Sonia
Ovilla, Texas
ResPAWnsible Pet/House Sitter at Your Service!
We would have Sonia back anytime! Our dogs are older now, and require a higher level of care. Sonia took such good care of them, keeping us updated on everything that went on. She was kind, attentive, and tidy. Five stars top to bottom.

Kathryn
Ovilla, Texas
Experienced House/Pet Sitter Excited to Take Care of Your Beloved Pets
I just want to say Kathryn was awesome from the first intro/meeting video to the last day of our vacation. She was punctual, kind and also relaxed, which I think really helped our kitty to quickly get used to her. All in all, because of her we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our cat at home.
Jazmyn
Ovilla, Texas
Animal loving digital nomad
Jazmyn was great! She was flexible with some last-minute hiccups in my plans, was really communicative, and kept my bunnies happy and healthy. My apartment and pets were definitely in good hands!!
Amy
Ovilla, Texas
Single professional who works remotely and loves staying in Airbnb’s!
For our first experience using the app we were very lucky to have had Amy take care of Dozer. From the first Zoom call we could tell that she takes her role as doggo caretaker seriously and enjoys showering puppers with love. She sent lots of pictures and videos so we could relax knowing he was in good hands. He might be spoiled because of all the attention, but I guess that's okay. And she left the place in immaculate condition! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a sitter for their special 4-legged friend. Thanks again, Amy.

Brittany is AMAZING! She is super responsible, communicative, and personable. We adore her and feel blessed to have someone so special take care of our animals. We would adopt her if she’d let us!
Doug
Ovilla, Texas
Retired Traveler
Doug was an overall great sitter, we felt lucky to have him care for Cheyenne and our home. His communication is excellent, always responding to messages immediately. Doug really helped us out when we unexpectedly needed to be away an extra day and he was able to arrange his schedule to accommodate the change. We returned home to a clean house and a happy cat. Thank you Doug!
Reviews from Cat Owners

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.
Hannah
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!
LEANNE
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Monica
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.

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!
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!

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!

If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his 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 him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was 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 Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes 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 within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. 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. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

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!

Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!

My pup attends daycare twice a week and I boarded her for 9 days. I absolutely love this place! They take such good care of my baby. Daycare- She gets so excited when we pull into the parking lot! It’s been helpful for her socialization and energy levels. I love the pictures I’m sent. She falls right to sleep in the car ride home. Boarding - I paid extra for her to have a private room and extra playtime since she was only 4 months old at the time. I recieved a picture every day of them reading her a book at night 🥹 and when I picked her up she was healthy and happy. Grooming - I did the basic bath. her fur was so soft, ears cleaned, and paws trimmed. I added on the bail dremel to smooth out her nail trim. She is an anxious dog . She doesn’t bite, she just gets nervous easily. When I picked her up she was so soft and clean. They’re great at nail trims! I am moving soon and my new place was chosen because I can drop her off here on the way to work. We love it!
Ellis County Pet Resort has taken outstanding care of my dog! I have nothing but trust and respect for this company as an employee and a customer! The dogs are barley in the kennel during the day and the only time they are in the kennel is for meals! There is always someone watching the dogs and the company has a great cleaning process of the kennels to prevent any illnesses going around. Definitely the best place to bring your dog and a fun place to work! As employees at Ellis County Pet Resort our number 1 priority is ensuring your dog is happy and safe! We love to cuddle each and every dog and play fetch with them!
This place is amazing. The employees are the best. Gloria, my dog loves it.
My puppy Silk loves it here. He goes to doggie daycare. He has met new friends. When I drive up to the pet resort, he's excited to get out of the car. Thank you for taking care of Silk when we need the help.
Our pup had his first daycare play date last week. We had met with a trainer there a couple of days prior to this. We were thoroughly impressed with everyone we interacted with at the assessment as well as daycare. The facilities are top notch as are the people. We highly recommend checking into Ellis County Pet Resort!
Fantastic! Took my 2 labs here for the first time and they loved it. Staff was super friendly and informative, pet area was very clean and everything ran very professionally. Will definitely bring my pets here again.
Great facility! Great workers. It's a family owned business doing great work for families, dogs and cats in need!
We take our dog here for each trip. They are extremely good and caring for his needs. Their playtime packages are great and they send daily photos.
Great people working to take care of your fur babies... A little pricy and kinda bougie.
My dog spent a week here while we were out of town. We received pictures daily of him outside playing. I had 2 extra scoops of food in the bag we brought him and there was roughly 2 scoops when we picked him up, so I know they were feeding him according to the directions I left. He was clean and happy when I picked him up. I'll be using Ellis County Pet Resort again in the future.

