Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Marlen was such a blessing. We had another sitter cancel just a week before our vacation date so I was so relieved that she was able to step in at such short notice. She came to meet our pups a few days in advance so they would recognize her. While we were away, Marlen sent picture updates and made sure the dogs were cared for. So glad to have found someone like her to help us out.
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.
Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.
We initially accepted Deirdre and Jason for a long stay to look after our dogs. We were very happy they accepted. A few weeks later we realized we needed another sitter for another trip we had planned. So, we posted more dates on zeewoi. To our happy surprise, Deirdre and Jason reached out to us saying they could also look after our dogs and home with the new dates we posted. This made our life much easier and we were very confident to have Deirdre and Jason stay longer with us and care for our dogs. We were definitely right!! D&J have countless experiences on zeewoi with very good reviews from all of their previous sits. They are very experienced with all aspects of a house/pet sitting. D&J are very self-sufficient, have the background knowledge and education of pet care, and most importantly a genuine love for all animals. This is most important for my wife and I. We knew from the first meeting with our pups they loved animals. Communication was excellent. The process before and during our sit was stress-free for us. We were given daily updates on our dogs including photos and videos. Any concerns D&J had were vocalized to us. D&J are also problem solvers and know how to react many challenging situations. Our routine for our pets was followed immaculately and all dogs were very happy and connected with them. Even our female dog Kinki grew close so quickly with D&J which is very rare. We had ZERO issues while we were gone and we were able to really enjoy our trip while we were away. The dogs definitely love being around D&J. Homecare: We are very pleased with the condition of our home when we returned. It was clean, free of clutter, and exactly how we had left it for them, if not even better! D&J even mowed our grass and took care of our yard! Our yard is not a small garden. It is very big and takes hours to mow. So we were very surprised and excited to know they did that for us even though it's not expected of our sitters!! They definitely went above and beyond what is expected. Our dogs are so very important to us. When we know we can trust our sitters it's the best feeling in the world. We definitely trust Deirdre and Jason with our most prized possessions and we look forward to the next sit with them in a few days!!! We can't thank them enough for giving our dogs the love and attention they deserve. We highly recommend Deirdre and Jason for your future sittings and you can always feel free to contact Izabela and I about D&J for additional verification from us. They are fantastic! Thanks so much Deirdre and Jason! -Allen and Izabela
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.
Katrina and her family were amazing house sitters who took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog is reluctant to go on walks with new people, but the entire family pitched in and found ways to take her to the park. Her daughter developed a particularly close bond with our dog. Katrina communicated us frequently and we always felt reassured by her messages. We returned from our long trip to a spotless home and a beautiful cake in the fridge. What more could you want!

My Yorkie Koko is 8. He has been a customer, loved , by the staff since he was 6 months old. They have taken the best care of him! You can trust your baby to them.
I have been taking my little guy here since he was a young puppy. He is always clean, happy, and nicely trimmed when I pick him up. He seems to be very comfortable here, walking around and interacting with the other dogs. I am away right now, so we went to another groomer. She was very complimentary of how well D by D had “table trained” him. The service is also great. I highly recommend D by D!
Our first time experience! My dogs groomer of many years past away and we have been going through many groomers that did not do a good job and my little guy hated them. He felt right at home with the ladies here. We will definitely be going back
My guys first time and these ladies did amazing!!
Great service, I called the day before wanting to get my dog groomed knowing it was short notice, they weren't able to do a full groom, but squeezed him in to give him a badly needed bath and nail trim! He's been groomed there before and they do a great job! Love these gals. Reasonable rates, and pleasant service along with a job well done.
I took my dog in to Dogs by Design and gave specific instructions on how I wanted her to be groomed and how not to be groomed. When I came to pick her up, the groom was nothing like I asked to be done. She was shaved to the skin in some areas and cut shorter than asked. I called back the next day to say I was disappointed in the groom and was told “she thought she did a good job”. They offered 50% off the next groom, but I will not be returning for a future service.
The people here are amazing! Melissa always does a great job and so does Camy! Very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend bringing your fur babies here. Good prices as well.
I have been taking my pups here since they opened and never had a complaint. They always do their best work at making my pups look so handsome! I appreciate how many times they have squeezed me in last minute :)
They were great with our puppy. Very kind people and they did exactly what we asked as far as his cut and at a reasonable price!!
We love Dogs by Design. They are extremely competent and professional. Our dogs look great and love going for grooming. We are lucky to have such a great service in Douglas!
Camp Saugapup is beyond our every hope for our dog. Diane and her team are naturally and deeply "dog-people". They love all dogs as much as we love ours. And it shows very genuinely. The setting is an amazing expanse of dog-park type space with mature trees, a sand pit, and a large temperature-controlled, furnished dog living room. Cleo comes home bathed and clean as well as happy and appropriately tired after a day of play and rest. Can't imagine a better situation for our dog. Six stars out of five.
Camp Saugapup has a professional and caring staff. I am impressed by the consistent adherence to routines, procedures, and attention to detail - all in the interest of dog safety. There is a huge, clean area for dogs to run, and a cozy indoor area with a sofa and places to rest. The knowledgable and thoughtful design of Camp Saugapup supports dogs and play and minimizes the potential for problems. We are newcomer campers (I have three dogs), but I am absolutely impressed. I never give a second thought or concern for the dogs' safety, welfare, or whether they are having fun. They ARE and they will be happily tired and sleep the rest of the day! Heaven! I would highly recommend Camp Saugapup!
