Thank you Heidi for watching our home and our kitty Sweetie. We came home to a spotless house and a happy cat! I wholeheartedly recommend Heidi to everyone! ❤️
Sheila
El Sobrante, California
Retired professionals who love animals, nature, vibrant cities, & new adventures
As newcomers to zeewoi it was helpful to be able to invite and meet prospective sitters before our trip. Our top of the list pick was Sheila with her wonderful bio and many shining reviews. We were fortunate Sheila and her partner Dan were willing to come see our home and our two young cats three weeks before our trip. We connected instantly and agreed they would be a good fit to watch our kitties and home while we were gone. This was the first time we have left our kitties for more than one night, so we were a bit nervous. Sheila’s experience in making things comfortable for owners and animals put us at ease. Having she and Dan come to meet the cats beforehand was certainly an added bonus! Sheila kindly asked how often we would like photos and updates on the cats while on our trip. She provided the perfect amount of contact by text which allowed us a chance to offer up a few more tips on our cat’s habits during our travels. We could not be happier with Sheila and Dan’s care of our home and our kitties! What a great experience! Everything was spotless and cared for, our cats had new friends and so did we!
Eric
El Sobrante, California
Independent, hard working (from home) and caring. Reliable sitter for your pets.
Eric arrived to the house on time, sent updates proactively and left the house exactly as we left it. He even put the sheets and towels in the laundry without being asked before he left. Would be happy to have him sit for us again!
Helen
El Sobrante, California
Love to travel and love cats!
It was great hosting Helen and Marc! They were very communicative and asked great questions. The place was super tidy when they left, and the cats seemed so well treated when I got back.
Cynthia
El Sobrante, California
Taking my human play-therapy skills to your pets as the pet whisperer
Cynthia and Ken were awesome! Our pups loved them! I am not sure they even missed us… :) House was super clean and tidy when we came back. Plants were taken care of, and they were great at sending daily photo updates of the pups and the bunny! We cant wait to have them watch our fur babies again!
Anna
El Sobrante, California
Bay's 5 star sitter. Reliable, loving and respectful ⭐️
I love having Anna stay. My pets love her and she gives me totally piece of mind leaving them at home. She is pleasant and organized and trustworthy.
Audrey

Audrey was a great sitter for my dog Gunner while I was away! She sent me updates, got in all fine & followed all instructions I provided her, and I came back to a clean apartment. I'd definitely recommend and would ask Audrey to watch my dog again!
Julian
El Sobrante, California
Retired professional gardeners available to care for your home, garden & pets.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.
Flora
El Sobrante, California
Available to lovingly care for your home and pets while you're away!
Flora looked after Molly perfectly. Mols was very chilled on my return & my flat lovely & clean & tidy with all my plats watered. I would highly recommend Flora as a pet / home carer & welcome back for future sits. Thank you Flora.
Lilly
El Sobrante, California
Experienced and zeewoi with excellent references!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Claudia
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!

I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.

The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x

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.
Mary & Shane
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Carrie
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Inma
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Heather
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
Claire
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
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!

Puff and Puff Dog Boarding & Day Care
Recent Reviews:
We are so grateful to have discovered Puff and Puff! Catherine is warm, kind, flexible, and extremely attentive to all the dogs’ needs. Our puppy loves going to Puff and Puff so much, she doesn’t want to leave. I completely trust Puff and Puff and love that our dog comes home exhausted and happy from playing all day with dogs of all sizes and ages. Her experience at Puff and Puff has made all the difference for positive socialization. When you choose Puff and Puff, you get a personal experience with photos, videos, and updates. We love Catherine and all her pups! If we could give her 10 stars, we would! Thank you Catherine!!
Catherine has taken care of our extremely high energy Australian Terrier puppy for both day care and extended overnights. Our puppy gets tons of play in a safe and caring environment with only a handful of dogs staying with her at any given time. Catherine sends regular updates with a big bonus of very cute pictures and videos. The dogs get regular walks on the beautiful Bay Trail and trips to the beach. Our puppy always comes back happy and content.
Puff & Puff boarded my cantankerous 13 year old chihuahua for 3 weeks. She has a few health issues and couldn't travel internationally with me. I was very nervous about leaving her in a boarding situation. She had difficulty in boarding elsewhere in the past. I liked that Catherine insisted on a meet and greet before agreeing to take her in. I was instantly surprised by how calm and clean the environment is. My little dog was nervous to greet the few other dogs but didn't go into aggressive mode, as usual. Puff & Puff always responded timely to my inquiries before and during my chihuahua's stay. Catherine sent pictures and videos of my girl enjoying herself. That relieved my anxiety tremendously. My dog was happy and healthy when I got her back. I highly recommend this service and would feel good about using Puff & Puff again.
Catherine and her husband were fantastic with our dog Bogey. He stayed there for almost 3 weeks. Bogey took a few days to adjust but Catherine was very patient with him and kept us well informed with texts and photos of his progress. Bogey had a very good experience and we would definitely use her service again.
I visited 4 home boarding services before deciding on Puff and Puff, and i’m so glad I did!! Catherine and her husband did an amazing job watching my small dog...to the point where my little one didn’t want to leave! My dog is very particular and hates everyone (and most dogs) but she loveeed staying here. She became really close to their friendly small dog, Bailey. The two were practically inseparable. I honestly felt really bad picking my dog up because I knew she was having such a good time. I also loved getting the picture and video updates of my dog playing and having a blast. I will DEFINITELY be using them again. So glad I found her!
We were very worried about leaving our Puggle for 2 1/2 weeks… He is 15 with what we call “separation anxiety”. He really gave these guys a run for their money 🥴 during the first few days, but they persevered and won his heart! We were so grateful and relieved and now we’re already planning our next trip! 💯👏🏻💗 …

