Cats and dogs love me!!
Chantal is an experienced pet sitter which was important to us. Our cats were happy and relaxed when we arrived home and our home was clean with everything in place. It was so refreshing to have someone respectful that you can trust with your pets and your home. We had a bit of a hiccup at the beginning but Chantal kept us informed and we worked it out. She seems to be a busy lady but followed through on her commitment. I would have preferred a few more pictures/communications about the cats specifically, but the trip was a short one so it was not a problem. We could see from what she sent that the cats were comfortable with her. We highly recommend Chantal and would invite her again to sit for us.

RETIRED LIBRARIAN LOOKING FOR HER NEXT BOOKING
Charlotte is one amazing lady! If there were more than five stars I would give them to her. She is organized, clean, tidy, caring, communicative, trustworthy and loving. She absolutely loves our goldendoodle and treats her like her own dog. She has become part of our family! I can not say enough about her!!!

Happy to help!
Wonderful experience. We would be delighted to work with Molly again. We left in a bit of disarray and our daughter managed the handoff, and everything went without a hitch. Strong recommend!

Professional Caregiver & Chaos Manager as a mom of two teens
Our experience with Emily and her wonderful daughter Lyssi as house and pet sitters was absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, they demonstrated exceptional care and professionalism, leaving us thoroughly impressed and at ease during our time away. Communication was top-notch throughout the entire process. Emily kept me updated regularly with messages and even sent me adorable pictures of Izzy. These updates meant the world to me and helped alleviate any concerns I may have had about leaving Izzy behind. It was clear from the moment they walked through our door that Emily and Lyssi genuinely cared for animals. They quickly formed a special bond with Izzy, and it was heartwarming to see them interact. I could tell that they treated Izzy as if she were their own, providing her with the attention, love, and care she needed. Upon our return, I was overjoyed to find our home in impeccable condition. It was evident that Emily and Lyssi had taken great care to ensure everything was clean, organized, and exactly as we had left it. This attention to detail truly exceeded our expectations and made our homecoming even more pleasant. We have no hesitation in saying that we would wholeheartedly welcome Emily and Lyssi into our home again. Their exceptional service, genuine passion for animals, and respectful treatment of our property make them an absolute dream team for any house and pet sitting needs. If you're looking for trustworthy, caring, and responsible sitters, look no further than Emily and Lyssi. We are immensely grateful for their exceptional service and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a reliable house and pet sitting duo.

Animal-owning and loving family here to make this a smooth experience for you
This was the 2nd time that Angela sat with my pups. You know that feeling when you're able to completely enjoy your time away because you absolutely know that your pets are in good hands and being well taken care of? Well, that is what you get with Angela and her family! I highly recommend!!! Thank you so much Angela for taking care of Max, Kaito, and Bunny. And for watering my outdoor plants in this extreme heat. I hope that our paths cross again.

From One Pet Lover to Another!
Jerry is a super star house sitter! He took care of our house and property with all of its responsibilities very well. We’ve had him house sit before and we’ll have him come back on our future trips. He is a delight to work with. We highly recommend him!
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
Cat and Paul sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details. Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters! Regards! Edward
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
