Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
WFH researcher excited to provide quality care to your furry loved ones!

Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Reviews From Pet sitter
I used to sit through Rover, but it always felt like a job. I had to accept sits I didn’t really want—like pets I wasn’t comfortable with or dates that didn’t work for me. If I said no, my rating would drop, and I’d lose future opportunities. It was stressful, and I started to lose my love for pet sitting.
Then I found Zeewoi. Here, I get to choose the pets I love, the dates that fit my schedule, and the places I want to explore. It’s not a job anymore—it’s a chance to spend time with animals I adore, and feel empowered to say no without fear. Zeewoi gave me back the joy of pet sitting.

I’m a writer who works remotely, but hotels and Airbnbs add up fast. Zeewoi lets me live in homes full-time while owners are away—not just caring for their pets, but keeping their house safe. Turns out, in a lot of states, leaving your house empty for more than 5 days can mess up your insurance.
It’s a trade that works. Owners avoid risks, and I get free places to write—like that month in a cabin where I finished my book with a snoozing Labrador at my feet. The pets keep me company, the house gives me space to focus, and nobody’s stressing about an empty home.

After retiring and losing our dog, my husband and I sold our house and started traveling full-time. We’re in our late 60s and can’t rush, so Zeewoi is perfect. We care for pets in exchange for free places to stay.
In 3 years, we’ve visited 46 states. We’ve stayed in homes, farms, and apartments, looking after dogs, cats, and even a llama. Owners get free pet care; we get to travel slowly and affordably. It’s meaningful—we help people (new parents, busy workers) and still feel connected to pets after losing ours.
No stress, no hotels. We’re healthier, happier, and forever grateful. Alaska and Hawaii, here we come!

Andrea
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!
Shannon
Janis and her husband Dan were beyond phenomenal! Communication was great leading up to their arrival, especially with coordinating arrival and departure times. And during the sit, I got lots of picture updates throughout of how Isabel was doing. I could tell from the pictures how comfortable and happy my dog was hanging out with Janis and Dan and getting all the pets and attention. Coming home, everything was left so clean and organized. I definitely recommend them as pet sitters as they clearly took such good care of both my pup and my home.
Sheelagh
honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Kim
We were lucky to have Andrea back for another sit with our elderly dog and feral cat. She has been wonderful both in the past and on this last sit for a month! We trust her implicitly and are always at ease that our pets will have the most kind and careful attention. She is excellent with videos and communication and very clean and tidy. Again we feel lucky to have found her, and feel she would be a great sitter for any pets!
Jenny
Sharon was by far the best sitter I’ve ever had! From the very first time we connected, she was communicative and proactive with follow up. She asked great questions prior to her stay and I could tell she’s done this many times and that she genuinely cares about the pets and homes she cares for. Sharon went above and beyond to leave my house in ever better shape, cleaning and organizing. It was a dream to come home to! Thank you Sharon!
Bonnie
Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers. I would recommend them over and over. I wish I could add numbers to the scale. They would get a 10+. Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate. They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left! I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.
Jeanette
I have had 4 pet sitters this year so far. And Liz was the best! She was wonderful with cats. She has an easy going manner and is very comfortable to be around. Very smart and she is a great communicator. She followed all directions and left the house spotless. I highly, highly, highly recommend her! I would have her again anytime!
Hannah
Mikala & Jake were great house & pet sitters for us!! Our dog and two cats absolutely adored them, and we came back to a very clean home with happy animals :) They were very reliable and fast communicators. They even had to deal with our power going out while we were away, and they handled it well. It eased our minds to know our animals and house were in such great care while we were away and would have them sit for us anytime!
Mara
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!
Marcia
Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat. He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care. Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!

