Maria is all anyone could ask for while they are away... we have an older cat and she was very attentive to his quirky ways.... she also sent updates every day along with photos. I would highly recommend retaining her for your pet sit :)

THIS DREAM TEAM MAY BE YOUR BEST HOME, ANIMAL, & COMMUNITY CARE TAKERS! READ ON!
If you’re lucky enough to have Erik and Madison want to housesit for you, don’t think about it twice! They’re the most thoughtful, caring, kind, communicative house sitters you could have and all around wonderful human beings. This was their second time looking after our dogs (and now beta fish too!) and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you thank you thank you Madison and Erik! We hope we get to see you again in Seattle or Spain!
ELIZABETH
Elmwood, Maine
Responsible and compassionate animal companion. Former pet foster parent, curren
Betsy was amazing. From the first phone call to finishing the sit everything was perfect. We returned to a very happy Tom and a beautiful clean home. Tom was completely spoilt while we were away and is missing Betsy. Communication was superb with regular pictures and updates. If you ever have the chance of having Betsy sit for you. Jump at the chance. We highly recommend her and will have her back anytime.
Samantha
Elmwood, Maine
Travelling, pet-loving family of 3
Samantha was very communicative from the start and stayed that way throughout our trip. She sent daily updates and photos which we loved seeing and it was obvious that our animals were happy and well cared for. I had what I thought would be a 2 day repair project planned, and they were so flexible and patient when it turned into a full week! Yikes! Came home to a spotless house and happy animals and would welcome this nice family back anytime.
Pamela
Elmwood, Maine
Mature educators who love animals will take excellent care of your pets and home
We were so happy that Pam was available to watch our dogs again when we were away for a few days. She is always our first choice to take care of our two active Mini-American Shepards. They love to be with her as she knows them well and enjoys taking care of them. Pam is great about filling me in on her activities which always include walks to the beach, and around our neighborhood, ball play, and lots of loving attention. In addition, Pam is a great communicator, never hesitating to check in and ask questions if they come up. I know that both our house and dogs are getting the very best care with when Pam comes to sit. We never have to worry!

I am a perfect company for your loved one.
Tatsiana is AMAZING! She cares for my fur babies as though they were her own. And, they have adopted her as their own. I never have a worry when she's with them. She is so responsible and caring that it provides great piece of mind while I'm traveling.
MICHELLE

60-year-old full-time digital nomad, author
Michelle has sat for us several times and is always a great option. We would love to have her back. She is easy to make plans with and took terrific care of our dogs.
Kyle
Elmwood, Maine
Solo traveler trecking the globe!
Kyle was such a great sitter for our two cats, Buffy and Milo, while we were gone for a month hiking the John Muir Trail. He proved very self-sufficient, which was super important for us since we were hiking and out of cell service for most of the time. Something that stood out was his adaptability. A summer storm knocked out power for two days and Kyle took it in stride. Most importantly, we came home to two happy cats and a tidy apartment. If you are looking for a sitter, look no further than Kyle.
Starlet

Sports fan, Nomad, Lover of Food &Travel!
Starlet was excellent, and we enjoyed meeting her. She looked after Alice impeccably, arrived as scheduled, and all around did a great job! We would definitely ask her back.
Dawn
Elmwood, Maine
Mature woman looking to explore and spend time with your pets!
Dawn was the kind of sitter that you dream of having! My two kitties loved her, she sent pictures of them daily, and she was just thoughtful and awesome all around. I would love to have her come back anytime and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for piece of mind about your pets and home while you're gone!

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!
Koni
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.
Amanda
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!
Adrienne
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
Stewart
Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!
Courtney
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
Linda
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.

I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
Kathleen
Lisa was a terrific sitter for our sweet Rosie. She arrived the evening before the sit, and we immediately could tell how much love and attention Rosie was to get. She provided updates and pictures which we were delighted to read, and we could tell Rosie was happy and well-cared for with Lisa on their walks and fetching sessions, on their car rides, and during Rosie’s many daily naps. Lisa left the house in great condition, she’s very tidy and clean. Lisa’s experience with dogs and her friendly, sweet personality makes her an excellent sitter taking good care of animals while also being easy to communicate with. I would recommend her and would gladly invite her back.
Sarah
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.

