Experienced sitter for assignments in North America and Europe
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!

Enthusiastic Animal Lover
Don't know where to start - as I have so many great things to say about Kara! Kara is a beautiful person inside out! We connected on the first instance we interacted! She wrote back to my listing and on reading it, I got such a warm feeling about her instantly! On meeting her that was just validated! She made sure to come a day in advance to my home (all the way from South of France to Paris) adjusting my time schedule to meet me and my cats! She was extremely warm, kind and my entire family including my cats loved and bonded with her instantly! She just sends a radiance of positivity and ensures you are comfortable all along! While we were away she took care of my cats as if they her own! So loving and caring! She daily used to update me about the cats and also check on me if I am doing ok! What more can I ask for? On our arrival back, the cats were beautifully taken care off and the house very well cleaned and kept in great shape! Thank you Kara! I am so happy we crossed our paths! You are such a lovely person! I am sure we will meet again and do this again! For anyone who really wants their pets to be loved and taken care off in your absence - please get in touch with Kara! She is beautiful soul! Thank you Kara and I miss you! -Manasi

Kennedy and Nolan were fantastic! They were great about keeping us informed on how our pups were doing. They sent pictures and kept an open line of communication if questions arose. The house was perfectly maintained. We would welcome them back anytime!!!

Experienced, Responsible, Confident, Active, Non-smoking, Clean, Animal-Lover
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.

Senior dog adopter and foster animal extraordinaire! Passion to help all animals
Devon was the best pet sitter! Communication leading up to the visit as well as throughout was timely, easy, and efficient. He took excellent care of my over excited lab and kept me updated with fun pictures. He left my home clean and took extra cleaning measures when needed. I would have him sit again and highly recommend him.

Traveling Dog Lovers to Care for Your Pets and Home
Chad and Mandy are amazing house sitters. It’s obvious how much they love animals, and are comfortable and competent caring for Lucy and Tux. This was their second time here, and I’d have them back anytime! It was a month-long sit and they keep in good contact, took great care of the house and pets, and I came home to happy Lucy and Tux and the house tidy and clean.

Looking for new opportunities as we enter retirement
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.

Experienced, mature, animal lover.
This is the second time we've used Kari. She house sat for us last summer, and we were so pleased with her responsibility and care of our home and dog Asha, that we happily invited her back. She is very conscientious, sent us text updates with pictures of our sweet doggie, and left the house very clean and tidy. Asha loves her, which is the most important thing. We highly recommend Kari for any petsitting needs you may have in the future.

Pet loving, energetic retired pharmacist with house/petsitting experience!
Zoe was amazing. Any pet owner would be very lucky to have her not only care for their pet but their home as well. Honeybun (my cat) doesn’t warm up to just anyone but she warmed up to Zoe right away. And my house is cleaner than when I left it. Zoe fit right in to social activities on the Island and made the most of her stay here. I would love to have her back to Bowen anytime.
Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
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 🙂
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.
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.
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.
