If you are lucky enough to have Lauren and Dalyn house and pet sit for you, you and your pets will be very, very happy! Lauren's communication from your first conversation is excellent and fun and puts you at ease that "all will be well while you're away". She'll text you daily, occasionally or not at all, whatever you prefer and she sends great pictures. Our two dogs got long daily walks, lots of love and lots of attention. When we got home and walked in our house, our pups were very ho-hum about our arrival, as if they hadn't even noticed we were gone! That's good pet sitting 😊. To add to that, they also take exceptionally good care of your home. They whole house was immaculate, not a dog hair on the floor (how she did that I have no idea), all the laundry was done and professionally folded (not exaggerating), and she had prepped a meal for our first night home, which was excellent! Not to mention fresh flowers around the house. Oh, and the yard was freshly mowed. Just wow. Lauren and Dalyn are just an exceptional young couple.

This was our second sit with Michele and Poppy, and we’d be delighted to have them back any time! Michele is an attentive and very caring pet sitter and takes great care of everything.

Where the road leads we follow but usually with a leash in hand.
Michelle and Garrett were great! They came pretty last minute which was great. They were able to take care of our two dogs and 27 chickens. One of our dogs we've only had for a month, and they did great with her! I'd recommend them and use them at sitters again if they are available.

We have a home in Portland, Oregon area and NW Florida and travel frequently.
Rich and Marg were great housesitters and so pleasant to communicate with! They took great care of the pets and left our home looking great. We hope they'll come back again :)!

What a great sit. I felt so relieved to know Blanca was safe and well taken care of. Thanks for being such a great Housesitter Nicole. I hope you enjoyed your stay

Aloha, I look forward to sitting for you!
Only the best to say! Meghan and her mom stayed for a month. We came home to happy healthy dogs and a spotless home. Communication was great. We had a few house issues (AC went out; an exterminator issue) and they handled them easily and competently with no drama. Really cannot recommend them highly enough. Would use them again in a heartbeat!

This was the second time Susan watched Sam. I feel so lucky! She left the house nice and neat. She sent me fun photos and was easy to chat with when anything came up. Sam is happy and he missed her last night - even going to the spare room to look for her. So I am certain she was amazing from a dog perspective too. Thanks Susan!

I will care for your pets and home with the deepest love and respect
Cher did an excellent job looking after our 2 dogs. She is very patient and caring and our dogs loved her from the first moment. She is well organized and managed the feeding and all other chores around the house perfectly. We can only recommend Cher as an honest, caring and reliable house/pet sitter. Thank you, Cher for making our live easier.

Vincent & Anastasia were outstanding in taking care of Murphy & Pretzel along with teaching them some new tricks. It was evident when they left the two were looking for them. Highly recommend!

Respectful family of five with lots of animal care experience.
Curtis and Elizabeth were amazing house sitters. This is the second time they sat for us, and I could not be happier. Their children are well behaved and know how to play with my dog. I came home to a house that was cleaner than I left it. And, they left me some beautiful flowers as well. I cannot wait to have them sit for me again.
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
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.
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
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.
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.
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
