Pet Sitters in Irondale, AL

Kristin

Kristin was unbelievable. She took amazing care of Saga and the house. She definitely went above and beyond what I expected and even took Saga to the vet when she needed to go. I highly recommend Kristin for anyone looking for someone trustworthy and responsible to take care of their home and pets.

Marcus

This was the first time I had a sitter at my home. Unlike most members, I don't have a pet, but a large garden. I wanted my first sitter to have good reviews from others. Marcus had great reviews, so we spoke on the phone, and I eventually I invited him to sit for me. Marcus seemed like a great guy, but not much of a gardener. He didn't seem to follow my instructions, and I eventually had someone else come to water and pick the veggies so they didn't rot on the plants. I take much of the blame, as I just assumed taking care of a large garden was second nature. I need to write more detailed instructions in my welcome book, and research my applicants a little better.

Kyle

It was a great pleasure for us to have Deanna and Kyle with us and to get to know them. From the beginning everything went absolutely perfect. From making contact, planning the stay, etc. it couldn't have been better. The house was of course left clean and in excellent condition. The cats were fine; the pictures sent were great. Our shy cat Schnurri also clearly felt at home. It is always important to us that our house sitters feel comfortable in our home and can spend wonderful days here. That obviously worked well too. We would love to invite Deanna and Kyle back to our home. Thank you very much for everything!

Melanie

Melanie was great. The puppies seemed to like her a lot. She left little easter eggs that we thought were very cute. If she wants to sit for us again, then we will definitely invite her back.

Jonathan

This was our first time using zeewoi for our dog Daisy. Jonathan was easy to communicate with, took great care of Daisy and the house was left very clean and tidy. We'd be happy to have Jonathan sit again anytime!

Maggie

Maggie & Gabriel were the perfect pair to look after my cat Sprout while I was away for the week! They were easy to communicate with, thoughtfully sent photos of Sprout throughout their stay, took care of her when she was having a minor health issue, and left the apartment even cleaner than it was before their stay! I highly recommend them, and would love to have them again for future stays should they return to the Boston area!

Joseph

Joseph was amazing when caring for our 8 year old border collie. He took her for walks played more ball than she could ever want and took excellent care of our house. He sent photo updates and was so responsive. I believe oakley misses him but I would recommend Joseph for any future dog sits.

Raven

Raven did an outstanding job with my two fur babies. She sat with them for five days. I came home to a clean house and two healthy and happy puppies. I highly recommend her.

Maranda

Maranda & Keon were amazing pet and house sitters. They were communicative when they needed something clarified, but also independent and self-sufficient. They managed the pets many quirks with ease! The house was clean when we arrived home, sheets were washed, and the fur buddies were clearly well cared-for. We’d have Maranda & Keon sit for us again any time!

Chloe

Beautiful home located in the Sunshine Coast. 

Chloe was a great host and so lovely! Alfie is such an easy dog to care for. He is very cuddly and loves to sit on the couch for a cuddle.

I would love to look after Alfie again 😊

Lauren

Both scout and Noah were lovely and easy to sit. They love to be close by and enjoy playing in the back yard. They are both very chill and easy to handle. Would happily sit them again!   Owners left easy to follow instructions. Couldn't have been easier.

Jo

While virtually all of our housesits have been wonderful experiences, there are those rare house- and pet-sits that are pure magic, transcendent experiences that have touched us deeply, and that have left us with unforgettable  memories.  The time we spent with Jo and Ruth, and later with their dear kitty Ruby in their unique and beautiful home was one of those very special shining adventures of empathic resonance that have graced our life's  journey with the wonder of radiant and beloved new friendships.

This housesit was an enlightening experience and we dearly hope this friendship will continue to flourish and grace our lives.

Thank you dear Jo, Ruth and Ruby-Cube.  

And thank you Trusted Housesitters

Danyah

I loveee(d) Echo! She is very sweet, kind and well behaved/trained. We made some really nice walks in the area. Besides that, the house is comfortable and Danyah was very caring and hospitable. I even went to a performence of Danyah and her daughter. Loved it! Would love to come back!

Cherer

Cherer is friendly and welcomed me into her home.  Her home is clean and located in a safe quiet neighborhood within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. 
Jax is sweet and very well behaved.  I highly recommend a sit with Jax and Cherer!

Ray

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Skittles and Wrigley. They are so fun/well behaved/low maintenance!  Skittles would be like a sweet shadow hanging out with me while I worked from home throughout the days. I loved when Wrigley would be looking for his pizza toy or cuddled in funny poses while watching tv. 

Ray was very communicative and welcoming in his lovely home! Beautiful, quiet community located about 30 mins away from downtown San Antonio. Nearby Boerne has its own river park and cute restaurants to offer. 

Thank you for a great stay. I’d love to come back to spend more time with Wrigs & Skittles again soon!!
