Empty nesters ready to travel
Tricia was great taking care of Veetu. I would love to have her back in future to take care of my house and my pet. Thanks Tricia. I really appreciated your help.
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!
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
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.
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.

We’ve used this place twice. One for a short term (3 or 4 days) and once recently for a 2 week stay. The facility is lovely and everything went super smoothly for the short stay. Staff is friendly. After picking our dog up from the two week stay- I’m a bit worried. Our 55 lb dog- her perfect weight- came back to us at 47 lbs. She had some other signs of stress- dry nose, limp (not too worrying for an active dog that likes to play), and was super lethargic/tired. Most dogs are overweight. Most dog people overfeed, it’s easy to do. Our dog is short haired and slender. Losing 7-8 lbs on a dog like this is not hard to see. I’m not sure how it escaped the whole team’s notice. Her hip bones and ribs were visible. Some dogs are just stressed when out of their environment. When I adopted this dog, I was working at a dog day care in Seattle (which is why I don’t love writing this review). For 1.5 years I brought my dog to daycare. She’s been boarded multiple times at 3 different facilities. It could have been the length of time. But it just seems unlikely to me. In a nutshell- For short stays fine. For longer stays, I just won’t feel safe or good about coming here again. If you are going to use this place for a long stay- maybe just bring your own food and tell them to give them more than what they get at home.
We have found this place to be wonderful and our dogs think so too!! Harley and Joker get very excited when we ask them if they’re going to “school,” meaning a day of play, or “summer camp,” when we board them while on vacation. I highly recommend KPR. The staff is wonderful!
We took our Great Dane 2 week behavioral training, and he came back transformed in so many ways. The on site family training and then the follow up training was great for us to learn and train along with him! The facility is really nice, clean and all the staff are friendly. Absolutely recommend training, boarding, and day camp with Kountry!
Absolutely love this place!! I just came across a picture I had saved from when they were there and because we don’t live there anymore I wanted to at least make sure I left a review because I’m a review reader myself. Our pets had such a fun time and the employees were so kind and they also offer this amazing cologne spray that makes ur pets smell amazing!! We had to buy two before we moved because we were obsessed! If I could give more than five stars we would!
Nice, good staff. Pups are always happy to go and happy dog grins when picked up to go home!
My puppy loves going to daycare!!! She is always greeted with the friendliest staff I’ve ever seen!! I appreciate every single person there and can feel their love for the animals there
Best daycare! My puppy loves going! They throw Pawties and have fun with the dogs! The outdoor area is turf so my pup never comes home dirty. When it’s hot, they have pool parties too. Reasonable prices. You can even do services when your dog is there-nail trim, bath, haircut, etc.
I really can’t remember if I already left a review of this wonderful establishment; but it’s worth another if I did. My wife and I have a spoiled American Bully with an extremely gentle demeanor and this place is so kind to her! We utilize them for - day care, occasional overnight stays and training. The care, cleanliness and love for the animals is the best you can find anywhere! We have only praise and gratitude for their work.
Another money hungry business that prioritizes "our family" (pets) over profit. I needed to book the suite for a trip in advance and they wanted a grand total of $400 deposit. I told them my uncle and my dad were both in the hospital again and that I may need to cancel the trip if anything happened. I asked if they can't refund can they just give me credit for a later day? They said no. I canceled my trip and sure enough, my uncle passed. We have been with them for years and they treat us this way. We have paid them 1000s in birthday parties & boarding over the years but the one time we ask them to be courteous...how dare we? It's not like we asked for a freebee. We asked them to not take our money if our loved one passed and they wanted to make money of that. No morals!!!!!
*** I have never edited a review before but thought it was appropriate today! This is what I got after picking up My Dexter from his bath today. The most happy handsome boy you’ve ever seen!***Thanks for is Dexter’s favorite place to go play with his friends. He has met so many friends there that now we go to birthday parties, training and other various activities for pups. I highly recommend bringing your animals here for baths, their nails, their teeth, play dates, birthday parties, training, and even boarding! The facilities are clean, safe animal and family friendly ❤️
I cannot thank Janet enough for her wonderful care of Sandy. Sandy had a cardiac event while in Janet's care in August. Janet went above & beyond for her, taking her to the vet & notifying us. We were only 3hrs. away & came back immediately, meeting her at the emergency vet in Orland Park. I feel so bad that this happened while Sandy was with her. Janet is a wonderful & caring person. We have used her service before & would use it again (if she would have us). Sandy is doing well now & is on heart medication. Janet, thank you again!
Janet is a great dog sitter. She is very caring and concerned about the well being of pet in her care. She was especially great when Otto got sick. Janet took him to the Vet, kept me up to date and gave Otto his medicine. I highly recommend having Janet sit your dogs.
Janet is great . She kept us up to date with our dog.
Thanks for the 5 stars, Miranda! I really appreciate it!
Thank you!
