Tamara & Chris, experienced, mature, responsible, loving pet and home care.
Christian and Tamara were great sitters. They were good communicators, took great care of our pets, and left the house very clean! I would not hesitate to have them back.

Krista and Jerry were amazing guests. They were very communicative and sent lots of photos and videos. We came home to a spotless house and a happy puppy. They even gave us some good pointers on training. I hope they will come back again some time .

This was our second time having Jennifer and Richard here and once again everything was great. Paige was happy upon my return and my home was neat and clean as I left it. So happy to have them back again! Thanks again to Jennifer for the daily updates!

Branden was very prompt, flexible when my dates changed, and even reached back out when I asked about additional days that were initially unavailable for him, but they canceled and ended up being able to extend my dates. My cat Cleveland seemed happy when I got home, and my place was very clean. Thanks Branden! Lovely to have you.

California House Sitter
Kirsten was amazing, from our first interactions with her to the day she left. We were in contact with her several times while we were away and enjoyed all the pictures and updates with the dogs and the house. Kirsten went over and beyond with watering our plants in the front and back yards. We have a drip system but it was extremely hot while she was here and all the plants looked great. The inside of the house looked amazing when we got home. Very clean, bed made and everything fresh and wiped down. That was really nice since we didn’t get home until after 10 pm. Kirsten was great with the dogs and contacted us immediately with any questions and concerns about them. We really appreciate everything she did while staying here. We highly recommend Kirsten and hope to have her stay here again in the future.

Reliable, competent and cheerful. Ready to care for your home and critters!
Isabella was very happy with Betsy We could tell by their interactions after we returned as she continued to follow Betsy's "commands" with us there. Betsy was completely reliable and we would trust her to sit for us again. She made sure everything was in order before she left and even made dinner for us on our evening return!

Kira was a wonderful house and pet sitter. She stayed in touch regularly, took great care of my cat, collected mail & watered plants. She left my house neat and clean. I would definitely recommend her and hope she can sit for me again.

Whom you can expect: A happy, healthy Grandma, animal lover and very experienced
Jennifer has cat sitted for me multiple times over the last two years, She is caring and professional and always takes care of other things for me such as bringing in the mail, watering plants and unexpected problems such as changing a battery in remote or fixing the flushing mechanism in the toilet tank. She is reliable and I appreciate knowing she is with my kitties and caring for them, so I don't feel anxious when I am away.
Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
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!
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
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!!:)
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!
