Young couple excited to meet your pets while traveling and working remotely!
This was our second house sit with Hannah and David. As was the case last time, we came home to such a happy, exercised, fit and well-loved Riley. Riley couldn’t decide who to go to next for pets and loves between the four of us. The house was spotless and even with an early morning flight the morning after our return, the beds were stripped and the trash was taken out. Riley got to go places with David and Hannah. They took her to Bark at the Park, they took her to early dinners at outdoor restaurants and they took her on new hikes. There was plenty of cuddle time and we received photos that kept us up to date on their adventures and quiet time. Honestly, we didn’t need to check in but felt totally comfortable with Riley’s care (free to be on vacation) during our three week trip abroad. As many of you will know, who have fur babies that they adore, this is saying something!! Thanks David and Hannah!! We welcome you back any time!!

Active retired animal lovers
Rose and Bruce were amazing sitters, and we welcome them back any time! Rose was communicative leading up to the designated dates and we really appreciated that they were willing to come a day early to meet us and the dogs, walk with us, allow us to show them our routine and ask questions we hadn't thought of. We were able to leave for our trip knowing that our girls were in great hands. We came home to happy dogs and a very clean and tidy home.

Lee and Stuart were excellent pet sitters! They loved our dog Brooklyn and she loved them. They kept us updated on her and made sure she was well taken care of. They were very neat and our house was in perfect condition when we came home. I would be happy to have them sit again.

Let this mature, responsible woman help to care for your priceless pets and home
Lori was absolutely amazing. She was so responsive and gave us updates on our furry princess every couple of days. When we returned home, the house was spotless (truthfully better than we left it!). Lori took care of our plants (during a mini heat-wave) and everything looked amazing when we got home. Our princess Artemis was happy, relaxed and content when we got home. We know that she was very well cared for and cuddled by Lori. We would not hesitate for a moment to have Lori sit with us again. Thank you Lori!

Reliable, Responsible, Caring, Communicative, Respectful, Active Animal Lover
Margi won my trust and confidence in her from my first online meeting with her and was true to her word throughout our interaction. She understood how to treat my rather feisty Siamese from the beginning and I never had a moments worry about the cat while she was looking after her. She was undaunted by facing the challenge of the wettest winter on record in Cape Town and struck a good balance between using her own initiative and communicating with me about issues. I can recommend Margi as a pet and house sitter without hesitation.

Loving Care When You're Not There.
Lynda was very communicative, and shared photos and videos of Henry every day. Knowing Henry as I do, it was clear that he was very happy and well cared for. That's all that really matters to me, so the fact that the place was very neat and tidy when I returned (with a lovely note and bouquet of flowers) was just icing on the cake!

Reliable housesitters hoping to love your pet for the summer :)
Enogie and her friend Allison were a delight to have watch Sawyer and Finn. Great communication and I had no worries even when I was out of cell service the whole weekend. They left the house basically cleaner than before, washed sheets and towels and remade bed. Was a very nice gesture to come home to.

At your service :)
As always, Sosha is an amazing sitter!
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!
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!
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.
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
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.
Florence was a great sitter for my cat Lily. I booked her a bit last minute, as a previous sitter had to cancel, but was very happy to have her. She was reliable, prompt to respond, and sent picture updates daily at my request. Judging by the pics, Lily warmed up to her nicely and they spent some lounging time together - which is high praise from a cat! Would recommend Florence for your next sit.
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!
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!
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 :)
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, $60 per overnight watching in your home or $40 for a cat boarding, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
