This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.

Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!

We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!

Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Adrienne
We loved Misty!!!! She was absolutely the most perfect baby sitter for our dog and an amazing short term tenant at our house. Not only did she keep the house clean but she even washed everything she used before we got home. We even got a couple gifts from her. She is such a sweet human, kept in contact with us while we were gone and sent videos of the hikes and walks they went on. I would 100% ask her to stay at our house 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.

Nicole and Gabriel were excellent house sitters and we would highly recommend them to anyone. Our dog absolutely loved them and she was spoilt rotten. The house, pool and yard were kept clean and well looked after. On a personal note we also found both of them interesting and great conversationists.

Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!

The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

The only petsitting company I will use. I absolutely love the client portal, which makes it incredibly easy to schedule care, make payments, and receive updates. The sitters are incredibly responsive, and I do appreciate the fact that multiple sitters are available to ensure coverage. Your care for our fur babies is appreciated!!
I am extremely happy with the service I received. During the normal course of pet sitting I received constant updates by text, along with pictures, I never had to wonder if someone was there while I was away on vacation. On the later part of my vacation, one of our dogs fell very ill, and the sitter assigned to us went well far beyond our expectations, taking our dog to the vet, picking up medication and administering it, and even cooking a special meal recommended by the vet in their own home and bringing it to him. Simply amazing.
Absolutely love the team. I’ve had Katie and her team sit my dogs and cats for years. I trust them, and they treat my pets like their own. All my pets love Katie and her team. I’ve had pets who have had serious medical issues, and I’ve never worried while I’ve been gone knowing they’d receive all their meds and top level care.
Katherine is absolutley incredible at what she does! She loves animals and it shows! This was our 1st time leaving our puppy and we felt so comfortable knowing he was getting cared for by Katherine. She updates you a few times a day and makes you feel at ease knowing your fur baby is in good hands. I'm ready to plan another trip away, so Oliver can have another great time with his friends and Katie! She is the best out there!!
Claws and Paws pet sitting, they are an amazing group! I have been using their services for a couple of years. They are very caring and always professional. From pet sitting to monthly nail clips they always impress!!!
Katie is fantastic. My boy absolutely loves his friend Katie. It makes my day when she sends me photos or videos of him during the day. She has taken excellent care of him when I’ve had to go out of town for the night or a weekend. I feel better knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter or walker for their fur baby!
We were absolutely thrilled with Claws and Paws Pet Sitting. The communication was spot-on. Their pricing was reasonable. Most importantly, Cass provided excellent care for our two elderly dogs while we were away. We intend to use their services repeatedly.
Where do I begin, Katie is amazing.. she is reliable, helpful, reasonable in price and is always available for any questions. I HIGHLY recommend her pet services. I found her before I even got my dog and she made the working life with a pet a lot easier on my heart. Thank you Katie!
Everyone with claws and paws has been nothing short of amazing. Quick responses, they do their best to fit me in if I need it last min! They always take such good care of my animals and always send me pictures when I’m away and missing my babies! 10/10 recommend.
Katie is the BEST!!! We have a very difficult cat and Katie went above and beyond to accommodate. Our cat has anxiety problems and is afraid of everything, he runs and hides from strangers. She was able to get him to come out of hiding. She sent videos and updates while we were gone. We give Katie 10 stars because 5 is not enough. Will definitely be using Claws and Paws in the future.

We’ve been taking our dogs here for many years. Blue Rock provides great care for our dogs when we are not able to have them with us. They are very friendly and even provide pictures of the dogs on their Facebook page so you can see your dog even when you’re away. I would definitely recommend Blue Rock Kennel for boarding your dog.
We have a largebreed dog,that never been boarded.we were very nervous 😓. Mrs Cathie,was amazing,she sent pictures of our fur baby which helped with our separation anxiety. BRK,is clean,air-conditioned and dogs have space and a large area to get yard time! Wish I could give 6 stars. …
I love miss Kathy. My dog's like miss Kathy. I would recommend this place to anyone. Your dog will be loved cared for if I lots of room to run around. I just love her. She is the best. The only place I will go if she doesn't have a space available. Then my vacation will be canceled.,
Cathie is awesome and takes great care of my fur baby when I'm away. Highly recommend.
I recently boarded my German Shepherd who has health issues and is anxious as a result. The owners of this boarding kennel were more than willing to give Myla the extra attention and special handling that she needed and she seemed to love it there. She even gave one of the owners a little lick which is not her usual style. I truly appreciate the level of care Blue Rock offers and will definitely book again in the future. Thank you Blue Rock!
If anyone is looking for a place to board your dog, look no further because BRK is the place! We have boarded our dog many times and have always known she was going to be well taken care of. BRK is full of love, not only for the dogs, but the owners as well! We are so blessed to have you take care of our Lucy 💕 …
My dogs were never kenneled my husband forbid our dogs to be kenneled, we planned a vacation and looked around for a kennel for our 2 dogs. After visiting numerous kennels we settled on blue rock. When we dropped them off we were all sad even the grand kids but after getting regular updates and seeing how happy they were our vacation was great. We were assured they were in good hands planning another vacation this year. Thank you blue rock.
They were able to add on days very last minute before my days already booked. Fantastic place for the pups! Lily and Puppasito looked like they had a blast on the pictures they posted daily on fb. Definitely made it less stressful while we were away!
After 9 years, we were faced with boarding our dog while we went on vacation. In the past she had always stayed with family or close friends in her own home. What struck me when looking at Blue Rock Kennel was the family atmosphere, limited amount of dogs and their willingness to help me by sending daily photos, etc. All this for an extremely reasonable fee! We will definitely be returning to Blue Rock Kennel!
We had a wonderful experience with BRK. It was amazing to see the daily pictures. I will use BRK exclusively going forward and highly recommend them for my fellow pet lovers!

