We love all pets to bits!
Maral was a great pet sitter for Daisy while I was away on holoday for a week. Communication was easy and Daisy and Maral made fast friends. I appreciated the updates and openness to ask questions when needed. Thanks for your care, Maral!

Eliza and Sebastian were great. Bella was very happy and they left our apartment very clean. We would welcome them back any time!

Mother and daughter animal lovers to take care of your precious ones and home!
Solveig was an absolute pleasure to have around. She clearly loved the girls, was immaculately clean and tidy, very considerate and sent me regular updates and photos which is always a delight when you're away from the fur babies! We had brilliant chats, and I wouldn't hesitate to have her or her daughter back again. She even did some gardening for me which was greatly appreciated.

Icelandic/french couple Nature and animal lovers ❤️ Period: oct-dec
Asdis and Anton were excellent house sitters, they keep in touch before arriving and looked after all our animals very well. They left everything very clean and tidy. They were very self sufficient. We would definitely welcome them back another time.

Animal Loving Traveller in Search of a Warm Home & a Best Friend
Lindsay was a great sitter who was flexible with timings for the start and end of the sit and worked hard to accommodate our needs. She had good experience with large dogs like we have and we came back to a lovely clean house and a happy and calm dog. Lindsay has a calm nature which helped a lot with our slightly anxious dog. Would have her back anytime and highly recommend for others.

Caring and energetic woman will look after your pets and house.
It was a pleasure having Ewelina look after our home and pets whilst we were away for more than a month... she was very independent and yet totally attentive, contacting us immediately when one of the cats seemed unwell and off their usual food, giving him plain tuna instead to make sure he had eaten something! Thankfully he made a full recovery without needing attention from the vet... the house and garden was also well cared for, Ewelina even cleaned out the pond plants that grew very aggressively that month so the fish had more space for swimming and their food didn't get all caught up in the overgrowth! We would have no hesitation in welcoming Ewelina back to our home or recommending her for other sits.

Máni invites you to downtown Reykjavik to enjoy almost 24-hour daylight.
It was a pleasure having Kristofer housesit for us and look after our five babies (four cats and a rambunctious cockapoo!). He was kind enough arrive the day before we left and the day after we arrived to ensure the animals weren't left alone. We had time to have a lovely chat before he left. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending him for future sits.

Mom and 13 year old son who love animals, seeking to explore the world
Silla and her son are warm and friendly. Because we had to leave early in the morning, they stayed the previous night at a hotel nearby, which was very useful and helped ease our stress of a smooth handover. When we got home, they had washed the bed linens, which was a nice surprise. And our kitties looked well taken care of. We didn't receive a lot of updates about our kitties while we were away. What was less pleasant was the state of our flat. There were a dozen food stains on our sofa and also some on a desk. On the kitchen counter there was an empty soda can, and there was chewed chewing gum besides the sofa. If Silla and her son treat one's home with more respect, we would be able to recommend them. Unfortunately that was not our experience.

Looking for authentic pet lovers and reliable housesitters? Here we are!
My pets were treated well, and I believe they were in good care with Natalia and Dario.
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.
Charlie was again an outstanding sitter for us whilst we were away at a wedding. This is the second time having Charlie and although we have not met face to face we completely trust her with our home and of course our cat, Nala. Charlie left the house spotless which is amazing to come home to after a long day of travelling. She is reliable, good at communicating and trustworthy and we would not hesitate to recommend her enough. Thanks again Charlie, we hope you come back again and there might even be a dog next time😁
You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!
