MaryAnn
Garfield, Michigan
Mature Responsible Female Sitter
MaryAnn is definitely a pet and house sitter you can trust to be there for you and your pet. We video chatted with her before her sit and felt very comfortable with not having to meet her in person before we headed on our travels. It was obvious she fell in love with our cat Stella enjoying all the cuddles especially at the end of the day. MaryAnn sent photos of our cat everyday and texted right away if there were any concerns. She left our home clean and cozy just as we left it. We feel so fortunate to have had MaryAnn in our home with our cat and would highly recommend her!

Garfield, Michigan
Active, responsible, retired, ready to take care of your pets and home
Ed and Laura were great pet-/housesitters! They were organized and communicative. We returned home to a spotless house, thriving plants, and a happy cat.
Andrea
Garfield, Michigan
Two travel crossed lovers embarking on a year-long road trip!
This was my first experience with zeewoi and I am sold! Andrea excelled at communicating. We met prior to her sit so we could review the house, the pet and everything involved. She kept in touch with me every day I was gone with photos and texts. She even taught my guy to retrieve, something I was never able to accomplish! On my return my boy was clearly well taken care of, as was my house. I would love to have her stay with us again.

Newly Retired Teacher Couple who love pets, travel, and people!
Sara was incredible! Amazing caretaker for Boomer and so kind and respectful of our home. I hope to use Sara again.
Betsy
Garfield, Michigan
Single woman, 4 children, 7 grandchildren, retired operating room nurse
Not all dog lovers can care for the large breed dogs. You can't just pick them up to fix a problem. And they tend to drool. Betsy was just marvelous with Byron. He likes to get out to walk or ride around in the car. He is a nosy thing. Betsy was able to find his best self. She sent lots of pictures. The house looked the same as we left it. I could not ask for more. We appreciated all she did to allow us to take a vacation without worry.
Randy
Garfield, Michigan
Responsible retired librarians ready to sit for you!
Randy took great care of our two dogs and kitten while we were away!! He was communicative, kind, and kept me in the loop. We came home to happy pets and a clean house. You’d be lucky to have him!
Brittany
Garfield, Michigan
shining my light while loving up on and seeking cuddles from all the fur babies
Brittany was great! I was gone for about a month which is the longest I have been away from my pets. She asked minimal questions and sent me picture updates of the pets throughout my trip which was appreciated. I would certainly welcome her back into my home again to care for my pets.
Elena
Garfield, Michigan
Wandering animal lover!
Elena was incredibly amazing! We are so lucky to have met her, her boyfriend Shaun, and her adorable animals (dog Emmet and two cats). Shaun was equally great! Jade and Oakley received professional and loving care the entire time. I truly think that they are now missing Elena, Shaun, and Emmet. Communication was excellent and we enjoyed the daily updates and photos. We arrived home to a cleaner house than we left it. They went over and beyond with housecleaning. They exceeded our expectations, which were high already after getting to know them the night before our departure. We hope our paths cross again. We highly recommend them to anyone seeking a sit! Don’t pass them up!

Reviews from Pet Owners

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.
Ann
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
Peggy
Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!
Caitlin
This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!
Robert
Melissa did an AWESOME job with our 4 pets! Her personal style and communication via text, video, and pics were stellar and super comforting while we were out of town for 2 weeks. She showed up before the sit to go over instructions for the pet care and was even here when we returned (before she left for her next engagement). You would never know this was her first TH sit. She quickly earned our trust, asked for clarification when needed, and overall is just a GREAT PERSON!! Her kindness showed through in the care of each and every one of our furry babies. She will be a great sitter for others and is looking to travel across and see more of the US while remote working. We have adopted her into our family and she is welcome in our home anytime. Our whole family hopes to see her again-either for a visit and/or for a sit :) Thank you, Thank you, Melissa!!!

Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. Well done Jacob.

