Loreta an Braian have been amazing from the moment the met our boys, the boys were crazy for them. Could get enough kisses and hugs from Braian and Loretta and vice versa! They can send us regulars updates and photos and videos of their adventures with Hudson and Murphy and also pics of them cuddle up on the sofa with the boys on the chilly nights. We could not recommend Loreta and Braian more highly for anyone else who is looking for housesitters that will go that bit extra to ensure your animals are loved and cared for while you are away! 5Star plus rating definitely!!

I immediately knew Alice would be great with Jackie Daytona, and I was right! JD liked her from the moment we met outside and wouldn’t leave her alone during our meet and greet. She has a great calm energy with pets (and people!) that I saw immediately. Alice was patient and loving with her from the get-go, she gave our cat Shagwell due respect and took great care of him as well. She sent photos every day, checked in and took great care of the house. Jackie has leash aggression issues – Alice understood and I felt Jackie was safe with her. She also made sure sure Jackie got her medication. I have 0 complaints about Alice, and would recommend her without hesitation! Get her if you can!

Barry & Sally-Anne have been amazing! We knew after the first video call with them we could trust in leaving our pets and home with them. And we weren’t wrong. We left for our wedding in Italy feeling so comfortable knowing our two fur boys and home were in safe hands. We had lovely pictures and updates from them during our time away. And came back to an even more tidier home than we left them. They went above and beyond by washing towels and bedding for us and leaving us fresh milk and bread and a wedding gift for on our return! We hope they will come stay again soon as they are more than welcome too 🤗

I am extremely grateful to Sandra and Roger for caring for Mo for the five weeks I was overseas. Mo was well cared for, walked well,groomed etc..I returned to my home clean and tidy..although many things moved, minor irritation: My only concern is my neighbors on both sides actually wonderd wether Mo was actually here whist I was away,they didn’t see or hear him . A lot of information is requested beforehand on routine,feeding habits etc.. I know the sitters have to adapt to their own routine to suit them,but a lot of previous routine was significantly changed.Where M0 was allowed to go..the time he spent locked outside ,where and when he was fed and later told changed diet to introduce raw mince. We are back to our normal routine and Mo is happy 🐶❤️ Please, this is comment , not negative feedback .

I've always been lucky with my sitters through zeewoi, and this time was no exception. George, Larissa and their four lovely children were the absolute perfection in house guests and I cannot praise this wonderful family too highly. 

They did all the usual things you'd expect, gave my beautiful girls all the love and care I could wish, walked them at least once every day despite the best the British weather could throw at them, and sent me regular updates and photos so I could see how much love they were getting. 

They also left the house cleaner and tidier than I think I've ever seen it! I'm a bit worried that all they did for the week was walk and play with the dogs and then clean the house - I'm beyond grateful, the place looks amazing!

They really are the very nicest people too, George has a hilarious sense of humour (thanks for the funny texts George!) and Larissa is calm, kind and an inspiration as a mother. 

I really can't wait to have them back to look after the girls again in the summer and wish the whole family a wonderful trip until then. 

If they come and house sit for you then you are in for a real treat!

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!

I don’t think we could’ve picked a better sitter than Joe! This was our first time using this website/app, and I can only hope that all of our future sitters will be amazing as he was! 

He was kind, respectful, attentive, extremely clean, (seriously I think our house was cleaner than when we left for vacation), and took such amazing care of our two dogs! 
He arrived early on the day of our departure so he could meet our dogs and get a detailed run down of their routine. Both of our dogs warmed up to him immediately! :)

One of our pups sometimes has the tendency to be reactive towards other dogs on leash. He handled him so effortlessly and with such compassion, it really put any worries I might’ve had aside. 

While we were away he sent little updates and pictures of the adventures they went on: farmers markets, car rides, long walks, and lots of pets and cuddles. After he left both of our dogs sat out side his room and just looked so sad that their new friend Joe had gone away. 

I honestly can’t recommend Joe enough! If you are looking for someone, your search should end here!

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!

Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.

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.

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.

Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly.  We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house.  Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues.  We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs.  Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.

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.

Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used.  My husky LOVES her.  Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly.  She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia.  She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. 
Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)
