Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.
Lifelong pet lover, longtime pet sitter!
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Caring and loving pet-sitter.
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Fit and fun "young" retired couple offer peace of mind while you are away!
Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.
Experienced housesitters looking to travel and make some furry friends!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
WFH researcher excited to provide quality care to your furry loved ones!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Experienced and zeewoi with excellent references!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Intrepid traveler and animal lover
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
Experienced sitter, 5-star reviews. Meticulous, quiet, non-smoker.
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!
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!
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
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!
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!

Have boarded my mastiff/dane at Highland pet care solutions on several occasions and my dog and myself have benefited from training sessions, given can't recommend them enough.
Our favorite place for our spoiled dogs to stay!
We have had the pleasure of working with Sam, and I can confidently say that her dog training services are exceptional. From the very first session, it was evident that Sam possesses a profound understanding of canine behavior and a genuine passion for helping dogs and their owners build harmonious relationships. One of the standout aspects of Sam`s service is her personalized approach. She has taken the time to understand my dog's personality, strengths, and areas that needed improvement. Whether it is basic obedience, advanced commands, or addressing problem behaviors, Sam has provided clear and actionable guidance. She is not just a trainer but also a source of support and encouragement. She is always available to answer questions and provide guidance between sessions. Her dedication to ensuring the success of both the dog and the owner is truly commendable. In summary, I cannot recommend Sam highly enough. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine love for dogs make her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking professional dog training services.
My feisty rescue, Tara, absolutely adores going to Samantha’s whether it’s for daycare, home boarding, or the both of us joining in pack walks and training sessions (either as part of a group or on a 1:1). Samantha has enabled me to make changes to my interactions with Tara and understand how I was triggering unwanted behaviours in my dog. She has helped me to understand more about breed fulfilment (Tara is a real mixture of tenacious terriers, strong willed Lhasa Apso & feisty Chihuahua) and how to meet these needs in a constructive manner. Tara is on a strictly managed diet to control a health condition. Samantha has been very supportive in ensuring Tara only has her “safe foods” as treats/rewards. I have every confidence in leaving Tara in Samantha’s care, knowing that even if T does have one of her “turns” she will be well taken care of. * photos taken by Samantha during daycare walks and training sessions
Have used Samantha now for a year for both helping me with my reactive schnauzer and also day care and boarding. Can’t recommend her and Tez enough. Both my dogs love going to stay with her. Photos show how happy they are
After moving to the area and doing some research, Sam came up as the person to go to for help with my reactive Aussie Shepherd. I've worked with a few trainers over the years, some I've never gone back to after the first session and some imparted such helpful, practical advice, it became everyday practice to use it. Sam definitely falls into the second category. In our 1-2-1 training sessions, she listens to what we need and adapts the training accordingly. She helps us understand how our dog views the world and work with him to make his life less complicated and she gives us homework for which we see visible results and she's always on hand in between sessions to offer help and support. She's also introduced us to a network of training support up here.
Samantha has helped me with many aspects of my GSP’s training. Recall, obedience, boundaries. All done with care and compassion. Samantha’s knowledge is top class. She is my first port of call for all things dog related.
We got in touch with Samantha after struggling with the training of our cocker spaniel puppy. We did one to one training with her which was followed up by useful videos and tips. This progressed onto recall training and under Sam’s expert guidance we now have a dog that we can walk off lead. Sam is so enthusiastic, knowledgeable and nothing phases her. She is one remarkable lady and so glad we found her.
We started working with Sam when we first got our 12 week old puppy. She taught us everything we needed to know to set her up for success. Sam & Tez continually create opportunities for dogs & their owners to learn, practice (and fail!) in a controlled and supportive environment. Through their support, insight and patience we now have a very easy going, content and well balanced border collie. Working with Sam & Tez over the last 1.5 years has made owning a dog an absolute joy ✨
I first met sam when she helped me with my husky to tighten up his recall and work on prey drive. He enjoyed several wonderful offlead years thanks to her guidance. My next dog was a Caucasian shepherd who was seriously dog aggressive. Without the knowledge Sam passed on to me we would have been totally lost. Working with Sam and on my own dog made training a joy. We saw constant progress and these days my dog regularly goes on pack walks and has a wonderful life. She has shown me how to work my dog around his triggers and change his behaviour patterns without having to hide away from them for years on end. I would highly recommend Sam for any and all issues you may have with your own dog.
Samantha is fantastic! Her love for her work shines through and she is firm and patient in her method. She has made such a positive difference to my relationship with my dog and my confidence in handling him in public spaces.
Romanian dog with many issues. Stark Dog Training was 3rd and last attempt to find a trainer who could understand the issues and offer support and strategies to make her a happier dog and owners who are more able to manage her needs.
I highly recommend Inverness Pet Care. I have used them for about 2 years now and I'm so happy with their service. Monte absolutely loves going out on his walks with Lyndsey and the gang. Her knowledge and experience with dogs is second to none and I feel totally confident that Monte is well looked after whilst in her care. I would have no hesitation in recommending her services to anyone!
Trustworthy and reliable dog walking service. My dog Ember looks like she has a great time on walks with Lindsey and she always updates me with pictures ect to let me know how Ember has got on. Would highly recommend Inverness Pet Care!
