We had just Sara stay to look after Mila our large German shep. Mila can be quite anxious but Sara really knew how to handle her :) Unfortunately we were delayed getting home and thankfully She was flexible enough and stayed an extra night to make sure Mila was cared for. It really took the stress off the situation! Sara and Mila got a long very well and it seemed she had a real soft spot for her. The house was left tidy and clean. Thanks so much Sara!!

Sarah was such a gem! My pup Rhu was so well taken care of while I was away - lots of cuddles and exploring the city. My home was left cleaner than when I left. Can’t wait to have her back again!

It was so great having Lynn as a dogsitter for my two fur babies! The dogs obviously adored her, and she was very self-sufficient and allowed me to enjoy an extremely relaxed vacation! Also, I had to convince her that she REALLY DIDN'T have to clean every part of the house before she left--THAT'S how considerate she is!

Jill and Dan were brilliant. A really delightful and thoughtful couple. Took the best possible care of our elderly dog, organised their lives around her needs, gave her her medication, sent us regular updates on how she was, couldn't have done more. AND looked after the house beautifully, and welcomed us with a delicious supper when we came home! Thank you very much Jill and Dan!!

This was our first time using a house sitter and I think we have been spoiled. Norm and Nancy sat our place and animals, (4 dogs, 4 ducks, and 7 rabbits) During and arctic freeze and several heavy snowstorms. They took excellent care of our animals and home despite the severe winter conditions. They have a very professional approach and left our house as we left it if not better. Our Dogs missed them after they left and while we were away we enjoyed Nancy's daily blog about our animals. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our animals were being taking care of the way we would. Nancy, being a nurse practitioner, took special care of our old dog that required medicine and special treatment. We were nervous about leaving him until we met Norm and Nancy. We are interested in house sitting someday and they are perfect role models to follow.

We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. 
Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention.
He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. 
He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. 
The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! 
We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. 
We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. 
Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). 
In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. 
We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!

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.

Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment  and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)

Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.

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!!

Linda was an awesome pet sitter for my doggie Brodie! She gave him so much loving attention… he has some separation anxiety at 9 years old & she never left his side! She was so attentive to him & I am very grateful for that!

Linda’s communication was also something I liked… we texted & chatted on the phone before her arrival & I felt very comfortable with her being in my home & with my dog.
I could tell her number one reason to pet sit was her love for dogs & desire to be a wonderful companion for Brodie while I was away for the weekend!
Would love to have her back anytime…

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. :)

What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs!
You can truly feel their love for animals.  
Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson!
Our home was perfect when we got home.  They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen.
We highly recommend this couple!

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!
