Debra
Bayard, Delaware
Single retired animal lover.
Debra was kind, communicative, and attentive to Tommy & Ashes. Super grateful for her willingness to be their person and to tend to my home & plants in my absence. Definitely recommend!
Victoria
Bayard, Delaware
Frequent traveler, flexible schedule, sharing all the love with your animals!
This was our first time using Zeewoi and Victoria may have ruined it for us because now we only want her! She was above and beyond amazing. Most importantly, she took such great care of our dog. Our dog loved her so much that she would sleep with her! Our extensive collection of house plants all thrived, and the house was spotless. Victoria exceeded our expectations and we hope to have her back soon!
Valerie
Bayard, Delaware
This adventure just gets better and better!
We had Valerie back to watch Bolt and look after the house, and, per usual, she was fantastic! Great communication, super tidy, and really keeps Bolt calm. They seem to have a blast together. She's incredibly self sufficient, but communicative, thoughtful, and transparent. Would have her back anytime she's willing! Bolt would too ;)
Dorothy
Bayard, Delaware
Professional Couple, retired, long time homeowners and lifelong pet owners.
Dorothy & Paul house and pet sat for us once before, but that was when we were in a rental house short-term. So, our home was new to them, and there are a lot of features to learn. We had one day overlapping before our vacation and they quickly learned about the idiosyncrasies of our home. They knew our pets and the pets clearly remembered them. Todd was very excited to greet them with a welcoming howl or two, and the cats both wanted to sit on laps and get petted at the same time. It was clear that the cats had been brushed regularly while we were away. Dorothy and Paul took Todd everywhere around the Cape, even when the weather wasn't the greatest for walking. He clearly had a fantastic week under their care. Similarly, the cats, Buddy and Holly, were very happy and relaxed with Dorothy and Paul in their home. And I received photos to see how happy they all were. Dorothy and Paul had to leave before we got home, but we were in regular communication to make sure the transition went smoothly and did not disturb the pets. They did a fabulous job in cleaning the house and many things were cleaner than we had left it for them. We would definitely not hesitate to have Dorothy and Paul house and pet sit for us again. They are a wonderful couple and very caring with our pets and our home.
Rob
Bayard, Delaware
I'm a professional videographer, so I can take quality portraits of your pet.
We had the opportunity to spend a couple of days with Rob prior to his sit. He was easy and comfortable. He was great with the pets, so we left knowing that they were in good hands. He communicated frequently with fun pictures and took great care of the house and pets. He took the puppy to a play group every morning and our neighbors thought he was doing a great job. We would recommend him highly.
Donna
Bayard, Delaware
Responsible, active, retired teacher. Loves fur babies and visiting new places.
Donna was an extremely thoughtful, kind, caring and communicative sitter. My pups adored her as do I. She was super reliable, responsible and self-sufficient. Donna made sure I was kept up to date on my boys and sent photos regularly. It was if my dogs barely knew I was traveling. She is super clean (I had to tell her to stop cleaning :-) and does everything you ask (even watered my lawn in the hot FL sun). I consider Donna a friend now as she loves dogs like I do and cared for Finn and Farley as if they were her own. I got the opportunity to share some time with her and she is an absolute joy with a beautiful heart. I cannot recommend Donna enough for your zeewoi sit.
Olivia
Bayard, Delaware
Recent College Grads - One with Veterinary Experience & the other an Eagle Scout
Olivia and Joe are a delightful couple traveling the country between sits during a year before graduate school. They kept us well informed on our pets during their stays and both cats got plenty of attention. The house was immaculate on our return. We would definitely have them sit for us in the future if they could fit us into their busy schedules.
Terry
Bayard, Delaware
A trusted and friendly presence.
Terry was very conscientious and dependable sitter. He spent a great deal of time playing with and taking care of our dog. He genuinely cared about making him happy and our dog responded by following him around. He was very accommodating when our plans changed during the sit and left the house in good order. He had told us he had no experience with dogs and, unfortunately, our dominant German Shepherd sensed that and took advantage. No harm was done but Terry wasn't able to stick to our usual routine. Nonetheless I would not hesitate to recommend him to sit for cats or smaller, less assertive dogs.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Tamar
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Jeff
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
Jana
Eliza was my first sitter after signing up on zeewoi. I’m Soooo happy to have had her in my home watching over my dogs. They were very well taken care of and she did everything I asked her to do with the dogs meals and medication. Plus she took excellent care of my home and plants. If you are lucky enough to get Eliza to stay at your home, you will be so glad it was she who took care of things! Very happy 😃
Alicia
I don’t think we could’ve picked a better sitter than Joe! This was our first time using this website/app, and I can only hope that all of our future sitters will be amazing as he was! He was kind, respectful, attentive, extremely clean, (seriously I think our house was cleaner than when we left for vacation), and took such amazing care of our two dogs! He arrived early on the day of our departure so he could meet our dogs and get a detailed run down of their routine. Both of our dogs warmed up to him immediately! :) One of our pups sometimes has the tendency to be reactive towards other dogs on leash. He handled him so effortlessly and with such compassion, it really put any worries I might’ve had aside. While we were away he sent little updates and pictures of the adventures they went on: farmers markets, car rides, long walks, and lots of pets and cuddles. After he left both of our dogs sat out side his room and just looked so sad that their new friend Joe had gone away. I honestly can’t recommend Joe enough! If you are looking for someone, your search should end here!
Sally & Andy
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.

Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
Linda
Christina is the best house and pet sitter that we have ever had. She leaves the house immaculate. She is independent, reliable, and totally professional. Communication is excellent. In terms of pet care, Christina is special. I think that she is a dog whisperer. Bridie, our crazy Wheaten, adores her and is sad when she leaves.
Tania
Delphine was amazing. All 3 of our fur babies took an instant liking to her, which is very unusual of them. We right away knew both our cats and our dog would be happy with her. We came back to relaxed and happy pets and a clean house. We think we found our ‘go to’ house sitter with Delphine. We would love to have her over again.
Kelly
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.
