Cat Sitters in Gaithersburg, MD

Jane & David

Jane and David were great sitters. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and our dogs were happy and well cared for. We would be happy to have them sit for us again sometime.

Kathryn

Kathryn was an excellent house and Cat Sitter. She texted me consistently to let me know how Sweetie was doing, including photos, and what her plans were for the day, how long Sweetie would be alone, etc. I had no concerns during my three nights away.I returned to a relaxed cat and a clean home. Highly recommended.

CRYSTAL

Crystal was an amazing sitter for us. She allowed us to enjoy our vacation to France with peace of mind that the fur kids were in great hands. Her communication was top notch and she send us texts and photos during the week. Don’t hesitate to have her pet sit for you. Thank you Crystal.

Tim

Tim was so kind and sweet to my dog Roma. She clearly loved palling around with him. He stayed in touch several times a day to send photos and updates on walks and things they were doing. My home was spotlessly clean as well when I returned home. I highly recommend Tim to care for your pets, he’s wonderful!!

Joshua

Joshua is one of the people that make zeewoi successful. He left the house cleaner than we left it for him, and he's a great communicator. He's really reliable and we feel completely comfortable leaving our kitties in his care. One of our cats, Bella, seems to like Joshua better than us!

Christina

Cristina was a great house/pet sitter! Easy to communicate with and great vibes. Left our house in the same condition we left it in and our dogs seemed very well cared for. We received multiple texts a day with updates and some photos. Would highly recommend!

Allie

Allie was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She kept me informed with photographs and messages whilst I was away. I came home to a very happy hound and a tidy house.

Pranav

Pranav was great! He was in town for a conference but always made sure that the dogs were walked, fed and taken care of no matter the time of day. He had great communication with us when necessary, sent some photos, and when we returned the house was clean and tidy. Would highly recommend him.

Mirabelle

Mirabelle was a wonderful Housesitter, we would absolutely invite her again. She came to our place while we were away for the holidays for a week and watched our Bunny. She’s a lovely person and great with our space and pet. It was easy to communicate with her ahead of time, she showed up on time and as agreed, sent regular short updates throughout the week with photos, and left our place exactly as she found it with sheets in the laundry so we didn’t have to do a thing. Recommend.

Marisa

Marisa was an excellent pet sitter and I couldn't be happier with her care of my cat - in fact, he may be a bit spoiled now by all of the attention he received. She came over the night before the sit to meet Kenji and learn how things work, and I could tell as soon as she met him that Kenji would be very happy with her! Marisa sent texts and photos so I could see how he was doing, and I came home to a very happy kitty. I highly recommend Marisa as a pet sitter, and I would be very happy to have her stay with Kenji again.

Alex

Alex and Perry were with our cats for only a weekend. They were great with them and we have no complaint regarding that care. However, communication and cleanliness were not the best.

Alyssa

Alyssa was an amazing house sitter who took excellent care of my 4 furry kids. She kept in contact everyday and ensured I arrived home safely in case other plans needed to be made if my flight was late. Highly recommend Alyssa!

Rebecca

Wow! I honestly can't say enough wonderful things about Claudia and George. They were amazing in every way!! They loved the boys and the boys loved them. Super organised and confirmed all the information in advance of the sit. We met up earlier and went out to dinner and felt so reassured leaving the boys and our home 🏡 in their capable hands.

They were exceptionally clean and tidy and left the house in a perfect state for us when we came home. We stayed in touch while we were away and received great updates and beautiful photos. 

If you have the opportunity to book Claudia and George, I cannot recommend them enough!!! My only disappointment is that they live so far away from us as 😉😄

Claudia and George, thank you so, so much! X😊

Sue

This was Liz's second time looking after my house and kitties, and just like the first time, everything was perfect. The cats took to her right away again, and she didn't even mind having to shovel snow after we received a significant amount of snow fall while she was here. She is easy to keep in touch with, always sending me updates and photos of the kitties (and the snow this time!). I would not hesitate to recommend her as a house sitter for whatever your needs might be!
