Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
We loved Misty!!!! She was absolutely the most perfect baby sitter for our dog and an amazing short term tenant at our house. Not only did she keep the house clean but she even washed everything she used before we got home. We even got a couple gifts from her. She is such a sweet human, kept in contact with us while we were gone and sent videos of the hikes and walks they went on. I would 100% ask her to stay at our house again
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
Liz did an amazing job babysitting our home and our pets (3 cats and a dog). Communication with Liz was easy and we felt at ease knowing that everything was being taken care of. Liz took our dog Summer for daily walks and kept her entertained. We got regular photos of our pets which were great. She even looked after and watered many of our outdoor and indoor plants! She was very tidy and our home was left spotless. If you are looking for a sitter we can't recommend Liz highly enough!

The Out & Abouts offered by Creatures Pet Care are great for my dog, Nora!! She goes to places she’s never been, & is challenged with new smells, new things to see, new people…& this is so good for her!! I love the way Tami gives me a detailed report on how Nora is doing/did - complete with pictures!! Nora is in the best hands possible!! I love Creatures Pet Care!!
Creatures Pet Care has not only improved my pitbull's behavior, they have helped me and Beatrice Sweetie establish a trusting relationship. Their services are an essential investment for me.
We have used Creatures Care the last couple of years to care for our furbabies for everything from weeklong crosscountry vacations, to quick, last minute weekend trips. I am so grateful we found a group we can trust with our cats and dog. My cats are super picky, and one has medical issues requiring daily medication. Danielle and Libby have taken such good care of all of them. The updates each visit provide tons of peace of mind. We regularly refer our friends and family to them!
We got a recommendation to try Creatures Pet Care after one of our pups had a bad time during a kennel stay. They were absolutely amazing, sharing photos and all of the activities they did during staff visits. It brought us such peace of mind to know our dogs were cared for at home and not just that, they also received constructive play time and best of all, lots of love. This is a fantastic service with wonderful staff and a great system for scheduling and providing updates!
I have been impressed by the professionalism and qualifications of Creatures Pet Care. In particular, we appreciate the daily text and photo updates, record keeping system, and their responsiveness to requests. Tami has been great about never assigning a new sitter that we haven't met and approved. Erin has been an excellent addition to the team for cats 😺. Creatures Pet Care is a tad more expensive than my previous pet sitters, but they're definitely worth the price.
I would highly recommend Creatures Pet Care to anyone looking for high quality, compassionate, pet-loving providers. Tami does an excellent job with our 8yr. old mini goldendoodle. Her professionalism & patience alleviates any concerns we have while away. Our dog is given so much love & “pampering”; the photo updates are great too! Very grateful to have found Creatures Pet Care, and Tami!
Tami and Abbey are simply the best. On the initial meeting our very reactive dog immediately warmed up to Tami. I knew we made the right choice when I saw this. They send you lots of pictures and give you a full report during their drop in visits. They truly love and care for our pups as if they are their own.
Tami is knowledgeable and professional. She took great care of my pet when I was out of town. She makes sure she communicates and she sends pictures of how things are going. Her web site works very well. I recommend Creatures Pet Care highly!! You can have confidence that everything will go as described and your pets will have great care.
Creatures Pet Care, especially Tami, are absolutely wonderful! Tami has been coming about once a week for a little over a year to do training walks and let outs for our dog and we’ve had nothing but the best experience. They send the best updates and photos and it’s so nice knowing we have dedicated, professional, reliable, and knowledgeable people taking care of our dog and getting him exercise on days he has to be alone long. Also, when he was just doing training walks, we saw a difference in how he walked on a leash even after one or two walks! To top it all off, we brought a foster dog into our home only a few days before one let out visit with our dog and I reached out to Tami seeing if there was any issue with two dogs as opposed to one, knowing it was last minute, and I would’ve completely understood if this wasn’t something she could do. Tami assured me with no hesitation that it was not a problem at all and when the day came that she did the let out with both of them, I admittedly was nervous because both dogs are still somewhat puppies with a lot of energy and still getting used to each other and their playing styles and I knew deep down they’re much more work than the normal let outs she was used to. Low and and behold, the check in update and photos came and it was a breath of fresh air that everything went great and that she genuinely seems like she truly enjoys her time with our dog(s). I can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking for someone to check in on/take care of your pets when you’re away!
Creatures Pet Care of Kalamazoo has my highest recommendation. Tami has provided ongoing professional, efficient and effective strategies for working with the training needs of our family and our sweet (and easily stimulated) pup. Our family is having so much fun, is learning so much and is finding it rewarding to implement the recommended training that meet the needs of our dog. The positive changes that Tami has helped implement were apparent quickly, are building and will be lasting. We're so thankful to be working with Creatures Pet Care of Kalamazoo!
We’ve been using Happy Paws Pet Sitting for the past several years when we travel, and couldn’t be happier with the care Jennifer provides to our 2 dogs. The girls adore her and it’s pretty obvious that she adores them too! Not only does she make sure our dogs have food and water, she spends quality time with them and provides plenty of hugs and playtime. Jennifer even takes short videos of each visit and sends them to us via text. We highly recommend Happy Paws Pet Sitting and can’t imagine leaving our pets with anyone else!
Jen has been pet sitting my pets for the last 3 years. I have a mastiff mix (over 100lbs) and several cats, and she provides each of my babies with individual and excellent care. Jen has also given my pets medication while pet-sitting with no issues. My pets love having her over, and she won over my skittish cat who doesn’t like anyone. I get text and/or video updates at every visit. I would trust my pets with no one else.
