Laura and Eric completely enabled us to leave our furbabies knowing we wouldn't have any worries at all while we were away. They made sure all angles were covered, even if we had forgotten to cover one or two things. We had a challenging situation between the cats at that time, and they were totally professional and caring and provided updates and photos and i think the cats personalities made for an enjoyable experience for them. We came home to fine the house spotless, plants watered etc, but most importantly happy happy cats. Completely reliable! Can't stress this enough. Communication right from the first interview was thoughtful, timely and we really enjoyed talking with them. My only wish was that we could have met them in person. Would love to have them return at any time, so says Maddy, Juno and Laika. I think they loved their proximity to NYC, and took advantage of many of our suggestions. Thank you Eric and Laura, for all you did above and beyond the call of duty. Sue Ellen and Jay

Responsible, semi-retired animal lovers looking for house-sits!
We were away for over 30 days and it was a real blessing to have Pamela and Eric stay in our home and care for our dogs. They settled right in and even fit into our expat community. After meeting them and spending a couple of days acquainting them with our home and the dogs routine, we felt completely at ease leaving our home and pets in their care. They drove us to the airport and picked us up. Pam even had a meal prepared for our return. A lovely couple and I sincerely hope we can have them sit again.

WE ARE THE RIGHT CARETAKERS FOR YOUR HOUSE AND PETS
Silvia and Leo were wonderful sitters! They took loving care of our dear Scout dog and sent us regular updates and photos of our happy pet. They also took exceptional care of our home! They may have left it more clean and tidy than we did before they arrived. We enjoyed the lovely care and note they left for us as well. We would certainly have them return for a sit and highly recommend them to others. Thank you, zeewoi!

oh my gosh! Michelle is an excellent guest and pet friend. My two girls had an adventure out every day. And because of the extreme heat this summer Michelle was always careful and took the girls out in the morning before the exreme tempatures hit. She was also great at continuing our established training to reenforce what we have been working on. I'll ask for Michelle to sit for me again.

Retired, Active, and able to care for your pets.
Once again, Ron did a 5 star pet and house sitting stay for us. Unexpectedly our garage construction became delayed and the most inconvenient part, the framing, landed during Ron's stay. Ron was both gracious and understanding with the construction and the on-going noise it presented. Ron gave our four kitties loving care and took care of all house needs. We returned to happy cats and a clean house. We couldn't have asked for more, thank you Ron!

Semi retired couple ready to travel, mind your home and love your pets!
Great sitters! Second time Lisa has stayed at our place. As with the first time the house was immaculate when we returned and the cat relaxed and well cared for. I very much appreciated the communication. I would definitely recommend Lisa and Jim

We will treat your house and pets as our own.
Liliya, Dimitri and family were friendly, attentive and helpful sitters. They took excellent care of our cat, chinchilla, and garden for the weekend. There could have been a little better planning and communication leading up to the sit (eg, more notice of a late arrival which meant we needed someone else to feed the cat the first night), but there were no issues during or after the visit.

We will love your pets and home as if they are our own!
Laura and Jake were the best! They took very good care of our dogs and we appreciate their attention to their needs. Also they watered our plants and the house was clean when we returned. They cleaned the bathroom, towels and bed linens and the bed was made. We were grateful for their care!

Active Sitter
One question we had: Will our pets want us back when we return?? Olivia was tremendous. When our original sitter had to tend to her sick mother, Olivia stepped in and was read to help. She kept communicating us with minor problems and solved them all like a champ (the fire alarms went off for no reason - she handled it.). She has our highest recommendation!
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
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.
The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
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.
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
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.
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
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.
