I WILL CARE FOR YOUR PET AS IF THEY WERE MY OWN!
Another great sit with Linda. She even helped us with training Hazel to ignore the dogs next door. Highly recommend Linda—she is great with both the dog and chickens, left the house beautiful, and was perfectly communicative. Hazel adores her!

Retired, nonsmoking couple who enjoy animals and exploring new places
Christine and Mark could not have been more charming or more trustworthy and capable of looking after our cat and our rather complicated home. They were unfortunate enough to be at our home during substantial building works and never made a fuss about this. Everything was immaculate when we returned apart from a leaking shower which was not in any way their fault and which they dealt with very effectively when the need arose. I strongly recommend Christine and Mark as zeewoi.

Caring Companionship for your Beloved Pets and Attentive Presence for Your Home.
Mary was a joy to work with from the start- great communicator & very organized. She developed a good rapport with our grumpy old cat and sent the sweetest updates with photos. It really put us at ease that Sandy was well cared for and not missing us too much! Mary was also a courteous house guest and took good care of our plants and cleaned up beautifully. We will definitely invite Mary to come sit for us again!

Kind, professional, and clean sitter excited to care for your pets and home
I was so happy that I found Julianna to dog sit for me. I would 100% recommend her to everyone. She is everything you could ask for in a dog sitter. She asked the right questions so that she could be prepared and overall put me at ease throughout my vacation. She is also very pleasant and easy to talk to! She is clearly experienced with dogs. My dog took a liking to her the moment she walked in. She fed him on time, spent ample time with him (he is a small, needy yorkiepoo), and even took him to the office. She sent us daily updates on the situation at home and it was clear from the pictures that my dog was having a good time. She was quick to respond when I contacted her while I was on vacation. She even cleaned the apartment before she left. My dog was happy and healthy when I got back. I would definitely use her again!

A “young” retired couple who will love your pets and home while you travel.
Cannot say enough about Avis and David. Avis sent daily updates and adorable pictures of the dogs all together. Communication was excellent and my home was left in pristine condition. The dogs were sad to see them leave. I hope we are able to coordinate another sit in the future and would highly recommend them. Thanks again for your excellent care.

Digital Nomad w/ 10+ Years House-Sitting Experience
Rebecca is very sweet and incredibly considerate. We had a nice long zoom call before confirming the sit and she was easy to talk to. At the time I had two kitties and one was very ill. Rebecca asked thoughtful questions and had so much experience that my stress and anxiety were alleviated; I was grateful to have found her and felt completely comfortable entrusting my kitties and little piece of paradise to her. Unfortunately my Fizzy Fitzy's health deteriorated and he didn't make it. I let Rebecca know before the sit that it would be only one kitty and that he would be adjusting to the loss of his "brother" and companion and might need more care and attention. She was so kind and again, I felt like the universe had sent me the right person. Rebecca and I got a chance to meet as we overlapped by an hour or two on day one; I was so glad to be able to see her in person and give her a hug before I left. I returned after about 10 days to a calm kitty (which was amazing given that he'd just lost his lifelong companion) and an immaculate apartment. Rebecca even washed the sheets and made the bed which was so beyond helpful and appreciated after a tiring trip. Rebecca sent me a long message on the last day letting me know what had been done and showing a walk-through of the home (she's very thorough, which I love), so I knew what I was coming home to down to the fruit in the fridge. Seriously, the place was immaculate! I know you're journeying on Rebecca but I would love to have you sit anytime. Thank you!

Responsible, young professional.
Wesley was our very first exposure to zeewoi and he certainly did not disappoint! What a great experience. We felt safe being gone for almost 20 days while our Leo was in excellent hands. Wesley was excellent at communicating, sending photos of Leo and even describing some of their activities, which made our vacation that much better. He also shared with us that he was enjoying the town and our restaurants which made us happy to know he was doing well himself. Wesley, not only kept Leo happy and well exercised (our mail man said they walked as much as he does every day!) but he also kept our plants alive and kept the house spotless. He even went as far as washing his linens and remaking his room! Definitely a star pet sitter, and I certainly hope he will consider staying with Leo again.

