Timothy
Pownal, Maine
Dependable, trustworthy, empathetic, caring.
Tim was an excellent sitter from start to finish. He was kind, organized, and followed through on all home tasks. The house was very clean on my return, and my plants were thriving. I'd love to have him back and anyone would be lucky to have him! Thanks Tim!
Alanna
Pownal, Maine
Full time traveler experienced in caring for rescue dogs and cats.
I am so fortunate to have found Alanna to take care of my cat while I went on a nine week trip to Mexico in my van. My cat was a little more complicated to care for because he was diagnosed with IBD just before I left. He thrived under Alanna’s care. He almost gained a full pound while I was gone, which is amazing for a cat with this diagnosis. It’s speak volumes about Alanna as a care provider. She was 100% attentive to all of his needs. She sent me pictures and communicated with me almost daily. I really can’t say enough good about her. She was neat and clean and took such great care of my condo, which is a second home, that she is welcome to come back anytime to stay if she wants to vacation in Seattle. I think my cat misses her. I’m POSITIVE that I miss her. I hope to see her again in the near future!
Claudia
Pownal, Maine
Compassionate, energetic and loving care provider
Responsible, reliable, friendly, helpful, resourceful. Some (understandable) family matters may have precluded a chance for her to replace linens (no time for them to dry) and perform a final vacuum in her spaces, but everything else was spotless. Probably tmi; in truth, I completely recommend Claudia and would be happy to see her back again.

Michelle has sat for us several times and is always a great option. We would love to have her back. She is easy to make plans with and took terrific care of our dogs.
Lacey
Pownal, Maine
House proud, reliable, animal loving couple both in our 30s.
Lacey and Jay were such an amazing house sitters and pet care takers to my 10 year old cat, Bane. I cannot recommend them enough for future house-sits, they were supremely responsible, understanding to my house's quirks, responsive and gave great updates, thoughtful, organized, and very clean! I am so grateful to both Lacey and Jay for allowing my trip to Scotland to be as fun as possible, as I didn't worry about a thing with them at the helm back home. Many thanks to you both!
Rosemary
Pownal, Maine
Lifelong Animal Lover Excited to Take Care of Your Furry Family Members
This was my first time with zeewoi and I couldn't be happier. Rosemary was great! We talked on FaceTime and then met in person prior to her stay which made me very comfortable leaving my boys. Everyday I received photos and an update on the crazy group ( she had 2 young dogs to deal with). When I arrived home the dogs were happy, the house looked great, the bed was made with clean linens and all towels washed. Wow, I couldn't ask for more. I only hope I can entice Rosemary to come back to Waynesboro in the future. Thanks again!!!
Kyle
Pownal, Maine
Solo traveler trecking the globe!
Kyle was such a great sitter for our two cats, Buffy and Milo, while we were gone for a month hiking the John Muir Trail. He proved very self-sufficient, which was super important for us since we were hiking and out of cell service for most of the time. Something that stood out was his adaptability. A summer storm knocked out power for two days and Kyle took it in stride. Most importantly, we came home to two happy cats and a tidy apartment. If you are looking for a sitter, look no further than Kyle.
Kemble
Pownal, Maine
Mature, Mostly-Retired, Solo Male Professional on Global Sabbatical
Kemble was very responsive, communicative, and friendly! He left the house clean and tidy and even left some treats for us from the farmers market.
Caleb
Pownal, Maine
Happy, clean, animal loving family!
Sarah and Caleb were great! Easy to communicate with and took excellent care of Banksy. They checked in regularly and left the house clean and tidy upon return. I’d have them come and stay again anytime.
Ina
Pownal, Maine
Trusting, caring, responsible & dependable “Grandma” for your home & pets!
