Your cats will love me ♥
David has excellent reviews for a reason! He is a true cat lover and immediately won over our suspicious clan. Looking after 12 cats requires time, patience and organization, and David excelled at all these things. The communication before the sit was excellent. He asked lots of questions and made sure he understood the routines and expectations. During the sit he sent lots of photos and videos, which was much appreciated. He also managed some unexpected issues, like getting a prescription for one of the cats and giving her pills every day. He watered the plants regularly and took care of the house. Due to unexpected changes in work circumstances, my husband and I returned home earlier than planned. David was flexible and understanding as we worked this out, and made a challenging couple of weeks much smoother than they might have been. Overall, having David as a sitter was a great experience. Highly recommended!

Friendly and tidy family who will care for your pets and home as you would
I was so thankful to find Roger, Svitlana and Ryan through zeewoi. With a fairly new adopted dog, it was hard to feel comfortable going away on vacation. They were so kind to keep us updated on our how our dogs were doing during our trip, followed everything on our welcome sheet, and took immaculate care of our house. I would highly recommend this wonderful family!

Married Couple, Responsible pet lovers , reliable, Non-smoking and very tidy
Juan and Ana did a great job with the cats. I got videos and photos every now and then and they always made sure that we stay in contact. The cats seemed chilled, when I came back from my travels and the house was super clean. I can highly recommend both of them❤️

Trustable Swedish couple with animal experience!
Kristina and Roger who were housesitters with us in 2022 retuned and did two sets of dates in September. They are wonderful, flexible housesitters. Lola loves them, they have developed a strong bond. The house and swimming pool were in better shape when we returned than when we departed. We hope they will be interested in returning again in the future.

Looking forward to being in the company of your furry ones
Mariana did a great job looking after my dog Josephine and I could trust she was left in good hands. Josephine was very happy when I returned but was very relaxed indicating she had a nice time with Mariana. My place was clean and Mariana communicated very well before, during, and after she left the sit. I really appreciate Mariana staying with Josephine and would welcome her back any time!

Pet sitting family of three
It was an absolute pleasure having Patrick and his daughter come sit for my dog and cat. They were in the area and able to come visit first and both Cora (dog!) and I warmed to them both instantly. All our communication was speedy and efficient and I felt extremely reassured that both Cora and Tom (cat) were in excellent hands. Patrick took Cora out and about with him which was fab as well as having local walks and chill time at home. It sounds like Tom had plenty of attention too from Z, which he may or may not have wanted! I would definitely have them back to sit again if they ever needed to be in the area.

Loving pet parent and sitter
Gabriel was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a more patient and caring person to take care of our babies. From the beginning, he was very communicative. When he arrived, he took interest in knowing everything related to the kittens. He was always paying attention to our explanations about the cats, he asked for tips on how to play with them and the most important, he respected their boundaries and their space. One of my cats is really reserved, but she liked Gabriel and even allow him to pet her. The house was super clean when we arrived and our cats were super relaxed. Thank you very much, Gabriel!

Experience worry-free travels while we shower your furry friends with love!
Fátima and Miguel were amazing pet sitters to Gato, our special cat. They cared for him and fed him well and when we returned he had a glossy coat and was very happy. They looked after the apartment well and left it in meticulous condition and also washed the sheets and towels before leaving. Soft spoken and gentle people we would invite them back anytime. Highly recommended for trustworthiness, cleanliness, respectfulness and care.

Responsible and Experienced Housesitters
Vayola and JD were a blessing. They took care of our home like it was their own. Communication was out standing and they worked to keep up our home inside and out. We would welcome them back anytime.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
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 🙂
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests. Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
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!
