Pet Sitters in Whitworth

Lauren

This was the third time Lauren and Chris sat for us. We had total confidence in their ability to care for our cat, dog, house and garden. They are both wonderful in communication, flexibility and organisation. And most importantly, total kindness and understanding with our pets. We're just sad they are leaving the UK soon to return to Australia. We hope they might be back! .

Rhian & Joel

Joel and Rhian looked after our house and Doggo Baily and Phyllis the cat ! They did an amazing job and are lovely, interesting people, we really enjoyed their company. They communicated really well before, during and after the sit. They came to the house the evening before to meet Baily and Phyllis and for a tour of the house and local area and we all went out for dinner too, which was awesome too ! We really appreciate spending time with sitters before we go away :) They sent us regular "pupdates" which we loved, and this reassurred us that all was well. What we really appreciated was they were extra cautious with Baily, keeping him on a lead at all times as he can get a bit nervous and his recall can be inconsistent at times. Baily can also be very mischievious and always up to tricks which Joel and Rhian managed so well and they loved his character, cuddles and personality. Phyllis and Baily were both happy and relaxed on our return too. Our house was left clean and tidy and the bedding and towels washed etc and Rhian made us Cookies, a lovely touch and appreciated, as Russ loves Cookies, well anything sweet really...!! Would highly recommend Rhian and Joel as House Sitters and we would definitely love to have them sit for us again, and hope to stay in touch with them :)

Misodzi

Misodzi was a perfect house sitter. She took great care of our house and our cats- in particular our cats were clearly very at ease and comfortable around her which they are not always with new people. She sent us lots of updates as requested and she was generally very organised and communicative. Misodzi is welcome to come stay any time and we would definitely recommend her as a sitter.

Maysoon

This was our first time with Zeewoi and we were hugely impressed by Maysoon and Mark. All their other lovely reviews are absolutely right, we returned to a spotless house and to two very happy and plump beloved dogs (and the same for the fish!) Thank you to you both for all your care and professionalism - I encourage you to choose them, you won't be disappointed. Susannah & Michalis xx

James

James took care of our slightly chaotic, remote homestead on an island in the Azores. He arrived the day before we left and had to take in quite a lot of information about our systems here. The cats were well cared for, the geese and chickens were all happy, and our home was just as we had left it. I didn't manage to deeply mulch our garden before we left, but James managed to keep things alive by watering every few days which we are very grateful for, as it was a very hot and dry couple of weeks. We would welcome James back at any time to look after our place.

Aimee

What a lovely family! Aimee and John came with their beautiful children Jake and Ruby. They love dogs- their own dog staying at home being treated by granny. They sent lots of photos showing Bluey having lots of cuddles. They also left our house in perfect condition and even a gift and card for us! We were very lucky to have them and hope they have lots of holidays near and far. They would be welcome back at our house anytime

Georgina

What a fantastic couple! They looked after our animals so well, dedicated to them in fact! Always putting them first, in whatever activity they were doing. Even looking for our escapee’s, the tortoises 🤣 The fact that they are avid footballer fans was a bonus. They left our house spotless and cooked us lunch for our return, even thinking of my dietary choices 🤣 I would highly recommend Georgina and Tim to look after your pets. I wish them so much fun on their travels.

Danielle

Reg had recently had an operation so was still recovering, it was great to have Danielle, a vet nurse, to keep an eye on him. Came home to a clean house and a very happy cat.

Anna & Tom

Anna and Tom were perfect house/dog sitters, probably the best we've ever had - and we've always had good ones. We returned home to happy dogs, clean house, sheets and towels washed, tulips and daffodils and even a bottle of wine. What a welcome! We had regular WhatsApps with photos and the dogs had obviously had a wonderful time with them, with lots of lovely company as they both work from home. We cannot recommend them too highly and we just hope they can come again. In fact we'd really like them here permanently!

Sonya

Sonya is a very pleasant, self assured, highly respectful and kind young lady. From first meeting my animals they, my dogs especially took to her. By the time we returned even both cats were snuggling up to her, completely unheard of…. My house was absolutely as we left it, so perfectly in order too. I can’t rate Sonya highly enough, she was a real treasure and I certainly would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone or have her back here…. Good luck Sonya on your future endeavours and within the zeewoi network.

