Never cancelled a sit, all boosters, non-smoker, traveling solo
Maureen was a treat from start to finish with our home and cat, Poppy! She is perhaps one of the most organized sitters we have encountered on zeewoi. Her resume speaks for itself. She was eager to sit, despite it being a somewhat short notice (about 10 days). Upon arrival we received pictures of Poppy to let us know that she was in good hands. We also got daily updates in the evenings, which we enjoy. Maureen stayed at our home during the coldest stretch of the year, and came prepared with heating blankets, etc, which we appreciated as we only have space heaters currently. We would be happy to host Maureen any time. Her communication and experience are certainly top notch and your pet will be in great hands!

Dependable animal lover excited to care for your fur babies and your home.
Terry was great to work with and great at communicating every step of the way. He has the experience to know what questions to ask, and went the extra mile to work with our travel schedule when we were dialing in dates and times. I could tell he was a pro at making our two dogs feel comfortable and well taken-care of. We returned to find two happy dogs and our place just the way we left it - only maybe even a bit cleaner!

Janet and Gregg looked after our house and pets like they were their own! They left everyone happy and fat, the house was pristine. We would not hesitate to recommend them to you! Thanks to both of you for making this experience so positive!

Professional, kind, mature couple, extensive home-owning & pet care experience
We recently had the pleasure of having Kim and John house-sit for us again, and as before, we couldn’t be happier! Kim is detailed, professional, tidy and caring. Heimo was very happy to see her again which is most important. And there was a beautiful fresh fruit salad waiting for me in the fridge! Thank you Kim :)

Life is great, but it would be even better exploring with your pets
Molly and Rick were wonderful with our sweeties, and great communicators. I also appreciate the efforts that they made to keep the apartment clean, including the sheets and towels so I won't have to add this to my plate when coming back from the weekend with three teens.

Actor & filmmaker. Lover of culture & experienced sitter of homes & animals
Mae and Ted were wonderful! They took great care of our pets and home and we had a lot of yard watering because we had newly planted trees and plants and no rain! We also had a situation where our hot water heater died literally the night before they arrived and they had to put up with that over a holiday weekend until it was repaired on Tuesday. They are professional, very self sufficient and left our home looking beautiful. I recommend them highly for any situation, we will certainly request them again if the need arises. Thanks Mae and Ted!

If you want someone to love & care for your fur babies as his own, I'm your guy.
This was the first time Ava has had a pet sitter. Richard was great with her and took her for long walks and over activities. He also spent time with her prior to the house sitting dates. I felt very comfortable and grateful that Richard was caring for Ava. She was happy and relaxed when I returned. Thank you!

My pets are my children and your pets will be my adopted children ❤️
Tracy arrived promptly and provided good care for my dog. She was attentive to him and he seemed in good shape when I got home.
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!
Piper was a wonderful sitter and I would definitely have her come again. My dog .Winston loved her and was very happy while I was gone. When I returned home everything was orderly and clean, she changed her bed and washed all the towels. I totallly recommend Piper to sit at your home.
First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
Veronica House sat for us for a month. She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat. Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals. They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them. When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe, she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity. She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks. This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy. A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in. Our cat was so content and well-groomed upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention, too. Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day. I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home. We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.