Know that your fur baby will be in such caring hands when you leave them at Wiggles and Wags! Deborah is awesome with communication and never fails to show how much she truly cares for your pet. Our Juno loves the quality time Miss Deborah spends playing with her during each stay.
Absolutely amazing place to board your dog. Deborah is an incredibly kind lady who is passionate about what she does to care for your furBaby. Bring your own food. Make sure your dog is up-to-date on vaccines. Dogs must be >6 months to stay. The property is so clean, and there is SO much space for your pet to run FREE! ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!!!! 10/10 🌟
Mrs Deborah is amazing with our fur baby! Our girl loves her and her boarding facility! She keeps it clean and is super attentive.
I never worry about my Gemma when she is with Debra. I know she will get plenty of individual attention and care. Debra is amazing.
Great place to take your dogs. Mrs Debra loves and cares for your dogs like they are her own. It is like it is a doggy hotel. They have beds, air conditioning, music. They can go in outside of there room. I highly recommend her.
Ms. Deborah is very responsive and reliable in to needs of clients and their pets. She shows sincere interest in your pets being well taken care of and staying comfortable with her and her clean well maintained facilities. Climate controlled for comfort with air and heat as needed. Safety of your fur baby is extremely important and will not mix pets. Always supervised when outdoors. We have used her services a couple of times and have felt very comfortable leaving our little fur babies with her. This last time was for my wife and I to go on a weeklong vacation out of state. Very good quality with good value and very professional. She sends updates regularly with pictures. I would recommend Wiggles & Wags to anyone that has a need for pet sitter. Attached are pictures of our little fur babies. They fell in love with Ms. Deborah.
Deborah is wonderful! The kennels are clean, comfy and safe. We hadn’t left our fur baby in a good long while, but Deborah made it a lot easier for us and him with how well she cares for the pets in her charge as well as the regular communication and photo updates.
We love Wiggles and Wags!! Top notch service, clean, climate controlled kennels with a doggy door, big fenced in outdoor area for the dogs to run and explore! We use Deborah every time we are on vacation or going on a short weekend trip. She provides us with text and picture updates so we don’t have to worry about them while we are away. The climate controlled kennel really came in handy with our English bulldog, because of his sensitivity to heat. Our schnauzer really enjoys the fenced in back yard to explore in. They love Deborah and we love that she loves them too!
We have boarded our dog with Deborah several times over the past couple of years. This is the best kennel I have ever used! The rooms are clean and Deborah cares for the dogs as if each one is her own. She walks them daily and sends texts with photos of how your dog is doing while staying there. She treats each dog individually as to their needs. Our dog loves Miss Deborah!
Excellent! My dog had a wonderful stay at Wiggles & Wags! Deborah was so great with sending pictures and updates. Her prices are very reasonable. The individual dog rooms are super clean and climate controlled. I was very glad that she required all dogs have all their shots, even though they are kept separated. High recommend!

Darlings little dog retreat is lovely. I feel very comfortable leaving my little dauchsund there. I love the attention and the love that all the animals receive as if they were at home. It's a great place to take your fur babies and not worry.
Darling’s Little Dog Retreat is home away from home. Our 2 doxies can’t wait to go visit Lori while we go on vacation. Lori offers excellent grooming services too. My dogs are happy and beautiful when I pick them up. Highly recommend!
We have boarded our Max since we bought him from the Darlings. You will not regret boarding you sweet babies with them. I feel at ease and at peace when we have to leave Max because they are not crated during the day, they have a nice fenced back yard to play in and gets crates when it’s night time for sleep. It is kept very clean and they play with them and they also have Dauchands that they own there. They will groom them and very knowledgeable with animals. All the dogs they keep has to be up to date on shots , which is great and they keep them on a schedule . You will live then and their home where they are spoiled. Julie D.
I have boarded my two Dachshunds several times at Darling's Little Dog Retreat. They are always happy and relaxed when I pick them up. I highly recommend this boarding facility. It's the only one we use!
Milo has some special needs and I always feel confident that he will be well looked after at Darlings Little Dog Retreat. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lori to friends and family! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Darling's Little Dog Retreat is my go to for my pups. My sweet Tabasco always feels right at home with the Darling crew. He gets so excited when we pull up because he knows he's about to see his friends. His whole body wiggles with excitement! My gentle giant Apollo recently boarded and loved it as well. He fit right in! I love they share pics and videos throughout the stay to keep you updated. Not to mention they're wonderful at grooming. It's hard to find someone you can trust with your pups and I"ve found it here. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
I was hesitant to leave my baby for so Long at a doggy boarding place, but after hearing that Lori and Aaron had started boarding I decided that was the only place I could leave my puppy (3years old) I was right !! My Guinness was well taken care of.. he was played with and cuddled and petted and chatted with, he made new doggy friends.. I was really excited because the darlings posted a video about Guinness and all the fun he was having so I could see that he was having a great time! That he had adjusted to really well to being there and away from us. I will leave my puppy there again if the opportunity presents itself ..
Our sweet pup had the funnest time at Darling’s Little Dog Retreat! Thankful for a great experience!
I truly recommend you boarding your doggie family with this lady and her husband. She has her own little wiener dogs and treats yours as if they were hers. She lets them roam inside and in a fenced back yard that has many little play houses for them to play around, on or around. Has baby pools that’s not full of water but enough for them if they like to play in water. They take care of them big time and will be boarding mine again with them. They play with them as well as feed them and take them out back that’s a huge back yard and fenced in so they can run. There prices are great and appreciate that and all that they do to make your precious family member feel at home. Give her a cal or something to get your loved ones into boarding with them, you will not regret it. Thanks again for all you did for our Max. Julie M Duke
We absolutely love leaving our two dachshund pups with Lori! They treat them like their own and they are always well cared for and happy when we pick them up. Highly recommend!
Willow Run Pet Resort

