Adventurers with a love for simple joys!
I was wonderful to work with Trinity leading up to and during the sit. Macy, my dog, looked so happy in the updates Trinity shared during my trip. And she kept the house clean and the plants alive and healthy. Would recommend her to anyone.

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!

Pets + travel + working remotely = amazing memories!
Alex and Lydia were great sitters! They sent pics of our girl Willow having a great time and left our house very tidy, and even did their own laundry. Super easy to communicate with and very understanding when we had a change in plans on our end. We’d love to have them back!

Professional, kind, mature couple, extensive home-owning & pet care experience
We recently had the pleasure of having Kim and John house-sit for us again, and as before, we couldn’t be happier! Kim is detailed, professional, tidy and caring. Heimo was very happy to see her again which is most important. And there was a beautiful fresh fruit salad waiting for me in the fridge! Thank you Kim :)

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!

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.

Mae and Ted were wonderful! They took great care of our pets and home and we had a lot of yard watering because we had newly planted trees and plants and no rain! We also had a situation where our hot water heater died literally the night before they arrived and they had to put up with that over a holiday weekend until it was repaired on Tuesday. They are professional, very self sufficient and left our home looking beautiful. I recommend them highly for any situation, we will certainly request them again if the need arises. Thanks Mae and Ted!

Complete Peace of Mind While You Travel: Loving Care for Your Pets and Home
Maeve was very communicative and kept us updated on our pups and house during her stay. Prior to her visit, she was very organized with a list of questions so she was well informed before she arrived. The dogs seemed happy and well cared for while we were gone. Recommend her to others.
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!
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
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.
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!

