Mature Clean Conscientious Canadian Couple with house sitting experience
Josephine and Jason were amazing. Totally self sufficient and they seem to impart a joy to everything they do. Olive was a happy camper, they taught her to swim and to do a high five. The house looked great on our return and all our plants survived through incredible heat. We would love to have them back! Thank you both for your great care!

Retired prof. couple who have been pet owners for 35+ yrs & like to travel.
Jude and Wendy were a pleasure to have sitting at my house and taking care of my Kacey. He was very good at communicating before and during the sit. He would send daily photos and updates of their time with Kacey. They gave Kacey the best vacation while I enjoyed my vacation. They left my house in excellent condition, cleaning it before I returned home. I felt very comfortable being out of the country knowing they were taking good care of Kacey and I hope they can watch her again during my future trips.

Quirky couple in love with pet snuggles & belly rubs, while keeping a tidy home
Absolutely adored Melquea! Her energy and dependability are out of this world. Her and James took such good care of Oatly and our apt. It made us feel reassured that Oatly was in good hands and well loved. Thanks for everything, I hope we can meet next time and do another housesit!

Nicole was fantastic! She was super clean, organized, easy going and took great care of Milo! He was very happy to be in her company. She was easy to communicate with and provided appropriate updates. I can't say enough great things about Nicole.

This was the second time Viviana watched Joe, and like the first time, I can’t think of having had a better experience for both myself and Joe! Highly recommend :)

My favorite days are spent lending a hand in the company of animals.
I highly recommend Sharon & can’t think of anyone I’d rather have stay with my pets. She is wonderful & did everything in her power to make sure we had an enjoyable trip before she even arrived. We came home to a clean house & very content dog. From first greet at the door, it was like Cleo had known Sharon for years. He can be a little bit standoffish sometimes, so that says a lot about her. He was treated like a king. Sharon was focused on Cleo & took the time to do all the activities he loves to do everyday (a long list) & provided lots of updates. Cleo is obviously disappointed. Sharon has left. Hoping she will come for another visit soon!

You had me at WOOF
Clear concise communication, arrived as pre-arranged and stayed until we returned. The home was returned to same condition as when we left, pets were healthy and happy. Great pet photography as well! Glad to have Kent help out, definitely recommend 😊

Dog Trainer and Pet Care Business Owner looking to meet adorable pets world-wide
Liv was absolutely wonderful! She is very experienced with pets. She was patient with our rescue Mango and new how to handle nervous dogs. She took care of Mango and our second dog Tina, taking them on walks and playing with them. She left our house very clean. I felt very comfortable leaving Liv taking care of our dogs and house. She provided daily updates. Highly recommend!

After raising 4 kids, I am ready to take good care of your precious ones!
Kerin provided exceptional care for our dogs while we were away. From the start, she was thorough and attentive, asking detailed questions to ensure she understood our dogs' needs. As first-time users of Zeewoi, Kerin patiently guided us through the process, easing any concerns we had. Her dedication was evident when she visited the day before our trip to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our home. She handled our strong-willed Pyrenees, Wally, with ease, showing great patience and understanding of his quirks. Throughout our time away, Kerin maintained open communication, keeping us informed of any developments or concerns. Not only did she care for our dogs, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning our house, even folding a load of laundry left in the dryer! And all of my plants are thriving! Thanks to Kerin, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in capable hands. Upon our return, it was clear they had been well-loved and cared for. We are incredibly grateful for Kerin's exceptional service and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dogsitter.
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her! Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload. But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too. Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control. Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures. If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!
Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
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!!
As ever, Charlie was the perfect dog/house sitter - took loving care of our dog and looked after the house and garden as if they were her own; all returned in immaculate conditon!
You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!

Sara is the best! She's been grooming my pups for the last 7 years. ❤️
We met the owner and mother. They are wonderful people who only board a small number of pets at a time with one of the most home-like kennels I have ever visited. Since it pets are out kids, we went the nicest for them. Total enclosed yard for the big dogs to have lots of play space. TV and music, nicely heated.
I was not at Tame the Wild. I was at For the love of pets and it was absolutely amazing. Sara Joss always does such a good job on all my dogs but especially my Newfoundland. He always comes back so shiny and smells so good❤
I needed boarding for only a few hours on a Sunday. I called Tame the Wild early in my search, and although they were full, Melissa said she might be able to make room for my pup If needed. After calling literally 17 kennels from Syracuse to Rome, I found myself calling back a week later. Melissa remembered me, checked her book, and moved her boarders around to accommodate us. She was so helpful and so friendly! The rate was EXTREMELY reasonable too. Tame the Wild saved our doggie butts! I am very grateful! Thank you!
The people here are so wonderful. They always seem to fit me in. Even if it is a litter of 7. They do such a wonderful job. Thank you tame the wild for your services.
Sarah is awesome! Ace lives the attention. Would recommend to anyone!
I took my two Golden’s to Sara! They were beautifully groomed and came home happy and tired. Great groomer!
Excellent boarding and grooming. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.. certainly tames our wild pups..
The owner has been great and takes good care of our fur babies.
Sara always does a great job on our two puppies
I have a old english sheep dog have been taking him there but this time when taking him there she said I’m not brushing him I have no time. She knows it take a while being a sheep dog and is why she always takes him last. Her other girl no longer works there it would of been nice after my confirming my app when I text her day before that she could of said no. I drive 45 min one way to get there. Her report on her site says she is good. I guess my dog it one she cannot do
I have a miniature dachshund who has a mind of his own and definitely has a view of how things are going to be done to him. My dachshund has given many groomers a piece of his mind and also tried to take a piece out of the groomer when things did not grow his way. However when he met Sara he met his match. She has a great way of letting the dog know who the boss is and for the first time my dachshund respects her and lets her do anything she wants to him. If you are looking for a groomer who has a special way of dealing with dogs Sara is your girl. She's always on time, starting with your dog and finishing when she says she'll be done. I highly recommend her and For the Love of Pets. The name of her business speaks for itself.
Sara is an amazing groomer. She is quick and thorough and loves all the pets she cares for. She has found medical issues while grooming and told us to double check with our vet. Love taking my dogs to her and they love seeing her.🥰 …
Ive been going here with my dogs for years! I havent even looked elsewhere since she has set up shop. Talented, caring, and professional staff; fully equipped facility for grooming & boarding; always punctual, flexible, and accomadating! Her fees are reasonable for a dog grooming place but the fees are low for the high quality On-time service you get from Sarah! We are very fortunate to have this level of service in such a rural setting!
She is absolutely amazing, It's very hard to leave your dog somewhere while you are away but I know he will be well taken care of there and am worry free.
Sara is always friendly and does a great job with dog grooming. I would definitely recommend For the Love of Pets.
She does a good job with the dogs but she does not contact you back. I have tried several times on different occasions to get an appointment but it takes too long to hear from her.
Such a great operation and in a small town that I know has plenty of animals. My dogs are never unhappy dropping them off.
Boarded my 3 dogs here a few times now. They are great!!! They take good care of the dogs and everything is clean
Very good cut at a reasonable price
