Robert and Rosa <3 They are lovely people. Discreet, reliable, kind and took great care of my home and my birds. Everything in the house was clean and they left us food in the refrigerator and we loved it because it was delicious. They are well-traveled and experienced, they like animals and enjoying life. We eat pizza and talk about our travel stories and they have exactly our vibe. Thank you guys for taking care of everything perfect. We recommend 100%

Curtis Alexander

Curtis stayed at my house for three weeks and I was very happy with the experience. He was thoughtful, responsible, and he followed through on everything. He was great with both my cats and plants. I came home to a clean, well-cared for house. Highly recommended!

Belinda & Mackie

Belinda was absolutely wonderful! She cared for our little Italian greyhound and left the house in beautiful order. She was communicative and prompt to respond throughout and before her stay. We are very thankful to have connected with her. Thank you, Belinda!

Estelle

Estelle was fantastic. She checked all the boxes and more - great communication even though the stay was short, Bogie and Leo were happy and well cared for, she went above and beyond with tidying up and cleaning our home for when we came home. We would definitely have her back. And she's very personable, Thanks Estelle..

Kelly & Jeff

We were so grateful to have Kelly take care of our home, our dog Cooper, and our cat Ollie. Kelly went above and beyond in caring for our pets, ensuring they were happy and comfortable the entire time. She was an excellent communicator, regularly sending us updates and pictures that reassured us everything was going great. When we returned, our home was spotless—Kelly even left it cleaner than when we left! She was so thoughtful and kind, even leaving us a little gift at the end of her stay. Her daughter was also incredibly sweet and great with the animals. We would love to have Kelly back again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and conscientious house sitter.

LaDonna

LaDonna was a wonderful sitter and took excellent care of our dog Luna. She sent frequent updates and left our place spotless. We'd love to have her back anytime!

Jude

Jude was excellent with the furry kids. He even took the dog for extended hikes, which I'm sure they both enjoyed! This is something I don't generally get a chance to do with Cody. He even went above and beyond with preparing and hosting our Airbnb in our absence. He also had an additional challenge in that our refrigerator was having issues, so he had to juggle food from one to another, which he handled very well! Thanks Jude for your taking care of our furry kids and our home!

Daniel

It was an absolute pleasure to have Daniel and Vasy watch our home and kitten, Scout. They moved their trip up a day to be able to meet us and Scout prior to leaving. They were extremely communicative, understanding, and kind. Daniel even fixed our door while we were gone! I feel so lucky to have met them and would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you guys!!

David

David and I clicked on the Zoom interview, but it was not a great fit, ultimately. The pets are fine, so the most important thing is that. And the house is fine. I guess I've been spoiled by great sitters who left our house impeccably clean and communicated daily with pictures and information that clearly indicated they knew our pets well and were taking really good care of them and our house. This seems to be the zeewoi standard. But I had to contact David every time I wanted information. He never contacted us once, although he did respond within the hour when I contacted him. But not a picture. Nothing. He even jokingly complained that our cat wasn't being warm enough to him and he considered himself a cat whisperer and was a little peeved. I laughed along and shrugged it off because he was such a nice guy. But I think he found my detailed instructions too informative? Over the 25 years I've had pet sitters some have joked about my very thorough instructions, but everyone, until David, told me they very much appreciated too much information rather than not enough. It doesn't appear he paid them much attention. He didn't recycle. He didn't take in our mail, several days worth was left sitting in our mailbox, which he explained was because we hadn't explicitly asked him to bring it in. The same was true about sending pics of the animals or communication. If I'd asked he would have, but I didn't, so he didn't. The same went for a package that was delivered the day we came home. It arrived at noon, 5 hours before he left our house, but he just left it outside. He said he figured it "would be fine" out there until we got home. He also left earlier than we'd agreed to over text. It's clear if you read the instructions what time the dogs eat dinner and I told him to please stay until dinner, walk them as instructed and then feed them before he left. He left an hour and a half earlier than that to meet friends at the beach. He also didn't follow the instructions for feeding one of our cats, about not leaving her food out because the dogs would eat it before she got a chance to. He did this at least twice that I know of. There was a coating of sand in the shower. The bed was made-ish. He didn't bother with the wash cloth on the bathroom counter I asked him to use to wipe it down so the poured cement doesn't stain. It was untouched, perfectly folded and the post-it note was still stuck to it . The floor was not swept, lots of fur tumbleweeds, although I'd left the vacuum out. And when I challenged him his response was that, "he was not a professional." Except that this site is based on a pay-based membership and at least I expect professional behavior from the sitters who I entrust with my pets and my house. He was taken aback by my texts challenging him when we got home and had discovered all the above. He said he's received nothing but good reviews before and I have no reason not to believe him. He also said he "probably won't use the app again." He said he was "feeling a little attacked" by my observations, even explaining that he'd been asked back by other sitters, and one even paid him some $, though he hadn't asked for it and never would. I've never ever had anything but great relationships with the sitters I've had in my home, through this site or before over the years. Some were long-term sitters for over a decade. I liked David very much as a person over the phone. I have to say we were not a good match once I came home and saw the lack of attention to our instructions, and that he hadn't cleaned up after himself thoroughly before leaving. Not all fits are good ones. This one wasn't for me., though I wish David the best, as he did me.

