Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
strongly recommend Christine and Phil to housesit for your kitty. Our pets, Babbles and Cousin Eddy, and property, were in very good hands while we where away for two weeks. They had a fair amount entailed with two cats on different food and needs. Cousin Eddy, or Edoardo, is a barn cat we recently adopted. Eddy is very sweet and stays outside but hangs out the side door wanting to be petted and fed; Bubbles is an indoor cat. Both cats were spoiled by Christine and Phil! Christine and Phil were also very caring and attentive with the needs of our Airbnb guests. During the time we were away they kept us updated daily (including photos of the cats). When we came home, our house was perfect, with lovely fresh flowers, notes for us, and our cats had been well-cared-for. They are wonderful house sitters, and we highly recommend them. They were Five-star sitters of our house and cats!
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least £15 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Put our 2 dogs here for 10 days, was abit worried as mia is a nervous anxious pup when out of her own environment but they were excellent with her spent time in her kennel to put her at ease. Molly was no problem. When we picked them up they were both very happy pups & I would definitely recommend here & will definitely be booking them in next year again. A big thank you to all of yous for the fabulous care you gave our pups.
This place has bunny rabbits to view out back! Also a pet shop with all the essentials inside for your pets, they also have a garden centre not massive but plenty to buy and kennels if you need to leave your pup for a while. They've always been lovely people and very friendly.
All the staff here are lovely, friendly & helpful. I buy my dog food & treats here regularly. The only drawback here is the terrible till/ stock control/ code system. A couple of times I’ve nearly said to just leave it, as it was taking so long to find a price. I wish the owner would update the system.😕
My husband and I have used Bauds many times over during the past 15 years. Our wee Yorkie was always eager to get to Bauds when we reached the top of the road. She instinctively knew where we were going. Her eagerness said it all. We never doubted how well she was looked after by both the friendly owner's and staff of Bauds. It made it much easier for us to relax and enjoy our own holiday breaks away. Thank you all at Bauds.
My doggie Oso, spent over 2 weeks there while I was on holiday. Was a bit concerned leaving him for so long, but the staff there were so helpful and put me at ease. Came home to a happy doggie. Would totally recommend.
Having put my dog to this kennels the staff were friendly and I was reassured that she would be well looked after unfortunately on my return my poor dog had lost 4.1 kg in weight lost her coller and lead and the staff couldn't remember the dogs name when I confronted the owner he was no help what's so ever
Has been my kennels of choice over the the lives of my last 4 dogs. Great staff and dogs come home healthy and happy.
Dogs love it there. Always happy to go and get a great welcome. Lovely friendly staff.
Aye good place to put your cat or dog look after them excellent
Very good recommend it to anybody Who is looking for a kennel for there pet's. Very friendly staff.
Our dog loves coming to stay here. He’s always well looked after and the staff are lovely
Chloe does a great cut ,wash, and dry on my two westies! Highly recommend
Took great care of my dogs. Really happy with the grooming that Chloe did. Not an easy task with two hairy doodles!
Following up from Spey's little stop over. What a fab place, great customer service, Sarah is loved by Spey, he enjoyed nothing more than running around the estate. Excellent kennels for all types of dogs, definitely recommend Sarah and team to anyone wishing to kennel their pets 👍 …
What a great place this is. Lots of space for the dogs to run about with fantastic agility equipment and toys. Will definitely be booking to go again. Thank you 🐶x …
Good service, the road is a farm road so you have to take it easy. .
So happy with Nalas cut xx Thankyou xx
Looked after my boy with lots of love and care ❤️
Lovely smelling doggy and very friendly staff.
Andy and Karen are absolutely brilliant with all the dogs, they have supported our nervous dog to feel very comfortable and built her confidence hugely. We have used the day service and boarding service, both fantastic, they treat the dogs with so much love and care. Our pup just loves to go out to see them.
This is the 1st time I have ever left any of my animals with people outside family.I certainly don't regret it,Kara had a wonderful time in a secure loving home with a special loving couple and I had a relaxing holiday,Andy kept me up to date with photos and Kara daily behaviour.I will highly recommend Edintore and have no problem Kara returning.Annie
This review is from Lola !, thank you to Andy & Karen for really looking after me I can't thank you both enough for giving me all the fun & care while I was booked into your 5 star doggy hotel , I'm booked in again soon can't wait & please say hello to Max .
Our 5 month old puppy went here for a week while we were on holiday, i recieved daily pupdates and could see how much fun he was having with Max, he was exceptionally well looked after and I have already book his next holiday, Thank you xx
Fantastic owners who really put the dogs first. Like a home from home for our dog
Superb!
Danni is absolutely fantastic, it’s not just a pet service she provides, she provides love and care to our fur babies too. We never worry when Danni is with them as we receive regular updates, pictures and videos so we know all our animals are safe and happy. She is exceptionally trustworthy, reliable and we are just so glad to have found her.
Danni is very professional and makes both owners and dogs at ease. My two shetland sheepdogs love her and I would recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker or pet sitter. She gives great feedback and photos while out with dogs which I find very reassuring.
