Cat Sitters in St Leonards

Callum

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Callum look after our home and our cat, Cloudy, while we were away. He was very communicative, sending plenty of updates about Cloudy throughout our trip. When we returned, the house was immaculate—the bed sheets had been washed, and even the bed was remade. Our cat can be a bit shy with strangers, but it was clear he had developed a strong bond with Callum. We even received a photo of Cloudy sitting on Callum's lap, which is something he rarely does with us! Cloudy was so relaxed when we got home, as if we had never left. We truly cannot recommend Callum highly enough for looking after your house and furry friends. We hope to have him back again soon—Cloudy certainly seems to miss him!

Annabel

Annabel and Nick cared for our home for 5 weeks with no issues and we returned to happy cat, fish, plants and us!!

Janina

Janina was a fantastic housesitter I can highly recommend her

Liz

Liz and Drew were absolutely fantastic. First time I’d used this site and I was nervous but they sent me photos of pet consistently and kept the house and plants up to my very particular standard. Highly recommend them to others.

Sabine

Sabine and Luc were brilliant house and pet sitters. They were really mature, calm, organised and asked pertinent questions. My dog took to them immediately and they were great at sending regular updates and pictures, so I knew Gussie was in good hands. The house was spotless, with fresh flowers picked from the garden and vegetables picked. I would not hesitate to recommend them and would be very happy to have them back. Thanks Sabine & Luc!

Gloria

Gloria came to do a long house sit for me and my sister in law took over at the end. My dogs liked Gloria and she showered a lot of affection on them. The dogs were well cared for with one properly medicated. I had peace of mind leaving my dogs with Gloria as she did a good job. The care of house and garden watering was average/satisfactory. Some outside pots were under watered and at hand over my sister in law had to clean the yard from a fair amount of dog droppings.

Rachel

Rach was great. She was communicative, totally reliable and great with the cats. Max had a fight whilst we were away and she was super attentive and caring in looking after his small injury. She kept me up to speed on things and generally let me know how the cats were. Rach left the house really clean and tidy and even put her sheets and towels on to wash before she left. I'd thoroughly recommend Rach and hope to have her back to sit for us again.

Chloé

Chloé and Guillaume did a fantastic job looking after our house and pet’s while we were away for two weeks. They were very attentive and communicated when issues sprung up during some pretty horrible weather. On our return we found the house just as we left it and beautifully clean with the dogs, chickens and Guinea pigs all happy and healthy. I would totally recommend them for any housesit they were applying for in the future. Very lovely and trustworthy people. Thanks again Chloé and Guillaume!

Micaela & Faustino

Micaela and Faustino are salt of the earth house-and-petsitters. They left our home in better condition than they found it, and the animals were all very happy when we returned (not only because we had returned from our trip, but clearly because they had enjoyed their time with Mica and Faus while we were away, as well!). Highly recommend this lovely couple.

Maru & Belen

Maru and Benu were great sitters. They took the dogs out for walks, sent us regular updates and left our house tidy. I would happily have them sit for us again!

Georgina

Georgina was the best. Looked after our house and Marlowe so well. Sent so many updates, great photos and videos. Marlowe was spoilt rotten and went on so many new adventures. Would highly recommend Georgina.

Catriona

Catriona is a lovely genuine person and I knew that from our first face time chat . She loves nature and animals I never saw my shy cat sky take to someone from day one it’s usually a few days of work and sometimes longer . Catriona had her love from the beginning my furrys were very happy and my plants . The house was kept perfectly and she did a lovely soup to welcome me home . Keep up the great work catriona anyone will be lucky to get you on TSH . I hope to see you again someday .

Suzanne

This was my first experience with zeewoi so I was a little nervous as I was traveling out of the country. After reading Ann's messages and talking to both her and Jim on the phone I knew this would be a good fit.
Ann was very attentive to my senior pets and she let me know right away when my kitty's appetite started to go down. She purchased new kitty food (which thankfully was all that was needed) and kept me informed with daily updates when requested. She took great care of my 18yr old Chihuahua, Sandy who can be a little "special needs".
My house was spotless upon arrival home and both pets were happy and well cared for. 
I would highly recommend Ann and Jim for pet and house sitting and offered to have them back anytime!

Jenny

We would LOVE to have Cristina sit for us again! She was responsive, sent updates about our pup, cared for our home and left things cleaner than she found them. We even found an adorable polaroid photo of Lucy posing waiting for us on our return. Cristina even offered to make an extra trip to check on Lucy if we were going to be later than expected. Wonderful sitter.
