Pet Sitters in Benton, MI

Amy & Eric

Amy and Eric went well beyond our expectations to care for Bodie, including care for a resolving health issue. Shay was a nice little companion for Bodie. Amy and Eric took excellent care of our house, pool, and plants. They kept in touch with us while we were away, sending daily photos and stories of Bodie. They included him on some local adventures. They are an engaging and fun couple who we enjoyed meeting. We would highly recommend them as sitters!

Yei-Rin

Yei-Rin and her sister were kid, thoughtful and tidy! We would host them again!

Kelley

Although Kelley flew in from another state, she went out of her way to meet with me prior to the sit so I could introduce her to the pets and show her around the house. She is very pleasant and friendly and both pets took to her right away. Babe the Basset Hound can be a little demanding about getting lots of love and she clearly was well taken care of. Kelley sent several cute pictures and kept me informed about how they were doing. The house was in good order when I returned.

Karla

Karla practically became a family member to my boys. They were well cared for and her vet tech experience came in handy. My home was spotless upon return and I'd welcome her back anytime. She's checked back to make sure my guys are doing well once she left. I appreciate her attention to detail.

Saadet

Actual dates of service were January 6 to February 11.

Patricia

Patricia was great to have as a house and pet sitter. She took really good care of our cats and was very friendly and trustworthy. She left our house in great shape too.

Anderson

Ande was very caring with Paco (I could tell he didnt even miss me) and when I came back home everything was in order. She sent me periodic updates of him and pictures. This was my first experience with zeewoi and it couldnt have been better! Thank you Ande

Megan

Megan agreed to cat sit last minute on a holiday weekend. She was willing to do both a video call and an in-person visit before the sit, which made me feel really comfortable leaving my cat Moose in her care! She was self-sufficient during her stay but also sent cute photos and updates about Moose. Moose seemed happy when I got back and the litter box was nice and clean. I’d definitely recommend her to other cat parents. Thanks Megan!

Bri

Bri was amazing and super reliable! Teffy had a great time with her and my apartment was really taken care of! She is so wonderful ☺️

Emily

Emily was just fine… part of struggle was she came and brought a friend and I didn’t know anything about this person who was staying at my house. I also didn’t get much communication or photographs of their wellbeing which was a bummer (I’m really used to the housesitters that give me an update regularly). But the house was very clean. She was very independent and my puppies seem just fine.

Courtney

I was super happy with my sit with Courtney! She and her niece housesat for me while my fiancé and I were out of town. She was incredibly friendly, kind, and I could tell she very much cared about the wellbeing of my pets. She took my husky on several day trips and hikes and sent me pictures along the way, I know my dog had a blast with her! My house was also super tidy upon our return. I’d be happy to have her sit for me again!

Margie & James

Margie and James flew from Michigan and rented a car to get to my home to care for Deegan. I am so glad they came. Delightful couple and they loved to take of Deegan. They took him for many for many walks and rides in their car. House was neat and clean. I mixed up my dates and came back a day early. We spend a fun night together sharing stories.

Julie

Julie has a beautiful home that has a very peaceful ambience.  The animals were incredibly easy to take care of--Dodger is a very happy and calm dog.  I wish all my sits were this easy.

Finola

We had the best time at Finola’s house. I didn’t actually meet Finola in person as we arrived at the house after she left and left before she arrived back home but we spoke on the phone and she was lovely and easygoing. 

The house is absolutely beautiful. It’s modern, large, open and airy. The kitchen is my dream kitchen and the backyard is very spacious, with a cool trampoline and kids play house. Inside, there are so many kids toys for your child to play with, which made this the perfect place to stay for young families. My son didn’t want to leave the house as he wanted to play in the toy room the whole time. 

The dogs were adorable. Ted is the most lovable dog I think I have met. He’s big but so lovely. I was a bit worried entering the house on our own that he might be protective of the house and growl at us, but Finola was right, he just licked us 😆. Ted is very well behaved and loves pats and hanging out int be The two small dogs were

Laura

Laura and Steve’s place in Sedalia was truly a one of a kind stay. The animals, the land, and the views! They also made sure to make it really simple for us to complete the daily tasks. They left a laminated check list of all of the tasks that had to be done in the AM and PM. It didn’t take my partner and I longer than 45 mins to get done. We absolutely loved every single minute of it. We were so sad to say goodbye to all of the animals. Can’t wait to do it again!

Nohelia

Housesitting for Nohelia was delightful. Her home is warm and welcoming, and her cat, Haggis, is very sweet. Nohelia provided clear instructions, making everything straightforward. I’d happily housesit for her and Haggis again!

Maria

Zaza is probably one of the most affectionate and cuddly cats I've met! She's a cutie and we bonded super quick :) It was even hard to leave the house and we spent a lot of time playing, cuddling, doing things around and chilling together. Also sleeping ♡ Maria was super nice and friendly, really flexible and everything went so smooth.  Had a really great time at her place with Zaza and it felt homely. If the opportunity comes, I'd love to take care of Zaza again.

Gillaine

We loved watching Lolo at her idyllic New England home.  Gillaine set us up for success. The communication was superb! We had a complete understanding of how to care for Lolo's needs and what to expect overall. Additionally, the home was spotless and comfortable. Thank you for the opportunity to hang out with Lolo in your beautiful New England home.
