Tricia
Whatcom County, Washington
Responsible, Experienced, and Loving Pet/House Sitter
It was such a pleasure to host Tricia! She was incredibly kind, organized, and responsive, and took care of our two cats like they were her own. We would welcome Tricia to stay at our house again and highly recommend her for other sits 😊
Cindy
Whatcom County, Washington
Professional, flexible, world-travelling pet loving married woman with one cat.
As this particular sit was very last minute Cindy offered to take Bo to her place due to prior commitments. As she has pets of her own there was no hesitation on my side and I was beyond grateful for her offering to do this. I know Bo loved it as his daily walks were out in the county side not his usual city adventures. Thank you from The White House!
Debbie

Trustworthy, responsible animal lovers eager to love on your pets!
Debbie and Larry were great! the communication prior to, during and after the sit was fantastic. i believe they left the house cleaner than it was when they arrived! we would highly recommend debbie and larry for your sit, and would definitely have them back for another pet sit in the future. thanks again debbie and larry!
TaraChental
Whatcom County, Washington
Recent empty nester ready to start a new journey!
We were very happy to have chosen Tara to stay with our 2 cats. Communication was great, the house was left in perfect condition when we got home, and the cats were very happy. We would definitely recommend her! Thank you so much, Tara!
Leo
Whatcom County, Washington
Peace of Mind -- Taking care of your home and pets as our own.
Leo and Richelle were wonderful and this is consistent to the other stays with us. They are super organized, ask great questions and very attentive to Enzo. They kept wonderful notes during their stay on the house and Enzo. Always very self sufficient and respectful of the space they are caretaking. They took exceptional care of Enzo, provided great feedback on his behavior and eating habits while we were gone. I appreciate the care and attention they put into everything they do. Leo did have access to our car while we were gone. Just like everything else he is responsible for, the car was taken care of perfectly. He is super responsible on all fronts. We are always happy to welcome them back for another sit. We feel very lucky to have connected with them.
Kristina
Whatcom County, Washington
Pet and home lover looking for house sits in BC Canada
Well, we were lucky enough to get Kristina to sit for us once again! This time, Kristina had to deal with a rodent problem in our house (yes, it happens to the best of us!) while we were gone and she was amazing! She got together with our wonderful neighbour who has a cat and arranged to 'borrow' the cat to do some hunting at our house. The situation was taken care of (temporarily of course, as we are now dealing with it to ensure it doesn't happen again). Kristina is a star! Once again, we returned to a pristine house and a home-made loaf of sourdough bread. Could it get any better?!?! We think not. The only problem with Kristina is that she is becoming too popular and we are afraid we might not be able to get her for our next sit!
Barbara
Whatcom County, Washington
Spending time away from your precious home or pets? I'm the one for you!
Barbara is an amazing pet sitter and we wouldn't hesitate to have her back. In fact, we did ask her to come back and gave her our next dates, but she is booked. If you choose Barb, you'll find a physically fit person with a great personality, completely trustworthy, tidy, communicative, and mentally stable. Barb left our house spotless. She washed and dried the sheets and towels, and the place looked great when we returned. All I can say is that Barb is a great find! If she lived closer, we'd want to be friends with her. Our trip was one week long. Since this was the first time we've left our cats, we were naturally fretting. Barb came a day early to meet the family and learn the routine, which was truly above and beyond the call of duty. Over the course of the week, she sent us text updates and photos, and she responded to our texts without too much delay. Our two cats want her to come back! At first, Milo hid and wouldn't sneak out until Barb went off to bed. (He's a shy kitty.) But by the third night, Milo was snuggling on the bed with her and they were best friends. Finnegan, our outgoing cat, checked her out and gave her the seal of approval right away. When we arrived home, I think our pets were actually disappointed that Barb had left. They wanted her to stay. We recommend Barb with the highest number of stars in every category. We'd give her more than 5 if we could.

Happy and YOU know it!!
Kelly was great! The cats and our house were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and hope she'll be available for another sit at our house sometime. Thanks, Kelly!
James
Whatcom County, Washington
Young Professional. Pet-lover. Travel Enthusiast.
James was a great petsitter for my two cats. His communication was good before and during the sit, he sent daily and photos. James was able to meet me before to have a short tour and keys handoff. Overall everything went smoothly and I appreciate the care for my pets while I was away!

