Trustworthy and loving family looking to care for what's most precious to you
The only down side about having George and Larissa and their wonderful children stay in your home and look after your beloved pets is that you are on holiday and don't get to spend time with them! They are AMAZING! From the minute they arrived (we had a half hour cross over) we felt completely confident and relaxed about leaving. We received daily photos and updates on our lively labrador, careful and considerate questions about taking care of our home (all houses have their quirks and its difficult to leave precise instructions about everything), stories and anecdotes about our dog and what she was doing and how she was interacting with the children (I believe there were tears when they left); and in addition to regular Trusted Houseitting duties the family also looked after our Airbnb and interacted with our guests and looked after them perfectly - all of our guests left 5* reviews and all mentioned Larissa and George as their 'wonderful hosts'. When we got home everything was exactly as we left it plus some extra goodies had been left for us to help us settled in after a long flight. This is a family who are stepping out into the world and doing 'life' in what many would consider a non-conventional way - but that means they are very experienced travellers, quick to hit the ground running when they arrive and 100% adorable. Don't hesitate - say yes!

Working remote, I enjoy opportunities for new scenery & meeting furry friends
It was easy to have Melinda stay with Nalah while I was out of cell service for a few days. When I came home, I was excited to see that she had found Nalah's cat tunnel (one of her favorite toys), so I know Nalah got plenty of attention and care. Would be happy to have Melinda back again.

Terri and her sons were absolutely wonderful! My pets were happy and healthy and I came home to my apartment looking even better than I had left it. Would highly recommend having Terri look after your pets!

We met Robert and Jolene for the first time when they came to housesit and care for our dog, Gator. Upon meeting them, they absorbed the information we were sharing with them and were relaxed and self-assured. Throughout our vacation, we received many photos and texts about Gator. When we returned home Gator looked very well cared for and content and the house was meticulously clean. Our pond was in great shape and our koi looked very happy - well, as happy as a fish can look! We hope that Jolene and Robert will come back in the future. We feel like we've made new friends.

Animals and Adventures
Jessica and her companion looked after Conni, my cocker spaniel, for five days. From the moment of first making contact to the end of the sit, Jessica communicated in a clear and timely way. On arrival she was keen to know all of Conni's routines and on my return Conni was clearly very happy and settled, which is exactly what I wanted to return to. I would be very happy to recommend her to others.

Cat Purrs & Dog Kisses, WarmFurry Cuddles, These are a Few of my Favorite Things
Audrey was a wonderful choice to care for our animals, and we were lucky to have her! She was caring and organized and we came home to happy, relaxed pets and a clean house! At the beginning of the sit, Audrey arrived early so we could go through feeding routines for horses before our departure. We had a chance to meet her, and she is a confident, attentive person who who made us instantly comfortable. When we hit some road bumps with a plumbing project in our horse barn while we were away, she went above and beyond to stay in touch with us, help deal with the issues and oversee the project to its finish. Audrey is an amazing choice for any home owner and pet parent who wants to leave their pets in capable hands!

Retired and ready to travel and care for your pets and home as if it's our own.
Sunshine loves Kelly and Alan! This is the second time Kelly and Alan have taken care of Sunshine. They are so sweet. The communication before, during and after their sit was great. They sent updates and pictures. They met with our neighbor who they will be petsitting for and Sunshine didn't leave their side. It was so nice not to worry how my pup was doing during my vacation and knowing they were taking care of her, the house and everything was ok. I feel so lucky to have met them (I was referred by good friends who they sat for their pup too) and hope it works out that they can come back again. Sunshine really loved them and wasn't anxious when I got home. The house also was spotless. Thank you Kelly and Alan! See you in October when you watch Winston. Keep in touch if you ever want to come back to our home too. Hopefully we can walk when you are here in a couple months! Bobbi and Sunshine

Give me all the creatures!!
Jessica and Orlando did a good job taking care of our house and pets while we were away. Jessica was communicative and reliable. They did a great job cleaning up the house - I really appreciated coming home to a freshly made bed!

Teacher, organizer, writer, neighbor, friend.
Whitney was an absolute GEM! She was very organized, reliable, and communicative. She took excellent care of my senior kitty and not only left my place spotless clean but also left a couple of thoughtful gifts behind. Will happily have her here again. Thank you so much, Whitney!

Clayton and Lora have a passion for history, culture, people & animals.
We had absolutely no concerns at all about the dogs or the ducks whilst we were away, as soon as I met the family I knew they were in good hands! Clayton and Lora both kept me updated throughout the two weeks and the whole family was up early to accommodate our very early return. Thank you for loving our home, dogs and ducks as we do allowing us to relax on our holiday.
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.
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 😃
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
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.
Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem! They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice! Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here. She let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the animals. The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home! Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
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.
You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!
