Angela
Bethel, New York
Kind & caring sitter with a side of adventure, creativity, and digital nomadism
Angela was delightful to communicate with, and I loved that she sent pics regularly and obviously enjoyed taking care of my furballs. They seemed happy upon my return, and I could tell that they were well cared for and content. I'd recommend her wholeheartedly!!
BJORN
Bethel, New York
Responsible software professional who loves animals and traveling
We highly recommend Bjorn as a pet and house sitter. We have used Bjorn several times to take care of our 3 dogs, cat, chickens, and large homestead. He is wonderful. The animals all love him and are excited every time they see him. Not only was the pet care wonderful, he shared lots of love and play which each of them individually. He sent us texts and photos, asked questions when he needed to, and he left the house even cleaner than when he arrived. He is a very kind and trustworthy human and we feel lucky to have him watch our home and pets.
Anthony
Bethel, New York
Respectful animal and travel lovers
Mia and Anthony were amazing sitters. I could not recommend them enough. They took care of our Smittens as if he was their own. They also provided me with numerous updates a day and made me feel very at ease. Smittens takes a while to warm up to new people but I could tell he had the absolute best time with Mia and Anthony. They also left the house very clean. We will certainly have Mia and Anthony stay with Smittens again!
Jared
Bethel, New York
Traveling House Sitter Available!
Jared was our first sitter. He set such a high standard that others may have a hard time to keep up! He just sat for us for the for the second time. We have nothing negative to say about this young man. Our dog loves him and he loves her, and treats her beautifully. He is sweet, kind, creative, and responsible. He calls our home his "Artists' Retreat". He will be welcome back here any time.

Rigel has sat for me twice and has done well.
Victoria
Bethel, New York
Hi! I’m Victoria, a musician that loves traveling, animals, and hiking!
Victoria and Mathew were great. Dizzy seemed well rested and relaxed when we came home which is always a great sign. The house was as clean as when we left. We would have Victoria and Mathew back again.
Naomi
Bethel, New York
Vegan - Digital Nomad - Animal Lover
I was delighted when Naomi came back again for another sit with Mr B. So kind, so calm - such a wonderful sitter in every way and kept me up to date at all times. A lovely person, so glad we met and Naomi is always welcome.
Nancy
Bethel, New York
Retired animal and travel lover looking for new adventures.
Nancy was excellent company for Harry. When we returned home, it was like we had never left. Harry did not seem to even miss us. Nancy sent us pictures of Harry on a regular basis and was a very good communicator. Nancy took great care of our plants and house. We welcome her back anytime.
Shelley and Mark
Bethel, New York
Mature couple ready to help.
Shelley is a dangerous and incompetent housesitter. She should never be entrusted with anything more valuable than a houseplant. Her pet care was terrible. On the 2nd day she left our 2 dogs outside in the backyard, unattended on a 83-degree hot, humid summer day with no water for 90 minutes while she left our home to go out for a walk. We saw this on our Ring camera and immediately reported this to zeewoi (full complaint currently under investigation) and let her know directly how concerning this was for us. Not only was it unsafe to leave the dogs outside while she left the home, but it also went against clear instructions that were communicated to her in person during the handover and in writing about what to do with the dogs anytime she left our home. She repeatedly had trouble following basic instructions that were communicated verbally, in writing and in text reminders. She was incapable of following basic pet care requirements. We asked that only one of our 2 dogs be walked once a day (I did not want her walking the other stronger dog, because during the handover we went on a walk together and Shelley DROPPED our dog's leash). We use Fi collars, so we know that over the course of 11 days, Shelley brought our dog for only 4 walks. We did a phone interview with Shelley and never did she inform us that our medium sized, 40 pound dogs would be too much for her to walk. Additionally, Shelley traveled with her sister who clearly is unwell (likely dementia or some sort of developmental disability) and also was afraid and nervous around dogs. She never informed us of this, and it was clearly a huge safety issue. Shelley's sister let our INDOOR cat out multiple times (at least 4 times are seen on outside cameras). Sometimes our cat was left outside for 20+ minutes without Shelley or her sister realizing. This is so, so dangerous- we are on a main street with a lot of traffic. We are lucky our cat didn't get lost or killed under her "care." Shelley and her sister left our home in a terrible, and honestly gross and unsanitary, condition. A paper bag with human feces was found in our bathroom and made the entire 2nd floor of the house stink for days. The rug in my office was covered with urine- which makes me wonder if she locked my dogs in this room for extended periods of time. Our dogs are fully house trained and have never had any potty accidents. The kitchen was filled with flies, milk had been spilled in the refrigerator and never cleaned up (a gross film had formed by the time we got home). The blender was put away in the cabinet unclean. The recycle bin was filled with dirty trash- so much so that we got a notice from the city. She carelessly used metal utensils and scratched our Le Creuset dutch oven (which will now void its lifetime guarantee). Three brand new bars of soap were taken from our home, like they were some sort of hotel amenity. Shelley went into our basement storage freezer (which she had NO need to access) and took home 3 gallon bags (about 20lbs) of frozen tomatoes I had harvested before our trip from our garden. When I addressed this with her, she claimed her sister packed them by accident (which, if true, & your sister is so unwell that she's packing things from someone's home that