Remote worker & aspiring writer looking to love on your pets while you’re gone!
This is the 2nd time Maureen and Ryan have sat for me and so glad they could come back! The 1st time I only had a cat, who they loved. Now I have a dog too and so glad all went well! Makes my going away so much easier knowing everything is taken care if at home! i would definitely recommend Maureen and Ryan as sitters🥰

High energy family to come and play with your pets!
It was an absolute pleasure to have Pam and Brian look after our cat, Ollie, and home while we were away. They are very kind, personable and down to earth people. We not only enjoyed having them sit but also enjoyed getting to know and meet with them. They are great at communicating and very reliable. They provided regular updates of Ollie and we could tell they truly cared about our cat. They also provided notes of their stay, detailing anytime Ollie was fed, had a hairball and whenever they were out/home etc, it was a very nice touch that we’ve never had from previous sits. They also left us a very unexpected and thoughtful gift on our return (thanks again!). We came home to a very clean flat (you couldn’t tell anyone had been here) and most importantly, a happy kitty. We could not have asked for more from Pam and Brian and anyone would be lucky to have them sit for them.

Mindfulness Coach Seeks Furry Companions While Working Remotely
Matt was terrific! Phoebe quickly adjusted to him and enjoyed his company. He was organized, neat and a pleasure to have sit in my home. His calm, zen-like personality instantly put Phoebe at ease and it was evident when I returned by how relaxed she was that she enjoyed herself spending time with him. I would definitely recommend Matt as a pet sitter in your home.

Responsible, tidy digital nomads.
Keith and Tiara are the best pet sitters we've ever had! They took great care of the house, the cats, and even helped us out with our new landscaping. They were terrific communicators - they sent me pics every day and a video of the house when they left. I really can't recommend them highly enough!

A Caring, Responsible, Mature Couple
Absolutely fantastic sitters! Our home and dog were extremely well cared for. These two made accommodations for us, like meeting in person before our departure, in order for our dog to feel comfortable. They sent frequent updates, left our house spotless, and even had a surprise for us upon our arrival. Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Our kitties were well cared for. Ary offered to stay until we returned when our flight was cancelled--this meant an extra day and a half--which we appreciated. Cons: I want to be fair. The kitties were fine, and they are our first priority. But we also care about our backyard birds, which we requested she care for. When we returned we found all the birdbaths were empty, the hummingbird feeders hadn't been filled with fresh nectar for days, and I'm not sure how much feeding actually got done because of the number of unopened bags of birdseed. Our previous house sitters sent a brief text about the kitties or a photo every few days while we were away. I admit we didn't specifically ask Ary to do this but we were surprised that the only communications from her related to a couple of questions about the house. I don't expect house sitters to be perfect housekeepers but I was dismayed to find dirty glasses in the cupboard. The aluminum cat food cans were not placed in the recycling container, but simply put in the trash. Wooden spoons that I asked not to be cleaned in the dishwasher were in the dishwasher. I had provided instructions on these points in the welcome guide. It was also dismaying that the phone call that Ary scheduled to meet us didn't happen because "time got away" from her. We waited over an hour for her call, which didn't come. Again, it's important to note that the kitties were fine when we got home, and Ary had washed the sheets and dishes.
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.
Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs! I highly recommend her!!
The best house and dog sitters you could ever ask for! They love and take care of our dogs like we do and do the same with our home. Thank you so much Ken and Jane! You are very much appreciated and loved by us, Jules and Lexi ❤️😇🐶
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!
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
Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them. Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him. He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here. So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation. Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.
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.
Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.
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.
