Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.
Lifelong pet lover, longtime pet sitter!
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!
Caring and loving pet-sitter.
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!
Fit and fun "young" retired couple offer peace of mind while you are away!
Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.
Experienced housesitters looking to travel and make some furry friends!
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!
WFH researcher excited to provide quality care to your furry loved ones!
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!
Experienced and zeewoi with excellent references!
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.
Intrepid traveler and animal lover
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!
Experienced sitter, 5-star reviews. Meticulous, quiet, non-smoker.
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.

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 absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
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.
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.
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.

cool
I am absolutely delighted with the Oh Dog company! The staff are simply fantastic. 🥰 My dog has already had 4 years of happiness taking walks and boarding at the lodge. Every morning, she is so happy when they come to pick her up for nature walks, and hears them coming! Maëlle is adorable, attentive and Jeremy does the grooming with great care. I have full confidence with the whole team who are all caring. I can only recommend them!
I left my 7 month old puppy for 5 days. At first, I was a little stressed, since it was the first time I left him alone in a boarding house. But from the first call, I knew he was going to be in good hands. Jérémy is very kind and professional. As soon as I put him down, Sky was already happy. I received photos and videos, which reassured me enormously. Sky was very happy. I 100% recommend this boarding house if you are looking for a family place where your dogs feel at home. I also really appreciated the grooming that Jeremy offered, perfect job! I will count on them in the future without hesitation!
Trust, professionalism, kindness, and cleanliness; we collect our dog each time in excellent condition and delighted with her stay at Oh Dog. Without forgetting the location where the pension is located: a true haven of peace! Thank you Jérémy and the whole team for your quality service.
It's a very good team. They take great care of their residents. I picked up my dog happy and on good feet... and already looking forward to next time. THANKS
We are so happy with ohdog! They are kind, professional, true dog lovers, their walks in nature and freedom are very appreciated by our Golden who needs to walk a lot. Their pension is a magnificent place, a real luxury hotel 😊and the grooming is very very good too! To recommend without hesitation!
Terrible reception from the person who came out to serve us. He shouted at us because we don't speak French, even though we asked him if he spoke the traditional vehicular language of Switzerland, which is English. Do not come to this place, be careful, because you risk being mistreated by this person.
Superb welcome and great service. The staff is available and takes great care of our faithful companions. Jeremy even sent us photos. Bravo for this high-end service.
The Oh dog team is great! I highly recommend the pension, my dog is always happy to stay there and I greatly trust them to take care of her! :)
Cindy is the absolute best. She cares so much about the animals she takes care of. She is super responsive, keeps us up to date on our cats while we are away with pictures and videos, and she makes scheduling easy and organized. One time (not when she was responsible for our cats) one of our cats went missing for a few days and she went above and beyond to connect us or connect for us with local veterinarians, online groups, posting boards where we could put word out about our missing cat. She also checked in with us every day until he returned safely home just because she cares.
I have been leaving my puppy at Bien Dans Ses Papattes for a few months and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful place for him. Cindy is amazing and I know my furry friend is being looked after with love and care. Great service, I highly recommend!! Thank you so much !
We left our golden retriever late last year for a long weekend. Our beloved Evie returned with a bite in her mouth and in her ear which was not openly discussed when we picked her up. At the price which is quite high, we expected better care and communication.
My two girls Zara and Zoe, one a senior and the other still a pup both were very happy during their visit. They loved being outside in a big garden with lots of space to run and play. Well looked after in a home, family environment.
Being the human of a little dog from Romania who is anxious and has many sensitivities, I was worried about finding a boarding facility where her needs and fears would be respected, and where daily work would not be ruined. Cindy was recommended to me and she is a gem! Sauge has been going there for short stays as well as vacations for over two years, and I couldn't live without it. This is summer camp for her! She cries when I tell her "we're going to Cindy's", and often doesn't even want to leave. Cindy takes care of him as if he were her own, gives him his medication, sends me videos regularly, and even teaches him to manage some of his fears. When you have an anxious dog, it's a lot of daily management. Being able to leave Sage and know that whatever happens, she is in good hands, and that I can enjoy 100% of my moments without her, is a luxury. Whether you have a sensitive little one or not, I can only recommend Cindy (and her mother), who admirably manages all these little people in a caring and enlightened education. Thank you Cindy ❤️
Well in one's paws is the ideal place for a dog's well-being. Cindy is a person completely devoted to her dogs whom she adores and they reciprocate! My two dogs from Romania were welcomed with open arms and are always happy to spend their holidays there. Cindy is a reliable person and gives very good advice. We can count on her. In case of problems she always gives very good advice and finds solutions. She is very professional and she gives a lot of love to all the dogs. The place is magnificent. Everything is brought together in this place to make dogs feel good. Cindy how lucky my dogs and I are to know you!!
