Animal loving wanderlust.
Emily was the best dog and house sitter. She was easy to communicate with and sent the cutest photos and videos of our dog during her stay. She was also incredibly respfectful of my home and I highly recommend her for housesitting!

Becky is simply the best! This was her second time at our home, Egret Cove. This sit, Becky took care of two of our dogs, Hannah and Trixie and our two cats, Cali and Baby Kitty. All of them love Becky and are so relaxed around her. It had been a year since her first sit, but all four were happy to be left in her care. Baby Kitty and Becky have a special bond and she loves Becky so much. From the time that Becky got to our Home until the time that she left, all of our furry family members were happy and content. Becky left the house with everything clean and in its place. Becky is not only a delight for the animals to visit with, but us too. With her delightful personality and easy going outlook we so enjoyed our visit with Becky prior to leaving for two weeks. Becky sent us wonderful photos of the fur family in their daily routines as well as written updates, which always are so reassuring to those that are away from their furry family members. Although we met on zeewoi only last year, Becky is not only a pet sitter for us but a wonderful friend. She will always have a special place in our hearts and is welcome back to sit or visit! 5 stars just seems much too small for a sitter like Becky, so we are personally giving her 10 stars and 100 hearts for being the best sitter and such a lovely person. Until next time Becky!

4 Solid Reasons We are the House and Pet Sitting Couple for You
They asked all the right questions beforehand and were prompt for their interview visit and the beginning of their sit. Myscha sent lots of fun photos of a relaxed Grace and they left the house as clean, if not cleaner than when they arrived. Would definitely have them again.

Easy peasy 5 stars across the board!! Super easy to communicate with, suuuper clean and tidy, thoughtful, organized and easy going. Bri had the magic touch (and carrots) with my bun bun and she was so content with the care and love she was getting from Bri that she couldn’t have cared less that I came home 😂 I was really happy to have Bri stay with me the night before and after my trip, so I can also confidently say she’s great company, a lovely human, and welcome back any time 🙂. Thank you again Bri!!

Experienced petsitting couple from western NC
We were so happy that Debra & Stewart applied for this 18 day long sit. They came early enough that we could spend some time showing them around and getting them acquainted with the house and kitties. Debra & Stewart were able to set up their business and work from our home so they were virtually constant companions for our fur babies, who looked happy and healthy when we returned! We had a significant storm while we were gone and lost power for several hours and Debra & Stewart took it in stride. They even washed the sheets and remade the bed before they left!

Heart-centered, trustworthy and attentive healer eager to care for your beloveds
Carol did a great job! She was responsible for keeping our cat company and also watering our plants. There was actually a pest control issue while we were gone and she was calm and proactive in helping us get it resolved. She left the house very clean and orderly. We would definitely recommend her!

I will love & care for them like you do…
I wish I could leave 10 stars! This is Lindsey and Josh's 2nd time pet sitting for us. Everything was beyond perfect. Communication leading up, her arrival the day before, their love and care for the entire pack of animals we have, the spotless house when we arrived home, all the photos and updates. It's an honor having them in our home and we would welcome them back every time if we could!

Mature, Reliable, Nurturing Lover of Animals. Peace of mind for you & your pets.
Katherine did a great job! She arrived the prior night on time to ensure everything was ready and to hear any new information she needed to be aware of. She is very attentive, and the pets loved her. She sent me updates, to include photos of the pets. She also cleaned the bed sheets and left the house clean. Thanks Katherine!

Experienced, reliable sitter who loves the comfort of home & adventure of travel
Jobie and Aby area as fun couple who did a great job from start to end. As veteran sitters, they exhibited full confidence in and understanding of everything I wanted and asked. They immediately developed a good relationship with my pets, and it was an immediate comfort to know they truly cared about the animals. They also took good care of the house, and left it clean and tidy! Recommended!

Flexible retiree looking to help out where I can.
This was Susana's first sit for me and Deegan. Deegan seemed to get very comfortable with her right away. She kept in touch with me and sent some pics. The house was spotless and all linens washed and bed madeup. She lives close by and I hope she will sit again for Deegan.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
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.
Once again Dede was the most perfect pup and house sitter you could ever hope to have the pleasure of using. She leaves our home cleaner than we left it and our pups so happy that they continue to search for her after she leaves. Dede handled an emergency situation with a false CO2 alarm which resulted in a visit from the fire department perfectly and we were so grateful! I feel completely comfortable with her in our home and know she is giving our 2 dogs the very best care. Thank you Dede - you truly are the best!
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
Cindy is an absolutely fantastic sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her care for our dog and our home whilst we went on our family holiday. Her communication before and throughout our sit was fantastic, and she even took our dog to the vet when he needed an unexpected checkup. She took great care of him and sent daily updates including videos and photos of their time together. We could tell that he felt very relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Cindy - it is a real godsend to have someone so kind and caring to take care of your pets and home and we would be delighted to have Cindy back again in future.
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
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.
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.

