Jerry and Michelle are so great! From viewing their profile and reviews, I knew our dogs would be in great hands while we were out of town. Communication was smooth and reliable throughout the whole process, from the initial zoom to when we made it back to our respective homes. During the house tour on the first day of the visit, we were very comfortable and got along great. We received photos of the pups each day, usually with funny captions and usually with the dogs under their blankets. The house was super tidy when we got back, and we appreciated the fresh sheets after our 9-hour drive home. We would not hesitate to have Jerry and Michelle come back again - hopefully with nicer weather next time!

For the animals, loving companion
Leslie was wonderful! I would highly recommend her. She did an excellent job taking care of our 4 horses, 3 dogs, and Earle Kitty. When we arrived home, they all looked happy and well kept. She texted updates and sent pictures every morning. The house, I couldn't even tell she had stayed. Leslie washed towels and bed sheets and remade her bed. She is a lovely person to be around.

Lovely people and wonderful sitters. The cats were happy and my home was well cared for. Nancy communicated well through the sit and was flexible setting up arrival and departure times. She and Dan would be welcome back anytime!

Responsible and Caring
Aliza and Ric are repeat house- and pet-sitters for us. They are great, totally reliable and very pro-active in terms of sending photos etc. of Alice. We had to leave the house before they arrived this last time, and they had to leave before we returned,but we had no qualms about them doing a great job.

Rebecca is very sweet and incredibly considerate. We had a nice long zoom call before confirming the sit and she was easy to talk to. At the time I had two kitties and one was very ill. Rebecca asked thoughtful questions and had so much experience that my stress and anxiety were alleviated; I was grateful to have found her and felt completely comfortable entrusting my kitties and little piece of paradise to her. Unfortunately my Fizzy Fitzy's health deteriorated and he didn't make it. I let Rebecca know before the sit that it would be only one kitty and that he would be adjusting to the loss of his "brother" and companion and might need more care and attention. She was so kind and again, I felt like the universe had sent me the right person. Rebecca and I got a chance to meet as we overlapped by an hour or two on day one; I was so glad to be able to see her in person and give her a hug before I left. I returned after about 10 days to a calm kitty (which was amazing given that he'd just lost his lifelong companion) and an immaculate apartment. Rebecca even washed the sheets and made the bed which was so beyond helpful and appreciated after a tiring trip. Rebecca sent me a long message on the last day letting me know what had been done and showing a walk-through of the home (she's very thorough, which I love), so I knew what I was coming home to down to the fruit in the fridge. Seriously, the place was immaculate! I know you're journeying on Rebecca but I would love to have you sit anytime. Thank you!

Maggie was wonderful. We met and spent time together the day before my husband and I went out of town. I felt very comfortable with her knowledge and ability to take care of the house and my little cats. She stayed in touch with us she sent pictures I spoke to her a few times. The entire experience was wonderful and I would highly recommend her just sit for your house and pets. I hope in the future I will be able to have her come out and stay with us again. Thank you so much

Seasoned Pet and House Sitter
My dogs and I were lucky to rely on Sheila’s excellent pet care a second time. This sit required a great deal of coordination between both Sheila and my friends who provided intermittent pet care. Sheila communicated directly with me and my friends to ensure that all was well during my 5-week absence from home. Olive and Annie obviously like Sheila and feel very comfortable with her. Finally, Sheila made sure sheets and towels were freshly laundered and the house was tidy. I’m quite pleased with her care and offer a strong recommendation.
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
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!
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
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. ⭐
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
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!