Libby

We cannot recommend Libby enough! She took such great care of both Bandit and our home. She was very respectful and left our clean and tidy for when we got home. It was really easy to arrange a catch up with Libby beforehand to go through any queries, then she kept us updated with some photos of Bandit when we were away. We couldn't have asked for more and would welcome Libby back for future sits without hesitation.

Stephanie

Stephanie took great care of our cat, Sesame. She left a daily log of her time with Sesame and took on her daily routine without any interruption. She was also especially patient and flexible to a number of unexpected situations that came up (the water got cut off for emergency repairs one day, and we mixed up our return date and came back earlier than expected). We would welcome her back anytime!

Katrina

Sara was AWESOME!  We have a puppy and two kitties, and lots of plants.  When we got back everyone was happy and healthy, and the house was cleaner then when we left!  Sarah even baked us a chamomile cake!  Sarah was a pleasure to talk to, and always responded immediately to texts.  I highly recommend Sarah for your housesit!

Kelly

We had a wonderful experience taking care of Kelly and Ankur's home and their cats, Samantha and Josie. Samantha, the indoor cat, greeted us with warmly, then would greet my son in the mornings until he sat down for his breakfast.. After which, she spent the rest of the days snacking and napping (which included adorable snoring coming from the office closet! lol), making for a relaxed atmosphere. 

Josie, the shy outdoor cat, patiently waited for her meals, adding a touch of charm to our stay. 

The house itself is lovely, with vast views of the Bay and San Francisco skyline. The cozy interior and modern amenities made it a perfect getaway. 

Kelly's detailed instructions made everything easy, and we felt very welcomed. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Sally

Tom and I thoroughly enjoyed our time staying in Sally's lovely home and looking after her amazing cats Kato and Thea. 

Sally was warm and welcoming. She picked us up from the train station and showed us around her home before she left for her holiday. We really appreciated her hospitality - she left us plenty of useful information in her Welcome Guide, and provided everything we needed (even some milk and items of food which was unexpected but such a nice gesture!)

Sally's house is nice and clean, and provided a great base for exploring Oxford, with a bus stop right outside and direct route to the city.  On sunny days we walked to the city (takes about an hour) and we felt very safe in her local village, where the neighbours are approachable and friendly. 

Kato and Thea were initially shy but within 24 hours had warmed up to us, giving lots of cuddles and wanting to be around us all the time. They were entertaining (as Bengals usually are) and on rainy days we enjoyed quiet days indoors playing with the cats. 

Would highly recommend Sally to all house-sitters, and we would happily come again if we ever return to Oxford.

Elizabeth

I loved pet sitting for Bullet! He is such a sweet boy, and I bonded so well with him over the 5 days Liza and Adi were out of town.  I had no issues with him or the apartment what-so-ever! He’s the perfect dog, and their apartment is so comfy with amazing city views. It’s right by Barclays Center in a great location in Park Slope. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Liza and Adi are both super nice as well. Highly recommend pet sitting for them! :) 5 stars all around!

Lisa

Lisa's house in South Seattle is comfortable and has a great picture window to watch the sunrise and the location makes for an easy drive to downtown. The two cats are a blast. Trixie and Simon are very sweet and love to play- Trixie actually plays fetch with a paper ball. At night they will curl up into you and sleep. There was a bit of uncertainty over whether or not the sit would happen due to extreme weather and Lisa was an excellent communicator throughout. An easy, affectionate-cat-filled sit.

Georgie

Georgie and Andrew are such lovely and welcoming people. Staying at their home felt like a holiday being in such a beautiful space! Their pup Max is such a sweetheart! He loves cuddles, being around people and playing fetch in the hallway. He is such a good walker on the lead and there are many beautiful park trails nearby to take him to.
Thank you so much, I would definitely recommend and hope to see you all soon!

Susan

Second time pet/house sitting for this family. Enjoyed the fur animals and Susan was a pleasure to communicate with.
