Cat Sitters in Acton, MA

Samantha

I am so happy with Samantha. She took great care of my baby kitty. She sent me pics and stayed in touch. I highly recommend Samantha. She was great!

Manny

We first met Manny, months before his stay. He was quick to state his desire to stay in our house, take care of our dogs AND play my marimba. He has always communicated quickly before and during his stay. Both dogs adore him. He is very attentive to their needs and has spent time getting to know them. We had the added bonus of offering our home to him during his entire time in Lincoln. That allowed us to share a few days of life together. Having Manny in our home added lots of laughter and joy. We look forward to spending time with you again in the future.

Maureen

Maureen was great from the first time we talked on the phone. She was friendly and asked all the right questions.. It was my first Zeewoi experience and Maureen was super. The house was in great shape and the animals were well cared for. I highly recommend her!

Katherine

Kate was an exceptional house sitter, providing us with complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with plenty of photos of Zeus and treated him to numerous long walks, spoiling him rotten! Kate was always accessible if we had any queries. Upon our return, we were thrilled to find our home immaculate and spotless. We wholeheartedly invite Kate to return anytime!

Kit

Kit was amazing and took great care of our babies and our home. She kept us up to date and sent pics while we were gone and left the house nice and tidy for our return. She was also very amenable to helping if our flights got delayed or any other scheduling issues we may have needed support with. We would welcome her back anytime!

Samantha

This was our second time having Samantha as a sitter, both times for several weeks. She’s absolutely excellent! Very responsible with all of the pet and home care tasks, helpful on any unexpected house-related issue, very proactive, and amazingly loving and caring for our doggo. Samantha has our trust 100% and we would have her at our home anytime. Lego already misses you, Samantha!

Miranda

Loved having Miranda taking care of Dante. She was kind, reliable, and very playful with my young dog. She is a wonderful and energetic person and a great communicator. I highly recommend her.

Ifat & Yaniv

Ifat and Yaniv were great sitters and both of my pets were clearly l well looked after. They were def-reliant, communicative, very friendly and responsible.

Shirley

Shirley and her husband Brian stayed with Luna for 10 days while we visited friends on the West Coast. Luna lived her best life with lots of walks and extra love with Brian at home too (Luna was Brian’s friendly shadow.) Shirley shared regular fun photo updates. Once again we came home to a happy dog and clean home, complete with some delicious food in the frig and sweet notes around the kitchen. This was our 4th sit with Shirley. We have loved getting to know Shirley and her wonderful family, and feel so lucky that her work brings her regularly to Boston. Thank you Shirley and Brian, we look forward to seeing you again!

Jennifer & Jephta

Jennifer & Jephta were wonderful sitters! We got daily updates of the cats with photos, which we love. Upon our return, the house was just as we'd left it- clean and tidy :) And the cats had been well cared for! We would happily have them again and surley recommend them for future sits.

Valentin

I wish we could have Valentin and Anna watch our kitty every time we’re away! They were some of the best sitters we’ve had, and I would recommend them 100% They took amazing care of our girl and sent tons of pictures and updates. It was very obvious how much they cared about our cat and gave her so much love and affection. They left our apartment spotless and were just a joy to communicate with. They are welcome back any time ☺️

Jonathan & Julia

Jonathan and Julia were perfect house- and dogsitters: conscientious, reliable and enthusiastic about the area and (most importantly to us, of course) our dog, sending us updates on their activities and photos of our dog Louie playing ball and sitting on Julia's lap. He was obviously happy and well looked after by them, and not only was the house spotless when we returned but they had prepared a welcome dinner for us. We are delighted to recommend them and hope to see them again.

Amanda

Yvette was an amazing sitter. She communicated with us daily about our kitties, sending photos and sharing updates. I really appreciated her attentiveness and patience.

Cari

Gurds came to our rescue after a last minute change of plans - and boy were we grateful for her!

Not only was she willing to come on short notice, but she looked after our home beautifully, even washing our sheets on the last day. Mango, the cat, took to her immediately and could obviously feel her positive energy - he seemed very happy when we got back (and at a perfect weight!). Gurds didn't need us to answer any questions really, picking things up straight away once we told her where things were, and providing us with daily updates - which we loved, as it was our first time leaving Mango. I believe she doesn't have the most experience in the world, but she was a natural, taking to it easily, calmly and professionally.  I'd be happy to trust her again.
