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.

I felt that my dogs were in good hands with Billy & Cherice - both pups seemed happy and well cared for when I returned from my 3-week trip. My home was also clean and tidy. This was my first experience using an unknown sitter and I felt nervous to leave my dogs for so long while traveling abroad. If they were to stay again I would request more regular photo updates, but otherwise was very happy with Billy and Cherice's pet and home care.
Elizabeth
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)
Barrett
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
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.
Simon
BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!
Robyn
Anna and Alan were absolutely brilliant. This was my first time using a sitter for our pup and from the start Anna was reassuring and put me at complete ease. They sent regular pictures while we were away and were incredibly easy to communicate with. I'd highly recommend Anna and Alan for any pet sitting needs. Robyn
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Amina
Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit. Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!
Jim and Darci
Laura is hands down the best sitter that we have ever had care for our pets and house! Having her stay made our trip away so care free and added a super fun layer of getting her daily (morning and night!) updates with photos and videos, some were hilarious I love Laura’s sense of humor! We were gone 8 days and when’s we arrived home our house was cleaner than when we left, mail on the counter, yard was picked up, it was beyond what we would expect. This made our first day back so easy. Oh’ and our pets were so relaxed and happy we knew they were loved and taken care of while we were away. Laura knew that we were coming home late and she even had bought a yummy quiche, rolls, fruit and juice so that we had breakfast in the morning! Laura is responsive, a great communicator, I could go on but simply put she is welcome at our house anytime. Simply the best!! Thank you tons Laura!!
Mara
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!

Kevin is an excellent dog groomer. We've known him for a couple years and followed him to Paws Town from his previous employer. Our dogs also trust and respond favorably to him. We highly recommend Kevin.
My mama passed and we inherited her sweet pup. I needed last minute grooming before I took a flight with her. Paws Town was kind and caring. They got me an appointment within 24 hours and lil Sasha looks wonderful!
I absolutely Love Paws Town. My German Shepard Baby loves it there. The staff are very friendly and truly love the dogs.
They truly do everything they can to make sure you are happy and your dog is taken care of. They communicate with you prior to doing any cutting if it’s necessary which is hard to find and they are extremely friendly! My go to place now to take care of our VERY long haired sheep dog! They also offer boarding for travel which is a plus. Highly recommend.
Dude, I wrote a fairly negative review earlier because I got my boarding places mixed up. What I said was the negative things about Paws and Claws. Paws Town on the other hand is amazing. We used to do the daycare program for our pup, when money wasn't tight. He always came home in a cheery and sleepy mood. The staff was amazing too. Im sorry for my negative review earlier. Got you all mixed up with where my mother-in-law brings her pups.
I could not be more happy with our experience here with doggy daycare. Was visiting from out of town and needed someone to care for my puppy while I had a family commitment. They expected some paperwork and information on vaccinations in advance to keep all the other dogs safe, which I appreciate, and they were very communicative about everything that was expected. We went for a short visit a day in advance so they could meet my puppy and get an idea of his temperament. When it came to the day of his stay, he was very excited to go with them. When I picked him up, it was clear that he had been well cared for, he had gone potty, and he had access to water. What a fantastic team. 100%, would go there again.
Our rescue pup had a FANTASTIC time!!! He's never been in a dog group play setting, and they did a wonderful job reading him and knowing where he would fit in!
What a place this is! The staff here are so friendly and helpful! They all love their job and it really shows! Everyone here is relaxed and smiling. They also work very hard in order to make sure the dogs and other animals are all worked with, played with, and loved on. They are super interactive with these animals! The place is clean and well kept! I haven't ever had to board my dogs anywhere but seeing these ladies and gents at work I would be comfortable with boarding here. Or even the daycare. Kudos to them!
We LOVE Paws Town, LLC! Our dog Booker always enjoys going to see them and we have tried other groomers before coming to them and TRUST ME when I tell you look no further and go NO WHERE else! Do whatever you have to do to work them into your schedule because they will love your dogs like they belong to them and your dogs will love it there! Booker is always happy to get there and sorry to leave!
we have used their daycare, grooming, and boarding services at this point. Our dog loves the daycare. She always comes home tired and is upset to leave all of the staff and other dogs. The grooming is great as well. The boarding services are a great deal when you need to leave town and the staff just really really cares about all of their clients.