Janis is a wonderful person and also an incredible sitter -- we were very, very fortunate that she agreed to care for our beloved pets and rural log home for 3 days. We were confident that everything would be perfect – and it was. We returned to a home as clean and ordered as we had left it, inside and out. All plants were thriving; outdoor hanging baskets were blooming profusely. Most importantly, our beloved dog and 4 cherished cats had obviously been lovingly and attentively cared for. The koi were also active and happy. Janis is a “cat whisperer”. She is especially skilled and patient with shy felines, so we truly appreciated her patience and caring for our sweet Angie (with a semi-feral background). Janis immediately understood that Angie, despite her reclusiveness, craves affection and was able to start to earn her trust even with such limited time. Among Janis’ many gifts: she is a talented photographer and delighted us with frequent updates and photos of our furry children. They are so beautiful that we, with her kind permission, plan to include several in our zeewoi profile. Janis’ communications, reliability, self-sufficiency, and punctuality were exemplary, start to finish. We made a wonderful new friend and have already invited her back to sit again. If you are privileged enough to ever have Janis sit we are certain that you will be as delighted and happy as we are.

Thomas did an amazing job! We were very pleased with how well he was able to care for our 3 active Boston terriers. He was able to handle all 3 on a walk and feed them their special meal everyday. He even ventured out and took them to the beach which is no easy task for 3 excited dogs. Thomas did a great job communicating before and during the stay. We came home to a clean house with bedding washed. We had a handful of other pet sitters through this website and Thomas easily rates at the top of our list. Thank you for taking great care for the dogs and the house.

Judith was one of the most considerate, trustworthy sitters we've ever had. We had to leave in a rush for a family emergency and really didn't have time to prepare the house as we usually do, but Judith took all in stride, leaving the apartment spotless. She sent photos of Baby Boo and Janet on arrival, putting us immediately at ease because it was so obvious the cats were completely comfortable, zero stress, allowing us to relax that they were in such good hands. She sent photos and video every day, which delighted us, confident that they were getting next level care. Judith would take care of anyone's home and pets with as much care as she did at ours, and we highly recommend. Hope she can come back!!
Beth
Jessica was so rad. I wish she could be our go-to sitter for all our travel. Came over for an in-person orientation, took great care of house and pets and seamless communication. Thank you, Jessica!

