Deb and Dale were outstanding in caring for our two cats and our home while we were away for almost 2 weeks. This was our first experience with zeewoi so we were a little anxious at first, but they communicated well and put us at ease. Deb and Dale are experienced petsitters and were very communicative before, during, and after the petsit. Upon our return, it was obvious that our cats were very well cared for during our absence. Deb and Dale treated our home well, and they left the house cleaner than we left it. We couldn't tell that anyone had stayed in our house for almost 2 weeks! And, they watered and cared for our flower and plants. Tim and I highly recommend Deb and Dale and we plan to use them again should our schedules match up in the future.

This was out first time using Zeewoi and we are absolutely thrilled with our choice of Jeff and Susan. The arrived early so we could go through the workings of our house and pet needs before we left, and we left feeling very assured that the house and pets were in good caring hands. Jeff and Susan kept in contact with us and sent updates and pictures of the animals every couple of days. They were very accommodating when trades people turned up expectantly. Jeff and Susan left the house in a spotless condition, stripped the bed and washed the sheets and towels and even cooked us dinner and left a bottle of lovely red wine. We feel blessed to have had such wonderful people stay in our house and would not hesitate in highly recommending them for any house sit. All the best in your travels Jeff and Susan, and we look forward to catching up one day on your home turf :-)

It was a pleasure to have Kimberly look after Hunter! She kept me informed of things on the home front, provided clear communications about her travel to/from Vernon so I could plan accordingly, and left my place clean and tidy for my return! Anyone who has the opportunity to work with Kimberly should accept it! Thanks, Kim!

Janine and Kevin are just the loveliest of house guests. Betsy was immediately comfortable with them, as were we. They are a couple who very much put the pet at the centre of their stay and it was so good to be able to leave, secure in the knowledge that they and Betsy were so compatible. Janine and Kevin are seasoned travellers and were great company. They are very respectful of your property and home and looked after everything so well. They are also exceptionally clean and tidy. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Karen and Andy cared of our pet Amazon parrot and our home over a short vacation. They are kind, caring, and down to earth people and we found it very easy to communicate with them and we felt very comfortable leaving Yoshi in their care. For this trip specifically I was difficult to contact so we really appreciate how self sufficient they were in solving any problems that came up. If Karen and Andy are ever looking for another getaway in our area they're always welcome at our home.

Darlene was fantastic! She did two back to back sits for me when I had about 3 weeks of travel (with less than 2 hours at home just to do laundry and leave again) — she was flexible by being okay with me coming home for that little window which was so nice so I didn’t have to get a new sitter and my cat had someone consistent. I got to know Darlene better in that small window and she was great! Again— tidy home, organized, responsible, and most importantly snuggled with my cat and kept her cared for. I loved getting photos of them snuggled on couch! Highly recommend and would gladly welcome her back!

Ed & Carol were our longest sitters to date at 3.5 months. From the first time we spoke over a year ago, we knew they were the perfect fit for our super long sit, and proved us to be right in that assumption. Keeping us updated on how the cats were and on repairs to the wall blown down in a storm (before they arrived), it was perfect from beginning to end. We would happily have them come sit again for us AND recommend them for your sits.

Olha and Ivan took amazing care of my pets and home. They are great communicators, and took the time to video call and come in person before the sit. My home was immaculate when I got back and Lucy and Tux were happy.

Lauren was a real gem. We set up a time to meet in person before confirming the sit and we got a sense that she was very warm and open and really liked animals. Lauren was unable to stay at our home for 2 nights due to a forgotten prior commitment but she let us know before the sit and immediately suggested that her parents could help for those 2 days (her mom has a petting sitting biz and we felt confident after speaking that they would do an excellent job) Lauren was apologetic and was understanding if we chose to pick another housesitter. We went ahead with Lauren and her folks and couldn't be happier! The cats were well taken care of and happy and the house was clean, tidy and vacuumed when we came home. Lauren messaged daily with pictures as we requested and we would gladly recommend her as a reliable and kind person to watch your home and pets. We have already had her back to watch the cats since and plan to ask her again!

Rob was an awesome sitter. This was the first time we had left our dog at home with a sitter. Rob was very caring and kind to Gary. Rob left the house very tidy, returned any texts we sent immediately, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dog. Thanks Rob.

I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day.  I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.

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!!

Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly 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!

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!

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.

Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. 
Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!

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.

Veronica House sat for us for a month.  She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat.

Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals.  They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them.

When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe,  she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity.  She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks.  This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy.

A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in.
 
Our cat was so content and well-groomed​ upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention,  too.

Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day.

I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home.

We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.