We just moved to the east bay this fall and needed a pet sitter to watch our kitties over the holidays. We felt very lucky to find Rebecca! Rebecca does a free meet and greet where she comes to the house to meet you and your pets and make sure it’s a good fit. This gave us the peace of mind to know our pets would be well taken care of while we were traveling. Rebecca also sends a very thorough questionnaire and will take care of bringing in mail, watering plants, etc if you’d like. We loved the daily update with pictures of our kitties and are sure they were much happier in their own space, seeing Rebecca, than at a boarding facility. Thank you Rebecca!
Rebecca's team took excellent care of my cat while I was away for a week. They had no trouble accommodating my last-minute request for care or my service area (Richmond CA). Someone from her team came by for 30 mins per day to feed, cuddle, and play with my cat and sent me a handful of pictures to show he was doing well after each visit. When I got back he was happy but didn't seem at all stressed or attention starved like he had in the past with other cat sitters (not from Rebecca's team). I will definitely call Rebecca again next time I plan to travel and need some care and companionship for my cat.
I had thought about hiring a dog walker for my girl Penny Lane for years but I didn't feel comfortable handing over the key to my house, and my burglar alarm code, to just anyone. I met Rebecca at a friend's party and she mentioned her pet care business. I needed a dog walker and I loved her instantly and knew I could trust her. Long story short, Rebecca has been walking my dog Mondays through Fridays for over a year and she has changed my life and Penny's life. I feel relieved knowing Penny gets a break when I'm at work and away from home all day, and right away I noticed Penny was more relaxed when I came home from work. Did I mention I have two cats? They are very shy and reserved but warmed up to Rebecca instantly. Rebecca has stayed with my pets several times when I travel and it's such a relief to know I have someone I can totally trust who will take care of my pets! About a month ago I was home while having flooring installed and Rebecca came to walk Penny. Penny saw Rebecca and immediately started leaping in the air when she saw her and it warmed my heart. I didn't exist at that moment! I highly recommend Rebecca as someone who will care for your pet as if it is her own pet! She is the pet whisperer!
My dog, Gigi, loves Rebecca! She connects so well with her. My dog has some unique issues and Rebecca is watchful, observant and ready to respond when needed. Every time I get a message from Rebecca that they've completed the walk, I'm relieved to know that Gigi is in good hands. She also a great communicator, so if any issue arises, she lets me know right away. Thank you, Rebecca!
I am so happy to have found Rebecca to walk our dog! She truly is a gem! Rebecca regularly walks our dog and I always feel relaxed knowing that he is in her responsible, caring and safe hands! I depend and trust her implicitly which is saying a lot! She sends me pictures and updates every time they have been together which always puts a smile on my face. Truly, I cannot recommend her enough!!
Rebecca is awesome! We recently had her check in on the cats twice a day while on vacation for a week. Our three cats were very content when we returned, even the most sensitive girlcat who tends to sink into depression when I am away. All the little tasks were done as we asked and she sent many photos and texts to keep us updated, asking questions as needed along the way. The kitchen was kept very clean and there was minimal post-vacation cleanup needed. We will definitely be having Rebecca catsit again in the future and highly recommend her services.
Finding Rebecca Marlin was the best thing I could have done for my dogs. I’m neurotic when it come to them, and I have always been afraid of allowing someone else to take care of them. Rebecca is kind, caring and truly loves animals. The best part is, my dogs adore her and I don’t have to worry, I know they are well cared for. I recommend Rebecca to anyone who wants their Animals taken care of, better than they would take care of them themselves.
Rebecca did some pet sitting for me...she was good at communicating with me when necessary. She responded in a timely manner to questions. I appreciate her no nonsense style, she came on the days I needed here, the times we agreed on, and did what had to be done. I couldn't ask for anything more!
Quick response, very good communication, followed instructions perfectly, cat well cared for, would recommend to anyone. They also can take in mail, water plants indoors and leave lights on
We came home to 3 very happy dogs after their stay with Rebecca. Don’t think they even missed us!