Jared is excellent! He's watched my dogs a few times and has completely eliminated any worries I have about traveling without them. He is ridiculously fast to respond to texts and the pictures he sends during their stay are nice reassurances that they are happy and doing well. He's got a nice fenced-in yard and his dog Charlie has been playful and kind to my small dogs. It's seriously crazy to me how fast he is to respond to texts. Your dog(s) is/are in great hands with Jared!
Jared was great! His communication was wonderful and flexibility much appreciated. He has a great fenced in yard that I know our dogs enjoyed very much as they are never really on leash. One of our dogs has recently developed severe anxiety while at a kennel and I was worried that Jared might have an issue but he handled everything very well and said she was not stressed at all while with him!
Jared and Charlie were great. We came up to Traverse for a long weekend with our Basset Gus and knew that there would be some places that we wouldn't be able to take him. We didn't want to leave him in a strange place in his crate all by himself. I found TC Tails/Jared's info online and contacted him. He is very responsive and was very accommodating. We only did drop-in for the one day for about 5 hours so we could go to lunch and do some shopping. Jared was very flexible with the times. Gus was very nervous at first but Jared sent me a video of him and Charlie running and playing in the yard. I felt so much better. He had so much fun playing and slept really good when we got back to the cottage. I would absolutely recommend Jared for boarding and definitely would take Gus there again. Thank you again Jared and Charlie!
Absolutely thrilled with my recent dog boarding experience! Jared was fantastic with my golden retriever during the three days he stayed. He provided plenty of love, playtime, and attention, making my pup feel right at home. I couldn't have asked for a better caretaker—highly recommend! Five stars!
If you need pet sitting or dog boarding in Traverse City, TC Tails & Jared is the best! Jared was wonderful on all aspects. We had some interesting travel plans that changed a couple times and Jared was very accommodating from the start. He's very communicative and friendly. Our 2 huskies stayed at his house for 5 days, he has a perfect backyard set-up for dogs, fully fenced in (huskies are escape artists) that was very secure and he seemed to let them find their spots inside as they wanted when it was time to rest. Our dogs are used to finding comfy spots around the house and Jared let them treat his home like it was what they were used to. We got picture and video updates along the way letting us know how they were doing. Jareds dog Charlie was super sweet and you can tell he loves all people and dogs, our boys loved being around him and even got one of our dogs that doesn't play/socialize much to play with him. It made us very happy with our choice to use Jared for our boarding needs, couldn't recommend him more. We've had hit or miss experiences with pet sitters and dog boarding in the past, Jared is the best by far. Thank you!
Jared and Charlie are great! We have a 10 month old Doberman. This was our first time leaving her. We stopped over prior to staying to see if it would be a good fit and she loved it!! She’s an extremely high energy dog and she was well taken care of for her 1 night stay! Jared sent updates and videos which was great!
My dog is terrified around men. Jared definitely went above and beyond, making sure she felt comfortable around him, and making sure I felt comfortable leaving her. She felt right at home in no time and that alone speaks volumes. I cannot recommend Jared enough!
Jared was wonderful and trustworthy, taking such good care of Tala (husky- mini bulldog mix) while we stayed at Great Wolf Lodge. Tala had a lot of fun with friendly Charlie and playing chase in Jared’s big backyard. Jared’s communication was great and booking, drop off, and pick up were easy and convenient too. Highly recommend Jared and would definitely do again!
Jared was awesome!! He was super flexible with meeting up beforehand and accommodating to my plans as my times for pick up and drop off shifted a bit. This was my second time leaving Rory with a dog sitter and I know she was in good hands. He texted updates and kept in touch. She has been sleeping since we got home so I know she had a blast and played hard😁 Jared (and Charlie) were amazing and I’ll definitely be booking with him again.
TC Tails watched my little Yorkshire Terrier, Boone, for the weekend. I was nervous to leave Boone as he is anxiety prone and can be high maintenance. However, TC Tails instantly put me at ease! TC Tails was extremely attentive to Boone and all of his quirks! I received constant updates and pictures of Boone during his stay with TC Tails. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Boone was with a confident and experienced caregiver! I would definitely use TC Tails again!

Megan is wonderful with my fur children and is incredible. She helped me out so much when I rescued Molly, who suffers with separation anxiety. My fur children love seeing her and it is such a good feeling knowing that they are being cared for and loved. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!!
Megan does a fantastic job with our pets. I completely trust her, she always communicates clearly, and she is very flexible when our dates sometimes change. I have no question that when we are gone, our pets will have the care they need.
My husband, son, and I vacationed in Traverse City recently for a wedding and had to bring our energetic boxer who obveously couldn't attend and we didn't feel comfortable leaving him at the hotel alone for hours. I found Pooch and Purrs website and decided to contact Megan in regards to having her watch Mac. Upon meeting Megan and her family, I knew that our dog would be in great hands and we could enjoy our family wedding! Megan sent me pictures throughout the evening, and my family and I could tell that Mac was relaxed, loved, and having a good time with their beautiful golden retriever . I would definately ask Megan again to watch Mac as well as recommend her to anyone! Thanks Megan for taking such good care of our fur baby!
Megan takes care of my cats when I am on vacation. She is very organized and reliable. She comes every day, does the food and litter, and cuddles with my kitties for awhile. She also brings in the mail and walks through the house to make sure nothing is wrong. I don't know what I would do without Megan. I hate leaving my babies, but I know they are safe with her.
Pooch and Purr is the best! Megan has been our go-to pet sitter for the past several years. The cats look forward to her visits! She spends quality time with them at each visit and does an amazing job of reporting to us through email or texts about how they are getting along during our absence. I highly recommend Pooch and Purr. Kathy Gray
Excellent!!!! Megan always takes great care of my pets when I am out of town for work. She makes sure my dogs are calm, comfortable and happy. I can tell how much she loves animals!
Megan treats my dog like her own. Her professionalism, experience and insights have been a comfort to our pooch and our family. I highly recommend her!
I love! love! love! Megan! She is timely, helpful beyond measure and very connected to animals. I wouldn't have made it through the first year with my puppy without her help.
The best for so many reasons. Very reliable. Been around for years. Easy to deal with tons of references. Prices are great. We are lucky to have these guys in the area.
Professional, dependable, kind, and amazing. A true animal lover and dog whisperer. I can always relax knowing Megan is taking care of my fur babies while I’m at work or on vacation.