I do recommend Willow Run Pet Resort. The last time I tried to book an appointment the owner was extremely rude regarding their policy when I attempted to get an understanding. Never again!
Boarded my dogs here after having not boarded them in years and it was a great experience. My dogs came home happy and tired. We opted to have them groomed and they are so handsome and their coats are shiny and clean. We will definitely use them again in the future. It was so nice to have peace of mind that my babies were taken care of while we were away!
Our Muffin has been boarding here for over 2 years and we’ve been pretty pleased with the service here this far. Two months ago I called in and informed them that I’d be running a few minutes behind, one of the receptionist stated to me that that was okay. She stated that I wouldn’t be charged the late; however, once I arrived I was charged. The young ladies are very rude at times and there’s not an ounce of professionalism when addressing a customer concerns. I was frustrated due to their nonchalant attitude regarding the charge and their unwillingness to show any compassion for a customer that had already paid four days for boarding and was only about 15 or 20 minutes late. Fast forward, that issue was remedied and our fur baby continued to board with them over the next two months, at the beginning of the month our pooch had injured her toenail. We stated that we’d like to pick her up so that she could rest better at home after the injury, they refused to let us pick her up. This is yet another example of young kids being unprofessional and not trained in the area of being professional and sympathetic towards clients needs. She was picked up that Tuesday, she was in good shape, and all was well. I called in this morning to board our pooch for next week and was rudely told that we could no longer board with them due to an incident that took place two months ago in which she claimed I hung up on one the young ladies. This was untrue and when I stated that I had since then boarded there twice and there hadn’t been any issues, she rudely stated that we were not welcome to board there. Due to the fact I was a concerned pet owner with questions about my pet’s injury, that they did not have the answers to, resulted in them making a bias decision and shows that they are not culturally aware. We have boarded at high-end kennels for years with no issues; therefore, you guys are the issue, not a concerned client.
Just moved to the area and took my dog to get groomed. She is 14 years old and this is the best she has ever looked coming out from the groomer.
The employee or employer name LT. Very rude does not know how to speak to customers in a professional manner. Advise
This was my first time boarding my fur baby the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable the staff made me feel very comfortable leaving my fur baby
My baby girl first time staying away from home since I got her. She was stressed because it was her first time in a cage. The staff was very nice and friendly. I will use Willow Run Kennels again and they was recommended to me by my sister who was very pleased when her baby boy stayed with them.
The staff were very nice. My two dogs stayed for 3 nights. Over the phone I was quoted 39/ night per dog. On the website the price is 35/dog per night. When I went to pick them up I was charged 41/dog per night so I’m not really sure how to feel about the price discrepancy.
I wasn't informed when i made the appointment 2 weeks inadvance of the all day process to have my dog groomed. I was given a drop of time of 7:30 am. But when i went to drop her off. I asked what time may i pick her up. I was advised her grooming pickup time is between 1-4pm. WOW! That's 8 hours , that's two long , then I was told it would be another $25.00 if i want her to be grommed by herself one on one. I wasn't able to leave her and i wasnt given my deposit back because I couldn't meet that time frame. I assure she would be ready without 2- 3 hours of drop off time. Not 8 hours.
Loooove this place! They’re so friendly and super helpful! Meron is the best !

Cannot say enough good things about Jenna! She genuinely cares about the well being and happiness of my puppy. I had just got a new dog, but my job keeps me gone most of the day, she stepped in and made his life soo much better while I was working! Very trusting sweet person! Highly recommended business!! Will not use anyone else!!
Jenna is the best, my fur babies just love her!! Whether they are home with her, or when she comes to us, I feel secure that my babies are being loved on and cared for! She keeps me updated on their visits and is always respectful and welcome at our house on house calls! She is just the BEST!
I first used Jenna from Howlin' to watch our small dog, Georgie while we were away for the weekend. He likes to stay home because he has anxiety and likes to sleep home, so boarding him was out of the question. She stopped by every 5 or 6 …
