Small, Trustworthy Family Looking To House Sit
Candy came to take care of our pups with her two kids. They were absolutely amazing! The dogs were extremely well cared for and the house was in fantastic condition when we got back. We couldn’t have asked for a better sit. We would have them back in a heartbeat. Thank you, Candy!

Alexis was great! She sent pictures of our critters frequently, and seemed to get along well with them. She was very responsive and our neighbors said she was lovely. Our house was perfect when we returned. An excellent housesitter!

Caring, responsible, and happy to look after your home and pets.
Let me start by saying that I have never approved a zeewoi with children to petsit and was concerned about doing so. After a FaceTime chat with Kemi I decided to give it a chance. As a veterinarian and despite having teenagers, I was concerned about having small children in my non child proofed home with animals they do not know. The first day seemed difficult for Kemi and family as they adjusted to my dogs, who are excellent with children, but I do not think they were accustomed to a young, large breed dog. They seemed concerned, confused and critical of normal behaviors for a Golden Retriever… like trying to eat the other dogs food. When we spoke one Facetime I let Kemi know my Cavalier sleeps in bed with me, but the night of her arrival she made it clear that would not be possible for her as she can not sleep with an animal and wanted to know the alternative. I gave her permission to have him sleep in his crate, which he isn’t used to and was disappointing. Over the 10 days they were with the dogs, they gradually became more comfortable with them and their routine. Kemi is extremely meticulous about following the welcome letter exactly and had many questions about that. There were some strange things though - like being sent photos of my small dog’s poop on my floor… when I asked if they left him in his crate (as he always should be when not home) I was told her child forgot to latch the crate door so he was free in the house (something he is never allowed) and he also was not given the opportunity to poop outside (as it was communicated he always must after eating) before leaving him. I also repeatedly asked for him not to be walked on a leash outside (she sent photos of her children with him outside on a leash) because he is trained on the invisible fence, but Kemi was too nervous to do that. They let my large dog out without a leash with the invisible fence though…. We came home to find our home just as clean as we left it - Kemi even removed and laundered the bedding before leaving our home. They were also really good about picking up the poop in the yard, which was nice and were very respectful about my home and belongings.

Animal Lovers with Experience to Care for Wide Variety of Pets
Tonja & Keith were our first sitters using this service in our home. To say they did a great job would be a disservice...they were BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL! My husband and I are so grateful for their attention to detail, updates, cleanliness of our home (truly spotless when we arrived home), going ABOVE & BEYOND what we expected and asked for, and lastly, truly their kindness and treating our home and pup like their own. They truly feel like new friends in our lives & we hope to host them again. Thank you Tonja & Keith for everything you did while we were away and giving us such peace of mind & confidence with who was in our home & how you loved our pup with everything we asked of them (which was a lot for our big boy!). Beyond 5 stars!!

Ann was absolutely incredible! She cared for Kane and our home so beautifully and treated it like it was her own. She sent me pictures of Kane at least once a day and even took him on some adventures. She is fantastic and we are truly grateful to her for everything!

The Demette Couple
Amber & Elijah were great sitters! Came home to a clean house and a happy kitty. Thank you both for your considerate care. I would absolutely have them again.
I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day. I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.
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!
Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had. She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs. We were very happy they accepted. A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned. So, we posted more dates on zeewoi. To our happy surprise, Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted. This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs. We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits. They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting. D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals. This is most important for my wife and I. We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals. Communication was excellent. The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us. We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos. Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us. D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations. Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them. Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare. We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away. The dogs definitely love being around D&J. Homecare: We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned. It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better! D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden. It is very big and takes hours to mow. So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. Our dogs are so very important to us. When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world. We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us. They are fantastic! Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason! -Allen and Izabela
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
To this list of attributes I would add flexible, capable, sensitive, extremely good with the dogs even if one of mine is sometimes a little ornery, and just a wonderful person all around. Because of constantly changing circumstances due to a move and coronavirus, my dogs ended up spending not two weeks but a whole month with John and they were so comfortable and happy. John helped them in so many ways and coordinated shipping them overseas, he went above and beyond the wildest stretches of what a house sitter entails and did it with a smile and a laugh and reassurances that all would be well. And indeed he was absolutely right - the dogs arrived so well cared for that all my fears of them being traumatized went out the window. John’s flexibility, and his kindness as well as his impeccable maintenance of my house in my absence all make me recommend him an absolute 10 out of 10. Thank you John for all your help this summer!! Lisa
You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!
