We arranged for Liz and Chris to stay at ours for a couple of weeks looking after our cat Miisu. Previously, when we have been on holidays we had friends just popping by for a quick visit to see her and give her treats, we found Miisu to be very needy upon our return! However, this time when we got home she was very chilled and her normal self, which is credit to Liz and Chris, and the Zeewoi process. The fact that we had regular updates on her and that we knew she was being well looked after also allowed us to better enjoy our holidays Moreover, when we were back the house was very tidy, and they also did a great job looking after our plants. Overall very positive experience and looking forward to having them staying again.
Cindy was honestly like a hero to us! We have not one single hesitation about recommending her as an AMAZING pet and house sitter. Cindy cared for our home including a puppy and two cheeky kitty's for two weeks, while we were away on our own holiday. Cindy took everything in her stride and was nothing but loving, responsible, and a great communicator. Cindy ensured she had regular contact with us while we were away, sending us photos of our fur babies who we were missing. Management of a young 5 month old puppy will certainly keep your hands full, however this was of no concern to Cindy. Walter was teething, and still learning his position in the household. Upon our return, Walter’s cheeky behaviour had reduced significantly, with no more biting, and is now beginning to display a very calm temperament – credit goes to Cindy and the time spent with Walter. It’s surely tricky navigating the way other people set up their homes, but Cindy was full of common sense and just settled right in - she even organised some of our cupboards that we had been meaning to get to! Cindy left the place perfectly clean and tidy. On day of our departure, our flight was cancelled and we were required to take a much earlier flight; which meant a mad dash for the door and a brief handover to Cindy before we departed for our holiday. Cindy was so helpful during this rush, even helping to hangout some washing and took Walter for a walk while we were packing. We feel lucky to have had Cindy in our home and pets lives, she is amazing! All the best for your travels, we thank you for all that you did to help us enjoy a stress free holiday. You are welcome back any time, but this time you will be off-duty and can relax. Thank you from Courtney, Roxy, Misty, Luna and Walter!
