This was Barbara's second time sitting with our cats. Just like the previous time, she was excellent with her communication and daily updates with photos. Both Figaro and Blackie love her. She has been very reliable with other house chores too, like watering the plants. Thank you Barbara for all your help.

Alexandra was absolutely amazing!! Easily one of our best petsitter experiences. Every morning without fail I would wake up to creative and high-quality pics of our babies which helped reassure us that they were doing well ! She was always keeping us updated on them and she even helped look after a street cat that lives in our area (bonus points!). When we returned the home was spotless and the cats were happy and content. Will definitely try to book Alexandra again in the future and you should too !

Kelly has been the most wonderful carer for Peaches and Dippy! We couldn't have asked for a more reliable, attentive and friendly person to stay and bond with our kitties. She spoiled them with brushing, cuddles and even vacuuming Peaches (which he loves) and her communication with us was wonderful before and during the sit; sending videos, photos and frequent updates about the cats. Our house was sparkling when we returned and she even left thank you treats! Thank YOU, Kelly! We hope you will return. Peaches and Dippy miss you already. 💕

Ayelet's communication was fantastic right through from applying for our house sit, to arrival, and the whole period we were away. She sent us updates and photos of what her and Bear were doing daily, and our dog, Bear absolutely loved her. She took fantastic care of our dog, and home, and we wouldn't hesitate to whole heartedly recommend her. Ayelet is a lovely warm person, and we are really happy to have met her.

Ana and Álvaro are very reliable sitters and lovely people. We felt we could trust them immediately, our cat loved them and was pampered like he’s used to from us. We had a peaceful vacation knowing they were taking good care of him. They regularly supplied little updates and pictures and communication was very pleasant. They took optimal care of our yard with vegetable beds and greenhouse and left the house clean and tidy. Ana and Álvaro are 100% reliable and very attentive housesitters—we’d love to have them back at any time!

Melissa was great, laid back and flexible but also took the responsibility seriously. It was really nice for the animals to have someone calm and quiet with them to follow their routine. Communication was perfect, I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing she was there looking after everything. Plants were all watered and healthy, house was lovely and clean. Thanks Meli! It was a pleasure

How lucky we feel to have found Tim & Elyse! They are both fantastic: exceptionally mature & wise (well beyond their biological years!!), responsible, conscientious and caring, as well as flexible and accommodating. Very observant about the personalities and quirks of the cats in their care, they noticed a couple of things and brought to our attention. And sent some of the best photos we've seen! We came home to calm, happy cats and a sparkling clean house. Highly recommend! And if you can, plan some extra time with them as they're also great conversationalists and all around good company.

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!!

Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs!
I highly recommend her!!

Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. 

The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!

Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. 
We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. 
I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) 
Thank you, Angela and Erica!

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!

Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!

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.

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.
