San Francisco area & international sitting.
Betsy was wonderful and we'd love to have her back to sit any time. She was responsive from the beginning, sent us a message when she arrived at our house, sent pics and cute updates on our kitties throughout the stay, and left our house looking great when we returned. Having her sit brought peace and ease while we were away.

Couldn’t give higher praise for Jose. Very reliable, self-sufficient, kind communication. Felt confident in him from beginning to end. And he left my home as clean and tidy as it can be. Thank you so much, Jose!! You are a golden member of this zeewoi community

Reliable and Experienced Couple Ready to Help You Out
Tim and Julie were great. The numerous pictures and communication assured us that our dogs were being well taken care of which allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip. As an added bonus the house was in great shape when we got home. If you could give 6 stars I would.

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.

Zero complaints. Way better than expected. Super friendly and responds fast. We talked alot about travels etc, not just about the sitting. Would recommend 10/10.

Cat Lady Who Loves Dogs Too
My dog loved Elisabeth from the moment he met her and that was really all that mattered to me. She really understood what my dog needed especially since he can be a little reactive and needy at times. He was very well cared for and I hope she’ll come back to stay here again.
Laguna, California
Mature and Dependable Fellow Available for Home and Pet Sit
Glenn was communicative and kind; made sure we felt comfortable with his sit and sent photos throughout his stay. Pups were well cared for and so was our home.
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
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!

