Aussie professional couple with a world of experience & a passion for adventure.
David and Fiona were incredible sitters! They updated us daily, and we loved the humorous quips from David. From the moment we met them we knew they would be good sitters for George. We came home to the happiest boy and a spotless apartment. They even gifted us a gorgeous houseplant!! We'd happily have David and Fiona sit for us again any time!

Our experience with Ray was excellent. It was our first time using Trusted House-sitter, and we were delighted. Communication flowed very well. Rocky is currently undergoing treatment for his eyes, and Ray helped us continue it. When we arrived, the house was clean and tidy. He was even kind enough to change the sheets for us since our flight was arriving very late. We truly recommend Ray 100%. He is very responsible and respectful.

Remote workers, online business owners, and of course, animal lovers!
My dogs loved Mona and Oliver and I could not have been happier with their pet care and their home care. 😊 True animal enthusiasts, they were great with communication, sending pictures and messages, making sure I knew that Colonel and Winnie were doing fine and getting great care. In addition to making sure my buddies were taken care of, they were very respectful of my apartment and left it in perfect condition. Both Mona and Oliver are open and warm, with a kind, easy going disposition. I would absolutely welcome them back at any time!

Retired British/American professional couple looking to become your new sitter!
It was an absolute pleasure to have Kate and Charlie stay in our house and look after our girls. They are a very relaxed and easy going couple who we (incl Bubbels and Cannelle) instantly felt at ease with. Communications were excellent with regular updates during our absence. We came home to happy pets, a spotless house (even towels drying on the line) and were served a delicious dinner. We highly recommend Kate and Charlie and would be delighted to welcome them back as we just don't think it gets much better.

Be in peace of mind while you are away, I'll love look after your pets for you.
Adriana was a lovely sitter for Cocoa, she is a very calm and caring person who clearly loves animals, Cocoa was immediately happy in her company. We received daily photos and updates which we enjoyed. Everything was very clean and tidy in the house when we returned. Anyone would be lucky to have Adriana as their sitter and we would be happy to have her return to us again in the future.

Remote working couple seeks home sitting opportunities for Summer 24'- Summer 25
We feel so fortunate to have had Maggie & Ciro looking after our place, our plants and most of all, our dog Otter. Otter was happy & content and plants looked great upon our return. I'll confess, this being our first time using zeewoi.com, it felt pretty weird to be entrusting our home and furry child to people we didn't know. But Maggie's excellent communication made all the difference...from meeting prior to departure, to photos and notes while we were away, her warmth and care shone through. She was also a communication rock star when we had to unexpectedly return home a day early due to a medical emergency. We highly recommend Maggie & Ciro as housesitters.

Active and enthusiastic couple available for dog walking and house sitting!
Jeroen and Hanna were excellent pet sitters for our two dogs. Before the stay they were communicative of their plans, which made me feel very comfortable leading up to our trip. During our trip they took great care of our dogs and sent us pictures and updates. The house was left clean and they even made us a homemade treat to have on our arrival home! I would highly recommend them.

We will care for your fur babies as if our own
Veronica and Bryan were fabulous sitters! They were incredibly communicative before and during their stay and looked after Mabel beautifully. We received updates every day about Mabel with lots of photos to show us how she was getting on. They also looked after our house perfectly and left it spotless - really wonderful house guests, would love to have them back!
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
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.
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
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!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
