Responsible, compassionate animal lover, will travel to care for your fur babies
Julie came to my house for one night on her way home from Arizona. Turns out I didn't go away that night and invited her to stay anyway. Julie is lovely. She and Zorro bonded immediately and she was very considerate and respectful during her stay at my home. This was my first experience with a zeewoi so she gave me a lot of feedback on what to expect and what to look out for when using the service. She's experienced, great with animals, well organized and trustworthy. She is welcome back to my home any time!

Lover of kids and pets (is there a difference?).
Celeste was an amazing guest who treated our home with care and respect. She took Guapo on his daily walks, played with him, and made sure he was happy and well-exercised. She left our home even better than she found it, followed all our instructions perfectly, and adapted easily to last-minute changes. Celeste is welcome back anytime to dogsit Guapo. Two paws up!

Self-employed Traveling Pet Lover
Kadi was great! She was always quick to respond, kept us updated on the fur kids, and was generally just a pleasure to talk to! She left our place immaculately clean and even mowed the lawn while we were away. She went above and beyond in so many other ways that I can’t remember them all. For example, one of our dogs got sick right before we left and Kadi took great care of her amazingly and handled the situation like a champ. She also took care of our plants even though we hadn’t asked. And then she offered to fix one of our car tires for us! I’m sure I’m forgetting other great things because there were a lot, haha. Anywho, to anyone considering Kadi in the future: you’d be silly not to get Kadi as your next house sitter. We hope to have her back or just hang out with her when she returns to New Orleans!

What a joy, to travel the way of the heart. -Rumi
Kelly was wonderful! Communicative and reliable. I felt so comfortable watching my cat and my home while I was away. Would have Kelly back in a heart beat!

Kind and Responsible Humans Seeking Interspecies Friendships, Near and Far
We can't think of better sitters than CJ and Allie. They have sat for us several times, and each time providing excellent care for Moby and Bella, and our home. Their reliability and attention to detail give us complete peace of mind when we are away. Hard to tell who is more excited about CJ and Allie staying at house, us or Moby/Bella!

Ian kept in touch, asked appropriate questions, and both cats were happy and well fed when we got home. Of course he didn't get to see our phantom cat, but she came right out when we walked in the door and reported her care had been great.

Terri takes great care of our dogs and our home! We are very lucky to have had her as our housesitter multiple times. We have no worries leaving our house and our dogs in her hands. She is always caring and responsive, and has been there for us and our dogs even through emergency situations. Our dogs love her so much! Thank you again Terri!

Photographer. Animal Lover. Traveler.
Rachel was terrific! From our first email exchange Rachel was reliable, friendly, and incredibly competent. We had no worries leaving our 3!!!! dogs at home in our apartment in Manhattan while we travelled in France. We can’t recommend Rachel highly enough.

House sitting experience since 1991 in Brooklyn, New Orleans and Hawaii
Louis and Natalia were great. Louis checked in with me every few days with pictures and updates. He took Roux to a park daily to play fetch. I was able to meet Louis and Natalia prior to the sit and was very comfortable with both of them and knew Roux was in good hands. Louis also took good care of my many potted plants which I know was a lot of work. I would strongly recommend Louis and Natalia to others.
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
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!
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
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!
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
