Tal stepped in after another Sitter had canceled with little notice, and was great to work with! Kala took to her immediately and everything went smoothly. We got updates with photos  daily, which we hadn’t requested, but did appreciate. The house was spotless when we returned. We would definitely invite Tal back anytime!

Lareena and her husband took care of our two Golden Retrievers twice while we were fishing and couldn't take the dogs. They are extremely reliable and organized. Communication with them is easy and the dogs absolutely adore them. The house was tidy, the dogs happy, and when I forgot to tell them that we made it home they even checked on us to make sure they didn't have to come back and feed the dogs again. Thank you for everything. I can highly recommend this couple for any dog sit, near and far.

Maggie and Matias were outstanding house and pet sitters. I would have them again in an instant. They were so very respectful of our home, treating it as their own and left it very clean, even washing the sheets and making our bed with fresh sheets before we got home! They were amazing with our pets. Maggie took the time to talk with us via video call in advance and arranged to arrive before we left so we could show her around. When she arrived, she already knew each dog by name as she studied in advance so she was prepared to care for the pups. She gave them attention right away and they were comfortable with her by the time we left 30 minutes later. Maggie stayed in touch while we were gone and sent us photos of our Chihuahuas snuggling next to her looking happy as can be. Her love of dogs is so apparent and they loved her right away. This was my first time using zeewoi and it was an absolutely positive experience. I was worried trying this the first time and Maggie showed me I had nothing to worry about whatsoever. I absolutely adored her and Matias. They were outstanding.

Hanna was the perfect sitter! Not only did she look after my dog and fish, my place was cleaner than I left. She was very respectful and made sure that she had all the information needed before I left. I got daily text and videos of my pets so I felt very reassured that she was doing exactly what I asked. She was very communicative and response. I would not think twice if I ever need a house sitter. She's awesome!

Laid back dog lover looking to travel and have a pet there to keep me company.
If I could leave 10 stars I would. Heikki is amazing!! We encountered a situation where our pup became ill and Heikki ended up having to take our pup to the pet emergency TWICE. She kept us very well informed, was not at all stressed or bothered by the inconvenience and her biggest concern was making sure our pup was safe and comfortable. She made batches of chicken and rice for puppers and did everything she could to help. We ended up coming home early as our pup still wasn't feeling great, and Heikki just went with the flow, not at all bothered, only wanting what was best for our dog. I would recommend Heikki to anyone. She is trustworthy, responsible, has excellent communication and goes above and beyond. Thank you for everything, Heikki!

Hello from Alaska!!
Exceptional Zeewoi! Floss was organized, energetic, and self-sufficient. Our anxious dog Sofie felt safe and at ease with her. She often sent lovely photos of Sofie out and about on adventures. Floss cleaned our home prior to our return, including the refrigerator. She had homemade soup and cookies made for us. It felt like coming home to my mom’s house. We hope we can entice her to come back often, for future sits or even just to visit us! If she applies for your sit, consider yourself blessed and confirm her without hesitation.
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
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.
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
