all the neat spots around downtown.  I truly enjoyed the stay & recommend it to others!
