Low profile house sitter with lots of free time/love to give in Lehigh V.!
Just like the other two times Cherilyn accepted my sits, she was stellar. Cherilyn was responsive, she genuinely cared for my little ones, and she never fails to leave my home even cleaner than when she arrived. She even offered to stop by my home one last time to give the cats dinner when she found out I'd be later than usual getting back from my trip. Thanks for another great sit, Cherilyn!

I would love to care for your pets and your home!
Trish, her husband Peter, and their adorable pup Snoker looked after our Boxer pub, Schoggi while we were away. We received frequent updates and photos from Trish. Schoggi was well cared for, and seems to have had a blast playing with Snoker. In addition to looking after Schoggi, Trish and Peter watered our plants, collected the mail and took care of trash disposal. We came home to a clean house, and healthy dog. I should also mention, Trish agreed to extend her stay when the sitter I had arranged to stay had to cancel. I highly recommend Trish and Peter to care for your pets and home.

Sam and Miguel. Mature experienced, and responsible, loving pet caretakers.
Sam and Miguel are outstanding house and pet sitters! They took great care of my dog, including doing a consult with my vet when she seemed a little sick. I came home to a house and yard that were in better shape than when I left it! I would highly recommend Sam and Miguel. They are kind, compassionate and take their responsibilities to your pet and your home very seriously. I'm hoping to get them back for another sit in the future!

Climbing travelers looking for furry friends
Incredible sitter - came last minute and dealt incredibly well with an unusual stay where the last sitter had to leave in an emergency without cleaning the home - they cleaned everything up, documented the home, and made our cat feel right at home - thank you so much for such a great stay!

We love to travel like locals...the only thing we've been missing is kitties!
I loved having Kate here at my house and would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter. She came for a visit the day before I left on my trip. We had a great visit and Kitty and I had a chance to get to know her. I could see that they bonded right away. While I was away, Kate send pictures and even a video of Kitty playing with her new toy (she actually gave her two new toys). Kate also took care of watering my deck and porch plants, and did many other household details that I hadn't even thought about. She must have noticed that I collected owls, because she left me a lovely card, with an owl, painted by a local artist, that I plan on framing. This was totally unexpected and thoughtful. Yes, I would definitely recommend her.

Hannah was a very easy sitter to coordinate with. She took the time to have a video call before the sit and was prompt in sharing her flight information. She arrived prior to my departure so we could meet in person and go a quick walkthrough of my home. My cats seemed very relaxed when I returned and Hannah left my home tidy.

This was Kate's second sit with us. This time, Jaret joined her. I really appreciate that Jaret took the time to fetch keys and get to know the apartment and cats some days prior to the sit. I am sure that the cats were well taken care of by the two of them. Both furry friends were very relaxed when we returned. The apartment was clean, and our small garden was well-maintained. Unfortunately, there is a significant downside: our request not to leave items such as clothing, bags, or open suitcases on the floor, as our oldest cat (nearly 16y) tends to pee in/on them (she has this behavior since we got her as a baby), was ignored. This was despite a personal mention during our initial meeting with Jaret, specific warning in the Welcome Guide, and two reminders via WhatsApp when I saw photos of bags lying on the floor. Now, the wooden floor in two rooms of our brand new apartment is "decorated" with two large und one small dark/black urine stains, as the mishaps were only noticed days later and not cleaned up right away. This very costly damage is extremely frustrating for us, even more because it could have been easily avoided. To say that we are disappointed is an understatement.
Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
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!
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
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.
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.
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
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!
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.
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!

