Line and Hoyt did another extended sit for us. They were dream house sitters as always. (When we returned my son said the house was "better than new," which pretty much sums it up.) Line and Hoyt were a joy to interact with all summer, sent plenty of updates about Zoey, and left the house in terrific shape. They also welcomed us home with an amazing homemade quiche and some sweet Belgian treats to boot. But the best part of all was the love and devotion they showered on Zoey. It could not be more obvious from Zoey's demeanor that she had the summer of her life, swimming in love and attention. Z--who normally dreads our departures and lives for our returns-- moped around for several days after our return looking for her best buds Line and Hoyt to come back. And she was notably more relaxed and well behaved--a summer of getting taken everywhere by Line and Hoyt has made her a much better companion on our outings with the kids. I am so grateful Line and Hoyt agreed to come back this summer to give Zoey the best staycation of her life!

Reliable and caring 5-star house and pet sitters. Dutch/American, travel ready.
Nancy and Gerard couldn't have been nicer. I was ill and unable to go out of town as planned, and they adjusted to my occasional presence when I was able to drag myself to the kitchen for food. Nancy never failed to ask if I needed anything while they were out. She kindly not only stripped the bed, but put the linens in the washer and got that started for me at the end of the sit. I'm hoping to see them again when they're coming to the Berkshires and I'm my normal self!

Woman that loves life, traveling and nature
Carla was very self-sufficient and took good care of the house while we were away. Sadly for me and luckily for Carla, she wasn't required to do all that was required for a sick cat as Cassius had passed away just before her stay. My sourdough starter is still alive and the garden is in decent shape -- I know it is hard to eat/pick that many raspberries and beans! I'm pleased the chalet was in good hands while we were away. Thank you.

We had a fantastic experience from beginning to end with Veerle, a true testament to this website. Took great care of Manny and the house, gave us regular updates and made our time away in general a lot more relaxing in the knowledge she was there. We would have Veerle back and reccomed her without hesitation. Thanks again!

Single woman to look after house..
Danielle is a warm and kind person with so many interests. She is extremely efficient and kept me informed of her arrival times, the dogs welfare throughout our holiday and her departure from the sit. She is so calm and nothing seemed to phase her. An added bonus was coming home to a lovely drawing of our older dog that Danielle had done. We so enjoyed meeting her and having her take care of our house and dogs. We would love to have her come and stay again.

Elise is an amazing housesitter! I love to travel but I also love my cat, so only the best care is good enough for her. And that’s exactly what Elise provided. She even went above and beyond my expectations. From the very beginning, communication with Elise was smooth and easy. She was available, approachable, clear, kind, respectful, … in her communication. While I was away, she kept me updated with wonderful messages and pictures of my cat and the apartment, which allowed me to travel with a peaceful and carefree mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Ikea, as she took the time to play with her, cuddle her and spend quality time together. I returned to a very happy cat. Ikea even “told” me that Elise took very good care of her. 😻 Elise did also an outstanding job of keeping my apartment in perfect condition! When I returned, everything was spotless and organized, even better than when I left. Elise has an excellent sense of organisation and a talent for making things better, easier, nicer, more cozy, … The little changes she made, gave my apartment a lovely “upgrade”. 😊 She truly went above and beyond, not only by maintaining my place clean and tidy, but also by leaving thoughtful gifts for me. This was a very nice surprise. 🤩 Elise loves to show her kindness, gratitude and love. It was so nice to come home in such a warm atmosphere. 🙏🏻 Describing Elise in a few words: kind, caring, available, warmhearted, respectful, dedicated, friendly, organized, tidy, communicative, responsible, helpful, reliable, funny, … If you are looking for a trustworthy housitter “with extra sparkle”, I highly recommend Elise. Thank you Elise, for you exceptional service, care and for the warmhearted person you are! ✨🙏🏻❤️

Looking forward to get to know you, your pet and help out while you're away
Well, I never met Nina, she was very communicative, thorough, and left my home and kitty as if nothing had ever happened. I highly recommend using Nina in the future and if she’s ever back in Seattle, I will happily host her again.

This was our second time having Delphine sit for us and she was great as per usual! She is very communicative and sends lots of photos/videos which help keep us at ease. We'd have her back again anytime!

Experienced and animal loving couple would love to housesit for you.
Cristel and Michiel are just wonderful and kind. Whilst we were away, they sent us pictures, videos and messages everyday about our pets and kept us up to date with what they were up to. It was so lovely for my young daughters to see that everyone was being cared for and loved. Thank you both so much for everything, we hope you are free to come back to Cambridge again! Warmest wishes from us all to you. The Klein family

Trustworthy and responsible cat lover
Christophe was a joy to have sit, and the cats really took to him. They certainly missed him upon our return! Also very clean and tidy - and respectful of our home. We’d definitely have him back again!
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters. They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine. Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well. Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well. We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Katrina and her family were amazing house sitters who took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog is reluctant to go on walks with new people, but the entire family pitched in and found ways to take her to the park. Her daughter developed a particularly close bond with our dog. Katrina communicated us frequently and we always felt reassured by her messages. We returned from our long trip to a spotless home and a beautiful cake in the fridge. What more could you want!
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
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.
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!!
I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.
