Beth and Matthew have been my first house sitters - and I was their first house sit too. Beth and Matthew have been great. I was a little nervous as this was the first time I've the zeewoi platform and service. Beth contacted me to let me know that one of my dogs had a sore on her chest and sent me a video to let me see and decide what to do. We agreed my dog needed to be seen by a vet and within a few hours my dog had antibiotics. Beth even popped into a shop to buy my dog a jumper to wear as the vet had recommended this to stop her scratching the sore. When I got home Beth had washed all their bedding and the house was clean and tidy. Both Beth and Matthew are a lovely couple and I would definitely recommend them both if you are looking for reliable and trustworthy house and pet sitters.
Erica was great! Easy to communicate with and very self -sufficient when we ended up being out of service for several days. Pingo and the house were clearly in good hands, we came back to a spotless house with a freshly made bed and a happy dog. We'd definitely have Erica again!
I am so grateful to Victoria for taking such wonderful care of my elder cats,, Zoe and Mischief, my home and my garden! She stayed in touch, and even sent photos of Zoe and Mischief, which further reassured me that my kitties and my home were in good hands while I was away. In short, I feel lucky to have connected with Victoria through zeewoi, wouldn't hesitate to call on her again, and recommend her without reservation.
This was my first time using zeewoi. Not only did I have to prepare my home for a guest but prepare myself for leaving my boys with someone I had only met through a zoom call. Right away, I was put at ease as Sharon just gravitated right to my boys. She asked questions about info that I had missed in my welcome pack that made me rest assured that she was on the ball. Throughout my trip, Sharon kept in touch with me about how the boys were getting along... I was so relieved hearing that their usual playful selves was apparent. Given that our flight home was going to be late, she insisted on waiting until we were heading out of the airport before leaving the boys with their last walk until we came home. When we walked through our front door, the boys were chilling out, our home was spotless, and she even washed the bedding. I can recommend Sharon with 100% certainty that your pets will be in great hands. Thanks Sharon for everything.
Jaclyn was a wonderful sitter for our dog Tucker! She was always quick to respond to communications, she was easy-going and excited to sit with Tucker, she shared updates (with pictures) while we were away, and she left our house cleaner than when we left - she even ran the dishwasher, which we forgot to do before we left! She and Tucker bonded immediately, and when we returned home it was clear that he had a great time with Jaclyn. We can't recommend her highly enough!
I can’t say enough good things about Felicia! She was willing to come over ahead of time so we could meet her. Lele took an instant liking to her (and I think it was mutual).😁 Felicia showed up on time, checked in on a regular basis while I was away, and sent photos of Lele, too. I tend to over prepare, and Felicia was accepting of that and helped me feel okay about my preparation and absence. I felt very comfortable leaving, knowing the most important thing, Lele, was well taken care of. This is my first time using zeewoi, so I didn’t really know what to expect. Felicia far exceeded all of my hopes and expectations. I would absolutely love to have Felicia come back again!
I am so glad that my cat, Duque, and I met Sharon! She is a wonderful person, very kind with pets, thorough with house care and communicative. Sharon's cleaning (and brownies!) went above and beyond and my cat did not seem to have missed me much when I got home. I recommend Sharon if she applies for your sit and we hope to welcome her back to our home one day.
Julie and Adrian were ideal pet and house sitters. Julie and Damian are very friendly and made sure to go over details and ask questions when they arrived. We came home to very happy and contented pets. Our dog and cat clearly got lots of love and attention (also clear from the great photos that Julie and Adrian sent us). The house was immaculate when we came home. We could not ask for better, more trusted, house sitters.
Although they are experienced pet sitters this was their first sit with zeewoi and they were wonderful. Jyoti (our cat) was completely at ease and spent plenty of time on their laps. The chickens were well looked after and they managed the broody one efficiently. Excellent communication before and during the house sit. They followed our detailed instructions conscientiously and left the house clean and tidy. They cooked a meal for us on our return and we enjoyed getting to know them. We would welcome them back any time and highly recommend them for future sits.
Lea was so wonderful, we highly recommend her. She was friendly and communicative throughout, sending us daily updates and photos. We returned back to a beautifully cleaned house and a very happy cat, we are so grateful- she was an absolute delight
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?

Gemma offers a really classy 5 star service! She is completely trustworthy, and most importantly a real cat person. My elderly, usually unfriendly, medicated cat loved her ( and Gemma sent me videos to prove it!). I would not hesitate to recommend Marden cats to anyone.
