Cat Sitters in Footscray

Sabrina was very attentive to our fur babies. She sent regular pictures and checked in about what was normal and what was not for our old man cat. Highly recommend them! Thank you so much! 

Jade was an easy house guest who left our home in great condition. Our dogs were happy and settled when we returned. We really appreciated Jade's flexibility (allowing me to spend a couple more days with my family) and swift responses. She is a lovely person. Thanks again Jade for staying with us! We wish you all the very best in the years ahead as you continue to explore the world!

Did you know that amazing and perfection have 2 new synonyms? Yes, Erika Lynn and Manny are them! This was my first sit experience with zeewoi, and I was absolutely thrilled! My house was immaculate! I am embarrassed to say, I thought it was even cleaner than I left it! However, most importantly, their care for Phoebe was clearly evident!!! When I arrived home, I expected her to run to me with joy.... She didn't even care that I was home! It was like I never left, which was exactly what made the sit so perfect!!! I chose zeewoi to save Phoebe from the stress of boarding and travel, and I thought my only concern would be her anxiety over my being gone. Erika Lynn and Manny removed that worry ENTIRELY!! Phoebe is a dog who does not quickly or easily trust strangers and can be anxious in new situations. I was concerned how she would adjust to the transition of strangers in the house caring for her. Phoebe was so relaxed at my return! She was treated so well and so loved by them, that my absence was not noticed. Phoebe treated me as if I just returned from a quick trip to the store. No anxiety. No stress. They provided updates and stayed in touch. I would highly recommend them for any sit. zeewoi is blessed to have them as a part of this community. I am truly grateful for the love and care they gave to Phoebe and to my home!

Sally was a fantastic house and dog sitter. She was communicative and reliable. I got regular pics and updates on my dog and she took great care of my house. Would have Sally back any time!

Amanda and Nate were wonderful house sitters. We realized a few days before the sit that I had scheduled their arrival a day after we were leaving for vacation. Amanda and Nate were so accomodating and arrived a day before they had planned which was such a relief for us. Mopsy and Sadie enjoyed hanging out with them. Amanda sent updates and pictures during the week, which is always a treat We received pictures of Mopsy sitting next to Nate and Sadie getting nightly brushings from Amanda. We arrived home to find that our house was especially tidy and clean, which was so nice after being gone for 7 days! We did not need to clean anything up upon our return. Amanda sent us a detailed update at the time of their departure! :) We couldn't have asked for better house sitters/cat sitters! We would highly recommend Amanda and Nate.

Pam was great! We had clear communication before and during the sit, she left the house spotless, sent me updates of the bunnies, and made sure she understood pet and house care instructions. Highly recommend!

Farrah stepped up and saved our family reunion weekend when my confirmed sitter disappeared on us. She had to get up early and drive a long way to get here for us to get the reunion on Friday night. Poncho seemed to just warm right up to her and we immediately felt comfortable leaving. Our house was clean and tidy. She sent pictures of Poncho helping us see that he was well cared for while we were away. I would definitely have her sit again any time!!

Jenn & her girls are the ABSOLUTE BEST!! They will take great care of your home, pets & plants. Highly recommend her! She was great for us, and we appreciated her help. :)

This was our second time having Mercedes pet / house sit for us and once again she was amazing. Super organized, meticulous, clean and tidy, and updated us on our pets throughout her stay. I highly recommend Mercedes!!

Lindsey was great! She left the house clean and organized and no concerns with that. My dog loved her and it went so well he didn’t have any behavior problems when I got back. Would definitely recommend and have her come back in the future.

Tammy was a lifesaver for us when an unexpected work trip came up for my husband when I was already out of town. She was kind enough to come in a little early and meet with him so to meet our cats and go through our house and routines. She was super kind and seemed to be just as happy staying at our house just as we were to have her there. Bonus points for sending us daily photos and updates on our fur babies.

