Sammy
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Lover of travel and pets
Sammy is a fantastic house and pet sitter. This was our first experience with TH and we are thrilled! Sammy was very communicative, focused and loved our dogs. Oskar and Lily had the time of their loves with her. They immediately bonded, and we received daily picture updates on their activities. We felt completely at ease around her despite giving up our house to a total stranger! We can highly recommend Sammy. She even left us with some homemade macaroons upon our return, and the house was spotless. We would gladly welcome her back anytime.

Love animals and adventure!
Rhonda was a great house and pet sitter. Would definitely have her back again if she made her way to Colorado.
Tonja
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Animal Lovers with Experience to Care for Wide Variety of Pets
Tonja & Keith were our first sitters using this service in our home. To say they did a great job would be a disservice...they were BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL! My husband and I are so grateful for their attention to detail, updates, cleanliness of our home (truly spotless when we arrived home), going ABOVE & BEYOND what we expected and asked for, and lastly, truly their kindness and treating our home and pup like their own. They truly feel like new friends in our lives & we hope to host them again. Thank you Tonja & Keith for everything you did while we were away and giving us such peace of mind & confidence with who was in our home & how you loved our pup with everything we asked of them (which was a lot for our big boy!). Beyond 5 stars!!
Kemi
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Caring, responsible, and happy to look after your home and pets.
Let me start by saying that I have never approved a zeewoi with children to petsit and was concerned about doing so. After a FaceTime chat with Kemi I decided to give it a chance. As a veterinarian and despite having teenagers, I was concerned about having small children in my non child proofed home with animals they do not know. The first day seemed difficult for Kemi and family as they adjusted to my dogs, who are excellent with children, but I do not think they were accustomed to a young, large breed dog. They seemed concerned, confused and critical of normal behaviors for a Golden Retriever… like trying to eat the other dogs food. When we spoke one Facetime I let Kemi know my Cavalier sleeps in bed with me, but the night of her arrival she made it clear that would not be possible for her as she can not sleep with an animal and wanted to know the alternative. I gave her permission to have him sleep in his crate, which he isn’t used to and was disappointing. Over the 10 days they were with the dogs, they gradually became more comfortable with them and their routine. Kemi is extremely meticulous about following the welcome letter exactly and had many questions about that. There were some strange things though - like being sent photos of my small dog’s poop on my floor… when I asked if they left him in his crate (as he always should be when not home) I was told her child forgot to latch the crate door so he was free in the house (something he is never allowed) and he also was not given the opportunity to poop outside (as it was communicated he always must after eating) before leaving him. I also repeatedly asked for him not to be walked on a leash outside (she sent photos of her children with him outside on a leash) because he is trained on the invisible fence, but Kemi was too nervous to do that. They let my large dog out without a leash with the invisible fence though…. We came home to find our home just as clean as we left it - Kemi even removed and laundered the bedding before leaving our home. They were also really good about picking up the poop in the yard, which was nice and were very respectful about my home and belongings.
Leah
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Respectful, attentive, loving family of 4, frequently pet sits at home.
Leah and her family did a great job taking care of our pets and house. Everything was so clean when we came home and the dogs were very relaxed. Leah communicated throughout the sit and made it easy to be away. I would gladly have them sit for us again.
Sarah
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Sarah’s Lovey Dovey Pet Care
Sarah arrived on time and was very personable. She was great with our dogs and when we returned our dogs were clearly happy. This morning (day after she left) my dogs in the morning went to the room she was staying in to look for her and she wasn't there. That tells me that they really enjoyed her time here. Overall I would recommend Sarah to anyone that wants someone to be attentive to their pets and vacation with a piece of mind.
Joy
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Welcome, all creatures, great and small!
Joy and Brandon were excellent sitters! We had a video call before the sit to answer any questions, and text messages with photos while we were away. They left the house nice and tidy, and all of our pets were happy as could be. We would love to have them back any time! ( I think they could even tend to my bees in a pinch...they have beekeeping experience.)
Julie
West River Oaks, Louisiana
Mature and Dependable, Loves Pets and Plants
I could not be happier with Julie & Aaron. I found my home spic and span! My cat was well loved and had no complaints. I would highly recommend.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Wendy & Rob
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.

Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!
Joelle
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!!
Suzie
Evan and Maria were fabulous. They are experienced sitters and it shows in their independence. They sent regular updates, but not too regular and were totally self sufficient. Most importantly both the house and dog were perfect when we returned home.
Amanda
Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!
Casey
Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
Julianne
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!

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

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.
Anne
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
