Retired animal-loving travelers in search of new places and fur babies to love.
Lynda was awesome! Excellent communication and the animals were so happy. I felt totally at ease knowing that the animals, and my home, were in such caring and competent hands. Lynda kept me up to date on the goings on and sent photos as well. I would not hesitate to have Lynda sit for me again. 10/10 recommend!

Dog and Cat Lovers waiting to help out other pet lovers who have to travel
Gerry was incredible! When we met him with Wagner, there was an immediate connection between the two of them. During our trip, we felt very relaxed because every picture from Wagner showed him looking very happy. Additionally, Gerry left the apartment clean and tidy; everything was perfect! His energy was the best, and he stayed with Wagner until we confirmed that our flight was on time and we were going to arrive home with him. We would love for Gerry to stay again; we are sure Wagner already misses him.

Responsible retired couple
Loved having Janet and Al take care of my puppy!. While I was overseas, they would take pictures of Aoife and go to McDonald’s and use the Wi-Fi to send them to me since I have no Wi-Fi – simply can’t afford it and do these mission trips. At My request they actually stayed overnight a couple of weeks before my petsit d/t they had two pets sets further south. Aoife warmed up to them immediately! They made sure they played ball with her and walked her every day, even though it rained a lot of the days they were here. She was well taken care of. I never worried the entire time I was overseas. My house was very clean when I got home and Janet left me little flower .arrangements and a wonderful dessert for me to enjoy! You will be completely satisfied having them pet sit for your beloved pet! I hope they come back again!!!

Animal loving couple to look after your pets and home
Patti and her husband were dream house sitters and looked after our dog beautifully and with care. It was so easy to hand over our house to them and not worry about our old dog while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others and they will be my first call when we travel next time. Love this service!!

Caring and Responsible Homeowners Would Like to Housesit For You!
We couldn’t have asked for better care for our pup. Kelly and Patrick provided a video chat before the visit and came to meet us in person before we left for our trip. We felt very relaxed knowing our pup was in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Professional Accountant pursuing other possibilities :) :)
We were thrilled to have Debbie return for a second sit. She truly looks after my pets like they are her own, and they love her to pieces. I have complete trust and confidence that my dog Lulu is safe and loved while I am away. This time, my son’s cat joined Debbie and my dog for a few days due to unexpected circumstances and Debbie managed that arrangement with ease and to everyone’s comfort. Debbie also left my home in spotless condition for my return,so nice to return to a happy dog and a clean and tidy home with everything the way I like it :) To top it off, Debbie is a lovely person who I am happy to now consider a friend. Please move to NS Debbie!

Canadian-Aussie ... strong and fit
A huge thanks to Jacqui, Steve and Narelle for care of Max and Molly in my absence and it was a bonus to meet Jacqui and Steve before the sit ( immediately felt home and cats were in good hands) Molly says thanks for all the head and belly rubs!! Please don’t take Max’s body language personally ( he has always been standoffish to everyone but me) They even brought their own sheets so I wouldn’t have laundry to do. My home was exactly as I left it with two happy cats waiting. I would welcome them to sit anytime.

Words cannot describe how amazing Sharon and Brian are! Not only were they very self-sufficient they went above and beyond by going that extra mile to make my return home less stressful. Highly recommend them and would LOVE to have them back!

Caring Canadian Keen to Cuddle Your Pets and Care For Your Home!
Trish was a fabulous pet sitter. She befriended our animals instantly, and gave us daily updates and photos of their antics during our absence. She genuinely enjoyed our cats and dogs, and even tried to befriend the rooster! Our house was very well cared for, too. Thanks, Trish, for your incredible care.

Mature and loving
We met Chris last year while he was sitting a neighbor’s home and dog, and we clicked straight away and even became friends. Chris is very interesting, responsive, and extremely reliable. So, at the first opportunity we had, we asked him if he would like to sit for us and fortunately, he did! Chris and Moxie got along so well!! He was very present for her, took her out for drives in the car and at the beach, and took care of her like his own dog. We were away in Europe for about 18 days, and Chris took the time to send us a quick message (and often a picture or video of Moxie) every day to reassure us! He was also very responsive to our messages! We had full confidence and peace of mind, and everything went smoothly. We came back to a clean home, a very relaxed & happy dog and on top of it, a homemade meal waiting for us after our long travel back home… We really hope Chris will sit for us again. We have nothing but praise for him and highly recommend him to look after your home and your pet.
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!
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
Ally was great! We got to meet for a few minutes before I headed out and I felt super reassured that both Goose and my home were in good hands. My cat is picky when it comes to strangers, but he was comfy in Ally’s lap right away the first night! She communicated well and sent cute pictures while I was away. My home was clean and Goose was happy when o got back. I highly recommend Ally as a sitter and she’s welcomed back anytime!
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!
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.
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.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me 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!
