Alvertra was patient with changes to our dates initially and this was much appreciated! She was excellent in communicating with us about when, where, why and how. She was a lovely conversationalist and was interested in and cared for our girls right from the beginning. We received photos daily and could tell the dogs really responded with trust, though we did not meet Alvertra in person before her arrival. Our home was well cared for and we appreciated the excitement Alvertra conveyed about having the Sit. She would always be welcome back to stay with our girls. Thank you so much, A for a wonderful zeewoi experience!

I can see why Donna and Tom are reviewed so highly by previous home owners. They went above and beyond in flexibility and communication, as well as pet, garden and home care. I was touched by how they left fresh food for me even though they could easily have taken all back with them since they are locals. I do so appreciate the work keeping up with watering my many containers. My newly-planted pansies look great!

We were so thankful to find Rusty, who went above and beyond as a sitter for two weeks while we travelled out of state. Unfortunately our dog developed a skin infection, but Rusty managed everything - took him to the vet, communicated with us, administered medications and kept Archie mostly inside while it healed. He was easygoing and self-sufficient and left the house better than he found it, with clean sheets waiting for us. We would have Rusty back anytime!

Ginny came as a late minute fill-in for a sitter that had to cancel last minute. She was wonderful and my two cats took to her immediately. She communicated with me every day and was just so easy to work with. I highly recommend Ginny for taking care of your fur kids.

Shawn & Clive are a great couple: friendly, reliable, competent and enthusiastic. They did a fabulous job caring for our dog and two cats plus our house and yard. The animals were happy and healthy on our return, the garden and yard watered, the house neat and tidy, and they even provided a short-term fix for our outdoor shower malfunction. We would welcome them back.

Anna came at the time she stated and took good care of my cat. She followed protocol with cleaning and left the house tidy upon my arrival with a note of things that were left off on. I would trust her to care for my home again.

This is the 4th time Sarah has sat for us. Needless to say, we wouldn't have her back again and again if she wasn't totally fantastic. She communicates with us every day with pictures of our fur babies. The house is always immaculate when we return. Her best attribute is that our kitties love hanging with Sarah. I couldn't give her any higher marks. Our cats miss her already!

This was the second time Joanna had sit for us, and it was every bit as good as the first, or even more so since she was already acquainted with Rosco and Roxy and knew their routine. Joanna is completely reliable, self-sufficient, and there's just not very much that rattles her! It was a pleasure to have her back and to have the peace of mind that the house and pets were in very good hands. Thanks, Joanna!

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.

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!!!

Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.

Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.

Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency  and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.

I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!

Toby and we were SO lucky to have Tom be our home and pet sitter for our Thanksgiving Holiday trip!  From the very beginning Tom was responsive and communicative.  He was even able to arrange a "meet and greet" with us and Toby before beginning his stay.  While here Tom took great care of our home, and, most importantly, provided wonderful care of Toby!  When we got home everything was in perfect order and we could tell that even though Toby was happy to see us he was going to miss Tom.  I would be thrilled if we could have Tom as our zeewoi again.  You will be lucky if he can do the same for you. :)

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!

For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high.  We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything.
