Janis was great! My home looked exactly the same as I left it, and the cats got along with her great. I really appreciated the photo updates with how the cats were doing throughout the day. I felt very safe leaving my cats in Janis' care.

Helping fellow travelers and pet lovers get out and make amazing memories :)
Kim was a great help. She communicated perfectly, noted the important details and took very good care of Koneko and our home. Our home was clean and tidy when we came back. We enjoyed her candid videos of Koneko's endeavors ❤️ we would be glad to have Kim keeping Koneko company again!

Look forward to spoiling your fur babies so you can travel with peace of mind.
Terri is extremely independent, cares for house and pets with equal love and attention to detail. Terri willingly (and politely) gave me suggestions as to how to improve my Guide Book and kitchen organization for future house sitters. I am pretty sure I can say Terri is more than a Zeewoi, she is a friend.

Caring heart and loving hands for your two-and four-legged family members.
Our Airedale, Poppy, has just enjoyed another wonderful 4 week "holiday at home with Saint Sheila"! Yes we have elevated Sheila from 5 star status to sainthood because she had to deal with a number of unexpected difficulties when sitting for us, all of which she managed with endless grace and good humour. In addition she had to manage a number of tradesmen coming to the house. Sheila kept us up to date with perfectly pitched text messages and charming photos of Poppy "guarding" the house, code for seeking out the most comfortable sleeping spot. Poppy really loves Sheila and moped around for a couple of days after she left. And of course we arrived home to a beautifully organised home with a vase of gum leaves and milk, bread and dinner in the fridge....not a thing out of place. Sheila will always be our first choice sitter, if only she would move to Australia! Thank you so much for your loving care of Poppy and our home, and we are all looking forward to 'next time' whenever that will be.

Big shout out and thank you to Evelyn and Phil for taking care of our place and critters, and keeping the thirsty trees and plants watered. They communicated with and took over the reins from the previous couple who sat for us. Kindly collected packages for us from the PO and Evelyn spent extra time loving and rubbing on our bored, attention seeking mules’ ears…. Part of the time the weather was less than favorable unfortunately (smoke from forest fires) and they stuck it out even though we told them they could leave if they wanted to, as some days were very unhealthy. We’re glad they were at least able to take time and do some sightseeing on the clear days. Thanks again guys!

Animal lovers and travelers. That’s us!
Would give Michelle a bunch of extra stars if we would. Lots of nice pics sent during our time away and returned to a clean house and a tired pup! Excellent all around!

Experienced pet and house sitter
Mikayla was a delight. She came over to our house before her sit to meet us and Terra. She is young and energetic and dog loved her. At the end of her sit she left a sweet note about her stay. Our house was clean and sheets and towels washed. Would definitely consider Makayla again for a dog sit.
Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
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!
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Kathy and Ron are the most accommodating sitters you will ever find. At my request they arrived a few days early and also made it clear they would be willing to extend their stay as needed. While at first they were a little uneasy about giving pills to our cat Sparky, they soon got the hang of it and did an excellent job caring for both cats even though the cats have very different schedules and needs. Kathy was great about keeping in touch with us and we knew they would be just fine for the several days when we were out of communication range. I would gladly invite Ron and Kathy back anytime and highly recommend them to you for your next getaway!
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 :)
