We’d love to have Teresa and Stephen back. They came the evening before. We spent time together walking our dogs, playing fetch, and enjoyed great conversation over dinner. They took great care of Chewie, Solo, and our home. We appreciate the communication, photos, and care they provided. We highly recommend this lovely couple.

Pet Loving Travelers
Cindy was amazing with our two cats - she sent us videos and photos every day and was attentive to their behavior (such as Meg tending to steal Liz’s food and Liz’s peculiarity about not eating in the same spot twice)! As a house guest, she was easy to host and left the house in amazing condition. I do hope she had a good time on her petsitting holiday as we did on our trip, knowing our pets had the company of a loving & caring individual. This was our first experience with housesitting and I cannot imagine a better start to this journey than we had with Cindy!

Caring, reliable, trustworthy pet whisperer
I didn’t get the opportunity to meet Kelli and Warren, but after being back just a couple of days I’ve already had a few neighbors mention to me how warm, personable and kind they are! Based on our video chats, texts, and the care provided I definitely agree. If Kelli and Warren apply for a sit at your home, I couldn’t recommend them more. Clear and consistent communication, friendly, very caring for pets. I returned to a very clean home with clear info on what had been done etc. Here comes the over and above part. As a housesitter on this site as well as a pet parent, I’ve had good and not so good experiences in other peoples homes. I usually feel really good about the exchange I offer, between my home, the location, and what a sweet dog I have, (although of course I’m biased.) But this time was a bit of a different story. Mid way through the sit I told Kelli I was going to extend my trip, and asked what time she’d be leaving so I could post for the additional days and coordinate with my boyfriend to clean and prepare for next sitter. Kelli instead offered to stay through the extension which made things easy! Then, a few hours later texts me “btw, we’ve been seeing some roaches” I’m of course mortified. I had seen some in my apartment previously and management had sent someone to spray and I thought it was all taken care of. Turns out that wasn’t the case, they were back with a vengeance and suddenly alongside Nico updates I was receiving roach updates as well. I told Kelli they could end the sit early, my bf could handle my dog and I would totally understand, but they opted to stay. Maintenance came to spray again while I was gone, and now I’m back and they are doing a multi unit attack, but what a nightmare! Kelli and Warren cleaned, took all of the dishes out of the cabinets to wash them, bought traps and just went over and above. TLDR: Great housesitters, can adapt in crisis, go over and above, and take dog great photos! 100/10 can recommend. Hopefully you still had some good times in Austin, and know that many of my neighbors would love to have y’all return to Austin just to hang out!

We are energetic, early risers, enjoy taking walks and spending time with pets.
Donna and Ronnie communicated their ETA and arrived on time. Sawyer and Betsy enjoyed being cared for by Donna and Ronnie. They communicated I received a package and brought it inside. They also accommodated a request to bring in my orchids, I had forgotten to bring them back in after watering. The house was exactly as I had left it, plus linens and towels had been washed, which is greatly appreciated! It was a pleasure having Donna and Ronnie pet/house sit.
Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again 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!
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
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!
We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs. We were very happy they accepted. A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned. So, we posted more dates on zeewoi. To our happy surprise, Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted. This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs. We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits. They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting. D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals. This is most important for my wife and I. We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals. Communication was excellent. The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us. We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos. Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us. D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations. Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them. Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare. We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away. The dogs definitely love being around D&J. Homecare: We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned. It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better! D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden. It is very big and takes hours to mow. So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. Our dogs are so very important to us. When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world. We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us. They are fantastic! Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason! -Allen and Izabela
Susan and Jim were amazing sitters for my 2 boys whilst I went to Portugal to play golf. Communication we had prior to the sit was excellent, and we were able to discuss the dogs in detail. They arrived the day before I was due to leave so we were able to have a good handover. They really looked after the dogs well, and my house was immaculate when I returned. I can't recommend them highly enough, just wished they lived in the UK so I could use them on a regular basis. Thank you Susan and Jim xx
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.
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.