Amy is truly a god sent. When I was told there was no other option but euthanasia for my dog, she welcomed her in to see what she could do with no hesitation. She wanted to see my dog succeed and be better just as much as I did and trained her according to what my dog needed specifically - and even found tracking helps her relax. It made me feel even better that I am chopped liver to my dogs when they are with Amy because they love her so much. Both of my dogs are the happiest they have been in many years because of her. They are able to comfortably be on their places in the house together, and occasionally play with each other outside for the first time in 2 years. My dog used to get scared at the sight of a dog in the distance, now we live in the city and walk on the river walk trail and pass dozens of dogs everyday. I still drive an hour to board my dogs because I know they are safe in her care. Thanks Amy, we couldn’t have gotten where we are without you ! -Jordan
We cannot recommend Fox Hollow & Amy highly enough! We sent our puppy to a 3 week Board & Train when he was 7 months old because like most puppies he was driving us crazy as we felt like he didn't listen or understand any direction or basic manners. My first phone call with Amy impressed me beyond belief as I spoke with other trainers (franchise & private) and could tell her approach was the right fit for our family and what we wanted in our outcomes. Amy picked him up a few weeks later for our scheduled dates and got to know our lifestyle, house, and what we wanted most. We had a list of things but our #1 was recall and our #2 was to get him to stop counter-surfing. Amy sent photos & updates along the way and when he came home he had mastered our complete list. She gave us great instruction on how to make sure we reinforced it and maintained it and has continued to be available for support when we get stuck or feel like he's relapsing. He's a happier dog because he can please us now and we are a much calmer household that doesn't yell or get frustrated with him because we have the tools to tell him what we expect and he has the tools to deliver. The investment is worth every penny!!!!
I CANNOT express how amazing Amy is and the work she does. We have a 3 year old Great Dane who we rescued from a “who-knows” situation. Zeus is dog reactivity and people reactive when he’s inside the home and extremely dog reactive when he’s outside the home. It was to the point where he would see someone pass by the house or a dog would bark and he would explode and jump around and go crazy. Then we had our daughter. This dog would run through the entire house going ballistic every time she would cry or make any noise in general. I lost all hope in him and was ready to rehome him but I let my husband find someone to train him as our last resort. We talked to several trainers throughout the area and Amy was the best person we talked to that we felt comfortable with handling our dog. AN ABSOLUTE MIRACLE WORKER. Zeus has done a complete 180! To the point where I have cried from the videos that we were sent while he was away. He’s still a work in progress but I am beyond thankful for Amy and the work she’s done. It finally feels like we can enjoy our lives and Zeus will have a better quality of life in the long run. Not only that but I don’t live with constant anxiety with waiting for him to have an outburst or for him to freak out when our 2 month old cries. The amount of support she gives is unbelievable as well. I could never recommend her enough! Thank you so much, Amy!
Barbara Love Posting publicly I can’t figure out how to post it- i clicked on the post button and it says I am not signed in??? I signed in through google - I hate technology… Please let me know if this is to long.. this is my first written review 😉 I have a 10 month old Cocker Spaniel that is a BRAT! My puppy, Louie, believed he ruled the house and me!!! Things were of control. I needed help! So I started researching training options. I found Fox Hollow Kennel’s web-sight and they offered in home training. Which is what I thought I needed. I filled out their information form. Amy, the owner, quickly responded by phone and we scheduled an in house meeting the following week. I immediately received a calendar invite. Amy arrived on time! My dog, Louie showed himself right away. During our meeting, Amy throughly explained her training concepts and program while working with Louie. By the end of the hour, my little BRAT was starting to consistently respond to Amy’s directions. She explained I was using to many words which was confusing and frustrating Louie. We decided that a 3 week boarding training program would be good for both Louie and myself - for a reset and fresh restart. While Louie was away I received several email updates and videos! Amy would always responded quickly to any and all my questions. I was so taken back by Louie’s positive growth in such a short time! Louie came home a totally different dog! Amy stayed for two hours making sure I knew how to communicate and work with him. It was very rewarding seeing Louie so calm and responsive to me. Amy’s calm, positive and firm approach is always so respectful of Louie and me. I totally relate to her down to earth and common sense style of training. Louie clearly adores Amy by the way he immediately sits and stares into her eyes during our additional support training lessons. I am so pleased with my experience with Fox Hollow Kennel. Louie is growing into a well behaved young dog and I am becoming a positive trainer/mom❤️
I have used Fox Hollow Kennel for years and have always been impressed with the level of care provided by the staff. These are people who truly love animals and will go to great efforts to accommodate the needs of their clients. I personally drive 2 hours one way so I can use this kennel for my pets and I am happy to continuing to do so. When my anxious dog is with Amy and Jen, she always comes home happy and healthy! Don’t believe fake reviewers who have never used this kennel!!!
I will never take my dog anywhere else! My pup tends to be nervous around new people and has separation anxiety when I'm away. He is happy as a clam when he is with Amy and Jenn! I always hear about how he wants to be cuddled and give kisses to them. He NEVER does that with anyone outside of the family. That's how you know they are the BEST! They will care for your baby like their own!
