Stephanie was one of our favorite zeewoi sitters. For this sit, we were having a tough time finding a good sitter but at the last minute, Stephanie submitted her application and right from the start, we were impressed with everything about her as a person and a sitter. Stephanie promptly replied to our call back from her application which showed her seriousness by having the alerts set up on her phone. Although her sitting resume was just starting, she inspired confidence and her interview went well. Within a matter of a few days, Stephanie got on a plane and headed to Maine where she started a great adventure on our farm. Stephanie managed the property, which is a large antique farm house, with ease. The property and her living quarters were maintained very well and left immaculately clean when she finished her stay. Her communications skills were always spot on and she kept us updated with pictures and texts while we were on the other side of the world. Our indoor animal menagerie includes 2 elder Pomeranians and a bunny all of which have special needs which she attended to very well. She frequently walked them and let the bunny out in the yard for fresh garden delights. The outdoor farm animals are the real test for a sitters’ challenge and Stephanie managed them like a pro. 5 goats and 6 alpacas are a handful for anyone and she seemed to delight in adding this challenge to her variety of experiences. When we returned, the pasture, paddock and shelters were all thoroughly secured and cleaned up better than ever. (Not expected but certainly appreciated) It was very hot while we were away and the extra efforts to keep the animals cool and watered was necessary and she handled it well. Stephanie is very well traveled and has many worldly experiences that we thoroughly enjoyed hearing about. I know Stephanie enjoyed her time visiting the area although her visit here was brief. As a zeewoi sitter, Stephanie was a great fit for our needs and we hope her experience with us has broadened her opportunity to try new sitting experiences. We of course would highly recommend Stephanie as a sitter for any pet and home situation. The animals all loved her special attention. Stephanie is well traveled and easy to trust and inspires confidence in her actions and conversation. We would love to have Stephanie back as a sitter and more importantly as a friend.

Kellie
Nelson was an absolute joy to look after. We would have quite happily stayed longer if needed. Nelson is a very active chap who loves his walks and ball games at the park. I've never seen a dog go so crazy for a ball - it was great fun for all of us! 
Kellie's home was lovely and exactly as described in their listing. There are lots of places to walk Nelson close by, including down by the river which he loves! We felt completely at ease from the moment we met Kellie and her partner, and would happily recommend them to any sitter.

Amanda
Steve and Amanda were both very warm, kind, generous and professional, making us feel at home immediately. The welcome guide is very thorough, detailed and with lots of useful maps, along with manuals for all the appliances, which we found very helpful. The neighbours were all very friendly and helpful too. 
Otto and Monty were both great fun. Monty is exceptionally well-trained, good-natured, very energetic and loves to cuddle up or play. Otto is a lot older but keeps up with Monty in the games and the walks. Otto loves to paw you and be stroked  and can’t get enough of this. Both dogs enjoy to play tug-of-war with sticks and cuddly toys. 
The farm was everything described and more. The house is beautiful and everything you would expect from a country farmhouse. There’s a choice of living rooms and we enjoyed playing games from Steve and Amanda’s collection. The kitchen also is a great place to spend time, with a cosy Esse and a large dining table where we spent a lot of our time enjoying great views from across their fields. The farm is in a fantastic location between the Dales, the Moors, also situated not far from Harrogate, Durham and some great towns and villages like Richmond, Thirsk and Bedale.
All in all this was an amazing and memorable petsit, hosted by a fantastic couple, made easy by such great dogs.

Natalie
This was my first houseitting experience and it was amazing! I had such a great time taking care of Cooper and Natalie was nice enough to let my dog stay at her home as well. We had a great time exploring the neighborhood and getting to experience Denver. Natalie's place is so cool, I loved hanging out on the rooftop and it was truly a pleasure to stay there. Natalie was an excellent host and was easy to communicate with her during our stay. We look forward to returning again in the future!
