Natasha (Bianca's sister) and Martina were AMAZING! This is the first time I have had a dog sitter and I was a little apprehensive. However, Natasha sent almost daily photos and videos of our precious bundle, which we really appreciated. Rigby received LOTS of playing and walks, they have a genuine love of dogs. I know Rigby will miss them. In addition, they were excellent at sorting out house issues. They were very calm and efficient at arranging repairs when our washing machine and electric gate decided to break down! After a review, I would normally say, I wouldn't hesitate to use their services again "... however, I am going to pre-book them for next summer! We were very grateful for their high level of professionalism and kindness. Lovely people. Thank you!

As this was the first time we had tried zeewoi, we were a little nervous but we really needn't have been. Rahul & Derisha are a lovely couple who took great care of Bryn and of our house and garden. As soon as Rahul arrived, Bryn put his head in his lap wanting his head stroked and that was all we really needed to see to be able to go off happily on our travels. We would happily welcome them back anytime: thank you Rahul & Derisha.

Sean and Tammi were very nice and were self sufficient. We had a bit of miscommunication which I feel was probably me being unclear and ot specific enough. They had an issue with Molly running off and they remained calm and did everything right. I feel both of us could have communicated better but I feel that it is a learning curve. The most important thing was that our pets were happy and chilled on our return. Thank you Sean and Tammi

Keli and Jed were amazing! They sent us pictures and updates of the dogs, which showed that our dogs were very well looked after and felt right at home with Keli and Jed. We were out of signal most of our trip, but knew that the dogs were in great hands. Upon our return, they had walked the dogs, cleaned the house and left the garden (with zero poos) in amazing condition! They even sweetly left us a meal in the fridge for our night back after a full day of driving. The dogs were also in great condition and very happy when we got back, obviously well loved and taken care of. Would definitely recommend them and would love to have them back in future!

Barbara and Andrew were fantastic house sitters. Communication from the beginning was easy and all plans that were made were adhered to. We spent a very happy evening with them before our trip and we knew that we had left both the animals and house in very good hands. They loved taking Wiggins for walks, exploring the local area, and they were intrigued by Totty the Tortoise. They had never looked after a tortoise before but embraced the challenge! The house was left in an immaculate state, the garden was well tended to and a delicious supper was waiting for us on our return. Not only that, but there were flowers around the house and a clean car in the drive. You would be lucky to have Barbara and Andrew as your house sitters and we highly recommend them. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.

Diane and Rob did a pretty good job considering the weather was really bad during their stay. They could have communicated a bit better but left everything tidy.

Leslie consistently demonstrated outstanding communication skills, both initially and throughout the entire process, and I would gladly give her more stars if possible.

Leslie arrived as scheduled, and instantly the animals fell in love with her and Bennie.  Our cats love our dogs but usually won't come in the house when a strange dog is here but they didnt even hesitate to come meet Bennie.  Bennie was very calm and a true gentleman.

Leslie sent pictures throughout the sit reassuring us the gang were all getting along and enjoying her and Bennie's company.  She read through the welcome guide before we left as well as we showed her around. It was very nice getting the chance to know her a bit before we ledt the following morning.  We felt very comfortable knowing our home and pets were in good hands.

It is very apparent when you meet Leslie that she truly does love animals.  When our Molly decided to hide, Leslie called us right away because she feared Molly may have gotten spooked by a firework going off in the neighborhood and escaped under the gate. I felt so bad for Leslie because she blamed herself because it was on her watch. I have trackers on all my pets and it turned out that Molly was still in the house and just hiding really well. She can curl up.pretty small.  Lealie took our Lab to check the walking route and see if Molly was there.  When I called and told her Molly had to be at the house because her tracker showed her there, she returned to our home and Molly hreeted her as she came in the front door.  I was very appreciative of Leslie's phone call though because she didnt wait hours to call, she searched the yard and house and called right away.  

We decided to cut our trip short a day and asked Leslie if she minded if we came home a day early.  We let her know we didnt expect her to leave early and made sure she was comfortable with our decision.  As a pet parent, it is imperative that we remember the sitters are also on vacation and we didnt want to intrude on her time.  As it turned out, we ended up stopping by the ER on our way home where my husband was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm.  Unfortunately we had both the RV and my car and I needed to figure out how to get them home. I reached out to Leslie who offerred to give me a ride back to the hospital after I dropped o e vehicle off at home so I could retrieve the second vehicle.  BTW, the surgeon was able to repair my hubbys aneurysm and he will be coming home soon.  Leslie was a comfort during this frightening time and even stayed an extra day to help out and care for our home and pets.  She was a teue blessing.

Leslie left the house spotless along with so.e fresh flowers for me when I got back from visiting my husband.  If you get an opportunity to host Leslie in your home, rest assured your home and pets will be well loved and well taken care of.  We.would welcome.Leslie back anytime.  She is not just a pet sitter, she is a new trusted friend.

Prashant and India were fantastic pets sitters for us. Both were dependable and were even kind enough to allow some service people into the home to do some repairs.

Our dogs were well looked after and we got daily updates on how the dogs were doing. Prashant is very knowledgeable and gave us a few strategies to combat some negative behaviors that we were seeing with the dogs.

Could not recommend them more. They will be missed.

Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! 

I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. 

During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully.

Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!

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!!

Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month.  I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!

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!!

Deboraj took great care of the apartment and of our goofy unsociable cat. She went out of her way to bring catnip and make friends with Rowan. She communicated often and cared to be as good a house and pet sitter as could be. I can gladly recommend her highly to anyone else looking.
Thank you Deborah.

Mikala & Jake were great house & pet sitters for us!! Our dog and two cats absolutely adored them, and we came back to a very clean home with happy animals :) They were very reliable and fast communicators. They even had to deal with our power going out while we were away, and they handled it well. It eased our minds to know our animals and house were in such great care while we were away and would have them sit for us anytime!

Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats.  They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it.  The cats were very contented.  Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first.   Such a pleasure to work with.
