Cat Sitters in Dyker Heights, NY

Phoebe

I have nothing but incredible things to say about Phoebe! She was so communicative right from the start and even came by early to watch one of our feeding schedules and brought the kitties catnip and some fresh goods for us from the farm. She was so sweet and sent us a ton of cute photos and updates throughout the stay. We felt instantly at ease knowing that our kitties were in the best hands. She even took extra time to get our fickle cat Kei ti take her medicine every day. The house was so clean when we came back and the kitties even looked a little disappointed that it wasn't her coming back 😂 We would absolutely love to have her come back and stay in the future. 10/10! Highly recommend!

Hava

Hava was so professional, attentive and caring. I was so pleased that her and Oreo hit it off so well. I would love to have her come sit again. Highly recommended!!

Ami

Ami is such a lovely person! We clicked immediately when we had our video call; she is cheerful and kind. It’s also obvious that she really likes cats and she was very excited about spending time with puma and Mārgā. She sent regular updates the days I was away; on my return the house was perfectly tidy and puma and Mārgā looked happy and relaxed!

Heidi

Heidi was an attentive and kind sitter, sending great updates and taking excellent care of my two cats. I really appreciated how flexible she was with my arrival and departure times as well. She was self-sufficient and asked questions when needed, so I could ensure her stay was as comfortable as possible. I really enjoyed interacting with Heidi and would welcome her back as a sitter anytime! My home was tidy, and my cats happy and content, when I arrived back from my work trip. A+ care!

Jesna & Khari

Jesna and Khari were great! My pup was well cared for and my apartment was left very clean and tidy. I would definitely use them again!

Tityana

I knew we were in good hands when Tityana came by to pick up the keys and had clearly read the welcome guide and watched the videos. She made friends with the cats quickly -- even the one who usually hides out for a couple of days. She sent frequent updates with cute photos. We came home to an apartment at least as clean as we'd left it, and happy cats. We'd invite her back again.

Winnie & Pirashan

Winnie and her partner took good care of my dog, Lola, and my apartment. She communicated with me every day and sent pictures and updates. Lola got a little sick right before I left on a work trip and Winnie kept a close eye on her. I appreciate your time with Lola, Winnie!

Elizaveta

Recommend!

Niyanta

Niya and her partner were very friendly and took great care of our home and pets. Niya was prompt with communication and very self reliant. We would welcome her to sit again in the future!

Renata

Renata was responsive, and seemed to follow all our instructions. She sent lots of pictures, and left our place very clean and tidy! We are super happy to have met her.

Lisa

Lisa was very sweet. She left her place super early to be here before we left the house. My 8-year old dog is not easy, and we have a lot of rules. She unfortunately had to deal with his worst version: the tummy aching, bad mood dog. She stayed through the whole sit and took care of him like a pro.

Tayler

Tayler was great! She was very independent, and my cats were happy and relaxed when I returned.

Kirsty

Claire was the first house sitter that we have used through zeewoi, and so understandably we were a little anxious at the prospect of leaving our home and our dear dog Penny with a stranger; however after an initial phone call with Claire, my mind was instantly put at rest. Claire came across as friendly, reliable and obviously understood how we would be feeling about a first house sit; she asked all the right questions about what would be expected with Penny's routine and how she would be with someone she didn't know and about her medication. After we both agreed we would be happy to go ahead and we confirmed the sit, Claire arrived on time as planned on the day. We again felt huge relief as we left for the airport after we'd met Claire in person, as she seemed to gel with Penny straight away; we felt we got on very well and I could have happily sat chatting away all evening but we had to leave to catch our flight!
We were sent regular updates on Penny's various escapades during the weekend with some photos and a video and we felt Penny was very safe while we were away, but the updates were not over-bearing or too many.
Claire left the house clean and tidy as she found it, and although a plate got broken (which does not matter at all), Claire was honest and told us as soon as we had returned; we hugely appreciated the honesty. The bedding was washed and dried and the plants had been watered as requested.
We would definitely recommend Claire, and we hope she will be able to come back and house sit for us again in the future. We know that Penny got on well with Claire as when it was time for Claire to leave, Penny knew she was leaving and went to sit on her feet-her sign that she wants to be near you and doesn't want you to leave!
Thank you so much Claire!

Andrea

Sandrine & Brice were wonderful sitters for our 2 cats. They looked after them beautifully & left our house in spotless condition. Couldn’t have asked for better sitters ☺️
