Cinthia is a delightful caring & very friendly person. I have had Cinthia & Lionel before, & we have become good friends. . She loves looking after Bailey, & he is always so happy to see her.

Kim

House and pet sitter
I have been using zeewoi for approx 8 years and have had over 20 of your excellent people looking after my dog(s). Kim was amongst the very best. I am unable to fault her. Tilly was very well looked after and cared for; she looked wonderful on my return after nearly 3 months. The house was immaculate and all the bedding washed and the beds remade. She is so tidy and organised that I am having trouble finding everything!! She and John are very welcome to come back if it fits their future schedule.
Matthew

Experienced and well-travelled pet sitters based in New Zealand
Lovely to come home to a clean and tidy house and a happy cat. Matt and Katie very thoughtfully left us some fresh bread and milk as we arrived late at night - much appreciated! Communication was every good at all times. We would have them back again any time.

Zen-like Peace of Mind & Top-Notch TLC 4 Ur Fur Kids From a Mindfulness Trainer
I highly recommend Ildy!! We just returned from a five week trip and wanted to share our thanks and recommendation for Ildy. She loved on our 2 dogs, cat, and chinchilla just like we do. Frequent pictures and communication helped us to know they were doing great and were well taken care of. We returned home to a clean and tidy home which is so appreciated. Ildy is responsible, reliable, kind, caring, responsive, communicative and AMAZING! There are not enough thank yous to express our appreciation!!!!
Nicola
Papakura, New Zealand
Responsible pet-lovers with 11 years’ work experience in the pet industry.
Nicola and Chris did a phenomenal job housesitting for us and taking care of our Amazon Parrot named Yoshi. They were punctual, communicative, and they quickly warmed up to Yoshi and had no issues taking care of him. When we arrived home we were pleasantly surprised to see that it was neat, clean, and looked better than we had left it. Also, Yoshi was in bright spirits and totally comfortable. I would definitely invite Nicola and Chris back if they ever wanted to housesit again!
Maria
Papakura, New Zealand
Highly experienced dog carers but also great with any pets!
Maria and Will were incredible. They looked after our cat and 6 sheep and lifestyle property perfectly. The house was cleaner than when we left it! We got regular updates about our cat and photos too. They even stayed an extra night when we messed up our return dates from overseas - nothing was too much trouble - we would have them back anytime!!
Danielle

Former dog trainer, current tech manager, enjoying working remotely!
What a delightful couple. They looked after our house beautifully and most importantly took excellent care of Reba, our tricky Labrador. Dani & Mel are confident and experienced dog handlers who ensured Reba had plenty of exercise and stimulating activities while keeping him safe. We could not recommend Dani & Mel more highly. We (Reba too) are looking forward to their next visit.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Lainie
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.
Alaina
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Debra
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
Barbara
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.

Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Kim & Brian
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Laura
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!
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!
Jane
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.
Sidney & Larry
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!!

Recent Reviews:
As a new customer, I can’t thank you enough, Rachel, for the wonderful care you gave our sweet girl, Summer! This has been the best grooming service we’ve ever experienced. Summer’s haircut is absolutely adorable, and she feels as soft as a teddy bear! You’ve definitely earned our loyalty for life!
Perfect Pooch has been a great place for our cane corso puppy. She does group play daycare a few times per week while my fiancée and I are at work, and she comes home satisfied and tired because she had a great day playing with her buddies. We started taking her there when she was around 7 months old, and despite her shy personality, going to Perfect Pooch has really helped our pup establish healthy approaches and boundaries with other dogs of all ages and sizes. She is great around ALL dogs now, young and old, big and tiny, out in public. The staff is always friendly, drop offs/pickups are quick and easy, and when it comes to scheduling, they are as accommodating as they can be, which is much appreciated. If you have a busy schedule and don’t want your dog cooped up inside all day, I would recommend giving Perfect Pooch group play a try!
We love the friendly and welcoming staff at Perfect Pooch. They take good care of our dogs. We have done daycare and boarding for several dogs - large breed and small - over many years. We highly recommend Perfect Pooch.
Perfect Pooch has been taking great care of my two dogs for many years. I use them for Day care and Boarding, and have also had help from Michelle for training. They just got home this afternoon from a six day boarding and are tired, happy and well cared for. I highly recommend!
Michelle the trainer is wonderful. She has done an amazing job with my young beagle mix Charlie. She sends daily updates and home work with step by step instructions and videos. Charlie had 10 sessions and I see a huge improvement with following commands and behavior. Michelle also spent two one hour sessions with me going over his training to reinforce the behaviors as well as teach me how to continue with his training at home. Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome of the daycare training. Highly recommend Perfect Pooch for daycare training. I love the caring staff as well. Charlie gets excited when I pull up to drop him off which is everything to me. I will continue to have daycare sessions and boarding. I am Very pleased!!
We had only used a private sitter before trying Perfect Pooch and we are SO glad to have found a place our dogs love to be. We use PP for boarding, day care, and grooming and even have our dogs in Summer Camp this year on days we don’t need care just because they love it so much. The staff are always so kind and communicative and we can travel easier knowing our animals are safe with people that love them and will care for them well. Our dogs were older by the time we started them at Perfect Pooch but we will definitely use them for training, as well, in the future!
My 5 month old puppy (Shihpoo) got groomed here and they did a fabulous job! The staff was wonderful, friendly and accommodating. They understood that it was not only my pup’s first time, but also mine & did everything in their power to make sure both my pup and I were comfortable. The grooming job itself is great and I sincerely appreciate the time and effort spent on him as opposed to just scalping him (which I’ve seen a lot of groomers do). I will certainly bringing my pup back!
Been coming here for almost 10 years. Got our dog trained here when she was a puppy. Have boarded and done daycare. Also get grooming services with Sam who is awesome at perfecting our airedales hair style! People are so friendly. Highly recommend.
It was our first time going for a grooming session and Perfect Pooch was AMAZING from the start. We have a 1 year old pup we adopted with anxiety. Perfect Pooch’s staff was beyond patient, informative and welcoming. Our pup had a successful visit and was fully groomed without medication. We will be back for grooming and trying out the other services. We will also be telling everyone to go visit Perfect Pooch! Erin our pup’s groomer was FABULOUS!!! Highly recommended her ☺️
Everyone seemed nice and that they enjoyed their job. The only constructive criticism I would give is that I don’t like that I couldn’t see the facility. They said after covid they didn’t let people in, but if they offer face masks and hand sanitizer I don’t know why that would be a huge problem. I’m leaving my baby in their hands. It even says in the contract if something were to happen to Nala my dog they wouldn’t be liable. I really don’t like that. I really wanted to be able to see where Nala would be staying as I’m going to need to board her. I know there’s tours available online, however, I wanted to be able to see the facility in person. Other than that, staff was very accommodating. I appreciated the puppy report card and feedback I received after I picked her up. And Nala came back nice and tired so mission accomplished.
