Joyce
La Fox, Illinois
Responsible, non-smoking online educator ready to make some new furriends!
Joyce came across as thoughtful and organized when we "met" on a video chat, and I knew right away she would be a reliable pet and house sitter. Everything worked out great... our animals (cat and chickens) were well taken care of, and our house was exactly as we left it.
Matthew
La Fox, Illinois
Trustworthy, responsible, and experienced couple available to care for your pets
We were able to spend a little time with Heather and Matt before we left, and knew they would treat our house and animals with care and respect. Their experience showed in the questions they asked. Communication and expectations were understood before we left, and we came home to happy pets and a clean house. In addition, they’re just wonderful, interesting people. We would have them again anytime!
Cindy Jo
La Fox, Illinois
Five star house sitter for the past seven years across this nation and beyond!
Cindy was great! She’s pretty easygoing and the dog a really liked her. We would definitely recommend her.
Jerry
La Fox, Illinois
Responsible & Reliable "Seasoned" Couple Joyfully Pet & Housesit Across USA!
What a joy and an honor it was to have Phyllis and Jerry care for my home and my pets. I could write an epistle to describe in detail how much they did and how well they accomplished each responsibility. Our correspondence began many months ahead of my posted dates. Throughout this time, we stayed connected, and as we got closer, we shared more details about my home and care for the pets. Response time was prompt, friendly and courteous. They were incredibly flexible and understanding when I had to adjust my flight time and date. They arrived early on my departure day so we could have time for orientation, lunch, and conversation. Phyllis and Jerry were meticulous in following the instructions I left for cat and home care. They were dedicated to assuring me that things at home were going well by sending pictures of the cats included with special vignettes. They were respectful of my home and took great care of everything as if it were their own. For example, when the hose unexpectedly burst in the back yard on a hot day, they carried water in a bucket to my young Arbor Vitae trees. They are the kind of people who go the “extra mile” based on their high values and elevated work ethics. When I returned home, everything was glistening and spotless. The carpets had been vacuumed, the laundry completed, the dishwasher and waste baskets emptied, the stove shined, and the kitty litter was scooped and cleaned. My fur babies were happy and relaxed, an indication that they had excellent care while I was away. A delightful surprise was the colorful Autumn gift basket and note they left on the counter. I highly recommend Phyllis and Jerry in every way. They exceeded my expectations and fulfilled every task. They are friendly, enthusiastic, and fun to be around, and both have had a wide variety of experiences that translate into good common sense and wise decisions. It was truly my privilege to have the opportunity to meet them and to benefit from all they had to offer me, my home, and my cats.
Hodan
La Fox, Illinois
Full Time Cat Lovers
Hodan and Sami continue to be great guests in our home and caretakers of our cats! We’ve had them stay before and they continue to be a pleasure. Our cats were well taken care of and Sami does a fantastic job at keeping us updated. He even checked in to make sure that the food machines were full and double checked to make sure that the right food was used to refill them. They were also flexible with our schedule as our flight was cancelled and we had to arrive the next day. To make sure our cats were well taken care of, they stayed longer to keep the cats company. We’d recommend Hodan and Sami to anyone who wants to ensure a great stay!
Greg
La Fox, Illinois
Dog and cat lover with high degree of flexibility and willingness to travel.
I couldn't be happier with my experience of Greg as a Housesitter. He was exceptionally easy to communicate with from the start, which made the entire process stress-free. Every day, he dedicated extra time to play with my cats, ensuring each one received individual attention. It was clear that he genuinely cared for them, as they seemed happy and well-cared-for upon my return. Additionally, he maintained a very clean space and left my home in great condition. I highly recommend him for any pet-sitting needs; his commitment and care truly made a difference!
Theresa
La Fox, Illinois
Playful, outdoorsy and chill'n - respectful & reliable - exploring western US.
Theresa was great at communicating, asking for clarification when it was needed and for keeping our home in good shape. She sent photos of our cats, & spoke lovingly about them. You'd be lucky to have her at your home!
Suzanne
La Fox, Illinois
Global sitter who quit job, sold house, & gave away my stuff to travel the world
Suzanne is the most organized sitter we have encountered through zeewoi. She actually had a list of 30 well thought out questions for us during our first FaceTime call. She excelled at remaining in communication with us both before and during our sit. Meeting her was like meeting a ray of sunshine. She immediately set out to bond with JD and Leilani from the first moment she met them. Her daily videos were greatly appreciated. It was clear to us that our fur babies were in great hands. When the second leg of our return trip was delayed due to weather which caused the airline to rebook our last leg until the next morning she graciously altered her own plans to accommodate the change in our original plans. She dropped us off at the airport and picked us up upon our return. Suzanne takes pride in her pet sitting and is truly a gem. Your pets will be well cared for. We highly recommend Suzanne.
Mia
La Fox, Illinois
Honest, enthusiastic work online girl ready to make your pet comfortable & happy
This was Mia's second time housesitting for us and it went as perfectly as the first time. Mia is fantastic and took such good care of our dogs. They loved their long, off-leash hikes and plentiful cuddles. I swear they are all sad that Mia has left.
Naomi

