Joey and his friend Rebekka took such great care of Bernard! They took him to restaurants in the area, on hikes and walks around town. Our home was super clean and tidy when we arrived home. Highly recommend Joey!

Experienced Sitters + Work from Home
Would whole-heartedly recommend Jessica, and would happily have her sit again! She was communicative about arrival and departure schedules, as well as with our doggie's status. She also left our home absolutely spotless!

Caring and respectful, loving and gentle small close family ready to sit for you
Thawn, Mae (&Pitchey) were absolutely delightful. When I was leaving for my trip, they helped me collapse my dog stroller & Thawn started my motorcycle (as I was concerned about the battery). Absolutely so kind, helpful- even left me a couple of small gifts!! They were way, way above expectations! I was soooo lucky to have them!!

We love people, pets, new places & spaces!
Teresa was an absolutely wonderful zeewoi. She lovingly cared for our two girls, Belly and Jackie. She also looked after my son’s cat. She did everything we asked her to do and more. She’s responsible and thorough. Teresa’s good heart shines through. She communicated, sending updates etc. and responded quickly while we were away. I highly recommend her and hope to have her back again!!

Tidy, responsible and reliable, pet lovers!
Brittany was an absolute pleasure to work with, right from the first communication we had bout my trip and Sitter needs. She's very responsive, professional, kind, caring, clearly loves animals (and in my case, both dogs, and farm animals as I run a Farm Animal Sanctuary for rescued animals). Brittany kept me informed throughout my trip with photos and messages which I very much appreciated. And she left my house as clean, if not cleaner, than it was when she arrived at the start of the stay. Finally, I would highly recommend Brittany for Home/Pet/Farm Animal Sitting services, and would welcome an opportunity to work with her again, and often.

Pet and travel enthusiast, who would love to take care of your furry companions!
Teagan was a favorite with our pups. Because of travel issues, she ended up having to meet them on her own and they took to her right away.

Responsible, fun, and caring pet lover.
We can not say enough wonderful things about Julie Miller. She is great with our golden retriever , Lasso. Julie is very attentive and very tidy. Our home was spotless upon our return and Lasso was a very happy boy. Julie is welcome in our home anytime and we highly recommend her to sit for anyone wanting a mature and conscientious person to care for your home and pets.

It was a pleasure to have Jeanne and Alex pet sit for us while we were away for a week. Jeanne communicated very well before and during the sit and regularly shared pictures of Yuki with us. I think he got all the attention he needed! She also took good care of the house and our plants. We would love to have them pet sit for us again!

Currently in Milwaukie, OR helping a family friend downsize.
Came back to a clean house and happy pets, would definitely have Sharon sit again.
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!
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
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.
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
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.
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!
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, $60 per overnight watching in your home or $40 for a cat boarding, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
