Irene and Stefan were an amazing pet-sitting couple. They were open, friendly and conscientious, and they took the time to understand Jackie's needs. We had a nice dinner together the night before our departure and we could tell they truly loved cats. Irene even brought a toy mouse with catnip as a present for Jackie! Throughout our time away, Irene sent daily updates with photos and videos of Jackie. When we got back, the house was spotless and Jackie was happy and content. Thank you, Irene and Stefan! We would love to have you take care of Jackie again soon.

Raphael was a fantastic sitter. He was very easy to arrange the sit with, and very organised sending us his arrival and departure times well in advance. He was great company for our cat Nim, and sent us nice photos of her playing with him while we were away. He also kept the house really tidy and even kindly put the laundry on when he left. We’d definitely be happy to ask him to sit again sometime.

It was a pleasure to have Eleanor sit for Freddie again. Freddie absolutely adores Eleanor & how she cares for him. I never have any worries when Eleanor is sitting for Freddie as she is always in contact & this time as she knew I would be busy with my friends wedding still sent me updates & told me not to worry about replying. Knowing I had those updates sat there to look at when I wasn’t so busy was so nice 🥰 Eleanor always leaves my apartment spotless for when I arrive home. I think I’ve said it before that I’m sure it’s cleaner than when I leave it!!! As always we highly recommend Eleanor to house / pet sit. She really is a huge animal lover & treats your home as if it were her own. Thank you Eleanor & see you soon Vicki & Freddie 🐾

We had a lot of very useful and practical contact with Eimear and Rory both before and during their stay here. As pet parents who had never left their cats for four years, we were very nervous about how Nexy and Preston would react but they were fine. Lots of messages with photos came our way to reassure us. Now that Eimear and Rory have gone, our young cat, Preston, has been looking for them, I’m sure. So I think we can definitely say that they would be welcome back here again. Thank you Eimear and Rory.

This was our first experience of using zeewoi and we hit the jackpot first time! Noelle is kind, open-hearted and easy-going, in fact everything we could have wished for. She communicated very well, both before and during the house-sit, with regular (but not too many) updates and videos so we knew they were all getting on well and our cats were happy. Noelle even managed to win over our shy male cat so she definitely has a natural affinity with felines. The house and garden were well looked after and, as Noelle stayed another night after our return, she kindly made us a delicious supper. We feel very fortunate to have met her and had such a positive first experience with zeewoi. We have no hesitation in recommending Noelle highly and would certainly ask her to sit for us in the future if our plans coincide.

Bei did an exceptional job housesitting for me. We were able to connect before her arrival and go over any last second questions. Excellent communication throughout the entire time as she sent me many photos and videos of the Funk man. It is clear she loves animals. Came home to a clean place and happy cat, would invite her back to housesit anytime!

My husband, Sugar, and I were so thrilled with Kay’s sit. She took excellent care of Sugar (who isn’t always the most straightforward dog!), sent us plenty of photos/videos, and communicated very well with us before & during the sit. Additionally, she took excellent care of our apartment. We came home to a very clean flat with cookies left out, cleaning supplies stocked, and a very happy dog. We can’t thank or recommend Kay enough. We feel lucky to have had a sitter like her!

Vaso was an excellent sitter for Freida and Floki. Before the sit, there was plenty of communication regarding travel plans and pet care. While Floki is outgoing, Freida is a little shy. Freida immediately warmed up, demanding pets and cuddles. Freida is getting old and required medication during the sit, along with getting weighed daily. Vaso had no problem giving Freida her medication. I received daily updates and videos. My apartment was clean and tidy when I returned. I highly recommend Vaso to pet sit, would gladly have again. 10 Stars! 😊

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!

Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!

We’re so grateful for the love and care Vanessa gave our two dogs while we were traveling for a weekend. During our trip, she sent us pictures and our dogs always looked happy and at ease. Even during a thunderstorm she cared for our scared older dog who unfortunately had a little accident, and she cleaned up with no complaint. We didn’t have to worry at all which let us truly enjoy our weekend away knowing our dogs were in the best hands!

Vanessa was clean and tidy. We returned home to a neat house and happy pups! She even did the laundry without us asking.

We would highly recommend Vanessa as a sitter for anyone. Thank you so much!!

Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉

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

Emily  and  Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one.  We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc.  I can't recommend them highly enough!

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!

Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used.  My husky LOVES her.  Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly.  She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia.  She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. 
Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals.  My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. 
Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! 
Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.
