Pet Sitters in Kettering, OH

Andrea

Andrea dog and house sat for me last week - it was my first time using the service and if Andrea is an example of how it works- I’m hooked. She was wonderful at communication and when we met she was warm and competent and petted my goofy Emma while we talked so I could tell she was a doggie person. She had an unforeseen issue with the bathroom shower but while she informed me of it she also was able to resolve and deal with it herself!! (The joys of an older home) Upon my return the dog was happier and the house tidier than I left it (embarrassing but fun to come home to after a vacation) I think Emma is still wondering when Andrea will be back - I hope we can work that out soon!!! Thanks Andrea for adding enjoyment to my delightful vacation - knowing that dog and home in good hands.

Pamela

Pam was the perfect sitter, communicating really well prior to arriving, listening to my needs for Larry and ensuring that they were carried out. Keeping in touch while I was away on how he was, and sending photos. I returned to a lovely clean house and a thoughtfully cooked and delicious evening meal ! I would recommend Pam to anyone, and would happily have her return in future, 5 Stars aren’t enough !!

Andrea

Andrea was fantastic! Super considerate and very clean. Left the place as she received it. Took my pups on hikes and would have Andrea back any time!

Laura

Laura did a wonderful job taking care of our cat and our house for us on a recent trip. She was very personable and careful about understanding our guide. The house was beautifully clean on our return and Suriyah seemed very happy!

Catherine & Michael

Cathy and Mike were excellent! They are true dog lovers and gave my 2 pugs an abundance of TLC from the time they arrived. They were very communicative with me and sent pictures and info on my dogs. They also watered my flower garden, dealt with mail and packages and left the house spotless. This included washing linens and bath towels prior to our return. They are delightful to have in your home and to give your dog all the attention they could ask for. I definitely would recommend and I would love to have them return in the future.

Bryan

Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!

Megan

ABSOFREAKINLUTELY AMAZING! Megan and Bryant were the best. Chill, organized and clean. They obviously gave our pups a lot of cuddles and love. Thanks guys. Come back anytime!

Karen

It was lovely to meet Karen and John a delightful couple who showed love and affiliation to my pets. Once everything was explained I felt very confident leaving my pets in their care. The house was left in a lovely clean state with the bedsheets changed and washed. Bonnie, Mimi and Cilla were pleased to see me home and looked like they have had a good time. Would definitely recommend Karen and John.

Shelby & Anthony

Shelby and Anthony were excellent sitters. They asked all the right questions. They kept Savannah and Maya exercised and comfortable, which is hard to do in this very hot weather. I would consider them very reliable. They were prompt with everything. When we returned home, our house was clean and our dogs were happy. They even left us a few goodies in the house as a surprise. I would definitely have Shelby & Anthony sit for us anytime.

Kurt

Kurt was wonderful! He took great care of my pets, and my house was left clean and neat. I recommend Kurt to anyone looking for a house and pet sitter!

Alan & Linda

Alan was great with River

Alan & Marilynne

This was the 2nd time Alan and Marilynne watched my cats for me, and I knew Sylvie and Monet would be in great hands because Alan and Marilynne had been so great the first time! They sent updates and pictures of the cats cuddling with them, and are so friendly they even had dinner with my neighbors one night! Another thing that stood out was how great they were when my cat got sick the night before/morning I left for my trip. I was so worried about the timing, but they assured me they were comfortable with anything they needed to do to help her- they went and got meds for her, kept me updated, and even called the vet when she got sick again. I've been home for several days, but I got a text from them today asking how Sylvie's doing now. These are very kind and caring people, totally trustworthy and do a great job!

Fiona

I had a really lovely relaxing stay in this quiet, peaceful cottage in Dorset. Katie was very welcoming and helpful showing me the ropes and some lovely walks in the nearby woods which I thoroughly enjoyed exploring with the absolutely adorable Tonks, Cedric and Teddie who were all extremely well behaved. I enjoyed looking after the horses, parrot and budgie and getting to know their personalities. 

I would highly recommend and would happily sit again, the surrounding area is beautiful with the lovely Kingston Lacy a short drive away.

Thank you Fiona and Katie for a lovely stay.
