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.

This was our first time using a pet or house sitter and the bar set by Leslie is very high! She is warm, friendly, communicative, responsible and very clean. Upon arriving, she immediately bonded with our rat terrier, Oreo, by bringing him a new frisbee (his favorite toy/activity) and throwing it for him in our backyard. Leslie has a sweet and mellow dog, Benny, who is now Oreo's new buddy! She kept my husband and I updated via texts/pictures of their daily activities, our house, and was proactive in asking questions before she left. She even dropped our dog off at the kennel for one night at the end of our trip since our flight was too late for us to get home for him! Our home was clean and had fresh flowers from our garden that she put in vases for us! Such a simple and nice touch! We have asked Leslie to come back to sit for us again for 2 weeks in August. I'd highly recommend her to take care of your pet(s) and home too!
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.
Kristina and Doug
Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.

What a lovely couple Tara and Tyler are. They had been in Scottsdale about six weeks before the house sit. and can to meet us. Rusé, our Toy Fox Terrier, fell in love with them immediately, and was in Tara’s arms within two minutes. We always like our sitters to arrive the day before we leave, take them out to dinner and get to know them. It was quite apparent from the videos and photos we received, that Rusé did not miss us. Tara and Tyler’s three grown up children joined them before Xmas-to Rusé’s delight as these were additional hands to throw his rubber bones and balls. The house was all clean and tidy, when we returned.. There is a strong possibility that Tara and Tyler will move to Arizona from Montana, with two of their children, recently moved to the area. They have already offered to look after Rusé in the future. We know he would love it. We cannot recommend Tyler and Tara higher enough, they were perfect House and Pet sitters
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Peggy
Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!
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.
Evelyn & Jeff
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.
Sally
Toby and we were SO lucky to have Tom be our home and pet sitter for our Thanksgiving Holiday trip! From the very beginning Tom was responsive and communicative. He was even able to arrange a "meet and greet" with us and Toby before beginning his stay. While here Tom took great care of our home, and, most importantly, provided wonderful care of Toby! When we got home everything was in perfect order and we could tell that even though Toby was happy to see us he was going to miss Tom. I would be thrilled if we could have Tom as our zeewoi again. You will be lucky if he can do the same for you. :)
Tina
If you’re lucky enough to find Anna as your pet sitter you will have peace of mind and well cared for pets whilst you are away and a clean and tidy home on your return. Anna is thoughtful and kind, she arrived the evening before the sit which allowed for some time to hear about her interesting travels and work, kept me updated with fabulous photos and details of the friendship she was making with the cats and even took the trouble to fix a sticky catch on the cat flap. I can recommend her as a sitter without hesitation. Thank you Anna

Our dog is always in great hands at Zorba kennel! They have a wonderful setup, and it makes me feel confident that my dog has a wonderful pupcation with friends when we are away! Spring break stay last year they did a photo shoot!!
Our pup is always so excited to visit Zorba. He loves the staff and playtime with the other dogs. We have utilized both vacation boarding and daycare. This week we had to go out of town last minute and Zorba was able to give Jax a great stay instead of being crated alone at home. It was comforting to know he was well cared for in an enriched environment. He was all smiles when we picked him up. Thank you Zorba Team, your service is much appreciated.
We love Zorba!!!! Our dog, Rip has stayed there twice now! And we feel so comfortable leaving him there when we go places or on vacation somewhere. Hands down the best and cost friendly place! Everyone there is so nice and friendly and gives our pup the space he needs when it’s needed.
Awesome staff great service and treatment for your fuzzy friends. We take our dog here 4-5 days a week cuz she is temperamental at home alone and we also use their services when we go on vacation our dogs love it she is excited in the morning to go daily
Zorba Kennel is the only place to take your pets!! Like many, my two dogs are an important part of our family and we don't trust their care with just anyone. A few times a month, we need to travel on the weekends and can leave knowing that they are in the best care possible! We know that TC and Eris LOVE going and LOVE the people there! They love the play time with the other dogs and attention they receive. They burn off lots of energy and come home happy. I wish I could leave more than five stars!
The staff was nice and worked well with me for pick up and drop off times. They took good care of my 10 week old puppy. He was very happy when we picked him up and in the picture they had on Facebook. I will definitely go back if we need someone to care for our puppy.
I absolutely 💯 % recommend Zorba Kennel. I am always impressed with the care, quality and kindness they give my dogs and I. Kristine and her crew are AMAZING. Thank you , thank you, thank you for everything. If you need a quality place for your pet look no further. …
Our dog loves going to daycare here and is always so excited to walk through the door! It's convenient to have a place he is comfortable staying overnight when needed as well. 10/10 recommend taking your pets here!
My dog has been going to daycare here for months, and he loves it!! He always comes home happy and tired from playing with the other dogs. When he gets a bath here, he smells so fresh and has these big, beautiful curls! It’s an amazing kennel with amazing people who take great care of the dogs.
My Sheepadoodle loved her time at Zorba Kennel and was so happy to play with the other dogs. It was clean and very comfortable and the staff was great. Their boarding prices were very reasonable too and they fit us in with very little notice. I will definitely bring Chloe back again!

