Over 124 Years of Pet Pampering Experience
We met Robert and Jolene for the first time when they came to housesit and care for our dog, Gator. Upon meeting them, they absorbed the information we were sharing with them and were relaxed and self-assured. Throughout our vacation, we received many photos and texts about Gator. When we returned home Gator looked very well cared for and content and the house was meticulously clean. Our pond was in great shape and our koi looked very happy - well, as happy as a fish can look! We hope that Jolene and Robert will come back in the future. We feel like we've made new friends.

Animals and Adventures
Jessica and her companion looked after Conni, my cocker spaniel, for five days. From the moment of first making contact to the end of the sit, Jessica communicated in a clear and timely way. On arrival she was keen to know all of Conni's routines and on my return Conni was clearly very happy and settled, which is exactly what I wanted to return to. I would be very happy to recommend her to others.

Cat Purrs & Dog Kisses, WarmFurry Cuddles, These are a Few of my Favorite Things
Audrey was a wonderful choice to care for our animals, and we were lucky to have her! She was caring and organized and we came home to happy, relaxed pets and a clean house! At the beginning of the sit, Audrey arrived early so we could go through feeding routines for horses before our departure. We had a chance to meet her, and she is a confident, attentive person who who made us instantly comfortable. When we hit some road bumps with a plumbing project in our horse barn while we were away, she went above and beyond to stay in touch with us, help deal with the issues and oversee the project to its finish. Audrey is an amazing choice for any home owner and pet parent who wants to leave their pets in capable hands!

Retired and ready to travel and care for your pets and home as if it's our own.
Sunshine loves Kelly and Alan! This is the second time Kelly and Alan have taken care of Sunshine. They are so sweet. The communication before, during and after their sit was great. They sent updates and pictures. They met with our neighbor who they will be petsitting for and Sunshine didn't leave their side. It was so nice not to worry how my pup was doing during my vacation and knowing they were taking care of her, the house and everything was ok. I feel so lucky to have met them (I was referred by good friends who they sat for their pup too) and hope it works out that they can come back again. Sunshine really loved them and wasn't anxious when I got home. The house also was spotless. Thank you Kelly and Alan! See you in October when you watch Winston. Keep in touch if you ever want to come back to our home too. Hopefully we can walk when you are here in a couple months! Bobbi and Sunshine

California family seeks pets to shower with love. Have minivan, will travel.
Chris, Lacey and family were great sitters. Our home was probably cleaner than we left it, and our cats were relaxed and happy. They made an extra effort to meet us for an in person walk through in advance. Grateful to have them stay and would happily have them back.

Part time nurse, full time animal lover!
Avery and Daniel were great guests. Pina warmed up to them pretty quickly and they shared plenty of pictures of her enjoying their company. They showed up right on time and we immediately felt comfortable leaving, knowing they would care for our home and Pina like their own. We came home to a clean home and a happy cat. Can’t ask for anything more than that. We’d happily invite them to sit again.

Another great sitter! Abdenour applied to my last minute sitting request, and he delivered. Abdenour was prompt, asked a lot of good questions and didn't hesitate to let me know if he needed anything. The place was spotless when I came home I also appreciated the pet video updates! Thank you Abdenour!

Teacher, organizer, writer, neighbor, friend.
Whitney was an absolute GEM! She was very organized, reliable, and communicative. She took excellent care of my senior kitty and not only left my place spotless clean but also left a couple of thoughtful gifts behind. Will happily have her here again. Thank you so much, Whitney!
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.
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
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.
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
