I have not been looking forward to writing this review for Irene and Henry. Because I was not looking forward to be reminded of the turmoil we went through while they were sitting house for us. Irene and Henry had signed up to stay in our home and with our dogs for 9,5 weeks. They knew it was winter in Germany, one of the first things we asked them, if they knew how dark and gray it is and that it can be cold. They had no problem with that. 2 weeks into the sit they said they could not walk our dogs twice a day any more, only once - since they were too tired. They asked for help with the second walk, which we then organized from abroad. Also after two weeks they said, they would have to cut the sit short and would be leaving our home 4,5 weeks early. We should start looking for a replacement. This came as such a shock to us, that at first we refused a replacement. With time and the loving support of the zeewoi staff we started looking for a replacement. Of course there was no one there on such short notice. The hours we spent dealing with finding someone new - this is nothing anyone should have to go through. In the end a friend took our dogs when Irene and Henry left our house and their sit early. Irene and Henry sent us pictures and comments about our dogs regularly. Our house was as clean as when we left it. The plants were well. We were contemplating leaving the zeewoi Community after this painful experience. Our trust was shaken. But, we decided to stay and remember the first two perfect experiences we had with our other sitters, whom we still are in touch with and feel loving and close with.

Josephine house/pet sat for me for 10 days. Her responsibilities included caring for two, high energy dogs, a cat, and a guinea pig. She was also asked to water the garden every few days. 
I had already met and confirmed the sit with Josephine when her first review came out. She was very open about it and it sounded like a unique sit. I can speak frankly and say my experience with Josephine was the complete opposite- she was very communicative, shared updates and photos, and when she had an issue she would immediately reach out. My pets loved her, and when I came ho,e the house was tidy, and she had already washed all the bedding and linens, which was above and beyond. Josephine is great with dogs, having been around them her entire life. My pups still need a firm hand (they just turned 1 and need their commands reinforced) and she was kind, caring, and firm with them. Josephine is very sweet and caring, and I admire her bravery to travel the world on her own and learn English. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible and capable sitter.

We would like to thank Frances and Anthony for doing a great job in looking after our animals and home. It was lovely to arrive home and find everything as we had left it. The dogs had really enjoyed 2 walks a day. We would highly recommend them.
Thank you again.
