Never cancelled a sit, all boosters, non-smoker, traveling solo
Maureen was a treat from start to finish with our home and cat, Poppy! She is perhaps one of the most organized sitters we have encountered on zeewoi. Her resume speaks for itself. She was eager to sit, despite it being a somewhat short notice (about 10 days). Upon arrival we received pictures of Poppy to let us know that she was in good hands. We also got daily updates in the evenings, which we enjoy. Maureen stayed at our home during the coldest stretch of the year, and came prepared with heating blankets, etc, which we appreciated as we only have space heaters currently. We would be happy to host Maureen any time. Her communication and experience are certainly top notch and your pet will be in great hands!

Dependable animal lover excited to care for your fur babies and your home.
Terry was great to work with and great at communicating every step of the way. He has the experience to know what questions to ask, and went the extra mile to work with our travel schedule when we were dialing in dates and times. I could tell he was a pro at making our two dogs feel comfortable and well taken-care of. We returned to find two happy dogs and our place just the way we left it - only maybe even a bit cleaner!

This was our first time using Zeewoi and Chris was really really great! He was communicative leading up to, during, and after our trip. Leo seemed very well cared for when we returned home, and the house was spotless. We hope Leo gets to hang out with Chris again sometime soon!

We were gone for 10 days and Brandon was very responsive throughout our time away. The animals were well taken care of and we appreciated that he asked questions if he needed help.

We were so fortunate that Melanie was available to stay with our 15-year-old cat, Little Bits for 12 days. Our sweet female calico has gotten older and a little more frail dealing with hyperthyroidism. My husband and I were concerned yet hopeful that we’d find the right person to look after her needs. Well, Melanie was a gem; we didn't have a single worry the entire time we were away. We were also very grateful that she was able to arrive the evening before we left so we could go over things in the house and get acquainted. We knew instantly Bits would be in excellent hands. Melanie was watchful and very attentive. Her communication was beyond exceptional and we loved getting updates with photos of our girl. It was obvious that Little Bits was very happy with her new friend. When we returned we found our home clean and in perfect order. Melanie did an amazing job!

Shandi was amazing taking care of Sandy while I was traveling. Communication was crystal clear, Sandy was really chill when I was back and the house was pristine. Hope to have her taking care of Sandy again in the future.

Life is great, but it would be even better exploring with your pets
Molly and Rick were wonderful with our sweeties, and great communicators. I also appreciate the efforts that they made to keep the apartment clean, including the sheets and towels so I won't have to add this to my plate when coming back from the weekend with three teens.

Caring, positive and honest Dutch lady. When I commit, it is for a 100%.
We cannot say enough good things about Annemarie and her care of our dog and home. She knows Roo from a prior sit, so within minutes they were best friends again. She kept in touch with us regularly and sent photos of Roo which we loved. He is very stubborn about not eating when we are gone, so she tried different things with our suggestions and permission. Annemarie took excellent care of our home and plants, both inside and out. She even had muffins for our breakfast the morning after we got home! Annemarie is great about handling whatever comes her way. She has emergency numbers, of course, but she has never had to use them thankfully. We will happily have her care for Roo whenever we go away. We know he is in excellent hands.

Patrick was an excellent house sitter! I was happy to leave my “kids” in his hands!

My pets are my children and your pets will be my adopted children ❤️
Tracy arrived promptly and provided good care for my dog. She was attentive to him and he seemed in good shape when I got home.
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.