We took Romo there today for the first time. We have definitely found our new groomer. They were polite, professional and did an amazing job. They were even able to do his nails ( he's never cooperated before )
There are always such friendly staff that offer great customer service. They always make sure to get your pet in as soon as possible, don’t take too long to groom your pet, and do an awesome job grooming! I have a guiena pig that tends to have lots of hair and needs it trimmed frequently, A Natural Paw always trims him up neat and tidy! I also usually get a bath for him as he sometimes can get a little smelly and when I come back to pick him up, he smells so clean! I’ve only been here two times so far, but I most definitely will be coming back plenty more! I highly recommend giving this place a try!
It's a great place to have your dog's nails done and so forth. Very nice folks who are understanding with large, rambunctious puppies.🐕 …
Took our mixed Yorkie for a cut and teeth cleaning. When we pick Loki up, not only did he look great but that bad breath was completely gone. They even fitted him with a flea collar at no charge. Tiffany is great! Man,I hope I got her name right.. she's definitely our groomer from this day forward. If your in Smyrna, I recommend A Natural Paw.
I would give no stars if I could. They cut my 10 year old poodle where he has bare spots on his legs and back. Worst cut he ever had. Owner said that is the way they do it. Beware and do not go to A Natural Paw in Smyrna De. Nasty job- no accountability and they charge a lot for it. If you love your dog do not take them there.
I brought my Pomeranians to A Natural Paw on Saturday, April 29. It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed Cooper’s ears were sloppy and uneven. Later that night, I felt a big mat behind Parker’s ears. I also found that neither had been brushed and both of their paws had the same erratic pattern as their ears. Additionally, their fur was uneven around their bodies. Spots were missed and some areas weren’t trimmed. Im very disappointed and won’t be back.
I love this place! I rescued a poor cute little dog who has fluffy, curly fur that was matted to the point that it was painful for him to be touched, and the people at this place took such good care of him and now he's my little happy and healthy, handsome man!!
We take our boys here every month and they do a wonderful job.
After a friend of mine told me of a few good experiences here, I took my Whiskey girl for her 2nd ever grooming. She’s about 10 mo. Old and a bit timid, despite her big goofy size. She seemed to take to the crew pretty well and was returned to me smelling great and in good spirits. She had nice, short nails and a pretty pink bow. She was happy, happy! I will definitely be returning when she’s due for it and would absolutely recommend others to give them a try as well!
I took my Shihpoo there and he has had some bad grooming experiences where he wouldn’t let anyone groom him. I took my Roman to natural Paw and they were able to groom him completely with no issues! I am so grateful for them. This is Roman forever groomers! 5 plus stars from me!!

Who gives sound advice eith behavioral issues..Paw stars also has affordable grooming services with filtered water and all natural allergy free products. 😀..They do it all..

I couldn’t have a better babysitter to take care of my furry baby. She is always happy to spend time with Mary and her family. They are always doing something with the dogs taking them for hikes or just in the creek . ❤️
Absolutely amazing, reliable and trustworthy. Takes great care and excercises dogs. So wonderful knowing while we are gone our pups are safe and being taken care of.
This is the best pet sitting I have ever had. My dog was well fed and happy when I came back. When I came back my house was flawless. I do recommend.
Clicked website but it's downloading all advertisements. Never got to the website so I didn't bother after trying couple times.