I thank Cindy for welcoming my young Pyrenees shepherd Malu so that he can get used to staying a few hours without me and enjoying the heavenly environment of the little house and its large garden. Malu immediately loved playing with all his friends. Cindy received us with open arms, with a lot of tenderness, availability and patience for my ball of fur. His passion and professionalism for dogs is incredible. Thank you with all my heart.
A simply incredible family pension, like home even better. Total trust in Cindy who listens to each dog and understands them better than anyone. I had the chance to meet her for our little one and I can never thank her enough for everything she has already given our dog. A big thank you for this love you have for dogs
Cindy is a professional in her profession, she welcomes and takes care of dogs wonderfully. Always very attentive and despite the difference in size, age and race, all these little people find their place and evolve in a large park as they please under the always vigilant gaze of Cindy. I have a little bichon who gets along with both young and old. I always admire Cindy for the joy she has in taking care of all these little ones and I thank her for so much dedication. Chantal Caruso
I cannot recommend Cindy's services highly enough. My Toddy looks forward to every visit. As soon as we approach the house, he starts to quiver with happiness, and that says a lot about the affection he receives! Cindy's kindness and flexibility really creates a great environment for our little Todd, who is very exhausted at the end of each day (and yes, it's tiring to have fun with friends!). Thank you so much Cindy!
Ana's been cat-sitting for our pet for four years now. She's everything you'd want in a pet-sitter: responsible, professional, communicative, and most of all very caring and sweet with our cat. She's also pointed out when there seem to be any issues with our cat, which is really helpful and says a lot about her thoroughness and care as a sitter. I actively have been recommending her to everyone I know in Lausanne with a cat who needs someone reliable to take care of them while they're on vacation. Thank you Ana! So glad we found you.
Ana has been taking care of my 2 cats every time I travel for the past 5 years. She is trustworthy, reliable and communicative, sending pictures and updates on the cats frequently. She also pays attention and reports suspicious/abnormal behaviors (signs of diarrhea, pee outside the litter box, eating less than usual, etc) — and has at times done some extra visits to check on their well-being after such incidents. Leaving your apartment’s key and the well-being of your pets to a stranger is a delicate matter, and I’m happy that Ana has become a friend over the years and seen my family evolve and grow.
Ana is the best pet sitter I ever had! Loving and caring, she’s trustworthy and flexible. My dog loves her because she treats it as if would be her own pet. I highly recommend her services. Thank you, Ana, for being so nice and flexible.
We travel a lot and without any worries as my 2 cats are getting taken care if by Phoebe and Friends in the most perfect way since 5 years…. A reliable, professional and great service and I recommend it to everybody! Ana is taking care of my two babies and they love her!
Ana is a lovely and kind pet sitter. She truly loves the dogs and even goes out of her way to pamper them on special occasions. She is a trained dog groomer as well and does a great job in making the little furballs be neat, clean and look awesome!
Ana has cared for my 2 little yorkies keeping them overnight and also grooming them. I trust her implicitly with my dogs as it is rare to meet someone so caring and reliable. If she takes care of your pets, they will indeed be in very good hands and you can rest assured that they will be safe and happy.
Ana is a godsend! She is so good with our Lucy and Lucy loves her as well. Its so rare to find a dogsitter who is dedicated and loves her client like Ana. Even for overnight boarding Ana welcomes Lucy as if she was part of the family! We couldnt recommend Ana enough!
Ana was unreliable, I contacted her end of the morning, she agreed on keeping my dog for 3 hours for the following afternoon and at the end of the day she cancelled. While she agreed after a few basic questions (the dog breed, age, dog behaviour) she was dishonest afterwards saying that if she cancelled it is because she doesn’t accept dog she doesn’t know. Also her price was very high 20chf/ h.
I had the chance to meet Ana, she is a reliable pet sitter. She took care of my adorable little Malou (cat) during the holidays, went there three times a week, fed her, cleaned the litter box, gave her fresh water and a little affection. I highly recommend his services.
Hello everybody! Ana really has a love for animals and I'm glad she works with pets because that's what she loves, working with these angels from heaven! I recommend it to you!
super dog sitter, she looks after my dog regularly. Very professional. She is very respectful of animal welfare, when I placed my dog in her home, I received lots of photos. My dog loved his stay!
