Alex is everything you’re looking for in a sitter! One of our favorites so far. Reliable, responsive, friendly, self-sufficient, and detail-oriented. He took great care of our big dog, taking him and George for long walks around town, to dog beach, and even for day trips. He made everything easy for us, followed our instructions and checked if we were ok with things if he wasn’t sure. We enjoyed his daily (or more frequent) fun updates with pictures and video. Alex is super easy to communicate with, flexible and easygoing. He made the most of his stay in our area, took some of our tips and did his own exploring. House was super clean when we returned and Alex did some extra things which were very considerate. Alex’s plans leading up to our housesit were thrown off by a homeowner canceling last-minute due to COVID, but he was amazingly cool about it, did his research about how to handle it through the zeewoi website, and found alternative housing in our town. We met up with him a few days before our trip and met his sweet pup George. George was great! A little guy. Not the least bit aggressive. He was a little nervous around all the commotion at dog beach and stuck close to Alex. Clearly well taken care of by his doting dog dad. We were glad our dog had the additional company and that George had energy for miles-long walks and park playdates. We’re so glad we found Alex. Highly recommend!

This was a fabulous sit in every respect.

James and Caroline are lovely people who made me feel genuinely welcomed from the outset. Arriving the night before I was invited to have supper with the family, which included their two teenage children who had just returned home for the Easter holidays. The idea of this was a little daunting at first but on arrival I was quickly reassured resulting in a very enjoyable evening with delicious food, interesting conversation, and nice wine.

In the days that followed I felt extremely privileged to be entrusted with looking after their beautiful and interesting home as well as two of the sweetest and most well-behaved dogs I have ever encountered. This combined with the famously stunning setting completed the picture, the only slight downside being the somewhat sodden weather, which made the ground rather muddy in places. 

I will remember the week with great affection and hope for the chance of a return visit at some point in the future.
