New Zealand Professional Couple with a Love for Pets
Leah and Matthew were amazing. Our dog, Blossom, has anxiety, and within no time at all, she was snuggling and living her best life (now I know how to give her head massages!). They were extremely communicative and caring. I was in a place without easy access to the internet, and they took great pains to keep me updated and informed about Blossom and our two cats. Thank you for the excellent care!

Retired professional couple interested in places and people.
Carol & Ray were amazing, they arrived a day early for the sit and stayed in a local motel so they could meet us & the kittens before we went on holiday, this was so helpful and thoughtful! Carol sent us a really nice email with an account of their time with our kittens, its clear when you meet Carol that she really loves animals, our cats were both very happy and relaxed on our return and our house was very clean and tidy. Highly recommend.

Kiwi, independent, remote worker, exploring the UK
This was my first experience of using zeewoi and I was delighted with the care and attention Kate provided. I had chance to meet with Kate before I left Flori with her. I felt 100% confident going away for 8 days. Flori has never been left in her 7 years. We returned to a chilled out Flori and a neat and tidy house. Thank you Kate I will certainly use zeewoi again and hopefully Kate too.

Professional Kiwi couple keen to engage in different cultures and communities.
Chris and Donna are truly 5-star! They took such great care of the dogs and the house making our long travel overseas completely stress free. They sent photos and updates daily. The dogs loved them so much that they are still looking for them days later. We hope they can sit for us again. A wonderful couple,

We want to give them back the love that they give us every day.
Fabio and Melanie looked after my two dogs for just over two weeks. If they apply for a sit with you, I strongly recommend you consider them. They were great communicators and came to visit the dogs the day before the sit started, which made my departure easy as the dogs were already comfortable with them. During the sit they sent me pictures and movies, which were much appreciated. On my return they had cleaned the apartment beautifully(thanks SO much!). Most importantly, the dogs seemed very happy and well cared for. Thanks Fabio and Melanie for being such amazing sitters!!

Trustworthy and reliable house sitter in the Bay of Plenty
I wouldn't hesitate to ask Leah to housesit and cat sit for me in the future. Nothing was a problem for her, she bonded well with my pet and sent progress reports from time to time.

Your pets are important to you and I understand that -they will love me for sure
Mark was a great sitter. Good communication, willing to meet us prior to going on holiday and focused on giving our two cats the care they needed. Mark sent us some pics of the cats relaxing with him and the house was spotless when we got home. We couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Mark. We don't travel much, but would be happy for you to sit for us again. Bernadette & Owen

Simply the best. We cannot praise her enough. Our dog Jack loved her and was clearly very content with his time spent with Helen. Helen arrived the night before we left for our holiday. We and Jack bonded very quickly with her. . She was so easy and cheerful. It was such a relief. It meant that we could go away knowing Jack would be fine and of course he was. Helen gives gold star care. She is an absolute treasure. Thank you Helen for loving and caring for Jack. We are deeply grateful.

Fit and kind teacher looking for some time alone with a pet to love.
We were really grateful that Clare was able to look after our cats at short notice. She was extremely easy to communicate with, accommodating, and very competent and organized. We felt 100% confident leaving our pets in her hands.

Reliable retired teachers looking for house sits around the world.
We left the house confident the dogs and house were in the best of hands. While away, we received lovely messages and photos showing very happy dogs. And on return we found everything so clean and tidy and the dogs had obviously been given the best of care - lots of love and walks. We were so glad Andy and Julie had a chance to go and explore locally too. We would happily invite them back at any time.
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!!!
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
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!
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
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.
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 🙂
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
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.
