Grellan was one of the best house sitters we have ever had. He sent us photos daily and we could really tell our pups had a great time and were well taken care of. We would highly recommend Grellan to anyone needing a house sitter.

Beth and Phil are one in a million, as pet sitters and plant caregivers and as guests. We welcome them back to our Evergreen home any time and hope to get to meet them in person one day. They left our home sparkling clean and our dogs were happy, calm and content. People like Beth and Phil are what make Zeewoi so special. We highly recommend them!

Lara is a caring and responsible sitter, and overall lovely human. She took our pup Denali on multiple walks a day and really catered to his needs. We received numerous photos and videos without asking, which we absolutely loved. Lara also did an impeccable job taking care of our garden, watering the tomato plants and flowers. We came back to a clean house and a happy pup. We’d welcome Lara back again!!

Natalie was great with our dog and cat! She brought our cat inside every night with ease which made for a stress free vacation for us. Our home was nice and clean when we returned and she was great at communicating. Would highly recommend her!

Lucy, Latisa, Grace and Katrina were phenomenal house and pet sitters. I cannot say enough great things about them. First and foremost they took great care of our pets. I received regular updates which always makes a pet owner happy. Our house was treated like their own. They left the house with clean sheets on all the beds which was so appreciated and the house was very clean. It is always great to come home without having to do laundry. They even left us a wonderful thank you card with a special treat. They are welcome back anytime. I can tell they are genuinely nice and caring people.

Ryan and Angela were fantastic! They took excellent care of our sweet, somewhat high maintenance cat. They communicated regularly and sent photos. They were very responsive when we asked them questions and took great care of our place. Highly recommended!

Incredibly grateful to Hayley and Aden for their incredible care of our home and our cat, Louis. We have had the pleasure of their care for past sits, and this time they accepted our last minute invitation to sit (due to another sitter couple who cancelled 48 hours before the sit). Self-sufficiency is a fabulous quality in a sitter, and this couple manages all aspects of daily home and pet care with ease. We are happy to welcome them back any time.

They were wonderful housesitters, and took such great care of Nella!They took her on lots of walks and played with her in the yard often, probably spoiling her which is fine by us! They kept in touch with us throughout our trip and sent us some cute photos, and left our home in great condition, very neat and tidy. We would love to have them back again!

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.

Amanda was the perfect housesitter and pet sitter for our cat. She is organized and communicative, and took care to ensure she understood the guidelines for taking care of our home and our cat. She left our house in perfect condition and we returned home to one happy kitty! Would not hesitate to have Amanda housesit for us again or recommend her to others looking for a sitter.

Lani is an excellent Pet Sitter and housesitter. Communication was easy, our pet Cleo appreciated her loving care. We came home to a relaxed and happy cat.
I would happily ask Lani to housesit again.

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!!

This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.

Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers.  I would recommend them over and over.  I wish I could add numbers to the scale.
They would get a 10+.  

Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate.  They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left!  I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.

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.

Thomas did an amazing job! We were very pleased with how well he was able to care for our 3 active Boston terriers. He was able to handle all 3 on a walk and feed them their special meal everyday. He even ventured out and took them to the beach which is no easy task for 3 excited dogs. Thomas did a great job communicating before and during the stay. We came home to a clean house with bedding washed. We had a handful of other pet sitters through this website and Thomas easily rates at the top of our list. Thank you for taking great care for the dogs and the house.

Tom was the PERFECT pet and house sitter.  I went out of town for a while after my dad passed, and I had a few pet sitters bail before he came in for the rescue.  He cleaned up the messes and I came home to a clean house and VERY happy babies!  My two dogs LOVED him.  He is extremely reliable, clean, trustworthy and was incredibly caring to my dogs.  I would have him back ANYTIME and HIGHLY recommend him!!

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!