This place is amazing. My 11 mos old standard poodle loved his first visit and the prices are reasonable. The staff is great with the dogs. Also, we love that we can watch our dog live online all day. We will definitely make the Dog Ranch our dog's permanent day care and boarding moving forward.
Located in lagoon canyon is secret getaway for your pets to have a better than great day at the ranch. The entire grounds are always very neat and clean. The players are very well shaded it's trees resting areas platforms large pool with waterfall surrounded by the deck and entire ground play yard is carpeted with astral turf That's what I like no dirt. We have special care needs for your pets be a therapy massage hair trim or nail trim or just plain cuddly they're here for your pets shuttle service is available, thanks to the owner for developing such a great pet resort & spa
Dog Ranch Bed & Biscuit is a wonderful place to take your dog for day care and overnight stays. They take incredible care of your pup and keep the place immaculate. It is like Disneyland for dogs with wading pools, lounge chairs, spritzers in summer and lots of places to relax and run. It's perfect for young and old dogs. We have taken all of our dogs over the past 18 years to Dog Ranch but our youngest husky Roo is absolutely crazy about this place. He was an abused rescue dog when we got him and the Dog Ranch staff worked hard to slowly introduce him so he felt comfortable. Now when we pick him up, he doesn't want to leave! We also have great confidence in the way the staff takes care of our dog overnight. If your dog needs special care with health issues, they will give them supplements and multiple feedings. We HIGHLY recommend Dog Ranch Bed & Biscuit to everyone!
We are SO GLAD WE FOUND THIS PLACE! We have a super friendly, super playful 80lb pit bull, and we tried several other daycares prior to finding Dog Ranch. Here are the three things that make Dog Ranch stand out from most other daycares: 1. Their facility is mostly outdoors. 2. They offer assistance with routine vet care (for a very reasonable fee they will take your pup to get routine immunizations, etc.) 3. Most importantly, their staff seem to ACTUALLY LIKE AND CARE ABOUT DOGS. The other daycares that we tried for our pup first were indoors, the staff was young and did not seem to particularly like dogs or care about reinforcing good behavior or any other behavioral training…and our pup would come home more wound up then when we dropped him off. Upon further investigation (watching the cameras) we realized that they were just putting our dog in “time out” which was an isolated kennel for the majority of the day, presumably because they didn’t want to deal with his energy level. At Dog Ranch, the staff seem knowledgeable about dog care and handling, and it was very obvious they were taking the time to work with our dog during the day. His behavior actually improved as he spent more time there. Bottom line, if you have a large dog with high energy, this is the place for you. Also, if you have a dog you care about and you want to leave it with other people who will care about it, this is the place for you :) Shout out to the awesome staff, Jose, Vicki, Ashley, Eric, and everyone else!! We <3 you guys!!
We love the dog ranch. I’ve been taking both of my dogs there since they were puppies and they love it there. The staff is amazing and I never have to worry about the kind of care they get after dropping them off. They have plenty of caregivers and it’s great that they offer overnight stays and grooming services as well making it a one stop shop. It’s also great knowing that I can travel without worrying about what to do with my dogs. They know everyone there really well so they don’t feel scared, abandoned or worried while I’m gone. I’d give this place 1,000 stars if I could!
At first you have a good impression of this place because is well located, nicely done and clean. But once an emergency happens with your dog, at a place that you at least hope to be a "safe dog environment", it really changes the picture. During a family trip, our dog suffered a serious "attack". "Attack" because still not clear of what happened but I am having my conclusions based on the veterinary report, provide by the veterinary clinic, which Dog Ranch has a business agreement and I am also a costumer of the same clinic. There was only a call from Dog Ranch, a day after the incident saying our dog felt and hurt his back. We got desperate for the last minute call, because it was a Saturday afternoon and they were closing in few hours. Fortunately, I was able to book a charter and we arrived on Sunday morning. Eric (the facility bouncer) made even more difficult for us to get our dog of that place, because he wouldn't open the door on Sunday for us. Even having staff at the location and of course this was an emergency case. Our dog should also stayed isolated because of risk of infection and because he had a SERIOUS injury. But instead, they kept him running around 30 dogs, a day after his surgery. I would assume this was at least part of their protocol in case something like that happened but apparently not... So on top of all stress, we still had to find a person available to pick our dog in 2 hours and board him overnight. Our friend was able to get our dog on Saturday and stayed safe until we arrived. Dog Ranch took all decisions, did all procedures and released our dog from the vet facility without our consent or authorization. Dog Ranch also "tried" to contact our number right after the incident but they had a "wrong number". Luckily because of a act of God, they find our number and called us a day after all happened. Long story short, we go hit by a vet bill and a bill from the boarding. Bottom line, keep your dog out of this place.
Place is nice. But if you leave them overnight the people that work their leave the dogs no water in their cages for your dog. That's illegal. Someone should investigate them. I would never leave my dog overnight again.
I used to provide IT services to this company, and I can truly say that the staff loves their jobs and the animals. They take great care for the animals and overall I'd recommend the place. Stephanie and her team are amazing!
OMG our dog has such a great time interacting with other dogs....swimming in the pool...and the staff was exceptional!! What a great experience right out the door, will do this at least once a week!
I was extremely impressed with the dog ranch. Very friendly, competent and well organized. My 9 year old German Shepherd loved it.
