THIS DREAM TEAM MAY BE YOUR BEST HOME, ANIMAL, & COMMUNITY CARE TAKERS! READ ON!
If you’re lucky enough to have Erik and Madison want to housesit for you, don’t think about it twice! They’re the most thoughtful, caring, kind, communicative house sitters you could have and all around wonderful human beings. This was their second time looking after our dogs (and now beta fish too!) and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you thank you thank you Madison and Erik! We hope we get to see you again in Seattle or Spain!

Betsy was amazing. From the first phone call to finishing the sit everything was perfect. We returned to a very happy Tom and a beautiful clean home. Tom was completely spoilt while we were away and is missing Betsy. Communication was superb with regular pictures and updates. If you ever have the chance of having Betsy sit for you. Jump at the chance. We highly recommend her and will have her back anytime.

Experienced pet lover available for long term sits while you're away.
Yvonne was just great. She was wonderful with the dogs, and the house was immaculate when I returned. I hope that she will come again.

Compassionate, energetic and loving care provider
Responsible, reliable, friendly, helpful, resourceful. Some (understandable) family matters may have precluded a chance for her to replace linens (no time for them to dry) and perform a final vacuum in her spaces, but everything else was spotless. Probably tmi; in truth, I completely recommend Claudia and would be happy to see her back again.

Michelle has sat for us several times and is always a great option. We would love to have her back. She is easy to make plans with and took terrific care of our dogs.

Hardworking, happy couple from The White Mountains of NH.
Lynne and Shanye were phenomenal sitters! Pounces cat was so well-cared for and spoiled--I'm sure she didn't care if I ever returned home! Lynne and Shanye were very communicative, texted often, sent adorable pictures of Pounces, and were so accommodating when I extended the sit by a day. They washed sheets and towels and all was in perfect order upon my return. I would highly recommend them. I was so lucky their dates coincided with mine.

An artistic couple who travel often. Kind, reliable, resourceful and delightful.
Doria and Markus were absolutely exceptional pet sitters in every way! They are both kind, respectful people with excellent communication skills and with so much love in their hearts for our two dogs! Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and our dogs were relaxed and clearly well loved and well cared for. Our newly planted flowers were also well cared for and the instructions we left were clearly read and followed. We feel very grateful to have found such wonderful people to house/pet sit for us and definitely hope they will return! We would give them much more than five stars as they are top notch in every way, including being WONDERFUL human beings who bring great energy and joy to this planet! Thank you Doria and Markus!!!!

Kyle was such a great sitter for our two cats, Buffy and Milo, while we were gone for a month hiking the John Muir Trail. He proved very self-sufficient, which was super important for us since we were hiking and out of cell service for most of the time. Something that stood out was his adaptability. A summer storm knocked out power for two days and Kyle took it in stride. Most importantly, we came home to two happy cats and a tidy apartment. If you are looking for a sitter, look no further than Kyle.

Happy, clean, animal loving family!
Sarah and Caleb were great! Easy to communicate with and took excellent care of Banksy. They checked in regularly and left the house clean and tidy upon return. I’d have them come and stay again anytime.

This was our second time having Ciara at our home with Ellie. We had such a great experience we wanted to bring her back. My favorite things about Ciara as a sitter is her quality care of Ellie, daily communication, and how self sufficient she is. She walked our dog almost daily and sent photos updating us on Ellie's activities each day. Ellie had a little bit of a health scare and Ciara stayed right on top of everything + maintained awesome communication throughout. We live on an island and if you have, you know island living isn't always the easiest. Ciara was comfortable with our home's quirks and didn't need hand holding during her stay. Would absolutely have her back in the future.
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
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.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
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!
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
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.
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
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!
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.

I left my dog with pride and joy for what was supposed to be a week, he died on his 2nd day there and I've never been given an explanation. My best friend is gone and I don't know why. He was 2.5 years old and healthy. I'm heartbroken and I'll never trust another pet with a boarding facility ever again. I blame myself for not looking into this facility more diligently.
The only place we leave our Mini Aussie! The people are very friendly and accommodating. They have held her there longer for us when we called to say we needed to extend her visit. We always have her groomed while she is there and they do a great job!
The owner is very nice and accommodating, our dogs love staying there, and the place is appropriately priced. It's a gem, and deserves all five stars.
Our dog is.....well to be blunt, she hates other dogs, and barks at everyone. We were so nervous to bring her to a kennel for a long weekend that we considered cancelling the trip. Two days in I called to see how she was doing, they said she was one of the best dogs they have had and she's welcome back any time. The best part is our dog came back and she was different, she changed for the better. Not sure what they did, but she had a great time, and came back happy, healthy, and smelling amazing!!!!
Brought our dog here for the first time a couple of weeks ago. She stayed 2 nights, got a bath and her nails clipped. She said she was thrilled with the accommodations and would love go back! Seriously, the staff here is great and their prices are very reasonable. We will definitely use them again.
My dog Harlee has gone here for over a year since she was 6 months old for daycare. It is very affordable and sometimes she doesn’t want to leave! She has anxiety but finds comfort at this daycare. They have always been flexible with payments for me because it can vary what days she goes during the week. Harlee loves the owner, she gets so excited to see him every time. Some daycares have hundreds of dogs a day, I recommend this daycare as it’s smaller and less exposed. Highly recommend!
Absolutely love the service and my dog is always excited to go!!
Left my dog for a 2 day stay once. A non-stop cacophony of barking in the back. I've never seen my poor dog so frazzled as after that stay. When employees need to put on hearing protection to go into the kennel area, how do you think that is on a dog's sensitive ears? Any kennel will have some barking, but never heard anything like this before. I assume it is because they are kept close together with no visual separation.
We have taken April (Miniature Australian Shepard) to Pride and Joy several times. The only Kennel we trust and will take April to stay while we are away.
Two stars because the dog is okay now. We left him for 5 days and told them we’re local & to call us if there were any issues. When we picked him up, they hadn’t followed the feeding schedule (1/2 cup morning and evening) because half the food, which we had packaged, was not used. Dog had lost skin on his nose probably from pushing on the kennel door. He was super stressed and had diarrhea & bleeding (vet said probably from stress but who knows?) He had visibly lost weight - his ribs were showing and he smelled really bad either due to the conditions or fear & stress. Due to covid, we hadn’t seen the kennel conditions, but I wonder. Another poster mentioned the noise level of the barking and it was intense for sure. Recommend that you check out the kennel conditions before dropping off your dog and to avoid this if your dog is prone to anxiety
Donna looks after our 4 cats whenever we are away. Donna is caring and reliable. Donna does a great job making sure our cats have food and water and their litter boxes, and the areas around them, are kept clean.
