Melquea
Groton, New York
Quirky couple in love with pet snuggles & belly rubs, while keeping a tidy home
Absolutely adored Melquea! Her energy and dependability are out of this world. Her and James took such good care of Oatly and our apt. It made us feel reassured that Oatly was in good hands and well loved. Thanks for everything, I hope we can meet next time and do another housesit!
Meredith
Groton, New York
I speak kitty!
Meredith has sat for me multiple times now, and every time is perfect. She communicates well, takes great care of the dog, and leaves the house impeccable. I highly recommend Meredith!
Brittany
Groton, New York
Remote Working Animal Lover
As a first time user to the app and a generally anxious person- our first housesit was causing me quite a bit of nerves- which all faded the moment I “met” Brittany over a FaceTime call. Her friendly demeanor, experience with animals and openness immediately eased my mind. Brittany is flexible, easy to communicate with and quick to respond to messages. She was instantly friends with our sometimes grumpy elderly dog, and our young dog was thrilled to have a playmate in her little dog, Nala. Our old house has some quirks, and the pool has maintenance all of which she took on without batting an eye. We received updates and pictures over our two week trip and returned to an absolutely spotless house, complete with freshly laundered linens and bath mats. Our animals were calm, relaxed and happy. We would be thrilled to host Brittany again and anyone who has the opportunity to have her house sit for them should consider themselves hugely blessed!
Jared
Groton, New York
Your place and your pets will be in good hands...
Jared was extremely thorough and kind. He covered all topics when we first met on the phone, sent updates throughout the sit and was very open to things schedule-wise, especially when my plans got changed/delayed. He left the house cleaner than I left it and left my dog with a great sendoff, caring for her right to the end. No complaints whatsoever; I'd highly recommend him.
John
Groton, New York
Looking forward to meeting new people/pets. As a retiree my schedule is flexible
This was the second time we used John as an extended house/pet sitter, as he is a mature, responsible pet lover who takes his responsibility seriously. Once again John did a wonderful job, communicating regularly with us while sharing pictures of our cats. We'd recommend John very highly to anyone considering him for a house/pet sit.
Alaina
Groton, New York
World traveler & experienced pet-sitter, seeing where my travels take me next!
Alaina was a great sitter and she got on with Patsy my dog straight away. Everything went smoothly and she was always available when I messaged. On my return, later than I expected due s flight delay, she managed to keep some unexpected visitors happy and cooked me a nice meal to welcome me home. I would be happy to recommend her 100%.
Bill
Groton, New York
Reliable to the Point of Boring
Bill and Sandy are awesome catsitters, housewatchers, and most importantly, people. Ernie took his normal two days to decide they were ok (I think that's how long it takes him to give up on me ever returning), and after that, he was literally eating out of the palm of their hands. And once you are cat-approved, you're golden. My house was spotless when I arrived (by pre-arrangement, they left around one hour before I got back home). Everything was where it belonged, and the place was clean. Before and during the sit, their communication was on-point. They arrived when they said they would, had already done some research of the area, and let me show them around a bit. If our schedules ever line up and they apply another time to watch the little guy, I would simply confirm the dates, accept them, and write 'thanks, but this sit is taken' notes to the other applicants. If they apply for one of your sits, you would be well-served to do the same.
Angela
Groton, New York
Animal Rescuer & Rehabilitator | Experienced Petsitter | Barn Manager
We were delighted with Angela. She was a great dog sitters and I think the dogs didn't care that we came home because she gave them lots of attention. The house was in good order and she made sure packages were picked up from the doorstep. Dog doo in the yard was picked up when we arrived home and the house was neat and tidy. She made herself at home--that's what we wanted and she enjoyed getting to know her.
Kerin
Groton, New York
After raising 4 kids, I am ready to take good care of your precious ones!
Kerin provided exceptional care for our dogs while we were away. From the start, she was thorough and attentive, asking detailed questions to ensure she understood our dogs' needs. As first-time users of Zeewoi, Kerin patiently guided us through the process, easing any concerns we had. Her dedication was evident when she visited the day before our trip to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our home. She handled our strong-willed Pyrenees, Wally, with ease, showing great patience and understanding of his quirks. Throughout our time away, Kerin maintained open communication, keeping us informed of any developments or concerns. Not only did she care for our dogs, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning our house, even folding a load of laundry left in the dryer! And all of my plants are thriving! Thanks to Kerin, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in capable hands. Upon our return, it was clear they had been well-loved and cared for. We are incredibly grateful for Kerin's exceptional service and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dogsitter.
