We cannot recommend Roz & Les highly enough. They were just brilliant with our dogs. The house was left immaculate. They sent us photos of the dogs each day and kept us updated via text. We could not have asked for more and are really grateful we met them.

Amelia was everything you can ask for in a sitter- reliable, friendly, great communicator and most importantly the cats loved her. She managed to give one of my cats her daily medication without any problems at all. I highly recommend Amelia as a sitter- you won’t be disappointed.

Sonia and her friend came to Look after my brood of animals for 5 days and they were absolutely lovely. She communicated well with me beforehand and made sure she arrived before I left for my trip so we could meet in person and do a handover. My 3 dogs and old cat were well cared for while I was away and they sent photos and an update every day to ease my mind. When I returned the house was perfectly clean and tidy and they had left a little gift for me. I would recommend Sonia to anyone.

Zeewoi… what does that mean? That means you leave your pets and house in the capable hands of someone you trust .That trust for us was developed from looking at past reviews. We chatted to Eugene and Patience before the sit. Patience was due to go back home for the imminent arrival of a grandchild, so it was agreed that Eugene would come alone. We felt comfortable with the chat and agreed the sit. Eugene arrived the day before (Saturday 2nd March) and we had a meal together. We showed him the workings of the house and the routine for the cats. We left the next morning (Sunday 3rd March) for a well earned holiday after 2 1/2 years working on our house. We had a couple of what’s app messages over the next couple of days about the cats, and I asked had he been able to get out and about a bit in the local area. He said he had been to Bordeaux the day before (Thursday 7th March) as recommended by us. We knew he was gone around 9 hours because our external security cameras picked up and recorded him leaving around 8 and returning around 5 which we picked up the next day (Friday 8th March). What we then realised was that there was someone else in the car with him on his return. Also on that day we saw both Eugene and another man leave the house on bikes. In hindsight it did seem strange to us when he arrived that there were 2 bikes on the back of his car. Also some bedding was on show in the back of his car, and knowing he was returning to friends where he came from he could have left a bike and bedding there. We immediately contacted Eugene who was totally gobsmacked that we had discovered his deceit. My question was what does “definitely/absolutely no visitors to the house” which is stated in our profile and welcome pack did he not understand! Eugene then said he is his brother in law but then said he was a mate 🤨 during the conversation who he had picked up in Bordeaux and he would only be staying a couple of days!!! We asked where he was sleeping, Eugene said in our spare bedroom as he had some spare bedding!!! Again in our details it states there is only one en-suite bedroom available to the sitter. We told him in no uncertain terms to get the person (in whatever capacity he was there for) out of our property immediately, only to be told by Eugene that’s rather extreme! Errr no, what was extreme was that he thought he could get away with it not telling us the truth! We also said he should go as well once we sorted out where the cats could go. He advised us later his ‘visitor’ had gone and would we like him to stay on till we were due to return home, he apologised for the ‘stuff up’. No what he realised was that he had been caught out! The answer was a definite no and our friends would be coming by in the morning to take the cats to the cattery (which cost us a lot of money) and collect his keys. Eugene had clearly planned this visit in spite of clear directions that no visitors were allowed. Instead of having a break a few thousand miles away, we had two days ruined whilst sorting out this mess. Eugene’s deceit and arrogance that he could get away with this was beyond belief. I guess our question is how many other people who have had these sitters have had other people brought in by him without their knowledge. It’s difficult enough handing over your home to a stranger who you have only spoken to once on video, but to have total strangers come in without permission is like being violated. Eugene and Patience are simply not Zeewoi he abused our trust.

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!

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💖🎉

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.

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!

Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!

We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs.  We were very happy they accepted.  A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned.  So, we posted more dates on zeewoi.  To our happy surprise,  Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted.   This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs.

We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits.  They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting.  D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals.  This is most important for my wife and I.  We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals.  

Communication was excellent.  The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us.  We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos.  Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us.  D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations.  Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them.  Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare.  We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away.  The dogs definitely love being around D&J.


Homecare:  We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned.  It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better!  D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden.  It is very big and takes hours to mow.  So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. 

Our dogs are so very important to us.  When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world.  We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. 

We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us.  They are fantastic!

Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason!

-Allen and Izabela

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.

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.

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😁
