Pet lover seeking house- sit
It was a pleasure to have Anne housesit our dog Finn. She clearly loves dogs and he seemed very happy. Communicating with Anne was prompt and easy and, having done housesits before, she was v organised too. What’s more, it was a delight to come home to a v tidy house!

Semi retired couple travelling in their Motorhome with their 2 dogs.
Colin and Shirley were excellent house sitters and their dogs are beautiful and very friendly. Bailey enjoyed playing with them during their stay. They left the house extremely clean and provided lots of updates and photos whilst we were away. We would definitely recommend Colin and Shirley to anyone looking for a house sit.

Friend of animals & plants ❤
I knew I wanted Florence and her family to sit for us the moment we spoke! The dogs had a great time and did some long walks around Skipton and had plenty of cuddles on the sofa. We were sent photos which is always lovely to see. Liaising with Florence was easy and straightforward from start to finish. Sadly we didn’t get to meet due to timings but I trusted her enough to leave a key and instructions and we were on hand via WhatsApp. I would happily have Florence and her family sit for us again.

Quiet, reliable animal loving person who enjoys house/pet-sitting.
Issy did a great job looking after our house and the Guinea Pigs. The house was immaculate when we returned. Unfortunately our beloved dog Karla passed away just days before Issy came but Issy still committed to the sit and all was good. Thanks Issy!

Caring, friendly, adventure-loving family ready to look after your home & pets l
Communication with Monika was great from the outset. Monika & Corwin are experienced pet sitters and took care of the dogs well giving them lots of attention. Communication was helpful when Lola needed extra attention. They left the house clean & tidy. I’d welcome them back again. Thanks so much for good care of our dogs.

Life long animal lover/Nurse from Australia
Mega was brilliant, one of the best sitters that we have ever had. She came two days before the sit started to familiarise herself with the dogs routines. She was easy company during those two days and we left feeling very reassured by her competence. She regularly check in with us on WhatsApp whilst we were away, and was very calm when asking about how to deal with a loo that kept flushing. The situation was promptly rectified. Our eldest dog, Lily, is going blind and deaf and the care and attention that she paid to her was exemplary. Her nursing skills certainly came in handy. When we arrived home, Megan had cooked us a delicious diner, having mastered the Aga. We would certainly have her back anytime. She is one of those Australians who just roll up their sleeves and gets on with it with a 'can do' attitude.

We are Jim and Gill Robertson living in the Highlands of Scotland.
Jim'n'Gill were the best sitters! We communicated well, ahead of the sit, over several months. When they arrived, Jim'n'Gill were so warm and likeable, that we instantly felt we could hug them. When we went off on our family holiday, we genuinely felt confident about them, and at peace. They were kind to our kitties, and gave them lots of love. We could tell they sincerely love animals. Jim'n'Gill even brushed our kitties fur, a la massage, and arranged toys for them to play with. They also sent us pics of our kitties, looking ultra relaxed, while we were away, which we really appreciated. When we returned, our kitchen and laundry were cleaner than they were when we left, and everything was neat and tidy. We actually wish they lived in our town, coz we feel we could enjoy a thousand great conversations with them. We highly recommend Jim'n'Gill. They are the most wonderful couple. And, you can definitely trust them to care for your fur-babies.

Reliable and experienced traveller and home/pet sitter.
Martine was an excellent sitter. Huey was well cared for and was relaxed and happy when we got home. Martine was very communicative and kept me up to date with how Huey was, sending photos and videos of what he was up to. He is an old boy that requires a lot of care, and she looked after his needs re. short walks and daily tablets. The house was immaculate when we returned home, which is a relief when you get home late in the evening. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask Martine to look after Huey again.

Fulltime petsitter since 2019
Paulien did an amazing job with our two cats while we were away for the weekend. She kept the flat clean and tidy, and the boys were very sad to see her go! We couldn’t recommend her more.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
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!
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.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
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!
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
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!
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 :)
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