Happy Sitters
After30hours of travel, we arrived home to the stench of a messy pile of runny dog poop. I had to clean it off the hardwood floor right then. Then I noticed a bowl of water. (That should be outside) and the animals had slopped water all over the hardwood floor. Shortly thereafter my husband found some poop and a bunch of paper towels that had clogged up the downstairs toilet. Every time we turned around we found more. A bunch of food left in the fridge, a whole bunch of damage to the plaster in the wall next to a sliding glass door. The floors were filthy and sticky. Not vacuumed. House was definitely dirty. Towels just sitting in the washer. There was much more. When confronted with the evidence, he out and out lied. “I never used that toilet” “My daughter wouldn’t have touched the antique Lionel trains that they were specifically told not to touch”. Even though they had been played with. We have only ever had FANTASTIC people with zeewoi, but this was the WORST experience. He was also very non responsive to texts, did not keep me updated on our babies, so I worried the whole. Time. I was gone. It was awful.
Reviews from Cat Owners
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.
Daniel
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!

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Joel and Esme
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!
Regina
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!
Ann
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house

Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
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.
Paola
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Nancy
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.

Kim is amazing! She absolutely loves animals and takes great care of them. She is super flexible and always willing to work around our schedules as much as possible. She goes out of her way to make for the best experience possible for her clients and their animals. Our dog has been going to Kim’s for about 7 months and loves it every time. She feels right at home in Kim’s house and is well cared for and loved. We can’t recommend Kim enough!
Kim is a trustworthy person. She loves taking care of dogs and when our family go on a vacation trip we all know that our pet Rico is in good hands with her. We highly recommend Kim!
Kim is amazing, she has gone above and beyond for us in caring for our two dogs. Our youngest had a UTI and bladder stones while we were away. Kim drove her to the vet and took care of her for us. She also sends updates, videos and pictures of our dogs.
I was fortunate to find Kim at Pet Pleasers in early 2020. I have a little Boston Terrier named Ariel that is always with me. When I had to leave for a location that I could not bring her, I considered cancelling my trip. Since Kim had gone to my school years ago and I knew who she was, I contacted her and had a few discussions over FB and eventually went to her house to check it out. She has such a dog friendly home. A safe fenced back yard, double gated front entrance and she treats the dogs just like her own. I was very impressed that she also wanted to have Ariel spend a few hours at her house to make sure she got along with everyone and that she wouldn’t pose problems for other dogs. That’s so important to me that she doesn’t simply accept any dog. She makes sure that she reduces the chance of problems that can occur due to animals that may be too aggressive or cause problems for other animals. She truly does everything she can to provide a safe and fun environment for every animal she cares for. I left Ariel for a few hours to see how she did and she did great, playing with other dogs and running around freely. After that I left her for a week and was pleasantly surprised to get the occasional picture and video from Kim showing me how Ariel was doing. Although I bring Ariel’s crate along, Ariel has free roam of the house and yard all day long and most of the time she jumps on Kim’s bed at night and sleeps on the bed…just as she does at home. I can’t say enough good things about Kim and Pet Pleasers. I no longer have to worry about Ariel being constantly locked in a cage, or deal with the scams that so many other kennels have where they want to charge you $5 for a daily hug, or $10 for 5 minutes of one-on-one time, etc. Kim is open and honest and provides a friendly, loving home-like environment for the dogs she cares for. Her pricing is very reasonable with no extra charges for paying attention to your dog. She clearly loves animals and you can be sure she will treat your dogs like her own. I will never go anywhere else and I’m so glad to have found Kim at Pet Pleasers. I may miss my dog when I have to go away but I know she’s in good hands and don’t have to worry about her. You can’t go wrong with Kim of Pet Pleasers and I believe that once you try her, you will never go anywhere else either.
Kim is amazing with our dog! We always love having Kim watch our Daisy because we know she will be able to run and play and not be stuck in a kennel all day. Communication is great and Kim is very easy to work with. Thanks Kim!
Our senior bichon, Louie gets stressed at traditional boarding kennels. Kim from Pet Pleasers treated him like part of the family. It is a relief to have someone so great with dogs taking care of him in a home setting. Will continue to book here and recommend!
Pet Pleasers is truly like sleepover camp for our doggo! Kim’s care and consideration for the animals in her care is evident from the happy barks that greet you upon arrival. There is plenty of safe space for them to roam and play, and when it’s time for rest, they have their choice of several warm and comfortable beds. We’ve never boarded our dog before we met Kim, and it’s a relief to find someone who loves him as much as we do. Pet Pleasers for the win!
Kim has been great with my great dane Jaxi! She can be a nervous Nellie and Kim understand her needs and always makes sure she is comfortable. I have left her there for longer vacations and overnight stays. Jaxi is always glad to see me come back but Kim always sends me pictures and messages while I’m gone letting me know Jaxi is having a great time. Wouldn’t take her anywhere else!!
Don't like leaving our Pomeranian, Bija with anyone, but he's treated like family at Kim's place. Just like at home he's able to sleep on the bed and watch TV. By request she will send pictures and a report of how he's doing. We have total confidence that Bija gets the attention he deserves.
I am not comfortable leaving my husky just anywhere or with anyone! Kim is the only person I have ever left her with when I leave town that I feel good about. Taken care of, safe, not in a kennel or crate with small bits of "play" time. Its a healthy environment that i have no concerns for dog illness such as parvo or kennel cough. I drive 45 min to leave my girl with Kim.