Tobi

Tobi was a very good sitter. She left house very neat and even took care of linens. My flowers were also a required task and they are fine. Highly recommend

Philippe

We were relaxed knowing Philippe was watching the house and cats while we were traveling several months. He sent pictures every day and kept us fully informed. We came home to happy kitties and a perfect home!

Freddie

Freddie did an incredible job with our cat and our house for an extended period of time! She pampered and loved our cat and left the house immaculate. She went out of her way to help us out, and was a godsend in a changing and uncertain situation. Very responsible and conscientious, excellent communication. Big thanks for everything, Freddie!

George

Loved this sit so much mostly because Daisy and Finn were such awesome dogs. I definitely fell in love with both of them. I loved this sit also because Prescott is now one of my favorite places in the Southwest. I was able to take the dogs on the Flume & Watson Dam trail which I highly recommend. They behaved really well and learned to go easy on the leash when we were climbing down hill. We had so much fun. The home was comfortable, lovely and had such a beautiful view. It was located close to all the best trails. Randy and Susan were kind, gracious, easy to communicate with and a delight to work with. There was a bit of noise from the air traffic nearby but it didn't bother me too much. The golf course they live on is very beautiful and it was enjoyable to walk the dogs in the neighborhood. I would def recommend this sit.

Morgane & Romain

I had a great time catsitting for Morgane and Romain. They are very friendly and caring hosts. Their apartment is comfortable and clean and in a great location in Amsterdam. Morgane and Romain are easy to communicate with and are very helpful in case anything comes up. Kiki is super sweet and playful and easy to look after. She loves having someone around and is great company. I would highly recommend this housesit and would love to come back to look after Kiki again in the future!

Edward

We miss Luna already! We had the most wonderful time taking care of Luna and Ed and Lisa's home. Luna is a super sweet dog, and while a little timid was great on walks and going exploring in the local parks with us. She's super easy to care for and was a fantastic work from home buddy while we were there. 

The house is beautiful and was perfectly set up for us. We had our own guest space and bathroom downstairs which was perfect. It took a couple days but Luna joined us down there as well! The location is in a really nice quiet neighborhood and close to get to restaurants, parks, and Lake Washington! 

Ed and Lisa were incredibly kind and gave us all the info we needed to take care of Luna and the house. We were able to meet them ahead of the sit to get a tour and rundown of the place, and they had a very thorough house sit guide for us as well. They even left out info on the tulip festival in Skagit Valley for us since we mentioned we might check it out on our way to our next sit after theirs! 

We would happily come back and sit for Luna, Ed and Lisa again!

Brynn

Coda is the best companion you could ask for! Really well behaved and a great company for walks, trips to the park or hanging out on the couch. He's the sweetest dog and I'll miss him.
The clear communication with Bryn, welcoming vibe from the beginning and the location of the flat makes this the perfect sit! :)

zoe

Rob and Zoe are a lovely couple who live in a modern house in the idyllic village of Combe Hay just outside the amazing historic city of Bath. Rob was a great communicator both before and during the sit. We felt respected and well supported throughout the sit. The house was beautifully clean, our accommodation was ideal and the layout of the house enabled us to spend our time in a discreet and extremely comfortable area of the house. The welcome guide was very comprehensive and accurate.

Clemmie and Hettie were absolutely adorable and extremely easy to care for. They were good walking on the lead and also both had good recall when off the lead. We walked straight from the house, the long walks were across the local fields and the shorter “comfort” walks around the village. Hettie was more adventurous and zoomed off, but never too far; Clemmie stayed closer but did, occasionally, run after and play with Hettie. Both dogs were great companions with their own character. They were both affectionate without being “needy”, although Hettie made out that she’d been separated from us for an eternity whether it was letting her out first thing in the morning, or after returning from shopping, with a most endearing soft whimper for a couple of minutes while wanting hugs and reassurance.

On more than one occasion they showed us the way to the local pub where they obediently lay down while we ate a meal on one occasion and a drink on another. They knew the pub’s resident dogs and were perfectly well behaved. They were equally as perfect when we visited a pub they were not familiar with. In the car they were quiet and lay down for the journey; Hettie occasionally sat up and looked out of the rear window.
The house is located a few minutes drive from the Odd Down Park & Ride making getting into and out of Bath stress-free during the busy pre-Christmas period. Bath is essential visiting and has something for everybody.
We loved our stay in a beautiful house in the company of two adorable cockapoos. We highly recommend this sit and hope that we might be fortunate enough to be able to return.

Amanda

I absolutely loved my time at Mandy's beautiful home. Ringo and Maude where a pleasure to look after! Mandy is extremely hospitable and her communication was excellent. Her home is conveniently located near beautiful beaches, and amazing rainforrests and also close to town.
Mandy was incredibly kind to lend me her car during my stay. Additionally Mandy let me stay on a few more days after the sit, and also dropped me off at the airport. I couldn't recommend Mandy more, and am very grateful to her for making my experience of visiting Cairns to memorable!