are NOT HERS, she should not be allowed to travel with you). However, I don't believe that's the case- 20 pounds of tomatoes aren't really something that just sneaks by your consciousness- it's A LOT of tomatoes. Shelley was offended I accused her of stealing, but that's what she did. She ultimately returned them, knowing full well she was in the wrong. I'm not sure what else she might have taken from our home, as I didn't think I needed to take an inventory of our belongings and supplies before we left. Ultimately the sit ended when our one of our dogs ate some of a marijuana plant in the backyard (she had never shown interest before and we did not know the plant- with no flowers on it- was dangerous). We do not blame Shelley for that (even though it was probably from a time the dogs were not adequately supervised in the backyard); having the plant where dogs could access was our mistake, and one that will never be made again. The part that is extremely concerning is that it took Shelley nearly 2 hours to get our dog to the emergency vet from discovering the first symptoms (she first texted me at 6:26pm that our dog was unwell and "having seizures" and did not leave for the hospital until 8:12pm). And I am certain she never called the zeewoi vet emergency line. She eventually reached out to my mother (our emergency contact while we were in Europe) and my mom told her to go to the vet ER immediately. Afterwards Shelley stated via message, "I cried, prayed & hugged her throughout the incident." So, instead of getting prompt medical care for our dog (emergency vet was clearly listed in our printed out home instructions), she prayed for her. Unhelpful, incompetent and incredibly dangerous. I'm not sure how she has previous good reviews. We were shocked by the incompetency and complete inability to understand and follow simple, clear directions- there are, sadly, many more examples I could include here. We are grateful our girls survived having her stay in our home. I would hope no one else ever has to deal with such a horror. To finish things off, disapproving of the legal marijuana plant in the backyard and probably of our rainbow flag displayed on the front of the house, Shelley texted "You need prayers. Find a Bible based church to go to and get healed. I pray for your soul."

Reviews from Cat Owners
Mike
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
Sandi
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Jenny
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Nina
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Elizabeth
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Monica
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Leah
Florence was a great sitter for my cat Lily. I booked her a bit last minute, as a previous sitter had to cancel, but was very happy to have her. She was reliable, prompt to respond, and sent picture updates daily at my request. Judging by the pics, Lily warmed up to her nicely and they spent some lounging time together - which is high praise from a cat! Would recommend Florence for your next sit.
gretchen
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!

Nigel was conscientious, kind, and professional during his time caring for our cat. He made a preparatory visit to learn about our cat's habits & needs, then while we were out of town, he sent daily photo updates and a short journal about how they spent their time togther. It was clear from his approach that he not only has a great way with animals, but that he tries to understand them as the individuals that they are within our families. When we got home from our trip, our cat was well-adjusted and calm. I feel very safe having left my cat with him and I will gladly do so again.
I’ve been using Kiki and Nigel as my cat sitter since I moved up 2 years ago. I have a very emotional cat that’s at times difficult and they seem to bring the best out of her. I get photo updates along with a nice blurb to let me know how things are going. Booking is done through an app which makes things a breeze.
We moved to Brooklyn in May and had been looking for a cat sitter since then. It wasn’t so urgent since we were home all day and didn’t have any travel plans. We looked at the pet sitting services available and after careful consideration and research, decided on Dogzilla and Cat Cong. Firstly, the website is really cute, clever and professional. Secondly, Nigel is really good with our cats. He sends out a detailed report after every visit with amazing pictures of our kitties. I think our kitties probably have a better time with him than with us. He kept them to their routine, gave them plenty of playtime and cuddles. He watched them for 6 days and I’m more than happy to have him care for them for much longer. Highly recommend - so glad we found someone we can trust with our cats here in the neighborhood!
Nigel and Kiki are terrific with my dog Maple. They take Maple on great walks and they took care of her while I was on vacation overseas. They are fabulous photographers and send daily pictures and reports. We truly have a gem available in Sullivan County for our beloved animals. The are professional and Maple simply adores them!
Nigel is the best! Our pup strudel loves him, and he takes great care of her. He’s very attune with her little dog needs and always makes sure she gets what she needs. He even put a little raincoat on her when it was raining! Can’t recommend him enough.
Not really sure where to start.. We found Nigel online over a year ago and it was a true blessing. He walked our two dogs, one loves people and the other is terrified. She was a baby at the time and needed a lot of extra encouragement. Nigel was beyond amazing with her. Helping us train her and calm her. He worked so hard and it really helped her and us. He was great with juggling both a large dog and a medium with two very different needs. He sent us a photo everyday and a great overview of there walks (He takes amazing pictures). He is very trust worthy and was great even when one of our pups hurt his foot. He sat with them inside and checked in daily until his foot got better. The dogs love Nigel and we felt very safe with him and still do! He really is one of the best walkers out there.
