Nautia and Colter were excellent pet and house sitters. They were very communicative and kept us in the loop regularly about how our cat Nicholas was doing. A tropical storm came through while we were away and they were proactive about bringing in lawn furniture prior to its arrival as well as doing light clean up in its wake. The house was clean upon our return and plants watered as requested. Most importantly, Nicholas was calm and happy when we got home. 6 weeks was a long time to be away so we were relieved to have found just the right sitters to keep him company. Normally he cries and is out of sorts for a few days after our return but there was none of that this time so we know he was comfortable. We also appreciated the photos they took and sent us periodically. Would definately invite them back!

This is the second time we have used Jen. If I had my way, I would use her every time. She sent us pictures of our pets gave them massages sang to them was great about giving them their medication and lots of love. The reason I can tell is because when we got home, they were so mellow and laid-back you could tell all their needs had been met. She is wonderful.

WOW, WOW, WOW!!! If you have the opportunity to get Willow (aka Sherri) and Curt to sit for your four-legged children run, don’t walk, to say YES! From the minute they arrived we knew we made the right decision. They came in a day early so we could give them the lay of the land asking appropriate questions indicating that they read all the information we sent them. Scout (our 11 yr. old) needed to go to the vet for an infection the day they arrived. Needless to say we were concerned about leaving a sick pet. We left them with lots of meds (even a new one that they needed to start when it arrived in the mail) , bath requirements (they needed to wash Scouts vaginal area every other day). Scout does not like baths, so this was no easy feat. When we returned Scout looked and acted so much better and they left a detailed log of all the meds (and shampoo) given during their sit (tried to include a picture to show you ). Curtis made and left us a turmeric paste that decreases inflammation. He left us the recipe and the website to get more information. “Above and Beyond” does not quite cover it……they were wonderful! The weather was especially hot while we were gone. They added water to their food to increase hydration (which was brilliant- wish I thought of that!) and took them out early and late in the day for paw protection and heat. Our guys are different, and they were able to give them both what they needed. Curt took Maverick for a walk on the beach twice a day and Scout got her leisurely walk with Willow. Despite the heat our outside plants looked great. They even blew the outside. As for the inside of the house, it also looked terrific. The house was vacuumed, sheets clean and back on the guest bed, flowers on the table, indoor plants looked better than ever, garbage taken to the recycling center, ………we could go on. Bottom line, grab them if you can. Fabulous sitters!!!

Ted and Maggi were terrific. Our time away was cut short because we canceled our intended cruise due to the corona virus. They were so flexible with the time. Their stay was cut short also . We heartily recommend them as sitters and hope that they might return to us one day. Stella was well cared for in our absence. We've had nothing but GOOD luck with sitters.

I can't recommend Candy enough! She was so pleasant to communicate with before and during the sit. I left for my trip with total confidence. She kept me up to date with the house and pets the perfect amount. The house was in perfect condition when we came home. I hope our paths cross again!

Janice & Mark went way above and beyond during their sit. They cleaned up and washed/dried/changed the sheets in the guest room. They sent pics of themselves walking and relaxing with my dog. They were great communicators and very pleasant to work with. I'd happily host them again!

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

Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.

Jasmine is a five-star sitter.  She is everything you want in a sitter when you go away and leave your beloved pet and home.  She is reliable, communicative, respectful, and flexible.  We had no worries about our dog or home while we were away, and will be having Jasmine sit for us again soon.  Our home was immaculate when we got home, and our dog was obviously well-cared-for.  Can't say enough good things about this wonderful human.

Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her!

Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload.

But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too.

Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control.

Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures.

If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!

Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)!  She was responsible,  self sufficient and very responsive.  She took the time to come meet our dog  ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip.  She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away.  She was extremely clean and followed our household routine.  And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe!  Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met.  I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!

Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.

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.

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.

You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! 

Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them!

During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable.

After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! 

If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!