We recently had Victoria and Garrett stay at the house and with the dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. I contacted Victoria to set a sit during a surprise trip for my partner, and I quickly realized from our exchanges and chat that I had found someone who truly loves dogs and the opportunity to take care of them. From the start and throughout the sit, communication was prompt and clear, and any special instructions or requests were accommodated without hesitation. From the moment Victoria and Garrett walked in the house, I knew that my dogs were in excellent hands—they would be very comfortable and loved in our absence. Daily updates and photos were perfect and brought a smile to our faces. Victoria and Garrett also pride themselves for going above and beyond in caring for our home, and we were truly impressed. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they left everything better than we left it. I wholeheartedly recommend Victoria and Garrett for anyone seeking a trustworthy, caring, and responsible house and dog sitter. Our only regret was to not have more time to hang out with them and get to know them more, so we would welcome them any time: for a sit or just to hang out. Thank you for providing such an outstanding service!

Julie was wonderful. Rocky was well taken care. Wish she lived closer, such a nice person!

Emmi kindly agreed to come the day before I left which was much appreciated and I was happy to pick her up from the train station. She was a lovely bubbly, friendly person, easy to have in my home. Emmi contacted me once when I was away with a picture of Alfie on a walk and on one other occasion to seek help with feeding Alfie as she had a personal appt that overlapped his evening meal time. I was happy to do this as had offered support like that from sister who lived nearby if she wanted to leave him for longer than the preferred 4-5 hours, something I offer to all my sitters so they can enjoy the local area. Unfortunately she did leave him for longer than I anticipated or my sister would have taken him to her house. I think Emmi struggled with planning ahead travel arrangements to and from Edinburgh perhaps not anticipating how long buses took, though trains half the time but don’t run after midnight. Alfie seemed relaxed around Emmi though I think his walking and feeding routine was not as he was accustomed to. I always tell sitters just to leave the bedding etc as I am happy to do all that when I get home preferring the attention to be on Alfie. Emmi left my home tidy though I would have preferred half eaten food to have been removed from the fridge and maybe the bathroom bin emptied Emmi seemed to have left her packing until the very last minute so was a bit rushed when I got home but we did make it to the train station in time for her onward journey

Elizabeth was fantastic! She sent sweet pics of the pups, was very communicative, and even left us and our kiddos a little treat. Highly recommend!

Victoria and Hayden did a fantastic job of looking after my two aging kitties while I was away for two and a half weeks. I was particularly grateful to have such reliable sitters as one of my babies has reduced kidney function and needs extra attention and dietary supplements. Victoria and Hayden managed to give him a paste (which he hates and struggles to get away), and fiber powder (which he is also not super keen on and thus needs some coaxing) every day while I was away and never expressed any difficulties. At one point, Bailey was eating less than normal and they let me know and together we tried another approach to get him interested in his food again (which worked and they let me know how he was doing). Communication was good before, during and after the trip. I really appreciated Victoria and Hayden making the extra effort to arrive the day before my departure so that we could meet and go over the cats' routine together. It was immediately evident to me that they would take good care of my two kitties and look after the house, and that is exactly what they did! Not only did Victoria and Hayden do a good job cat and housing sitting, but they were also incredibly understanding when the hot water heater stopped working and we were unable to find a solution to the problem working together over the phone (indeed it ended up needing to be completely replaced!) Overall, a great experience for both the kitties and me and I hope they come back again in the future!

Pearlene and Darrel did an amazing job with our kitties while we were away on our honeymoon. We got to meet them before the sit and they were immediately bonding with the cats, petting and playing with them. We got updates with photos and videos of cuddles and play time, and the cats really took to them. They are super kind, communicative, and clean, leaving the apartment in great shape! It was so nice not to worry about a thing while we were away. We would happily have them back in the future and highly recommend them to take care of your pets and home!

Jackie was, once again, a fabulous sitter. She loves Dash and provided him with attention and care. She sent daily photos and check-ins to let us know how they were doing. I highly recommend Jackie as she is attentive, detail oriented and, most importantly, loving to Dash. See our other reviews for more details. Jackie is superb, and we are so fortunate to have her caring for our dog! I would not hesitate to have her care for your pets too! If she applies, you should say yes.

Barbara is a wish come true for any pet parent. From communication, to flexibility, to thoughtful questions to make sure she was giving Bruce the best care — she is the best house sitter I’ve ever worked with. Highly recommend.

Yesenia and MJ were absolutely wonderful pet sitters! They were thorough and prepared before they arrived and had seamless communication throughout the whole stay. They sent us lots of updates and took wonderful care of Lady and our yard. We would have them back absolutely any time and are so grateful for their help.
