Exploring and looking for new furry friends to cuddle along the way!
We would highly recommend Annie and her family to house sit! We left on a cruise for a week with no phone access. Annie updated us daily via email with photos. Annie and her family took great care of our home and 3 pets (Boxer, Frenchie & and Cat). She even left us a home cooked meal when we came back from vacation and a nice clean home. We were fortunate to have Annie and her family sit our home and pets. Thanks, Annie! Dean and Amy.

Mature, reliable, friendly, responsible person who adores animals
We loved having Brad as our sitter! He was super communicative and responsive. He asked great questions and sent us pics and updates about our dog Apollo. He arrived and departed when he said he would and it seems like Apollo had a grand old time. We would love to have him back!

Environmental Educator
Abhaya was an exceptional pet sitter for my cat Athena. She is experienced, friendly, and a great communicator. Abhaya sent pictures and updates every day and it was evident she played and cuddled with Athena. When I returned it was evident that Athena was very emotionally and physically well cared for. Abhaya left the house clean, tidy and in perfect shape. I will definitely use Abhaya every time she is available when I travel. Abhaya is a trustworthy pet-sitter and a very kind person. I recommend her most highly.

Friendly non-smoking clean couple to love your precious pets& care for your home
Another great sit! No pets this is time, just our house. They took care of everything while we were away on an extended trip. The yard, exterior living spaces and interior spaces were so clean, it was like walking into a new house. They texted us re: issues that arise that they worked around, but wanted us to be aware. We trust them to take care of our home as we would and they deliver!

Loving couple wants to care for your loved space and furry family members
This is the second time that the lovely Katie and David have looked after our two cocker Spaniels (‘The Boys’) for us. We felt so fortunate that they were able to be here for our three week holiday - we knew that the boys would be looked after well. Katie and David communicate brilliantly, are reliable and empathetic. They checked in with us where appropriate about the boys’ care while we were away and also sent fabulous photos which were reassuring and often humorous! They looked after our home well and enabled us to really relax, confident that all was well. Our neighbours even commented on their friendliness and how well behaved the boys were with them. For this visit Katie and David used our car. This worked especially well as they took the boys for some great adventures and it enabled them to enjoy where we live more widely too. Needless to say - we absolutely trusted them to take care of our car! Huge thanks go from us to them both. If you are choosing pet sitters, Katie and David come with our full recommendation.

Retired couple that loves all animals!
Fred and Lisa were awesome. We face timed prior to the sit so that we would both get comfortable with each other. This was Fred's great suggestion. Fred and Lisa came into town the night before to accommodate our early departure the next day. They came over in the morning so we could all meet and go over the dogs schedule and needs as well as where things were in the house. Fred and Lisa pet, hugged and loved on all 3 of the dogs before we left. It was apparent that they loved dogs. We felt very comfortable leaving. Each morning we received a picture of the kids and a note. When we returned home, everything was in perfect order just as we left it. This was my first zeewoi experience and it could not have been better. I highly suggest having Fred and Lisa care for your kids. My hope is that Fred and Lisa are available some other time we need to go away!

Caring, clean, and capable
Chikako was a great cat and house sitter! She sent us photos of our kitty and left the house beautiful and tidy. She was communicative, organized, and neat. We are looking forward to the time when she can cat/house sit for us again. Highly recommend!

Dependable, Animal-Loving, Online Professional, & Non-smoking
Jennifer was a joy to work with! She stayed with my two 80 pound shepherd puppies and gave them lots of walks, playtime, and ear scratches. She learned their schedule and helped keep it while we traveled. The communication and coordination between us was never an issue. Jennifer sent lots of pictures with the puppies showing them on walks and playtime. After a full day of travel, I wasn’t looking forward to sweeping up the piles of puppy hair I was expecting when I returned. When I looked around, hardly a hair was in sight! Thanks so much to Jennifer for making my return so welcoming. So happy I got to meet her and would definitely invite her to come back and sit again.

Always looking for work/life balance & experiencing new places brings life
Esta is an excellent sitter and great communicator. She is a real trooper as she had to deal with power outages and downed trees. This was our first experience with the company and it couldn’t have been better for us.
I felt that my dogs were in good hands with Billy & Cherice - both pups seemed happy and well cared for when I returned from my 3-week trip. My home was also clean and tidy. This was my first experience using an unknown sitter and I felt nervous to leave my dogs for so long while traveling abroad. If they were to stay again I would request more regular photo updates, but otherwise was very happy with Billy and Cherice's pet and home care.
Kelly was a wonderful pet sitter and house sitter! Our dog Cooper adored her. She sent us pictures several times a day and he was always snuggling with her. She kept in touch with us regularly. We have never left our baby before and we were anxious about it but we ended up feeling totally comfortable with Cooper in Kelly’s care. She also kept our potted plants alive during a heat wave and took great care of the house. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.
I have nothing but great things to say about Jill! She’s a wonderful sitter and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her capable hands while I was out of the country. She was thorough in making sure she knew exactly what each pet needed, had excellent communication, and provided me with daily updates. I came home to a house that was even tidier and more organized than when I left and two very loved pets. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a kind, caring, consistent pet sitter. Thank you so much Jill!!!
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!
We were lucky to have Andrea back for another sit with our elderly dog and feral cat. She has been wonderful both in the past and on this last sit for a month! We trust her implicitly and are always at ease that our pets will have the most kind and careful attention. She is excellent with videos and communication and very clean and tidy. Again we feel lucky to have found her, and feel she would be a great sitter for any pets!
Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!
Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!
Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !! She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !
