Loving and experienced care for your fur babies
For a person like Mimi, you need to offer more than five stars as an option. Simply put, she was somewhere far above superb. Mimi quickly made a good friends with our chocolate Labrador retriever "Ranger." Her care and regular pictures of our pet, made the distance seem close. Her background in property management made us comfortable being gone for almost 2 weeks. Although we keep a well maintained home, Mimi improved it! The entire family is looking forward to the opportunity to have Mimi again. She went above and beyond every possible expectation. Highest recommendation (then triple that one!)

Hello there
This was a repeat sit for Shantoye; we love having her here! She does such a good job of caring for our two guinea pigs and two senior cats. She gives them a lot of love and attention, and sends us daily photo and video updates. She is very organized and makes planning the sit easy. We look forward to having her back!

Positive, responsible, and dependable dog lover you can count on. :)
Jessica watched Riley for us for 3 weeks and we would definitely have her back. She was very self sufficient and helpful doing some stuff for us while we were away. She was tidy and it was great to come home to a clean house after being away so long.

Fun, responsible, animal-loving couple ready to go anywhere & hang with pets :)
We had a fantastic experience with Kara and would recommend her wholeheartedly. The thing that made the biggest impression on us was that Kara was clearly genuinely happy to be spending time with our two cats, and we could see her real love for them and the results. We overlapped with Kara a bit at the end of her sit (she picked us up from the airport shuttle!). Sitting in our living room together, our cats both came over to nuzzle her and get pets - even with their parents in the room. They also seemed happier and more social for days after Kara's stay - more so then when we've left them with other sitters in the past. Kara also took great care of our car (even added air to the tires!), and our home - super clean and tidy just like we left it. We got to spend some time with her the night before we left as well and really enjoyed it - she's fun to hang out with and has a real warm, generous, kind and fun spirit.

Adventurous Travel Enthusiast Ready to Shower Your Fur Baby with Love ♥️
Mar exceeded our expectations. She sent us beautiful photos of our dog and kept in touch during this long stay. She is extremely reliable. She also went above and beyond to assist us with the house during a storm. The house was tidy, and Camila was happy upon our return. Mar even helped Camila to become friends with her “enemy” the pool cleaner. Highly recommend!

Compassionate & Responsible House and Pet Sitter
You truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter. My husband and I are in agreement that Caryn took better care of both our house and our dog than we do for either! She even brought my husbands half dead plants back to life (he will promptly kill them again)! She also stayed with us a few days while we were home (we had a couple different trips and came home in between) and was a great houseguest who blended in with the family . Our kids loved her and she was great with them too- helping them teach our old dog new tricks and listening to my son talk her ear off way past bed time. Our dog is older and clingy and can be very particular about many things and she handled them all. He had some health stuff at the time and she took care of it all during the month we were gone and largely off grid. Roo grew so attached he got sad when he noticed her packing her bags to leave. You’d be very lucky to have Caryn watching over your house and pets!!

Auntie Anne will care for your pets! Winter/Florida Summer/ Canada
My 2 chihuahuas are usually a handful and they both ended up getting sick while we were away. Anne took them to the vet on multiple occasions and cleaned up after them for many days while we were away. We were grateful to have Anne take care of them so diligently :)

The kind adventurous babysitter your pet never knew they needed
Nikki and George were excellent dog sitters. They were reliable, attentive, and showed genuine care for my pugs. Communication was seamless, and I received regular updates, including photos. I highly recommend Nikki and George for their fun-loving personalities, their reliability, attention to detail, and the peace of mind they provided. My pets were extremely well taken care of and my house was left immaculate. 5 stars. Nikki and George are amazing pet sitters who not only fulfilled their responsibilities but also went above and beyond when I had an A/C problem. Nikki and George’s commitment to taking care of my pugs and maintaining the house exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
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💖🎉
Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her! Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload. But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too. Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control. Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures. If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!
Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had. She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
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.
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