Jen has been our pet sitter for several years. She always does a fantastic job. She takes care of our 3 cats and 2 rabbits. She is dependable, truthworthy, and goes above what is expected. We love receiving her videos while we are gone on vacation. She is the best!!!
I’m so glad we found happy paws pet sitting! My dog is a senior dog and is now set in her routines. She typically won’t eat when we go away BUT she will eat for Jennifer! Sometimes more than she eats for me! Jennifer takes the time to send me videos so I can see she is doing well and in addition to just the basics (taking her out and feeding her) she shows her affection and sits and spends time with her as well. It’s so nice to not be stressed about your pet when you can’t be there. I definitely recommend happy paws pet sitting.
Jennifer is our absolute go to for taking care of our three cats. The pictures and videos of her playing with and caring for them are the best part, and it helps so much that she keeps the toys, litter, etc so clean and tidy so we do not need to stress when we return from our trips. It gives us such peace of mind that she has close connections with our local vet and they highly recommend her. She would be at the top of our list for anyone looking for pet sitting in the area!
Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and chickens. She took the time to send pictures and videos which made me confident our sweet dog was doing great. I highly recommend Happy Paws!
Jennifer from Happy Tails Pet Sitting is a Godsend. My 8 year old pup isn't good with strangers. She is so patient and won him over in 2 short visits. Jen goes above and beyond to keep our pup happy and safe. We get text updates and videos. I don't think I've ever been this confident in leaving him, I'm 4 hours away via plane.
BEST cat sitter ever! Jennifer has loved and cared for our Buggins multiple times now, and she has been perfect! Gone multiple days? Not a problem. Take that vacation or that needed time away without any worry! Jennifer is consistent, understanding, goes the extra mile, and really loves and cares for your fur baby like her own.
Let’s put it this way, I think Jennifer is better with my pup than I am!! I trust her 100% and know my sweet pup is cared for and loved on. I travel often and feel that I have someone amazing I can rely on to care for my 4 legged family member. So grateful I found her!!!! Thank you!!! 🥰🐾 …
I am so grateful we found Jennifer to care for our cats whenever we are out of town. She cares for them as if they were her own. She sends us cute little check in videos and brings toys the cats love. You will not find anyone better to care for your pets!
Incredible staff! Fido has been such an incredible activity for our dog. The team really cares for the dogs here and I know they keep the pups well cared for and safe.
Fantastic place and staff. My golden is so happy and tired after a great day at CampFido. Lake-CampFido Camper since 2023 Woof.
Absolutely love camp Fido! The staff are wonderful and know all the dogs. They genuinely care about them and take good care of our boy Kenobi. He loves loves loves daycare days!
We love Camp Fido! We always trust them with our dog and it's her favorite place to go probably in the entire world! Whenever we say "you wanna go to camp?" she will jump up and start howling to go. They are very detail oriented and know the needs of each dog (ours is a mud eater and they always remember that so she doesn't eat mud like she has at other daycares). They give you daily report cards that we always look forward to getting. They are just the best and always keep our mind at ease that our dog is being taken care of!
We take our golden retriever Apollo here at least twice a month, if not more. He loves playing with the other dogs and with the employees. They always have fun activities lined up, and he always comes home exhausted; Exactly what we want! (I even got this horribly ugly picture of him on the way home once, enjoy). At this point, we have to be careful saying the word "camp" around him, as he'll immediately run to the door in excitement. It's very affordable as long as you don't try and treat it like a kennel. Thanks for being in the area, Camp Fido!
We finally joined Camp Fido last May after eagerly waiting for them to open more spaces for large dogs. Jess and her staff truly care about the dogs and their owners and they are more on top of things than any other doggie daycare we have visited in the area. They take the time to get to know the individual dogs and they are very communicative. Love it here!
Now that my pup knows this place exists, everywhere else is chopped liver 🙄 Camp Fido staff are wonderfully caring, and Jess has gone above and beyond answering questions to help this first-time dog owner feel comfortable. Apparently he even likes baths there - what the heck?! Attached is a representative photo of Owen completely SPENT after a day at CF 🥰 I could not recommend them enough!
My fur baby has been going to camp every day for the last year. We love Camp Fido! The owners and all the staff are great. There's plenty of room to romp, run and play. My pooch is pooped when he comes home lol. Clean facilities and great grooming services as well. I would highly recommend Camp Fido!
Camp Fido consistently puts their dogs first. If you're fortunate enough to get your dog their, you'll have expert care from people who actually care about your dogs. They have designed their enclosures to make sure your dog has a positive experience.
Camp Fido is a fantastic place for dogs! I take my Australian Shepherd (Aussie) regularly. In fact, I have to be careful when I say "Camp Fido" because she rushes to the door in excitement to go to "Camp." The staff is outstanding. The facility is clean and the dog wranglers treat my dog very lovingly. My Aussie comes home tired and content at the end of the day. Another fun thing is that I get a doggy report card with a name of a "best furry friend" for the day. It is worth every penny I pay to go. :)
Owner and staff are wonderful here. Responsive, patient, and kind in communication. They remember details about our dogs and always make me feel reassured the dogs are in good hands. …
This is a wonderful place for dog daycare and overnighting. My dog did very well here and all the staff were easy to work with. I knew my dog was well cared for and enjoyed being with the other dogs. He couldn't wait to get out of my car …
Thank you so much for taking such good care of our very best buddy who is such an important part of our family. I was apprehensive about leaving him because we haven't done so very often, but you all put my mind at ease with your knowledge, …