We can't recommend Danni highly enough. Our dogs absolutely love her and she gives a high quality service, tailored to the needs of each dog and household. In addition to our two hounds, we regularly foster dogs who come with all sorts of issues and Danni takes all their little quirks in her stride and takes time to understand what's required both by us and the charity we foster for, which is hugely appreciated. All in all, an absolute star and our resident boys wouldn't have anybody else ❤️
Our girls absolutely love Danni and she loves them ! She is 100% reliable and trustworthy and we would use anyone else! Always keeps us up to date with pictures and videos whilst she's walking them/looking after them. Danni has also stayed in our home whilst we have been away and our minds have been completely at rest meaning we can enjoy time away knowing our pooches are well looked after!
Danni is amazing! She has looked after our two on and off when we have needed her. She is super reliable and will go Out her way to try and help even if it’s last minute. Our boy Dex really does not like being left along but it’s has got better and better as time he gone on. Having Danni being able to to do her pop in visits As well as walks has made our lives much easier and made Dex’s a happier one. Without Danni’s help I don’t think we would be able to go places that take longer than 30mins - 1hr. She really has helped Dex feel safe and treats our two Dogs like her own. 100% would recommend Danni with a doubt Thank again x
Danni has a way with animals - the love she has for them is obvious. My cats loved having her watch them (overnight stays) as she offered them comfort and company. Having Danni move in while we were away was the best decision i could have made - my mind was eased knowing that they had someone with them all night. I have her booked up for my holiday next year, and i wouldn’t consider anyone else now!
If you are looking for anyone to walk/ look after your best friend then look no further. We have had Danni on a few occasions and she is great and our dogs are always very happy.Will definitely use her again 🐕🦺
Danni gives a professional reliable service. We get a daily report on the walk and on Archies well-being. It's obvious she cares for Archie . Highly recommended.
Danni is brilliant reliable and very professional. Muttley absolutely adores her and is always excited to go for his walkies . I highly recommend her Services
Paawfect pet services is a very professional doggy care...my Harry adores Danni and she has a way with animals that they love her too back......nothing is any problem to Danni..always reliable and very very professional...would not hesitate to recommend Paawfect Pet Services...
Anyone looking for a reliable, kind, caring and animal loving sitter please do contact Jane. She came to our house when we were away to overnight stay with Franki. Really put our minds at ease that Franki was able to stay in the comfort of her own own, get lovely walks and have 24/7 company. If you know us, you’ll know we wouldn’t leave Franki with just anyone. To find Jane has made going away much easier, although I still cried when we left her 🥹🥰 Thank you Jane for the daily updates and ensuring Franki was so well looked after 🐾🫶🏾
We would highly recommend Jane for pet sitting. Jane looked after our little cat Pumpkin for 5 nights when we were away and was just wonderful. Our cat bonded with her immediately and we received regular updates and photos. We are already planning to book Jane again for future trips. Thank you so much Jane for looking after Pumpkin so well! We really appreciate it. Many thanks Zoë and Callum
Our dog is a hard nut to crack, he's takes a while to warm up to people usually, but with Jane it didn't take long at all. He has his quirks, but Jane worked with him, and they had the best time together, I think our dog was sad that Jane left. When we got home, he kept checking the spare room to see if she was there. 🥰It's such a relief to have someone that you can trust and you know your pet is in great hands! He also took well to Tomas, which surprised us as he normally is suspicious of men. If our dog gives the thumbs up (paws up?) then you know it's a five star rating! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was impressed with Jane when she came to meet my two elderly springer spaniels and a 11 month retriever / working cocker spaniel. Busy doggie home . As arranged Jane arrived to care / pet sit for them . My dogs were happy to see her and relaxed. Jane requested that their requirements food /meds/ behaviour etc be written down for reference especially as my springers are on medication. I felt relaxed and happy on leaving and received updates on how they were , also photos. Peace of mind . I returned home to three extremely happy and contented dogs . Feel really fortunate that I have found Jane and she is returning to care for Lady , Tiree and Tara next month . I definitely recommend Jane , The Sensible Sitter .
Jane has looked after our 5 dogs on 3 occasions last year and we have her booked in for a few sits this year as well. Jane has been really accommodating and will go above and beyond to help. It is very comforting knowing that Jane is so confident and competent with our beloved gang and we really could not recommend her enough. 😊🐾👍
Our two young springers were well looked after with regular pictures/updates and settled well with Jane. One of them tends to be a bit nervous with other people but clearly bonded as she was still fussing around Jane when we arrived home which really is most unusual. No hesitation in recommending her services.
Highly recommend Jane and we have already booked her in for another 3 times. Dogs loved her and she is so considerate of your needs ❤️
Would highly recommend this service. My pets were taken good care of in their own environment. The sensible sitter kept us regularly updated. Would definitely book again. Thank you
Provides a personal service with regular updates. A knowledgeable and experienced pet sitter.
Great attention to detail, a caring personal touch with professional standards and outstanding value. Highly recommended