We always use Animal Farm to take care of our dog while we are away. Sarah (the owner) is so friendly and caring for Ginger. We absolutely love her. Each dog has their own exercise area and if it gets cold the inside is heated. We've used Animal Farm for several years now, and we've always had a wonderful experience. We highly recommend!
She does a fantastic job with the animals, The only thing I would recommend is to bring a nice warm bed or a blanket for your animals to sleep on as all she has is a concrete floor. Aside from that, we've left our dogs with her twice now and it's been a great experience both times. She has fair pricing and she does make sure that all of the animals are fully up to date on their shots before accepting them.
They did an amazing job with my dog. Made sure they knew what to do and also gave me their card in case I wanted to call and check on her.
They took very good care of our dog the two separate times we went on a week vacation. They would play with him, including his favorite game of Chase the water from a water hose. Each time they were very friendly and it was reasonably priced.
Wonderful people that took such good care of our babies. So patient with us as we had to change our reservation three times due to hurricane Florence. It is so clean I don’t know how they do it.
I have taken my dogs there for years now and they have always been well taken care of. Super nice and friendly staff that genuinely care for the pets...definitely recommend!!!
Boarded my 2 dogs here for years they are awesome
Have left our dog with them a couple of times and they have done a great job, she was well taken care of.
Totally recommend for someone needing to board their fur baby. I took my cats here while I visited family out of town. It was clean and the staff was friendly.
Boarded my dog for the first time. She was well taken care of. Will definitely go back again
Wow! Quality, willing to customize, terrific customer service, top notch care in installation, can't say enough good about MTCK. I Love my 2-hole customized slide-in! And I love the Hucks!

