Trustworthy, dependable, and semi-retired traveling couple who loves pets!
Joi and Glen were the best house sitters imaginable. They took excellent care of my pets and home, were communicative during the stay and even offered to stay longer if needed. They left the home in spotless condition as well. I feel very grateful to them and hope they can come again.

Well-traveled, fit & fun-loving couple with positive attitudes. We love walking!
Did a really great job watching my two pups while I am away for duty. Communication was on point and always kept me in the loop with updates and pictures. Highly recommended! Great job!

This was my first time trying out the service and Sarah and Chris totally exceeded expectations! Communication was clear, timely, and accurate. The timing handoff of keys, arrival and departure also proceeded without a hitch. Our elder dog Copper totally embraced them as dog sitters and our home was well cared for while we were away. In fact, it was probably cleaner than how we left it! Highly recommend

I've had the pleasure of having Adriana as our pet sitter for our two older chihuahuas a few times and she's the best sitter we could ask for! So caring, communicative, responsible, and goes above and beyond to make our girls feel safe, loved and cared for. Having had an older dog herself, she knows how to handle their unique needs and challenges with love, compassion and a bit of humor. She is the best sitter we have had and look forward to having her here again soon.

Marrie and Ehsan stayed at our home and cared for our cat, Bruce, while we and the dogs went camping. She was incredible! She was easy to get in touch with before the trip, super organized, very clear with communication and making sure our needs and expectations were met during her stay. They took great care of Bruce and our home. Bruce brought them a gift (a rabbit he hunted), showing he liked them a lot and wanted to make sure they were eating! When we came home, the house was spotless - it is so nice coming home to a clean space. I highly recommend Marrie, and if it works out in the future, I would absolutely have her stay here again.

I care for all pets as if they were my own.
Barbie was a fantastic house and dog sitter for us! She sent us a few photos of our dog throughout the trip, communicated effectively, replaced things she used, and even threw the linens in the wash for us before we came back. Super conscientious and we hope to have her sit for us again soon!

Pet-love and greenery welcome
Lynne answered a last minute posting to stay at our house for a long weekend. She left the house just as we left it and the kitties were happy when we got home! I actually accidentally posted that we would be away one more day than expected and she was very understanding when I let her know we would be home sooner than expected. I would have liked to have gotten prompter responses to my text messages checking-in to make sure everything was ok, but all in all everything went smoothly and we were appreciative that Lynne was able to stay and take good care of the kitties!

Experienced House and Pet Sitter and Animal Lover Ready to Serve!
Kelley provides excellent pet care. She has been very patient with my cat who can't decide whether she wants to be in or out and my other cat who hides the whole time. Kelley responded to communication quickly and left my house tidy and clean. Kelley will be my go-to should she be available.

Olivia and Tylar were absolutely amazing during the entire sit (which was nearly 2.5 weeks). I received regular updates and wonderful photos from Olivia. They took extra care of my senior dog who requires some extra attention and clean-up and never seemed put-out at all. by this extra work. I cannot recommend their help enough!
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
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!
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.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
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.
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
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!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
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 :)
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.
