Maxine took wonderful care of my cat, Mimi. This was my first time using zeewoi, and Maxine was very kind and told me how the site and the sits work. As a newbie, I highly appreciated this information. Maxine and her partner David are really kind people that genuinely love cats. Maxine sent me updates of Mimi daily (we had agreed on daily updates) and the videos proved that Mimi trusted Maxine and David and felt safe around them. This was a huge relief during my time away and I was able to relax knowing Mimi was well looked after. Even though my apartment is not within a walking distance to the shops, Maxine never complained and made her own arrangements. Maxine also bought toys for Mimi which Mimi plays with often. This was a pleasant surprise which was highly appreciated. Maxine also engaged my cat often and played a lot with her. I appreciated this a lot as my cat loves playing with wands and toys. The apartment was super tidy, to an extent I didn't think was ever possible haha. Maxine is an experienced sitter, which was evident in the way she organised everything for the sit. During the week approaching Maxine's sit, I had a checklist with a number of house related tasks to complete. Due to time constraints, a couple of these tasks were incomplete, but Maxine did not complain although I know that the completion of these tasks would have made Maxine's visit smoother. Overall, I am really grateful to Maxine and David who were so gentle with Mimi. Communication was excellent and friendly and I highly recommend Maxine as you can trust that your cat(s) will be completely safe and well looked after.

Jazmyn was great caring for our home and our 3 very special (read: trouble) pets. Everything was kept in order and clean, including the car she borrowed. Would absolutely recommend and invite back again.

Milton did a masterful job of managing house, plants, and pets while I was away. We had a good short visit the night he arrived and then I disappeared off grid for the rest of his stay, so he really had to rely on his ingenuity. The house is in excellent shape when I returned, as were the pets. My dog Chula was a bit of a handful and probably caused undue stress for poor Milton! Although traveling alone, Milton is quite capable at reaching out to neighbors and  seeking out interesting things to do in the area. Very communicative and straightforward about his needs and any questions. He really has this Zeewoi gig thing down! I am most appreciative of all of his meticulous care of my place. Milton even helped my neighbors get their first Zeewoi job! Go Milton.

I had a really great sit looking after Buddy and Milo in Surfside Beach.

Susie and Mike are great hosts, very organised and made me feel very welcome. The house is spacious and comfortable and has everything you could need for a great stay. The area is quiet and pristine with friendly neighbours and just a 5 minute drive to any kind of shop you might need and just a couple of miles from the beautiful beach.

Communication with Susie was great from the start and she left clear instructions for looking after the pets and taking care of things.

Buddie and Milo are a delight to look after, both very good natured and affectionate. Buddie is eager to please, loves company and his playtime but is also very obedient and respectful. Milo is very sweet and very easy to look after. They both get on great and it's a lot of fun to see them play together :)

I can highly recommend this sit and hope to come back again sometime in the future.

Jackson is a sweetie and Jen is nice! Jackson did tend to bark during the night. The main thing that I wasn’t prepared for that I wanted to put here for everyone’s wellbeing is that I found him to be reactive on walks. He does bark/growl at everyone and try to jump on them, to the point that people were telling me to control him better. But he’s not leash trained, so I could only do my best. He’s friendly, but for people on the street him barking and lunging at them is scary! I did my best to avoid everyone, but sometimes people come out a car or driveway suddenly. Jen had only told me that sometimes he can be funny around certain dogs, and just to move to the other side of the street. But he reacted aggressively to everyone including people walking without dogs. I moved to the opposite side of the street when there was a dog but sometimes there’s dogs on both sides and even if the dog was on the other side, Jackson would still bark and lunge from across the road. Him pulling me and me trying to reel him back hurt because he was so determined. I just found taking him out to be really stressful, and I wish I knew how reactive he was prior to accepting.
