We were understandably apprehensive about leaving our home and animal in someone else's care but Carolyn and Jeff were absolutely the BEST experience we could've asked for. Our 110 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback, Bodhi, had a few special needs which Carolyn and Jeff handled as well as if he were their own. It's always a little nerve-racking to leave your fur-baby behind (especially when you fall into the "dog crazy" category) and Carolyn and Jeff were amazing at alleviating those fears. We had confirmed their stay three months out and their communication leading up to the visit was phenomenal; we really got to get a great feel of each other during that time. I had invited them to come get settled in the night before, have them over for dinner, and get to know one another and it turned out to be a great dinner party with lovely guests. Even when they pulled up in our driveway I felt that I could already trust them as we had such good communication prior to their arrival. So when we left the following day, it was a relief to know my dog and house were in good hands. While we were on vacation, they sent pictures of Bodhi daily (and sometimes more than once!), with regular updates on his eccentric and goofy behavior. They took him on two walks a day and had no issues feeding him his special raw food diet as well as his midday bones for teeth cleaning. When we got back from the trip the house was in great shape and I could tell my dog was not only relaxed but even missed his temporary guardians! As a very gracious and generous plus, Carolyn and Jeff left us some lovely flowers and a beautiful card. If we ever have a chance to use them again in the future I won't hesitate! We could not have wished for better or more trustworthy people.

Valerie did a great job keeping up with two pets medications, and added extra walks for the dogs. She was timely and considerate and the house was looked great when we got back. I would highly recommend!

We met Jeremy and he was delightful and efficient. The it didn't happen in the end because I had to stay in Canada (our house sale had fallen through) but I would definitely be happy if Jeremy came again.

Karen was enthusiastic and energetic and was a wonderful sitter for Rigby. She left my house absolutely spotless and Rigby was well cared for. She kept in touch while I was away, letting me know about anything important. I’m sure Rigby had a wonderful time with Karen.

Katherine & Leny were awesome with oue two Great Danes. They communicated daily with pictures via text. They followed house/dog rules and routines each day. We returned to a very clean home. Definitely recommend them to sit your fur babies.

This is our second 'sit' with Diane and it was fantastic. Daily communication (including photos of our spoiled pooch) was very much appreciated. Diane took great care of Rocky - and our home. We wouldn't hesitate to have her 'sit' for us again!

Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter

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 😃

Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back

Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!

Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.

Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.

We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. 

Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth.

We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. 

Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.

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.

Dede (Duha) is definitely one of our top house/pet sitters so far! The moment we met I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She is the most loving, caring and responsible sitter one could wish for! She send us regular updates of her daily adventures with Kenzie and Ginger and we could not have felt more at ease. I know for sure that our dog fell deeply in love with her and misses her much. We hope to invite Dede back into our home soon! Five stars all the way!!

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.