I can highly recommend "Inverness Pet Care" . Lyndsey looked after our dog for our two weeks holiday period, and even gave update texts as to how our pet was settling in. A very professional dog walking and home based pet care service we will certainly use again.
After the best recommendations about Scotsburn Kennels and Cattery, we have been taking Huey to daycare for a few months now, and he absolutely loves it. Recently we decided to leave Huey on an overnight stay, naturally a little nervous 😓, we had nothing to worry about what so ever. The care received is second to none, the team really look after your pooch with the personal touch. We'd be more than happy to book him on a stay over anytime. Thank you so much, we cannot recommend you enough.
just wanted to say thank you to all your family for the amazing care and love that you gave to our fur babies when they had their Christmas holiday with you. amazing how well groomed they all were and we know that lilith had lots of cuddles as we never told you she likes to be cradled like a baby and rocked to sleep in your arms, you told us so this shows that she has had alot of affection from you all. thank you from the Currie family ❤️
Thank you very much for taking after our wee family members for the duration of our special day. They came back smelling lovely and very happy. I think they very much enjoyed their wee vacation away to a new place. It's nice to know there is somewhere save and loving to look after them if we need it.
We boarded our cats and dogs for 10 days. They came home happy, well taken care of and even smelling better than when we dropped them. Facilities are amazing. Thank you so much for providing a home away from home to our furry family!
My dog is always happy to stay with them, I would really recommend this kennel to anyone who wants a safe space for their pets. Many thanks Bev and Andrew
Brody my 3yr GWP went for daycare to see how he got on, before having an overnight stay.. This was due to his separation anxiety, I wasn't sure how he would be. Well, he had the best day and he loved it!!! Andrew was amazing with him and after picking him up he slept all night!! Great place great people 👍 …
Our dog loves her visits, giving us peace of mind while we are away.
Fantastic place. We left our four chihuahuas with them and they were very well looked after. Lovely and clean with beautiful surroundings. Staff are super friendly and would highly recommend.
Dogs seem to love being there and they are treated like family 😀 …
Amazing Kennels, Andrew and Bev love having the dogs and look after them very well. I have a fussy eater so they always make sure she's OK. They always come out happy and smelling fresh too!
Jada was amazing. She cared for my senior dog with amazing compassion and kindness. Not only that, but she washed his blankets for him and even got my mail and took care of taking trash out on garabge day. As a single mother that saved and planned every detail for our vaction for a very long time, her services were extreamly well priced and having the daily updates allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my time away. I whole heartedly will reccomend Rainbow Mutt care, and be using her everytime i can!
A genuine person that loves what she does! Took the recommendation from a friend and Jada went above our expectations. She house sit for us and watched our 2 huskies and 2 cats. She even bought them extra toys and treats while we were gone. She also kept us updated with pictures and how the animals were doing. Can not recommend her enough!
Playful Paws is one of the most magical places you could take your dogs, and I could not recommend a visit enough! Our Labrador absolutely adores it and gets to fully burn off his energy with his best friends. We get feedback on his day and see photos of what he gets up to. The staff are friendly, attentive and nothing is too much when it comes to your dogs. Our dog used to get too excited on walks when meeting other dogs (he wants to be everyone’s friend) but since visiting PP, he is calmer, much easier to walk, and less overexcited at the site of any other walkers/dogs. He is more calm at home and means he still gets a good bit of exercise in on those busy days when it’s hard to get the time to give them a decent walk! Reasonably priced with block sessions available also! Definitely give them a try!
We had a funeral in Inverness and had difficulties finding care for our two dogs at short notice. Phone call to Playful Paws and it was sorted. Took the dogs along and was very impressed by their set up. Good inside and outside facilities and while I was there there was 1 member of staff to 3 dogs. The real above and beyond service was delivering the dogs back to our hotel. Very tired which was a great sign of the day they had. Will recommend this place to anyone staying in, or visiting Inverness with dogs.
My spaniel pup goes to Playful Paws at least 3 times a week. She bounds in excitedly every morning, and comes homes tired and happy at night. Perfect for us both - don't know what I'd do without them!
Absolutely fantastic dog care here. My dogs had an absolute ball here today; playing with the other dogs and having a great time. I had no concerns whatsoever leaving my precious dogs with Tracie and she kept me updated throughout the day with texts, videos and photos. I would not hesitate to leave them in Tracie’s capable hands again. Thank you Tracie 😊👍🏻
My dogs attend playful paws and absolutely love it. They engage in different games everyday and are definitely much more sociable because of the interaction they receive. Highly recommend.
Fantastic facility with dedicated, knowledgeable staff. Henry loved every minute and we will be back In the future.
Super Doggy Daycare.....Phil and the team are very dedicated to caring for the Dogs. Very professional. Our Ollie loves going... and is always super tired when he gets home. Highly recommended. 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶 …
Very happy puppy comes home each week and I could not manage work without this service; friendly and caring staff who know dogs well!
Put my dog to play full paws for Halloween party he had swollen a party balloon then 1rh later he was bitten by another dog he needed 14stitches.The staff where not supervising his group properly as this was shown on the CCTV.Iwould never recommend this company to anyone.And check your contract when you sign i was lucky they paid in full for his vet bills as they were at fault.
They do an amazing job with the dogs, highly recommend it 😀 …
