Desiree
Topinabee, Michigan
Remote worker looking to spend unique times w/your pets and home
This was my first time using zeewoi and I could not be more impressed with Desiree's services. She did an amazing job at taking care of my cat Mimi and my apartment while I was gone and I came back to my place cleaner than I left it and my cat happy and in good health. Desiree did an excellent job at communicating with me and frequently sent me pictures to ensure my cat was doing well. I was initially worried about leaving my cat with someone else while I was out of the country but I got SO lucky finding the most caring and kind person! Would highly recommend to anyone and I would definitely use her services again.

Experienced House Sitters Who will Care For Your home and Pets
Janet did a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my home while I was gone for almost a month. She kept me posted regularly and responded quickly to a couple of requests I had to make while traveling. She is flexible and very reliable and I would definitely welcome her back to my home whenever she is available.

Great sitters - who were very nice to clean all the sheets and towels, and clean before I arrived from my month abroad.

JIM AND DEBORAH
This listing is for Jim, but he and wife, Deb are a package deal, especially when it comes to horse care. Deb is the horse person. Since they live in my area in the winter, only Jim stayed at my house while Deb stayed at home with their own dogs. She came at feeding times to make sure Jim was "on it" until he got accustomed. All went well. Did have a glitch with my well (it apparently was on its way out) but I was able to coach Jim over the phone on what to do. He was definitely fine with handling stuff like that and didn't get flustered (like me!) Due to a medical emergency on our trip, we had to come home a week early. I was grateful that they were local and I didn't mess up their plans! Hope to have them back in the future if my gang wasn't too much for them!

Solo traveler, pet lover, and writer looking forward to meeting people and pets.
We, and Pele, love having Jan sit for us. We always know we’re leaving things in GREAT hands and can enjoy our trip more, knowing we don’t need to worry about anything. She managed the food, meds, and loop treatments with attention to detail; left the house immaculate as always; and kept us updated.
Steele
Topinabee, Michigan
Open-minded, compassionate, loving pet-sitter
I would invite Steele back anytime. He was communicative, reliable, friendly, and conscientious of my dog and cat’s needs. He took great care of my home too, I came back to it just as I left it. He also left a very sweet note and little parting gifts for me and the fur babies! So sweet.

Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
Anne
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.

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!!!
Jenner
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
Tonya
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.

Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Brandon & Travis
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.

Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !

Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!

Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.

I have brought my dog Koda here to be groomed twice. I am trained to groom, but my busy schedule makes it tricky to find the time. Koda is an Akita, so he gets a bath and a deshed blowout. I was very pleased the first visit, as he was very well groomed, all of his undercoat was removed, and my boy barely shed for weeks afterwards. He was also treated exceptionally well by the groomer and the customer service was unmatched. He was a very happy dog! However, the second time we got him groomed here, I think there was a different groomer on staff. She was just as kind, nice, and professional, but when I picked Koda up he was still covered in hair and was still damp. His feet were wet enough to make marks on the sidewalks outside and on the seats of my car. When I got home, I had to give him another blowout with my own velocity dryer to get the remainder of the undercoat out and off of him and to finish drying him off. I was saddened at this second groom because his first one was so well done.
Norman had a great time at the Indian River Pet Resort. They gave him his favorite treat every night before bed. His routine stayed the same so coming home was not a huge adjustment. Thank you to the staff for taking g such great care of Norman! I highly recommend!
We love Indian River Pet Resort. This was the first time we've left our dog and it was great knowing he was there. Brad and his crew are the best.
Indian River Pet Resort's team is absolutely wonderful! I brought my shy Australian Shepherd here for a 2-week stay and she not only made friends with the team of ladies, but it sounds like she also had fun. Plus, they groomed her and she's so soft now! I really appreciate the team for answering all my questions and helping me book my dog's stay rather last minute. I also appreciated the live video stream of my dog's kennel while she was there. I had so much comfort that I knew she was safe and well cared for while I was on vacation. I will be taking my dog back when needed.
We miss you all at Indian River Pet Resort! Roux is no longer with us due to old age, but I want to let anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet, hands down your the best. We never worried about our old boy. ❤️
Our two kitties had a cat condo vacation while we were away. They were happy and relaxed when we picked them up. The cat room is tidy and roomy with really nice cat condos that have climbing and privacy shelves and food and cat box books.
What a great place,our Scruffer is a senior pekingese ,we were very nervous about leaving him for 10 days especially since he hasn't been boarded for 4yrs, the vet is next door and we signed permission to treat if needed. His kennel(4x8) had no access to Webcam but was able to text every day, and he was doing great. We live in The UP of MI was on our way to Detroit. They even bathed him and washed his bed and blanket since he was there more than 7 days. Great staff. Very happy all went well.
My husband and I booked 4 days at the “pet resort” here for our dogs to have quality, stress-free care while at our own wedding last October. With all the wedding prep, we didn’t want to question our dog’s safety. We were so excited to see them, but it turned out to be no fun at all. Right when we walked in, the lady at the front told us that she had to move one of our Boston terriers to a different cage (we had no clue of this). I was shocked and confused - we had left a list of phone numbers to call (our own and other family members who would answer 24/7 since it was our wedding weekend). She assured us that this was okay because it was an “indoor/ outdoor” cage. Our poor boy Boston terrier (who has anxiety) was separated from his sister for reasons they couldn’t explain and they said they couldn’t take him out, hence the indoor and outdoor cage. Our boy came back smelling like urine, along with his bed and toys we left him. At home, he doesn’t use a doggy door, so he probably had no idea that he was allowed to go outside on his own. When we pay for a service, we expect that it’s complete and that just didn’t happen here. Indian River Pet Resort gave up on our dog, put him in a cage for the whole weekend, and let him pee on himself. The lady at the front even said “he might have peed on himself!” because she could smell it too. I was beside myself. What are we supposed to say to that? Leaving your dogs is one of the hardest things to do; they are family. And it’s even worse picking them up in this condition. Guaranteed they wouldn’t treat any of their own dogs this way. We left the dogs with toys and a scooper in their food too - when we picked them up, the scooper was gone; just careless. I would skip this place and try somewhere else. I don’t think any pet parent would find it worth it. We left heartbroken.
We love taking our sweet pups here and have been for a few years! They are so patient and understanding and go above and beyond to care for our furry family member. Vixie always comes home tired out from all the fun she has! Our pups was a rescue with some quirks and we cannot express how much we appreciate their patient care! I wanted to update my review, which will always be 5 stars, and add that they are amazing! Great care next door at the veterinarian too! Highly recommend this place, they treat your pet like family. ❤
Last year, when my relatives/cat care started leaving for the winter, I sought out a kennel that could take my cat when I travelled for more than a couple days. I didn't know if there was such a thing in my area of Northern Michigan. I was aware of Indian River Pet Resort, so it was one that I visited. And I discovered that they have a dedicated and secure cat room with individual and spacious "kitty condos" that are sight and sound separated from the dog area. I tried my cat there and ended up boarding her there several times for up to ten days. This place has been an absolute godsend!!! It's modern, clean, reasonably priced, very accommodating and the staff provides great affectionate care for Sugar every time. She shows no nervousness about arriving there or any issues on pick up. I give IR Pet Resort my highest recommendation! P.S. When I'm there, the dogs out in the large fenced in yard appear to be having a ball playing with each other and the dog kennels inside are very large and secure looking too.

