Jordan
Totowa, New Jersey
Spending life's adventure caring for your animal loved ones, big & small, w/ TLC
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!
Francesco
Totowa, New Jersey
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!
Eric
Totowa, New Jersey
Mature, reliable sitter who looks like this site's "How It Works" cartoon Martin
Eric is a wonderful sitter! I knew he would be great after I saw all of his 5 star reviews. When I first talked to him, Eric was very amiable, and asked all the right questions, which showed me that he had read through the listing and paid particular attention to the types of pets that we had and their particular quarks. Eric took the time to meet with me as needed before he came to the place. He was always happy to meet me at the times/days I requested. We had to catch a ferry and it was prebooked, Eric was very flexible and allowed for plenty of time to arrive at our home for us at arrive back so we did not have to worry about the dogs being alone. During his stay, Eric made sure that the dogs were walked and properly attended to. One of our dogs requires daily medication and Eric did a great job with that. One of our boys was a bit whiny during the stay and we had a chat about it, Eric solved the problem during his stay. One the day we came home, Eric offered to launder the sheet and towels which was a such a relief to me a I had so much to do when I got home. One of the best things that Eric did was take our dogs for one last walk right before we came home so that we did not have to attend to them after our long journey. When we got home, our house was clean, our dogs were happy and tired and we were extremely pleased. Be sure to book Eric if he enquires about your listing!
Pearl
Totowa, New Jersey
The house sitter that is also a jack of all trades, master of many. Main focus.
Pearl was a good pet sitter. She kept us up to date on her arrival and departure, as well as updates on our cat, with photos! She was quick to respond, and left the place exactly as it was left.
Renata
Totowa, New Jersey
Brazilian Vet looking for pets and humans to be friends with.
Renata did a fantastic job taking care of our dog, Lolita. She was easy to communicate with and adaptive to working out any situation that came up. She did a great job working with our often nervous, skittish fur-baby, who was very happy and comfortable with Renata. Definitely recommend!
Peter

Peter Swanson
Peter was a great sitter! Our dog and cat were very happy during his stay. Peter was also very communicative and flexible with his schedule, and left the house spotless. We will definitely have him stay again!
Lei
Totowa, New Jersey
A Compassionate Pet Lover
It was an absolute pleasure having Lei sit for our three kitties. She is a warm and positive person who made us feel completely at ease knowing that our home and cats were in safe and loving hands. She communicated regularly, sending lots of pictures. We came home to an immaculate house and three happy and healthy kitties. We would be thrilled to have Lei back again.
Abigail

Abigail was kind and communicative the whole time, and Lucy looked happy and healthy when I got home (to a clean apartment, too!). Can't wait to have her come sit again for us :)
Andre

Responsible couple looking to be your reachable and careful sitters :)
Andre is a delightful person, fine house sitter and terrific with our dog. Aside from a few crumbs in kitchen and a cup left in the livingroom, house was in applepie order. Mail organized, sheets stripped and folded, dog bowls cleaned! Would use Andre any time! Highly recommend

Reviews from Cat Owners
Amanda
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Karen
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Sandi
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!!!
Esther
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.

Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Thea
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Kaori
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
Evelyn & Jeff
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Natalie
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!

