Ed and Laura were great pet-/housesitters! They were organized and communicative. We returned home to a spotless house, thriving plants, and a happy cat.

Two travel crossed lovers embarking on a year-long road trip!
This was my first experience with zeewoi and I am sold! Andrea excelled at communicating. We met prior to her sit so we could review the house, the pet and everything involved. She kept in touch with me every day I was gone with photos and texts. She even taught my guy to retrieve, something I was never able to accomplish! On my return my boy was clearly well taken care of, as was my house. I would love to have her stay with us again.

Elizabeth was fantastic and we would absolutely have her again. She is a great communicator, checked with us if she wasn't sure, took good care of Lulu, and was overall wonderful.

Not all dog lovers can care for the large breed dogs. You can't just pick them up to fix a problem. And they tend to drool. Betsy was just marvelous with Byron. He likes to get out to walk or ride around in the car. He is a nosy thing. Betsy was able to find his best self. She sent lots of pictures. The house looked the same as we left it. I could not ask for more. We appreciated all she did to allow us to take a vacation without worry.

CONSCIENTIOUS, ACTIVE, LOVING, PET-CARER SEEKS NEW, FOUR-LEGGED FRIENDS
You are always a little bit nervous to leave the care of your house and pet to a stranger for two weeks but after talking to Reba on the phone.,I knew it would work out. She did an exceptional job house/pet/garden sitting for the two weeks she was here. Her communication was great. She always returned texts promptly and sent us texts with updates on a regular basis. This was our first sitter and Reba showed her experience by guiding us through the process. Our house was well taken care and it was cleaned throughly when we returned. This was much appreciated as we arrived back at 1 am after a long travel day. Our cat was well taken care of also and even warmed up to Reba as Sophia can be a little aloof. We also left the extra responsibility of taking care of our garden. She had to do some watering and with cold temperature, cover it also. Thanks to her for doing this. In conclusion, if you are lucky enough to get Reba to be your sitter. Jump on the opportunity. She was FANTASTIC!!

I would higly recommend Rachel for pet sitting. She took great care of my elderly, highly social cat, who needs extra love and attention in addition to requiring daily medicine in her ears. She handled everything beautifully and sent me great updates throughout the week. I'd definitely invite her to sit for me again!

Let me make your time away worry free while I get to love on your pets!
Christina was great! She is a great communicator and kept us updated on Copper and our house. She went above and beyond when our fridge pipe burst too and made sure the water was turned off, and had towels and buckets around the house until we could get home to take care of it. Would highly recommend her for your pet sitting and housesitting needs!

shining my light while loving up on and seeking cuddles from all the fur babies
Brittany was great! I was gone for about a month which is the longest I have been away from my pets. She asked minimal questions and sent me picture updates of the pets throughout my trip which was appreciated. I would certainly welcome her back into my home again to care for my pets.

Looking to babysit the world's most cutest pets ever.
Tammy was incredible with communication. She asked and took daily photos and texts of our pets while we were away. We came home to an immaculately cleaned home (I can't even clean it to the level we came home to!!!) Tammy had dinner ready for us when we arrived home. The night we got home my dogs were calm and confused where to sleep, hence I KNEW they loved her being with them. I cannot recommend her enough! We were truly blessed to have her care for our dogs, chickens and home.
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
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!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
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.
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!
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
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 :)
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.

