Conscientious and reliable pet lovers
Lynette and Randy as well as Lynette's friend Janyce have house sat for us a number of times in the past, and once again they exceeded our expectations in every way. From the first communication with Lynette, it is clear that she is dedicated to the well being of your pet. Since she began sitting for us, we have added a new puppy to the mix and three dogs, one being a puppy, has not deterred her. In her mind - it adds to the fun of the stay. Lynette is well experienced with dogs and we never worry when she is at out home. Not only are our dogs well loved and cared for, the house is spotless and in perfect condition when we return. She communicates well and is self sufficient. She takes everything in stride and is truly excited to spend time with our dogs. They love it when she is at our place! This time she gave us a treasured keepsake by having each of the dogs create a lovely piece of art. The clever technique involved acrylic paint on canvas, a ziplock bag, peanut butter and dogs licking the peanut butter. lol The result was amazing and the video she sent was so fun to watch! If you get a chance to have Lynette and Randy or Lynette and Janyce come to stay at your place, do not hesitate. Lynette is a superstar sitter and we are fortunate to have her in our lives and the lives of our dogs! Thank you once again Lynette; you are a gem!

Active couple to care for your home & pets, making your travels stress-free!
Sean and Cindy took great care of our pets and home. We went over the instructions by phone a week prior. They communicated and sent photos when they arrived as we had to leave early. They texted us to ensure that all was well and they were enjoying their stay. We came home to happy pets and a clean home! Highly recommend them to watch your pets!

Caring and Responsible Homeowners Would Like to Housesit For You!
We couldn’t have asked for better care for our pup. Kelly and Patrick provided a video chat before the visit and came to meet us in person before we left for our trip. We felt very relaxed knowing our pup was in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Experienced Mature and Loving Pet and House Sitter With Various Referrals
Kim was a wonderful sitter for our cat, Bolt! She took such good care of her and gave her lots of love and cuddles. It was clear that Bolt felt comfortable and relaxed with Kim, which was a relief for us as she can be anxious around new people. Kim communicated regularly with photo and video updates about how Bolt was doing. Our house was clean and tidy upon arrival home, and Kim left some little treats for us as well as a handmade mat that she made for Bolt! We would definitely have Kim housesit for us again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter!

Professional, non-smoking couple. Experienced, reliable home owners.
Five stars for Claire and Terry! They were wonderful, responsible, tidy, communicative and great company. My two boys settled in with them super fast and Terry even received the much-vaunted stamp of approval when Grimth decided to sleep on his feet at night. This is a big deal and should not be underestimated, as Grimth is very sparing with his sleeping honours. I highly recommend this pair for any of your housesitting needs.

Professional Accountant pursuing other possibilities :) :)
We were thrilled to have Debbie return for a second sit. She truly looks after my pets like they are her own, and they love her to pieces. I have complete trust and confidence that my dog Lulu is safe and loved while I am away. This time, my son’s cat joined Debbie and my dog for a few days due to unexpected circumstances and Debbie managed that arrangement with ease and to everyone’s comfort. Debbie also left my home in spotless condition for my return,so nice to return to a happy dog and a clean and tidy home with everything the way I like it :) To top it off, Debbie is a lovely person who I am happy to now consider a friend. Please move to NS Debbie!

Pick us! Pick us!
It was great to have Nicole stay with our pets and look after our home - she took great care of both! She was very responsive and kept us up to date on things at home. She took our dog for long walks and would send photo updates! We'd be more than happy to have Nicole back again, and would definitely recommend her to other.

Caring Canadian Keen to Cuddle Your Pets and Care For Your Home!
Trish was a fabulous pet sitter. She befriended our animals instantly, and gave us daily updates and photos of their antics during our absence. She genuinely enjoyed our cats and dogs, and even tried to befriend the rooster! Our house was very well cared for, too. Thanks, Trish, for your incredible care.
Once again Dede was the most perfect pup and house sitter you could ever hope to have the pleasure of using. She leaves our home cleaner than we left it and our pups so happy that they continue to search for her after she leaves. Dede handled an emergency situation with a false CO2 alarm which resulted in a visit from the fire department perfectly and we were so grateful! I feel completely comfortable with her in our home and know she is giving our 2 dogs the very best care. Thank you Dede - you truly are the best!
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
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.
Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters. They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine. Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well. Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well. We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
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!
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
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.
