Dan
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otsego County, Michigan
Retired Couple looking to be a Blessing to Homeowners we come in contact with an
So much thanks to Dan and Paige for their wonderful care of our Suki and Jack. This was our first pet sit so we didn't know exactly what to expect. Dan and Paige set a high bar. The communication was amazing. we had lots of pictures and regular updates. I couldn't believe how our cat Suki warmed up to them. I expected her to hide most of the time but she sat near them watching movies and hanging out. Our dog Jack is a lover so he was in heaven with the extra attention. The house was in better shape than when we left if. Any initial jitters we had disappeared instantly when they arrived. I think these two were made for pet sitting. They were kind enough to explain the ropes of pet sitting and we were grateful for their candid insights. I hope we can have them again. Thanks very much Dan and Paige!
Angeline
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otsego County, Michigan
All-star sitter who loves animals and traveling!
We recently had the pleasure of having Angeline and Desiree housesit and take care of our cats, Tiga and Bud. Throughout their stay, they maintained excellent communication, providing timely updates and sent us the best photos and videos of the kitties! They were great with managing our deliveries too. We returned to an immaculate apartment, and happy, relaxed and well-fed cats. Angeline and Desiree are reliable, friendly, and professional sitters we'd gladly welcome back. If you're searching for the perfect house sitters, look no further than this wonderful mother-daughter duo!
Lynn
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otsego County, Michigan
Fun Furrogate Parents
Lynn and Jeff are the very best of zeewoi, my only regret is that we didn’t stay home to spend more time with them. They are kind, open, warm, straightforward people you will want as friends and neighbors; who love life, pets, homes, and new people as much as we do. They did break one rule: they left our house cleaner than they found it! Considering all the dead critter gifts our kitties brought them that was a big effort. I’m so grateful we crossed paths with this wonderful couple.
Desiree
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otsego County, Michigan
Remote worker looking to spend unique times w/your pets and home
This was my first time using zeewoi and I could not be more impressed with Desiree's services. She did an amazing job at taking care of my cat Mimi and my apartment while I was gone and I came back to my place cleaner than I left it and my cat happy and in good health. Desiree did an excellent job at communicating with me and frequently sent me pictures to ensure my cat was doing well. I was initially worried about leaving my cat with someone else while I was out of the country but I got SO lucky finding the most caring and kind person! Would highly recommend to anyone and I would definitely use her services again.
James
Providing Pet Sitting in the Otsego County, Michigan
JIM AND DEBORAH
This listing is for Jim, but he and wife, Deb are a package deal, especially when it comes to horse care. Deb is the horse person. Since they live in my area in the winter, only Jim stayed at my house while Deb stayed at home with their own dogs. She came at feeding times to make sure Jim was "on it" until he got accustomed. All went well. Did have a glitch with my well (it apparently was on its way out) but I was able to coach Jim over the phone on what to do. He was definitely fine with handling stuff like that and didn't get flustered (like me!) Due to a medical emergency on our trip, we had to come home a week early. I was grateful that they were local and I didn't mess up their plans! Hope to have them back in the future if my gang wasn't too much for them!
Janet

Experienced House Sitters Who will Care For Your home and Pets
Janet did a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my home while I was gone for almost a month. She kept me posted regularly and responded quickly to a couple of requests I had to make while traveling.

Steele

Open-minded, compassionate, loving pet-sitter
I would invite Steele back anytime. He was communicative, reliable, friendly, and conscientious of my dog and cat’s needs. He took great care of my home too, I came back to it just as I left it. He also left a very sweet note and little parting gifts for me and the fur babies! So sweet.

Reviews from Pet Owners
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.
Barbara
Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!
Ericka
Leah was an excellent pet sitter and take care of our home when we were on vacation. Our dogs were sad when she left. She even made us some delicious tacos when we got home from the airport! We highly recommend her!
Sarah
Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.
Kristen
Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!
Laurie
Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !! She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !
Kellie
Laura was amazing with communication from the very beginning. She sent updates of photos and videos without even being told or asked to do so. She was watching our cat and treated her like her own. Laura was also very responsive when we were trying to find a sitter for our dates and answered any and all questions we had about her experience with pets and house sitting. I would recommend her to anyone! :) and hope we can have her house sit again for us.
Mona
David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.
Samantha
Farhan is a fantastic house sitter! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a down-to-earth, kind, and caring pet sitter for their home. We have three small dogs (around 6 lbs) and he took excellent care of them. They can be a little nervous/ timid around new people, and more so around men at times, but the dogs didn't show any of that nervousness around Farhan! He was gentle and respectful of their space and they warmed up to him immediately. I got a wonderful text the first morning that I was away that they cuddled up with him at night - showing how quickly they adjusted to him as their caretaker. I was able to meet Farhan in person before I left on my trip and I was able to have a wonderful conversation with an ambitious explorer. He is a delightful person. Upon my homecoming the house was very clean and the dogs were happy and relaxed. I can't ask for anything more! Thank you Farhan for taking such wonderful care of our three dogs and our home.
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!
