We were so so lucky to have Majda sit for us. She went above and beyond to care for our house, plants and our kitty. She came over ahead of time (twice!) to meet us and to get my detailed instructions about everything. She felt like a friend. I felt completely at ease while we were overseas knowing Majda was at our house. She sent sweet photos of the kitty a few times which was very thoughtful. She even picked us up at the airport on our return! Our house was spotless when we got home. She is a gem! We will for sure ask her to sit again!

Anthea and Lawson took excellent care of our cat Sherlock and our home and garden! Prior to confirming the sit, we had a video call and an in-person meeting to get to know them. They communicated regularly and arrived and departed when we had agreed. They are lovely people and we will definitely have them again as housesitters if our schedules allow!

Michelle was an amazing sitter. She was very communicative, friendly, and took great care of our kitty. The house was spotless when we returned and she had even left us a gift which was so thoughtful. We would absolutely recommend Michelle and would be happy to have her sit again!

Dianne and Dan were excellent house sitters and took great care of our two cats and our dog. They sent photos and gave updates, and even dealt with our dog getting unexpectedly sick, providing lots of care to her and reassurance to us! They left the house tidy and we wouldn't hesitate to have them stay again and highly recommend them to others. Thanks so much!

Toni and Philip took great care of our home and our pets. Toni was very attentive and easy to communicate to, Philip was also great but a bit less engaging. Both are very kind and respectful.

Michael and Donna were great! They are clearly old hands at taking care of pets (and a home) and were calm and warm. We were able to meet in advance and they were friendly and fun. They have great stories of previous house sits and the connections that developed as a result. Our house was immaculate when we got back. And the kitties were calm and happy. And they did a great job checking in. Thanks, Donna and Michael. Highly recommended.

It was just David this time and only a cat sit. Our review stays the same. AMAZING! This is the 3rd time he or both he and Irene have sat for us. We love having them here. The kitties were perfectly attended to and the house left as he found it. We are so happy to have found them. You can’t go wrong with them watching your furries and your home.

Traveling away from your home can be stressful, especially when you leave your furry baby behind but if you can find someone like Amy, you can travel with peace of mind knowing everything will be well taken care of. Amy is an incredible sitter who felt more like family member than a new sitter. From her awesome communication from beginning to end, to the care she took of our Parker, to returning to our home even cleaner than we left it. I highly recommend Amy if you have the opportunity to welcome her to your home. Looking forward to her next trip to LA

We feel so fortunate to have found Drisana to take care of our sweet pup Sammy during our long vacation in Europe. She took loving care of our dog and house, providing enough in the way of updates for us to be confident that everything was in order. When we returned Sammy had a new bath and the house was spotless. We hope that we can have the pleasure of welcoming Drisana to our home again sometime soon!

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!

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.

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.

Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!

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.

Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests.  Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left.   I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Lisa was a terrific sitter for our sweet Rosie.  She arrived the evening before the sit, and we immediately could tell how much love and attention Rosie was to get.  She provided updates and pictures which we were delighted to read, and we could tell Rosie was happy and well-cared for with Lisa on their walks and fetching sessions, on their car rides, and during Rosie’s many daily naps.  Lisa left the house in great condition, she’s very tidy and clean. Lisa’s experience with dogs and her friendly, sweet personality makes her an excellent sitter taking good care of animals while also being easy to communicate with.  I would recommend her and would gladly invite her back.

As ever, Charlie was the perfect dog/house sitter - took loving care of our dog and looked after the house and garden as if they were her own; all returned in immaculate conditon!

I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!
