Cressey, California
Trustworthy and loving family looking to care for what's most precious to you
The only down side about having George and Larissa and their wonderful children stay in your home and look after your beloved pets is that you are on holiday and don't get to spend time with them! They are AMAZING! From the minute they arrived (we had a half hour cross over) we felt completely confident and relaxed about leaving. We received daily photos and updates on our lively labrador, careful and considerate questions about taking care of our home (all houses have their quirks and its difficult to leave precise instructions about everything), stories and anecdotes about our dog and what she was doing and how she was interacting with the children (I believe there were tears when they left); and in addition to regular Trusted Houseitting duties the family also looked after our Airbnb and interacted with our guests and looked after them perfectly - all of our guests left 5* reviews and all mentioned Larissa and George as their 'wonderful hosts'. When we got home everything was exactly as we left it plus some extra goodies had been left for us to help us settled in after a long flight. This is a family who are stepping out into the world and doing 'life' in what many would consider a non-conventional way - but that means they are very experienced travellers, quick to hit the ground running when they arrive and 100% adorable. Don't hesitate - say yes!

Trustworthy, communicative sitter for folx in the Santa Cruz and SF bay areas.
ayreAnna and Jakob were wonderful pet sitters for my kitty Oyster. ayreAnna was super communicative and warm before, during, and after the stay. I was away camping without cell service but they handled everything smoothly on their own and left the apartment spotless. I’d happily have them back!

Animal Lover who loves to travel. I have always had dogs, cats and horses.
If Kathy applies to sit for you, just say YES!! We are lucky to live close enough to Kathy that she arranged to drop by for a meet and greet a few months before the actual sit. We had so much in common and could have chatted for hours! Kathy's communication before, during and after the sit is amazing! You will never wonder how things are going because she will be sending you photos of your happy pets and well cared for home, garden etc. We came home to an immaculate house and happy critters! You can tell how much Kathy enjoys being a zeewoi and she takes great pride in providing the best service. We can only hope that Kathy will come back and sit for us again. Luna, Tom and the hummingbirds all miss her! Thank you, Kathy!!

Retired teacher, caring and responsible.
Bridget was a wonderful housesitter and took great care of our dog and cats for almost three weeks. She communicated well both before and during our trip. The house was immaculate on our arrival back home. We highly recommend Bridget!

Experienced Traveling Pet Sitters
Amanda and Anthony were wonderful sitters. They took such good care of my 3 dogs and sent me pictures and updates and I could see the dogs enjoyed their company. I live on a property with other people and they raved about them and enjoyed getting to know them! I would absolutely have them again if their adventures bring them back this way! Stephanie

Reliable and responsible woman to care for your pets and home.
Brooke was so lovely to communicate with. She had a warm, grounded energy and was very responsive to us and our animals. Brooke sent us little updates about how the animals were doing while we were away, which put me at ease. Would definitely have her sit again!

Retired, respectful, responsible!
Sarah and Stan were wonderful. They were kind and loving to our dog, and even did some training with him! They also took great care of the house, and went above and beyond to launder their own towels and sheets and remake our bed. It was really nice to come home to, as our plane got in pretty late. Sarah sent pics and videos, and was super easy to communicate and coordinate with. We highly recommend them!

Reliable, respectful and an excellent companion to pets!
Wow! Sheri was amazing! Our puppy broke her tail prior to Sheri’s arrival and needed to wear a splint. Sheri not only managed this cumbersome problem perfectly, but she took our Tessa on long walks and gave her so much love. Our home was left immaculate. Tessa and we can’t wait to see Sheri again!

Hello there! Me and Regina love pets and traveling. This app is the best!
They worked hard to make sure our pets were safe. The house was left very clean and taken care of!

Responsible, Considerate, Experienced sitters- Active Retired Couple
Kim was fantastic! This turned out to be a house sit instead of a pet sit, but Kim was so flexible and responsible! We so appreciated how clean and spotless she left the house! We can’t wait to have her sit again.
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
