Pet Sitters in Garrett Park, MD

Minna & Avner

We couldn’t have asked for better house and pet sitters than Minna and Avnir! They took incredible care of our dog, Tenny, for 3 ½ weeks while we were away in Saint Lucia. From the start, their communication was perfect—keeping us updated with just the right amount of messages and sending sweet photos of Tenny, so we knew she was in great hands. They were entirely self-sufficient and left our home in immaculate condition, which was such a gift to come home to. What stood out most was how much they adored Tenny—taking her on fun adventures to Greylock Glen and showering her with love and belly rubs. If you have the chance to welcome Minna and Avnir as sitters, don’t hesitate. They are truly exceptional, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly. Your pets and home will be in the best possible hands.

Susan

Susan was five stars plus! We could tell from the first time we met her that she would be a great fit for our Maisie! Not only did she give us frequent updates with photos, she also gave Maisie daily multiple walks and lots of cuddles and snuggles. She was very neat and clean and left our home as neat as when we left. She is a kind and caring animal lover, very responsible, and trustworthy. We could not have asked for a better Pet Sitter for our sweet Maisie! Highly recommend!

Alice & Kirk

Aside from the pets being well taken care of, and the house being perfectly spotless when we came home, Alice and Kirk were flexible and highly communicative. They even rolled with the punches when after boarding our flight that morning and before they arrived, our dog decided to break out of the back fence for the first time in years and ran to a neighbor! Not the way we wanted their stay to start, but they handled it extremely well. They were kind enough to let us know about a broken doorhandle on the of the bedrooms we never use so that we can get that fixed for the next time someone stays. We would most definitely welcome them back again.

Devin

Devin stayed with Roma over the July 4th holiday and I was glad to have him there in case the fireworks got too loud for her. His communication was fine. He sent some lovely photos of Roma which made me smile. I think he and Roma did fine together. Thanks Devin!

Carolyn

We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with Carolyn and zeewoi. There was zero evidence that her and Douglas had even been here, except of course, our calm, happy pets. Our house was spotless and everything was exactly as we left it 5 days earlier. Although we weren’t able to meet in person, communication before and during the sit was perfect. She sent us cute pics of our babies, which helped us relax knowing they were well cared for. One of our dogs was in heat and they even handled her diaper situation without complaint. We would happily let Carolyn and Douglas sit for us again!

Danny

Danny was great with both our dogs and very self sufficient. He was very accommodating to our needs and an excellent communicator. He really cared about our timid dog and gave us advice as a former dog owner himself.

Magdalena

Magda was organized, quick to reply to messages, and accommodating with plans. She arrived early so that we could spend time providing details of the sit and so that our dog Myers could see us with her. She was very self-sufficient during the stay and left the house neat and tidy. I'd recommend Magda and would use her to sit Myers again.

Lee

Lee was terrific,I loved her company the night she stayed before my trip. I knew she would settle and love the dogs. Lee sent me pictures and messaged me regularly. On my return the apartment was beautifully tidy all in all a truly wonderful experience. Thank you trusted house and pet sitters and a big thank you to Lee

Carolina

Carolina was amazing, especially considering my dog required an emergency vet visit. She took great care of Homer, put his needs first, and communicated well throughout. The situation wasn't ideal for Carolina but she did an amazing job. Highly recommend!

Lizzy

Lizzy was everything you want in a pet sitter. She is a loving, caring woman who provided great care of our two pups and home.

Lindsay & Shayne

I would not hesitate to have Lindsay and Shayne take care of my house and pets. They were so kind and thoughtful, even brightening our return with a vase of sunflowers! They cleaned up better than our housekeeper. Most importantly, they really played with and exercised our Labrador. I could tell from the photos they sent while we were away that he was extremely comfortable and relaxed with two new people in his house. Thank you for being such great Zeewoi!

Annette

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Annette and her daughter Claire were great! They clearly enjoyed the cats, were tidy and careful, and they rolled with the punches when I showed up home earlier than they'd expected (my fault, I usually text to let people know my ETA but I was in an area with bad connection and didn't notice the message had failed to send) they just dealt with it cheerfully. I'd be very happy to have them back any time they're in the area!

Madelaine

We really enjoyed our time in North Vancouver looking after Suzie and Stanley who were adorable and no trouble at all. We got quite attached to them. Suzie was very entertaining playing "fetch" and Stanley happy to chase a toy or be brushed. The house is in a very good location with trails just a short walk away. Communication with Maddy went seamlessly and we would definitely recommend this sit if you get the chance.

Kate

I had a great time hanging out with Coco in such a beautiful location! Kate was great to communicate with before and during my stay. I would jump at the opportunity to do it again!

rohit

From the first moment on, Rohit and Shivani were so sympathetic and easy to communicate with. Meeting them and having dinner together truly felt like visiting friends. Their open and warm nature makes you feel at home fight away. The good preparation and the clear plan were super helpful in order to maintain Fujis routine, so that all can feel at ease. Fuji is just the sweetest girl. She is quite independent, but loves her play time (favorite game is definitely tug-of-war) and snuggles. Not giving her too much attention was hard but doable ;-) and of course in her best interest. For such a young dog, she is pretty well behaved and has a very manageable energy, very impressive. You can tell that Rohit and Shivani are doing a great at job at training her. 

We miss Fuji and her softness and her sweet face. One of the best parts were the slow mornings, sitting on the sofa in the beautiful morning sunlight, relaxing with Fuji while reading a book. We can highly recommend this house sit and also liked the location very much: Itzig has offers some super nice walks and greenery scene, yet it is only a short drive away from the city center. 

This was our very first house sit and the three of them made it such an enjoyable experience. 
Thanks for everything!