I’ll cut right to it before I start my rambling. Without hesitation, I give this facility & their staff a 10/10. The Snuggery was HIGHLY recommended to me, by a couple who frequently used this establishment for doggy daycare. My friends repeatedly claimed, their young German Shepherd, was a changed dog (less behavioral issues & WAY more manners) after just a few visits. Although I was told repeatedly, how AmAzInG this place is, I still hesitated to send Winter-The-Meanie-Poo (my new-to-me one-year-old rescue puppy I adopted two months ago, who has very little manners, no obvious prior training, incredible lack of social skills, abundance of attachment issues, an obvious past of abuse & tendency to be fearful/reactive/aggressive) … because I am a total worry-wart-helicopter-dog-Mom. But lemme tell yah, puppy behavior, living in an apartment & the frigid cold don’t mix well - so today I had enough of her chaos & off we went to check this place out. I was immediately (and genuinely) greeted by the sweetest receptionist, the facility appeared clean, organized & didn't smell like a stale pee pad. It’s safe to say, we started off pretty solid. I began expressing my (one million) Dog Mom fears. My concerns span across considerations for Winter, as an individual, as well as the staff that would be handling her. The receptionist patiently listened, reassured me & introduced another staff member, (who was also incredibly patient & empathetic) who then additionally reinforced their capabilities in caring for my most precious possession. Fast forward to pick up. Again, I was immediately warmly greeted when I arrived, even though I was not the only customer being helped. When it was my turn, she stood up with a huge smile & happily informed me, what a perfect angel my girl had been. She then went to the back, (which is visible through a window in the waiting area) where I could easily see her slip the leash over Winter’s head. Shockingly - without a struggle. The positive relationship between the two was obvious & there was absolutely no sign of stress! Blah blah blah - I’m totally rambling. If you made it this far, I appreciate your commitment to my long winded review. Bottom line, take your dogs HERE! Winter is home, happy & EXHAUSTED - just as I had hoped! I truly can’t say enough positive words to describe our experience today. I am SO happy I listened to my friends and chose The Snuggery. We will most certainly be frequent flyers & we hope you will be too!
I’ve boarded my dog here twice and I have had a great experience both times. My dog has some attachment issues, but he’s done well there both times, so I know the staff were attentive and let him socialize with the other dogs. Both times I’ve requested them to brush my dog’s teeth and both times he has come back squeaky clean. I’m very appreciative of the services they provide. I will continue to board here and recommend it to others.
Lisa is hands down the best groomer around! She is so loving and patient with our dogs! Liam was not the best client in the beginning but Lisa won him over and now she is known as his girlfriend ❤️ Thank you for taking great care of our fur babies!!
I have been bringing my golden retriever a few times a week for the last year for daycare. She also gets groomed at The Snuggery once a month. They are literally the BEST!!! I feel like we have really become part of the family at The Snuggery and they truly care about my dog as much as we do! We are so happy to have found such a caring and loving place for her to play!
Our dog Humphrey looks like such a handsome boy after his spa day with Laura, she did such an amazing job on him. He was such a happy boy when we picked him up, we will definitely be returning.
I have my two labs groomed by Lisa at the Snuggery. She does a terrific job and my dogs are happy to go in-which makes me happy and confident in the treatment they receive. I would highly recommend them.
Daisy smelled so good and looked so pretty when she was trimmed. And I know she is happy and they take good care of her during the visit because she prances out when we pick her up.
Lisa is amazing to work with. She truly loves our baby and is always so gentle with her. As she is getting older our baby is getting tougher to cut but Lisa still works with her as much as she lets her. Thank you Lisa for your kindness to our baby and for doing such an amazing job all these years!
I have been going to the Snuggery for eight years, Lisa has taken care of two of my dogs for grooming and does absolutely fabulous every time! My dog goes to day care and boards there when out of town, Karen , Brandy, and everyone take such great care of my boy. I always feel comfortable when he goes there. The Snuggery is the best place for grooming, daycare, and boarding needs!
Lisa does a wonderful job on our doodles and our old lab. They are always happy to go see her and get groomed.
This is absolutely the best kennel I have ever used! The owners are friendly and take time to play with the dogs. They have some large 10’ x 10’ kennels so when our 2 Golden Retrievers go there, they can stay in the kennel together! They will feed them our food and we can bring their beds and toys to make them feel at home. They have 3 fenced off play yards so they have a variety of types of play. When we pick up our dogs up, they run back & forth between us and the owners! It’s as if they are saying should we stay or go home? This is the ONLY place where I have ever had them act like that!
Our two dogs stayed with these folks for three weeks last summer. We're gearing up for another two week vacation this summer and I can rest assured that my boys will be taken care of. The facility is very clean and hospitable. Howl A Day is very affordable, as well. My one boy barked non-stop for the three weeks he was there and Greg had no problem tolerating it. He told me that "Diesel just thinks he's king of the castle around here." That still makes me laugh! We also received 'Report Cards' on our two dogs behavior while boarded. That was such a funny and sweet gesture. Can't thank these guys enough!
Our dog Max loves this place and we appreciate it at as well. We made use of this place numerous times over the last year +. Max seems happy and healthy when we pick him up at the end of his “vacation.” We will continue to be repeat customers for sure.
Great place to take your dogs for boarding. At just $18 a day your dog spends most of the day outside and they play with the dogs and give them attention for no extra money.
Best place for your pets. Well taken care of and loved just like home. Dog needs a nap when he comes back - he’s excited to go every time!
We've boarded our dog many times with Howl A Day and its reasonable price and our Bella is taken very good care of.
My dogs have been going to this boarding facility for several years and always have the best of care and attention.
Just like grammas house, my american skimo dog stayed very well for 2 weeks last during Christmas season, boarding her again this week
Great staff and facilities. Take good care of my dog. Highly recommend.
I think my dog Ozzy should be on the front page of the website because he loves it there so much
