Cat Sitters in Barrington, NJ

Jessica

Jessica and Cris were wonderful before, during and after the sit. They were very communicative and responsive, they took good care of my kitty, home and garden and left things clean and tidy. I hope to have them sit again - they are super nice and kind people! Highly recommend to others.

Leanna

I don't think there are enough positive adjectives in the dictionary to describe Leanna. She was outstanding in every way. My house was immaculate when I got home. My dog Henry , who is very laid back, showed a lot of affection for her. She stayed in touch with me regularly and sent pictures of Henry playing in the yard and at the dog park. I would not hesitate for a minute to have Leanna stay here again. She is very sweet and easy to relate and talk with. This was my first time using Zeewoi. I can only hope, that the next time I use zeewoi, I am lucky enough to get someone as lovely as Leanna!

Dana & James

Dana and Jim did a great job, and I would welcome them back. They took good care of Caesar, and sent us regular updates. The house was spotless when we returned, and communicating with them was easy and efficient. I'd highly recommend them to other pet parents.

Sarah & Abraham

Sarah was an excellent pet sitter--I truly couldn't have asked for someone more attentive to the cat's needs or to my being informed via photos and texts. They also left the apartment neat and clean, which was much appreciated.

Rose

I typically try to remain as neutral and objective as possible in reviews, but Rose is truly a gem and I was lucky to have her to watch over Tilly. I would highly recommend her to care for your home and/or pets. Rose was very communicative regarding arrival time and departure time. She took Tilly for a walk as I left so we could walk together for a bit before going our separate ways and it kept Tilly distracted. During the stay, I received multiple updates a day, which included photos and/or videos. The videos really showed just how happy Tilly was with Rose and provided great peace of mind and also abundant smiles as I got to see my pup while being away. Rose took Tilly on adventures and also navigated the heat wave we were experiencing by breaking up her usual walks to be shorter. She went above and beyond by giving Tilly a bath and washing the sheets before departing. When I came home, everything was clean and tidy. Dishes were all washed and drying.

Tamara

Tamara did a fabulous job caring for Marco and our home while we were on vacation. She was friendly, communicative and sent regular updates; she was extremely self-sufficient, and left the house clean and tidy. Marco appeared very well taken care of, and was not at all needy when we got home - a sure sign that he got plenty of attention during our absence! I would have Tamara back in a heartbeat!

Kailey & Jonathan

Kailey and Johnny were amazing with our four cats and it was obvious for us, since the cats got super comfortable with them in a very short time! Our cats all have special needs (one needs daily medication, another is a picky eater, and our 2 girls are quite needy with playtime) and both Kailey and Johnny handled all their needs excellently. We had 10 days of relaxing vacations knowing that our furry family was in good hands ❤

Nia

Nia was great. Reliable and left the house in great shape. Kitties were very happy.

Jenny & Rory

Jen and Rory came to the rescue for a last minute change in my travel plans. They not only had the sit to do, but also the handover to the sitters coming in for the original dates as I had to leave 5 days early. They were very organized and took everything in stride. They kept in touch and sent photos of my Splash which I really appreciated.

Shqiponja

Shqiponjia was awesome! I felt bad since our travel plans changed last minute and it shortened her trip, but she was understanding and flexible. She took good care of our babies and left the house tidy & there were no worries while we were away! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter :)

Andrea & David

Words cannot describe how lucky we were to get Andrea, David and Luca as our house sitters. During the house sit, our little dog Honey became very ill and was hospitalised numerous times. They handled this situation with so much compassion and generosity. We we’re uncontactable for a large proportion of time and as such they had to liaise with members of our family and also the vet directly. Everyone who came into contact with them said they had been just wonderful with Honey. There is no doubt the whole scenario was very stressful for them but they never complained. In the end, we had to cut our trip short to come home and be with Honey during her final days. This meant that they had to find alternative accommodation over Christmas. Again, there was no fuss or complaints just compassion. Aside from that they kept the house in excellent condition and looked after our other pets (chickens and a cat) very well. Luca is an adorable child by the way! I would thoroughly recommend Andrea, David and Luca for any house or pet sitting assignments. 200% happy. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any additional references for them. I would be more than happy to provide.

Corinne

Corinne did a great job caring for our boys! They seemed very happy when we came home and the house was neat and tidy. Would definitely recommend.

karen

Emma and Matt took great care of all our pets over the last two weeks and left the house in a clean and tidy condition for our return. We didn’t get to meet in person but had good communications throughout  the process and whilst we were away they sent regular updates and photos . Lily our Lab was calm and settled when we returned home so obviously was thoroughly spoiled by Emma and Matt. 
They also took care of the garden and veg patch and mowed the lawn so everything was kept healthy whilst we were gone. 
We wound recommend them to anyone looking for sitters.

Rachael

Sarah was a fabulous sitter! Super friendly, organised and reliable. I always feel super anxious leaving my boys but I felt comfortable with Sarah straight away, and it seemed the boys did too! Sarah kept in contact, sending photos and providing updates which was lovely. The house was super tidy upon my return home also. Would definitely recommend Sarah to anyone who wants a great sit ☺️