We have used Serenity Paws several times and have always been thankful for Kim’s service for our dog. She is able to customize her care for our dog. Unfortunately, our dog does not get along with other dogs and Kim has been able to accommodate for that. It’s also reassuring that our dog is comfortable with her. We have already recommended her to friends and plan to continue using her for our future dog sitting needs.
Our greyhound stayed with Kimberly at Serenity Paws for 13 nights. We had a previous horrific experience with another large kennel in the area and we were looking for someone that could give some personalized attention and love to our boy. We did 2 trial runs at serenity paws and all went well so we decided to trust Kimberly with his stay and we are so glad we did! He is a fragile dog with very specific needs and some anxiety but Kimberly and her staff did a great job with him. He came home the healthiest and happiest he has evern been after boarding. We also very much appreciated the photos/ videos she sent to us while we were overseas so that we wouldn't worry about his well-being. The peace of mind that is given is priceless.
I was referred to Kim by my vet as my dog was terminally ill & needed special care. Kim took excellent care of my dog & I could tell my dog was happy to go & happy when I picked her back up every time. I would refer Kim to anyone who has a pet whether the situation is unique or not. Your pet will be in great care.
I am so happy I found Serenity Paws! Kim is amazing with the animals. She has boarded and trained our puppy twice and both times I have been really impressed with his progress. The property is gorgeous and the facilities are super clean. 10 out of 10!
Kim was highly recommended to us by DVM / Surgeon Dr Broaddus at Hanover Veterinary Specialists, as our pup needed knee surgery and follow-on lengthy rehab. This was just after I had a hip replacement - so both our pup and I needed time and space to heal. Not only did she provide daily rehabilitation boarding care for our pup, but also transported him to / from Lock A. Taylor Veterinary Clinic in Glen Allen to provide him with Laser treatments and Hydro therapy during his recovery. Kim is the most caring person we’ve met in the animal care field. She provides an absolute haven for dogs with medical needs, and trains owners in ways to help their dogs recover. We highly recommend her!! Thank you Kim!
Kimberly, is the one person I can trust to care for my dog.. As my dog has aged requiring more nuanced daily care, finding a place to board her each year while I’m overseas for three weeks became a challenge…..until I found Kimberly! Most kennels keep the dogs together, which can be overwhelming for an older pup-especially an introverted rescue like mine. And she gives each dog individual care and attention, so Hava is never overlooked bc of the more rambunctious kennelmates Add to this the necessary assurance, when out of the country for an extended period, that any emergencies will be handled by Kimberly- an experienced veterinarian technician. Unlike most pet sitters, such as on Rover, who can not ensure my dog’s continued care in the event of an emergency with either themselves or my dog, having such a knowledgeable, professional, insured provider, who also happens to be an authentic animal whisperer to all creatures great and small, is a real gem. She will love your dog, and you will love the peace of mind knowing your dog is in good & tender hands! Kim&Hava🐕
OUTSTANDING!!! I can count people I trust with my pups on one hand. Kim at Serenity Paws is my number one! She truly cared about my big boy and what he and our family are going through. Jack recently became a special needs pup when he came down with IVDD that has him fighting to stand and walk on his own. Serenity PAWs years of experience with dogs just like Jack coupled with a sincere desire to take care served us well. After a 4 day stay he was stronger and more independent than when i dropped him off. The facility and kennel conditions put me at ease and are second to none that I have every seen. I highly recommend them if you are in search of a safe, clean and enriching environment staffed and ran by a true professional. I will be a customer for life.
So thankful we have Kim to come to when boarding! She takes excellent care of my dog when we are away. She’s always quick to respond & happy to help. Look no further, this is where you want your pups to be!
Kim was so gracious and flexible with our unique needs. She helped take care of our pups and save our family trip. And the pups were so well taken care of : )
If you’re looking for a very kind, true lover of animals, and a licensed veterinary technician with several additional certifications then you’ve found her at Serenity Paws. The owner, Kim, is all that and more. We wouldn’t think of leaving our pup with anyone else. She consistently works to assure that each pet is well cared for and safe. We feel very fortunate that there is such a wonderful place for “Frank” to vacation when we’re away.
This is my third time using Calypso Kennels for my dogs. I’ve always had a great experience and the staff genuinely cares about my pets well-being. I wouldn’t leave them with any other kennel. Thank you for being there for us!
This was our first experience using Calypso Kennels. We will definitely be using them again. Our dogs have never been to a kennel before and having the peace of mind that they were safe and well taken care of is priceless.
This was my first time boarding Lucy with Calypso. Staff gave us a tour as requested before boarding her showing all the areas with explanations of the use. We liked the concept of Lucy having her own kennel and outside run - while she is ok around other dogs, it's not her norm. She would much rather be around people - here they take the dogs on "potty break walks" and provide options for yard time (ie, a large fenced area where the dog can run free/play/do zoomies). They have several options you can add to the daily room fee to tailor the pups visit. Lucy stayed 5 days. Calypso provided a verbal and a written summary of her stay (activity level, how she ate, any noted bowel changes, what she seemed to enjoy - for Lucy it was lying in the sun on her external run). We rarely board Lucy - we take her most everywhere we travel. It's great to have a place available near home that pays good attention to her, provides her with a safe environment (ex, air conditioning, back up generators in case of a power outage, daily cleaned kennel, etc) and keeps us informed.
Calypso kennels took very good care of my three best friends while I was out of town. The staff was very attentive to their special needs and Lilo, Stitch, and Marty McFly seemed very happy and content while in their care. Thank you Calypso for taking care of my buddies.
My cat came home with no lingering spiteful behavior. That tells me that she had some solitude. Being a senior cat, she likes to have a place to curl up and be left alone. Unless she wants attention! The staff was super nice. The dropping off and picking was very easy. I would definitely recommend Calypso.
I used Calypso Kennels for the first time last week. I boarded my dog Thursday -Monday. The staff was very nice and professional. The facility is maintained very well. They took very care of my dog and even gave him a bath! I plan to use them for future boarding and daycare.
Calypso Kennels took great care of our feline and kept us well informed when we called to check on him. If they see a concern, that call to let us know. This was Achmed’s third time of being boarded and they took really good care of him. We highly recommend Calypso Kennels and we will continue to use them for boarding.
Calypso is such a nice place! I used to take my dogs there all the time and the employees are the best. I now take my cats there and they everybody is equally as amazing. I believe they provide great care for my pets and will be my go-to for pet boarding.
We are very confident that our dogs are well cared for! The staff are friendly and cooperative. They go out of their way to try and make sure you are happy and comfortable with leaving your pets with them. The groomers do a great job as well!
This place is clean, well maintained, and plenty of space. Staff is the friendliest of many boarding places. My two dogs will continue to be repeat customers.
