Maxine took wonderful care of my cat, Mimi. This was my first time using zeewoi, and Maxine was very kind and told me how the site and the sits work. As a newbie, I highly appreciated this information. Maxine and her partner David are really kind people that genuinely love cats. Maxine sent me updates of Mimi daily (we had agreed on daily updates) and the videos proved that Mimi trusted Maxine and David and felt safe around them. This was a huge relief during my time away and I was able to relax knowing Mimi was well looked after. Even though my apartment is not within a walking distance to the shops, Maxine never complained and made her own arrangements. Maxine also bought toys for Mimi which Mimi plays with often. This was a pleasant surprise which was highly appreciated. Maxine also engaged my cat often and played a lot with her. I appreciated this a lot as my cat loves playing with wands and toys. The apartment was super tidy, to an extent I didn't think was ever possible haha. Maxine is an experienced sitter, which was evident in the way she organised everything for the sit. During the week approaching Maxine's sit, I had a checklist with a number of house related tasks to complete. Due to time constraints, a couple of these tasks were incomplete, but Maxine did not complain although I know that the completion of these tasks would have made Maxine's visit smoother. Overall, I am really grateful to Maxine and David who were so gentle with Mimi. Communication was excellent and friendly and I highly recommend Maxine as you can trust that your cat(s) will be completely safe and well looked after.

Beverley
If you are lucky enough to be chosen by Beverley, you are in for a real treat, Beverley is extremely welcoming and puts you at ease immediately. Her beautiful and comfortable home is situated in a lovely residential area with some great walks close by.  There are great  amenities within a 30 minute walk if you do not have a car, as well the area is serviced by buses. Banbury is a lovely little city with great restaurants, shops, and plenty of areas for sightseeing. However, the best part of this sit for us was Charlie. You could not ask for a better cat to look after. Charlie is not only well behaved but he is very friendly. My best times sitting for Beverley found me sitting in a little glassed in cove with Charlie on my knee watching all the birds in her back yard. In the evenings Charlie would snuggle up with me on the sofa. This was one of our favorite sits and I am positive if will be the same for you.

Roz
We spent a week looking after Gracie for Roz and Peter.  They are a lovely couple with a lovely clean home and little dog.  Gracie was no trouble, very well behaved and loved to play with her toys and have lots of cuddles.

Gillian
I had a wonderful time at Gillian’s home. The home is beautiful, clean, relaxing and comfortable. The animals were very well behaved and a joy to look after. I really enjoyed completing their routines everyday and spending time with them. It was especially fun walking the goats.

Gillian’s home is in a great location with lots of countryside to explore and plenty of time in between the routines to do this. 

She equipped us with detailed information and everything we needed to make the stay a success plus more. She was very generous with her time, a good communicator and offered us home grown veg, fresh eggs, coffee and home brewed cider. 

Would highly recommend a house sit at Gillian’s home.

Michelle
I had a wonderful time house-sitting for Michelle and Owen! They are incredibly kind and helpful, and Vinny is the sweetest cat. Their home is beautiful and very comfortable, tucked into a cool neighborhood of Boston. In their house-sitting guide they included many great cafes and restaurants from the neighborhood. I feel so lucky to have had this opportunity! I would highly recommend this sit!

Reynaldo
My first THS experience couldn't have been more perfect! Nuno and Rey are friendly and welcoming hosts. They gave me clear yet simple instructions and some extra tips about low and high tides, the city, trips, etc. Their flat has a very nice vibe, attractive design, and is very comfortable. I instantly felt at home, and I really appreciated being able to use an external monitor while working online. And Arya is an amazing companion—zen and very intelligent dog. Taking care of her was so rewarding and easy too. She's well-behaved and doesn't interact with other animals, so you can walk her without a leash. She guided me to many beautiful places in the area. There's a lot to see — hills, viewpoints, forests, and beaches within walking distance. I enjoyed peaceful walks on the empty beach every morning and there's also a hill with a fortress that offers a lovely view of the city, it's in walking distance from the apartment. Thank you, Rey, Nuno and Arya, so much for my amazing Setúbal adventure. I would never hesitate to sit again!
