Retired firefighter ready to assist you! Tidy, organized, reliable.
Erik is an *expert* housesitter. He was the utimate peace of mind for us as we took a long vacation and left our 1 year old rambunctious pup behind in the safety of his care. Not only were the preparation and interactions leading up to the sit highly professional and comprehensive, the sit itself was the most at ease we have been since getting our pup. During our holiday, we had a medical emergency while away and it was immensely helpful to know that Aurie and our home were in good hands. We also received the most beautiful photo updates which brought light to us while away. Can't recommend Erik enough - we feel luck to have met him!

Kind, calm and consistent. I will make your pets my priority.
I didn't have very many applicants on my stay outside of Amber, but she made herself stand out right away. She quickly set up a video call to ensure that we'd be a good fit. She had prepared a list of questions to ask about my cats and about the apartment. Amber is easy to talk to and was responsive when I reached out with questions. Amber was respectful of my space and house rules.

Sharron and Andrea were fantastic, I know Holly loved being with them for she wasn’t overly concerned when I got home! Hello, I’m going outside now!

Pat and I recently retired from over 30 years of international development work.
Pat and Joe housesat for our dogs for about 2 weeks each in March and April of 2022. They are a very energetic, on the go couple. They are very experienced with all facets of housesitting, having owned their own bed and breakfast and traveled the world. Our house (and our pool and plants) were perfect upon our returns and the dogs (12 year old and a puppy) were well cared for and happy.

Adventurous couple and a fun pup. Our adventure allows your adventure!
Great to come home to a happy dog and a clean house. We were grateful that they could be flexible with our return date and time, as we were overseas and you never know if flight & drive times will be as expected. We would be happy to recommend them or have them stay with Tasmin again sometime.

Leah and her friend were super. We had a FaceTime call early in the process so she could meet our pets. When her flight was delayed, she texted and called to make sure we knew. During their stay she sent us a picture of our dog on an adventure with them. After we got home our neighbor told us they were super polite and walked our dog regularly. This was the first time we used Zeewoi and the first time our pets were taken care of by someone other than us. Leah did a great job especially since they did not get the benefit of an in person introduction. Because their flight was delayed I sent Leah a video going over the commands and gestures we use for our dog. Leah said she was comfortable with our commands and suggested we leave some of our dogs favorite treats out for them. Leah reported our dog was responding right away. When we got home all the pets were happy and showed no signs of being stressed. Perfect and comfortable! I really appreciate Leah helping out family.

Emotionally intelligent human seeks new pet vacation buddies!
Kali took good care of Toma and Finn for a week while I visited family. I appreciated the communication and updates from her about my cats, which gave me peace of mind about the whole sit. Finn is a Siberian and a big people person, which Kali was attentive to and gave him the love and affection he wanted. Both cats seemed calm and happy when I returned, and the house was very clean! I’d love to have her back as a sitter for my next travels.

Kaine was very friendly, arrived when he said he would and I returned home to a clean house of happy rats!
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Summer was a very top-quality pet sitter and house sitter. She not only took excellent care of all four pets (three cats and a dog) but even achieved a very close bond with one of the cats. She went over and above the call of duty with our dog, who developed a serious skin condition while we were gone. We're so grateful that Summer was able to identify there was a problem, took the dog to the vet several times, and ended up having to apply topical medication and give pills and even keep the dog dressed in a t-shirt, which she did flawlessly. She communicated with us frequently, sending photos and updates, and the house was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we had left. She did an amazing job, knew how to handle any situation, always had a very upbeat and positive attitude, and we really enjoyed getting to know her right before we left and right after we returned. We would very very highly recommend Summer in all respects!
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
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!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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!
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
