Maggie and Matias were outstanding house and pet sitters. I would have them again in an instant. They were so very respectful of our home, treating it as their own and left it very clean, even washing the sheets and making our bed with fresh sheets before we got home! They were amazing with our pets. Maggie took the time to talk with us via video call in advance and arranged to arrive before we left so we could show her around. When she arrived, she already knew each dog by name as she studied in advance so she was prepared to care for the pups. She gave them attention right away and they were comfortable with her by the time we left 30 minutes later. Maggie stayed in touch while we were gone and sent us photos of our Chihuahuas snuggling next to her looking happy as can be. Her love of dogs is so apparent and they loved her right away. This was my first time using zeewoi and it was an absolutely positive experience. I was worried trying this the first time and Maggie showed me I had nothing to worry about whatsoever. I absolutely adored her and Matias. They were outstanding.

Amanda was an exceptional pet sitter. She coordinated with us prior to her arrival and came early enough for us to show her the house and yard, meet the cat, and answer her questions. The cat obviously enjoyed her company, as evident by the photos of him hanging out with her. She kept us updated with how things were at home, but not excessively so, and even took the initiative to make sure that our freezer was working well when she detected a potential problem. Amanda cleaned the house and even washed the bedding and towels before we returned, leaving us with no work whatsoever. We recommend her highly and would certainly invite her to sit for us in the future.

If I could leave 10 stars I would. Heikki is amazing!! We encountered a situation where our pup became ill and Heikki ended up having to take our pup to the pet emergency TWICE. She kept us very well informed, was not at all stressed or bothered by the inconvenience and her biggest concern was making sure our pup was safe and comfortable. She made batches of chicken and rice for puppers and did everything she could to help. We ended up coming home early as our pup still wasn't feeling great, and Heikki just went with the flow, not at all bothered, only wanting what was best for our dog. I would recommend Heikki to anyone. She is trustworthy, responsible, has excellent communication and goes above and beyond. Thank you for everything, Heikki!

Exceptional Zeewoi! Floss was organized, energetic, and self-sufficient. Our anxious dog Sofie felt safe and at ease with her. She often sent lovely photos of Sofie out and about on adventures. Floss cleaned our home prior to our return, including the refrigerator. She had homemade soup and cookies made for us. It felt like coming home to my mom’s house. We hope we can entice her to come back often, for future sits or even just to visit us! If she applies for your sit, consider yourself blessed and confirm her without hesitation.

From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!!
She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :)
Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. 
Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!

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!

Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year!

From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator.  While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text.  It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have.  

Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house.  Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease.  Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start).  

While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW).  Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible.

Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve!  

When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was!  Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly.  Seriously, our house felt like we never left it.  Everything was spotless, shinny and clean.  She didn’t miss a beat!!  Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!).  Haha.  

If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough.  Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise.  She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had.  She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.

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.

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.

Alia is awesome and we have used her several times.  She is a 5 star rated sitter every time.  The dogs are happy and the house is perfect when we get home.  She even cooked dinner for our arrival home because we came home late.  Highly recommend Alia!!