Margie
Groton, New York
Happy Traveler
This is Margie’s 2nd time taking care of my Kitties Frankie & Fife. She is so wonderful with their care, sends me photos to ensure they are in great hands. My house was spotless upon my return and I’m very happy with that I found Zeewoi and Margie. Thank you again, Melanie
Reviews from Cat Owners
Anne
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Oliver
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Sean
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Manuela
strongly recommend Christine and Phil to housesit for your kitty. Our pets, Babbles and Cousin Eddy, and property, were in very good hands while we where away for two weeks. They had a fair amount entailed with two cats on different food and needs. Cousin Eddy, or Edoardo, is a barn cat we recently adopted. Eddy is very sweet and stays outside but hangs out the side door wanting to be petted and fed; Bubbles is an indoor cat. Both cats were spoiled by Christine and Phil! Christine and Phil were also very caring and attentive with the needs of our Airbnb guests. During the time we were away they kept us updated daily (including photos of the cats). When we came home, our house was perfect, with lovely fresh flowers, notes for us, and our cats had been well-cared-for. They are wonderful house sitters, and we highly recommend them. They were Five-star sitters of our house and cats!
Joanne
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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!
Will
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
gretchen
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
danica and ajit
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!

Dazzling Dogs Grooming
Recent Reviews:
My parents took their dogs to the groomer and was told they were black listed, due to the owner saying they were late and they were having a hard time pulling up paper work on one of their dogs. And when asked if they could use the WiFi they were told I don’t know the password. How do you not know the password to your internet? My parents left and I’m just putting it out their both my parents are disabled and really the added stress has them both not feeling well. I used to cut hair for a living and I never turn people away for being late.
So thankful for this business and these wonderful women. As an anxious pet parent, it can be difficult to trust your beloved animals in the care of others. I have been going to Dazzling Dogs regularly for many years, and Amber and her crew are not only skilled and professional - they are warm, compassionate, kind, and loving humans who I trust wholeheartedly with my dogs. I cannot recommend them more. 🤍
We have been here several times and owner always does a great job with our dogs! However, the last appointment we had I honestly forgot about and we no showed. I called the owner the next day realizing my mistake, no return call. Followed up with another call and message through Facebook and still no return call or message. We were established customers with no previous history of no shows/cancellations. 1-star for this kind of attitude toward returning customers over a one - time honest mistake. We will be going elsewhere from here on out.
I’ve been taking my two dogs here for years and they always do a great job at a fair price. I also love the photos they take and post to their Facebook page.
I’ve been a customer for years and moved last year. I miss Amber tremendously. Small town groomer is so missed especially the caring attitude. I take my dogs to a city groomer and only spoke to the groomer once. Dropping and picking up is only through receptionist. Amber always did a great job on my part Golden’s. People wanted to know who was my groomer and the kennel too. The dogs always looked great , happy and puppy looking after a day with Amber. Wish I could commute. A very satisfied customer out West.
I had gone to this groomer several times when they were located in Dryden NY. I have 4 boxers. I called today and asked if there were any appts. for today for just a shampoo. My dog is a boxer so there is no hair to cut and I take care of my dogs toenail myself. I asked how much would it be. I was told total of $30.00. When I went to pick my dog up I was told the price is $43.00. I only brought $38.00 as I was giving a tip. When I questioned why was I told one price and now being told another? The girl there said “no I told you $40 plus tax. I responded with , you only shampooed my boxer. You did not trim her hair because she has natural short hair, you did not not cut her nails or anything else and had you told me the price would be $40, I would not of booked the appointment or traveled to Groton.I would have taken my dog to the other local groomer in Dryden. The girl responded Amber was standing by me when I gave you the price . Well I had to go all the way back to Dryden to get more cash . I will never go there again .
The owner is very rude and sarcastic. This was our third visit and our last. first two visits we were told one price and got there and had to pay more. She explained to me why she charged me the extra and to avoid a confrontation I just paid it. This last visit (today) i was quoted $40-45. Got there today and it was $54 dollars becuase my dog had a "behavioral" problem. Both of the other visits she never mentioned a problem other than my dog seemed anxious. I didnt see "behavorial" problem on her price list. Seems she can charge you whatever she wants.
Owner and her assistant were very nice. Showed great care for my dog jack and she never looked better when I picked her up. Always going there.
Amazing service, would recommend 100%. Harley is definitely coming back soon.
Very friendly, affordable, gets the job done right, is always good with my dog and any other!
