Ezra and Mehmet were great house sitters. They were fantastic with our animals and were highly respectful with our home and garden. I wouldn’t hesitate to have them again. Great people and we hope we’ll stay in touch as friends as well as Zeewoi.

Life writes novels, it creates fantastic stories. One of them is the story about Tuba, Berk and our friendship. From the first phone call, we knew that they were special people, that they would take care of our animals with special attention. And it was even more than that. They took care of our animals in the best possible way, they gave them a lot of love and tenderness, and the animals were with them as if they had always known them. They handled also some hard nights with storms and manage to calm down the dogs. Every day they informed us how our pets were doing. They also took care of the house, the garden, and carefully followed the progress of the tomatoes. They welcomed us with dinner when we returned from the trip, the house was clean and as a gift we received the most beautiful photos of our pets taken by a Berk professional photographer. Berk and Tuba are truly special and interesting people and we are happy that this app has brought new friends into our lives. This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. We can't wait to see them again. We highly recommend Tuba and Berk.

è stato molto bello incontrare Burcu, persona empatica e gentile. ha avuto da subito un ottimo approccio con Notte ed è stato molto piacevole trascorrere la serata prima della mia partenza assieme a lei. anche lo scambio di messaggi e di foto durante la mia assenza è stato puntuale. al mio ritorno ho trovato la casa perfetta, in ordine e pulita. grazie a Burcu, sarei felice di ospitarla di nuovo!

Sophie was a great pet sitter. She cared very lovingly for my cat. Sophie was reliable, communicative and organized. I surprised her early with coming home and she was not bothered about it, which was nice. My cat felt very comfortable with her. Sophie gave him lots of cuddles and time and effort. I really recommend Sophie as your next sitter. Thank you very much!

Clover enjoyed her time with Nia as they went for long walks exploring the neighbourhood. She sent me videos while they were walking and I could see how happy and excited my dog was. Her comments were funny and I really was looking forward every day to her reports. Clover had a ball! Highly recommend Nia as a house sit.

With Kory and Deniz we have found two responsible and friendly sitters. They lovingly looked after our 3 cats around the clock for 4 weeks. We received regular information about the welfare of our animals. Since the sitters are digital nomads and had to do their regular jobs day and night, this was very beneficial for our three furry friends. They were still able to use our holiday apartment where they lived because they hadn't had a sit in a row yet. We can recommend Kory and Deniz and wish them both further positive sit and all the best for the future.

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

We’re so grateful for the love and care Vanessa gave our two dogs while we were traveling for a weekend. During our trip, she sent us pictures and our dogs always looked happy and at ease. Even during a thunderstorm she cared for our scared older dog who unfortunately had a little accident, and she cleaned up with no complaint. We didn’t have to worry at all which let us truly enjoy our weekend away knowing our dogs were in the best hands!

Vanessa was clean and tidy. We returned home to a neat house and happy pups! She even did the laundry without us asking.

We would highly recommend Vanessa as a sitter for anyone. Thank you so much!!

Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.

If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would!  They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee!  It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for!  They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!

Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter.  She  went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love.  And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also.  I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter.  She is a very sweet lady.  I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.

Emily  and  Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one.  We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc.  I can't recommend them highly enough!

We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs.  We were very happy they accepted.  A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned.  So, we posted more dates on zeewoi.  To our happy surprise,  Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted.   This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs.

We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits.  They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting.  D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals.  This is most important for my wife and I.  We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals.  

Communication was excellent.  The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us.  We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos.  Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us.  D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations.  Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them.  Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare.  We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away.  The dogs definitely love being around D&J.


Homecare:  We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned.  It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better!  D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden.  It is very big and takes hours to mow.  So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. 

Our dogs are so very important to us.  When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world.  We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. 

We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us.  They are fantastic!

Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason!

Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!

Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. 

From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously.

They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. 

In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
