Lindsay and Cody looked after our 2 kitties Mixa and Kublah and our home for 3 weeks. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our home was spotless and the kitties chilled and relaxed

Richard and Lorraine were fantastic house and petsitters, who kept our energetic puppy well entertained while we were away. In spite of the rising tide of pandemic fear, and a strong (and understandable) desire to head home to Canada, they made sure our pets were well cared for until our return. They kept us well informed with emails and photos, and were also just lovely people. I would invite them back with no reservations.

Great experience, from the intro to the sitting. Sam is supper easy to communicate with, he replies quickly and always provides all the information needed. They arrived on time as scheduled, were clear about their plans and overall super reliable. I felt very comfortable leaving Ginger with Sam and Anna, and will do it again if the opportunity arises. The apartment was clean and everything in place. Thank you guys!!

Kevin and Erica were amazing! They took great care of our house and cats, and were communicative before, during, and after the sit. They let us know when they were arriving and leaving, sent us a bunch of great photos, and more! Kevin even offered to mow our lawn for us! Everything was super clean and tidy when we returned, and the cats were very happy too. We'd gladly have them back!

Robert had a lot on his plate taking care of our place for 5 weeks. Two horses, a cat and a vegetable garden as well as a large lawn requiring regular cutting. He took care of the animals and vegetable garden with love and care. The house was neat and tidy when we arrived home. We are very thankful we found someone that was capable and willing to take care of our home, animals and property while we were away.

Bob and Marion were wonderful! Our younger dog is a bit anxious and is usually nervous around new people but she warmed up to them right away. They sent pictures of their lovely walks with the dogs, were very clean, and they even tidied up our not-so-tidy garden. We highly recommend them!

Our sweet Bella swallowed a one-inch piece of glass while in the care of Nicole and Richard. She threw it up, however, some complications (cuts in her throat most likely) persisted. While Nicole and Richard are not responsible for her eating the glass, I was disappointed with the way they handled this emergency. Rather than calling me instantly, which is protocol, they called zeewoi then googled how to handle the situation. My immediate concern was that Bella may have swallowed more than one piece of glass and it was traveling through her digestive system. By the time I was contacted, the vet could no longer see Bella because it was the end of the day. However, the vet advised me that Bella be taken to the emergency vet hospital immediately. There was a long wait at the emergency hospital and after many hours Nicole and Richard were irritated and wanted to go home with Bella. I called the 24-hour Vet provided by zeewoi (an excellent service!) and she told me Bella should definitely stay at the emergency clinic and see a vet asap. This incident occurred within days of Bella being in Nicole and Richard’s care and they seemed surprisingly cavalier about the seriousness of the potential consequences and did not detect the ongoing problem with her swallowing. Additionally, I was disappointed to return home at 10:30pm after a long day of travel to find that Nicole and Richard had not moved their car from my parking space (I searched for street parking but eventually paid for parking for the night), had not moved their stuff (a lot of it) from the apartment, and had not completed the laundry (I had no towel). I arrived at the pre-arranged time, so I am uncertain why they were unprepared for my arrival. Also, I spent time cleaning the next day. Nicole and Richard are very nice, and I like them. Nicole was excellent at communicating daily with photographs. I would, however, recommend other pet owners carefully review emergency protocol and expectations regarding state of home upon return, if asking Nicole and Richard to care for their pet and home. And keep in mind, that this was an extraordinary and pretty extreme incident. This may be a one-off experience, and I hope whoever is considering Nicole and Richard will ask their own questions.

Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!

It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!

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

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!

I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!

We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.

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.

Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!

My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment.  They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay.  It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets.  They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions.  Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue.  As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary.  When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort.  We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters.  We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool.  (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!)  On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home.  Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

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!
