Cat Sitters in Dunham Hollow, NY

alice

Alice was super helpful, taking care of Xabat and our home with short notice. She is thoughtful and tidy and we are grateful!

Molly & Lee

Molly and Lee knew exactly how to be over the top sitters. The house and Tabby were well taken care of. I was pleased to know that they embedded with our community and staff. Additionally, Molly and Lee were able to explore beautiful St. Lucia to learn of why it is so great to live here. Mary and I look forward to their return next year. Molly and Lee, job well done. I appreciate the work on the lawns, absolutely beautiful.

Carole

Carol's communication was excellent and she was a reliable sitter whom I was very grateful to have come and take care of my two dogs. She was kind, attentive, and asked questions when needing more information. She was a delight!

Patti

Patti and Steve were awesome pet & house sitters! Our cat & dog were treated like family, and they left our house immaculate! They were extremely flexible with our changing dates on the back end of our travel which was so appreciative and made our vacation more relaxed. I highly recommend Patti & Steve and hope they will come back and sit for us again!

Bernard & Michelle

Jerry and Michelle are so great! From viewing their profile and reviews, I knew our dogs would be in great hands while we were out of town. Communication was smooth and reliable throughout the whole process, from the initial zoom to when we made it back to our respective homes. During the house tour on the first day of the visit, we were very comfortable and got along great. We received photos of the pups each day, usually with funny captions and usually with the dogs under their blankets. The house was super tidy when we got back, and we appreciated the fresh sheets after our 9-hour drive home. We would not hesitate to have Jerry and Michelle come back again - hopefully with nicer weather next time!

Alix

I left my 2 cherished old kitties with Alix for 6 weeks and felt assured they’d be in good hands after Alix stopped by to meet us. Alix sent photos which clearly showed how comfortable they were with her. She reminded me when supplies needed reordering in a timely way. The apartment was neat and clean when I got home and the kitties were groomed, relaxed, and happy. Strongly recommend. Thank you Alix!

BJORN

We highly recommend Bjorn as a pet and house sitter. We have used Bjorn several times to take care of our 3 dogs, cat, chickens, and large homestead. He is wonderful. The animals all love him and are excited every time they see him. Not only was the pet care wonderful, he shared lots of love and play which each of them individually. He sent us texts and photos, asked questions when he needed to, and he left the house even cleaner than when he arrived. He is a very kind and trustworthy human and we feel lucky to have him watch our home and pets.

Kristin

We feel SO lucky to have found Kristin!!! She was so kind to sit for us very last minute as the other person we got on zeewoi fell through. She was extremely flexible to come the night that she landed from an international flight and stay the night before we left and even dropped us off at the airport in the morning. She is incredibly self sufficient and was even able to fix an issue that our automated litter box had. That being said, she was great about sending updates with pictures so we felt very at ease for the week we were gone. Our babies are not the easiest to take of sometimes but she never complained and they seemed to have a great time with her!! The cherry on top of everything was how clean she left our house including cleaning the sheets, towels and blankets. It was above and beyond what we expect from any pet sitter and made it so nice that we found our house exactly how we left it, if not cleaner. There is so much more I could say about how kind and detailed she is, just overall a fantastic person and we would love to have Kristin back anytime!! If you get her as an applicant, definitely make sure you secure her as your sitter!

Megan

Megan was great! Very communicative - took great care of our house and pups. We appreciated the changes in their schedule they made to get on schedule with our older, set in their way pups.

Linda

We were so glad Linda came to sit with Pepper. She agreed at the last minute to sit for us and drove a very long way to get here. She had a lot of flowers to water because of the drought here and they all looked very happy when we got home. The house was in order and Pepper was happy. I was very thankful that she didn't mind buying more food for pepper because at the last minute I realized we didn't have enough for the week. I would love to have her again.

Keri & Aaron

Keri and Aaron were kind enough to come for a visit a couple of days before the start of their sit. During the sit, They sent regular updates and pictures, and all seemed to go well.

Catherine & Larry

Cathy and Larry were wonderful sitters. Communicative and accommodating. My apartment was left as clean as I left it, and my kitties were exhausted and relaxed when I got home. I highly recommend them !

Gail and John

For ten days Tegan looked after our cat who is terminally ill with a malignant tumour in his intestine which had spread.  He needed a lot of care, attention and love.  She have him his pills twice a day and fed him little and often and kept him company.  She could not have taken better care of him than if he had been her own cat.  After she had gone he kept standing outside the bedroom door where she had slept obviously looking for her and missing her.  Thanks to her we still have our cat and hope to have him for a few more weeks yet.  I would recommend her to anyone.

Kara

Andy and I were incredibly grateful to have Marie as our housesitter. This was our first time away from our 8 french bulldog puppy, Potato. We were a bit nervous since this was Potato's first time away from us as well. Marie was an amazing housesitter! She met with us and Potato a week beforehand to familiarize herself with Potato's routine and needs. 

The day that we departed, she arrived at our apartment early to make sure Potato would be looked after. Throughout our time away, Marie kept sending us updates on Potato's well-being. She sent us regular messages and pictures (they were adorable). These thoughtful gestures provided us peace of mind, knowing that Potato was well cared for and receiving an abundance of love and attention. When we returned back home, Marie left our apartment clean and in impeccable condition. 

We wholeheartedly recommend Marie as a house sitter to anyone seeking a trustworthy, responsible, and loving individual to care for their furry family members. Her exceptional help and genuine passion for animals have left an indelible mark on our hearts. We will not hesitate to reach out to Marie for future house sitting needs, knowing that Potato will be in the best of hands.
