Warmhearted homeowners would love to take care of your home and pet family
Sarah was such a gem! My pup Rhu was so well taken care of while I was away - lots of cuddles and exploring the city. My home was left cleaner than when I left. Can’t wait to have her back again!

Sarah and Scott: healthy, active and retired couple who love animals and travel
I really appreciate Sarah and Scott as my zeewoi! They are great people and do a great job taking care of not only the pets, but the house as well! This is my second time to use them and would be very comfortable using them everytime I go somewhere.

Trisha was fantastic and took great care of our Boogie. When we came home our house was spotless and Boogie was very content. We would love it if she ever came back again!

She did a great job of caring for Tuk. When we got home he acted as if we really hadn’t been gone which really demonstrates how well he was cared for while we were gone. She left our home tidy and Tuk happy. She was able to come the night before and was able to get to see our dogs routine prior to our leaving which was a great help. She was even willing to accommodate an unexpected showing of our home while we were gone. All in all a great sit!

Experienced sitters want to become your pet's best friend and your peace of mind
Where to start! Eric & Theresa were wonderful from the moment we had our first video call right up until after we got home. Getting an international sitter can always be a bit nerve wracking (they are from the US and we are in the UK) but they made the whole process a breeze. They ensured that they got to the UK the day before so that there was ample time in case of any delays and the whole thing went so smoothly. They had a lot of great questions which showed us that they genuinely cared about the sit and it filled us with confidence. They were communicative throughout the sit, sharing photos and updates on their daily adventures which was so lovely. It was clear that the boys loved them and took to them immediately- they didn’t even seem that sad when we left as they were already settling with their new best friends! Our neighbour has also since commented on how lovely they seemed and how clear it was they adored the dogs which was so heart warming. When we got home, they had left us a very kind note which we really appreciated and the house was beautifully clean with the sheets and towels all cleaned etc. We would 10/10 recommend Eric and Theresa for anyone looking for the perfect sit, both locally and internationally!

Mary Pat was great for this weekend stay. Dexter and Luna warmed up to her and she was very communicative for the twice-daily updates that I requested. Would love to have her back.

We love pets and we sure love this app!
What can I say? I feel so fortunate to have matched up with Kris and she set the bar high! Kris came for three days, two nights. She asked if she could come with a girlfriend for a relaxing reunion with a girlfriend since she was in the area with her husband visiting their son in SF. It sounded like a fair trade. Kris shared she had a large Great Dane so large strong dogs weren't a concern for her. She sent photos of Cal and Prim on the beach, on walks and in the shower. She was able to extend her stay for me since our flight was delayed and let me know she stayed long and took the pups on an evening walk and fed them their Sunday dinner. The towels and sheets she used were washed, dried AND folded and there was a lovely note on the counter welcoming me home. If I could, I would plan another trip around Kris's next visit! I can't recommend her enough! Thank you Kris!

Dog & cat lover here! Can’t wait to get to know all of the pets!
Alice and Joe were fantastic dogsitters that we highly recommend and plan to use again! They were great with communication and prompt in their arrival. They took excellent care of our Husky who is getting older and requires some extra love. I could tell that our dog was loving every minute by the big smile on her face in the pictures sent by Alice. We arrived home to find the house sparkling clean plus Alice had left us with homemade chicken noodle soup, chocolate chip cookies and hand knitted slippers! They truly went above and beyond. We appreciate their care and willingness to go the extra mile!
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
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!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
