Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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
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.

Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Claire
I have nothing but great things to say about Jill! She’s a wonderful sitter and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her capable hands while I was out of the country. She was thorough in making sure she knew exactly what each pet needed, had excellent communication, and provided me with daily updates. I came home to a house that was even tidier and more organized than when I left and two very loved pets. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a kind, caring, consistent pet sitter. Thank you so much Jill!!!
Katrina
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!

I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail. First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own. Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see. Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back. I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site! Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!
Kathryn
Linda was an awesome pet sitter for my doggie Brodie! She gave him so much loving attention… he has some separation anxiety at 9 years old & she never left his side! She was so attentive to him & I am very grateful for that! Linda’s communication was also something I liked… we texted & chatted on the phone before her arrival & I felt very comfortable with her being in my home & with my dog. I could tell her number one reason to pet sit was her love for dogs & desire to be a wonderful companion for Brodie while I was away for the weekend! Would love to have her back anytime…
Laurie
Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !! She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !
Beth
Jessica was so rad. I wish she could be our go-to sitter for all our travel. Came over for an in-person orientation, took great care of house and pets and seamless communication. Thank you, Jessica!
Marcia
Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat. He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care. Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!
Melissa
For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high. We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything. Melissa and Kyle

Bonnie and her kennel are absolutely amazing. She has always been so good to us, even when we have had emergencies and called her the day before. The kennels are clean and she genuinely cares for the dogs while they are there. There is plenty of room to run and play. She will always be our first choice.
Brought my dog here for an extended weekend as my family and I went on vacation. I was recommended to bring her here from a coworker and so happy I did! She seemed well taken care of and was so sleepy when we arrived home. Thank you Bonnie! 😊 …
We always feel so confident taking our dogs here. Bonnie is a very caring person. Very clean kennel and we know they will be well cared for.
We have been boarding our golden retriever here for four years whenever we have a long family vacation. They treat him well, as you can tell from his reactions both arriving (happy) and leaving (a little sad). The prices are quite affordable, too.
This lady is awesome! Kennels are clean and dogs have a nice play area.
Excellent.....the food is ALWAYS excellent. The guys in the kitchen are OUTSTANDING!! We always assume to wait for a table but it's worth it.
Love Bonnie. My dogs always come home happy

Tom and Val of the Pet Buddy Service are the "best." I have used their service for a number of years and have nothing but great things to say. My dogs are so happy to be at home while I am away because they know Tom will be here to play, feed and love them, especially my old girl Charlie. He is patient and understanding of all the dogs needs, is an excellent communicator and extremely trustworthy! If you need pet care the Pet Buddy Service is the way to go! Highly recommend!!!!
The Pet Buddy Service is simply AMAZING!!! We’ve been using them 2 years now on a regular basis. We have been gone 1 day up to a week at a time. We are so happy we found them for our dogs and guinea pigs. We travel often and with them we can actually enjoy vacation knowing our pets are in great care! Our pets get fed, taken out, go on walks and have snuggles. Our dogs have high anxiety so it’s nice they can stay in their own home. Their communication is stellar! One of the things we love most are the texts and pics at each visit of our pets. Our pets love them and so do we! We won’t travel unless we have The Pet Buddy Service! Highly recommend! 🐾 🐶
This was my first time leaving my dog home alone while going out of town. He’s old and takes medication for congestive heart failure so traditional boarding wasn’t an option. Tom and Valerie were amazing! They sent daily picture updates, took him on walks and handled his meds. One of the days he was being a butthead and wouldn’t come from under the bed. I was nervous I was going to have to get a family member to go get him but Tom and Valerie managed it. I was able to have a great vacation and knew my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend them if you need pet sitters!!
My dog is 3 years old and I have done business with The Pet Buddy Service since my dog was a puppy! They are so kind, reliable, and trustworthy. They spoil my dog - to be honest, my dog probably likes them more than she likes me! :) They send me a photo of her every single time they come to take care of her! I would highly recommend this service to anybody who wants their pet taken care of with the utmost love. (Below is one of the photos they sent to me)
Tom and Valerie are fantastic. When they are pet sitting, I enjoy my time away without worry because I know my furbabies are in good hands. They are terrific about sending updates on my pets, and they take care of my home as well by checking the mail and watering plants when needed. I have used a few different pet sitters over the years; The Pet Buddy Service is by far the best!
I used Pet Buddy for the first time for my 13 year old dog when I went on an 11 day vacation last week. For the last two years I didn't leave her for more than a few hours so I was very nervous leaving for so long. I didn't need to worry because Tom and Valerie took such good care of her I don't think she missed me! They spent a lot of time with her each visit, handled meds and her special needs, and sent me tons of pictures so I wouldn't worry. I highly recommend Pet Buddy Service!
I am so happy with this service. After boarding my two dogs for my last trip I decided to have pet sitters come in and care for the dogs plus my cat. So much better, no worries about picking them up from a boarder and last time they were boarded my older dog could barely walk even though he was with senior dogs it was too much. He needed steroids to get him better. Keeping them home was stress free for them and me. This service sends pics and updates with every visit. GREAT, GREAT SERVICE!!!
Always our complete pleasure to be able to count on Pet Buddy to take care of our dogs. Professional and personal touch is awesome! Very comfortable and confident to leave them in their care! Truly! M & B
Tom and Valerie take excellent care of our dog and help us immensely! They're very trustworthy and our dog loves his visits with Tom!
Definitely recommend Pet Buddy 💗 Tom and Valerie are so nice and took great care of my cat! Getting pictures and updates was very reassuring as a first-time pet owner, and I would definitely use their services again! …
