Timothy
Pownal, Maine
Dependable, trustworthy, empathetic, caring.
Tim was an excellent sitter from start to finish. He was kind, organized, and followed through on all home tasks. The house was very clean on my return, and my plants were thriving. I'd love to have him back and anyone would be lucky to have him! Thanks Tim!
Caitlin
Pownal, Maine
Caring, Loving Travel Couple
Caitlin and Lawrence were great! They were able to come over the day before we left and we had dinner together and we were able to get to know them even more and show them everything they needed to know about Clara and our home. They sent us lovely pictures of Clara enjoying her time while we were away. When we got back the house was super clean and they left us a nice plant to start our garden with this summer. We would definitely have them in our home again.
Samantha
Pownal, 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.
Yvonne
Pownal, Maine
Experienced pet lover available for long term sits while you're away.
Yvonne was just great. She was wonderful with the dogs, and the house was immaculate when I returned. I hope that she will come again.
Clara
Pownal, Maine
Reliable, Remote-Working, Pet-loving Couple with house & pet sitting experience
Clara and Graham were amazing sitters! We were lucky to have them and would wholeheartedly recommend them. They provided frequent updates during their stay and were tidy and respectful of our home. Couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you guys!
MICHELLE
Pownal, Maine
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.
Barbara
Pownal, Maine
I am a caring, responsible and active older woman.
Barbara was an excellent house and cat sitter. Communication with her from the word go was straightforward, and easy and it was clear that she would be completely self sufficient and confident in managing the travelling to the island, and caring for Stan and the house. She stayed in touch throughout her stay and I felt calm and confident that all was well with my beloved cat and home, and even updated me on the welfare of some of the street cats that I feed. If Barbara applies for a sit for you, then you can have every confidence that she is more than 100% reliable and will do an excellent job!
Rosemary
Pownal, Maine
Lifelong Animal Lover Excited to Take Care of Your Furry Family Members
This was my first time with zeewoi and I couldn't be happier. Rosemary was great! We talked on FaceTime and then met in person prior to her stay which made me very comfortable leaving my boys. Everyday I received photos and an update on the crazy group ( she had 2 young dogs to deal with). When I arrived home the dogs were happy, the house looked great, the bed was made with clean linens and all towels washed. Wow, I couldn't ask for more. I only hope I can entice Rosemary to come back to Waynesboro in the future. Thanks again!!!
Kemble
Pownal, Maine
Mature, Mostly-Retired, Solo Male Professional on Global Sabbatical
Kemble was very responsive, communicative, and friendly! He left the house clean and tidy and even left some treats for us from the farmers market.
Ciara
Pownal, Maine
Experienced International and Domestic Traveler who loves animals!
This was our second time having Ciara at our home with Ellie. We had such a great experience we wanted to bring her back. My favorite things about Ciara as a sitter is her quality care of Ellie, daily communication, and how self sufficient she is. She walked our dog almost daily and sent photos updating us on Ellie's activities each day. Ellie had a little bit of a health scare and Ciara stayed right on top of everything + maintained awesome communication throughout. We live on an island and if you have, you know island living isn't always the easiest. Ciara was comfortable with our home's quirks and didn't need hand holding during her stay. Would absolutely have her back in the future.
Reviews from Dog Owners

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!
Jeff
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.
Abby
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
Annaliese
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Mia
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
Jacqueline
The best house and dog sitters you could ever ask for! They love and take care of our dogs like we do and do the same with our home. Thank you so much Ken and Jane! You are very much appreciated and loved by us, Jules and Lexi ❤️😇🐶
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!

Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Linda
Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.
Teona
Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used. My husky LOVES her. Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly. She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia. She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

What a great place to take a dog!! Using only positive reinforcement, Jenny has helped me tremendously in training my new, very nervous rescue dog. Classes at Jenny's are very small -- sometimes one-on-one. They build my dog's confidence through fun games that teach good behaviors and train the dog out of bad ones. Jenny explains everything, and always has a positive, fun way to teach new things and cure problem behaviors. Jenny's farm is full of safe play spaces and learning opportunities, and my dog even learned some tricks on the full size agility training course.
We're taking our puppy and new 12 yr old rescue to classes and it's the perfect training facility. We don't have a fenced yard so it's also fabulous to be able to bring the dogs over for free runs when no one else is there. Jenny knows dogs and is super nice as well. Highly recommend.
Working with Jenny at Whole Dog Camp has been an amazing help as we welcomed a new rescue into our home. Her farm and all its big, fenced in spaces is a great place to take our pup for a free run, the multiple fenced in spaces give him space to participate in group classes in his own space while he gets used to other dogs, and Jenny has been available in classes, for private sessions, and when issues arise, to help us help him. I cannot recommend her enough.
Took my new dog for her first class at Whole Dog Camp last night. It was such a perfect environment for her to practice and learn! Jenny is a great trainer and the other dogs in class were at various levels, with different strengths and challenges, so we could all learn from each other. Jenny also clearly "gets" the dogs and was able to provide great insights on the dogs' behaviors throughout the class. The facility is wonderful as well, and provides various areas to train, play, socialize, etc for different dogs and/or classes. We will be back again!
Jenny has been a tremendous help, teaching us how to effectively and humanely deal with our very large, slightly skittish 3 year-old standard poodle. In a few short months of participating in dog camp we have virtually eliminated lunging on the leash, made crate time a happy experience, and improved socialization skills. And that’s just the dog! She has also helped us (the humans) understand doggie motivations and created renewed confidence in our ability to deal w the challenges that inevitably arise in raising a dog. Jenny is equally kind to and effective with dogs and their owners. Her non-punitive approach benefits everyone in her program, human and canine! She is always eager to hear about and help solve problems. There is no question she cares deeply about her work. Finally, Whole Dog Camp sits in a gorgeous rural setting with several large training enclosures and a wide variety of equipment. The spaciousness is great for training and a lovely spot to spend time. Thank you, Jenny, for all you do!
What a wonderful experience!!!! My husband and I had the pleasure of staying and working with Jenny, as she helped us with training for our dog Luca, who is a rescue. Jenny is knowledgeable, professional, and so incredibly precise with training suggestions. For us it was great to help make sure Luca is the best he can be. Jenny is helping us achieve this, and we will be back. We highly recommend!!!
Jenny is a knowledgeable, fun, caring trainer with tons of experience. The facility is amazing, safe, big and beyond beautiful with gardens full of flowers and vegetables everywhere. You can learn agility, obedience, rally all kinds of things. My girl Onyx and I loved the summer session.
Jenny is so good and helpful with any kind of dog behavior issue. And she really likes helping people and their dogs.
Thanks Emilie!
Thanks Ursula!