Definitely recommend this kennel! I’ve boarded my dog multiple times! Each time I drop him off, he’s always super excited to see the girls! If you’re looking for a trustworthy, well kept kennel definitely visit Windy Acres! Also the grooming services are great and I 100% recommend Shyann!
Love the girls at Windy Acres! My dog has severe separation anxiety and never could stand being around other people without barking or running away. Now after a month of doggy daycare he wags his tails at the girls when we come in and now has started warming up to other people. They are super accommodating and let me bring his blanket and favorite toys with him and they even bathed him for me ❤️ worth any and every cent!
This is the kennel I will be using to board my dogs from now on. I have tried other kennels and never felt good leaving my dogs there. One of my dogs doesn’t like other dogs and I was always made to feel bad about that. When I called this kennel she said they deal with it all the time and it wouldn’t be a problem. I felt comfortable having them watch my dogs and they even got a complementary bath so they smelled good and were all clean when I picked them up. The staff is wonderful and really put my mind at ease. They even said I could call and get updates on how the dogs were doing if I was worried about them. Because of this, I was able to enjoy myself on vacation and felt confident my dogs were in good hands.
We have used Windy Acres multiple times now..we love and trust this kennel so much. They have always taken care of our GSP, and he always comes home happy, exhausted (in a good way) and smelling amazing! We have used another kennel once and the experience was underwhelming. Our dog came back smelling like he laid in his pee for 5 days..We will only use Windy Acres from now on. My brother also used them Labor Day weekend along with us and they let the pups even play together during play time. We were even able to call and check up on both pups and how they were doing together..They really love your pets like their own. Highly recommend!
Windy Acres was great with boarding our medical marvel elder cat for 2 weeks. Our old lady has given other boarding services some behavioral trouble, but the staff at Windy Acres are truly talented and reported no problem working with her. We especially appreciated the opening hour on the weekend to be able to pick up our kitty ASAP when we returned. Thank you!
I have boarded my two dogs at Windy Acres probably a dozen times over the past several years, and I always have a good experience. The staff is very friendly and you can tell they all really love animals. The kennels are large and I appreciate the option of boarding dogs in the same kennel so they are together. My dogs do come home stressed out, but I believe that is just because of the experience of being in a kennel/around strange dogs and not anything to do with the care the staff provides.
Wendy Acres Kennels is a fantastic choice for dog boarding! I recently boarded my dog there, and I was thoroughly impressed. Not only did they provide a safe and comfortable environment, but my dog also received a bath, which was a wonderful bonus. The staff is incredibly caring and kind, making sure every dog feels at home. The value for the service is outstanding, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Wendy Acres Kennels to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry friends.
Would not recommend. We’ve boarded two of our dogs here twice. The first time was fine, neither bad nor great. The second time however, both of our dogs came home with KENNEL COUGH which then infected our other dog and our cat. All of our animals are vaccinated. Please beware if you’re planning on bringing your fur babies here.
My dog seemed happy with Nikki. He was kissing her when we picked him up. We went back a second time, Nikki wasn't there unfortunately. Didn't have a good experience this time. Dog came home so thirsty. Never have seen him drink water like that. And they didn't feed him breakfast. And none of his treats. They gave him a bath, that we didn't ask for
Absolutely trust the care for our two beagles at Windy Acres. Clean sectioned off dog runs indoor comfort winter or summer as well as easy independent access for dogs doing their outdoor needs. Super kind staff who can walk the dogs in a natural setting for those curious noses to explore! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our puppy dogs. Jerry
