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 & Nataki
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 & Thomas
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 & Susan
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.

Elizabeth
Kelly was a wonderful pet sitter and house sitter! Our dog Cooper adored her. She sent us pictures several times a day and he was always snuggling with her. She kept in touch with us regularly. We have never left our baby before and we were anxious about it but we ended up feeling totally comfortable with Cooper in Kelly’s care. She also kept our potted plants alive during a heat wave and took great care of the house. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Ann
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
Kate
Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.
Laura
Davis and Sydney were loving sitters for our pets. We even had an extra cat (our son's) and they took great care of all of the pets and our home. The pictures and the comments they sent showed us they figured out all of their quirky personalities very fast. It was nice to come home to a clean house and all pets were safe and happy! We would ask them back again.

Carolina was a fantastic Pet sitter. From the beginning, it was straightforward to communicate with her. She met us before we left our trip and ensured she understood all the house and pet logistics. Luna and Cal were very comfortable with her and were best friends with her fast. She was very affectionate with them, and Luna and Cal loved her and were very happy with her. Carolina was very responsive and sent updates. She was really lovely and easy to communicate with. She was very respectful of our space and very tidy. She even washed the sheets and towels she used even when she didn’t need to. She put a lot of care into caring for Luna and Cal, and they looked very comfortable with her. Having Carolina as a pet sitter made our trip very easy, knowing our pets were cared for so well. We would love to have her back to sit for us again and highly recommend her.

We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

Jeremy and Brooke were fantastic! We have a senior dog and a over hyper pittie. They gave Daisy her meds and had lengthy walks with Fin to burn off some of his energy. Brooke sent me regular texts to show me precious pictures of the pups by the Christmas tree, which warmed my ❤️. The house looked great when we returned. They are awesome detailed sitters and will make your pets feel loved and secure!!

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith

Gowri was very patient and caring with Irisi who got sick the day before I left. I cannot commend her enough for how she rose to the occasion and took care of my baby. She even pick up meds from the vet. My cat, Squinty, was very comfortable with her to jump in bed and wake her up early in the morning (as he would with me). I am not aware of him doing that to other sitters that have stayed at my place. I would give her 6 stars for Pet care if I can! She updated me with Irisi's condition which really help ease my mind, knowing someone looking after my furry really cared. I would certainly have her back again!

