Robert and Florence took such great care of our Curly. We could tell he was well loved while we were out of town. I had mentioned to them about Curly’s bad breath and Florence provided some suggestions and took action to help! Curly’s breath issues are gone! Thank you! Robert and Florence were flexible with us. Our flights home got very delayed and we were not going to be home in time for their planned departure. They were open to driving Curly over to my sister’s house 20-25 minutes away so he had care until we got home. We were comfortable having Robert and Florence in our home and appreciated their updates on Curly. Thanks again!

So grateful to have found Chris to take care of my dogs. I met Chris 2 times before we agreed to the sit. He is pleasant and my dogs bonded with him straight away. Chris did send me some updates about the dogs and when he wasn’t sure about something he did text me. When I came back from my trip, the dogs looks healthy and happy. The house was clean and tidy. I will highly recommend Chris and will ask him to pet sit again.

Cynthia and Robert are a delightful couple. Well travelled and easygoing. They arrived prepared and had read the information regarding our house and dogs despite having travelled all day. They are very organised and self-sufficient, organising all travel to the area as well as a delight to sit down and talk with. While away, we received regular updates and a delicious meal upon returning. The dogs were well cared for and we could tell they also enjoyed their company. Happy dogs, clean home and delightful company. Thank you Bob and Cynthia. We hope you have a lovely time in Iceland.

My 2 chihuahuas are usually a handful and they both ended up getting sick while we were away. Anne took them to the vet on multiple occasions and cleaned up after them for many days while we were away. We were grateful to have Anne take care of them so diligently :)

Nicholas was the perfect fit for our month long housesit. We have two large dogs - a 3-year old 70lbs standard poodle and a 2-year old 65lbs labradoodle. Nicholas diligently took the dogs on lengthy walks twice a day and followed all the dietary requests for the dogs. He communicated regularly throughout our trip. We arrived home to a spotless house, healthy plants and trees in the dead of summer, and a yard clean of dog poop. We hope he can sit for us for our next trip! Thank you, Nick!

Randy had sat for me several times and the sit worked out great for both. Unfortunately this time was not the case. In the springtime in my area, male carpenter bees begin to look for wood and create holes for the females to lay their eggs. Carpenter bees look like large bumble bees and are harmless. They don't even have stingers. Randy reacted in the extreme when she saw these on my deck and porch. Carpenter bees are great pollinators and should not be killed. She contacted me after day two and said she could not stay at my house another night. At that time I was 2,500 miles away, about to enter the Sierra Nevada Mountains and soon would not have cell phone access. I stopped my trip and contacted a pest control company to ask what they could do. I learned Randy had also done so and we both learned there was little they could do that would make any difference in the next 24-48 hours. Randy felt this was my problem since I knew they were on the deck and I should have done something before she arrived. I told her I had not, because I knew they were harmless and not to be feared. This did not matter to her and she said she would not stay any longer. I had no choice but to contact and hire a paid sitter to look after my dog for the remainder of the sit. Needless to say, I will not have Randy ever sit for me again.

Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!

Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!

Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!

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!

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!

If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy!  I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch.  I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through.  I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats!

Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!).  I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly,  who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer.  I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was.

Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport.  When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook.  He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping.  He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!).  We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands.

Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away.  He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties).    When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me!

It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter.  He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!

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 sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along.

I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details.

Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters!

Regards!

Edward
