Nicole
Hastings, New York
Caring, reliable, retired teacher exploring the world.
Nicole was fantastic! She was super clean, organized, easy going and took great care of Milo! He was very happy to be in her company. She was easy to communicate with and provided appropriate updates. I can't say enough great things about Nicole.

Hastings, New York
Your friendly neighborhood art nerd, out to explore the world.
Rebecca was fantastic with our home and our boy. We came home to a very tidy and clean space and Judd was very happy :) Would absolutely have Rebecca back!
Jared
Hastings, 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.
Olivia
Hastings, New York
Caring and kind house sitter, ready to pay attention to your special animals
Olivia was fab. She looked after Licky the cat like the matriarch queen cat she is. Would definetly recommend. Thanks Olivia.
John
Hastings, 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.
Bill
Hastings, 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.
Julia
Hastings, New York
Animal lover, outdoorsy, and aspiring engineer hoping to experience new places
Julia was the perfect pet sitter. She contacted us in advance to make sure she had all the information she needed about our dog and our cat. While we were away, she sent us regular updates and pictures of our pets. When we came home, the house was clean and tidy. Julia had even washed the bedclothes and remade our bed for when we returned. She was always polite, and after we returned our dog sat happily at her feet. We have no reservations about recommending her.
Sharon B
Hastings, New York
My favorite days are spent lending a hand in the company of animals.
I highly recommend Sharon & can’t think of anyone I’d rather have stay with my pets. She is wonderful & did everything in her power to make sure we had an enjoyable trip before she even arrived. We came home to a clean house & very content dog. From first greet at the door, it was like Cleo had known Sharon for years. He can be a little bit standoffish sometimes, so that says a lot about her. He was treated like a king. Sharon was focused on Cleo & took the time to do all the activities he loves to do everyday (a long list) & provided lots of updates. Cleo is obviously disappointed. Sharon has left. Hoping she will come for another visit soon!
Chelsey
Hastings, New York
Respectful and friendly animal lover in pursuit of global adventure!
Chelsey flew to Oregon to care for Lucy for four days and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She came a day early like we requested and we so enjoyed getting to know Chelsey. She is a delight…funny, caring and very warm. Lucy immediately fell in love with her and even slept with her the first night when we were still home. Chelsey took Lucy on many adventures…to the mountains, the coast and even paddle boarding on a local lake which she loves! Chelsey kept us updated with photos and texts. When we got home every thing was tidy and in order and Chelsey left us a lovely note. We highly recommend Chelsey for your next sit. In fact we are hoping she returns to be with Lucy again!
Reviews from Cat Owners
Elizabeth
Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!
Daniel
Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
Marc
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Tiffany
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!
Stacey
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!

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!

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!
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!
Francine
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.
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!

Recent Reviews:
Emily came to our Girl Scout meeting and did a presentation for the girls. They learned signs of a stressed dog and what resource guarding is. This will hopefully help them to not be bitten by a dog. She also explained to them how to become a dog trainer and the different places she could work as a trainer.They concluded with a fun game of Jeopardy and she even managed to get them all to talk, which isn't always easy with 9-12 year olds.Our troop highly recommends having Golden Hour out to do a presentation for your group/troop.
My daughter had the best time at the Golden Hour Dog Training dog safety class. Emily was fantastic with the kids, keeping them engaged while teaching them all the best pet practices. My daughter left and told everyone she knew all about approaching dogs safely because of this learning experience. Definitely consider taking your children to one of her classes, or reaching out for dog training needs!
My daughter took part in a Paws for Safety class, Emily did a great job creating a fun and successful learning experience. My kiddo learned tons of strategies she can recite and practice and she even now wants to be a dog trainer some day! Emily was very engaging and clearly loves what she does!
I would highly recommend Golden Hour Dog Training to anyone who is looking for a trainer for their furry family members. My doggos have made significant progress in our training goals in just a few sessions and we are looking forward to continuing our learning with Golden Hour. It is clear that Emily is passionate about dogs, her business, and relationship building with clients. 5 + stars!
Emily goes above and beyond for our dogs. They always get so excited when she comes. She has the most fun ways of training for us and our dogs. You can tell she truly has a passion for animals and it shows in her work
Emily was very informative and helpful with our senior rescue pup. I can tell she is passionate about what she does and really cares about doing what is best for her clients.
Emily offered a wonderful dog safety course for kids at our local library. Her presentation was informative, interactive, and very fun for the kids! They were proud to receive their certificates and really enjoyed their goodie bags!
I am so happy that I found Emily at Golden Hour to help us with Pugsy. She has helped us so much with his anxiety and reactivity. Her enthusiasm and knowledge were evident from day 1. Not only has she helped us to help Pugsy, but she has equipped us with strategies to use going forward.
Emily has worked hard with her dog Ruby in order to share her love of dog training with the world & it shows. My bandit needed some serious leash work. Emily was able to not only show my pup the way, but me too. I had no idea I was doing anything "wrong" per say (idk how else to explain it) until Emily showed me a different way of doing something as simple as a walk. Not only did she work with me on that but she also helped me to teach my boy outdoor recall which is something we struggled with when other people are in the mix (at the mailboxes for instance) She taught me how to properly reward & when to reward and it was like I have a whole new dog!.. Thanks Emily & Ruby for showing me and my boy how to work together with patience & love & how to get it right! If you have any doubts on personal/group training - look no further! You will not regret it and also her rates are sooooo reasonable for the care & love she provides to you and your needs.