Alex and Alena are the new owners of Waggs-and-Woofs in Stillwater and they proved to be a Godsend for us. Like many dog “parents,” we hate leaving our dogs when we go away. For several years we had a person who would stay in the house with them however, she retired so we were left trying other boarding facilities. Our pups always came how smelling awful from the stark conditions in which they were boarded. Our new pups have only been boarded at one other place which, we did not care for so based on a recommendation from our niece we called Alex and Alena for boarding for our recent vacation. It turned out to be the best call ever. They are the new owners who very recently took over the operation and it is fantastic. We were escorted on a tour of the facilities and we were blown away. A huge play area where they provide daycare and dogs can mingle. Boarding accommodations are great with beds and are exceptionally clean as well as climate control and even ceiling fans. When we picked them up you would never know they had been boarded. They were clean and didn’t have that boarded odor. The best part for us is that the operation is at their home. Unlike other places they don’t lock up and leave the pups overnight. They are there! They play, walk, and care for the dogs every day. They are truly caring and amazing people. We wish them many years of success and look forward to boarding with them whenever we go away. In fact, we already booked our next visit. In our opinion there are not enough stars in the universe to award them with!
My experience with Waggs-And-Woofs has been very positive. My Midas looks forward to going and comes home pooped out. The owner and her employees have always been helpful if I have had a problem with Midas. I love that not only do they play hard when there they also learn new tasks!
You know you are doing something (everything) right when you not only have community support, but also the support of other fellow dog boarding business owners! Alisa and her team offer quality care for all who enter. She and her team are knowledgeable and caring. The facility is meticulously clean and safety is obviously their number one concern. They provide daily updates for all who stay. They aren't scared to set boundaries with owners, to keep all safe in their doggy play groups. That's a win win in my book!
My dog spent an extended period boarding here. The owner was compassionate, professional, and did everything possible to make sure that my dog's time there was pleasant. She took very special care of my pet. It was so reassuring to know that my pup was being cared for here. Highly recommend using Wags and Woofs for your pet!!!
I can admit that I have never trusted anyone with my dog (who means the world to me)..until I found Waggs & Woofs …Alisa , Dennis & Kira take wonderful care of my Sofie who is very high energy .. . Sofie loves everyone at Waggs & Woofs. There was a time when she would not get in the car , now all I have to say is “do you want to go play with your friends “ and she gets so excited & jumps in the car! I have a sigh of relief knowing that my fur baby will be safe when I drop her off. It’s the most beautiful ,clean & safest daycare/boarding facility that I’ve ever sent one of my pets to. The Email communications with Alisa is excellent & The Photos are adorable!!! Thank you Waggs & Woofs !!
We love to travel, but we always worry about leaving our dog that we adore behind. It was wonderful knowing that he was in such good hands. Alisa is so wonderful and responsive, and she emailed us phenomenal pictures of him daily which was perfect. There is no other place we would want to leave him. I think Bentley had a wonderful time there on his vacation.
When looking for love and care for your pet when you can’t be present or are traveling, look no further than Wags & Woofs. What a loving team. Great communications and nothing but the best care and attention for your furry loved one! If I could give it 100 stars I would!Thank you for taking care of Addie while we were away. So grateful!!
My boyfriend and I went on vacation and our 6 month old puppy boarded overnight here for 10 nights. I was so nervous about boarding our puppy because he’s never been boarded before and he’s so young & can be a lot to handle at times. I love how they have the boarding right in their home. That eased my mind that someone is always there. Alisa and her team go above and beyond to care for every dog. They keep their customers updated with an amazing Facebook page with photos! Alisa is also very knowledgeable and her and her team are professionals at caring for dogs. Also I’d like to add that our flight was cancelled and we couldn’t get back home for another day and Alisa was more than happy to keep our puppy for another night. She saved me so much stress. And I’m so glad I found this place and will recommend to everyone I know!
Bringing my puppy to Waggs and Woofs for daycare has been an amazing experience for the last 3 months. Alisa and Dennis are so caring and compassionate with my dog and truly care about his well-being and safety! I even get nice photo updates while I’m at work. You can’t beat the experience your dog will get here... they have made my dog well socialized and behaved in a very clean and spacious environment. 100% recommend!
Alisa and Dennis have been amazing to work with. Their hours and rates are more than reasonable, and my high energy dog comes home happy and tired every night! They truly make a great team and I know my dog is in great hands when I drop off. Thank you for everything you do for us! We are so happy to have found you!
