Loving, active & responsible care for your home & pets!
Kelly and Miguel took such good care of Thunder and our house and it made our vacation an absolute joy! We communicated via FaceTime and in person prior to the sit. They are delightful people and we have made new friends😄. This was my first time using zeewoi and it was a great experience. They sent me pictures and updates about Thunder throughout the stay and our house was left immaculate. Thank you so very much for your TLC and our new friendship!

THIS DREAM TEAM MAY BE YOUR BEST HOME, ANIMAL, & COMMUNITY CARE TAKERS! READ ON!
If you’re lucky enough to have Erik and Madison want to housesit for you, don’t think about it twice! They’re the most thoughtful, caring, kind, communicative house sitters you could have and all around wonderful human beings. This was their second time looking after our dogs (and now beta fish too!) and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you thank you thank you Madison and Erik! We hope we get to see you again in Seattle or Spain!

Let us spoil your pooch!
Lynn and Jim were absolutely incredible!!! If you get the chance to have them stay with your fur-babies, jump at the opportunity! They were excellent at communicating right from the start and sent such wonderful pictures & updates throughout their entire stay. They cared for our two pups so well, giving them all the love, attention and exercise they could ask for :) I love that they included them on their dog-friendly adventures, and know that our pups were having just as much fun (if not more 😁) with them as we were on our trip. Our home was spotless when we arrived back. They took excellent care of everything 😊 We are so grateful for Lynn and Jim, and would love to have them here again if they're ever back in WI. Thank you again, Lynn and Jim!!!

I WILL CARE FOR YOUR PET AS IF THEY WERE MY OWN!
Another great sit with Linda. She even helped us with training Hazel to ignore the dogs next door. Highly recommend Linda—she is great with both the dog and chickens, left the house beautiful, and was perfectly communicative. Hazel adores her!

Jessie and Chris are wonderful, interesting people, and took great care of our princess Shanti and our home. Communication before and during was spot-on. The pics of Shanti were terrific! We will gladly invite them for future sits as opportunities arise.

Caring Companionship for your Beloved Pets and Attentive Presence for Your Home.
Mary was a joy to work with from the start- great communicator & very organized. She developed a good rapport with our grumpy old cat and sent the sweetest updates with photos. It really put us at ease that Sandy was well cared for and not missing us too much! Mary was also a courteous house guest and took good care of our plants and cleaned up beautifully. We will definitely invite Mary to come sit for us again!

A “young” retired couple who will love your pets and home while you travel.
Cannot say enough about Avis and David. Avis sent daily updates and adorable pictures of the dogs all together. Communication was excellent and my home was left in pristine condition. The dogs were sad to see them leave. I hope we are able to coordinate another sit in the future and would highly recommend them. Thanks again for your excellent care.

Responsible, young professional.
Wesley was our very first exposure to zeewoi and he certainly did not disappoint! What a great experience. We felt safe being gone for almost 20 days while our Leo was in excellent hands. Wesley was excellent at communicating, sending photos of Leo and even describing some of their activities, which made our vacation that much better. He also shared with us that he was enjoying the town and our restaurants which made us happy to know he was doing well himself. Wesley, not only kept Leo happy and well exercised (our mail man said they walked as much as he does every day!) but he also kept our plants alive and kept the house spotless. He even went as far as washing his linens and remaking his room! Definitely a star pet sitter, and I certainly hope he will consider staying with Leo again.

Experienced, responsible, animal lover ready to care for your pets and home!
Carla is dependable, very pleasant and great with our 2 dogs. The house, especially kitchen, was not as clean as we left it.
We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!
Abby was truly the best pet sitter we've ever had. We were never concerned or worried about the care of our pups and home. All the neighbors have told me that the dogs looked happy on the many walks. She sent videos of photos about every other day. We hope that Abby will stay in our home next summer as well. Abby is very highly recommended by our whole family, including the dogs!!!
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
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!
Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month. I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did. Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why. Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her. I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love. Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her). She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants. We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup. Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet. Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs. I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁
I enjoyed meeting Samara. Sosha arrived after I left so we only communicated in writing. Samara is a sweet, considerate pet sitter. She brought her cat, who posed no difficulties to my pets. Samara was in good communication with me during her stay. She used my car without incident. My home was left much cleaner than upon her arrival. Samara proved to be an honest and responsible pet sitter and I would open my home to her at any time in the future.
Angie and her husband Joe were a great fit for our house and pet sitting needs! They kept in communication with us before our vacation started, and were able to arrive a little early so we could walk them through how various systems worked and where controls were located. Our dog bonded with Angie very quickly and I think he was hoping she would stay after we returned home :) We got regular updates and pet photos while we were traveling. Although we were out of cell phone range for several days, we never had a doubt that things at home would be just fine while they were there! They were also very flexible and understanding. Due to our flight schedule we arrived home in the middle of the night. Angie was able to feed and walk our dog, clean up and leave in the morning without waking us up! The house was left clean, the garden was thriving and our pup was happy. We are happy, and would be happy to have them back again as sitters anytime.
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
Neil and Anne have just sat for us for a second time, for a week. They are outstanding sitters in every way. Always punctual with communication and arrival. They both have responsible jobs and this is evident as they are both very organised. They care very much about the animals they look after. We were regularly sent updates, pictures and video clips of them, which is great to see when you are away. When we came home we were greeted by happy pets and an immaculately tidy house. We cannot recommend Neil and Anne enough. As far as we are concerned they are perfect housesitters! …...Hopefully they will come back and sit again soon!

