Dorothy

Dorothy is very delightful and it's very clear that she loves pets, especially cats. Jimmy took to he at once. Dorothy is very responsible and we came home a nice clean house. Highly recommend her and would love to have her sit for Jimmy again.

Hannah

July 22, 2022 Hannah and her boyfriend Chiyoung were ideal house sitters for my two dogs, Charlie and Gertie. They relentlessly walked the dogs three times a day and allowed them time to meet their canine friends in the hood. They also proved to be excellent at keeping my house in good shape and in looking after my swimming pool. The place was in better shape than before I left to visit my sister in Scotland. Hannah and Chiyoung have my highest recommendation.. I give them five stars in every category. John McClintcok

Maurica (Ivy)

Ivy did a terrific job (again!) taking care of our feline friends. She left the house spotless, including doing the sheets and towels before our return. She communicated well both before and during the sit, including pictures of our goofball kitties. She even bought them treats (with permission) for Christmas! Everything was in excellent order when we returned and we would be delighted to have Ivy sit for us again!

Stella

They took excellent care of our home and our pets while we were away for a couple days. I'd highly recommend them for anyone looking for a reliable house/pet sitter.

Dominic

Dominic and Bri were communicative, flexible, and great caretakers for my cats while I was away! I would definitely choose them again in the future.

Erica & Darren

Erica and Darren have been on both ends of zeewoi-- as housesitters and as people who invited housesitters to their home. This made me and my husband feel especially at ease with them, and it's clear our cat felt the same way! They were communicative and left our tidy tidy. Come back to Charlottesville anytime!

Nina has been an amazing sitter for our kitty, we’ve invited her to come watch our cat multiple times ☺️She always leaves super creative check in messages that make us smile while we’re away and is willing to go above and beyond the pet-sitting to make sure our minds are at ease.

Nikki, Andriy and their delightful daughter looked after our Mala for a week. We had a lovely time getting to know them, and we can tell that Mala was well looked after when we were away.

Susan

It was wonderful sitting for Be’be. She is a really sweet cat. Make sure you let her warm up to you, once she does you won’t be able to give her enough love. She loves spending time and getting pets. Once she is on her belly she is in play mode, so have a toy ready for her to nip and grab. She really does need a lot of love and affection. It’s a Lovely apartment, close to a great rock climbing gym. Having a car will be helpful given it’s a little out of the way for some other amenities (but not impossible) The owners were kind and thoughtful, asking if I wanted anything left for me at the apartment for food etc. they left a little note giving some useful directions. The only thing that could have made the sit better was if all the information had been put into the sitters guide. I was their first sit and I don’t think they had figured out how to do it yet. I’m sure they will have that done by the time it’s your turn. They arrived home a day earlier than planned which was a complete accident but an unfortunate one. But I know how international travel can be so I understand. Thanks again for having me!!

Tara

I absolutely loved spending time with Leo and experiencing his goldenness!Having grown up with the same breed, I was so impressed with how well behaved he was, and other people commented on this on our walks as well. Tara was a great host, and made me feel welcome and has a nice clean apartment in a great area where I felt very safe. I was able to walk to the beach with Leo and enjoy some cafes on Abbot Kinney. I would sit for Leo again anytime :)
