Ian and Karen Reynolds
This isn’t our first time to have the amazing and wonderful Ian and Karen sit for our dog (Lancaster Heeler) but it is our first in our new home in Spain. We gave them the option of sitting for us and they took it. FIrst of all, they sat for us when we lived (previously) in Austin, Texas. They are exemplary housesitters and awesome humans. If they apply for a housesit/pet sit, look no further. THey will enter your home as pro sitters and leave with that same “title” but you will add “friends” to the equation. They show up to help you not just care for your dog. Top it off, they both have interesting backgrounds which make whatever they do in life to be exemplary people.Oh, and they are quite interesting and If they apply, no need to look any further. They will love and care for your dog. Your home will be well cared for. If any problems pop up, and they will handle them responsibly and like real pros.

Responsible, mature, professional sitter with over 40 sits through the app.
Sarah was awesome. I have 3 cats and they all made quick friends. Sarah was very communicative before and during the week long stay - could not ask for better. House was cleaner when I got back! I have already requested another week later this year!

Experienced and Compassionate Pet Lover: Your Home and Furry Friends in Trusted
Zoltan provided excellent care of our two Standard Poodles whle we were gone. Communication before the sit was excellent. He arrived the day before we left town to meet our dogs. Immediately we were comfortable with the idea of him taking care of our dogs and our home. We took him out to dinner that evening and enjoyed our visit. He communicated via text throughout the stay and frequently sent us pictures of our dogs. The dogs were in great shape when we returned. It was obvious that they had been walked regularly and that Zoltan had spent time brushing out their ears. A limb from a neighbor's tree fell into our backyard while we were gone and Zoltan sent photos and helped us coordinate clean-up. Mail was neatly organized when we returned. We found the house in perfect condition. We will try to coordinate with Zoltan in the future because our dogs LOVE him. I cannot imagine anyone doing a better job.

Lynn & Doug Walsdorf
Lynn and Doug truly are 5-star Zeewoi! They took fantastic care of our house and our dog, Rizzo. They took Rizzo on walks and hikes and really embraced him. When we returned, we walked into our home, which was beautifully clean and tidy. Throughout the entire process, they were a delight to communicate with. Having Lynn and Doug at our home taking care of our dog really allowed us to enjoy our time away even more.

Responsible Housesitter/Animal Lover
Nancy had a great connection with Franny and Ziggy and is clearly a true animal lover. She was diligent in sending me morning and evening pics, as requested, and kept me informed about my kitties' well-being. The house was clean and just as I left it on my return, with washed linens and towels. Most significantly, my fur-babies were happy, secure and well-fed. I'd have no problem recommending Nancy as your next zeewoi.

Loving your pets, caring for your property, and enjoying travel experiences!
Pam and Lief were amazing. Came in a day early so they could get to know the kitties, house and myself. Pam was very communicative while I was overseas. I never worried once. She even made sure my plants stayed alive during the Texas heat! I came home to a spotless house (she even cleaned the fridge) and happy kitties. More than I could ask for. I highly recommend Pam. Thank you thank you!!

Retired couple. We have 9 children, 20 grands! Love cats & dogs. Ready to help U
This was our second time having Tony come to housesit and dog sit for us. Judy was not able to make it, but Tony did a great job. When we came home, the house was tidy, and the dogs were all tired out and content. One of our dogs, Piper even looked out the window, hoping he was returning. We felt completely at ease while we were on our trip knowing that things were well taken care of. Tony and Judy are welcome back anytime! 
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!
Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
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!
Kerry and Megan were wonderful sitters and took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. They were responsive, gave us regular updates, and seemed to really care about Tumba and Cappa. When Tumba was more timid toward the beginning of our trip and not eating her meals fully, Kerry was sure to ask for additional suggestions from us on how to coax her to eat more. Kerry and Megan also left the house just as we'd left it for them. We really appreciated them going the extra mile to ask about additional cleaning products so they could clean our bathrooms. It felt great to come home and just relax without needing to remake the bed. Thanks for everything, Kerry and Megan! We would certainly entrust our home and kitties to you again in the future.
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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.
