Cat Sitters in Glenelg East

Cricket & Elinor

Cricket and Nel were so enjoyable to have as guests and pet sitters. They were amenable to staying with Lin and Candy and truly became friends with our family by the end of their stay. The love they gave to Ava and Dash gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. We received photos and updates throughout their stay. They took great care of our home and by the end, even though it was not necessary, were enjoying meals and outings with Lin. We have received our invitation to visit them in Australia and to encourage us they left us a coffee table book of the Wild Life of Australia. We would definitely have them back! Five stars!

Peter

Had great communication with Peter & Shane, they sent pictures and videos as requested while I was away. Found the house tidy and clean upon my return. Would recommend.

DAVID

David was very kind to Dash and Bloss and took good care of them. He had to take Bloss to the vet to check on her skin which was unexpected but he didn’t mind. He provided some updates on their well-being and was attentive to them. I would have no hesitation in recommending David.

Alice

Alice & Sam are a very easy going couple who looked after Ember for us for a fortnight. All went well & they did a decent job with no issues.

Kate

Kate was a wonderful sitter and provided a wonderful "first time" experience using zeewoi. She was communicative, reliable, and my animals absolutely loved her. My dog, Odie, was looking for her for two days after I returned home. It was a relief to know the house and animals were well taken care of in my absence. Kate also went above-and-beyond to help FedEx my passport when my license was lost during my trip. I truly appreciate her!

Diane

Diane & Leon were wonderful housesitters. They looked after my 3 fur babies perfectly and went over& above looking after my home. Anyone will be very lucky to have Diane & Leon house sit. Highly recommended 🤩

Lesley

Richard and Lesley came to stay whilst I returned back to the UK for a holiday to see friends and family. Communication before their arrival was great. We had a call to talk through the requirements of the stay and it allowed both parties to ask questions. Several emails were exchanged in the run up. On arrival they were both instantly liked by both of my dogs, Spartacus & Maggie. I had no fears on leaving them both in Richard and Lesley's capable hands. During my time away they sent me a few emails on how the dogs were with photos - there were much appreciated. On my return the house was spotless and I was greeted by 2 very happy dogs. Richard had kindly done a couple of odd jobs around the garden which was very kind. I cannot recommend Richard & Lesley enough to care for your pets and home.

Debbie

Debbie was wonderful! Super responsive and easy to communicate. Took excellent care of the dogs and sent us photos and updates. When we came home the house was immaculate and the dogs were very happy and calm. It was a pleasure to have Debbie housesit and know our home and dogs were so well looked after

Hannah

Hannah was excellent with my boy Jimmy, did everything that I asked for in taking care of my Jimmy & Jimmy absolutely love Hannah because when I arrived home Jimmy was actually looking for Hannah in the bedroom where they slept... Hannah kept me updated with my Jimmy on a daily basis & Hannah kept my home tidy & made sure everything was in order for myself to get home.. so I would truly recommend Hannah to look after any pet whilst people are travelling.. 😘 Jimmy my boy would like to say a huge thank you to Hannah for keeping me fed, water & cuddles.. 😻

Pedro

Pedro and Amina were lovely to have in the house, they took great care of the animals and everything was beautifully neat and clean to come home to. They were considerate, communicative and just very nice, cheerful people. I heartily recommend them, and I would love to have them house sit for us again anytime.

Scarlett

Scarlett and Holly were the PERFECT house guests and pet sitters to our two dogs. This was our first time having people look after our dogs and our home and we would choose Holly and Scarlet a million times over if we could! One of our dogs can be quite anxious and shy around new people and they were extremely gentle and kind to him and also had no problem giving him medication each day. They were responsive in communication and just all round lovely people, as well as leaving the house immaculate and our dogs happy and sleepy when they left. I would definitely recommend them to look after your home and fur babies!

Cecilia & Regan

Cecilia and Regan are a lovely couple. Very conscientious in caring for my pets and looking after the house. My dog Gusy has certain problems in accepting new people in his life but they coped extremely well with him. The house was well looked after and I had no hesitation in leaving them in charge while I was away. They are the perfect house sitters and I wish them all the best in the future.

margo

We recently had the pleasure of having Bryan and Paula house sit for us, and they were absolutely fabulous! From the moment we connected, their communication was clear, friendly, and reassuring. They truly went above and beyond to ensure our home and, most importantly, our beloved dog Rascal, were well taken care of.

Rascal can be a bit particular, but Bryan and Paula spoiled him rotten! It was clear from their updates and the photos they sent that Rascal was in great hands and having the time of his life. They followed all our care instructions perfectly and even took the initiative to give Rascal some extra love and attention.

When we returned, our home was spotless, and Rascal was as happy and healthy as ever. It was such a relief to know that everything was in such capable hands. Bryan and Paula are true animal lovers, and their kindness and dedication shine through in everything they do.

We highly recommend Bryan and Paula to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and responsible house sitters. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would welcome them  back in a heart beat! 

Thank you, Bryan and Paula, for everything!

Mary

Dan and Bebe were the most wonderful housesitters! We felt comfortable with them right away and they were very easy to coordinate and communicate with. Our cat didn't even care that we got home because she received such good attention while we were away. Also, the house was immaculate when we returned. Highly recommended!