Ina was a terrific person and house sitter! We met twice before the house sit and she got to meet Iris who warmed up to her right away. With most strangers, she runs and hides under the bed!!! I really liked Ina's warm and open personality. She was very thoughtful and careful with my things and furniture. She sent me great photos of Iris throughout the 2 weeks I was gone. Somehow she was able to get Iris to sleep in the bed with her. This is truly a thing that I cannot get Iris to do with me!!! I would highly recommend Ina for anybody else who would consider her.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Janie
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Amneris
Ally was great! We got to meet for a few minutes before I headed out and I felt super reassured that both Goose and my home were in good hands. My cat is picky when it comes to strangers, but he was comfy in Ally’s lap right away the first night! She communicated well and sent cute pictures while I was away. My home was clean and Goose was happy when o got back. I highly recommend Ally as a sitter and she’s welcomed back anytime!
Meghan
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
Regina
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
Bill & Kathy
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Carol
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
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!
Alexey
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
MARILYN
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
Nancy
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.

What a great place to take a dog!! Using only positive reinforcement, Jenny has helped me tremendously in training my new, very nervous rescue dog. Classes at Jenny's are very small -- sometimes one-on-one. They build my dog's confidence through fun games that teach good behaviors and train the dog out of bad ones. Jenny explains everything, and always has a positive, fun way to teach new things and cure problem behaviors. Jenny's farm is full of safe play spaces and learning opportunities, and my dog even learned some tricks on the full size agility training course.
We're taking our puppy and new 12 yr old rescue to classes and it's the perfect training facility. We don't have a fenced yard so it's also fabulous to be able to bring the dogs over for free runs when no one else is there. Jenny knows dogs and is super nice as well. Highly recommend.
Working with Jenny at Whole Dog Camp has been an amazing help as we welcomed a new rescue into our home. Her farm and all its big, fenced in spaces is a great place to take our pup for a free run, the multiple fenced in spaces give him space to participate in group classes in his own space while he gets used to other dogs, and Jenny has been available in classes, for private sessions, and when issues arise, to help us help him. I cannot recommend her enough.
Took my new dog for her first class at Whole Dog Camp last night. It was such a perfect environment for her to practice and learn! Jenny is a great trainer and the other dogs in class were at various levels, with different strengths and challenges, so we could all learn from each other. Jenny also clearly "gets" the dogs and was able to provide great insights on the dogs' behaviors throughout the class. The facility is wonderful as well, and provides various areas to train, play, socialize, etc for different dogs and/or classes. We will be back again!
Jenny has been a tremendous help, teaching us how to effectively and humanely deal with our very large, slightly skittish 3 year-old standard poodle. In a few short months of participating in dog camp we have virtually eliminated lunging on the leash, made crate time a happy experience, and improved socialization skills. And that’s just the dog! She has also helped us (the humans) understand doggie motivations and created renewed confidence in our ability to deal w the challenges that inevitably arise in raising a dog. Jenny is equally kind to and effective with dogs and their owners. Her non-punitive approach benefits everyone in her program, human and canine! She is always eager to hear about and help solve problems. There is no question she cares deeply about her work. Finally, Whole Dog Camp sits in a gorgeous rural setting with several large training enclosures and a wide variety of equipment. The spaciousness is great for training and a lovely spot to spend time. Thank you, Jenny, for all you do!
What a wonderful experience!!!! My husband and I had the pleasure of staying and working with Jenny, as she helped us with training for our dog Luca, who is a rescue. Jenny is knowledgeable, professional, and so incredibly precise with training suggestions. For us it was great to help make sure Luca is the best he can be. Jenny is helping us achieve this, and we will be back. We highly recommend!!!
Jenny is a knowledgeable, fun, caring trainer with tons of experience. The facility is amazing, safe, big and beyond beautiful with gardens full of flowers and vegetables everywhere. You can learn agility, obedience, rally all kinds of things. My girl Onyx and I loved the summer session.
Jenny is so good and helpful with any kind of dog behavior issue. And she really likes helping people and their dogs.
Thanks Emilie!
Thanks Ursula!
