Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Eliza was my first sitter after signing up on zeewoi. I’m Soooo happy to have had her in my home watching over my dogs. They were very well taken care of and she did everything I asked her to do with the dogs meals and medication. Plus she took excellent care of my home and plants. If you are lucky enough to get Eliza to stay at your home, you will be so glad it was she who took care of things! Very happy 😃
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!
I don’t think we could’ve picked a better sitter than Joe! This was our first time using this website/app, and I can only hope that all of our future sitters will be amazing as he was! He was kind, respectful, attentive, extremely clean, (seriously I think our house was cleaner than when we left for vacation), and took such amazing care of our two dogs! He arrived early on the day of our departure so he could meet our dogs and get a detailed run down of their routine. Both of our dogs warmed up to him immediately! :) One of our pups sometimes has the tendency to be reactive towards other dogs on leash. He handled him so effortlessly and with such compassion, it really put any worries I might’ve had aside. While we were away he sent little updates and pictures of the adventures they went on: farmers markets, car rides, long walks, and lots of pets and cuddles. After he left both of our dogs sat out side his room and just looked so sad that their new friend Joe had gone away. I honestly can’t recommend Joe enough! If you are looking for someone, your search should end here!
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.

I cannot say enough good things about Peace of Mind Pets. We had previously lived close by friends who were able to take care of our guinea pigs while we were away, but after moving we needed to find someone to watch them. They have watched Mike and Sully several times now and have taken amazing care of them. We receive updates with pictures and details of the visits every day which truly does put us at ease while we are away and allows us to enjoy traveling.
Boarded our 1 year old pup with Cyndi and Peace of Mind Pups. Was a bit apprehensive since this was his first time. Cyndi and her team took great care of him! We received periodic updates as requested. He was able to play with other boarded or day care dogs. Was nice to have a property for him run around as well. Highly recommend their services! We'll be back!
We have taken our Coton Fred here. Fred is a small dog, 12 lbs. and we do worry about him when we board him. Fred came back to us very much himself and not stressed out in the least. We have had a fantastic experience. I really feel like we are leaving Fred with family. It does make me feel at ease with the way he is cared for. I highly recommend.
I would just like to say THANK YOU. Our other boarding place canceled at the last minute. We called literally the day before and she said YES. We are so grateful and thankful. Jasper had an amazing time and made some new friends. I loved the pictures and the updates. Hearing that Jasper was such a good boy made me sooooo proud. Definitely recommend 10/10. 💕💕💕 will be coming back.
Cyndi Richard’s was so helpful from the moment I reached out to her. I had to leave town for a family emergency on very short notice. She arranged a meet and greet the same day. She worked to very efficiently capture all the information on my pet and our needs. Then, most importantly, followed through to ensure our Rosie received excellent care….and we received lots of reassuring photos which was a plus! Our short trip was extended to over two weeks and had a few twists and turns. Cyndi accommodated us every step of the way. I am not sure I would have made it through the last several weeks without her. I will say - she gave me complete piece of mind at a very stressful time for our family - and our pets! I would highly recommend Peace of Mind Pets RVA to anyone needing pet care services.
Peace of Mind Pets RVA is aptly named. Whenever we've used them, we've never had to worry about them taking care of our pets. They provide detailed reports (complete with pictures), and are always very thorough. They almost always go above and beyond what we ask them to do, and all at a very reasonable price. Cannot recommend them enough!
I had never left my kitty for 3 weeks and was nervous! But this team of caregivers were just wonderful. Every single day I got a report and pictures. I didn't have to worry at all because I knew she was in very good hands! I travel frequently and will not use any other service. Hands down, the best!
Peace of Mind Pets RVA is the best pet care service we have ever had the pleasure of working with. We won’t let anyone else watch our dog besides Cyndi and her team. They take great care of our dog and always send pictures of how much fun he’s having!
Peace of Mind Pets has been so reliable which is so important when counting on someone to take care of your pets! They provide quality care and I love that I get an update through the portal after the visit - usually with pictures. I've been really happy with their service and willingness to provide service with my sometimes short notice due to work travel. I've been really happy with them!
We love Cyndi and the Care she gives our dog. Pearl loves having space to run. Cyndi treats your pet like family. She is flexible on pick up and drop offs which helps when plane or other travel is unpredictable. Pearl is a rescue that can be nervous about things and she is never scared or hesitant to go to peace of mind pets!
