Eileen and Michael are fantastic sitters! They did a magnificent job caring for our two little Shitzus. They were very responsive and great to work with. They have a special touch with the dogs, took them on long walks, countless belly rubs, had our pups happy and sleeping well. We received a bunch of adorable pictures during their visit too. Really gave us peace of mind during our trip. Eileen and Michael have our highest recommendation! We will definitely ask Eileen and Michael to come back! Dina & Sean

Carol and Dennis were very friendly and had great communication. This was our first sitting and we were nervous about not having our home ready or having issues with Gunner but with Carols daily/multiple times a day text updates and pictures of Gunner, it was very relaxing for us. Unfortunately, our pup was very energetic and mouthy during their arrival ... So we will be looking for new ways to introduce him to future sitters. He is a 85lb puppy that still doesn't know his size and so that was worrisome for us with them as an older couple. However, Gunner enjoyed the time with them and they also enjoyed his goofy personality!

Boy, did I gey lucky with Rachelle and Lou! I am so happy with their excellent care of our home and our pets. They both went above and beyond. Lou performed a few repairs. They organized my cupboards, creating order out of chaos. They tidied up and left our home cleaner than when they arrived. Our home sparkled. And we were treated to home made chocolate chip muffins. Written communication and pictures were excellent. Our pets, Poshie and Leo, were well fed, loved up and contented. Did they miss us? I doubt it. Rachelle's stated goal was to get my skittish and grumpy cat, Leo, in her lap . It worked, even if it was only for a minute for a start. If they were here longer, he would have made himself at home in her lap. Poshie overcame her skepticism of stangers in the house and cuddled up to Rachelle and Lou. I sincerely hope to have them back for future pet sits. Any time!

Jennah was simply amazing. The dream cat sitter. She stayed in touch with us regularly, sending us updates and photos to keep us connected to our kitty (Annie). We could tell by the photos Annie was super comfortable and quickly connected with Jennah. And she was thoughtful and proactive when needs arose with care or with our home. She handled our Annie's special food care and medical needs as well. I hope Jennah is always available when we leave town, and definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, thoughtful sitter. Thank you Jennah!!!

New to the zeewoi concept, we are very happy with how this sit went. We planned our trip, and this sit, many months ago. Seemed so long ago that we hoped our sitter hadn't forgotten us! It was also a long trip, almost two weeks long. Tommy arrived on schedule and we had a wonderful meet and greet. She was at ease with our animals (two cats and a dog) and immediatley fit in. We left feeling confident our critters and home would be well taken care of. Tommy sent us daily texts, pictures and videos. When we arrived home at the end of our travels, we found the house very neat and clean, and some wonderful treats for us to enjoy. It was obvious that Dot, Andy and Cooper were attached to Tommy and were sad to see her leave. Tommy is a world class sitter and we would love to have her back again!

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.

I've always been lucky with my sitters through zeewoi, and this time was no exception. George, Larissa and their four lovely children were the absolute perfection in house guests and I cannot praise this wonderful family too highly. 

They did all the usual things you'd expect, gave my beautiful girls all the love and care I could wish, walked them at least once every day despite the best the British weather could throw at them, and sent me regular updates and photos so I could see how much love they were getting. 

They also left the house cleaner and tidier than I think I've ever seen it! I'm a bit worried that all they did for the week was walk and play with the dogs and then clean the house - I'm beyond grateful, the place looks amazing!

They really are the very nicest people too, George has a hilarious sense of humour (thanks for the funny texts George!) and Larissa is calm, kind and an inspiration as a mother. 

I really can't wait to have them back to look after the girls again in the summer and wish the whole family a wonderful trip until then. 

If they come and house sit for you then you are in for a real treat!

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💖🎉

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!

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!

Susan and Jim were amazing sitters for my 2 boys whilst I went to Portugal to play golf. Communication we had prior to the sit was excellent, and we were able to discuss the dogs in detail. They arrived the day before I was due to leave so we were able to have a good handover.

They really looked after the dogs well, and my house was immaculate when I returned. I can't recommend them highly enough, just wished they lived in the UK so I could use them on a regular basis. Thank you Susan and Jim xx

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.

Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!

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😁

Alia is awesome and we have used her several times.  She is a 5 star rated sitter every time.  The dogs are happy and the house is perfect when we get home.  She even cooked dinner for our arrival home because we came home late.  Highly recommend Alia!!