Retired teacher is ready to care for your home and your pets while you’re away
Dave was so great and easy to coordinate with! He was willing to come by a day early to meet us and the dogs. He was very respectful of our place and left no mess behind. He even left a very kind thank you card. He sent pictures of the dogs out on a walk and communicate often. We will definitely have Dave back anytime!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Kerry and Megan were wonderful sitters and took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. They were responsive, gave us regular updates, and seemed to really care about Tumba and Cappa. When Tumba was more timid toward the beginning of our trip and not eating her meals fully, Kerry was sure to ask for additional suggestions from us on how to coax her to eat more. Kerry and Megan also left the house just as we'd left it for them. We really appreciated them going the extra mile to ask about additional cleaning products so they could clean our bathrooms. It felt great to come home and just relax without needing to remake the bed. Thanks for everything, Kerry and Megan! We would certainly entrust our home and kitties to you again in the future.
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!!
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.
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
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!

Taylor is a wealth of knowledge and is a truly talented dog trainer. My pup and I learned so much with just one session with her. Can’t wait to do more sessions. My dog also goes to woof pack 2x a week and he absolutely LOVES it!
We could NOT be happier with our decision 3 years ago to join the Woof Pack family ! Brett, Marissa, Taylor, Delaney & crew have been nothing short of INCREDIBLE! Brett has his dogs that assist with the MEET & GREET to see if your dogs are going to be a good fit for Woof Pack ! #theysmart We started with my two 7 year old brothers & now are TRULY family as we have a baby girl from Sugar Bear (Pollingers' beautiful Golden momma) which was my very beautiful BIRTHDAY SURPRISE ! 👑 We NEVER have to worry when they are at daycare or boarding. They send us updates & fun daily photos (I think their side job is photography 🕺🏻) ! The dogs are SPOILED & LOVED like they are their own! No worries that they are locked in a crate ALL DAY (trust me - we've been there before WP🙈) The house trainings have been SUPER helpful with Brett & Marissa. You get all the tools you need & just keep practicing ! #practicemakesperfect - CANNOT wait for Taylor to come for a house training & help with our puppy !! And now there are 2 Woof Pack locations! YESSS... I go to both! Middlebury & Fair Haven ! I cannot say enough about these doggie palaces! It is like a doggie dreamland! 🦮 On top of ALL that... they are all FUN! I never want to leave at drop off or pickup (haha) ! #wearefamily Thank you to everyone at WP! Honestly, DO NOT know what we would do without you!
Taylor came to our home to help us with our 9 1/2 year-old dog and newborn. She is incredible and taught us so many new things to help ease the transition! Highly recommend.
Today Rosie (my pup) and I had the best training by Taylor Goodrich from Woof Pack daycare and Training . She was extremely knowledgeable, kind and thorough with all my concerns and challenges regarding Rosie’s training. Thank you Brett for letting us have Taylor as our trainer. Rosie just loved her! Taylor I believe you should get 10 stars. Your training was amazing. Thank you
Taylor is amazing!!!! She was great with Max and myself. Very patient and full of knowledge! She helped me feel more confident with Max. I would recommend her to anyone that needs help with their dogs!! Thank you Taylor and woof pack
Ollie, our 18 mo Cockapoo pup- LOVES spending Fridays at Woof Pack! Brett and his team make Woof Pack the happiest and safest place for everyone! A special “Shout Out” to Taylor, she came to our home to help train Ollie and us. We appreciate her expertise, knowledge and patience (with us) Great job 👏 THANK YOU Taylor‼️
Rudy has been going to Woof Pack for a few months, some days and some overnights. We are very happy with the care that Rudy gets when he is there! We gets pictures when he is there that lets us see how he is doing! We would definitely recommend Woof Pack !!
We love Brett and the Woof Pack crew!! We did private training sessions with Brett to work on our new pup who had issues with resource guarding and reactivity to strangers. Brett was so calm and skillful with the dog and humans alike! :) We learned so much about what we were doing right and what we were doing wrong, and how to be calm and confident leaders for our new puppy. Our dog made great progress under Brett’s training and now he is able to be at the Woof Pack daycare with lots of other dogs and humans. I credit all this success to Brett / Woof Pack staff and their expertise with dogs. Highly recommend!!
Brett and his staff are amazing. I have never had a dog that I could board until now. They made it simple and I never worried. The happy pictures of Molly daily were wonderful. An extremely knowledgeable group of people that love their job and the whole facility is extremely clean.