Kathleen has been taking care of my cats when I travel for a few years now and they absolutely love her! I love that they are being loved and cared for while im gone by someone I can trust and who loves them just as much as I do. She spends time playing with them as well as the feeding and litter necessities and sends a detailed visit summary of how they were and what they did with photos and videos every day. I don't feel like I need to worry about them at all when she is taking care of them.
I am 100% satisfied with Kathleen and The Pet Sitter team! My cats are always content and calm after pet visits. I enjoy receiving detailed reports and photos of my furry family, busily chasing toys and having a good time. Kathleen knows my cats so well, and she will point out anything unusual or let me know if the cats were in a particularly good mood that day. I feel comfortable leaving the cats in the capable hands and care of The Pet Sitter team!
I trust Kathleen and team to walk my energetic pups, and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She is incredibly professional and clearly loves dogs. Her team took the time to get to know my dog's personality and needs. She is attentive, ensuring my dog has a great time while also being safe and well-behaved. I also appreciate the flexibility with scheduling. She is able to accommodate my requests and is always punctual. Overall, I highly recommend the Pet Sitter to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.
I have been using The Pet Sitter for years and go away and feel very confident that my pups are well cared for. The follow up with the photos after each visit with all the details about the visit are what I like the best. Kathleen and Barbara both take great care of my Aussies, who I consider to be very high maintenance, very active, very verbal.. lol.. I trust them in my home and with the care of my precious dogs Avalon & Pax.
Kathleen/The Pet Sitter is an absolute blessing! We chose her after observing her with several of our neighbor’s pets. It was apparent how much she truly loves her job. She is thorough and takes the time to get to know your pet and their needs and follows up every walk by sending a text and/or photos. My dog loves her! She is prompt, reliable and flexible. We trust Kathleen and would HIGHLY recommend The Pet Sitter.
Kathleen is a GEM 💎💎 We needed a pet sitter for our 2 large lab puppies and she really gave them the best care! Before we locked in our pet-sitting dates, she came over for a meet n greet, and got to know their routine, their favorite route to take a walk, and took notes about every detail. We received text updates and pics of our boys while we were away, which we really appreciated! You can tell that she puts her heart into her work and cares about the well-being of the pets in her care. We will definitely be using her services again and can’t recommend her enough!! Just look at those happy faces 🥰🥰
We have searched high and low for a qualified, loving doggysitter and Kathleen does NOT disappoint. We’ve gone through difficult times health wise and she hasn’t missed a beat when it comes to our visits. Grabs the mail, walks out pups, fills their water, picks up the poo; you name it. It’s wonderful to have a reliable and loving support system in Kathleen. We are grateful and you will be too! ❤️
Kathleen is amazing and we couldn't ask for a more attentive dog walker for our dog. It takes him awhile to warm up to new people and he immediately accepted her into the pack. She does regular check-ins and we look forward to her updates. Honestly couldn't had asked for a better human being- we feel so lucky to have her in our lives. Dependable, down to earth, kind, caring, passion for animals. Thank you again Kathleen for all your work with Sparky! Already have referred her to other people!
Kathleen is by far our first choice when we need a pet sitter. We have used her service on multiple occasions. During that time, Kathleen has stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving the dog, cat, and house behind. One of our favorite parts about Kathleen’s service is receiving the daily videos/pictures along with a nice text of what went on for the day. Kathleen is trustworthy, and our pets love her.
The Pet Sitter came very highly recommended from our apartment complex. Upon meeting Kathleen, we instantly felt comforted that our 2 huskies were in highly capable and caring hands. She asked very detailed questions about the dogs’ routines and behavior…things we don’t think twice about as pet parents since they’re just part of our daily routine. Kathleen went above and beyond in her care for our pups. She played with them, gave them massages, left them with plenty of treats (which made the pups happy!), and made sure they were happy/comfortable as can be. She loved them in our absence and sent us daily photos and check-ins. Honestly, what more could a pet parent ask for? We couldn’t be more appreciative of having Kathleen in our life.
We love Paige and Brad! They have taken loving and gentle care of our Cavachon pup Milo and our Highland Lynx cat Moby for years. Milo loves his walks and adventures with Paige- sometimes I get photos of him in the most picturesque settings ( the beach ! A hike with a view! Sometimes just the neighborhood) and on occasion he gets sleepovers with Paige and Brad. Moby is a stay at home cat but always loves Paige’s visits and playtime. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to ensure their pet has the best care in the world.
We love Paige and Pura Vida. She has taken excellent care of our pups for three years, staying at our home while we are away and making sure they are safe and happy. She even knows to send me a picture because I’m missing them. She is been 💯 reliable and I hIghly recommend Pura Vida. …
Pura Vida Pets is the best! Paige takes great care of my cat, Archie, when I’m gone - I love getting cute update pics from her :) Knowing Archie is in good hands and is getting his medicine daily gives me great peace of mind and eliminates some of the stress of being away from home. Highly recommend Pura Vida Pets!
PURA VIDA is the best!! Paige and Brad are the perfect people for this kind of job. They take great care of our doggies, and they are always available to help. Reliable service and great customer service. Highly recommend Pura Vida Pets ♥️🐾 …
Paige LOVES her job and is excellent. She’s been watching my dog for 1 year and am thrilled. She’s flexible, reliable and so very easy to work with!!
