Cat Sitters in York

Zameret

Zameret was amazing as always!

Ana Beatriz & Daniel Jose

Dani and Bea were the perfect sitters for my first zeewoi experience! Communication was smooth, they were proactive in setting up a call and an in-person meeting ahead of my dates. While I was away they sent lots of photos and updates so I never had to worry about Banana and Kuzco. Upon returning the apartment was cleaner than I left it, and the cats were happy, healthy, and energetic as usual. They are welcome to stay anytime!

Tatianna & Paul

Tatianna and her family looked after our pets for our Christmas and New Years break. From the begining, Tatianna was easy to communicate and flexible. They whole family is very caring and even our rather shy cat got very affectionate and loved their company . We would love to have them again in the future, looking after our loved ones!

Estela

I had a great experience with the lovely Estela! She was very reliable, kind, communicative, and easy to talk to. She took great care of my cat, Nairobi, for the week that I was away and sent me some lovely photos of Nairobi over the course of the few days. My apartment was super clean when I got back, and everything was in order. I couldn't have asked for more :)

Giulia

Giulia arranged to meet us with our dog Cobi in advance, in our house, to become familiar with everything. We immediately felt positive vibes. We returned home from our trip to a happy dog and a very clean home and a debriefing with Giulia. We even got positive feedback from the neighbours who met Giulia walking Cobi. We would have Giulia back in a heartbeat, no reservations!

Shaunna

Shaunna was very caring and attentive to Nyx. She spent lots of time with her. I would definitely have her again!

Briann

We cannot say enough good things about Bri - what a lovely young lady! We would highly recommend her for any pet sitting jobs. Our two cats were well take care of and I am pretty sure they are missing her. We hope to have her back! Thanks so very much Bri!

Travis

Travis and Harriet are amazing pet sitters!! We enjoyed meeting them before we left on holiday and we were confident right away that they would take wonderful care of our dog Juno and our home. They are friendly, energetic, caring and responsible and were a perfect fit for our affectionate dog. We did a walk-though of our home and all the responsibilities and they had clearly already read the welcome guide and were prepared and interested. We were happy to get frequent updates and pictures of Juno having a wonderful time in the neighbourhood and snuggled up comfortably with them at home - her favourite thing in the world! They took great care of our home and left everything tidy, clean and perfect. Travis and Harriet are wonderful people and fantastic pet sitters and I recommend them very highly. We would love to have them sit for us again anytime!

Christopher

Christopher was an incredible pet sitter that would recommend to everyone. The dog was well cared for and happy. Christopher left the house immaculate. Christopher also took great care of my plants. I’m also very grateful for Christopher because we’re currently selling our house and he had no issues with any of the showings. Shannon (my dog) absolutely loved Christopher. he really understands animals and cares a lot for them. Christopher has great communication and kept me updated through my entire trip. I feel very lucky that I was able to have had someone as professional and caring as Christopher.

Robert

Robert was a great house and pet sitter! He made an effort to get to know our very nervous cat and took impeccable care of both her and our home.

Helen

We were so lucky to have Helen looking after our kitties. She was great - very easy to communicate with, kept our place neat and tidy, and got along really well with both our cats. She made sure to give them scritches and cuddles and share updates and pictures with us. We came back to a very clean and tidy place and she made sure to give the cats dinner before she left in case we were delayed. We would definitely love to have Helen staying at our place again.

Arlene

Arlene was an incredible companion for our cat Boots. She has a natural affinity for animals which was evident right from our first interaction with her. She was super clear in all her communication with us, prior, during and after the sit. She was extremely thoughtful in how she took care of Boots, and our home. We cannot recommend her more highly - thank you Arlene!

Cathy

Delighted to have the lovely Caroline and Rob back for a second time. So nice to be able to call upon someone the dogs know and house dog Lady definitely remembered the cuddles from last time!
Caroline is brilliant about sending little videos and updates, so we know everyone is ok, and also very good about asking questions if there’s anything she’s not sure of.
The house was left in immaculate condition. Lady is missing the cuddles already!
Really hope to welcome Caroline and Rob back soon.

Melita

Sherry was a great house sitter. She was very sweet, responsive and clean. My cats seemed to love her. I would highly recommend!