You know how it is when you come home from a trip and simply can't wait to pick up your beloved and happy-to-see-you pooch from the boarders? The next best thing to that feeling is being able to enjoy yourself while away -- knowing your fur babies are in good hands. And if you leave them with Julie, they most definitely are in good hands! She is knowledgeable in dog behavior, obviously loves and cares for them, and has a pretty cool kennel set-up. We won't take our dogs anywhere else. Thank you, Julie!
I have used them twice this year & my dog was excited when I took him back. Very clean facilities. I will continue using them. And Julie is good at working with my drop off & pick up times.
My Lacie girl LOVES Pikes Place and Julie! The accommodations are spacious and super clean, Lacie loves the outside runs, and I trust Julie with my dogs life! Plus, they take GREAT photos of your pet while you're away so you can catch a glimpse of them in action!
They're always so friendly, the facility is always clean and tidy, and pick-up/drop-off has always gone smooth. Our dog Grizz seems to really enjoy his time there with the staff and other dogs. Would gladly recommend Pike's Place!
We were so blessed to have found a very special boarding kennel, Pike’s Place, for our four legged “baby girl”. The facility is immaculate and provides a fun, safe, loving environment for those who need a home away from home. Julie’s love for animals is obvious the moment you step into the reception area. She answers all correspondences immediately and posts photos of visiting pets, allowing the owners to see their “babies” when separated. I HIGHLY recommend Julie and her boarding kennel; Pike’s Place, a jewel of Northern Michigan! We cannot thank you enough Julie!
If there were 10 stars I would have given that. The facility was super clean and well maintained. Each dog had a large indoor kennel with a doggie door that let them go outside whenever they pleased. You could tell the owner really cared about all the dogs and took great care of our German shepherd all weekend. We hate leaving our dog anywhere but when we picked her up she was very relaxed and slept the whole 4 hour ride home!
Julie did a great job with our little guy. We are always hesitant to leave him but the place was very clean, he had space to run and play and he came back happy and healthy. He loved playing fetch while he was there. When i was nervous how he was doing, Julie reassured us and sent us pictures.
Just picked up our pup from Pike’s Palace after a weekend stay. The kennels were clean and smelled good. They had played ball with our guy while he stayed. He was clean and happy when we picked him up.
Our dogs have been to Pikes Place 3 times in the last 3 months. Every time we go they’re happy to be there, and every time I pick them up they are happy. The facility is spotless and Julie is fantastic!!
Highly recommend. Very nice new facility, the owner has tons of dog experience. The kennels are in a heated and cooled building and are very clean and roomy with easy access to potty outside in their own runs as well as a large play area. Very convenient to Boyne Mountain, Boyne City, Petoskey and Charlevoix. I love my dogs and am picky, I would choose this place every time!
