It was a joy to have Julie return to care for Frank and our home. She is without a doubt the perfect sitter, loving and loved by our precious dog and looking after the house perfectly. Looking forward to her return when she can next visit Europe.

Sherri was great! There is no drama here! She connected with each of my three dogs and very quickly had them figured out! To say Sherri is the GOAT is an understatement! Everything was as I had left it and the dog children were content!! Sherri please come back!

We love dogs and cats!
Andrea and her son took such good care of our animals, including our cat who has to take pills twice a day for stress. She communicated well, and was so accommodating to some last minute changes in plans. Our house was clean and tidy when we got home. Really a great experience for our first zeewoi getaway.

This is the second time that Liz has watched my girl, Lyra - and like the first time, she did an excellent job! I would definitely have Liz housesit for me anytime. She's fantastic!

Retired military couple want to care for your animals and home
Delinda watched my rabbit, marcus, while I was away. She didn’t have a ton of experience with rabbits but that did not stop her from treating him so well!! sent me daily updates of my rabbit with photos. She even picked some herbs and lettuce from her garden and left them in my fridge to decide if I wanted to give them to Marcus once I returned. I would recommend them to anyone with any kind of animal, they are adaptable and reliable.

This is the second time we have used Ellen and we would definitely welcome her back. House was left cleaner than when she arrived and fur kids were happy when we returned. Ellen communicated regularly before and during sit. We highly recommend her.

Donna was an excellent pet sitter for Buddy! She was reliable, friendly, and we had no worries leaving her alone with Buddy on our trip.

Alyssa took amazing care of our dogs and our home. We appreciated her communication and great pictures during her stay. She even gave Axel a bath when he get into something he shouldn’t have on a walk. We strongly recommend Alyssa for your next house sit.

Jason and Cynthia were fantastic, I'm so glad we found each other! We did a couple video calls before our trip which was very helpful. They were responsive, reliable, took excellent care of our cats, and left the house in great shape. It was so helpful to know things were in great hands while we were traveling. I would definitely recommend them to others!

My first solo male sitter! He was awesome!! Very tidy, loved all my pets and took really good care of them. My dog was just sad when he left. Stood in the drive just staring at his car leaving. He took her on wonderful hikes. All my plants were alive and healthy! Very self sufficient. Interesting and intelligent. He can come back anytime.
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
