Becky
Essex Junction, Vermont
Reliable and experienced pet/home sitter with a huge passion for animals
Becky was wonderful with our dog and took excellent care of the house.
Linda
Essex Junction, Vermont
I WILL CARE FOR YOUR PET AS IF THEY WERE MY OWN!
Another great sit with Linda. She even helped us with training Hazel to ignore the dogs next door. Highly recommend Linda—she is great with both the dog and chickens, left the house beautiful, and was perfectly communicative. Hazel adores her!
Debby
Essex Junction, Vermont
Reliable, caring woman will make sure your pet(s) feels loved in your absence.
Debby was an amazing pet-and-house sitter! Dave and I cannot say enough good things about her: she is personable, highly responsible, organized, tidy, pro-active, energetic, and self-sufficient. And she is a lovely human being with a deep love for and understanding of dogs (I'm sure she would be equally empathic with cats). She took amazing care of our furry children and in particular took Apollo, our energetic 2 year old Golden, on long on-and-off leash hikes every day, sending us pictures of his adventures. She left our house spotless and our plants well-cared for. I also feel like we've made a friend ! Such a great experience-- highly recommend!
Mary
Essex Junction, Vermont
Caring Companionship for your Beloved Pets and Attentive Presence for Your Home.
Mary was a joy to work with from the start- great communicator & very organized. She developed a good rapport with our grumpy old cat and sent the sweetest updates with photos. It really put us at ease that Sandy was well cared for and not missing us too much! Mary was also a courteous house guest and took good care of our plants and cleaned up beautifully. We will definitely invite Mary to come sit for us again!
Julianna
Essex Junction, Vermont
Kind, professional, and clean sitter excited to care for your pets and home
I was so happy that I found Julianna to dog sit for me. I would 100% recommend her to everyone. She is everything you could ask for in a dog sitter. She asked the right questions so that she could be prepared and overall put me at ease throughout my vacation. She is also very pleasant and easy to talk to! She is clearly experienced with dogs. My dog took a liking to her the moment she walked in. She fed him on time, spent ample time with him (he is a small, needy yorkiepoo), and even took him to the office. She sent us daily updates on the situation at home and it was clear from the pictures that my dog was having a good time. She was quick to respond when I contacted her while I was on vacation. She even cleaned the apartment before she left. My dog was happy and healthy when I got back. I would definitely use her again!
Nirav
Essex Junction, Vermont
Professional couple taking care of your home & pets as you do.
This was the second time Audrey (and her husband Kurt as well, this time) stayed with Millie, and it was so seamless, with frequent brief notes and photos reminding me of how lucky Millie was to get such attention. My plants were well-tended to and the house was left spotless. If Audrey and her husband Kurt apply to housesit for you, you should grab that chance - they are so wonderfully caring and responsible.
Maria
Essex Junction, Vermont
Experienced, trustworthy, and loving
Maria was great! Everything was well taken care of and she and her dog were wonderful with my dog and house.
Vida
Essex Junction, Vermont
It will be my pleasure to take care of your home and pets while you're away.
Vida was a house-sitter 'par excellence'. We cannot have wished for more than her cheerful, efficient and super-helpful presence. We were away for an extended time with full confidence that our house and pet were in the best possible hands. It was a joy to come home to everything in perfect order.
Kate
Essex Junction, Vermont
Responsible and reliable writer & cat care specialist
Kate was an AMAZING cat sitter, and a wonderful house sitter! She took excellent care of our two cats while we traveled overseas for a month. She really understands cats' ways and needs and went above and beyond in making sure they were safe, happy and stress-free in our absence. She sent pictures, and stayed in communication (at my request). She left the house clean and in great shape. We couldn't have found a better fit for our needs. Kate is mature, responsible, attuned and knowledgeable about cats -- plus, she's just a lovely person. We're delighted to have met her. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter for your animals.
Alan
Essex Junction, Vermont
Writing about my house-sitting days!
Alan was such a great sitter for our dog Tush! He was very communicative and easy to work with before his stay and during! Very cool and easygoing but attentive person! We would definitely Alan back to sit for Tush anytime without hesitation.

Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!
Sam
Martin and Caitlin are the best house/pet sitters we've ever had. They came fully prepared (they had read through welcome packet thoroughly before they arrived), they sent the best texts and pics to reassure us all was well, and the house was immaculate when we got home. Best of all, they treated Winston like family and he clearly fell in love with them. They are considerate, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. We absolutely would love to have them back (honestly, every time we go on a trip!). They are fantastic and we are truly grateful for the care and love they showed to both our dog and our home.
Sheri
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Alexis
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
SOPHIA
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!

Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
DAVID
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
Lori
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.
Tania
Delphine was amazing. All 3 of our fur babies took an instant liking to her, which is very unusual of them. We right away knew both our cats and our dog would be happy with her. We came back to relaxed and happy pets and a clean house. We think we found our ‘go to’ house sitter with Delphine. We would love to have her over again.
Sidney & Larry
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