We have worked with Julie and her team for more than three years. They have been consistently excellent with our dog and very reliable in terms of pick up and drop off arrangements. It is clear that they have spoiled our dog every time we pick him up!
My older doodle has boarded w Julie’s families for several years w good success. Her families are carefully vetted. Also important to me is that Julie checks on the dog’s well being throughout the duration of the stay.
We have used Dog Boarding with Families (DBF) multiple times and at multiple local locations (eg Wayne) in the past 6 months. We have had a great experience from everything to pre-meeting our host families to logistics including drop off, pick up and payment. More importantly our dog has received great care and adjusted well with the families. We highly recommend their services!!
What a great experience ! We had to go out of town and I was so stressed out because our usual dog sitter was on vacation, I called Julie because I needed someone the next day , Julie was so helpful she found us someone right away, she paired our dog Millie with Judy who was also absolutely amazing , Millie stayed with with Judy for three nights. I would definitely recommend Julie and her team , thank you so much Julie
Julie and her team are not only professionals they are true animal lovers. Our sitter Alex went out his way to make our shy dog comfortable! Our house was kept clean and organized and our pets were calm and happy when we got home!!
Boarding with a family is a great place for your fur babies. Our puppy max loves to go there!
Julie has been helping me find a friendly, loving, comfortable home for my dog Rocky for the past six years. It makes taking a trip so easy. I never worry about Rocky when we are out of town. He is cared for just as he would be in his own home. He has stayed with a few different families over the past years and each one has been wonderful! Sharing lots of pictures and letting him snuggle next to them on the couch just like he enjoys doing with us at home. Julie knows what she is doing and offers a valuable service!
We are very happy with the family Julie placed us with. We continue to drop off our dog, Boomer, with them when we travel. We have gone on 3 trips and have already booked them for a trip in September. The family is very nice and takes great care of Boomer. We highly recommend Julie and her boarding business.
Wow! This experience for our family was amazing! Julie was thorough with matching my pup with such a fitting family. Process was easy with great communication. I received pictures of my pup living his best life. It was such an easy process with no stress. Definitely recommend!
The best boarding option for your dog. Our dog Boris has stayed multiple times and it’s a relief to be able to go away knowing he is in excellent hands. By staying in a loving home with outdoor space and sometimes other furry friends to hand out with we know he is having a wonderful time. He loves it so much it’s like a vacation for the dog! I highly recommend.

Baby chicken fever!!! Paul was so helpful and let me place custom baby chick orders in advance and I was able to get fancy and colored egg layers. Everyone was super helpful at the counter and at the shop, and we got everything we needed for our flock.
we love getting chicks from here! they do have everything to offer for any of your pet needs, my daughter loves looking at their indoor bird and bunny selection! we travel an hour to get here and it’s always well worth the trip.
Owners and staff are great. Prices are competing with big brands
I love this little shop! Everyone is so helpful and friendly, prices are great, and there is a great selection.
Very nice small business with a great selection of food and items for pets.
My husband Mike bought all his chicks, food, supplies as well as our dog food. Sadly Mike passed away in March. We had bought gift certificates for Mike at Christmas to begin over after a medical incident happened and we had to rehome the chickens. I asked Paul if we could still use the gift certificates. He said absolutely and shared stories of when Mike would come in to order new chicks or to get food. Thank you Paul and staff for your kindness to Mike and to me. I appreciate how you always make us feel welcome. Visit once and you will not want to go anywhere else for your pet supplies. Connie Miller
They have everything and deliver large bags of pet food to your car. It's my go to pet supply store.
Absolutely love this small business! I purchased a rabbit from here two years ago and he is thriving! They usually have a nice assortment of small animals- including bunnies, hamsters & guinea pigs. They also have finches and parakeets for sale and an assortment of fish & lizards. And of course equipment and everything related to said animals. They also have chicks for sale, which I saw on their fb page. Please support this local small business!
My boyfriend and I are always going to be customers of our friendly neighborhood pet store!!! I love going in and seeing all the critters whether they have fur/feathers or otherwise it's always a great experience and they are very nice and helpful when you have questions about your animals. I have purchased chickens/lizards/hamsters and also birds and I have never been disappointed or treated with anything other than great people, awesome animals and great merchandise. 👍Thanks so much
Nice store. Not much bad to say really, the pet food is sold at good prices. Only complaint is that the rabbits are in a very small cage, hopefully they are not in there 24/7. Apparently their mice are normally sold as food, but I went for pets and they were all white. This isn't a complaint, I was just wondering if you could get some variation? But really nice workers, small, but not too small of a store. Comfortable, I felt welcomed and it was a nice little store for your pets or to shop to get pets.