100% Phoebe approved! Simply the best. My dog loves their daycare, and I love that she can blow off some steam with a game of “ball!” Their grooming salon does a terrific job, and I feel comfortable that my dog is safe and well cared for when we’ve used their boarding services. Every staff member loves what they do and the pets they care for and it shows.
This is such a wonderful place to take your dog for daycare and boarding. The staff are so friendly, and it feels like you're a part of their family. My Aussie loves going here, even after having some pretty bad separation anxiety. He was nervous for the first few trips, and now he runs toward the door when we get close. Highly recommend Bow Wow Lounge!
Great place to let your dog socialize and give you peace of mind. I absolutely love the staff at Bow Wow Lounge. I have seen marked improvement in my dog's socializing and overall temperament when he attends. I enjoy knowing he's getting his doggy time in a safe and positive environment.
I'm so happy that I'm able to take Gracie to Bow Wow. She has some anxiety and I never worry about her there. I know she's in good hands! Her anxiety usually disappears once she's there and if she's feeling a little anxious on any given day, they keep an eye on her to alert me that she may need some extra one-on-one time. From the front desk to the handlers, I love that Gracie gets to go play with her friends with this crew running the show.
Wow! This facility is incredible. Truly. And I’m a tough customer. My dog has issues and she’s been stressed lately but they’ve been incredibly patient and kind with her. And they’ve gone out of their way to soothe my anxieties. We’re new to the area and I’m thrilled I can bring my girl here. The staff is so personable and reassuring. They are all very impressive on every level. Most important, they know dogs and honor the intense bond between human and animal. I’m so grateful for finding Bow Wow Lounge. I know my dog will benefit greatly from her time spent here.
Bow Wow is a great place to send your dog! The staff really cares about and for them as if they were their own, and tries to make each dog‘s time there fun and enjoyable. Their retail is updated with cute seasonal stuff throughout the year too! My family’s anxious little dog has boarded there a few times and I know he’s in good hands :)
Our dogs love going to BowWow Lounge! We have two small dogs (chihuahua mixes) who go regularly for daycare, but we have also used the grooming and boarding services as well. They know our dogs by name and have always taken excellent care of them. Our dogs come home happy and tired every time. I’d highly recommend BowWow to anyone.
My dog and I LOVE Bow Wow Lounge! Staff is kind and helpful; facilities are nice (they recently finished renovations); and scheduling daycare, boarding, and grooming is easy! Last year, when I was new to Chicago and looking for a new daycare for my Aussiedoodle, I chose BWL based on promising reviews, what I already saw was the ease of booking services, and responsiveness to my questions. My dog was having some trouble in large group, getting nervous and overstimulated, which led to him acting out during his first days at daycare. His needs were easily accommodated by BWL with a tailored service—a brief, quieter playtime to start his day instead of launching into the ever-expanding group of dogs just arriving to day care—and now he hardly ever acts out in the same way! Everyone was and is super attuned and understanding! They also have really great insight into what my dog needs, and they get to know him really well! One day, I forgot to put his name on his bag of lunch and, upon remembering, was worried that would mean he would go without it, but it turned out that the handlers recognized my dog's food anyway and fed him with no problem (a reassuring outcome, if of minimal consequence). Sometimes, when I pick up my dog at the end of the day, the handler says that he did especially well that day, and I feel particularly grateful that I have BWL to help me take care of my big guy. We'll be using BWL for a while!
I wish there was an option to add more stars. BWL is incredible. They are a 2nd home, a 2nd family to my dog, Orfie (which I appreciate as a working, single dog-human). They let Orfie be Orfie in his playtime and they are very attuned to any health and behavioral issues that come up. Everyone who works there, whether at the desk or handling the dogs, is super friendly. I would encourage any dog humans to check out BWL, and for those who do not have dogs, I would encourage them to get one, just for the BWL experience.
My pup has been going to Bow Wow Lounge since he was 5 months old. He is now 5 years old and loves every minute he spends there. We have used all the services there and each experience is wonderful. The staff is amazing. I highly recommend Bow Wow Lounge!

I have been working with Este and Purrfect Pawz N Palz Cat Sitting for the past two years, and I absolutely loved it! Este has been taking care of my cats so well when I travel, and my cats both love her so much. She is able to accommodate my cats' diets and always provides them tons of love when I am gone. I always feel so secure having Este taking care of my cats, and the photos she takes are all really adorable! I can't recommend them more and recommend everyone living in the area to work with them.
My cat is always afraid of everything, including strangers and new people. I first tried out a different pet sitting company in Evanston and my cat never came around to like them or feel comfortable around them. So I tried the service with Este and it’s been wonderful. After several visits, my extremely shy cat opened up and started enjoying Este’s company! Now I can travel without worrying as much about how lonely my cat will be!
I've used Purrfect Pawz N Palz multiple times while traveling, and I couldn't be happier with this service. The owner, Este, is incredibly responsive and attentive, always making sure my cat is well cared for. She goes above and beyond, …
