Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Reviews From Pet sitter
I used to sit through Rover, but it always felt like a job. I had to accept sits I didn’t really want—like pets I wasn’t comfortable with or dates that didn’t work for me. If I said no, my rating would drop, and I’d lose future opportunities. It was stressful, and I started to lose my love for pet sitting.
Then I found Zeewoi. Here, I get to choose the pets I love, the dates that fit my schedule, and the places I want to explore. It’s not a job anymore—it’s a chance to spend time with animals I adore, and feel empowered to say no without fear. Zeewoi gave me back the joy of pet sitting.

I’m a writer who works remotely, but hotels and Airbnbs add up fast. Zeewoi lets me live in homes full-time while owners are away—not just caring for their pets, but keeping their house safe. Turns out, in a lot of states, leaving your house empty for more than 5 days can mess up your insurance.
It’s a trade that works. Owners avoid risks, and I get free places to write—like that month in a cabin where I finished my book with a snoozing Labrador at my feet. The pets keep me company, the house gives me space to focus, and nobody’s stressing about an empty home.

After retiring and losing our dog, my husband and I sold our house and started traveling full-time. We’re in our late 60s and can’t rush, so Zeewoi is perfect. We care for pets in exchange for free places to stay.
In 3 years, we’ve visited 46 states. We’ve stayed in homes, farms, and apartments, looking after dogs, cats, and even a llama. Owners get free pet care; we get to travel slowly and affordably. It’s meaningful—we help people (new parents, busy workers) and still feel connected to pets after losing ours.
No stress, no hotels. We’re healthier, happier, and forever grateful. Alaska and Hawaii, here we come!

We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!

Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.
Elizabeth
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)

What a lovely couple Tara and Tyler are. They had been in Scottsdale about six weeks before the house sit. and can to meet us. Rusé, our Toy Fox Terrier, fell in love with them immediately, and was in Tara’s arms within two minutes. We always like our sitters to arrive the day before we leave, take them out to dinner and get to know them. It was quite apparent from the videos and photos we received, that Rusé did not miss us. Tara and Tyler’s three grown up children joined them before Xmas-to Rusé’s delight as these were additional hands to throw his rubber bones and balls. The house was all clean and tidy, when we returned.. There is a strong possibility that Tara and Tyler will move to Arizona from Montana, with two of their children, recently moved to the area. They have already offered to look after Rusé in the future. We know he would love it. We cannot recommend Tyler and Tara higher enough, they were perfect House and Pet sitters
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Kim
Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month. I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did. Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why. Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her. I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love. Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her). She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants. We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup. Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet. Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs. I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁

Duncan was an excellent pet sitter and looked after our old girl Cookie really well.

I have had 4 pet sitters this year so far. And Liz was the best! She was wonderful with cats. She has an easy going manner and is very comfortable to be around. Very smart and she is a great communicator. She followed all directions and left the house spotless. I highly, highly, highly recommend her! I would have her again anytime!
Josepha
Jennifer was great and I would highly recommend her. Right from the start, Jennifer was clear and helpful in her communication, and she was very available to us throughout the stay via messaging. She sent pics of our fur babies regularly - without asking - which always makes us happy when we're away. And the biggest compliment I can give: when we came home, our pets were relaxed and happy, and no hidden cat messes to be found (we've had this happen with previous sitters a lot). I would love to have Jennifer stay at our home again in future.
Wanda
What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs! You can truly feel their love for animals. Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson! Our home was perfect when we got home. They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen. We highly recommend this couple! Jim & Wanda

