Cat and Dog sitter in Southern California with safety as my number one priority

Marla is a dream cat sitter. She asked all the pertinent questions about my cats care which made me feel comfortable that Lil was in good hands. Marla left my home spotless. She kept in touch regularly. A bonus - Marla watered my plants especially during the heat wave so I came home to a thriving patio. I would definitely ask Marla back again.

Jessica and Kelton are ideal pet and house sitters. They communicated promptly from the beginning of our interview process and throughout our vacation. Our two dogs were well cared for, and it absolutely ensured our peace of mind while we were away for three weeks. Upon returning home, the house was found exceptionally clean, probably cleaner than we had left it! They even offered to grocery shop us before our return. Their thoughtfulness stood out throughout the entire pet-sitting period. We are looking forward to having them back on our next adventure away!

Our first experience with Zeewoi was an excellent one and that is all thanks to the love and care that Tatyana showed to Poppy! Tatyana went above and beyond with daily updates and keeping tabs on our mail while we were gone. If given the opportunity, we will no doubt prioritize her for future requests.

We had to cancel our trip on the day it was due to begin when my mother became seriously ill and was admitted to the hospital. Mark and Rola were more than gracious regarding the situation, and I truly appreciate their understanding and flexibility while we were dealing with our emergency situation. I have no doubt that had the sit proceeded as planned that Mark and Rola would have been the same excellent caretakers of our house and dog as they have been on their previous sits with us. Thank you so much for your understanding Mark and Rola and I hope you'll consider sitting for us once we're able to travel again.

Lucia is a wonderful and warm person. We felt so fortunate to have her care for our pets and our home. She took excellent care of our pets and our dogs really loved her. We have a number of pots in our garden that require hand watering and Lucia kept them all alive! Haha! We highly recommend Lucia! You cannot go wrong with her!

Alexandria was great, she was very communicative, updated us regularly, our cats loved her. Even Caesar who is the most skittish of all our cats was really friendly with her and seemed to really like her. Our cats didn’t even bother to say hi when we came home, that is how I know they were well taken care of and spoiled. The house was clean, everything went fine. Would love to have her house sit for us! Thank you Alexandria.

Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!

From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!!
She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :)
Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. 
Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!

We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. 
We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida!
Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. 
We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. 
We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover

Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.

Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉

Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness 

Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health 

I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery

I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude

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!

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.

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed.  She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals.  My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. 
Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! 
Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.
