Cat Sitters in Cochituate, MA

Connor & Roberta

wonderful as always

Christine

This was the second time that Christine and Phil have been our zeewoi. First time was last winter when it was white and cold and this time it was full summer. They are fantastic people with good communication and perfect caregivers for our cats. The experience could not be better.

Jean & Alan

Jean was absolutely wonderful . She flew in a day early to meet us and spend time with Mookie our Boxer . Jean gave us daily updates and pictures . She walked Mookie and gave him lots of attention and love . Our home was just the way we left it and everything was attended too . Her communication before , during and after our trip was excellent. Jean left a lovely “ Thank You “ card with truffles and homemade cookies . I would highly suggest Jean , as your zeewoi .

Eleanor

Eleanor looked after Pip whilst we went to USA for our daughters weeding. Pip was less than a year old so we were quite anxious to find the right person. Pip was well looked after by the couple and in extremely good condition when we got back after 2 weeks away. It was obviously also from the WhatsApp messages and photos that they looked after her extremely well.

Harry

Harry is top notch. Takes care of business without any issues, takes extra care of our pet with some grooming and lap time. This is our second time with Harry, ready to book him again.

Maureen

Maureen was a pleasure to work with from the start. She communicated well with us and tok excellent care of our home and two cats. She is very neat and considerate. A++ sitter highly recommended

Megan

Megan was a great sitter for Charlie! She sent us lots of updates and photos throughout her stay and I felt like our baby was in good hands the whole time she was watching him. Would love to have her petsit again!

Miranda

Loved having Miranda taking care of Dante. She was kind, reliable, and very playful with my young dog. She is a wonderful and energetic person and a great communicator. I highly recommend her.

Kasey

Kasey and Alejandro were the perfect house sitters and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone! My kitties were happy and chill when I got home, the place was clean, and all was good in the hood. Kasey was very reliable and an excellent communicator both before and during the sit, asked all the right questions, and sent great pictures each day. I had total peace of mind and knew that the cats were very well cared for. I will definitely ask them to sit for me in the future and I hope they are available!

Kathryn

Kathryn was amazing and I already have her coming back in a few weeks! My house was SO tidy when we got home. She even folded towels and laundry that had already been in the dryer. She got along great with Kevin and had no problem giving him his medication. Can't recommend having her house sit for you enough!

Rachel

Rachel sat for our two dogs and two kittens for our first post Covid vaccine trip! We had planned to be away for 6 days, and advertised the sit as such, but then after Rachel had accepted, we realized we could take a few extra days if she was able to stay longer. And being the flexible person she is, Rachel agreed to the change of plans. She was attentive to the pets (we could tell how much they liked her right off the bat), send texts and pictures almost daily to update us on feeding, walks, etc. She took the dogs to their favorite walking trails in her car several times, which was most kind. I was extremely impressed with the consideration and care she gave both us and our home. In a phone call the day before we were due home she asked if she could go into our “wing” of the house to check for any surprises that the kittens might have left and she mentioned some scratches that she’d noticed on a door frame and worried they might have been caused during her stay. I reassured her they were the work of other cats who are no longer with us, and was impressed with her thoroughness and concern for our home. She was communicative, neat, left the house as clean as she found it, and took excellent care of all our pets. I recommend her without reservation. Thank you Rachel for your TLC to both pets and home! We will welcome you back any time.

Tyler

I so appreciated Tyler. He was very pleasant to work with, quick to respond and easy to set up a zoom house tour. Our animals and house were in great shape following his visit. He gets extra stars for flexibility. Our plans changed and we came home a day early (letting him know of course.) Tyler was willing to switch sleeping rooms and joined our family for dinner. Very enjoyable man and I'd happily have him again.

Holly

It was a pleasure having Conrad and Deborah house sit our property and look after our mischievous 1 year old puppy and few chickens. Our pup Stevie was well looked after and we received updates of the walks and activities they took her on. 

Conrad was very prompt at replying and asked good questions to ensure they were able to provide the right care.

The property was well looked after and left very clean and tidy. We would invite Conrad and Deborah to house sit again if we need and would recommend them to others.

Thanks, Holly, Ryan and Stevie

Miruna

We were fortunate to meet Barbara and Roland. They are kind, lovely, and respectful people and it was a pleasure spending a little time in their company.

From the get-go, communication was pleasant and smooth and we felt perfectly at ease leaving our fur babies and house into their care. They are both experienced pet and housesitters and approach their entrusted tasks with enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility. They showed a lot of interest in understanding our cats' routine and asked a lot of questions meant to clarify all the details of the sit. 

During our week away, we were spoiled with daily detailed updates (text and photos), something we appreciate a lot. 

On the day of our return, Barbara cooked a lovely dinner for all of us, it was a treat and another opportunity to spend a bit of quality time with them.

We found Gluino and Nacho in great shape (Nacho had a small medical issue and Barbara and Roland took great care of him!) and the house spotless. Our gratitude goes towards both Barbara and Roland and we can only highly recommend them as pet and housesitters. We would welcome them back anytime!
