Amanda
Academia, Pennsylvania
Providing cuddles and care to pets since 1984
Amanda was great! She was timely, took great care of the pets, and kept us updated. We had a flight delay coming home and she stayed a little later to make sure the pets weren't alone too long before we got home, which we appreciated. Our house was neat and clean and the pets were happy! Would recommend.
Cathy
Academia, Pennsylvania
Retired couple delighted to take excellent care of your pets and home.
Cathy and Scott were fabulous sitters! They definitely rate far more than a 5. From the very first picture of my pups to the last I could see how caring and loving they were with my dogs. When my husband and I arrived home the house was spotless, all linens and towels washed, bed made and the best part was happy dogs! We even had dinner waiting for us in the fridge and muffins on the counter. I could not ask for better dog and house sitters than Cathy and Scott. Count yourself lucky if you can have them sit for your pets. I hope in the future that I can entice them to come back. Thanks for everything!!

We will Love Your Pets as Our Own
Patty and Luis were excellent sitters. Our girls Nebula and Arte were in great spirits and shape when we returned home to AK. They communicated with us daily updates on the girls and house while we were away. They left the house sparkling clean. We were able to coordinate an airport vehicle drop off as we got back the same day that they left. That worked out great, vehicle was in exact condition and really worked in our favor by not having to take a cab. Thoughtful, friendly and kind; Patty and Luis are welcome back anytime. We sooo appreciate the level of care and respect they gave our girls, home and truck!

The Psych and The Sailor
It is very hard to not have favorite house sitters when there are so many amazing people on this site! I cannot resist putting John and Lizzie right at the TOP! They were across the board awesome. Perfect communication. Perfect Care.
Kevin
Academia, Pennsylvania
Remote worker seeking new adventures, acquaintances (2 and 4 legged)
Kevin was sensational. Great with pets, compulsively clean and tidy, even brought all his needs with him, left the house more beautiful than before. He is smart, friendly, and walked the dog a lot more than he gets usually. I trust him completely and hope he comes again.
Beirne
Academia, Pennsylvania
Experienced dog rescuer and foster
Beirne is a very clearly a dog person. My pups took to her in less than a minute of meeting. It was clear that Beirne has been enjoying her travels with the added bonus of being able to sit for other people’s pets. We spent a day together to show the ropes, walks and local amenities before we left. We had daily pupdates with photos and videos. Our pups looked loved and safe in their own home. Our home was very clean and tidy when we got back and we would highly recommend you accept Beirne’s offer for future sits.
Bryan
Academia, Pennsylvania
Simple traveling man.
Bryan was attentive, kind, and took excellent care of my two cats. He got to know the cats, understood their personalities, and was friends with them. He kept them on their routine with meals, time outside, and always made sure they were safe inside by dusk. Bryan sent regular photos and updates on his own initiative. They were informative and always appreciated. He responded to my texts quickly and always kept his word. I returned to the house exactly as I left it. Everything was clean, organized, and tidy. He had taken the time empty the trash, wash the sheets, remove extra food from the fridge, and vacuum the floors. If you have the opportunity to have Bryan sit your pets, do so. Your pets will thank you.
Miranda
Academia, Pennsylvania
Clean, Cuddly, & Communicative Caretakers!
Miranda and Kyle did a nice job sitting our senior cat. He was a bit anxious due to our absence, and there was a thunderstorm that scared him. They were kind and attentive, comforting him and keeping us posted. He had all his meds and was definitely happy for the loving company. Miranda was very communicative and reliable. We would invite them to sit again!
Monica
Academia, Pennsylvania
Experienced, responsible, non-smoking, & ready to care for ur pets & ur home!
We were fortunate enough to meet with Monica before we left for our vacation. We showed here around and introduced her to our cats. She bonded so well will all of them! She even had little Sassy on her shoulders which Sassy had never done with either me or my husband! She cared for our 3 cats and watered the plants. She sent updates and photos of the cats. It snowed about 7 inches or so and she shovel the entire driveway! Would I ask her to sit again? YES!
Reviews from Pet Owners
Jan
Abi and David were FABULOUS pet sitters during our 5-day trip. They were devoted and fun dog walkers, park-goers and ball throwers. They communicated well and sent pictures. And when we got home, the house looked great, and the dogs looked calm. We would gladly have them. Sit for us again and highly recommend them.
Marlynn
Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.
Jennifer
Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
Katrina
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
Sneha
Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.
Nancy
Not only did our pets enjoy meeting Kelly and Christopher, my husband and I enjoyed meeting them as well! They are personable and kind, organized and communicative, and most of all excellent pet sitters.
Kelly and Chris are attentive housesitters. They went out of their way to connect with our dogs, especially Smitty, our rescue. The dogs were walked, brushed, and played with throughout the weeklong sit. They sent pics of how our fur babies were doing and truly seemed to enjoy their time with them. The peace of mind that comes with great house sitters who care for your precious pups and the home you love is priceless. Thank you once again, Kelly and Christopher! We hope to see you again!
Claudine
We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

Andrea was the perfect sitter for our older Italian Greyhound and our shy cat. She followed every request to a “t”, and helped us to feel comfortable and care free for a long zeewoi. The communication of photos and videos were a warm reminder of how well they had been adjusting to our absence. Andrea showed care and consistent compassion for Darcy and Hammy. She seemed to enjoy them and our home as much as us! We returned to an absolutely spotless home, without anything left undone. She thought of everything related to us and our pets, so we could have a seamless late evening return. We highly recommend Andrea for any zeewoi, as she is a jewel. Anyone looking for a “perfect” sitter would be lucky to have Andrea as a trustworthy, considerate and kind person to care for their pets and home.
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Wanda
What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs!
You can truly feel their love for animals.
Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson!
Our home was perfect when we got home. They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen.
We highly recommend this couple!
