Sean & Eva were the unexpected answer to our housesitting search! We are so grateful they agreed to our sit. They were relaxed, organized, asked all the right questions & easy to communicate and plan with. We found them to be friendly with quick responses. We appreciated the updates of our pets (dog & salt-water aquarium) and we know Goose will be counting down the years until he gets to see them again. Our home was impeccably clean upon our return, the lawn was mowed, and flowers tended too, PLUS they left us with a DELICIOUS pot of chili and homemade bread to help us transition back to life in our home! We are so grateful they chose us for a sit as our home and pets (and souls) were well taken care of. Please make sure you respond to Sean and Eva immediately so you can secure them for your sits!!

Catia and James were exceptional sitters! Most importantly, they looked after our pets as if our dog and cat were their own. They took the time to understand exactly what our animals needed and followed through with all our requirements. Our dog Nikka who can tend to be anxious, felt comfortable with them almost right away due to their calm/gentle demeanor. We were kept updated through numerous messages, photos and videos and we know our pets got lots of attention, exercise and love. Our house and pool were well kept. As sitters, Catia and James were friendly, thoughtful, reliable and very helpful. We would highly recommend them to others.

Carol was a wonderful house sitter! We were very happy to get to meet with her a few weeks before her sit for us, since she was already in town, and we did a little tour and she got to meet the cats. Despite dealing with some personal family issues while we were away, Carol was an attentive house sitter and she sent us regular updates about the cats. Our house was very clean and tidy when we got home, which made for a lovely homecoming. The cats were clearly happy and had been well taken care of. We'd be happy to host Carol again any time!

Liz and Vladi were perfect guests and pet-sitters! They took good care of our Dachshund/Teckel Lola, the house and gardens. Lola is not always the easiest to manage, but Liz was very patient, instantly bonded and looked after Lola with care and attention. All communication was prompt, easy and pleasant. Liz asked well in time if she could bring along Vladi, which that was perfectly fine and worked out well. We all got along really well and had fun in the extra day that we took to explain our routines with Lola and to introduce Liz and Vladi to their surroundings. It was wonderful to get to know each other and we recommend Liz gladly as a five-star pet-sitter!

Sharon and Dave were terrific sitters for the house and Rosie. The sit was incredibly straightforward to organise, they kept in touch regularly, sent me plenty of updates and generally set my mind at rest throughout the process. One of the main reasons I selected them for the sit was the number of sits they'd already completed and the glowing reviews they received. Their experience and ease with the whole process showed, and I can also see why they got so many great reviews. Rosie looked to be having a whale of a time throughout their stay, and I had messages from other people I knwo in the town saying they'd met Sharon and Dave out and about and that Rosie seemed very happy and well-cared for. The house was spotless upon my return with all the laundry already on; Rosie had been given a bath and I had not a moment's concern about any aspect of the sit. Thank you Sharon and Dave, you're welcome to come back and mind Rosie again any time.

Dee and John ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST!🤗 The communication with Dee was easy and direct, we got a lot of daily updates which we really appreciated. Our cat Fynn got the best care while we were away. 🐈 Our apartment was left spotless, and Dee even put fresh bedsheets on our bed so that we wouldn’t have to do that in the evening of our return, so so sweet.😊 Dee also took care of our plants and greenhouse which was just amazing! 🌱 We will definitely invite them back and we recommend everyone to do so too! 😊 Thank you again for everything 💜

There are not enough stars here for Kera and Holly. I cannot express how happy we were with them both. We had been communicating for a while before this sit and so were delighted when they were able to do it for us. We got daily updates with the most beautiful photos of all our pets which was so reassuring. Our dogs got so many lovely adventures I'm sure they didnt want us to come home 😂 Our home was so well looked after. We would recommend Kera and Holly 100% without hesitation & hope we can secure them again in the future.

Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter

Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!

Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. 
We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. 
Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. 
Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. 
We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. 
Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!

Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂

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!

Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.

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!

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!

Oh my Goodness!  Where to begin.  Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia!  She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.  When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy!  What more can you ask for, right?  Well with Linda you get all that and more.  Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia.  The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean!  Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