Nigel exemplifies all you would want your dog walker/sitter to be! He is incredibly kind with animals and humans alike and meticulously follows all instructions. He’s definitely a dog whisperer! We have 2 rescue dogs, one who is particularly anxious. We gave him a laundry list of what sets her off and Nigel has worked wonders with her- she's become so much better on her walks and we have Nigel to thank. He always sends updates along with the best picture of our pups that really are a delight. Nigel has also pet sat for us and it's well worth every penny. He provided updates throughout the day and was even nice enough to leave our home spotless. We recommend Nigel without a doubt!
Nigel is amazing! He is very professional, reliable, and the best with dealing with our 50 lb. German Shepard/Boarder Collie Mix. Our puppy is very hyper and gets excited easily and Nigel is amazing with him. Since Nigel has been walking our dog we have seen major improvements with his mood and it has helped relieve his anxiety who is a rescue. Nigel takes great care of our dog, provides him with a rain coat if needed, fresh water, and treats, as well as making sure that on hot walks he has water for him as well. Our lives are so much better with Nigel walking Dewd and that we do not have to worry about him while we are at work. Nigel also lets us know when he is picking him up as well as provides us with photos from their walks and an update on how it went. I cannot recommend Nigel and his services enough. If you are looking for someone you can trust with your pet Nigel is that person, we are so happy we found him.
Nigel is a Godsend! He is so amazing with our Princess Frankie. He lets us know when he’s picking her up, he takes photos of her on their walks, he lets us know how their walk went. I trust Nigel with Frankie and around my other dogs as well. He’s very reliable, trustworthy and responsible. I would recommend him to everyone!!
Nigel is the absolute greatest - he went above and beyond for us! I had to move from NYC to Hawaii without my cats, because the quarantine process for getting kitties to Hawaii takes months. Nigel took my cats to the vet for me several times during this process when my roommate could not! He is an amazing person and a great cat sitter who will treat your babies as his own! Definitely hire him!

Wonderful place!!! Had our 8 month old black lab stay here for a week while we were on vacation. It was his first time being away from us and us away from him. They accommodated all of our/his needs and I was kept up to date on how things were going. He seemed to have a great time! Will be using them again in the future and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a safe, accommodating, and fun place to board their fur baby!
My dog always has a great time when she stays here. She is so excited to get out of the car upon arrival. They have a Facebook page where they post pictures of the dog groups every Saturday. Great experience the times I've had to leave my dog.
Very impressive facility. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Their love for animals is clear. Will certainly be using Rutgers Creek again for my fur baby.
This is a wonderful place to trust leaving your pets with. They watched our two Dalmatians last year and we will use them forever going forward. My dogs made friends with other dogs. Loved playing outside with others. They are attentive and care for them as they were their own. Anytime I called for an update they always answer and give me a detailed description. The owner is wonderful and the staff is as well. Highly recommend!!
I have left my dogs here several times and have had great experiences. Your dog is safe, the owners are real dog people, and I only felt the need to reach out once to ask if everyone was behaving themselves. If you follow them on Facebook, you might see your pup featured during their playtime. Kennels can be a super stressful place for dogs, but my nervous shepherd always comes home happy and relaxed. Always recommend.
My dog loved her time here so much she didn’t even get in the truck right away when I picked her up. She was hoping to give me a tour of her fantastic weekend but I finally got her to hop in. There was no shadow behavior after either. We don’t live in NY but I would highly recommend anyone going to LegoLand that needs wants to give their dog a vacation too this resort is it! Traveling with pets can be so hard but we felt really great about our Dog being so well looked after. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating.
First time leaving our 1 year old Golden Doodle. She was very happy and so were we. I will definitely will use them again.
Very clean and friendly staff- can't take that away from them. But they are not very up front about a couple things: 1) Pricing. They charge "per day." But really they mean "per date." My definition of a day is 24 hours. I dropped my two Great Danes off at 5 PM and picked up less than 24 hours later. I was charged $150. I asked if it was ever possible to be charged for a single day at all- they responded that only for "Doggie Day Care" is it possible for a dog to secure a one-day price. So, hypothetically speaking, if you dropped your dog off at 11:59 PM and picked up at 12:01 AM, they would call that "2 days." Called two other kennels before writing this review to make sure that wasn't industry standard. They said it was ridiculous. 2) I asked if they provided bedding, and they said they did. They knew I was boarding 2 Great Danes together in one kennel. They provided one raised bed for a medium sized dog. Would've been simple for me to provide my own had they just told me that. 3) They are open for two 2-hour windows per day, so plan carefully for pickup and drop off. I'm hoping that means "open-to-public" and they attend to the dogs more frequently then that, but I wouldn't put any bets down. Also, they told me a cash price over the phone that was not offered to me in person when I picked up. Not that I had the right amount on me anyway. I assumed, like a normal person would assume, that less than 24 hours fell in the "one day" pricing range. It's a shame. This kennel is near my house and I was looking forward to using them in the future. Nope.
Great staff great facilities always very accommodating to my schedule and dogs needs and just all round good people and aditude. I have always said dogs are a true tell of someone's character, my dog loves these people. I usually have them do my dogs nails while he is there (somthing that he does not welcome) and he still gets upset when i go to put him in the car to leave he truly enjoys his time at rutgers.
Been using Rutgers Creek for several years now. Great staff, great facility and location. My dogs love their time there and the staff treats them like they are family.