Pup Lover Ready to love your home too!
Naomi took really good care of Beck!

Alessia
Claire's performance as a house sitter surpassed all expectations, making her an absolute gem in the world of home and pet care. She demonstrated exceptional courtesy and communicated with remarkable clarity and promptness, keeping me informed every step of the way. Punctuality and reliability are hallmarks of Claire's service. She arrived exactly when promised and was fully prepared to manage all the responsibilities we discussed. Her proactive approach and diligent attention to detail provided immense peace of mind. Not only did Claire take impeccable care of my home, but his affectionate and attentive handling of my beloved pup, Modi, was truly heartwarming. Her updates and thoughtful notes about Modi's well-being were incredibly reassuring, making me feel connected even when I was away. Clair's meticulous care extended beyond the basics. She went above and beyond, ensuring that every aspect of my home was looked after with the utmost respect and consideration. From watering plants to maintaining cleanliness, her efforts were nothing short of extraordinary. I wholeheartedly endorse Claire for anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated house sitter. I look forward to having her back and cannot recommend her highly enough. A solid 5-star rating is an understatement for the exceptional service she provides!

Alyssa was a very organized and caring pet sitter. This was our longest house sitter stay and she took excellent care of our home and two sweet and bossy Frenchies. I liked her communication to touch base the week before and how she initiated a shared photo album. We prefer not to get bombarded with daily text message photos and updates. She came up with a connected solution and touched base throughout her stay keeping us informed and sharing photos without a push. She even shared some travel gems about our destination as she is also a curious traveler and enjoys exploring outdoors. We would be happy to use her again.
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!
Caitlin
This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!
Robert
Melissa did an AWESOME job with our 4 pets! Her personal style and communication via text, video, and pics were stellar and super comforting while we were out of town for 2 weeks. She showed up before the sit to go over instructions for the pet care and was even here when we returned (before she left for her next engagement). You would never know this was her first TH sit. She quickly earned our trust, asked for clarification when needed, and overall is just a GREAT PERSON!! Her kindness showed through in the care of each and every one of our furry babies. She will be a great sitter for others and is looking to travel across and see more of the US while remote working. We have adopted her into our family and she is welcome in our home anytime. Our whole family hopes to see her again-either for a visit and/or for a sit :) Thank you, Thank you, Melissa!!!
Sara
Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.
Lesa Renee
Jeremy and Brooke were fantastic! We have a senior dog and a over hyper pittie. They gave Daisy her meds and had lengthy walks with Fin to burn off some of his energy. Brooke sent me regular texts to show me precious pictures of the pups by the Christmas tree, which warmed my ❤️. The house looked great when we returned. They are awesome detailed sitters and will make your pets feel loved and secure!!

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith

Amazing experience! Five stars all the way... Nikki was kind enough to watch our two cats Thomas and Toby while were away on our honeymoon. From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with clear communication and quick replies. Since she was local in Atlanta we got to meet her ahead of time and hand off keys before we left. While we were away she sent pictures of our little buds having fun and being themselves, so we always knew they were ok. She always showed up exactly when she said she would from pickup to dropoff and it was so incredible to know they were in good hands, and we never had to worry. They love being around people so for her to have been able to stay with them and love on them regularly we came home and could immediately tell both Thomas and Toby felt great as they were completely comfortable. Much much different than when we leave even for a few days and have a pet sitter stop by and feed them. She asked all the necessary questions in advance, so she didn't have to email or ask anything while we were away. She even took the time to make sure everything was neat and tidy, prepped the sheets to be changed, and was unbelievably sweet to get us a wedding gift we both love. Nikki we can't thank you enough for taking care of our cats, and we would only be so lucky if you stuck around town! :)

Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat. He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care. Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!
