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.
Hannah
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Barbara
Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!
Robert & Rebecca
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!
Sarah
Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.

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
Lynn
We were so happy to have Kyle as our house sitter for two weeks. Besides taking great care of our pets and our house, he was very accommodating. We were always able to get in touch with him if we needed to, and he agreed to take on some extra plant watering’s when the weather made a sudden change. As a bonus, he is very likable and communicative. We would definitely have him come again.

Jacob sat for us during our holiday in March. We do not have any pets but we do have garden plants etc to look after. Jacob did a fantastic job of looking after the young plants that had arrived by post the day before we went away. He sent us regular updates and photos of how the plants were doing. We came home to a very clean and tidy house and thriving plants. Jacob did a great job and we have no hesitation in recommending him. If he comes back to the Uk and we require a sitter we will contact him first. Well done Jacob.

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!!
Carole
Elaine was a welcomed sitter for Cyrus and Purrelli. I returned from holiday to find a very content relaxed dog and a happy fat cat. Purrelli doesn’t eat when he is stressed so seeing a little meat on him let me know he was content and happy :) My condo was left clean and in order, all communications were smooth and there was zero issues. Thx for the great pet care Elaine.

Paula has watched our very timid Bernadoodle in her home several times. She is caring and he gets great care. She keeps us informed with photos and texts, just enough so that we enjoy our vacation and have peace of mind that our dog is happy
5 Stars!! We LOVE Comfy Creatures! Jennifer takes amazing care of our girls each time we’re gone. She sends pictures and updates that help us know they are ok. The dogs love her and she “gets” them which is so reassuring when we are away from them. Dagmar is super professional and helpful with all the bookings. She took the time try different caregivers to find the one that our dogs connected the best with. All the staff takes a personal interest in the customer and their pets. Definite five star experience and highly recommend them!
I have used Comfy Creatures for about 8 months now and I love their services for my two dogs. I have had a few last minute needs and they are so accommodating! Their handlers are experienced and gentle and my dogs LOVE Dawn. She is very thorough with explaining to me what happened while she was at my home taking care of my girls. I love Comfy Creatures because one of my dogs is very skittish around other dogs and I can't trust that she will be safe at a dog day care. With Comfy Creatures, I can ensure my dogs' safety and comfort throughout the day when I am gone long days. I never worry when they are in Dawn's hands. The service is very affordable as well. I would highly recommend Comfy Creatures to anyone with any type of pet.
So grateful for this company! I am so glad I found Comfy Creatures to help me with Daisy. I have a job with long hours and at times unpredictable schedule, and Comfy Creatures has been prompt in helping make sure Daisy is well taken care of. I trust them more than boarding places or other walkers I’ve had. They truly make me feel like they are helping me take care of my pup because they are compassionate and responsible people! Love the “i have a pet at home in case of emergency” cards they provider to me right away on starting to work with them. I also love the faily updates by text, photo, and journal :) I also have greatly appreciated their help during the pandemic. Thanks comfy creatures!!!!
I'm very happy with the service I received from Dagmar and Comfy Creatures. We got very personal updates and pictures. Our sitter Mareike welcomed our two dogs (one with special medical needs and is deaf) into her home and made them a part of the family. It was very comforting to know they were in a family setting with a lot of individual attention. Comfy Creatures was also very accommodating when I needed to pick them up early because of an emergency. These are wonderful people and a very special company.
We have been using comfy creatures for a few years now. Candy is our sitter and she is wonderful. Our dogs and cats love her and get so excited when she arrives. Recently my husband and I went on vacation for the first time since getting the dogs. I felt relaxed while I was away knowing that candy cares for my babies exactly the way that I do. Some of the dogs have allergies and medical problems, and require medications and complicated diets, candy handles it all perfectly. We are so thankful for comfy creatures care!
We have been using Comfy Creatures for almost 20 years and have been very satisfied with their service. 100% reliable and we always come back to a well taken care of home and happy kitties! Dawn always goes above & beyond in everything that she does. With her patience throughout the years she has managed to cuddle with my two scaredy cats. I don’t know what we would do without Dawn & the Comfy Creature team. Many thanks for the peace of mind when we are away from home.
I’ve been using Comfy Creatures to take care of my fur babies for over 5 years and couldn’t be happier with their service. Dagmar (owner) and Teri (our main sitter) are fantastic and I’ve recommended them to a few friends in the area, as well. You can rest easy — whether it’s while you’re at work or on vacation — knowing the Comfy Creatures team is taking great care of your pets while you’re away ☺️
We've used Comfy Creatures for about six months and are really happy with their service. It is very easy to schedule walks, and we have the same person come to our home to walk our dog each day. Jennifer is so kind and patient with our dog, who is a lovable rescue but comes with some quirks! We have used two other companies in the past, and we don't have any of the same issues we used to deal with (wondering if they would show up, or losing our keys). We leave our house each day knowing that our dog will be well taken care of, and that gives us a lot of peace of mind.
We have been customers for many years and Comfy Creatures does an excellent job of meeting our needs. They provide progress reports for your pet(s) while you are away and their rates can't be beaten. They strive to always provide the same pet sitter so that your pets can make an easy transition while you are away. Dagmar, the owner, is always prompt with her responses and willing to go to the extra mile for customers if needed. I recommend this service to everyone that I know!
