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!

Alice was super helpful, taking care of Xabat and our home with short notice. She is thoughtful and tidy and we are grateful!
Leslie
Selkirk, New York
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.

Give your pets a fun staycation!
Fiona was a really great sitter. She was super self sufficient, she sent many photos of Zoe and funny commentary. It was clear that she loved spending time with Zoe. She left my place clean and she was easy to coordinate with. I’d have her back any time.

Experienced Pet Sitter, Property Manager, and Airbnb Superhost
Molly and Lee knew exactly how to be over the top sitters. The house and Tabby were well taken care of. I was pleased to know that they embedded with our community and staff. Additionally, Molly and Lee were able to explore beautiful St. Lucia to learn of why it is so great to live here. Mary and I look forward to their return next year. Molly and Lee, job well done. I appreciate the work on the lawns, absolutely beautiful.
JONATHAN
Selkirk, New York
Lover of animals and travel...
Jonathan was prompt and clear with communications. He reached out with questions before the sit and sought clarification on my instructions during the sit. He sent photos of Sophie and Pepito, along with updates. He reached out with a concern about an open gate in the backyard to make sure I knew about it (I did). My animals were well cared-for and the house was tidy on my return. Overall, he was reliable and trustworthy. Thank you, Jonathan!
Rebecca
Selkirk, New York
Digital Nomad w/ 10+ Years House-Sitting Experience
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!

Responsible & non-flakey. Neat and tidy. Experienced homeowner.
Sunil is an excellent house-sitter. Great communication before and during the sit, with many fun photos. Sunil took great care of our cats, houseplants and home. It is people like Sunil that makes zeewoi a success. We hope he will be available to return to our home in the future. Many thanks to Sunil.
Patricia
Selkirk, New York
Experienced, caring sitter and your pet's new best friend.
All expectations exceeded!!! Outstanding, Amazing.....I would give a ten star review if possible. Patricia was my first sitter off zeewoi and she was a dream come true. Patricia is an excellent communicator, is responsive, flexible, kind, thoughtful....you get the idea that I can't say enough!! Then there was the cat care. My cat Minnie has never before been so normal upon my return from travel. Typically Minnie would be a nervous wreck after my travel, have lost a ton of hair, be meowing constantly, etc. Not this time, it was as if I never went away, amazing!! Minnie was so well cared for! Patricia is a cat whisperer I am certain because my cat can be a paranoid freakazoid but she was normal with Patricia! Patricia also sent videos and pictures which was both very sweet and made me realize I needed to up my own game playing with my cat.... I'm sure she misses play time with Patricia. And like many other reviewers mentioned, Patricia even left gifts...wow, what!.... .I was the one who should be gifting Patricia!! Thank you Patricia, you are an amazing pet sitter!!

I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.

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!
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
katie
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Noelle
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Mary & Shane
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Alison
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.

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!

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
Deb
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!

I highly recommend booking with Laura! She has taken great care of my four cats while I was away for both short and long trips, and I would not hesitate to call her again. You can expect to regular communication, including daily photos of your pets, and will rest assured that your pets are in good hands. Laura cares for your pets as though they were her own! Finally I would emphasize that Laura’s rates are very reasonable and I appreciated her availability during the holiday season.
Laura has been a godsend for my dog and me! She is so reliable, kind, and caring! She came so highly recommended to me and I recommend her to everyone I know. She takes the best care of my dog and makes sure that she has the best time. Laura sends updates, pictures, and a map of where they went so that you know what they've been doing. My dog has bonded to Laura and looks forward to seeing her every week!
Laura is wonderful! I’ve gone on several week-long trips and she has reliably fed my cat and given her snuggles, while giving me individualized report cards and photos. I’m also very particular when it comes to my cat’s feeding schedule and my home door lock/security system can be finicky, but Laura handled both like a pro. Highly recommended!
Laura is amazing!!! She has been walking my dogs for at least 2 years and they love her! She is very caring, responsible, and dependable....even has helped with emergency check-ins. She works with my crazy schedule and even helps reinforce training. 1000% percent recommend her!!
Laura is the best dog walker we could ask for! She is incredibly kind and clearly cares about all the dogs she sees. After every walk she sends us a map of where they walked with pictures and videos every single time. She also goes above and beyond for her clients. We have recommended her to literally everyone I know in the area that has a dog as I cannot say enough good things about her! Our dog loves a lot her too!! We are so lucky to have her :)
I have used Laura for my dog probably 6 times. I know my dog is well taken care of when I am out of town and I always receive updates throughout. I HIGHLY recommend, especially if you want the type of care that a boarding facility cannot provide. My dog adores Laura and feels so comfortable with her.
Laura is an amazing pet sitter! She cared for our 3 elderly cats ( 2 of which needed daily medications) . She regularly sent us pictures and updates and we felt at much more at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of our fur babies. I highly recommend her
Laura is absolutely reliable and my cats love her. She consistently goes above and beyond. She does little things beyond just pet care that make a huge difference, like bringing in packages and mail, and taking care of plants. She also is always willing to jump in at the last minute when plans change, which they often do. Having Laura taking care of my cats takes a huge weight off my mind when I am away.
Laura is the best and I trust her wholeheartedly with my dog! She understands the anxiety that can come with leaving your pet in the care of someone else and is very thorough and responsive with her updates. She also has incredible attention to detail when it comes to your specific animal’s needs so I know my dog is very safe and happy with her! :)
Laura is the best dog walker we’ve ever had! She is extremely reliable and has been very flexible when we’ve needed a last-minute walk or had a change in schedule. After every walk she sends a map showing where they went with helpful notes and photos - and most importantly our dog adores her!
My Furry Family Pet Sitters