We have been taking our dogs to Deb for a while now and they love it! One of our dogs has severe separation anxiety, so having somewhere with caring staff that caters to small dogs allows us to take some time for ourselves without feeling guilty about neglecting our doggies! If you have a dog that’s under 25 pounds, definitely look into daycare and boarding at 3 Schips!!
Love love love! Our dog Pax LOVES going to play with friends. Deb and staff are truly wonderful with the pups. We’re so grateful for these folks. We do day care once a week and also board when we’re out of town. What a life-savor. Again, SO grateful!
Such a special spot! Our small (pandemic) pup was apprehensive about other dogs and people but we wanted an option for her to socialize. Deb and her lovely staff worked with us to ease her in to daycare, and it’s been a game-changer. She now LOVES her 3 Schips days: goes in tail wagging, comes home happy and pooped from all the fun. Sweet staff, details on behavior/activity provided each visit, and excellent communication.
Need a great place for your small dog to play and have fun? Then this is the place for your pupper. Deb and her amazing staff always provide wonderful service and support. They monitor the animals closely and provide daily report cards for fur baby mommas and poppas. Deb usually requires a day's notice prior to drop off. If you don't call prior, then don't be surprised if you have to be turned away. She will work with you for special circumstances, but the responsible thing to do is to communicate with Deb so she has a heads up. I think I can speak for most of us when I say that I appreciate Deb's desire to ensure proper staffing and pup limits. She does this by asking us to call at least a day prior to you doing off your pup. Cash is king here, so payment options are limited.
We have been bringing our Yorkiepoo here for about 31/2 years. He absolutely loves coming here. The owner Deb and her staff are true dog whisperers and they love our dogs and their job. They only take small dogs up to 25 lbs , but it's a great place to take your dog. They come home happy and very tired!
Cooper loves day are at 3 Schips and a Girl. This little doggie daycare is wonderful. The little furry kids have a beautiful, inside and out, facility to play in. Cozy chairs to cuddle with each other, and benches outside to chill on in between zomies in the play yard. I highly recommend 3 Schips and a Girl!
This is a great place to board your small dog. Very caring and professional. We boarded our small cocker for 5 days without any problem. Would highly recommend Deb and her staff.
The best dog daycare, tailored to small dogs. Deb Bruner and her staff are very attentive to the dogs and understand dog behavior. Adorable decor, and very clean
My pup loves it as much as they love him!
Best doggy daycare ever

