Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
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.
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.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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!
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!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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 overnight at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
A great place! My dog is always sad to leave
Our little Ruby has always been very well taken care of. Darrin & Beatrice just LOVE dogs - gives us peace of mind while travelling knowing our ❤️🐶 is in good hands.
A place where your dog feels at home and gets pampered on the way out!
Dogs are having the time of their lives! Very well taken care of!
Super clean, very professional, super friendly owners and the dog was very happy and relax
What can I say, it a better than some hotels I have been to :).
Best place
I brought sulley my big friend for the first time and he had a great time with beatrice and darren actually it deserves 10 stars i have often seen 5 star dog daycare that are not even worth 1/2 stars but this is the ultimate dog daycare by far thank you for the good care also on behalf of sulley 🐶 🐾 …
For our Labrador Jessy, every stay is a party! It really is a holiday for her ☺️ Playing in complete freedom with many types of dogs, how fun! The care and love that Darren & Beatrice give is 👍 …
Caring and loving! Due to private circumstances, we urgently needed good care for our sweet cuddly toy Macha. Tamara was immediately ready for us. Macha always has a great time at Topcare4dogs and it is important for us to know that she is always taken care of with love. We now live 2 hours away, but are not thinking of looking for an alternative close to home. ❤️🐾❤️
In our opinion, top care 4 dogs is a very nice shelter that has managed to turn our scared dog into a happy companion dog! the contact with the other dogs is going very well. We first had a very unpleasant experience at another kennel, which made our dog very scared. After having had a very nice telephone contact with Tamara from Top Care 4 Dogs, we dared to try this shelter, and with success! Our dog goes there wagging his tail and comes back happily. Tamara is very reliable and knows what she is doing. We have nice contact via the app if there is anything wrong, to get nice photos of our dog! In short; highly recommended!!
Brought my pug Bep to Tamara yesterday! What a beautiful, warm, sweet woman! She took great care of my dog! I will bring her back to her with LOVE! :)
an ideal place for a dog, irreplaceable pet care. The owner of the place is full of confidence, no one will take better care of your dogs❤️
Think carefully before letting your dog stay with Top Care 4 Dogs, we thought to have found a trusted address, but our dog ran away from here. We are only informed a few hours later, residents in the area indicate that the dog was seen later in the afternoon. After an all-night search party with friends, we finally found our dog the next day. There was no cooperation at all from Top Care 4 Dogs, they assumed that the dog would come back on its own. Beautiful stories on the website that come to nothing, the response from the boarding house was and is quite disappointing, they profile themselves as a canine behavioral therapist and provide dog training, but they cannot look after a dog. So top care is not top at all but quite disappointing.
I immediately took our dog to Tamara last week, because my father would end up in the hospital and no one would be home during the day. Our dog was able to come straight away and it was no problem at all if it took longer than expected. He is very well cared for and I really like the fact that he is in the house and not in a kennel. It is a really warm home situation and together with her own pack, our dog (who was not very social with other dogs) is learning to really be a dog and play again. Because I was quite worried, Tamara also keeps me informed and sends me photos showing that he is very comfortable and having a great time. Very pleasant and reassuring. In short: Tamara. You are the best!! And I can't be grateful enough for your good care of "my baby".
Tamara walked our dog two years ago, my dog has now passed away, she still has our key, we have said several times that we would like our key back, we have not received any response. We are not called back, it is certainly very unprofessional that we have to ask for our key. An honest "company" would have done that on its own. I really advise everyone to be careful because your privacy and security are NOT guaranteed.
I thought it would be a nice place to take my dog for the holidays, but it never came to that.... It seemed like a really nice place for our dog, also close to our house, ideal. After the first contact, I made an appointment to meet her, which was canceled by email because she was so busy. Made a new appointment, which was canceled again due to large crowds, with the request to make a new appointment. Then I think, isn't there always a spot available on the day that we can drop by? But yeah, not so. I called; no contact. Message left: I just didn't get a call back. I sent another message wondering if she had time to look after our dog, because it is still a young dog that really needs supervision! Tamara has not responded to this either. I find this very unprofessional and I suspect that she is simply too busy with her grooming salon and walking service, she is just never home. Not a reliable place to take your dog!
Friends of mine had paid for 2 stays worth €100+ euros before COVID. When COVID started and their trips couldn't go ahead, the money was not refunded as they had to come back after COVID. Now that the lockdown is over, this lady refuses to take their dog back and they don't want to pay anything back. This lady is always very (seemingly) friendly via Facebook, but when it comes down to it she cannot be trusted.
Last year and last year we housed our 2 dogs at Top Care 4 Dogs. Because we were unable to meet our drop-off and pick-up times with a seriously ill family member, other times were readily and directly negotiable. Dogs had a great time. We are very satisfied. Rita and Kelly Hermans.