Emily of Happi Dogs is a god send... Thankfully we found Emily before a big holiday. As things didn’t work out with our former kennel. Now, Polar & Fanta cannot get enough of Emily’s services. We’ve also established an ongoing relationship & feel part of the pack. Emily is very efficient, communicative, and caring. All the qualities you want in an “animal nanny”. We look forward to more memories created with Emily of Happi Dogs. We’re so very satisfied & excited to spread the good word. Yay!?!?!?
Hello everyone. I have four Guinea Pigs that are very dear to me. I would like to thank Emily for being reliable and sweet with my pets while I was away. She followed my instructions correctly and always kept me posted. She did an excellent job.The result was that when I got back home, I found my guinea pigs like I was hoping: happy, properly fed and their cages were clean. I highly recommend Happi Dogs.
Emily and Manish have been great! I was kind reluctant to hire someone off line for dog walking, but Emily and her husband Manish came over to our home for a free consultation and made us feel at ease with their calm demeanor and kind words. The services are also priced well and they are reliable. Now, I love arriving home after work because our dogs are calmer and have had some outdoor time. I highly recommend their dog walking services!!
Professional, caring, and absolutely wonderful with our pup!

Summer Cut for my two Shiatsu Dog’s
I take my dog here every time when she needs her nails clipped, and I always order a bath service for her. Happy every time. Highly recommended. .
Very good with our dog, we'd recommend Nancy and staff for all your grooming needs.
First visit a complete success!!. Our dog was way overdue for grooming & Nancty did an amazing job!!
Nancy is very accommodating. My dog , Appa, would have a very bad matted hair every time I bring him and he will come out very good looking . Nancy is doing a good job.
I'm dog sitting for the weekend and I took my 1 year old dog niece to get her nails clipped. She is a pitbull weenie mix. The staff was very friendly and kind, the dog was very nervous but they successfully cut her nails without any fuss. They only charged $10 so I gave them a tip (SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES) and they helped me very quickly, no wait time today.
I have gone here for many many years with several different breeds and size dogs. I have a Chihuahua that is my everything but when it comes to trimming her nails👹 she turns into a monster. They have done Tayah’s nails for the 10years of her life. I moved 2 1/2hours away and drive down just to have her nails done here.
My dogs are well cared for and look gorgeous when I pick them up! MIA AND JERRY
They did a lovely job with our dog, who got a bath and nail trim. There's no free range space after the work is done, so dogs are in kennels awaiting pickup, keeping them safe and separate. We'll definitely return for future visits.
Called in morning and was able to get my dogs nails trimmed that afternoon. Reasonable prices and confident staff. They used the nail grinder which is what I prefer. Thank you!

I boarded my dog for the first time with Eric and Melissa last because I had a business trip. They took care of my 4 year old Great Pyrenees really well. I’ll definitely be returning!
Melissa and Eric are fantastic! We had an unexpected change and our family wasn’t able to watch our dog during our planned trip and didn’t know what to do! So we reached out to our close friends and they recommended pupstatic and we are soooo glad we decided to go with them! They watched our little pitty Nori for 11 days and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation worry free :) they sent us daily photos and updates which we very much appreciated! A month before our trip we met for a consolation and our dog was nervous since it was his first time away and in a new environment but after a little time he warmed up and ended up loving their house! He was totally comfortable for his stay and enjoyed playing with their two dogs! I am so thankful we had this resource and it was such a peace of mind to know he was at a smaller family business instead of at a huge doggie hotel. Pupstatic is way more personal? Only have a few dogs at a time if any and is much more of a home environment- which is perfect for any sensitive pups! Looking forward to being able to use them again!!
They are amazing with our two doggies. Super sweet and knows exactly what to do…highly recommend to anyone who loves their fur babies as much as we do!

They have taken care of both my dogs and it’s been a pleasure. The dogs love the hikes, love love and the meditation hour and movie night. Maya and her team are A +
Dog's True Dream is the second best decision we have ever made, first was adopting our sweet Pow Pow! Maya and her team are soooo good with our pup. It's been a couple months now and our Pow Pow is already bonded with her. Not only does she offer the best in class daycare and dog boarding, but she also takes the time to work with our dog on small behavioral things!!! She continues to impress us. Most importantly when we get Pow Pow back at the end of the day- he is calm, cuddly, and EXHAUSTED! Maya is committed to her dogs and treats them like family, and even does fun events like a Doggy Halloween Party. THANK YOU DOGS TRUE DREAM!

Great for when you need someone to take care of your pets while you’re away.