Jim recently took care of my 2 cats and mreally dog while I was on vacation last week. He did a great job. He sent updates throughout the day and sent pictures of my pets to prove he was visiting. He seems like he really cares about pets and keeping his clients happy. He even emptied my litter boxes, brought in the mail, and took my trash to the curb. I would highly recommend Jim to anyone who needs a pet sitter.
I highly recomend using J Greenland's pet sitting service. We had to go out of town for the holidays, and needed to find a sitter last minute. We chose Greenland's because of his his great reviews. When we met him in person, we could see why. Our cats took to him immediately. He arrived promptly, and was thorough about each cats needs and personalities. We had him come for 45 minutes a day, to give him Time to play with the cats and check their food, water and litter. He sent us daily texts and pictures. And we could tell the cats were in good hands. They seemed happy to see him, and not stressed like they had been when we had left their care to friends or relatives. This made our trip MUCH more enjoyable. Because it allowed us to relax as well. We came home to happy cats. He is the only pet sitter we will use in the future. Thanks Jim!
Jim watched our 3 cats while we were gone over the Christmas holidays. He was great with them,and they all loved him from the first time he came over, to get keys. He not only performed routine services like feeding, watering, and scooping the litter, but even vacuumed around the litter box, brought in our mail, and took the trash Can to the curb on pick-up day. He took extra time to play with them, did a daily head count to make sure everyone was there, and sent us daily texts and pictures so we could be assured that they were okay. We HIGHLY recommend J Greenland Pet Sitting, and he is the only sitter we will use in the future. We came home to cats who were calm and happy and well-taken-care-of, and I will feel much better going out of town in the future, knowing there is an affordable, trust-worthy sitter like Jim that we can rely on. Thank you!
We found him on Google in a panic with a days notice to find something to do with our 11 month old German Shepard for a weekend we were going out of town. He replied that same night, made an appointment to come out the next day before we left to meet our dog and explain his services. She immediately took to him. He walked her, she laid on the couch by him as we talked, we explained what we needed and he took care of it exactly as we expected. Even sent us a couple pics and updates while he was there with her. We were nervous about it at first, but she was completely comfortable with him. I would recommend to anyone, and we will definitely use him again any and everytime we need.
I can't say enough nice about J. Greenland and his pet sitting. #1. Greet and meet. My furbabies took to him from day one. He sat with Rob and myself to go over my girls daily routines.# 2. Sent e-mail of exactly what we had discussed. #3. Health issues were discussed with a permission form signed to take my girls to the Vet in case needed & the Vet would call to let me know what was going on with either of my girls. # 4. Cleaned any messes my girls may have made. #5. The number of visits per day is left up to the paw parents. We chose 4 visits per day and the time of visits. 2-15 min. visits for potty time, 1- 30min. Visit for feeding and potty breaks. 1- 1 hour visit for walking and feeding. # 6. Medicines given during visits If required. # 7. Text messages received from Jim along with pics for assurances and reports on my girls during almost all visits. #8. Lots of TLC . I know my girls were safer and happier to be in their own environment and I felt completely at ease knowing these things. #9. Very reasonably priced. This was my experience. Others may choose different visit schedules and he will work with you in whatever you need. We just returned home after Jim had been in charge for 9 days. I've never felt more comfortable on a vacation. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND "J.GREENLAND PET SITTING" for your furbabies. THANK YOU JIM FOR ALL THE TLC !!

Jim is the best dog sitter I have had. He is organized and very caring. He took excellent care of my senior aged dog and our home during our recent vacation.
When I was in hospital with open heart surgery he helped out and did a great job. But can be very hard to get for emergency help.
He is so good with my dogs and they love him.. I am so grateful to have found him....
Reliable and great with our animals.
