Shantoye
Rio, Florida
Hello there
This was a repeat sit for Shantoye; we love having her here! She does such a good job of caring for our two guinea pigs and two senior cats. She gives them a lot of love and attention, and sends us daily photo and video updates. She is very organized and makes planning the sit easy. We look forward to having her back!

Positive, responsible, and dependable dog lover you can count on. :)
Jessica watched Riley for us for 3 weeks and we would definitely have her back. She was very self sufficient and helpful doing some stuff for us while we were away. She was tidy and it was great to come home to a clean house after being away so long.

Dependable Couple Looking for Pets to Love in New Locations
Douglas and Emily could not have been more respectful, reliable, and loving house sitters. They took perfect care of my home and kitties. They sent pictures and videos of my very old cat feeling safe and cozy with them, which is everything I could ask for. They left the place in perfect condition. I am so happy with my experience with them. I wish I could have them for every house sitting job. You would be lucky to have them sit for you, truly!

Peace of Mind while You're Away! Kind, Responsible and Reliable Retired Couple
Ellen and Hal sat our dog Molly for nine days. They were perfect in every way: communicative, reliable, caring toward Molly and our home (which they left in spotless condition). It was so nice to be able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about a thing. Molly is getting on in years, and requires more care and attention. They gave her this extra attention, and she was happy and healthy when we returned. They are excellent pet sitters.
Mar
Rio, Florida
Adventurous Travel Enthusiast Ready to Shower Your Fur Baby with Love ♥️
Mar exceeded our expectations. She sent us beautiful photos of our dog and kept in touch during this long stay. She is extremely reliable. She also went above and beyond to assist us with the house during a storm. The house was tidy, and Camila was happy upon our return. Mar even helped Camila to become friends with her “enemy” the pool cleaner. Highly recommend!
Terry
Rio, Florida
Super Enthusiastic home, pet and plant Lovin’ Woman
Terry exceeded our expectations for being our Trusted Sitter! This was our first time using the Trusted Sitters services, and Terry answered questions we did not think to ask. While we were away, she sent videos and photos of our sweet kitty, Allie, and gave us updates on her adjustment to a new caregiver. Finally, she thanked us for offering our home to her and cleaned the entire place before our return. I believe we gained a new "chosen family member" with Terry and we hope to see her again soon!

Auntie Anne will care for your pets! Winter/Florida Summer/ Canada
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
Rio, Florida
Retired Air Force guy traveling the world, coming to a town near you..!!
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!
Honeybee
Rio, Florida
Kind, Nurturing, & Adventurous Solo Sitter!
Honeybee was an incredible house guest who took amazing care of our dog. She made sure our dog was happy, well-fed, and exercised, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Honeybee’s attentiveness and kindness truly made her a standout guest.
Reviews from Cat Owners

Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Anne
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
KATHLEEN
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!

Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!

Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!

Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !

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.

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 :)
