David has excellent reviews for a reason! He is a true cat lover and immediately won over our suspicious clan. Looking after 12 cats requires time, patience and organization, and David excelled at all these things. The communication before the sit was excellent. He asked lots of questions and made sure he understood the routines and expectations. During the sit he sent lots of photos and videos, which was much appreciated. He also managed some unexpected issues, like getting a prescription for one of the cats and giving her pills every day. He watered the plants regularly and took care of the house. Due to unexpected changes in work circumstances, my husband and I returned home earlier than planned. David was flexible and understanding as we worked this out, and made a challenging couple of weeks much smoother than they might have been. Overall, having David as a sitter was a great experience. Highly recommended!

Dirk and Rosemary looked after my 2 cats Kiwi and Callie for a few days. They are a very nice, friendly couple who agreed to arrive the day before my departure so we could get to know each other a bit and which made the handover much more relaxed. Kiwi is very shy and not an easy cat to get to know but they sent me a video after about 3 days in which they were stroking and petting him much to his delight. Callie too was very happy and relaxed with both Dirk and Rosemary. On my return the flat was very clean and tidy. I strongly recommend Dirk and Rosemary to other pet owners who want to know that their pets are being well cared for while away from home.

Our experience with Ray was excellent. It was our first time using Trusted House-sitter, and we were delighted. Communication flowed very well. Rocky is currently undergoing treatment for his eyes, and Ray helped us continue it. When we arrived, the house was clean and tidy. He was even kind enough to change the sheets for us since our flight was arriving very late. We truly recommend Ray 100%. He is very responsible and respectful.

My dogs loved Mona and Oliver and I could not have been happier with their pet care and their home care. 😊 True animal enthusiasts, they were great with communication, sending pictures and messages, making sure I knew that Colonel and Winnie were doing fine and getting great care. In addition to making sure my buddies were taken care of, they were very respectful of my apartment and left it in perfect condition. Both Mona and Oliver are open and warm, with a kind, easy going disposition. I would absolutely welcome them back at any time!

Rocio and Rafa came back for a third time to look after our beloved cockapoo! We absolutely love welcoming them to stay and our dog as always was so excited to see them. Having Rocio and Rafa house sit means we can go on holiday with zero worries and feel happy knowing our dog is having the best time with them and that our house is also well looked after. We would recommend them to everyone and hope to see them again!

We feel so fortunate to have had Maggie & Ciro looking after our place, our plants and most of all, our dog Otter. Otter was happy & content and plants looked great upon our return. I'll confess, this being our first time using zeewoi.com, it felt pretty weird to be entrusting our home and furry child to people we didn't know. But Maggie's excellent communication made all the difference...from meeting prior to departure, to photos and notes while we were away, her warmth and care shone through. She was also a communication rock star when we had to unexpectedly return home a day early due to a medical emergency. We highly recommend Maggie & Ciro as housesitters.

We can't recommend Bitsy and Dave highly enough. They were respectful, reliable, and totally trustworthy - we left our house in their hands without any qualms at all. We have a vegetable garden, greenhouse and chickens and they took care of these with enthusiastic care, sending us regular updates and evidently enjoying our home. When we returned we found everything in perfect order. It was a pleasure having them look after our home while we were away.

Mauricio cared for my house, cats and plants for 2 months during the summer. The cats love him, the garden was in a very good shape and the house was clean when I came back. He stayed at my place for the third time and I would allways love to have him back here again. He gives me the feeling that my place is in good hands and I dont have to worry about it.

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!

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters.  We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm.  In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard.  Not a typical or easy sit.  We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of.

Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for.  The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard.  Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight.

It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!

Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!

Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!

Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐

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!

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!

My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment.  They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay.  It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets.  They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions.  Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue.  As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary.  When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort.  We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters.  We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool.  (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!)  On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home.  Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
