Margaret and her boyfriend stayed at my house while I was out of the country for 3 weeks. It seemed like a good fit but was booked very last minute because the sitters originally scheduled had a medical emergency and had to cancel. My welcome document in zeewoi is very detailed and I have had only phenomenal experiences with past sitters. I let them know my Golden is a food hound and will eat any food left out (we have tried training... he's very sweet but is a counter surfer). I received a text in the middle of the night that he ate an entire pizza they left on the counter and were not sure what to do, so they took him to the ER and incurred a $700 bill (which I paid). I am a veterinarian. He did not need to go to an ER. But moving on about a week or so later - very few updates in 2 weeks until I received another middle of the night text that she would need to leave to meet her boyfriend (who had already left) in FL because his Grandfather was ill. She said she arranged for my mother (whose phone number she had) to take over caring for the dogs. I asked her to let me know when she would be leaving so I could make arrangements for a petsitter because my Mom was not the best choice. Then I came to find out from my Mom that she called her AFTER leaving my pets at home on her way to the airport in an Uber!!!! She literally abandoned my pets and home, called my Mom after leaving hoping she would take over AND THEN texted me in the middle of the night in a foreign country!!!! She failed to respond to any of the messages sent by Zeewoi to explain herself. As if that wasn't bad enough, when my Mom did arrive to walk my dogs my house was a total mess! Dirty linens, the floor hadn't been vacuumed at all and dog hair was everywhere, there were dirty dishes in the sink and dishwasher... I left her a SPOTLESS home and she left my house dirty, my dogs uncared for and cost me a $700 vet bill and another housekeeping visit. I sincerely hope she will never be allowed to accept another sit with this organization or any other.

This is the second time that Toma sat for us and we were so happy to have her return. Toma has such a calm and friendly manner about her and the cats really enjoyed having cuddles and recieving fuss.

We were on our way to a festival and were quite rushed with packing and leaving. Toma helpfully even held our infant son as we rushed around the place :)

When we returned the house was spotless and we were sent lots of pictures or the cats enjoying their extended weekend with Toma.

We would highly recommend Toma ad a house or pet sitter. She's brilliant!

Jan and Rod are a lovely couple who came to house sit for our smallholding in South Scotland while we took a short break. Jan and Rod kindly arrived the afternoon before we left, and we showed them around. Due to the very stormy weather (storm Desmond) Jan and Rod had to cope with snow on their arrival, followed by persistent wind and rain, so there were quite a lot of tasks for them. This involved feeding of animals, including taking hay each day to the sheep and ponies, feeding hens and walking our 2 dogs. We felt comfortable leaving everything with Jan and Rod. Rod was in charge of lighting the eco boiler each day. We came home to well cared for animals and a warm and tidy house. They did a great job (including keeping in touch while we were away). Thanks Jan and Rod!

Debbie was really lovely and we met her before so she could meet Tallulah and they got on very well! She was flexible with our times and left the flat in a great condition, would highly recommend.