My dog Roxy loves going there. She is starting to get the hang of things there and interacting more which has been very helpful. The staff there are amazing and are even helping out with her on jumping on people. I can't thank you guys enough and Roxy looks forward to her time there.
Overall, a strange experience. I called to make a reservation for my 2 dogs, but it was only made for 1 dog. I saw a rate on their website, which was confirmed on the phone. I was also told I needed to pick up at 7:30 on pick up day, because they didn't have space for them that day so they needed the kennel ASAP, which I agreed to. During this call, I stressed that I wanted the dogs to be together, since it was my puppy's first time being boarded and she is prone to anxiety. I called a few times to fix the reservation and left a message but wasn't able to get anyone that day and since if was over a weekend (I assume this is why), I did not get a return call. The morning of the reservation, I called again and was finally able to get someone on the phone, and they adjusted the reservation for both dogs, but then added a new reservation for a few weeks out. Got that sorted, and it was cancelled. The day of, I dropped my dogs off, and asked to see the kennels and was told I could not due to construction (loud music was playing), but was allowed to peak through the fence. All I could see was a cement pad inside a fence. I called daily to check on them when I was gone, and was told they were doing well. On the day of pick up, I check the invoice before leaving my house and noticed, firstly, that the rate was not what was on the website/discussed on the phone, and second, that they were charging me for the day of pick up, despite me needing to pick them first thing in the morning, because they didn't have room for them. I argued both points and was treated rather rudely by the person at the desk. She scrolled through images on a TV screen with a tone that left no room for misinterpretation of how unintelligent she thought I was, and reiterated that "I got the best price" and she "didn't know what was discussed on the phone". The way in which she was talking to me at this point felt very manipulative and she implied that no one told me that, which is completely unprofessional. Wanting to end the conversation, I said fine on the rate, but that I wasn't paying for the day if I needed to pick them up now. She suggested I just leave them and come back, to which I reiterated that I was told there was no room for them, which is why I there so early in the morning, and after a late flight. I live about 20 miles away and did not want to make the trip again. She checked the computer, and I assume, realized that there wasn't room for them. At this point, she "checked them out yesterday" and did not charge me for the day, but stated that she "would be making a note in my account that they need to go over pricing with me every time", very rudely. Admitting that I was tired from my late flight and still stressed about my trip so I was short with her at one point, I would still say her tone was unprofessional, and expecting people to pay for a service they literally can't use because there wasn't space for my dogs, then condescending to me and trying to manipulate me into paying for a service I wasn't getting was unethical and unacceptable. Also, both of my dogs smelled like urine, and my younger dog had clearly eaten something gross because her breath smelled like death, which it did not before drop off. I also noticed that my older dogs gums are swollen and red and sensitive to the touch. Not sure what happened here, but I don't think my dogs were well cared for, communication was unclear, and the person I spoke to was rude and unprofessional. I boarded here because my dogs could be together, but I will not be bringing them back under any circumstances.
My dog LOVES Camp Schultz! I can see the excitement in him when I drop him off. They are so friendly and attentive and see they treat him well. I feel comfortable dropping him off. This is the next best place for my pup to be besides at home with me! Price is very reasonable.
Great place to take my dog when going out of town. We pamper our dog and they do the same while we are gone.
This was an ease of convenience and my dog enjoyed coming to this facility however the pricing that the facility has is ridiculous. My dog stayed overnight, morning to morning and the going rate is $32 and they charged me for 2 nights and said there was nothing they could do since it was charged by calandra day. Change your prices if you can’t change it. Lost all trust and was rushed out of the office.
They took such good care of my girl. She's pretty nervous, and there was a bit of trouble the first day. She tried to dig out of the yard and make her way back home. But I was able to drop off some calming treats and they gave them to her. They made sure to tell me she was welcome back when we left the first time. We've been back for a second stay and she didn't need the treats the second time around. Definitely will be back again when we need to board her. They were so reassuring. I 100% recommend trying Camp Schultz. ♥️♥️♥️
They took care of our dogs two straight weekends. What I liked- 1) saw many recurring clients and the staff interaction with them was very personal. 2) fully staffed and busy. 3) smelled and looked clean. 4) friendly staff and you can tell they genuinely care about the pets. 5) amazing price (bring cash if you want to tip). Only "negative" is the parking, but don't get frustrated. People are super friendly and will pull out to make space for you
Always feel our Gigi is safe and well taken care of. Love their grooming services and accompanying report card. ☺️
I adopted my dog Hanna in September 2022 and picked her up at this facility where her rescue organization was boarding her while she waited for adoption. It was conveniently close to my workplace so I decided to continue using them 1-2x/week for day care while I'm at work since she was familiar with the staff and seemed to be loved by them. The staff is nothing but lovely and professional while taking care of Hanna and she usually comes home at the end of the day exhausted. Highly recommend!
I was nervous to board my Dog and felt bad for leaving her behind, however from the get go of booking my appointment they were very helpful and reassuring that my sweet dog would be taken care of. They went above and beyond and kindly communicated with me while I was away to reassure me that all was going well and that my baby was having a great time. They sent me a picture and video of her smiling and being taken care of. No one had ever done that before and it made such an impression on me. I highly recommend them!

We used to leave our dog there, and we used them a handful of times. The last time we used them, our dog had a bad skin rash and infection due to a bark collar. I asked the owner and refused to accept they used a bark collar on my dog and all she can come-up is that it was due to a sun burn. Sun burn on the throat, under her most protected and shaded area.... The fact is that this place is somewhat managed by two elder people that barely can take care of themselves and leave the place in the hands of someone that does not care of any dog except their paycheck. Would Not recommend using this place. Avoid it if you care about your pet.
Very Friendly Staff, lots Of Parking.