We have used Serenity Paws several times and have always been thankful for Kim’s service for our dog. She is able to customize her care for our dog. Unfortunately, our dog does not get along with other dogs and Kim has been able to accommodate for that. It’s also reassuring that our dog is comfortable with her. We have already recommended her to friends and plan to continue using her for our future dog sitting needs.
Our greyhound stayed with Kimberly at Serenity Paws for 13 nights. We had a previous horrific experience with another large kennel in the area and we were looking for someone that could give some personalized attention and love to our boy. We did 2 trial runs at serenity paws and all went well so we decided to trust Kimberly with his stay and we are so glad we did! He is a fragile dog with very specific needs and some anxiety but Kimberly and her staff did a great job with him. He came home the healthiest and happiest he has evern been after boarding. We also very much appreciated the photos/ videos she sent to us while we were overseas so that we wouldn't worry about his well-being. The peace of mind that is given is priceless.
I was referred to Kim by my vet as my dog was terminally ill & needed special care. Kim took excellent care of my dog & I could tell my dog was happy to go & happy when I picked her back up every time. I would refer Kim to anyone who has a pet whether the situation is unique or not. Your pet will be in great care.
I am so happy I found Serenity Paws! Kim is amazing with the animals. She has boarded and trained our puppy twice and both times I have been really impressed with his progress. The property is gorgeous and the facilities are super clean. 10 out of 10!
Kim was highly recommended to us by DVM / Surgeon Dr Broaddus at Hanover Veterinary Specialists, as our pup needed knee surgery and follow-on lengthy rehab. This was just after I had a hip replacement - so both our pup and I needed time and space to heal. Not only did she provide daily rehabilitation boarding care for our pup, but also transported him to / from Lock A. Taylor Veterinary Clinic in Glen Allen to provide him with Laser treatments and Hydro therapy during his recovery. Kim is the most caring person we’ve met in the animal care field. She provides an absolute haven for dogs with medical needs, and trains owners in ways to help their dogs recover. We highly recommend her!! Thank you Kim!
Kimberly, is the one person I can trust to care for my dog.. As my dog has aged requiring more nuanced daily care, finding a place to board her each year while I’m overseas for three weeks became a challenge…..until I found Kimberly! Most kennels keep the dogs together, which can be overwhelming for an older pup-especially an introverted rescue like mine. And she gives each dog individual care and attention, so Hava is never overlooked bc of the more rambunctious kennelmates Add to this the necessary assurance, when out of the country for an extended period, that any emergencies will be handled by Kimberly- an experienced veterinarian technician. Unlike most pet sitters, such as on Rover, who can not ensure my dog’s continued care in the event of an emergency with either themselves or my dog, having such a knowledgeable, professional, insured provider, who also happens to be an authentic animal whisperer to all creatures great and small, is a real gem. She will love your dog, and you will love the peace of mind knowing your dog is in good & tender hands! Kim&Hava🐕
OUTSTANDING!!! I can count people I trust with my pups on one hand. Kim at Serenity Paws is my number one! She truly cared about my big boy and what he and our family are going through. Jack recently became a special needs pup when he came down with IVDD that has him fighting to stand and walk on his own. Serenity PAWs years of experience with dogs just like Jack coupled with a sincere desire to take care served us well. After a 4 day stay he was stronger and more independent than when i dropped him off. The facility and kennel conditions put me at ease and are second to none that I have every seen. I highly recommend them if you are in search of a safe, clean and enriching environment staffed and ran by a true professional. I will be a customer for life.
So thankful we have Kim to come to when boarding! She takes excellent care of my dog when we are away. She’s always quick to respond & happy to help. Look no further, this is where you want your pups to be!
Kim was so gracious and flexible with our unique needs. She helped take care of our pups and save our family trip. And the pups were so well taken care of : )
If you’re looking for a very kind, true lover of animals, and a licensed veterinary technician with several additional certifications then you’ve found her at Serenity Paws. The owner, Kim, is all that and more. We wouldn’t think of leaving our pup with anyone else. She consistently works to assure that each pet is well cared for and safe. We feel very fortunate that there is such a wonderful place for “Frank” to vacation when we’re away.
This is my third time using Calypso Kennels for my dogs. I’ve always had a great experience and the staff genuinely cares about my pets well-being. I wouldn’t leave them with any other kennel. Thank you for being there for us!
This was our first experience using Calypso Kennels. We will definitely be using them again. Our dogs have never been to a kennel before and having the peace of mind that they were safe and well taken care of is priceless.
This was my first time boarding Lucy with Calypso. Staff gave us a tour as requested before boarding her showing all the areas with explanations of the use. We liked the concept of Lucy having her own kennel and outside run - while she is ok around other dogs, it's not her norm. She would much rather be around people - here they take the dogs on "potty break walks" and provide options for yard time (ie, a large fenced area where the dog can run free/play/do zoomies). They have several options you can add to the daily room fee to tailor the pups visit. Lucy stayed 5 days. Calypso provided a verbal and a written summary of her stay (activity level, how she ate, any noted bowel changes, what she seemed to enjoy - for Lucy it was lying in the sun on her external run). We rarely board Lucy - we take her most everywhere we travel. It's great to have a place available near home that pays good attention to her, provides her with a safe environment (ex, air conditioning, back up generators in case of a power outage, daily cleaned kennel, etc) and keeps us informed.
Calypso kennels took very good care of my three best friends while I was out of town. The staff was very attentive to their special needs and Lilo, Stitch, and Marty McFly seemed very happy and content while in their care. Thank you Calypso for taking care of my buddies.
My cat came home with no lingering spiteful behavior. That tells me that she had some solitude. Being a senior cat, she likes to have a place to curl up and be left alone. Unless she wants attention! The staff was super nice. The dropping off and picking was very easy. I would definitely recommend Calypso.
I used Calypso Kennels for the first time last week. I boarded my dog Thursday -Monday. The staff was very nice and professional. The facility is maintained very well. They took very care of my dog and even gave him a bath! I plan to use them for future boarding and daycare.
Calypso Kennels took great care of our feline and kept us well informed when we called to check on him. If they see a concern, that call to let us know. This was Achmed’s third time of being boarded and they took really good care of him. We highly recommend Calypso Kennels and we will continue to use them for boarding.
Calypso is such a nice place! I used to take my dogs there all the time and the employees are the best. I now take my cats there and they everybody is equally as amazing. I believe they provide great care for my pets and will be my go-to for pet boarding.
We are very confident that our dogs are well cared for! The staff are friendly and cooperative. They go out of their way to try and make sure you are happy and comfortable with leaving your pets with them. The groomers do a great job as well!
This place is clean, well maintained, and plenty of space. Staff is the friendliest of many boarding places. My two dogs will continue to be repeat customers.
