Michael and Gayln are very kind and responsible people. They were attentive to our requests regarding our home and were very loving towards our dog. The house was left in great shape upon their departure. We sincerely hope that they will return to us again one day!

Look no further! I could not have hoped to find better housesitters than Linda and Dave. They are just brilliant. They stayed at my house for 2.5 months over the winter in England whilst I was on the other side of the world. Both of them are lovely people who were very caring towards my cat, Como. They are diligent and very communicative. My house was left in perfect condition and my cat was a happy chappy throughout the housesit. My cat instantly warmed to Linda and Dave and I felt very comfortable leaving him in their care on the handover day. I received brilliant photos from Linda of Como (she is a superb photographer). Linda and Dave are very trustworthy and I can recommend them without reservation for any housesit that they want to do in the future. You will be lucky to have them.

I just want to say Kathryn was awesome from the first intro/meeting video to the last day of our vacation. She was punctual, kind and also relaxed, which I think really helped our kitty to quickly get used to her. All in all, because of her we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our cat at home.

Our home was clean and tidy when we returned from our long trip. It was nice to come home to clean. The dogs were happy and alive. I am sure they were a handful with all of the storms that occurred during Maxine's stay. Zoe is very afraid of storms but seems no worse for wear. Thank you for taking care of things while we were away.

For our first experience using the app we were very lucky to have had Amy take care of Dozer. From the first Zoom call we could tell that she takes her role as doggo caretaker seriously and enjoys showering puppers with love. She sent lots of pictures and videos so we could relax knowing he was in good hands. He might be spoiled because of all the attention, but I guess that's okay. And she left the place in immaculate condition! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a sitter for their special 4-legged friend. Thanks again, Amy.

Got home this afternoon to a clean house. Happy pets. Healthy plants and garden. While I was gone, any and all issues were handled with confidence and professionalism. I never worried about anything, not once. I can't tell you all how good that feels. I would welcome them back any time.

This seemed to be the perfect match of a wonderful, caring, pet/house sitter and our place. Gretchen sent us an update every day, with pictures most days, and it was obvious she loved our cats. She took care of our leaky pool and watering plants and the lawn and left everything spotless. She even left us some wonderful soup. We hope to have her sit here again in the future.

Kelley watched our house and 4 cats for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of our cats and we came home to a tidy house. We got regular updates on the cats while we were gone. Would recommend Kelley to anyone looking for a house sitter!

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!

We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. 
We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida!
Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. 
We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. 
We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover

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!!

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

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!

Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose.  
Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes.  They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit.  They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day.  They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety.  We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard.  He was so happy!  No problems were encountered with the house.  Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose.  
The house was spotless when we returned.  Everything in proper order, better than we left it.  
We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!

Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests.  Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left.   I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

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.

I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend.   Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay.  It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail.   She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures.  I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it.  I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!

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!