My worst nightmare !!!!! Stay Far Away from this place !!!! Danger ! My father was passing away so I needed to board my beloved dog for a week . Within 2 days he was attacked, mauled , eviscerated and killed by the other dogs . Negligent . Inexcusable . At my father’s deathbed I received a call from Onion River Animal Hospital that my Beau had passed . No word at all from Sam !!!!!!!😡😡🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😡😡😡😡 this was 10 years ago !!! I can’t believe she’s still scamming people. Stay away !
I originally wrote this in 2017. In 2023 I adopted a pup from Sam that she rescued from an abusive situation. She's amazing. Original review from 2017: When I was in the hospital for nearly 4 months my pups Trista and Scooby stayed with Sam and Random Rescue. I was in the hospital with my dying mother when I too was admitted to the hospital. Two days after I was admitted my mother passed away. I was overwhelmed emotionally and physically, mourning the loss of my mother and dealing with my health issues. Sam stepped in without hesitation, taking in my pups without knowing how long they'd be in her care and without knowing if I'd even be able to compensate her and the rescue. This is a testament to what kind of person Sam and everyone at Random Rescue is. The care they received, and the peace of mind that gave me, made it so much easier to concentrate on getting healthy and recovering. Trista and Scooby are my family, knowing that they were being taken care of was incredibly important in my recovery. Being able to check in on them, having a friend or family member bring them to the hospital to visit, and seeing pictures and videos of them on the Facebook page was so great. As if all of that wasn't enough, when they finally came home I noticed that Scooby especially was calmer than he had been before going to Random Rescue. Both had been well behaved, and were potty trained, but Scooby had pretty severe anxiety. Things like thunderstorms and fireworks would cause him to pant and whimper. He'd run away from beeps, like the sound the microwave makes when you touch the buttons or when it's done. Ever since he has been home though he has snoozed through several thunderstorms and 4th of July fireworks, which both always scared him, and no longer runs from noises like the microwave or beeps on my phone. I don't know what kind of sorcery they practice at Random Rescue but not seeing my buddy have panic attacks is pretty great! From the bottom of my heart, thank you to Sam and Random Rescue for coming to our aid during a really dark, difficult time in life. I couldn't recommend them enough if you need to have your pup (s) boarded. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Sam and her knowledge of breeds and temperament is the best. She has helped so many dog and educates about the good, bad and the ugly. I have adopted four animals from her. Two canines and two felines. All amazing furr babies❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Adopted Ollie from Sam back in Jan 2024. Her and her family treated us well and accommodate meet ups with us to see Ollie mulitple times. He has been amazing. Thank you Sam.
I recommend Sam and her Random Rescue organization without any hesitation. She helped me find a home for my beloved dog, without any judgment, and with so much compassion and understanding. She found an ideal home for my dog within just a couple of days. She treated my dog with as much love and care, as if it was her own beloved dog. She is incredibly devoted to taking care of these animals. She understands dogs and their individual needs in a way that most people do not. I noticed that the only reviews that included complaints were referring to her not returning their calls or emails ( regarding wanting to adopt)as quickly as they would like. If they understood how demanding her responsibilities are, and how devoted she is to taking care of the animals that she has under her care, they would better understand. There is only so much someone can do when they have a limited budget and cannot hire staff. And I praised her for making the priority taking care of the animals that she has.
Our 14yo and 1yo dogs just finished a week of boarding. They came back happy and tired. They were. Leary lovingly cared for. We will definitely use Samantha's boarding again.
Sam and her family are truly wonderful and kind people, and my dog had a fantastic time being boarded there. Definitely a great place to board your pup and not have to worry about them while you are gone. Thanks again for letting Hank live in luxury while I was in the woods!
Was wanting to adopt a rescue , they kept me waiting to talk to someone. Finally got a call that a volunteer did from Canada. She was great. Did my interview references were checked, landlord said yes , so I'm waiting again another 2 weeks get a message last night sorry cant adopt to you right now good luck. That cam from Sam P. Not happy and crushed
Horrid Cruel Scammer Dog broker Living on acreage in a rural area off the backs of dogs Greedy Deranged Evil Always physically go to where the pups are kept, see their housing conditions inside and out; if this is refused run and report to others via review / word of mouth So many bad actors in this field
Random Rescue is our go to rescue! They do an amazing job getting to know their animals, take excellent care of them, and are diligent about trying to make the best match possible for them. We've adopted from them several times and send everyone in search of a rescue their way!
Bess does an awesome job taking care of our yellow lab, Sam, when we are away. Her boys assist her in some of the duties and it is a family business full of family love for the four-legged creatures. If you are considering using her services stop thinking and just call her.
BEST BEST BEST Doggie daycare EVER! My dog is treated like family!
Bess was amazing! This was definitely the right place to leave our little 12 year old yorkshire terrier for a week. Bess treated rosie like she was part of her family. She also sent us pictures every day too, which we loved! Both me and my wife highly recommended using Riverbend Dog Daycare!
Bess is an amazing dogsitter! Our dog loves going to her house! She gets excited when we pull in the drive, a far cry from her previous wimpering because she knew she would be "left behind." A beautiful setting, with a large safely-fenced backyard, the dogs are incorporated into the family home and Bess sends pictures and videos to ease my doggie-mom heart while I am gone. I love the homespun feel of this place. There are no cages, no add ons for extras and plenty of creature comforts for your beloved pup!
Loves my dog, very easy to work with, great communication. Thank heavens I found this dog daycare.
Great place! My dog LOVES it here! She is worn out when we pick her up
Cute dog lady.
Bess is the best!