High praise to all who have helped run Totowa Petco Playcare smoothly over the last 9 years… my dog LOVES this place! He can tell when we pull into the parking lot ‘it’s going to be a great day’! This facility is clean and properly maintained. With 3 pens (2 lrg + 1 med) that have washable doggie couches, chairs, modular cubes etc. Aside from the necessary constant clean-ups, everything (they use a hose w/environmentally friendly germ killing solutions) is also sanitized each night so it’s ready the next morning for play to begin all over again. There is a feed area ‘dining room’ where dogs are separately taken to eat in peace if you so choose to pack your pooch a lunch box with a meal/snacks. And because they are located inside of Petco, grooming services can also be obtained. I have requested a few baths or just nail clippings over the years, and it’s such a convenience to drop off my pup for Playcare and pick him up happy and groomed. And lastly, none of this well done day-to-day canine dance could be accomplished if it weren’t for the outstanding Playcare staff. All of them are dog lovers and the dogs know and love them too! They are friendly and professional and ensure everyone (not an easy task) plays nicely together. My dog returns home happy, exercised (sometimes he’s asleep on the ride home) and I believe less stressed. And I too am happy and less stressed knowing he is safe and in great care. They don’t advertise, it’s all word of mouth. They’re that good. -H.W. *Side note: Being able to play with all different canines has helped socialize my dog. A perk of Playcare that my family and friends also benefit from. For less than the cost of one walk from a dog walker you and your dog get so much more… who says money can’t buy you happiness? ;)
This place has been great for us. My dog comes home good and tired. Everyone there treats the dogs very well and they are attentive to the needs of other dogs with medical issues and such. Friendly, knowledgable staff, good hours for us working folks, and Sam is always happy there.
Pooch play is a very valuable place for me and a safe environment for my dog Kiko! The staff there looks generally pleased and happy to be there and look like genuinely happy dog lovers. How could they not be being around so many big dogs would really intimidate me! As soon as I mention Pooch play to my dog Kiko his ears perked up and looks forward to getting there. Once we get to the door of Patco he knows exactly how to get to the door of Pooch play on his own desperately scratching the door to get in. Pooch play is a great service especially when it's raining for 3 or 4 days or snowing it's a great Outlet for my dog Kiko to release his stress of being in the house for too many days in a row. For only $15 for 5 hours you can't beat it. The only thing negative I have to say about Pooch play is that they're not open on Sunday.
The idea is great, but the service is poor and does not adhere to the wonderful promises made on Petco's website. I have left my dog at this establishment several times during the past couple of months and here are my observations: 1. Dogs are separated by size and possibly temperament. While the area for the big dogs is cleaned regularly, the one for the small dogs is neglected for hours. Dogs in the small suite have peed at several places (yes, you can see it on the webcam), and no one, repeat, NO ONE, came to clean the area up or even refill the water bowls. 2. The website indicates that the employees play with the dogs to entertain them. During the 2 times that I observed the suites via webcam, no one played with either the big, but specially the small dogs. They were just laying around, bored/tired, and in their or some other dog's pee. 3. The place is understaffed. Two-three people, three suites (one of which is often closed with almost 20-30 large dogs squeezed in the other). Of them, one moves between the front desk and playsuite. As I mentioned above, the concept is great and an affordable option for some dog-owners. But, the place needs to hire more employees who genuinely enjoy their job, and who would gladly play with their canine buddies. The place is lacking in constant cleaning and replenishing of water bowls...maybe because it is understaffed? Hope the management takes the right steps to improve the quality of this invaluable service.
Our dog loves Pooch Play! Great exercise & socialization especially in bad weather. He's been going now for 4 years! It's his home away from home 🐶💙 …
I have been bringing my dog to daycare now for 4 years. Staff is great, they are knowledgeable, patient and are always making sure dogs are safe, rates are reasonable. I definitely recommend trying it out
They are wonderful and take great care of my little doxie :)
Great staff and place for my dog to run around!

Thank you Cherie, Tania and Yvonne for taking great care of Fiji for us🙏 We were faced with using a boarding type facility... We have in the past, however, having our elderly 14 yr old dog in the comfort of her own home with expert care was so less stressful on her.... Us as owners also! We appreciated all the updates along the way, photos and videos as well! Again... Great service... Hope to use you all again real soon!
Cherie and her crew have been walking our two dogs weekly, taking our younger dog on adventure walks, and have provided care over a long weekend while we were away. They provide pictures and detailed notes after each walk or home visit. We could not be more pleased with the service they provide and the care with which they treat our dogs. Perhaps the best endorsement is from our dogs - they greet her eagerly and happily leave for their walks.
Our dog has a heart condition that is terminal. They have shown up, taken her for a walk, changed her diaper, given her medication all graciously and kindly. After every walk they make sure that all our animals have water and food. This is not something we asked for but it makes us feel confident knowing all our pets are taken care of. We are so so very grateful and highly recommend them for your pets.
Cherie and her team are life savers and treat their clients pets as if they were their own. Highly recommend!!
Cherie, Yvonne and Tania were all fantastic with our dogs while we were away on vacation. They did multiple drop-ins a day and sent updates each time with pictures. We would def recommend them! - Lauren & JP
Cherie did a great job with our Fergus! He loved seeing her every morning and going on a walk! We really appreciate the care given.
I can’t recommend Wags Walks n Whiskers enough! I was lucky and blessed to have found Cherie and her team last December. From the moment I met Cherie, I knew instantly she was the right fit for my goldendoodle, Lucy. Her warm, loving, and caring personality instantly won over us both! You can immediately tell she has a love for all animals which makes you feel comforted when you are away from your pups. I never feel nervous or worried when I’m not at home because I know that Cherie is treating Lucy like she is her own. They are trustworthy, very knowledgeable when it comes to animals, and truly know how to handle them, which is something I did not have experience with in the past. Plus, for each and every visit, Cherie or Tania will send me pictures, videos, and an update on their walk for that day. I always look forward to it! Not only are Cherie and Tania both wonderful, but they are also very reliable and efficient. They always respond to any messages or requests you may have. The lines are communication are always open. If you are looking for a dog walker in the North Haledon area, I highly recommend Wags Walks n Whiskers for your furry family member!
I, Erica B, live in N Haledon and had Cherie from Wags,Walks n Whiskers walk our elderly dog, Freyja, beginning of July for a few full days and single walks while we were away. It was first time having someone other than family care for Freyja. Cherie came to meet Freyja first , got details of her routine, and gave me details of her very professional business, that has a fantastic app to use when you sign up. After every visit , even if short walk, she followed up on app with many pictures and detailed report of her visit with Freyja . Obviously I highly recommend Wags, Walks n Whiskers. I am thrilled I have Cherie for Freyja whenever we are away. She really gets to know your pet. It is not just a walk, but a caring visit .
Cherie is great. I've been a customer of hers I think from the beginning (or very near the beginning). She walked my black lab Lucy before she crossed rainbow bridge. And Lucy loved her. Then when I got my yellow boy, I reached out to her immediately and of course he fell in love with her too. Just the other day he saw MY car parked outside on the street and spent 90 minutes going crazy because he thought it was Cherie getting ready to come in to get him. I trust her implicitly. She's done all kinds of dog care training, i.e., Canine CPR, etc. She's kind and caring. I HIGHLY recommend her.
My dog can be nervous and shy around new people. Cherie was so kind and patient with him. There are very few people I would trust to let into my house and take care of my dog, and Cherie is definitely on that list. She is always considerate and gives thorough updates after every visit. I would highly recommend this business to anyone!

