Pet Sitters in Bristol County, RI

Morgan

Morgan was incredible! She took great care of the cats and Hugo. The house looked great, as well. She was very responsive and kept us informed about everything. Can’t wait for her to come take care of everything again!

Jacqueline

It was an absolute delight to welcome Jackie back to sit for us, this time with her equally lovely daughter Libby. From the outset Jackie was calm and friendly; she put the dogs absolutely at their ease, and calmed any fears we had about leaving them. They were walked for miles each day, and we received the most lovely photos of them on their adventures, and clearly having a great time in our absence. We were completely relaxed knowing that they were in the very best of hands, and it was a win win for all! We would LOVE to see Jackie again, with whoever she wishes to bring with her! The safest of onward travels, and thank you both from us, from the bottom of our hearts.

Nancy

Nancy was wonderful! She was consistent and thorough with her communication leading up to her stay. She cared for our kitties with love and affection, sending status updates, pictures, and videos throughout her time in our house. The house was in an excellent state upon our return, and she even left a charming handwritten thank you note! We would definitely recommend Nancy as a house / pet sitter for others and would love to have her return for another stay in the future!

Sydney

Sydney stayed at our home for ten nights while we went on a cruise for our daughter’s wedding. Because we live on an island and the ferries were predicted to be cancelled because of inclement weather, she was flexible enough able to come a day early. She communicated via text and photos throughout our trip, which was reassurance that our dog, Lilly was very well cared for. She even made her some homemade pup treats! When we returned home, Lilly was quite happy, but kept checking the guest room to look for Sydney. My car and home were spotless; Sydney left us a few adorable gifts, which she really didn’t have to do! I would say she is truly the best dog sitter we have ever had and we hope she is able to sit for us on our next vacation!

Sarah

Sarah was friendly, communicated well, and gave our animals so much love. This was our first zeewoi experience and I was so happy with her professional care and how happy our animals were while we were gone for a week!

Duke

Duke was WONDERFUL! He took the best care of our dogs and prioritized their needs daily. I’m being honest when I say he’s been the absolute best person we’ve ever had. He was 100% reliable and communicative - sending photos and updates each morning and evening. He left the house completely clean for us, too. I’m so thankful for his time spent in our home with our dogs and I would proudly and happily recommend him to anyone needing a Zeewoi. Thanks a bunch, Duke! (:

Greg

Greg and his wife took excellent care of our dog and our home. We would gladly have them back for another dog sit soon.

Julia

Julia had favorited my listing, and after reading her profile, I private invited her to see if she was interested in my sit, and she was! Process went smoothly, great communication before and during the sit. She coordinated with me on her arrival time and picking up keys (as it was agreed that she'd arrive after I'd left), sent me a pic/text when she arrived, and then sent a few pics over the days I was away which I always love to see. When I came home, I found Bootsie lazing contentedly. He was not skittish at all = happy! My home was clean and tidy. I plan to keep Julia "starred" and will invite her to future sits on chance she might come back again.

Thienne & Rafael

Thienne was an excellent housesitter. She sent lots of clear communication and left the house spotless.

Jill

Jill was amazing! The dogs adored her and she handled them well. We had no problem leaving them with her. I look forward to our next meeting. Thanks again Jill 😘

Julie

We had to leave home at short notice because of a family illness in the UK and Julie pulled out all the stops to get to us in time. We were so grateful to her and impressed. She said she would do it and she did! She's such a nice friendly person, who obviously likes and cares about animals. We came home to a clean and tidy house (and terrace) and a very relaxed, contented dog, Jesse. Julie watered all of our plants that needed watering too. She's a safe pair of hands for sure in an emergency. We were not quite as prepared as we normally are for a sitter because of the circumstances but nothing seemed to faze her. We wish Julie all the best on the rest of her travels and a safe journey home. We highly recommend her for the care of your home and pets.

Annika & Greg

Our animals were very well looked after. We were very happy with the sit. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and they would be welcome back anytime.

kim

What a wonderful location to look after cute kitties in! We were literally on the edge of the New Forest, which is absolutely beautiful. Kim, Chris and co are all lovely and very welcoming. They were very accommodating when I asked at the last minute if my friend might be able to join me. The home is very comfortable and has a wonderful garden. We were invited to harvest delicious fresh beans from the garden! We were also told to help ourselves to any food, etc, that we needed. Thank you so much for your kindness. We had such a lovely stay.

Kathryn

It was a pleasure to house sit for Kathryn and take care of the extremely sweet Juju!  I so enjoyed coming home to this vocal kitty.  It was just nice to find her waiting for me, and to decompress from LA traffic by petting and loving her.  She was easy to take care of, and Kathryn has everything so well-organized in terms of her food and litter box.  It was a joy to be in the house, and so nice to have the outdoors as part of the living space--all is comfortable and clean and pleasant to hang out in.  I even enjoyed the unheated pool, as it was unseasonably warm the days I stayed!  Kathryn was great to communicate with, very responsive and very friendly.  The house is easy to find, with lots of restaurants and shops close by.  I recommend this sit, and would do it again!

Joanne

This has been our favorite sit so far. The house is so beautiful and Johanne and Andy are wonderful hosts. They had everything organized and ready for us when we arrived. We got written details of everything we needed for our 10 day stay. 
The house is big and comfortable and beautiful. We loved looking at the pond every morning. Chuma and the outdoor cats were so sweet and easy to care for. The Coronel was just like one of the cats. 
We loved the wood fire each night and the great TV and wifi.  
It was a real treat staying here and would recommend it to anyone doing house sitting. 
Thank you both for having us. 
Tony n Encarna.

Paula

It was an absolute pleasure to watch Jade. Paula was so kind. Her home is lovely and in the best location. It was my 1st Holiday away from home/family and it was nice to have fun with Jade.

Susan

Luna and George are so fun to hang out with. And Susan communicated well and left simple, straight instructions. Great stay, lovely atmosphere. Hope to pet sit here again.  :)

Margaret

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Margaret, her home, and my time spent with Gus! Her home is incredibly comfortable with every fun kitchen, exercise, or relaxation gadget you can imagine, including a freakin' massage chair! She had the sweetest note and bottle of wine waiting for me when I walked in. Gus is an absolute joy to pal around with and such an easy, sweet, loving dog. I would be over the moon to stay with Gus again and now call both Margaret and Gus friends. Highly recommend!
