Remote working, responsible sitter with a lot of time to spare
Daniel is simply THE BEST SITTER. We were extremely pleased to have him over for the 2nd time and we actually invited him a 3rd time to come and stay because he is simply amazing. -Daniel is extremely organised and reliable : during the sitting he would constantly update us. -he is super clean and tidy: we consider ourselves very clean but we swear that when we came back home the flat was even cleaner that when we left it! -he is loving with our cat: our cat was so comfortable and happy with Daniel that she constantly slept right next to him for a cuddle. What to say? We felt so relaxed at the idea of having him at home and we would have him back in an heartbeat!! Super recommended! Thank you Daniel ❤️

House sitters - trustworthy and friendly Flemish couple
Mirèse and Luc were absolute gems from start to finish and we cannot thank them enough for taking great care of our dog Frida and our house. From initial communications to regular updates during their stay we felt reassured and confident Frida was well looked after. Will strongly recommend to anyone!

Woman that loves life, traveling and nature
Carla was very self-sufficient and took good care of the house while we were away. Sadly for me and luckily for Carla, she wasn't required to do all that was required for a sick cat as Cassius had passed away just before her stay. My sourdough starter is still alive and the garden is in decent shape -- I know it is hard to eat/pick that many raspberries and beans! I'm pleased the chalet was in good hands while we were away. Thank you.

Dog-owner, open-minded, trustworthy couple to look after your home and pets.
TOP recommended sitters! Max and Inna were the best - we came back from our trip to a super clean home and our babies well taken care of. They both are lovely people, very responsible and tidy. They even went out of their way to clean up and organize my spice box :D Communication was always easy and we had regular updates about our fur babies. Being so far away travelling, it definitely felt at ease having them taking care of our home. Would definitely have them over again if we have a chance. Thank you Max and Inna! Best of luck!

Sitter for your house, pets and plants so you can enjoy your time away
Paula is a lovely lady to know and we are happy to have had her for our vakation this summer. She really did an exellent work, both with our cat family, and also in or quite wild "sortofgarden". Paula and I did our first whatsapp - deciding chat and after that we had an open channel for further questions updates andshort videos/pics until the startday. Paula made secure to be here in time by coming to Stockholm the day before arriving here. She is very well organized so we immediatley felt that we could be perfectly safe with her taking care of our gang. Our 3 cats are quite different personalities and also sometimes can be not so easy to please if they don't just get things in their (3 different) way. Nevertheless when they accepts the new person, they quickly adopt a new carer, and I think all the 3 of them accepted Paula almost directly. Maybe it was helpful that Paula brougt each of them a lovely catnip toy gift, wich indeed still seems to be one of the favourites. Paulas professional caring eye alerted us about our oldest cat who seemed very thirsty and drunk a lot of water for a period. At the time it was very hot here, so we decided just to observe her for a few days. Drinking often is just normal for our eldest, so luckily nothing was wrong with her this time. Also she provided our oldie special care for food. A "please-do not disturbe when eating time" because our youngest can be quite irritating and disturbing the others when try to eat. The work of a professional cat sitter. When Paula left the house was top cleaned, bedlinings in the washer and everything just as we left it. Also our sort of garden with many flowering pots were just lovely, wich made us understand Paula also is an exellent gardener. We certanlay would love to have Paula back again and she has our best rekommendations. We surely hope to welcome her back whenever she has the opportunity. Thank you Paula and best wishes from us Ylva and Burt

We are Dutch. We stopped in 2005 with our work and start to travel. In 2014 we c
Peter & Trudy are absolute God sent angels! Our place has NEVER looked this clean and organized and our dogs were very well taken cared off. We came home to a full fridge, homemade pumpkin soup, all our laundry was clean and ironed, windows were done, cabinets were organized, grass was seeded, weeds removed and and and… Our two dogs were also in great hands, they looked great, were tired from all the nice walks and got plenty of cuddles. I honestly don’t know how we deserved such wonderful house sitters. ❤️ Would highly highly recommend!!!

Mature Adventurer/Reliable and responsible
It was so great to have Cecily as a sitter. She is a very warm, friendly and generous person and took really good care of my cat, my plants and apartment, leaving everything is the best order. She even went to great trouble to adapt to my travel schedule to arrive earlier and sent me little updates to let me know everything was okay. I felt very relaxed leaving my cat in her care, and would welcome her back anytime! Thank you Cecily ☺️

Anika did a good job with the dogs and overall kept the flat nice and clean - however we noticed post visit that one of our collection wine bottles had been opened and the remainder placed back in the wine cooler. Given it’s a bottle me and my partner had stored for years it’s a shame to see that the sitter took advantage of this without asking for permission - there were plenty of other bottles we would have happily allowed to open had she asked.
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!
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
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
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!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
