Cat Sitters in Boring, MD

Chandra

We were thrilled to have Chandra watch our two pups during our holiday vacation. She communicated well, kept us updated on the dogs, and kept our house in great condition. We highly recommend her and would be happy to welcome her back anytime!

Michael

Mike was the perfect housesitter, I can't recommend him enough! We came back to a spotless house and an incredibly relaxed cat. Mike was communicative, flexible and looked after our house as if it was his own. Thanks so much Mike!

Alexandra

Alexandra took excellent care of my 3 cats while I was away for a week. She communicated well before and during the stay, sending me updates and photos so I could see the cats were doing well. My shyest cat, Frankie, warmed up to her almost immediately, which is very unusual. She left the house in good condition and I had little to do when I returned home. The cats were calm, well fed, and only had good things to say about Alexandra!

Hannah

July 22, 2022 Hannah and her boyfriend Chiyoung were ideal house sitters for my two dogs, Charlie and Gertie. They relentlessly walked the dogs three times a day and allowed them time to meet their canine friends in the hood. They also proved to be excellent at keeping my house in good shape and in looking after my swimming pool. The place was in better shape than before I left to visit my sister in Scotland. Hannah and Chiyoung have my highest recommendation.. I give them five stars in every category. John McClintcok

Maurica (Ivy)

Ivy did a terrific job (again!) taking care of our feline friends. She left the house spotless, including doing the sheets and towels before our return. She communicated well both before and during the sit, including pictures of our goofball kitties. She even bought them treats (with permission) for Christmas! Everything was in excellent order when we returned and we would be delighted to have Ivy sit for us again!

Gracie

Gracie and Sophie provided everything we needed for our (2) ragdoll cats. As this was our first time with zeewoi, we were very anxious about the process. Turns out, we didn't need to worry at all. Our Kitties seemed to make out just fine with Gracie and Sophie. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Rebecca

Rebecca was an absolute blessing to have caring for my kitties while I was away. She went above and beyond to care for my home, humidifier refills, plants, grabbing packages etc… and was always happy to do it. Rebecca was also super communicative , willing to facetime prior to her first day, and sent me some great photos/ videos of my boys. From my experience, Rebecca will adjust as you need to make u comfortable while you’re away from ur loved ones ☺️ Also- my 2 cats loved her, cuddled, wanted to be friends and were super cute and happy when i returned (to a clean apartment!!) THANKS REBECCA

Christopher

Chris and Alex were wonderful. They were attentive, responsive, responsible, showered Whiskey with attention, and took her on adventures. We highly recommend Chris and Alex and would have them back in a heartbeat.

Kaitlin

Kaitlin was amazing. She sent me daily updates and I loved seeing how affectionate our dog was with Kaitlin. Our neighbors also commented that they saw a lot of Fern and Kaitlin, and Fern's tail was always wagging. Kaitlin left the house neat and clean, and spent lots of quality time with Fern. I think Fern actually had some withdrawals when I got home and had to go back to work! I would definitely recommend Kaitlin to care for your pets.

Nick

Nick and Ally did a wonderful job caring for our dog and house. They left the place just as they found it, and sent pictures throughout the weekend which we appreciated! Our dog was very happy to have them, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a house/pet-sitter!

Sofia

Sofia was an incredibly caring, clean, and communicative pet sitter. My dogs did great with her and she kept the home nice and tidy while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Christine & Richard

Christine & Richard were great. They watched our two dogs while we were away for a long weekend, and even took care of administering medicine when one of them had a last minute ear infection pop up. Would love to have them sit again some time!

Jo

Hi we found Achala and Ben to be very switched on and experienced house sitters so helped us navigate our first house sitting experience- they were hugely self sufficient and we agreed that we didn’t need to check in everyday but they kept us well informed about our dogs and asked for whatever they needed. The dogs were totally chilled and content on our return which was so different from when we had to put them in kennels and they were very stressed . House was clean and tidy and it was as if no one else had been here on our return. We are very grateful and recommend them highly.

Kiki and Marius !!!!!  What a great pair.....  

The basics:  Every day a photo which of course put every pet parent at ease!!  Every day a text regarding how things are going... in that aspect, they were much better that me! I was so busy my mind was bogged down with to many things...

The great things: SUCH a lovely couple!!!  I immediately felt so happy and relaxed when they arrived.  Kiki is an architect so we had lots to talk about regarding this medieval town house I have adopted.  It was immediately obvious they would get on with Otis.

Now for the amazing:  They were here during our hottest week for the whole summer!  Poor things. Thank goodness the down stairs tends to be a bit cooler than the rest of the house.....Their air con unit leaked (!!!!!) and they had to wait three days for it to be fixed... 

BUT - to top it all, on day with 38° showing on the mercury, we had an electricity cut that lasted until the wee hours of the morning (FRANCE!!!!!), which meant no air con in the bedrooms.  I would not have blamed them if they had packed up and headed for the beach for a few days... but they stayed!

These two are nothing short of sainthood.... 

THANK YOU BOTH!!

Next time, we get to hang out more....

(PS- if they agree to pet sit for you, count yourselves LUCK!)
