We were able to spend a little time with Heather and Matt before we left, and knew they would treat our house and animals with care and respect. Their experience showed in the questions they asked. Communication and expectations were understood before we left, and we came home to happy pets and a clean house. In addition, they’re just wonderful, interesting people. We would have them again anytime!

We have used Wendy and Dave several times and they are the best! Our cats get more attentive care from them than they do from us, and our apartment is always left spotless. We have been very blessed to have them.

We can’t say enough good things about Lucy and Pawel! They’ve been one of the best house sitters/pet sitters we’ve had the fortune to find through the app. From the moment we connected months before the sit they were super responsive and seemed genuinely interested in our dogs. Around the time the sit was supposed to start they were life savers!! We had a very long trip in planned (3 weeks) so we had another zeewoi scheduled to come before Lucy and Pawel. We had the most terrible experience with that other previous sitter, it was a nightmare and she ended up leaving unexpectedly 2 days before the sit was supposed to end among many other terrible things. I was in constant communication with Lucy and Pawel and shared everything with them and they were so awesome and were able to get to our house one day before their sit was supposed to start! From the minute they got to our house they sent great updates, helped with a lot of things that the previous sitter was supposed to do like watering the plants and making sure to give lots of love to our babies and getting them out on time. They let us know if something didn’t seem right (there was a time that Max was acting up very weird, and that Cleo vomited) and we’re just great overall. When we came back we found a house that was spotless as if we had never left and extremely happy dogs!! Thank you so much Lucy and Pawel for all your help these past days. We wish you the best and hope you can sit for us again in the future!!

Lori was super efficient and a very capable cat sitter. Our communication before the sit was clear and reliable Lori arrived by train the day before our holiday which was great as she got to meet our two very nervous and shy cats when we were around, which makes a difference I think They were very happy in her company and even accepted a few treats! Lori is obviously in tune with cats and it shows She took all the house info in her stride It was nice to chat to her over dinner and interesting to hear about where she’d been pet sitting since she’d come over from the States earlier this year We had no worries about leaving the cats in her very capable hands for 9 days We had a few pictures and stories in the time we were away which was welcome On our return Lori had already left ( as arranged previously) we came home to an immaculate house and two cats welcoming us as we unpacked the car Lori had left us a lovely card and an absolutely amazing Apple cake, it really was a work of art and a shame to cut into it to eat! We would love Lori to come back one day to sit for us again

Sandra was an excellent sitter - we came back to a happy contented cat, a spotless house and a lovely welcome home card and message. Sandra sent us daily photos and updates on Ziggy which we greatly appreciated. I hope Sandra can cat sit for us again and I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Amanda was absolutely fantastic with our dog Beaux, our turtle, and our home. From the very beginning, she asked thoughtful and detailed questions to ensure she could provide the best care possible. Throughout her time with Beaux, she went above and beyond—scheduling play dates and even taking him to the dog beach to make sure he was happy and well-exercised. Amanda also kept us constantly updated with photos and videos, which made it clear how much Beaux was enjoying himself and feeling loved. When we returned home, our house was spotless, and she had even taken the time to water our plants! We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive, responsible, and caring sitter. Highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for exceptional pet and home care!

Suzanne is the most organized sitter we have encountered through zeewoi. She actually had a list of 30 well thought out questions for us during our first FaceTime call. She excelled at remaining in communication with us both before and during our sit. Meeting her was like meeting a ray of sunshine. She immediately set out to bond with JD and Leilani from the first moment she met them. Her daily videos were greatly appreciated. It was clear to us that our fur babies were in great hands. When the second leg of our return trip was delayed due to weather which caused the airline to rebook our last leg until the next morning she graciously altered her own plans to accommodate the change in our original plans. She dropped us off at the airport and picked us up upon our return. Suzanne takes pride in her pet sitting and is truly a gem. Your pets will be well cared for. We highly recommend Suzanne.

This was Mia's second time housesitting for us and it went as perfectly as the first time. Mia is fantastic and took such good care of our dogs. They loved their long, off-leash hikes and plentiful cuddles. I swear they are all sad that Mia has left.

I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home.  This wasn't a problem at all.  She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house.  The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned.  Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed.  Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.

I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for.  They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention.  She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating.  I highly recommend Julia and Chris.

Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!

The best cat sitters ever!  They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy!  
We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats.
The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight.
We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future.
Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x

Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!

Catherine was wonderful!  She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate.  I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house.  I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone.  She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned.  She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting.   Thank you Catherine!

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!

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!

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!

Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. 
The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. 
The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so.
Kristine comes with our highest recommendation!
Thank you Kristine!
