Pet Sitters in Mount Rainier, MD

Rachel

Rachel was great. Took Uma for outings and send pics. She didn’t have any big questions after I left. She stayed late as I got in late on the last day so Uma was well cared for.

Diana

Diana was an excellent sitter for my cat Mishka for two weeks. Mishka can take time to feel comfortable with new people, but she quickly warmed up to Diana - she was cuddling and purring within days. Diana kept me updated with daily photos and handling the mail. I came home to a very clean apartment and she even bought me a gift bag. Very reliable and highly recommend!

Cat

We recently had Cat housesit for us while we were out of the country, and she was a fantastic pet, house, and plant-sitter. Many housesitters manage 2 of 3, but very few go 3 for 3! We returned to a spotless home, with plants looking healthy and watered (we have a TON of plants), and most important – three very contented animals. Our dog was really sad to see her go! My husband and I also enjoyed getting to know Cat before and after our trip and cannot recommend her highly enough! We would welcome her back anytime.

Maryjo & Jon

Maryjo and Jon were great sitters! They took really good care of all of our pets and the house. They were communicative and reliable. We would welcome them back anytime!

Emily

Emily and John cared for our two dogs while we were i. Europe. It was our first time using zeewoi so we were a bit nervous. But they were superb. Very capable, neat, self sufficient and sent almost daily photos of our girls on walks and playing. They put us at ease. Would highly recommend.

Woong

Woong was a great houseguest that took excellent care of my dog while I was away. He was incredibly communicative, sent many check-in texts with pictures, and responded quickly. He asked many questions to make sure Dakota was able to stay on her normal routine and was as comfortable as possible. When I got home, my apartment was spotless. I'm so glad he lives close by, because I will definitely be using him again. Thanks Woong!

Olivia & Belrie

I am so fortunate because I had to cancel this sit at the last moment and Olivia and Belrie were extremely understanding. All our communications leading up to the sit were phenomenal, and I can't wait to have them stay with Pearl soon.

Nicole & Owen

Niki and Owen were great sitters. We arrived home to a wonderfully clean home, a cared-for yard and garden, and everything as we'd left it. Throughout their extended stay they were communicative and patient with us various home systems failed. We would definitely recommend them for your housesit needs! Note: the system would not let us progress without providing a rating for pets, but they did not watch our pets. So consider the 5-stars a reflection of their care and attentiveness to our plants, inside and out.

Anna

Anna and her two kids were amazing with our home and took incredible care of our pets. Our (sometimes cranky) dog loved them immediately, which gave me such a sense of relief! I'm so grateful to them for a great week where I didn't have to worry about anything back at home.

Jeannie

Great experience. We returned to a tidy home and a happy pup! Jeannie also sent us pictures just about everyday to update us on how things were going.

Savanna

Savanna and Amaya were amazing dog sitters. Very trustworthy, in clear and constant communication, with pictures. They left the home more organized than they found it! My husband had a change of plans, and had to stay in the separate basement apartment of the house, and Savanna and Amaya were very understanding. We would recommend this wonderful duo to anyone and know that our dog and house were very well taken care of.

Lesly & Nick

Lesly watched my two cats for a weekend and I would definitely recommend her. She was quick to respond to texts, left my place spotless and left a sweet thank you note. She was able to confirm the sit last minute and was very reliable.

Susanne

Misti was one of my favorite sitters ever! She was super communicative, send me pictures and videos daily and made me totally feel at ease while away. Came home to a happy cat and dog and a clean home. Will definitely choose for again if she’s available in the future. :)

Francis

Guys, as all of the other reviews say, this is the creme de la creme of dog sits. Rocky is one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of looking after. Francis, Emilie, Eloise and Daniel have been absolutely amazing and extremely accommodating. Some of the kindest people I have met. They will go above and beyond to make sure you’re well looked after, we had a WhatsApp group going which worked extremely well. 
The house is gorgeous, extremely spacious, clean and family oriented; you’ll feel at home here the second you arrive.

Lee

Hoagie is very sweet and smart, I had great time with him. Owners are also very friendly and responsive. House is very neat and clean. Overall had great experience here.

Lisa

We had a wonderful time at Lisa and Marty place, there boys are lovely and very low maintenance, the home is well located, so we didn’t have to move our vehicle once, everything that we want to do was within walking distance.
Would recommend this sit,

Sally

We really loved our time taking care of Roddy and Charlie. They were absolutely wonderful and we miss them already. The house was clean and tidy upon our arrival and Sally and her family welcomed us kindly. We felt like home and we loved the area. Thank you guys for having us :)

Craig

Cade is a super smart Aussie who will have you organized and trained in no time. He is a real charmer who will win your affection quickly.  Craig's home is very comfortable and the front porch chairs are a great place to hang out with Cade on a nice day. 

During my sit Cade gave me multiple tours of the neighborhood and his front yard is a dream space for games of fetch. He is a belly rub aficionado so bring your best game! 

By the end of my time with Cade, as he was resting at my feet and enjoying some last pets, I realized that I would miss him when his real life resumed.

Vibeke

Diego and I had a very fun and relaxing time with Vibeke, Jeff and Kittykins. We were left with very thorough instructions and communication was flowing. The house is well equipped with everything you would need for a home away from home experience and kittykins is a playful and happy companion and is definitely the boss of the house :) I would recommend this sit to anyone! The castle is amazing and the town is beautiful and there are lovely walks and plenty to entertain in the local vicinity. Thanks again !
