Cat Sitters in Thorner

Michelle & Craig

Michelle and Craig looked after our three cats over two nights in the new year - it all went smoothly and we returned to a very clean and tidy house and happy cats. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

Hanna & Larnia

Hanna and Larnia were so kind and thoughtful and looked after Rebel very well and even bought him presents. Nothing was too much trouble for them And they came to stay the night before we left which helped us as we had early morning flights. They even came a day early than originally booked as I had got the day wrong . The house was left clean and tidy which was lovely to come back to. We would highly recommend them they are delightful girls who dote on animals. We feel very lucky to have found them.

Ana Carolina & Thiago

Ana and her Family were brilliant. Great communication and updates from her whilst we were away. Would definitely recommend.

Rhiannon

Rhiannon and Luke were amazing . Right from the first contact we trusted each other . When they arrived we had lunch together at my home , which was very ‘gezellig’ as we say in Dutch, cozy. They were sweet to Fay , walked a lot with her . Charming couple, easy going and calm . Contact , photo’s when needed. At my return Fay was calm , the house was super clean. I would highly recommend them thank you for coming . Hope to see you again . Angelique

Melita

Melita is an outstanding housesitter and all-round lovely person. She came to visit us twice beforehand to get to know our pets. She kept in contact throughout the holiday, did all the washing even made us a vegan chilli for our return. Our holiday was made so much more relaxing knowing Melita was in charge. Even a veterinary emergency was dealt with sensitively and capably. We honestly could not have asked for anyone better. She’s an absolute star!

Anneka

Anneka and Barry were wonderful pet sitters. They visited us in advance to make sure they knew our regular walking routes, as well as the quirks of the house! During the sit they kept us well updated with photos and I felt confident that Albert was being looked after and loved as if he was their own.

Christine

We highly recommend. Christine was a fantastic dog and house sitter for 3 weeks. Her presence allowed our family to have the holiday of a lifetime without any concerns or worries. Leaving a young dog for such a long time was a worry for us and Christine was amazing. In our return the house was tidier than when we left, our Pomeranian Mini was given undivided attention and Christine went the extra mile - literally- taking Mini on daily adventures and walks. They travelled the Lake District by car and bus and Mini, loved it. Christine was communicative before the sit, organised her travel around our journey time and put us at ease immediately. During the 3 weeks Christine kept us updated with messages and pictures which was great. She didn’t want to impose on our holiday so agreed with us beforehand how often she would update us, which was lovely as she gave us the preference. The household is busy with cleaners and deliveries and mechanics picking up vehicles for service etc and she accommodated these and many other considerations with ease and calm.

Amanda

Amanda was a brilliant sitter and darling girl from top to tail! She is a dream sitter totally immaculate and the cats and I adore her and can't wait to visit with her in October. She is 11 out of 10 and the babies miss her already too! Big Love to Amanda x

Poppy & David

Poppy and David were clearly very experienced with animals and even our pickiest pet took to them immediately! We also got some awesome action shot photos of the pets while we were gone. Both authentic and kind people, we definitely recommend them for a sit!

Howard & Beverley

Howard and Beverley are new to zeewoi but I'm sure they will be in great demand in the future. We had lunch together before we went away and it was a real pleasure to meet them and we felt reassured that our three cats and our home would be in the best possible hands. We came home to an immaculate home, three chilled cats and a sweet note of thanks with a box of chocolates. We do hope they will come again.

Jo

Jo was super friendly and helpful, coming over to see me before the sit to be shown around and meet Ruby. She was also very diligent, keeping in touch as agreed and the house was very clean and tidy on my return. Ruby is always a bit reticent with new people but seemed perfectly happy on my return so I was happy too! Would recommend. Thanks Jo :)

Mike & Cassie

This is the third stay by Mike & Cassie and we couldn’t be happier. This time we weren’t able to do a handover but were confident in their ability to settle right in to Niska’s routine when they arrived. I received regular pictures and updates on how she was doing and she looked so happy all the time. The house was spotless too which is always a bonus on a return from holiday. Mike and Cassie will always be welcome, Niska clearly loves them which is good enough for me.

Kira

Cindy was such a lovely guest in our home. The contact with Cindy was friendly, engaging and uncomplicated right from the start.

We had a nice video call and got to know each other very well.
Cindy was already in our home town for another housesit, so she came round a few days before the start of the sit. This allowed us to get to know each other personally and I was able to show her everything and hand over the keys. Cindy immediately had a great connection and a good feeling for our 3 cats. The cats were very interested in Cindy and even our shy cat behaved very relaxed with Cindy around.

While we were away, Cindy provided us with photos and videos and kept us regularly up to date. If there were any questions during our holiday, these were easily clarified via Messenger.

On our return, the house was tidy and clean and as we left. Cindy had looked after our cats and home very well. The cats seemed content, happy and well fed (our skinny cat even gained a pound, which is great!). Cindy had completed every task that we asked her for and felt very good in our home.

The handover was easy and uncomplicated. For the next two days, our cats kept checking the guest room to see if Cindy was still there.

I had a very good feeling about Cindy throughout. She was so welcoming, trustworthy, approachable and the communication (in English) was easy and without any issues. I would invite Cindy back at any time and can recommend her without hesitation!
