Pet Sitters in Watford

Taryn

Taryn and her mother m Emma looked after our home and pets for two weeks. They were utterly wonderful and we just felt so comfortable leaving them in charge of our animals and our home whilst we were away. They were just so friendly and kind. We would definitely recommend them for house sitting. Thank you both

Amy

Amy and Harry were fantastic house and pet sitters - throughout I found them friendly, reliable and good with communication. They looked after our house so well and our cat was relaxed and content with them. Amy was even as kind to organise some milk and bread in the house for our return which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Amy & Harry!

Kerena & Delmer

Kerena arrived promptly as arranged, kept me updated on our hens and left our home clean and tidy.

Laura & Emil

Laura was an excellent cat sitter and kept me updated on how kitty was doing. I got photos and was assured she was getting lots of love and attention. Laura left the house really clean and tidy and even sent a handover list of everything in the house and with kitty for my return. Super efficient and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Laura.

Farah

Farah was wonderful with my cat Poulette, she learnt how to do the injections (my cat has diabetes) and kept the flat very clean. Thanks 😊

Janet

Jan was a great sitter, the cat clearly loved her and from the state of her coat when we got back had managed to train her better than us to groom her on request (or order!). House was lovely to come home to as well. Highly recommended!

Gina & Pat

Gina and Pat agreed to house sit for us for a third time, and in very short succession to their last house sit in our home. Gina and Pat are such lovely people, we are completely overwhelmed by the kindness they have shown. They yet again did more than what we would have expected in order to keep the cats' routines and house running as if we weren't away. We were sent regular photo and video updates. Cassie was up even earlier than normal demanding love, attention and company. Kiki brought in a few more "gifts" than we were hoping. Gina and Pat dealt with these situations with tolerance and humour. Gina and Pat are such genuinely lovely people. and we owe them so much for all they have done. Kiki and Cassie are missing them already. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Karen & Brendan

I thought they were brilliant and at relatively short notice, they were in touch on a regular basis much to the joy of my kids. When you come home and the dogs are almost disappointed to see you, you know they’ve been well cared for. Absolutely brilliant

Debra

Thank you very much, Debra, for looking after Henry so well and taking an interest in his various routines and habits. Henry clearly took to you, and we certainly appreciated the regular photos and videos. We hope to see you and Bearsac again before too long. Safe travels! 🐻

Virginia

Ginya was the perfect sitter! She took great care of Coco (in fact I think he’s been looking for her since she left!), sent regular photos and updates and was totally self-sufficient during her stay, leaving my place impeccably clean and tidy.

Nicola

This was my first experience of using zeewoi to look after my two dogs and I think I was very lucky to get Nicola and Darren first time. They arrived in time for me to introduce them to the dogs and to show them around. They were very happy to take on some extra tasks as well as looking after the dogs and the house. Maud is epileptic and she and Stan both need medication. When Stan needed a tick removed and when Maud had a seizure, Nicola and Darren reacted in a calm and sensible way and kept in touch with me. I was very reassured by them and when I got home the dogs were happy, the house was clean and tidy and there were some nice supplies for me in the fridge. I'm extremely grateful to Nicola and Darren and couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Magenta

Absolutely one of the loveliest humans you will meet. She arrived early to meet us and get to know the cats before we left the next day on holiday. I have two needy shadow cats and Magenta quickly learned all their quirks and was absolutely brilliant befriending them; they clearly quickly trusted her and she was fabulous sending updates to reassure me that all was well. Wonderfully communicative, very friendly and appreciative of the company of animals; Magenta is an absolute dream and I'm so thrilled to have found her. I couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter/companion/friend for my precious fur babies. Thank you so much x

Julia & Elena

I had an amazing time at Julia and Elena’s place! 
Julia and Elena were very welcoming and made me feel right at home. They even invited me over the day before their trip, so we could have dinner together and get to know each other before they left. 
Fluffi and Balu are two sweet, easy-going cats who will steal your heart. They both love playing with their toy feather and being brushed in the evening! It was so nice having these two companions during my stay in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Julia and Elena’s apartment is very comfortable and has everything you need, plus it has a spectacular view of the mountains! The surrounding area is beautiful, and a lot of walking and cycling trails are easy to reach without a car. In short, this was an incredible experience and I would definitely recommend this house sit!

Elaine & Greg

We had the best time with Wags and Panda, they are both cuddly and gave us so much love. the property is so beautiful, the most beautiful garden i’ve ever seen. it was so good being outside with the dogs, they love company so they follow you almost everywhere they’re so cute. Panda was scared of the stormy weather and wanted us inside whenever a storm was hitting! It was easy to absolutely fall in love with them 🥹
The little walks are also cool as the surrounding is really peaceful. Lot of birds and butterflies. 
Communication with Elaine and Greg was great, we would love to come again. 
thank you for having us to look after your dogs, 
we’ve loved everything.

Alison

We loved looking after Buda. He was a really sweet dog and very easy to care for. The kids really got the knack of walking him and playing with him, especially with his tennis ball. Thanks for having us to stay. We felt very relaxed and settled in your beautiful home. We all enjoyed building fires and watching the local bird life in your garden. Your instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Thanks also for the wine and chocolates. They were throughly appreciated!

CJ & Ben

I spent 4 wonderful weeks at CJ and Ben's, looking after their two very sweet cats. 
LaFawnduh is very affectionate and cuddly, Champagne was a bit shy at first, but I quickly gained his trust, and he became a purring machine :)
I was worried about letting him outdoors, but I shouldn't have - he only hangs around the patio or the neighbours' garden. 
The apartment is great - very comfortable, spacious and quiet, especially for NYC standards! It's just a few minute walk to the subway, lots of delis and take aways in the area. Frequently walked around on my own at night and never felt uneasy.
CJ and Ben were quick to respond to my messages and questions, and very kindly let my friend join me for a couple of days :)
Thank you again and hope to see you all soon!
