Cat Sitters in Brooklyn, IL

Amanda

Amanda and her daughters took wonderful care of the dogs. Both dogs seemed happy and the house looked great when we returned home. Amanda also sent multiple updates and pictures during our weekend away which made us feel at ease.

Danielle

Dani was a great housesitter. We have a total of 10 animals - 3 rambunctious Golden Retrievers, 5 very friendly cats, and 2 horses. It’s a lot to manage but Dani did a great job. Our dogs and cats received lots of love and attention. Dani kept us updated and sent lots of pictures. She even stepped in to medicate one of our cats! She was well-prepared for the sit - read all about the animals and knew who was who upon arrival! The house was clean and tidy when we got home as well! We highly recommend Dani as a house and pet sitter!

Lisa

Lisa was an incredible petsitter!! She provided great care for our babies while we were gone which included giving our cat medication twice daily and taking our dog on walks. We came back to our house looking just as we left it which we really appreciated as well. I would definitely trust her to watch our babies and home again in the future!!

Eric & Tenaya

Eric and Tenaya were awesome. They were very communicative and always responded quickly. This was both before and during the sit. They sent adorable pics of our boys during their stay as well. Anyone who has had someone watch their pets knows that not every can send a good pic of their pets! I’d definitely recommend them to others and would happily have them sit for us again!

Ashley

Ashley did such a wonderful job taking care of my home and 2 kitties while I was away! She was communicative, organized, responsive, and made me feel at ease trusting her with my home. The first night she stayed over one of my cats threw up after dinner (a stress habit) and the next day she fed her in smaller portions and watched over her to make sure she was ok, all without my prompting. When I came back, the apartment was perfectly clean and tidy, something I really appreciated! I would for sure book Ashley again if she is every in town :)

Lesley & Patrick

Lesley and Patrick were wonderful sitters for our big, energetic 3-year-old pup! The minute I spoke to them and met them I felt at ease about leaving them to take care of him and our home. They were very easy to communicate with and quick to respond, keeping us updated on their many outdoor adventures with great pictures. Our dog had a great time with them and immediately felt very comfortable. They also left the house in great condition, very clean with sheets in the washer. Would absolutely recommend them as sitters and have them back if our paths cross again in the future!

Sloane & Morgan

Was so easy connecting and communicating with Slogan throughout. Being overseas always adds a layer of concern but having Sloan care for our Fred kept me at ease. She and Fred connected from the first point of meeting. It was so lovely. I received photos from her of their walks and updates. I would recommend her to anyone needing their furry friend cared for.

Kea

Kea was wonderful. She sent updates daily. The house was in incredible condition and the dogs were very happy!

Candy

Candy and her family were amazing with my Sawyer. I got regular photo updates so I saw how he was doing. I knew from reports I got from neighbors that everything was ok and my dog was well taken care of, but it was nice to get photos. My house was immaculate clean when I got home and my boy looked great. Happy and healthy. I will definitely have them come back if the opportunity arises. Your pet and house is safe in their hands.

Angela

Angela watched our 2 doodles for 3 weeks. We could not of been happier with the service she provided. Even though it was her first “sit” she seemed to be an old pro in the business. She responded quickly to our messages. Pictures were sent almost daily which we appreciated. So, we feel comfortable in recommending her to others who need a responsible dog friendly person.

Jessica & Dan

I can’t say enough great things about Jessica! She took amazing care of my dog Mae, who can be a bit reactive around other dogs. Jessica knew exactly how to handle her, and it was such a relief knowing Mae was in capable hands. She even took Mae to the beach, which was a new activity for Mae. It was clear that Jessica really cared for my dog, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future! Highly recommend

Tonya

We could not have asked for a better zeewoi than Tonya. She was great with communication and it was clear that she loved our dog, Piper. Our home was immaculate when we returned and we look forward to asking her again in the future.

Sarah and Mark

Annie was awesome!!

From start to finish Annie was great. We're pretty new to zeewoi and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter to look after our little family. Communication from the start was clear, with dates and plans agreed well in advance. Prior to the sit, Annie was super organised and sent us a list of everything she needed to know to make sure the pets and house were fully cared for and emergencies were prepared for.

Annie arrived fully prepared and clearly experienced, she gave us a few handy hints that would make stays more straightforward for future sitters, and this was much appreciated as newbies!

Annie fulfilled and surpassed all expectations as a sitter. She knew exactly how to handle Jasper, who being a typical Labradoodle can be rather excitable and headstrong. He clearly enjoyed his time with Annie and she sent us daily messages letting us know all was well.

Overall, Annie made a special family get-together possible for us, and we're hugely grateful. Jasper wouldn't hesitate to spend another stay with Annie. She made quick friends with the neighbours, who were very complimentary, and we couldn't have asked for anything more. So down to earth and straight-forward, a real breath of fresh air. Thanks so much, you're welcome back anytime xx
