Sara and her friend John (part of the time) did great job with our dogs and took good care of them, taking them on long walks and giving them love and attention. Sara is very kind and lovely, reliable and trustworthy. The communication with her was smooth form the beginning and during the sit. The dogs loved her, I could really tell when we arrived home and the dogs waited in front of the bedroom she stayed before she woke up. We got a little bit disappointed arriving home and the house has´t be cleaned. We and the dogs were super happy with Sara and highly recommend her!

Kittia was an excellent sitter! We connected virtually in advance of her stay and she asked thoughtful questions. Additionally, we communicated throughout her stay when questions arose, or when she’d send along photos of our two cats. When we came home our house was tidy, mail/packages stacked, and the cats were happy. We’d certainly recommend Kittia for all stays and would be delighted to welcome her back to our home in Asheville, NC.

Ken and Linda are wonderful people. Punctual and great communicators. Roka loves them. This is our 2nd sit with them, and hopefully, it won't be our last.

Cassidy and Chris are a lovely couple and were great to communicate with. We had the pleasure of meeting them beforehand and our cats took to them easily. They looked after our fur babies for just over two weeks and we returned to a clean home and relaxed kitties 😊 Would definitely recommend Chris and Cassidy!

Dee was a wonderful sitter. We have relied on Dee and Herman before and trusted them again for a third sit. They are remarkably reliable, great communicators, and left the house amazingly clean. I know we will continue to inform them of potential additional sits, and to use them regularly when we travel!

We are very happy to highly recommend Dawn and Mike for your house/pet sitting needs. We were blessed to find, on zeewoi, the experience we needed in Dawn and Mike. They were undaunted in accepting the responsibility of caring for 2 German Shepherds, 3 cats, 2 horses and 18 hens/2 roosters on 16 acres, and, a large house which was spotless when we returned! We would love to have them back and cannot recommend them highly enough Thank you Dawn & Mike!

Attentive. Dependable. Cat whisperer. I was away for over 1 week—so this was going to take some searching, for what I believed my boys needed. I have a senior cat that needed a little more attention. I met our sitters earlier via FB to discuss needs and logistics. And Dexter, Petey, and I met them before I left. . .they were a perfect fit for my boys from the start. After a few days, my cats were acting as though I’d never left. What a relief. I knew from the frequent communication—detailed texts, pictures, they were in great hands—doing what they do best—kicking back and enjoying the attention they were receiving as though it was me. By the end of their stay, I thought my cats were going to crawl in their bags and hitch a ride. . .if I didn’t get home soon!! I highly recommend these cat whisperers. If they returned to the area, we would gladly welcome them back for another stay.

Garrett and Giovanna were absolute gems as house sitters. They sent many pictures and updates of my animals who were obviously healthy and happy the entire time. They also left the house immaculate. I'm so grateful for their care of our place and our loved ones.

We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria!  She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules.  You can tell she truly is a dog lover.  Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care.  We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here.  I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!

Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. 
We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. 
Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. 
Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. 
We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. 
Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!

Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter.  She  went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love.  And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also.  I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter.  She is a very sweet lady.  I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). 
And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them.
Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him.

He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here.

So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation.

Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

Truly The Best House sitters Ever!!! Shannon, Travis and their son were absolutely terrific. I’m so lucky to have had the genuine pleasure of meeting them. Very warm, generous, open and loving people. My dog Wolfie usually barks at men who come in the house and I was a little worried about how he would be with Travis, but I had nothing to fear because within seriously 1 minute from Travis walking in the door, Wolfie was giving him kisses on the lips! I was so happy to receive their updates and photos and videos of my pets while I was away. They really went above and beyond taking terrific care of my many, many furry and feathered friends. When I got home, the place was sparkling clean, all linens laundered and beds made and they even left me sweet little surprises. I would welcome The Exums back with open arms anytime and highly recommend them.

The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

Charlie was again an outstanding sitter for us whilst we were away at a wedding. This is the second time having Charlie and although we have not met face to face we completely trust her with our home and of course our cat, Nala. Charlie left the house spotless which is amazing to come home to after a long day of travelling. She is reliable, good at communicating and trustworthy and we would not hesitate to recommend her enough. Thanks again Charlie, we hope you come back again and there might even be a dog next time😁

Veronica House sat for us for a month.  She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat.

Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals.  They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them.

When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe,  she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity.  She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks.  This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy.

A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in.
 
Our cat was so content and well-groomed​ upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention,  too.

Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day.

I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home.

We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.
