Iowa City local seeking close by housesitting gigs with great dogs!
Charlie was our first zeewoi petsitter, and he was amazing! He's a very personable and friendly person who obviously cares greatly for animals. We were gone for almost 2 months, so this was a long sit. He took care of our two cats and dog. Charlie sent us TONS of updates and photos and the animals always looked happy and well cared for. He left the house tidy and promptly brought up any concerns regarding the animals or household issues. We had a little health scare with one of the cats while we Charlie was there, and he handled the situation perfectly - he told us about it right away and brought the cat to the vet. Don't hesitate to use Charlie as a pet/house sitter. The animals miss him already!

We are so beyond pleased with Rebecca and her husband’s care for our home and our fur family! We came home to happy and well cared for animals, and our home was spotless. Rebecca was communicative throughout her stay, sending us pictures and updates. They are welcome back any time!

Let me help you get away for awhile. I’d love to be your pets friends
Amanda was awesome and very communicative. Our dogs were well taken care of and really enjoyed having her there! We felt so much relief having her with them and the house. Thanks so much, Amanda. We would have her stay again if she was available! :)

University Students with Veterinary Experience for Reliable Pet Sitting
Mengcheng and Ilya were fantastic sitters! They took wonderful care of my apartment and my cat Margot. I received daily updates, they left my place spotless, and also left/replaced groceries! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, reliable sitter. :)

Past house sitters have found my dog Wilbur to be enjoyable to care for, however I recognize that not all pets and humans bond. I sensed that Brian did not really spend much time engaging with my dog. Wilbur had a sore eye filled with matter when I returned and Brian either didn’t notice or didn’t care to inform me of this. I had asked my son to come over for the final feeding/potty of Wilbur so Brian could leave early due to poor weather. My son misunderstood and came over a day early and notified me of Wilburs eye problem. Despite being there another day Brian did not inform me of the eye problem. The house had sticky dirty countertops in the kitchen and bathroom - linens were not laundered or changed out. Brian left items in the house, so overall not a great sit.

Trusted, Responsible Sitter Looking for Home/Pet(s) to Care for!
Katie helped make sure my house was taken care of during the winter, while I traveled. Thank you, Katie!
Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend
I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day. I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
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!
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
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.
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:)