If there were a 10 million star rating on here, I'd choose it. We have a 2 year old German Shepherd, Sadie (she's our fourth GS by the way so this is not our first rodeo). We've had her since she was 10 weeks old. Sadie has never been like any of the other Shepherds we've ever had. The older she got, the harder it got for us. We have another Shepherd here with us who is now almost 12, Boka. Recently, Sadie's behavior had escalated into attacking our poor Boka. The last time she took a pretty big chunk out of his ear. Desperate, not knowing what to do, I called Brett on a Sunday night frantic and left him a message. We thought we were going to have to surrender her. Brett was very quick to get back to us, we met, two weeks later he took her for two straight weeks. He brought her to daycare every day and then home with him every night. Something we never believed in, in the past. Brett would bring her back here from time to time and see how things would go with her and Boka. Seeing him leave with her each time ripped our hearts out, but we knew we were doing the right thing. He constantly had us practice what he taught her - because now that he trained her, he needed to train us. He knew how much we missed her so I would get texts from him of pictures of her almost daily. It made it so much easier seeing how happy she looked in the photos - it was clear she was having a blast. It has been just short of two months. Brett is still checking in with us. Sadie is a new dog!! It's truly unbelievable what he has done with her. She goes to daycare 3 days a week and when she sees him she is on cloud 9. They bonded, he transformed her, he transformed us. We now are able to walk her every day. She's a different dog. She is probably going to end up, with no doubt, being the best dog we have ever had thanks to the hard work of Brett and the team at Woof Pack. I am so grateful and feel so blessed to have these people in our lives. Absolutely amazing!
The owners are great people! I think they like the dogs even more than they seem to love their customers if that is possible.
About a month and a half ago we boarded our 3 dogs at another kennel. I will not name them as many people have used them successfully but it was not a good fit for us. When our dogs returned home our youngest (who is not social) was not herself for about 2 days. I could not find anything physically wrong but she had no energy & acted depressed. One of our other dogs came down with a rash/hot spot and needed antibiotics. All 3 smelled really bad (strong kennel smell) and needed to be bathed immediately. We were planning another short trip several weeks later and didn't want to use the same kennel so decided to give The Barn a try. What a difference! It was a little more expensive but worth every penny. The owner offered to meet us and our dogs before we came. She was competent, professional and it was obvious she cares about dogs, asking lots of questions about them. When we picked them up it was like night & day compared to the last place. They were happy, playful, full of energy and there was no kennel smell. None of them suffered any ill effects from their stay. This is now our go to kennel if they need boarding. I highly recommend The Barn.
My fiance and I were getting married and knew we needed to make a game plan for our dogs for the wedding weekend and for the honeymoon. We have three dogs with all different personalities, one of them being very anxious and weary of new places and people. This sometimes makes it difficult to find a place were we would be comfortable leaving all 3 of our pups. I reached out to The Barn at Off The Hook Kennels and was immediately met with a quick professional response that they would would to help. Booking the dates with them was incredibly easy and you cannot beat their rates, its extremely well priced for what they offer. When we picked up our pups they looked great and were well cared for. They had a great time! We were so happy with our experience and didn't worry once while we were away. Now when we have boarding needs we will for sure reach out to The Barn. This place has everything you would want when boarding your dog, a big clean facility with personal space for each dog, yards to allow the dog enjoyable time outside, great rates and easy booking, knowledgeable owners who understand dog behavior and dog needs. We highly recommend!!!
Safe and secure place for your four legged family members. Clean, safe, attention to detail by people who LOVE dogs. Outdoor runs, days, nights, extended stays, even photos. Too much to list. Call them, take a tour! They live here. Security and safety. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
The folks here are FANTASTIC in their knowledge of breeding German Shepherds! Incredibly knowledgeable and the friendliest people you could ever hope to find. Their boarding facility is first rate !
They are definitely animal people and are wonderful with dogs. They went beyond our expectations to earn the trust of our dog.
Great assortment of unique tacos and a great margarita.
We were Christina’s first customers. We asked her to watch our house and dogs while we went on vacation. She came to every pre vacation meeting we offered so she could meet the dogs, gather her instructions and get a feel for our house. …
Cristina at Bow Wow Babysitters is the best! She took our 8 week old Dane in for 2 weeks (as 2 days after I got her home I broke my foot). She made potty training and kennel training sooo easy for me when we got her back. She socialized …
If I could give 10 stars, I would! We hired Cristina and Bow Wow Babysitters after seeing the incredible results other dog parents had with her training. Our 14-month-old Akita, King, was extremely reactive to other dogs, even losing …