We were so pleased with our recent experience with Pet Sitters Plus. It was our first time and we were nervous because our dog is our child. The reservation process was seamless and of course we still had fears even with the great reviews. Our concerns were alleviated when we dropped our baby off and there were a full range of small and big dogs being dropped off, so we knew we were in popular hands. The team were thorough to the t and dotted I with all vaccination records as well, so we knew all health checks were covered. We called and checked in throughout the stay and the staff were great at calling right back to give status updates on how everything was going. When we picked up our baby we were delivered a well fed, well socialized and clean dog. She had a great time and now we know we have a trusted place to house her when we leave town.
Again,such outstanding experience. Staff is very through, friendly and wonderful pet care! Over all economical, clean and dedicated
The 1st time with my 2 dogs seem like it went pretty good, Second stay that they recently had. My dogs were only given half their food per day. Their kennel was disgusting when I picked them up. They came home and ate like a couple of pigs And smell like they were laying in their own urine. One of my dogs has kennel cough. He was vaccinated. I understand that's a risk. Any pet owner takes when they kennel their dog. But my problem is the lack of food. The despicable kennel condition and the combative owner that wouldn't admit the poor treatment of my dogs. No way in hell will my dogs ever be kenneled there again.
My dog loves it there! She's always excited to go and play with the other dogs. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and excellent with the dogs. The facility has always been clean and tidy. I've used both the dog daycare and the overnight boarding for a few days. I've been extremely happy with both services and I highly recommend Pet Sitters Plus!
I have always used Pet Sitters Plus as my go to boarding facility. Friendly workers, clean building and I know my dog will be taken care of after I leave.
Needed a place to board our dog while on our way to Wisconsin! Had never been here or boarded our puppy but she did great! Very nice people and that made sure to take pics of your pet during their stay! Only dislike is their weird hours but it makes sense, just was an inconvenience during our travels.
I was very nervous to board our dogs for the first time. Pet Sitters Plus helped ease my fears and helped our dogs feel comfortable with the new environment. They even had the opportunity to socialize with other dogs during group play time. They received great care at an affordable rate! We will be definitely be repeat customers!
Excellent staff! I don't board my cat anywhere else, when I have to go out of town.
We boarded our dog here for 3 nights and had a very good experience. We were very nervous to leave him anywhere and staff was very reassuring. They took a lot of precautions to ensure safety which was much appreciated given the current parvo outbreak. Upon return, our dog showed minimal signs of distress and anxiety and appeared to be very healthy . He didn’t even come home with kennel cough which I was almost expecting since it isn’t uncommon for him to get it after being around so many dogs. We would for sure have him stay again in the future :)
What a great boarding kennel. Staff is super friendly and treated our furry family members so well. Our dogs absolutely loved their stay and especially the large outdoor fenced areas!

Morgan E made us feel very comfortable and confident that our dog and cat were in good care. At our meet and greet she was eager to learn about our pets and their needs. We left on our vacation without a single worry for our pets or our home. She updated us once or twice a day, sharing pictures. We came home to a cleaner house than we left and very well cared for animals. Thank you Morgan!
Morgan is an awesome pet sitter! Our cats Max & Molly love having her check in on them, feed them and give them attention when we have to go out of town and need a sitter. Morgan really puts our minds at ease knowing that our cat kids are being so well taken care of when we are away! I highly recommend Superior Pet Sitting Company for the care of your pets!
These gals are great!! They take care of your pets as if they were their own!! I never have to worry when they are takes with taking care of our loved pets!! They take pictures, they play with them and always go the extra mile! Highly recommend!

We have been using Rhonda at Critter Sitter for almost a year now, and she has been wonderful. She is reliable and very easy to work with. She definitely goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of our dog.
Rhonda was incredibly professional, friendly and communicative. Our dog loved her and she made our first year with our puppy much less stressful. Never failed to exceed expectations. Can! Not! Recommend! Enough!
Rhonda was amazing! She was quick to respond with her availability to help us and the meet and greet was wonderful. She is very thorough and we felt very comfortable leaving our kitties with her! She sent us pictures and updates each time she had visited- so happy to get those. I would highly recommend this business!!
Rhonda is not only a friend but a huge activist for all animals. The Lynch family was beyond thrilled when she started this endeavor. We were out of town for several hours and have an 18 month old Golden Retriever Willow. Rhonda asked all the right questions about her habits and took her on a lovely walk and gave her some loving❤️🐾 We highly recommend Rhonda to care for your pets and we will be calling her again soon!
Rhonda was amazing! She does a great job pet sitting and has excellent communication. I highly recommend her.
I’ve left my two cats with Critter Sitter several times, and I’ve only had great experiences! She’s accessible, friendly, and I can tell that she genuinely cares for my pets. I feel very comfortable recommending her to anyone looking for a petsitter in the Marquette area.
I had Critter Sitter watch my kitties for a weekend. She went above and beyond! She did a wonderful job and updated me often. She even made friends with my EXTREMELY shy kitty! She truly is a "critter whisperer"!
She was wonderful with my kitten! This was the longest I have been away from my kitten, and with the daily pictures and frequent updates I knew my kitty was doing well without me!!
Great Service! Local and friendly! Highly recommended!