Tara is truly amazing with our two boys. They love their play time where they get to run around together and play catch with Tara. We also like that she takes and shares pictures of them playing. I highly recommend Aunt Tara's Creative Canine Solutions!
I cannot share enough about how amazing Tara and her staff are. We have a special needs pug with limited mobility. Tara and her staff welcomed our dog with so much love and care. He was well taken care of during his week long stay and it gave us great peace of mind. The facility is spotless and well kept. We can’t wait to use Aunt Tara’s again!
Tara was absolutely wonderful! We had traveled to the area with our 3 year old chocolate lab. Our pup wae not getting along with her pup cousins and we needed a place last minute for boarding. Tara worked our dog in. Upon check in we were immediately put at ease. She assured us our dog would be well cared for. Our dog takes daily pills and she was able to administer them. When we picked up our dog she was happy and healthy. Overall, it was an amazing experience. I highly recommend Tara and her staff.
Aunt Taras' is fantastic ❤️, our dogs were well taken care of, they did good, especially since it was the 1st time we left them anywhere. I'd definitely let them stay there again.
I highly recommend Aunt Tara's for boarding your dog. Whenever I leave my dog there, I can rest assured that Rocky is well taken care of. Tara is not just the owner, she is also the caregiver for the dogs. She treats them as she treats her own dog. Aunt Tara goes above and beyond! My dog gets a vacation at the same time as my family. Additionally, the facility is clean and well maintained.
My dogs have always loved Aunt Tara's for their away from home needs. Everyone is so VERY kind and thoughtful. My dog returns home happy and healthy.
Tara was awesome and worked with us to board our dogs for a friends wedding.
Aunt Tara is the best! Highly recommend boarding your pups here.
Mudbud had so much fun with Tara, he didn't want to leave!

Julie was absolutely amazing!! She has watched my dog, kitties and rabbit while I was out of town. My dog has been a little fearful to new faces but he LOVED her!! She gave a tremendous amount of needed feedback to help the family understand him and give him what he needs. So far beyond thankful for her and what she offers. A lot of love, patience and a whole lotta knowledge! She truly genuinely cares!! Thank you Julie!
Julie is amazing! Her genuine love for all animals and knowledge of their care and needs makes her the perfect pet sitter! We loved the daily text updates and our pets loved all the extra time she spent with them. If they could speak they would ask for her by name!
Julie spent the weekend spoiling our two Labradoodles. They were loved and so well cared for that leaving them with her, was a stress free experience. Julie’s passion for animals shines through in her personal care and safety of our dogs. We had a wonderful experience, as did our pups, and will definitely be calling “Aunt Julie” again!
I would like to take this opportunity to say what an absolute pleasure it was having Julie take care of my cat Lucy. She did an absolutely glorious job and way exceeded my expectations. She would send me daily pictures or videos. She and Lucy would have spa days! She literally gave Lucy attention 24 seven and it was such a pleasure knowing that my cat was in excellent hands. She did such a great job, Lucy misses her! Amazing job Julie’
Julie took fabulous care of our two dogs in our home over Thanksgiving week. We will ask her to do it again and will be able to have no worries about their wellbeing. I enthusiastically recommend her for your pet care needs.
