Kelly
Cross Keys, Delaware
The house is sold, things in storage, the car is packed, the adventure begins…
Kelly was very reliable and communicative. Cassie was so comfortable with her, always seemed to be smiling in pictures that were shared. Kelly even made dog treats for Cassie and she loves them!
Debra
Cross Keys, Delaware
Single retired animal lover.
Debra was kind, communicative, and attentive to Tommy & Ashes. Super grateful for her willingness to be their person and to tend to my home & plants in my absence. Definitely recommend!
Victoria
Cross Keys, Delaware
Frequent traveler, flexible schedule, sharing all the love with your animals!
This was our first time using Zeewoi and Victoria may have ruined it for us because now we only want her! She was above and beyond amazing. Most importantly, she took such great care of our dog. Our dog loved her so much that she would sleep with her! Our extensive collection of house plants all thrived, and the house was spotless. Victoria exceeded our expectations and we hope to have her back soon!
Valerie
Cross Keys, Delaware
This adventure just gets better and better!
We had Valerie back to watch Bolt and look after the house, and, per usual, she was fantastic! Great communication, super tidy, and really keeps Bolt calm. They seem to have a blast together. She's incredibly self sufficient, but communicative, thoughtful, and transparent. Would have her back anytime she's willing! Bolt would too ;)
Dorothy
Cross Keys, Delaware
Professional Couple, retired, long time homeowners and lifelong pet owners.
Dorothy & Paul house and pet sat for us once before, but that was when we were in a rental house short-term. So, our home was new to them, and there are a lot of features to learn. We had one day overlapping before our vacation and they quickly learned about the idiosyncrasies of our home. They knew our pets and the pets clearly remembered them. Todd was very excited to greet them with a welcoming howl or two, and the cats both wanted to sit on laps and get petted at the same time. It was clear that the cats had been brushed regularly while we were away. Dorothy and Paul took Todd everywhere around the Cape, even when the weather wasn't the greatest for walking. He clearly had a fantastic week under their care. Similarly, the cats, Buddy and Holly, were very happy and relaxed with Dorothy and Paul in their home. And I received photos to see how happy they all were. Dorothy and Paul had to leave before we got home, but we were in regular communication to make sure the transition went smoothly and did not disturb the pets. They did a fabulous job in cleaning the house and many things were cleaner than we had left it for them. We would definitely not hesitate to have Dorothy and Paul house and pet sit for us again. They are a wonderful couple and very caring with our pets and our home.
Elizabeth
Cross Keys, Delaware
Let us spoil your pet! Mature, pet-loving couple with a flexible schedule
Beth and Randy were fantastic! This was our first experience using zeewoi and it couldn’t have gone better. Prior to the sit they asked great questions about our dog/his routine/the house and were clearly attentive. While they were at our home they texted a few times for clarification which I appreciated. Each day we received text updates on our dog and a photo. They even kept a journal of his activities each day which they left for us. It was obvious that they showered him with lots of love. They even stayed a little longer than planned as we got stuck in traffic on the way home and left us some cute succulents. Beth and Randy left the house as clean as they found it - washing the sheets and dog blanket and no doubt vacuuming the floor given how much our dog sheds! I would gladly welcome them back to our home anytime!!
Donna
Cross Keys, Delaware
Responsible, active, retired teacher. Loves fur babies and visiting new places.
Donna was an extremely thoughtful, kind, caring and communicative sitter. My pups adored her as do I. She was super reliable, responsible and self-sufficient. Donna made sure I was kept up to date on my boys and sent photos regularly. It was if my dogs barely knew I was traveling. She is super clean (I had to tell her to stop cleaning :-) and does everything you ask (even watered my lawn in the hot FL sun). I consider Donna a friend now as she loves dogs like I do and cared for Finn and Farley as if they were her own. I got the opportunity to share some time with her and she is an absolute joy with a beautiful heart. I cannot recommend Donna enough for your zeewoi sit.
Aniah
Cross Keys, Delaware
Fellow animal lover looking to help some families out when needed!
Aniah & Jaedyn took great care of Diego, our cat, and the gardens all looked great upon our return. Their attention to detail is greatly appreciated.
Joyce
Cross Keys, Delaware
Responsible cat caretaker wants to spoil your kitties
Joyce was great company for Mandy while I wad away! She was communicative, checking in daily, and left my apartment clean and tidy. All around a great sitter - I have no complaints!
Terry
Cross Keys, Delaware
A trusted and friendly presence.
Terry was very conscientious and dependable sitter. He spent a great deal of time playing with and taking care of our dog. He genuinely cared about making him happy and our dog responded by following him around. He was very accommodating when our plans changed during the sit and left the house in good order. He had told us he had no experience with dogs and, unfortunately, our dominant German Shepherd sensed that and took advantage. No harm was done but Terry wasn't able to stick to our usual routine. Nonetheless I would not hesitate to recommend him to sit for cats or smaller, less assertive dogs.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Hannah
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Phil
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!
Oliver
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Erin
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Carrie
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Inma
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!
Bridget
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
Will
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.
Julie
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.

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 .