This is a fabulous Kennel! The owner, Amy, is very knowledgeable about animals. She breeds and trains German Shepard's. I feel completely good about leaving my dogs with her and her family. My Sarplaninac dog was recently spayed. Since she's a livestock guardian dog she is an outside dog. After her surgery the doctor wanted her resting for two weeks. I decided the best way for her to rest, but not have to be crated all day and night, was to go to Fox Hollow. Amy was fantastic with her! She gave her the medicines she needed, watched out for signs of infection. And hand walked her! A lot of kennels won't do that, but Amy went above and beyond the normal duties of a boarding kennel. I've been using her for years now and wouldn't send my dogs any where else. All the dogs go out in the fenced yard every day for exercise and fun. She offers grooming as well. She's a horse woman and I think she boards horses as well! The kennel itself is an older one, but don't let that worry you. It's a safe environment for your four legged friends! My one dog is a chronic run away and he's never gotten loose from here! I really can't say enough about this kennel. I highly recommend it!
Amy and Jenn cared for our pup while we were on vacation, and we were so happy with their service. It was so nice that I could just text them to check in on how our pup was doing, and they would answer right away with updates. They provided quality care, with much attention to detail....we were so grateful for the peace of mind this gave us while we were away. We would highly recommend their service to others. 😊
My husband and I have three dogs. 2 Boston Terriers and 1 Border Collie that thinks she's a Boston Terrier! We have been boarding here for a couple of years now. I always request 1 run, because our dogs are used to sleeping together on trips. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable!!! They care for our pets as though they were their own! We wouldn't board anywhere else! My brother and his wife even boarded their German Shepherds here that were trained for two years in the Czech Republic for 2 years. They trust their care to no one! But upon my recommendation they trusted that they would be well cared for and they were! We have never been disappointed!!! The dogs come home happy, which makes us happy! And they always go to the kennel excited and not scared!!! That proves to me that they are comfortable there! Tails wagging and not tucked between their legs!!! I'm very impressed!!! Thank you for loving our babies as we do! Sincerely, Trina & Wes Haddix
The thought and care given to our fur baby was much appreciated. They knew my dog had a nervous belly and took the time to mix her food and watch to make sure she was comfortable.
Pet Nanny Services is amazing! Stacey has cared for my cat, Kitteran, multiple times over the past few months. Kitteran receives an inhaler twice a day, and she's done a fantastic job earning his trust and managing his medication schedule. I would highly recommend Pet Nanny Services!
Tracie is an experienced pet sitter. You can tell she really knows about animals. Both of my cats are older, and one has chronic kidney disease. I’m very nervous to leave them, even just for a few days. I felt like Tracie would be able to tell if something was wrong with them, which is not easy with cats. Getting daily updates was great, also. It allowed me to enjoy visiting with family and friends without being so preoccupied about whether my cats were really OK at home. Peace of mind is worth so much. Also, her prices are very reasonable. And she does more than just pet sitting or dog walking. The first job Tracie did for me was driving my cats to the vet when I was too sick to leave my home. If you ever find yourself in a bind like that, finding a solution that doesn’t break the bank is such a relief.
Tracie and Pet Nanny Services are excellent. She is knowledgeable and caring for our sweet, shy cat, Sabrina. We are grateful Tracie has cared for Sabrina several times and now our cat is affectionate with Tracie—a true accomplishment. Tracie also sends us much appreciated progress reports and sometimes photos while we are away. This really helps with missing our beloved pet. Tracie does much more to help like getting our mail and also refrigerated an unexpected medicine delivery arriving in the mail. Tracie provides services for dogs and cats. Tracie and Pet Nanny Services go above and beyond other pet sitters!
Tracie has helped us with our cats several times in the past. She and her assistants have been wonderful. They have a true love for animals, are very responsible and go beyond and above. We really appreciate that they take care of little details around our house while we are away and we feel that our cats are cared for very well. Tracie and her team are great and easy to work with and we are looking forward to hiring them again.
Tracie is a very kind and caring person, just the right person you want for your pet! She is dependable and flexible. Her prices are very reasonable. She is highly recommended from Chloe and Stella, 14 year old Minnie Wiener dogs. 🐶 …
I have had the good fortune to be a client of Tracie and Pet Nanny Services for several years. Tracie is unquestionably reliable, responsible, professional, and a wonderful resource for dog behavior and health issues. My dog loves her regular walks and time with Tracie. I highly recommend Pet Nanny Services!
I have been using Pet Nanny Services for the last year and a-half to care for my two Maltese siblings. I have been incredibly happy with their services, but most importantly my canine babies have been too. Tracie and her staff treat them with gentle love and caring, as if they were their own. My Maltese twins are very happy when I come home as a result. The PNS staff members feel like family to us. They have never missed an appointment, and have always been available on short notice. I recommend Pet Nanny Services to anyone in need of care for their beloved pets. JG of Charlottesville, VA.
Tracy Galligher with Pet Nanny Services is amazing. Last year when I had an emergency hospitalization, I called Tracy and she immediately went to check on my two pets. My family lives out of town and if it were not for Tracy and Pet Nanny Services my animals would have been in trouble. Since then she has been just as reliable. Thank you Pet Nanny Services.
My husband and I have used Pet Nanny Services since 2008, and Tracie now pet-sits for our third and fourth dogs! There is no one we trust more with our dogs. Tracie is so dependable, and if needed, she has taken them to the vet when we've been traveling. One time when one of our dogs was wounded by a larger dog, she insisted we take our planned trip, and she took the dog to the vet at least three times during our absence. She is so loving and sincerely cares for the dogs, spending time with them on each visit so they don't get lonely. We and our dogs simply love her and know she'll always be there for us. That's priceless. Beth and Jack Schmid
I've used Pet Nanny Services for years. Tracie and her pet sitters are professional and reliable. Pet Nanny works with your schedule and you can use the services either on a regular or intermittent basis. Tracie's easy to reach by e-mail or phone. I never have to worry about my Boxer when I entrust him to Tracie's care. She's also offered to do other tasks, like bringing in the mail taking in packages and watering plants. Her business is 5 star!
