Cat Sitters in Winteringham

niketa

A very friendly, kind and caring sitter. Niketa was extremely comfortable around both our dogs and elderly cat. When I got home she’d even washed her bedding! Thank you Niketa.

Becky & Chris

This is the second time that Becky and Chris have sat for me. The dogs were very relaxed when I got back, and it was great to know that they were in safe hands, especially as I was in an area of the Lake District with no mobile phone signal. House was immaculate, bedding stripped amd washed. Heaven! Thank you Becky and look forward to you coming to stay again in the future.

Margaret

Margaret came with her friend Di. I cannot heap enough praise on them. They left the house in perfect order and the cat had such a good time that he was underwhelmed when I returned. They went beyond the call of duty with some serious weeding in the garden. I was delighted on my return. I would love to welcome them back again. Thanks.

Viola

Viola is a great sitter!!! We had immediately a connection, nice and clean communication. She took great care of both Micia and the house! Gave me updates and sent me pics of Micia as frequently as requested. I hope to meet her again and would love to have her taking care of Micia again!

Annie & Toby

From the moment we first read Annie and Tobys request to look after our two beautiful weimaraners we just knew they would be perfect and we were spot on. Great big happy excited smiles, full of enthusiasm, a willingness to listen to our requests and to take into account the dogs needs. Leaving Indi and Sterling behind whilst we travelled became painless and this wonderful pair kept us updated with photos, videos and questions when they were unsure about anything. They even asked if we would rather not be updated daily as they were concerned that we may get upset at missing our two...so sweet. Now they're both off on their big ad venture to explore the world whilst spreading their energy and positivity into the lives and homes of other pet owners and we wish them all the best in their travels. Thoroughly recommended. 5 stars is not enough for these two!

Anya

Anya was wonderful. Our dogs were completely at ease with her (and possibly didn't want her to leave!). We'd happily have her sit for us again.

Eleanor

Eleanor is a wonderful caring sitter. Gypsy was very happy and relaxed throughout the stay and my home and garden were looked after. I highly recommend Eleanor and would happily have her back.

Karma

Highly recommend this lovely self-sufficient couple Maya was very relaxed and happy upon my return and such a pleasure to walk in to a spotlessly clean house! Many thanks for your support and kindness

Stephen & Ellis

The house was really clean when we arrived home and the dogs were happy. Thank you both for taking care of the girls 🐈‍⬛ 🐕 🐕 It’s not enough to give anything less than 5 stars but we hoped for more updates without having to ask. That being said, they were really responsive when we did ask. Thank you 🙏🏻

Ketllen & Gabriela

Ketllen and Gabriela looked after our house and 2 dogs while we were away, they did an excellent job and we were really pleased . Both ladies sent regular updates and photos and they clearly enjoyed their time at our home with the dogs. The house was well looked after, cleaned before our return, they even cut the grass. It was a pleasure to have them stay, Its a shame they live in another country as we would love to ask them again. Absolutely recommend them both to sit for you

Jack

Jack stepped in for a last minute, short term booking. He arrived on time and kept me up to date with things while I was away. Upon my return my flat was in great shape and he’d even washed the bedclothes and towels. Most importantly he took care of Fizz and she was happy!

Rachael

Rachael was wonderful - she looked after the dogs, cats, fish and chickens! I came back to a house that was spotless, dogs happy and the fish had been cleaned out! It was such a relief as I find it hard to leave my pets when I go away - but they were very well looked after.

Sarah

Linda stayed at our home for just over two weeks and took fantastic care of our home and animals (and car) while we were away! You can tell she truly loves animals and is attuned to their needs, and we were so happy she enjoyed staying with our furry crew. She gave the cats lots of love and attention, and she and our dog Maggie seemed to be best buds while she was here. We appreciated the detailed status updates and pictures she sent. Furthermore, she took great care of our home, leaving it so tidy upon our return. She even washed our sheets knowing we arrived home late in the evening and would want to crash right away - very thoughtful! Because of our flight arrangements, we didn't have a chance to overlap and so all of our communication was by text and phone call. Given that this was one of our first sits, a takeaway is that it is better to cross paths in-person before a long sit, because some of our written communication ended up being unclear. Linda has done a lot of house sits and gave us great advice and feedback on little things we could do in the future to make future sitters' stays more comfortable, as well as ideas to make our animals even happier. For example, we've started to add a little hot flavored water to our dog's food after Linda had success with it and Maggie loves it!

Michael

This was our first experience with zeewoi and Dania did a fantastic job taking care of our babies. She arrived on time the day before we left and we were able to spend a couple of hours getting to know each other. She asked excellent questions and left us feeling very confident that everything was going to be just fine. She kept us informed daily with texts and pictures. Our little Tibetan terrier can be a picky eater and Dania discovered that if she heated her food (kibble, ground beef and rice) up in the microwave for a few seconds she was way more interested! Wow, good to know! The dogs (and chickens) were in great spirits when we got home and the whole thing was a really seamless process. We highly recommend Dania.
