The boys adore Angela and this time they were as happy as always to have her around. Everything was great as usual during her sit and we look forward to having her back again this November :-)

Lucy, Latisa, Grace and Katrina were phenomenal house and pet sitters. I cannot say enough great things about them. First and foremost they took great care of our pets. I received regular updates which always makes a pet owner happy. Our house was treated like their own. They left the house with clean sheets on all the beds which was so appreciated and the house was very clean. It is always great to come home without having to do laundry. They even left us a wonderful thank you card with a special treat. They are welcome back anytime. I can tell they are genuinely nice and caring people.

Absolutely thrilled with Paige's pet sitting services! She watched our two large dogs over a long weekend, and we couldn't be happier. From the moment we met Paige, we felt at ease with her calm and friendly demeanor. Our dogs took to her immediately, which is no small feat given their size and energy levels. Paige went above and beyond in caring for our fur babies. She sent us regular updates, including photos and videos, so we never had to worry about how they were doing. It was clear she genuinely enjoyed spending time with them, playing their favorite games, and ensuring they got plenty of exercise. When we returned home, our dogs were happy, well-fed, and clearly well-loved. The house was immaculate! We could tell she had given them plenty of attention and care, as they were their usual playful selves but with a contented calm that only comes from feeling secure and happy. We wholeheartedly recommend Paige to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. She truly treats your pets as if they were her own. Thank you, Paige, for giving us peace of mind and for taking such wonderful care of our beloved dogs!

Tammy was reliable and responsible. She came the night before we left on our trip so we were able to enjoy getting to know her a little bit. She took good care of the chickens and left the house clean and tidy. We'd have no hesitation about recommending Tammy for future sits or using her again if she was passing through Jacksonville.

Deanna was an incredible house and petsitter. She was extremely thoughtful and responsible, and she went out of her way to help us get on our way and enjoy a worry-free trip. She was very gracious about our requests and the house looked sparkly clean when we arrived home. The dogs seemed to love her and we know she showed them a lot of care and attention. We're so grateful to have met her and hope Deanna stays with us again!

Mary Ellen is an excellent house sitter! She was very easy to communicate and coordinate with and accommodated our crazy travel schedule. She took great care of Tabby and took her on some fun hikes! She left our home clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to have her back!

Lori flew from Kentucky to Cambridge, MA for our sit. We were able to work out all the details beforehand so we both felt comfortable. The sit was fantastic. Lori is a great communicator, very neat and loves dogs!!!! She took great care of Scout and Dottie and sent me pictures and upates. She left the house very clean and was so considerate. I would highly recommend Lori to anyone who wants a terrific sitter. Five stars all the way!!!

Carrie is a lovely, sweet person. Her communication from the start was fantastic. She was gracious enough to agree to also watch our daughter's puppy who is temporarily with us. We had an unfortunate event with our daughter testing positive for Covid so our plans had to change a bit and Carrie was very flexible. When she arrived, it was clear she read our welcome guide because she came prepared with great questions. During her stay, she took pictures of our babies and sent updates, which we always love to receive. We arrived to a clean house and our babies clearly loved her because they wanted to sleep with her when she went off to bed. :-) We were very happy with Carrie and highly recommend her as a Housesitter. You will not be disappointed.

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!

Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!

Evan and Maria were fabulous. They are experienced sitters and it shows in their independence. They sent regular updates, but not too regular and were totally self sufficient. Most importantly both the house and dog were perfect when we returned home.

Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness 

Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health 

I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery

I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude

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!

Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used.  My husky LOVES her.  Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly.  She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia.  She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. 
Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!
