Richard was a great sitter for my dog, Willow, and Leopard Gecko, Godzilla! He was communicative ahead of the sit and we were able to make flexible changes to dates together. Richard asked to have his daughter visit during the sit which was great, as a dog lover her sent several photos of her snuggling with Willow. Overall very respectful of our home and all was well with the animals. Would welcome him back any time!

Charli and Jeff were amazing pet/house sitters. My Pepper was happy and well taken care of. I couldn’t ask for better people to stay in my home. They were responsible and considerate of my time and house. I found everything super clean and tidy. And to boot, they can be my friends. They are super friendly and nice. I would have Charli and Jeff in my home in a heartbeat. Thank you so much guys. You made my first experience with House-sitters a pleasure. Hope to have you guys back again. Thanks a million!!

Jamie was a fantastic sitter! Before I left, we met twice to discuss my cats’ care. They had clearly read my instructions carefully and had a ton of relevant experience. During the sit, Jamie sent daily updates and pictures. I have a cat with health issues - they sent regular updates regarding his health, administered medication as needed, and checked in when they had questions. The cats clearly took to them quickly. I came back to happy and healthy pets and an apartment that was cleaner than when I left. I’d highly recommend Jamie!

Julia and Jake were excellent house and pet sitters. Four cats and a 113 year old house are a lot to manage, but they did so with humor and resilience. My older kitty was having some uncharacteristic health issues which required Julia to take her to the vet twice while I was gone, which was above and beyond the call. All of the cats really look to both of them so I didn't have to worry about the kitties being sad or neglected. Two thumbs up.

What do you say about the repeat house sitters who are already perfect? We were lucky enough to secure Mark and Deb for a 2 month stay. They have sat for us multiple times before, so there was no second guessing (and a little yip of excitement from me and our kitty) when their offer to sit came through. Mark and Deb are great at communicating, very reliable, and fantastic at pet care as seen by multiple pictures showing Ricky being played with and sitting in their laps (we were a little jealous) while we were away. I think Mark and Deb are true cat lovers. A 2 month sit means real life living, not just a few days or a week. I mean they had to eat and shower, right? We came home to a house that was so neat and clean we couldn't tell they were there except for the notes they left behind. They reached out with questions or concerns, let us know when packages arrived, took out the garbage, did all the asks like plant watering and filling bird feeders outside, and took great care of our little Ricky. If you're lucky enough to get them, go for it. Mark and Deb are always welcome at our house.

Amanda and Rich are such an amazing, kind and understanding couple. Unfortunately our trip got canceled last minute, but we still invited them to stay with us, if they wanted too. And we are glad they did! We did decide to do a one night getaway to give them some alone time. Gabbie was so happy with them...she went on nice walks, had great snuggles and enjoyed spending time in her backyard with them. Charlie and I didn't worry one moment while we were gone. When we returned, Gabbie would run upstairs every morning to find her new friends. That lets us know she was well loved while we were gone. The evening they left, they had already washed the sheets/towels, re-made the bed, cleaned the bathroom and left everything perfect. We are very grateful Amanda and Rich decided to still do this sit despite us not going on travel. We met wonderful people who are now our friends. Now if we can just get them to move to Charleston :) In sum: Secure Amanda and Rich for your next sit. Your pet will be loved!

Jaci and Jerry were delightful and resilient sitters. We were off-line (in a remote area) for most of the week we were away and unable to communicate so they HAD to figure things out for themselves, and they did. On top of that, our power went out 24 hours before we returned, but they rolled with it even though I know it wasn't easy. I know the dogs were well loved and well taken care of in our absence, and the house was tidy and in order. All good!

This is your dog sitter. Kari just left yesterday and when we walked in to an immaculate clean house and very satisfied dogs, I knew we picked the right sitter. She was in touch daily with details and sending pictures. So glad she made the trip to California as we couldn't have picked anyone better. Thank you Kari for giving us a great vacation knowing our fur babies were well taken care of. So much love and appreciation for taking care of our house and dogs!

Lisa and Mitch just completed a second sit with our dog, Tinsley, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Because she was in their capable hands, we did not worry about her for a minute and were able to enjoy a carefree vacation. Communication before and during the sit was wonderful, and we appreciated Lisa's frequent updates and photos of a happy Tinsley enjoying her time with them. When we returned, the house was spotless and our dog was obviously well looked after. Lisa and Mitch are a delightful couple, and we are happy that our paths crossed. We highly recommend them as wonderful and zeewoi!

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!

Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend!

. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.

We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.

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!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn!  I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20.  She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person.   She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well.  My cats took to her quickly.  When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before.  While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc.  She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose.  I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!

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!

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!

Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
