This was the first sit I’ve ever had to end early. A couple days in, I received a call from my neighbor that my very mild-mannered dog broke through the fence to get out of the back yard. She’s never done anything like that before, so I was worried about what happened and looked over some security footage. I wasn’t able to determine a specific incident, but I did find some disturbing footage where she was clearly nervous around Annette. It also showed that there had been an unauthorized guest earlier in the sit, my garage doors had been left open until my neighbor came over and closed them (after telling Annette and then she still didn’t close hem herself?), my home-office which is explicitly off-limits had been entered, and backyard footage showed the hot tub had been turned up and left open for an extended time, so a lot of the water had evaporated and there were leaves and oils and needed a full cleanup upon return. A friend was able to come over and check the house after it was vacated and she found the hot tub was left full blast and the large window in the back of the house was left unlocked. Upon my return, I also found Annette had eaten her way through my fridge, freezer, and pantry as well as taken full bottles of shampoo/conditioner/soap and full rolls of toilet paper from the guest bathroom. I provide hospitality items for all guests and sitters and I’m generally ok with sitters having guests or having some snacks from the house, but these are things people ask about first and the sheer volume of items taken/consumed in just a couple of days was alarming. Throughout all of this, Annette’s communication *seemed* coherent and considerate, which makes it even more worrying that all this other stuff was secretly happening. It makes me nervous to think of what I don’t know about.

This was our third time having Shantá come for a long-term sit with our two kitties, who have now decided Shantá is officially part of the family. They absolutely adore her, just like we humans do! We have such tremendous peace of mind knowing our two babies are in such caring and efficient hands. We couldn't recommend Shantá enough!

We cannot thank Phil and Donna enough for all their help with Olive whilst we were away.As soon as they arrived they were friendly and helpful especially as they had just experienced the terror attack in London hours previously not a good welcome to the UK.We could not have left Olive in better hands.The garden and house were immaculate on our return and flowers were in our rooms and they had also prepared for us a welcome home barbecue.We might add a supper for eight as our friends who we had been away with and our respective son and daughter came too. They also invited our daughter to supper twice whilst we were away and she too very much enjoyed their company.When they left we felt like we had made close friends.A happy,kind, generous and friendly couple who we would not hesitate to recommend to anyone else.A wonderful first time experience of using zeewoi. Olive fully recommends them too!

This is the first time I have used a house sitter and I couldn't have asked for a better person. Raye was so natural with me and the animals that I immediately had a sense of trust. The garden survived the heat wave thanks to Raye's watering efforts. Raye sent updates on the animals which was reassuring and I am sure that they were sad to see her go. Thank
you Raye.
