It was a pleasure to have Eleanor sit for Freddie again. Freddie absolutely adores Eleanor & how she cares for him. I never have any worries when Eleanor is sitting for Freddie as she is always in contact & this time as she knew I would be busy with my friends wedding still sent me updates & told me not to worry about replying. Knowing I had those updates sat there to look at when I wasn’t so busy was so nice 🥰 Eleanor always leaves my apartment spotless for when I arrive home. I think I’ve said it before that I’m sure it’s cleaner than when I leave it!!! As always we highly recommend Eleanor to house / pet sit. She really is a huge animal lover & treats your home as if it were her own. Thank you Eleanor & see you soon Vicki & Freddie 🐾

Lola was simply fantastic. Our doggie, June, fell madly in love with her and has been a bit mopey after her departure so we are hoping she plans to visit us in the near future. :> Our chameleon who is never cozy with anyone except me found a friend in Lola and even came out of his perch to hang out on her arm so for us that was a true sign that Lola is indeed an animal whisperer whose special attributes extend not only to kitties and doggies but also to reptiles! Our house was spotless when we returned and our sheets were all clean and ready to go. All our animals were happy, well fed and as I said earlier completely in love with Lola. If we could give 10 stars in a 5 star review we would give them all to Lola. Pleasant, friendly, on time, reliable, conscientious, warm, caring---just the perfect pet sitter you could ever hope for.

This was Sybille and Matthias's third or fourth sit for us. It's always a pleasure having them here and we know that Tora is in very good hands. Communication and organization with Sybille has always been seamless and she always checks if there are any changes to Tora's routine, diet or behaviour - she's on top of things :). The apartment is also kept very clean and tidy. Thank you again Sybille and Matthias, we really appreciated it! Until next time :)

We have had the privilege of having Rosaura and Omar take care of our house and pets several times. We are always delighted with them as a couple, as house sitters, as pet sitters, and as friends. They coped with unseasonably hot weather and several blackouts, as well as a delay in our return due to the CrowdStrike meltdown and managed it all with a smile and grace. We hope to see them again.

Birgitta and Holger sat our house for the fourth time for 8 nights in a row. Please read our previous reviews about them as well. We are always very happy, reassured and relaxed when the two sit our house and cat. We know that everything works 100% in accordance with our ideas. They always are extremely reliable, uncomplicated and leave the house in an extremely tidy and clean condition, which we greatly appreciate. Our cat also loves them very much and is therefore always visibly happy. We thank Birgitta & Holger again from the bottom of our hearts and hope, that they come back many times.

This was the second time Oliver and Isobell have sat for our three dogs. They stayed in our home two years ago and did such an amazing job we had them come back knowing we could trust them to do another brilliant job of looking after our precious girls despite a few changes with their feeding and care. This they willingly did. Our oldest is now 13 and needed a bit more time and patience as she had daily physio exercises for her hips, plus shorter walks etc. that they happily followed. The girls loved them so much. They sat for ages looking down our lane, waiting for them to return after they said goodbye. We would have Oliver and Isabell back in a heartbeat. They also left our home spotless. On behalf of the girls thank you both for your love and kindness 💗 xxx

Vaso was an excellent sitter for Freida and Floki. Before the sit, there was plenty of communication regarding travel plans and pet care. While Floki is outgoing, Freida is a little shy. Freida immediately warmed up, demanding pets and cuddles. Freida is getting old and required medication during the sit, along with getting weighed daily. Vaso had no problem giving Freida her medication. I received daily updates and videos. My apartment was clean and tidy when I returned. I highly recommend Vaso to pet sit, would gladly have again. 10 Stars! 😊

Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend

Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. 

I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.

David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!

Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!

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

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.

We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. 

Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth.

We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. 

Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.

Ray and Lynn are absolutely the best pet sitters you could ask for. They were extremely responsive to texts and emails and chatted with us over WhatsApp before the sit. They were very flexible and arrived the night before our sit so we could leave early the next morning.  They even brought us ice cream because it was Joe's birthday the day they arrived. Very thoughtful of them. They are very friendly, relaxed people that are easy to talk to. Our dogs immediately bonded to Lynn upon their arrival.  The first morning our cat managed to sneak outside and was MIA overnight despite their valiant efforts to get him to return. Ray tried to capture him but our cat fought with him and escaped again before eventually returning the next morning. Unfortunately Ray was scratched and bit by the cat during this struggle.  He developed an infection in his hand. We did offer to come home or find a replacement sitter so they could return to the US but they were able to get medical attention here and antibiotics.  They are so kind and didn't want to ruin our vacation! Two days before we were to arrive home the infection in Ray's hand took a turn for the worse and they had no choice but to head home to the US to get immediate medical care. They waited for our friend to arrive before departing.  We were so impressed with them that even under these stressful circumstances they cleaned our house and laundered the sheets. Our kitchen cupboards looked better organized than before we left. Our garden was watered and well cared for during the heat wave.
They were excellent at sending updates and photos throughout the sit. Our dogs were very happy and well cared for. 
We cannot recommend them highly enough!

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!