Absolutely could not recommend Gem and Marden Cats more!! We went away for a week and Gem was looking after our 3 kitties Kiki, Precious and Tito and from the day she met them you just knew they would be safe with her, they all warmed to her! Gem and Sally are both real cat lovers and Gem loved our cats so much which was lovely. I was speaking to Gem everyday and she took some gorgeous photos of our kitties which really helped as I was missing them. Gem is honestly so sweet and trustworthy, I had no concerns whatsoever, she genuinely cares about the kitties too! One of the days our kitties brought in a present however Gem was a diamond and managed to save the birdie and take it outside too. We are also collecting another kitten today now we are back and Gem is going to pop by to meet him too. I wouldn't leave my cats with anyone else now, we came back to 3 happy kitties and we can truly and rely on Marden Cats and will use them everytime, THANK YOU! Xxxx
Gem looked after my very skittish cat for a few days and was amazing! It was my first time leaving him for that long and I was nervous but she was so professional and caring. From the moment she came to meet us you could tell how much she cared about cats and gaining the trust of our nervous boy! She won him over instantly when she visited him, I have never seen him warm that quickly to anyone. I won't hesitate to use Gem again!
Gem looked after our 2 cats while we were away recently and we couldn't be happier. She went above and beyond making sure they were well cared for and sent us photos and videos of them while we were away. Our cats adore her and it's clear how much she cares for them too. Would 100% recommend!
Gem is quite simply amazing. We have a very troubled couple of cats and without her tender loving care to rely on I doubt we would be able to get away on holiday. Recently while we were away Gem returned to our house to put our minds at rest that we had locked our doors. She also spent time hunting for our most nervous cat who had gone missing. What a wonderful lady and asset to the village she is.
Highly professional with open communication before, during and after our holiday, we have been impressed with Gem’s business and recommend her services to anyone who is going away and needs someone to keep their pet safe, healthy and happy in their absence. Gem is the Cat Whisperer. Clearly being a cat lover, Gem bonded instantly with our cat Snoopy, and came over to meet us and Snoopy at our house before we went away. Gem reassured us while we were away by sending photos of Snoopy and sending messages. We had a cat cam set up at home, which only recorded brief snippets of our cat’s movement near her food, but we were able to see that she couldn’t be more chilled with us away and having twice-daily cuddles and feeds from Gem. We have previously relied on local catteries (which we are also impressed with) but have to say that our cat was the happiest, most relaxed and least traumatised after our return from being away and having Gem look after her, than after any cattery stay. After our cat has been kept in a cattery, she typically cries for several days and nights after we return, pacing around the house, wailing at the top of her voice until someone cuddles her. After Gem visiting her and being surrogate mother for a week, we have had no broken nights’ sleep from Snoopy crying and no cold shoulder from Snoopy, either! In addition to this, Gem has helped reduce our usage of the washing machine, antibac spray and paper towels with her advice on calming Snoopy’s reflux, which has almost eradicated Snoopy’s daily vomiting after eating. Gem is a superstar. She is so kind and lovely and our girls, cat and all of us love her. We are all so grateful to Gem for looking after Snoopy and making sure she felt loved when we weren’t around to do so ourselves. No more cattery visits for Snoopy, we will use Gem again for as long as she’s available.
The service that Gem provides is first class! She cares so much for all that cats she attends to and that is obvious. Our two adore he! Gem has helped us out on many occasions, and some with very short notice, she is so accommodating and we could not thank her more. I would completely recommend Marden Cats!
We had Gem in for 3 weeks over Easter. We had only just recently moved into the property so our 4 cats were up to mischief exploring and not always coming in for food. Gem set up her own camera to watch them over night to makesure they were still around. Spent far more hours trying to locate the wandering cats and went above and beyond to ensure all our 4 cats were happy and safe. She even managed the renal cats diet perfectly. Would highly recommend. She's more a Saint than a cat sitter. She clearly loves every fur baby like it is her own.
I can’t recommend Gem at Marden Cats enough. She’s trustworthy, reliable and basically a cat whisperer as she genuinely loves cats - even training my cat to sit for treats in about 5 minutes! Gem has looked after Pip for almost 3 years now and will always be my go-to sitter. Pip adores her.
I’ve used Marden Cats a couple of times now and have been so pleased I did so. Gem and her team really really love cats which is the most important part and we were sent little pictures and videos of our cats clearly enjoying their break from us! They were also completely reliable and professional from the off. If you put your cat in Marden cats hands, rest assured they will be very happy.
