Dog Sitters in Gloucester County, VA

Jason

Jason is a great housesitter and cared about our cat's comfort. We were able to take our pup with us but not our cat who has separation anxiety. We received pictures and updates on how he was doing. Jason is also a kind person, and we met his girlfriend who is lovely as well. It was so nice to come back to a tidy home after traveling. Would definitely recommend!

Tara

Tara did a great job, both Bailey and Duke enjoyed her visit, and she did a terrific job keeping me informed (pictures and text) on how they were doing. She was very reliable, and I highly recommend her.

Tina & Peter

Tina, Peter and the kids were excellent sitters. They asked questions when they had them, sent pictures to us, took excellent care of the animals, and cleaned the house thoroughly before they left. We couldn’t have asked for more. I would highly recommend Tina and Peter for your pet sit.

Valery

Valery and Hunter took excellent care of my shy, elderly cat, Grace, and our home. She communicated regularly and the house was spotless on our return. I will welcome Valery and Hunter back!

Margit & Donald

I had a great experience with Margit & Donald. Their prompt communication before arrival and during their stay, on-time arrival, and self-sufficiency (they were able to take care of installing the battery in a smoke alarm in my daughter’s room) during their stay were very much appreciated as we were out of the country. The thoughtful touch of bringing a gift for my cat showcased genuine care. Margit’s daily updates about how they spent their day were not only informative but also reassuring, providing details about my cat's activities. The only drawback was a minor misunderstanding about the departure date, leading to their early departure by a day. However, considering the exceptional care provided, it was a forgivable oversight, and I would definitely consider them again for a housesit. I wholeheartedly recommend Margit & Donald. Their responsiveness, attention to detail, and affection towards my pet make them an excellent choice for any pet owner seeking reliable and caring pet sitting.

Cara

Cara is the best sitter I've worked with on zeewoi. Totally self-reliant, sends updates and pictures, makes sure my dog is cared for and gets a lot of exercise, and leaves the place spotless. My dog is anxious by nature, but she looks out for him and take it all in stride. 10/10.

Nicole

Nicole came for a long weekend and took care of my horses, dog, and cat. She had good prior experience doing farm sitting and was familiar with a barn and horses. They were fed and cared for following the instructions very carefully. Nicole handled some complications with the dog competently without a problem, and the cat adored her. The house and barn were left tidy and the plants and garden were all still alive after several very hot days. Overall a good experience.

Jennifer

I can’t recommend Jenn enough as a cat and house sitter! From the moment I met her, it was clear she was trustworthy and genuinely caring. Her warm personality instantly put my cats at ease, and it was heartwarming to see how quickly they warmed up to her. Jenn was fantastic at communicating throughout my time away, providing updates and even sharing sweet photos of my fur babies. Knowing they were in such good hands made my trip worry-free. She followed all the instructions in my welcome guide to a tee and left my home spotless upon her departure. I truly appreciate her attention to detail and the care she showed for my pets and space. I would gladly welcome her back anytime! Thank you, Jenn, for your wonderful care!

Charlotte

We've used Charlotte multiple times now. She is great with our animals and gives them lots of love. Our house is always clean when we get back. We are thankful to have found her.

Abigail & Arjun

Abbey and Arjun took fantastic care of both our pets and our home. They were just the right level of communicative throughout our trip, and we returned to a clean house full of happy animals. 😄 Highly recommended.

Dawn "Aurora"

Dawn was great! She took very good care of Harley and left everything clean and as she found it when she arrived. She also kept me up to speed on how Harley was all weekend. I would highly recommend her as a sitter.

Tess

Tess & Hanni are wonderful house sitters. They communicated often. We came home to happy pets & a tidy home. We look forward to them house sitting again.

Kendelle

wendy is so kind and very loving to our little bennie! she was very easy to chat with and i feel confident bennie had good care while we were gone.

there were unfortunately a couple incidents with our landlord (who is very particular about things, but who we also have a great relationship with.)

she was also an hour late to arrive and a couple hours late to leave upon our return, which wasn’t bad but just a minor inconvenience.

overall though, if our living situation were different we would extend an invitation to wendy to watch bennie again.

Dera

Taylor was very responsive and took great care of our two dogs, 2 goats, 12 chickens, 4 turkeys and two pigs!!

SAMARA

Anna and Michael were the perfect house guests and wonderful care takers for our two dogs. I especially appreciated the daily updates and amazing photos sent by Anna. One of my dogs is prone to seizures and when it happened during their stay, I knew he was in safe and caring hands Anna and Michael, who communicated with me about it with great compassion. Our house was spotless when we returned as well. You could not ask for better home and pet sitters!!!

BRANDON

Great sit.  Well organised.  Fabulous pets.  Amazing countryside.

Cristie

It was great hanging out with Tucker. Really well behaved for such a young pup and the owners were welcoming, clear with communication, and responsive.
