Gerome and her partner Alse C were absolutely amazing! While I was away my cat Frank got a cut on his ear and they lovingly cared for him, took him to the vet, tended his wound, and made sure he could eat enough while wearing his neck cone. They went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and improving. They also left my house spotless! They are wonderful to communicate with and truly care for animals. I couldn't recommend them higher!

Julie came to my house for one night on her way home from Arizona. Turns out I didn't go away that night and invited her to stay anyway. Julie is lovely. She and Zorro bonded immediately and she was very considerate and respectful during her stay at my home. This was my first experience with a zeewoi so she gave me a lot of feedback on what to expect and what to look out for when using the service. She's experienced, great with animals, well organized and trustworthy. She is welcome back to my home any time!

Celeste was an amazing guest who treated our home with care and respect. She took Guapo on his daily walks, played with him, and made sure he was happy and well-exercised. She left our home even better than she found it, followed all our instructions perfectly, and adapted easily to last-minute changes. Celeste is welcome back anytime to dogsit Guapo. Two paws up!

We can't think of better sitters than CJ and Allie. They have sat for us several times, and each time providing excellent care for Moby and Bella, and our home. Their reliability and attention to detail give us complete peace of mind when we are away. Hard to tell who is more excited about CJ and Allie staying at house, us or Moby/Bella!

Candy came to take care of our pups with her two kids. They were absolutely amazing! The dogs were extremely well cared for and the house was in fantastic condition when we got back. We couldn’t have asked for a better sit. We would have them back in a heartbeat. Thank you, Candy!

Louis and Natalia were great. Louis checked in with me every few days with pictures and updates. He took Roux to a park daily to play fetch. I was able to meet Louis and Natalia prior to the sit and was very comfortable with both of them and knew Roux was in good hands. Louis also took good care of my many potted plants which I know was a lot of work. I would strongly recommend Louis and Natalia to others.

Sage took great care of my pets during her stay, ensuring they were fed, let outside for potty breaks, and receiving plenty of playtime and cuddles. She followed the specific instructions and routines I had set for each of my pets, and they warmed up to her, showing that they adored her company. Sage communicated with me daily, which was reassuring. She sent daily photos, sometimes even videos or multiple photos, which made me feel confident that my pets were in good hands. Given the excellent care she provided to my pets, I'm overall satisfied with Sage's services. I would consider hiring her again in the future and would also recommend her to others looking for a pet-sitter.

Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Janis and her husband Dan were beyond phenomenal! Communication was great leading up to their arrival, especially with coordinating arrival and departure times. And during the sit, I got lots of picture updates throughout of how Isabel was doing. I could tell from the pictures how comfortable and happy my dog was hanging out with Janis and Dan and getting all the pets and attention. Coming home, everything was left so clean and organized. I definitely recommend them as pet sitters as they clearly took such good care of both my pup and my home.

Abby was truly the best pet sitter we've ever had. We were never concerned or worried about the care of our pups and home. All the neighbors have told me that the dogs looked happy on the many walks. She sent videos of photos about every other day. We hope that Abby will stay in our home next summer as well. Abby is very highly recommended by our whole family, including the dogs!!!

Not only did Krista take great care of our cat while we were away, she left the house cleaner than she found it. She also kept in touch with occasional photos and videos of kitty antics, which gave me peace of mind that the cat was well-cared for. We definitely recommend her as a house and pet sitter and would ask her again in the future!

Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.

We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs.

From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands.

Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! 

We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. 

Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

Kelly took excellent care of my cats, Bertie and Jewel. She reported that nervous and shy Jewel even licked her hand! She sent occasional photos and updates about the cats, which I really appreciated, and she emailed/texted me when there were questions. At the end of her stay, Kelly and I had a conversation that was helpful to me, as this was my first zeewoi experience, and I'm still learning how to best welcome sitters to my cats and house. She gave me some excellent ideas about how to streamline the "welcome guide" I leave for folks. I really appreciate her insight as an experienced pet- and house-sitter. It's reassuring to know that she places a priority on pet health and happiness!

David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens.  Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us.  He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.

Absolutely Incredible....
I will not lie, I was hesitant because David did not have any pet sits before this one (gotta start somewhere) but because he did the background check I decided to contact him. We had a great phone conversation and the decision was made. He came to my house the night before I was leaving to learn all the ins and outs of taking care of my fur babies and then put himself up in a hotel for the night before the sit date. The next day he came over in the morning to learn a few more details before I left. I could not have chosen a better house sitter for my 2nd house sit . David communicated with me daily, sent pictures and we spoke via facetime. My little guy was feeling sick when David started and with diligence, love and kindness he was able to get my little guy eating again and feeling better. I would invite David back into my home over and over again but I am pretty sure he is going to be in high demand. Thank you David for everything!