Lisa and her staff are incredible! We've used Nature's Nanny for various pets over the last several years, and they have always taken great care of them. We appreciate the notes and photos they send after each visit. For our last service, in addition to Lisa taking care of our two cats, we had to make last minute arrangements to have our dog taken care of when my mother-in-law had a medical emergency and couldn't watch him anymore. Lisa was so accommodating, which made us feel so much better about being far away from home. We will continue to use Nature's Nanny for all of our pet care needs whenever we go away for extended periods.
I needed a reliable dog sitter who could give my dog meds twice a day and sometimes doesn't want to take them. Lisa was able to get them down for him. She sends me photos and updates for every visit. My work plans changed and she was able to accommodate that as well. As a dog mom with a dog with health issues, it is a huge sigh of relief to have someone trustworthy and caring taking care of him! Thank you Lisa! 💜
From the second we met with Lisa, we knew we ( and our VERY particular kitty) were in excellent hands! It’s not easy to entrust someone you don’t know personally into your home to take care of your furry family member while you are away. Lisa interviewed us as much as we interviewed her, and we truly felt like her expertise and experience made her an extremely trustworthy caretaker. We couldn’t have been more impressed! Despite the fact that our cat becomes territorial and downright vicious with strangers, Lisa managed to feed, change the litter, and even attempt to socialize with her, while knowing exactly how to handle such a difficult cat. We got a daily log of the day’s activities, as well as pictures and text updates. When we got home, it was obvious that an unbelievable amount of care and attention had gone into her, and she behaved as if we’d never left.( In fact, her litter box was better cared for than I think we even do!) We can not recommend Nature’s Nanny Pet Service and Lisa enough!!!! We have already used her services twice, and will continue to do so in the future.I felt like she cared for our cat as much as we do, and was professionally able to handle her in a way that neighbors and family members were unable to. We are so grateful, and have recommended her to several people, and will continue to do. I highly recommend giving yourself complete peace of mind, and hiring such a fantastic service. I only wish we had found Nature’s Nanny’s Pet Service sooner!
Had a great experience with Nature's Nanny! Lisa took care of our cat while we were on vacation and I couldn't have been more pleased. Her communication is fantastic (daily updates and pictures) and she is so kind and compassionate. We found our new pet sitter!
Luna is our first pet and I was very apprehensive leaving her at first. Lisa came to meet us and put us at ease immediately . She has been back several times and now we have a trusted FRIEND coming in to help . She always sends texts with pictures and leaves a detailed account of her time with Luna . Lisa is the BEST!
Lisa is someone that we trust completely with our boys! We count on her to give insulin injections to our one diabetic cat and she gives them plenty of love and attention while we are gone.
We have used Natures Nanny for 18 + years and Lisa has always been great with all of our cats.
I used this company for 2 years for my high energy dog. They’ve been amazing and I always felt safe with my dog in their hands and them in my home. I can’t recommend highly enough. The only reason I’m stopping is because I’m moving, and if I could take them with me I would!
Lisa provides great dependable care. Has taken care of our kitties for many years. Very trustworthy and caring.
Very caring for pets. If ur out working too long for your fur baby's. They come in at a set time to walk or water/feed ur baby!! Lol great service and very caring owner!