Excellent pet sitting service! Melissa is accommodating and works out all the details. Melissa and Heather took great care of our dog and parrot. They easily worked out an overnight/daily visit schedule to meet the needs of our dog. Appreciated the pictures and texts😊 …
I have used Toni since she first started her pet sitting service. She has always been great, sending us photos of our cats and leaving follow up notes. She is always quickly responds to any requests. Our kitties love having her take care of them. I feel my pets and house are safe and in good hands with her service.
We contracted My Furry Family Pet Sitters at the holidays when I know it was a very busy time. Toni was the utmost professional. Despite a busy schedule, she not only took care of feeding and watering my cats, but gave them the love and attention they needed. She sent many pictures daily to assure us that they were doing well. I would definitely hire again!
Toni is just great. I originally asked her to take care of my two cats about three years ago. They both had health issues and needed meds two times a day. She was able to take good care of them both until I had to put them down. Now she takes care of my healthy young Rocky boy. She really loves pets and is a joy to work with. All of my guys love her. Highly recommend.
I have been using My Furry Family Pet Sitters for almost 3 years now. I have 3 pups and a cat. I can easily communicate our needs to the Pet Sitters and everything is handled and more. I am able to travel with ease. Toni has been amazing from day 1! We consider My Furry Family Pet Sitters part of the family now too!
Toni and the gang at My Furry Family Pet Sitters really rock! They are professional and reliable and I have peace of mind knowing that my two cats, Star & Fang, will get excellent care when I have to go away. When I signed on, Toni came over to meet the guys, check the place out, and document where everything was. I knew everything was going to work right there and that has turned out to be the case. Tony, Melissa, and Dawn really love animals and know a lot. Highest recommendation.
Toni has been taking care of my dogs for years and I absolutely cannot imagine what I would do without her service! She is exceptionally professional and reliable. Very caring and loving. Responsible. Great at communication. I couldn't ask for more. She has always been there for us no matter what the need. And with the addition of Melissa it has only gotten better. I know they truly care about my fur babies. They are the only people I trust to come and take care of my dogs when I can't.
Look no further for pet sitters that are professional and care about your pets as much as you do. Toni and Melissa (and now Dawn) go above and beyond when they watch our pets. In addition to feeding our cats and cleaning the litter, they play with them and always send pictures so we know they're doing fine. They even had a calendar created featuring all of the pets they look after! These pet sitters are incredibly reliable with scheduling and we've never run into an issue, even when we accidentally schedule at the last minute. On top of everything, their rates are more than fair, especially when considering the quality of work they perform. We are very lucky to have found My Furry Family and would recommend them to anyone with pets!
Hands down the very best! Toni Is truly a professional yet the kindest person to our our pets and their humans as well. My Furry Family Pet Sitters are reliable, trustworthy and have always helped us out even with a crisis on short notice. The BEST in the business!
100% trust our fur baby with My Furry Petsitter's! Tony is great with Molly- caring, reliable and certified if anything should happen. She is Molly’s best part of the day. Highly recommend!
Cornell's Cat Boarding
Recent Reviews:
Max must have been a very happy camper. He scarfed up every bite of food left for his 2 week stay and seems to have checked out the other guests at the cat resort. His person was relieved that he had behaved politely, enjoyed his stay among other cats and was also glad to enter his special travel compartment. As for Max's human, I am most grateful for the kind attention, the care in administering his meds which required tinkering with his food and the very reasonable cost of these services. Thank you Heidi for your gentle pet Care, with a capital C. It's so good not to feel guilty about leaving your pet on the holidays.
Heidi is awesome! We’ve been taking our cat there for years. We’ve had our cat there for a long weekend and for a week. She is so accommodating and very flexible. We had to change dates a few time for our cat to stay, and there was no issue. One of our cats passed away that we use to take to Cornell’s and Heidi sent us a card in the mail. She is so personable and caring for the cats and I can’t see us taking our cat anywhere else.
Heidi took wonderful care of our cat while we were away from the Capital Region. The first time I called her, she cheerfully answered the phone and made me comfortable right away, offering me the chance to come and get a tour of her facility. Upon touring, we quickly decided to enroll our cat in boarding, which was a very simple process. I felt very comfortable our cat was in good hands throughout our trip. When we picked her up, she wanted to stay! Heidi made sure our cat liked the food given, too, and showed she really got to know our cat. Thank you, Heidi and Cornell's. We will be back!
My cat is quite the picky girl but she absolutely loved her stay. She was a little stressed being away from home for a two week period but they took excellent care of her. They acknowledged her stress and catered to her needs with no issue. The cats are let out for daily exercise and they have no issue with a pet mom checking on the fur baby. Highly recommended.
We had a very good experience boarding two cats with Heidi. We were referred to her by our Vet. She provided great care and goes out of her way to make them feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Cornell's Cat Boarding.
This place is NOT closed! My cats love it here. Google dishonestly listed them as closed after the owners declined to pay Google for extra advertising. Greedy, greedy! Later: I am pleased to see that Google relented and put them back on the active list again. My cats love this place. They used to complain about getting in their carriers (meant a trip to the vet). Now they hop right in and don't even complain in the car, because they think (usually correct) that they are going to Cornell's.
Basic kennel. They feed the cats premium food.
Cornell's Cat Boarding Where we where looking at we wanted to board our 2 cats there but the place was too small. They didn't have an area where the cats could play in. Too narrow cages but price is right!
Great place to take a cat when you're going away they've been doing this for years family business. Friendly and reliable.
Great owner, excellent care given. Personable and knowledgeable.