Camp Saugapup is the best! Diane and her crew of canines are very welcoming. Besides Diane’s huge heart and love for dogs, the place is beyond amazing- the Four Seasons of pet care. She has cared for our child beast Harvey on numerous occasions. I’d highly recommend Camp Saugapup to anyone!!!
Everything about Camp Saugapup is genuinely amazing. Dog safety is number 1 priority. Dog fun is number 2. The care your dog receives while they're away at camp for the day will no doubt meet or exceed your expectations, they become part of the Camp Saugapup family. The owner of Camp Saugapup is unbelievably dog savvy and cares about all dogs and insuring they have great doggie adventures in a doggie safe environment. Send your dog to camp! You won't regret it, and I know they'll love it.
My dog Jace loves Camp Saugapup! The space is amazing there, and I have no doubt the the owner, Diane has my dogs best interest at heart! Between the sand digging pit and the pool, and the acreage of land for him to run and play.... so much fun for him and I don't feel bad that he's just sitting at home! I would recommend Camp Saugapup to everyone!!!
One-of-a-kind dog daycare where the pups play safely free in a large, beautiful park-like setting (under supervision) yet importantly get down time to rest as well. They treat like family and bonus star for dogs sent home clean!
It was good until it was bad. My dog was acting out and I didn’t know. Zero communication or partnership. It came up when they decided to be closed on all Fridays for the summer with only 3 days notice! (Often don’t have staff and will close “for safety”, but just don’t count on them to be open 100% of when they say they will.) Seem to be friendly but don’t share the dog’s experience. When I began to ask questions, they had several issues about my dog that I had never experienced with her. When I challenged their approach they said I could get my money back. Then at a high point in the conversation they said they would “love” to have her stay, but when I replied I wanted a day to think about it, they got personal to me and said I was misinformed (how can I be when they don’t tell me anything?) and basically kicked us out. May be a positive experience for some dogs but would NOT recommend for a working breed or demanding younger dog.
Great staff, and a very happy place for Nutmeg, a new "client" I pet sit for. The staff is great with both young and senior dogs, giving them the personal attention they need for their age range.
Phenomenal day care experience for our pup. He came back happy, washed and tired from a full day of playing with other dogs. Diane, and her staff, are great to work with.
The best place in the area to take your dog. Staff is excellent and my dog sam loves it!!
My dogs are like my babies and Dog's Bay is the only place I trust caring for them when I can't take them on vacation with me. I boarded my Rat Terriers Emma & Mr. Darcy there when they were alive, and today I just picked up my precious Pomsky Ripley. If you want dog people who love spoiling dogs to watch over your fur baby I highly recommend Dog's Bay. The staff is amazing! They listen, they're thorough, they're knowledgeable, and they genuinely care about your dog. On their Facebook page they post pics of the dogs in their care on a daily basis so you can constantly check up on how your dog is doing. Let's face it, as a dog person you know by your baby's body language how they're feeling about a place or person. This time I could tell Ripley was having fun, just like my Ratties used to. The peace of mind is priceless! Ripley and I give them a 10 out of 10.
I took my two dogs here for the first time when we went on vacation this month and they were very tired when we picked them up! They kept could track of everything, including how much they were eating, and their behavior during play. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and we will be returning customers.
I LOVE this place! They have transformed my incorrigible 11 month old puppy! Pretty proud of her graduating "Pup Cub" school! Can't wait to start "Pup Scout" school. They are caring, kind, considerate and the list goes on!!
This was our first time boarding our dog & he loved it! They took a lot of care when acclimating new dogs to the group play and making sure the overall experience was great for our dog and us. Would definitely board here again.
We were beyond pleased with our experience and the wonderful staff at Dog’s Bay. Miss Penny loved all of the belly rubs, her warm bed, and play time with her new friends. They were flexible and let her stay overnight when we couldn’t make it in time for pickup, sent us updates each time we asked for one, and even sent us home with a goodie bag! Thank you for taking such good care of our fur-kid! We will definitely be back!
I brought 2 of my dogs here for grooming and was so happy with the results! Poppy and Georgia look so much better. They came together and it only took just under 3 hours for both of them. Abby, their groomer was so sweet and caring with my Husky girls. They were long overdue for grooming and were probably 5 pounds lighter when we left.
We have boarded our dogs here a few times now and it's been a great experience. The staff is friendly and organized, and our dogs are excited to play when we pull up to the facility. We trust them with our girls when we leave town and know they will be well taken care of.
We always board our dog, Archie, here when we go on vacation. They take such good care of our baby and really treat him like a member of the family. We always feel good knowing that he’s going to get to play with his doggy friends and not be stuck in a crate all day long. Big thanks to the Dog’s Bay team for their hard work, time and care.
We love this place. They love on and take great care of our dogs
I have been taking my dogs to Dogs Bay for over 15 years to board, and 2-3 times a week for doggie daycare. I trust them completely with the happiness and safety of my fur kids. The play areas are both indoor and out, and when out, they are not on artificial grass or concrete. They are out in nature, playing in sand boxes, taking nature walks, having pool parties in the summer. My dogs are beyond excited to pull down that drive. Owner Deb goes over and beyond to make sure her customers are happy and satisfied. The employees are all so pleasant, and their love for the dogs there shines through - many of them have been there for years and I consider them friends. Thank you, Deb and team, for providing happiness for my fur kids and peace of mind for me!