Great place for your fur babies. Very easy to work with, they take great care of your pets, and flexible. I had my Bernese Mountain Dog groomed there and he looked great at the end of his stay.
Definitely a hidden gem. Had a last minute emergency. I called to have my dog boarded and all places booked because it was a summer weekend. I spoke with the owner Don from Hamlin Kennel who took my dog. Sometimes emergencies erupt and Hamlin Kennel definitely stepped up making my emergency a lot easier on one end! When I picked my dog up an employee I spoke with was very professional and gave me great detail on my dog while she kenneled. It definitely seemed my dog, Sandy, was very happy while she was there. Thank you again Don and the Hamlin Kennel team!!😊
Professional, friendly and attentive from the drop off to pick up. Straight forward pricing at very reasonable rates. The kennel was very clean and staff answered all of our questions and sent us updated texts on how Gus & Oliver were doing. Highly recommend!
Do not take your dogs here, my friend was charged 800 for a week. And was not told about the price change. And the dogs didn't get a bath or anything special. What is going on when people charge more then they say and it's not that great service . Everyone needs to pay what they are told , not more when you pick up . Be safe out there , don't let them take advantage of you. And our pets.
The charges when we picked our animals up were different than what we were quoted when we made the reservation for our dog and cat. There were additional charges that we understood because our dog needed quarantine, and our cat was not doing well and needed medication from the vet. None of those additional charges were the issue. What was the issue was we made it clear our cat was diabetic when we made the reservation and we were told that it would cost five dollars per dose to give him his insulin twice daily. When we went to pick them up, we were charged $15 per dose instead of the five we were quoted which was a difference of $400. It takes less than 15 seconds to give a cat a shot of insulin in the scruff of his neck twice daily 10 hours apart. When I commented about the difference in the price with the owner, he told me there was no wiggle room In the final bill. I believe our pets were treated well and cared for but I also feel that advantage was taken Because we were on an extended vacation and they just figured we’d pay whatever. I don’t believe I would use them again.
Very irresponsible. No commination. Nasty attitude. Over charged. Didn't take care of my dog the way we asked for. Will never use them again
A hidden doggie gem! I have a very energetic rescue pup. Was looking for a local place where she could get some open play and socialization. Was recommended by friends and very thankful. This is a great place, such wonderful people. Fair prices, good hours, clean and tidy. My pup knows when we’re turning the corner and gets so excited!
I have been taking my Fur babies to Hamlin Kennels for the past two years! If you were to ask anyone who knows me, I am VERY Particular about where and with who I trust to leave them with. To say this Kennel was a great choice would be an understatement!! They are Wonderful!! After a complete tour and meeting several of the staff members I was absolutely positive I couldn’t go wrong and I was right. They took excellent care of my girls each and every time. They always came home smelling clean and fresh and happy! The owner is very responsive to calls and treats your fur babies as his own. As for pricing.. it’s all laid out in front of you before you make a reservation and if your still unsure it’s on the boards in the office or the owner is more than happy to discuss with you. Prices are more than fair for the services offered. Unfortunately I have recently relocated states away where the prices for boarding and grooming services are much higher. Hamlin Kennels are hands down the best choice for the area & we are truly going to miss them.
Great experience!! After bringing my dog here for numerous years I cannot believe these negative reviews which do not reflect my experiences. The staff is wonderful, professional and always willing to accommodate me and my pup and more importantly my dog gets excited to come here and use the facility along with the dog park. There is an information sheet with policies for new customers which you read and it’s obvious that the people with these negative things to say did not take the time out to read it pertaining to holidays, drop offs and pick up times. Don’t be discouraged from these demanding people, try them out and you will be very happy!!!
Thank you to the entire staff for allowing our boy to have a wonderful "vacation" while we were away. They set up a stay tailored to his needs and gave us the peace of mind we needed to feel comfortable choosing their establishment. He was happy to see us when we arrived but also looked back at a staff member who brought him out to us with a doggy smile and a spin as if to say "hey thats my mom and dad" and share with her his happiness of us being there before running into our arms full of joy. We could tell he felt comfortable there and when he came home he was his happy playful self. We played for hours and then he took a very relaxed nap afterward. It was difficult for me to be away from him for the time we were on vacation but the staff responded to my check in texts and kept me up on how he was doing. They loved him and he loved his stay. This is now the only place we will consider for his future vacations and plan to set up play dates soon.