Friendly staff.
My healthy yorkie was boarded at this place on May 13, 2023. She left there in May 19 dead. You can believe the lies and the owners complete lack of accountability for her actions but the truth is the truth. She was given strict instructions regarding Charli’s diet and she failed to keep her safe from foods that caused her to get sick and ultimately die. She downplayed her condition and did not notify me when her condition became life threatening. She proceeded to lie and cover up evidence immediately afterwards. She bathed our dead dog to remove evidence she was left to die alone in her own vomit and diarrhea. She said she had video evidence she was fine all night but failed to produce it. Our dog died in her care. Multiple people shared horror stories AFTER Charli died. I’m not willing to be quiet and let it happen to someone else. At least people can make an informed decision. I got ONE phone call saying she had thrown up and had diarrhea. Based on the answers I got to my multiple questions, it was decided we’d wait a little bit and see if it continued. I was told she’d be there with her for SIX MORE HOURS and also that she’d be monitored via camera all night. I asked for her to please call me back if it didn’t stop or if her condition worsened. She assured me she would. Next call I got was at 9:45 the next morning saying she was dead. It absolutely says everything anyone would need to know about this owner’s character for her to act as if she offered multiple times to take Charli to the vet. She said twice..”I can take her to the vet if you want me to”… but when I asked how she was acting…you know…basically tell me what you’re seeing because some diarrhea and vomiting wasn’t unusual when she ate something she wasn’t supposed to…and she assured me she was fine and up walking around. The truth is…Gods honest truth…if she’d have said “she needs to go to the vet” I’d have said “take her immediately”. For reasons only known to her and God, she made me feel Charli was just experiencing a little tummy upset and the next thing I knew she was gone. When I said “you let her die” she said “I did everything I needed to do”. What that meant to me was … she called me and fulfilled her legal obligation even though she never expressed any sense of urgency AT ALL and assured me she’d call if Charli got worse. Charli did get worse and she never called me back. Again, the lies further solidify my feelings about her lack of integrity and morality. As for the court case … The case was supposed to be a small claims case and ended up being an actual “trial” situation and we were blindsided. We had not hired an attorney because we were under the impression there were no attorneys involved in small claims. My boyfriend filed the claim so he was forced to be the “attorney” and that left me as the only witness. We had no questions prepared..only had our story to tell and that was not allowed. I even asked could I please tell my story and was told no…I could only answer basically yes no questions. Every question was either objected to or every answer I gave was stricken from the record because her attorney objected. We were railroaded and ZERO evidence was able to be presented. It was over in 5 minutes basically because he dismissed the case. The judge said, in his conclusion, “I don’t even have any evidence that the defendant was told about the dogs diet restrictions”. The defendant admitted in her criminal trial that she was told and that she did allow her to get ahold of treats she wasn’t supposed to have. Insane. The judge was also one we hadn’t seen the prior 3 times. At the conclusion of her criminal trial that judge told us he would see us back for the civil case and to remember the burden of proof was a lot less in the civil case than the criminal. He asked questions and he knew the evidence. When we showed up, it was a totally different judge and handled in a totally different manner. There was no not guilty verdict after hearing the evidence. It was dismissed because we were unable to present a shred of our evidence.
We leave our babies with no one but Miss Laura and they absolutely love her! Her house is large with a play yard and she truly loves every dog she keeps. We once left our oldest dog with a vet and she lost 17 lbs and was never let out, as well as “outdoor play passes” had to be purchased separately. Since then we have added a new baby to our family and no one keeps them but Miss Laura. They are always so excited to go there and we have zero worries knowing that they are in excellent, loving hands. ❤️
Laura took such wonderful care of our sweet Pete so many times during his golden years. He had separation anxiety and hated the traditional cage-run kennel. But he loved it at Laura’s because he was free to go in and out as he needed, always surrounded by other doggies and Laura, who takes the time to get to know and love all dogs in her care. She was so good with our elderly dog who had many health issues. It was such a comfort to be able to leave him there. We only wish we’d found Paws and Tails earlier!
I have had nothing but positive experiences with Laura. We have used her for daycare, and multi-day stays. Our dog Chewie loves going there. As soon as we pull up into the parking area, he wants to get out of the car asap and can't wait to get in and play with the other dogs. We chose Paws & Tails because it is like a dog park, except better since Laura or her husband are watching them and interacting with them during the day. We couldn't find any place like Paws & Tails in the area.
My Standard poodle goes there everyday. She is great with the dogs. My dog loves her very much. It’s a very clean, kept up place. He’s always well hydrated. I would highly recommend. Laura is awesome
Our Red Heeler, Chewie, has very happily stayed with Laura at Paws and Tails Hotel for daycare as well as overnight stays during our trips out of town. We are thrilled to have this unique service available to us! Other pet care businesses we checked into offer only kennels where dogs are kept separate in concrete runs with fencing. Paws and Tails Hotel has indoor and outdoor areas where friendly dogs may run and play together. Our Chewie loves this set up and we prefer it as well. Laura keeps her building and grounds very clean and our pup is always treated very well. We drive from Damascus, VA to use Laura's services. She is kind, professional and best of all, she loves dogs. It shows in the loving care she offers to her clients and their human parents. As soon as we arrive in the neighborhood of Paws and Tails, Chewie sits up and gets excited. When we pull into the parking area, he cannot wait to get out of our truck and get inside to see Laura and play with his friends. We feel that is a very high compliment to Laura!
I left my Yorkie at Paws & Tails while I went on vacation in July and I was very impressed with the facility and with the owner. She took really good care of my sweet Jadirah. She keeps it so clean and it smelled so clean. Definitely will be bring her back next time I need her.
Thank you so much, Laura for taking such good care of our sweet Ruby! We are moving to the area and needed a new place to board our 9 year old dachshund when we are out of town. I went by first to look at the facility and meet Laura and was so impressed with how clean everything is and Laura’s kindness. Ruby was taken care of exceptionally well while we were out of town. Laura was so sweet to send me pictures everyday of Ruby playing and getting snuggled throughout the day and letting me know she was doing great! Thank you again, Laura! We will see you again soon!
I do not know the owner, or the dog parents of the dead dog, but in all fairness, if I was asked, do you want me to take the dog to the vet, I would have said "Yes". Urgency in one's voice is subjective, and it is up to you as a dog mom to make those judgement calls. Sounds like this could have happened anywhere you left him. An older dog with health problems, why not take with you? I do, there are pet friendly hotels everywhere you go. I even take my two dogs to beach and board at K-9 Cabana, at see them daily there. I must give rating to post, but I am planning to try but have not yet tried this facility.
Had a GREAT experience there. The owner is clearly a huge dog lover. They were running freely around and she had excellent control over them. The place is clean and my dog May was very happy and healthy when I picked her back up. This will definitely always be my spot for keeping my dog when I go on vacation. The prices were good. They may be a little more than other places but I will gladly pay when i know that my dog will get excellent care. Can’t put a price on peace of mind! I was able to fully enjoy my vacation and not have to worry about her. I will add that when I’ve boarded my dog before in other places, she was always mad at me when I picked her up. That wasn’t the case this time at all- she was happy and bouncy and didn’t even want to leave! I’ll gladly trust this place with my pets from now on!!