Had the pups nails done, quick and good enough considering the pup is not cooperative. The place is a bit stinky but I guess it would be hard not to be 🤷🏻♀️ I haven’t been to many groomers. I’ll be back! …
I just picked up my two Springer Spaniels and I am really happy with what a great job Pooch Palace did! I usually groom them myself and I can be a bit nit picky. There are no shaver lines and their paws were trimmed up really nicely. I am starting a new career and will definitely bring them back to save myself the hassle. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
This place is a gem. I love the homey feel our dogs have. Our big shepherd likes to hang out with the Littles. The staff is friendly and amazing with our dogs.
You can really trust this place. Heather and her staff are definitely pet lovers! As well as insuring that your fur baby is safe and happy they can deal with other issues like medical care, anxiety, old age. I know my pets are in good hands always.
Took our shaggy Boi in for his annual cut and couldn't be happier. They did exactly what we wanted, and his paw-de-cure makes him stealth again. Thanks a bunch
This place has been a godsend, Heather is so kind, patient, and passionate about animals, you could just tell by meeting her. I'm usually a bit skeptical when it comes to someone else caring for my dogs but I'm not worried when it comes to bringing my dogs to the Pooch Palace! They have a great time and we're happy they have a fun, safe environment. 10/10 would recommend and it's been my 3rd time using the dog boarding service and definitely not the last. Thank you again, Heather and team!
Specifically asked you not to touch our dog's tail hair. Especially the amazingly cool white tip. You indeed did not touch any of the other tail hair with the exception of chopping off the amazingly cool white tip after we asked you not to. I was able to overlook the bowl cut you gave him but you just had to cut off that tail hair didn't you. We will never be back. Pooch Palace, I think not more like pooch poor house.
Left our black lab and German shepherd pups here for 9 days. They came back washed, groomed, and toenails clipped. Wasn't even expecting that! Plus the prices are unbeatable. They also offer a military discount! Thank you pooch palace! We are definitely return customers!
This place is a gem! My two dogs and two cats recently stayed with them for almost three weeks, and they took very good care of them. Highly recommend
This was my first time taking my elder cocker spaniels to Pooch Palace. The gals were really nice and attentive to the things I shared about my dogs, giving them a little background on each of them. They let me know how much it would cost, and I found them to be very thorough. I did think they were a bit more expensive then some other places, but the professionalism and cut was definitely top notch and completely worth it. I am very happy, and my pups look cuter then buttons! I would totally recommend. Thank you 😊 Update...from the first groom to the 3rd groom, I went from 65 a dog to 90 per dog!!! My dogs are cockers...I wondered why and just figured they priced me right outta there. Too bad, nice folks there. I drop my stars, am dissappointed☹

We have used Kayla several times and she was great! We have 3 dogs and they just love her. She is meticulous in caring for them & our house is always clean when we return from traveling. Highly recommend her for day visits or overnights.
Kayla provided exceptional house sitting and drop in visits to my kitten and 2 pups! She is extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and kind. I get nervous leaving my pets with new people, and Kayla kept me updated with pictures and little blurbs about how my kiddos were doing! It was a very stress-free process, and I cannot say enough good things about her services!
Kayla is reliable and communicative. I don’t worry about my pets under her care and know they love spending time with her.
Kayla has taken such amazing care of our two dogs and cat on many occasions. She sends wonderful updates throughout our time away and our animals love her tons!!!
Kayla has a love for animals. It was evident in her interactions with our anxious and dramatic, middle aged pooch. She is kind and eager to deliver whatever you set out for her to do. We highly recommend her whether it be for a day or a lengthy stay.
Kayla has taken care of our boys many times! She is trustworthy and professional and most importantly loves our dogs as if they were her own. We will definitely be using her services in the future! Kate & Chad
Kayla has taken excellent care of my special needs cat. She is super friendly and attentive. My cat loves her!! Highly recommend!

Beautiful and wonderful farm! My Alaskan Malamute stayed here for one week. Very clean and well maintained. Tracie is amazing! She is very sweet and great communication. She kept in touch everyday and let me know how my dog was doing. He got to play outside on the farm and play with other dogs. When I picked him up he looked well taken care of. He looked great and was so happy!! I will definitely bring him back. I feel very comfortable leaving him in good hands.
Amazing place, great price. Our dog loves it here.
They take great care of our fur buddy when we are out of town!
Great place to ride!!! Loved it
