Anna
Arcola, Minnesota
Explorer looking for animals to love and care for on my travel journey.
Anna was a fantastic sitter. She was a great communicator both before and during the stay, and I got lots of great updates with pictures and videos while I was gone. The house was left spotless. Would love to have Anna stay again.

Mark & Deb
What do you say about the repeat house sitters who are already perfect? We were lucky enough to secure Mark and Deb for a 2 month stay. They have sat for us multiple times before, so there was no second guessing (and a little yip of excitement from me and our kitty) when their offer to sit came through. Mark and Deb are great at communicating, very reliable, and fantastic at pet care as seen by multiple pictures showing Ricky being played with and sitting in their laps (we were a little jealous) while we were away. I think Mark and Deb are true cat lovers. A 2 month sit means real life living, not just a few days or a week. I mean they had to eat and shower, right? We came home to a house that was so neat and clean we couldn't tell they were there except for the notes they left behind. They reached out with questions or concerns, let us know when packages arrived, took out the garbage, did all the asks like plant watering and filling bird feeders outside, and took great care of our little Ricky. If you're lucky enough to get them, go for it. Mark and Deb are always welcome at our house.
Sharon
Arcola, Minnesota
Responsible, Compassionate Cat Cuddling Couple Want to Give You Peace of Mind
Sharon is very organised and it was an easy job to set the first meeting between her and the cats. Sharon sent me photos and anecdotes daily and if she had any doubts about the cats behaviour she would ask me by message. Her messages were always sweet and full of details, which I really appreciated. I knew my cats and my apartment were in good hands and with the most reliable person. I returned to a clean apartment - cleaner that when I left even if she would probably deny it :-) - and to happy cats who, I could see it in their eyes, were wondering why the lady was not staying longer with them ! I highly recommend Sharon and hope to have her return in the future.
Sarah
Arcola, Minnesota
Mother & daughter seeking memories with furry friends and people in spring 2024
What can we say about this lovely family?! We had the pleasure of having Sarah, Xavier and their adult daughter Caroline take care of our 3 doxies, and home for 2 weeks while we were in Italy. We fell in love with them from our first zoom meet to the sad goodbye when we returned. We came home to happy tail wagging pups and a spic and span home. Sarah sent us updates with photos that helped to make our trip fun and worry free. We can not recommend this wonderful trio enough. You may not get lucky enough to get the 3 of them together, but even as a pair, or single sitter you can't go wrong! Thank you again Sarah, Xavier and Caroline, we can't wait to have you back!
Jaci
Arcola, Minnesota
Empty nesters who want to care for your babies
Jaci and Jerry were delightful and resilient sitters. We were off-line (in a remote area) for most of the week we were away and unable to communicate so they HAD to figure things out for themselves, and they did. On top of that, our power went out 24 hours before we returned, but they rolled with it even though I know it wasn't easy. I know the dogs were well loved and well taken care of in our absence, and the house was tidy and in order. All good!
Amy
Arcola, Minnesota
Mom and twelve-year-old son who love all animals!
Amy did a great job caring for our home and pets last week. Everything was in good order when we returned. Both the barn and house were very clean and tidy, and she helped reorganize my pantry (which was in rough shape after significant entertaining over the holidays.) Even with the cold temperatures and snowfall, she was able to keep up with the outdoor chores and manure management in the paddocks. Skipper, Apollo and Riba enjoyed all the extra attention she gave them. It was also very nice to be welcomed back with a bag of groceries that we enjoyed over a couple of days. Thanks Amy! It was great to travel worry free!
Kari
Arcola, Minnesota
Respectful animal, plant, flower, and nature lover!!
This is your dog sitter. Kari just left yesterday and when we walked in to an immaculate clean house and very satisfied dogs, I knew we picked the right sitter. She was in touch daily with details and sending pictures. So glad she made the trip to California as we couldn't have picked anyone better. Thank you Kari for giving us a great vacation knowing our fur babies were well taken care of. So much love and appreciation for taking care of our house and dogs!
Lisa
Arcola, Minnesota
Lisa & Mitch DeMarais - empty nesters
Lisa and Mitch just completed a second sit with our dog, Tinsley, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Because she was in their capable hands, we did not worry about her for a minute and were able to enjoy a carefree vacation. Communication before and during the sit was wonderful, and we appreciated Lisa's frequent updates and photos of a happy Tinsley enjoying her time with them. When we returned, the house was spotless and our dog was obviously well looked after. Lisa and Mitch are a delightful couple, and we are happy that our paths crossed. We highly recommend them as wonderful and zeewoi!
McKenzie
Arcola, Minnesota
Young, professional couple that loves animals and traveling!
McKenzie and Patrick were very self sufficient and took great care of Samee and my house.
Maeve
Arcola, Minnesota
Caring + Communicative Sitter for Pets, Plants, & Homes!
Maeve stayed with my dog Juno for a month, and I was never worried about Juno getting the best of care. Maeve even had to deal with my furnace going on the fritz during the coldest week (in January in Minneapolis!) and took it like a champ! I highly recommend Maeve as a sitter.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Ellie
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!
Mike
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
Diana
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would.
Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned.
I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
Esther
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Nina
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Ann
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
SARA
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Claire
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
Paola
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