We recently boarded our dog with Sophia at Fido, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we dropped off our pup, it was clear that Sophia genuinely loves and understands dogs. She made sure to ask all the right questions to get to know our dog’s needs, personality, and routines. During the stay, she kept us updated with photos and little notes, which really put our minds at ease. When we picked up our dog, he was happy, calm, and well taken care of. It’s such a relief to know we have a reliable, caring person to trust with our furry family member. Highly recommend Sophia for any pet boarding needs—she’s the best!
We LOVE Fido Pet Services! Sophia is the ultimate professional. She makes herself available and my sweet Elvis is ALWAYS happy to see her. Elvis stays with her several times a year for 2-3 weeks at a time. I highly recommend her services!
I am excited about fido and it's quality services. Sophia, the owner, is an adorable person that you can trust your pet. She really enjoy what she does and she does it with love and respect. The first time I left my dog Thelma with her for 10 days, the fact that she was regularly updating me with photos and videos about how thema was doing was quite a relief for me. When I returned i found a happy dog. A good sign is that when i have to take Thelma back to Sophia, thelma is happy to meet her! Once my dog accidentally had a toenail injury :( Sophia did the best that she could to take care of her and thank you so much Sophia for that. I definitely recommend fido and it's services, I strongly recommend Sophia.
Very responnsible care of my dog. MY Dog enjoyed walking, running, playing with other dogs too. Highly recommended for a short stay of your dog.
I used Fido once and I m going to use it again. You can absolutely rely on Sofia for your pets
Great services! My dog was cheerful and relaxed, during her stay. I will use fido’s services again.
Excellent service! Immediate response, kindness, professionalism and real love for animals. The photo with my dog is from the pet sitter who served me!
True love for our beautiful Animals. Each animal is taken care of according to its peculiarities. Well done Sophia 😀 …
We highly recommend Fido for many reasons: primarily for their love for animals, their reliability, their formality, their professionalism, their discretion, their smiles, their many years of experience, their responsibility. After every walk with our pups, we get an update with messages and videos. We have peace of mind because we know that our four-legged friends are in the best hands and having a good time.
Thank you very much for hosting my Malou. My only issue is that she's back in love with Ms. Euthymia, but I'll take it.

Omg!!! I love how they did it! They were so nice. They took very good care of my dog. We would like to come back to Athena for this shop. Thank you so much.
Pawsome is an exceptional dog grooming place where Sofia works wonders with our poodle, Louis. Sofia's expertise and attention to detail are truly impressive. She has a remarkable ability to make Louis feel comfortable and at ease. The prices are very reasonable, making it our go-to grooming spot every time. The salon is clean and welcoming, providing a safe environment for our pet. Sofia is always sweet, super friendly and attentive, always going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. We cannot imagine a better grooming experience for our beloved Louis!
BEST GROOMERS EVER! The two ladies that work here are the sweetest groomers who do a fantastic job! They groomed my two miniature schnauzers several times and every time they came out beautiful! If you need a groomer in Athens, come here! You will not be disappointed!
So polite and friendly, both of them. As for their technique, the photo says it all… Highly recommended!
Really nice place. The groomer is lovely with dogs and humans. She understood that I was a little nervous because it was the first time I was going there and she made sure I was comfortable leaving Theo there. And the most important part, Theo was happy when I picked him up. You know, dogs don’t lie 🐶 if they are happy means grooming was a good experience!
Hi i recently visited Pawsome for grooming for my dog Milo.Coming from UK i was a bit skeptical of leaving him but Sofia made us both feel very welcome from the start!We left him to visit Acropolis and on our way back although we were a bit late Sofia was very cool about it and Milo seemed quite comfortable in her presence which was great!Pet grooming in the UK is much more expensive so i was really pleased with the quality of the service in comparison with the price!we will definitely visit you again!!
While visiting family in Athens I had wanted to prepare my fur baby for his flight back home by getting a bath. Pawsome was able to accommodate us last minute. She also provided day care services so that my husband and I could visit the local sights. When we returned my Bailey was sleeping and the owner was right next to him petting him. It was the sweetest thing I have ever seen from a groomer. I could tell she loves what she does and more so has a love for the pets left in her care. I would 100% recommend Pawsome for grooming and daycare services. σας ευχαριστουμε πολυ ❤️
The best place in Athens to groom your dog!!! Nice people!! Many thanks!!
The girls are super friendly, for the first time our doggy doesn't show signs of distress after grooming, also the grooming itself was flawless, totally recommended.
The most professional groomer in Athens! We had set the appointment with this groomer at 7 in the evening... but due to personal circumstances we were running late and groomer agreed to wait for us.... by the time my husband got there she offered him a water ( that was so kind of her). Our dog breed-maltese is very small and easily get scared... but groomer was so lovely and caring with our dog... she gave her bath and nice spa treatment... cutted all matted fur and made a hairstyle and perfumed her at the end (it was very cute) even though we were late and it was waaay past her working hours she remained and took our appointment! Real professional, we could feel that this person don't do this only for a job, she cares about the animals! Best of the best! ❤
