Pet Sitters in New Almaden, CA

Rachel

This was my first zeewoi experience, and I am very happy to have met Rachel. I interviewed two other people before settling with her. I will definitely reach out to Rachel again for future sits. During my 10-day absence, Rachel was consistently responsive whenever I sought updates. Her care was so exceptional that even my most skittish cat, who usually hides from strangers, was comfortable from day 1 to show her belly to Rachel. It was clear to me that both of my cats were at ease with her. When I got back home, my place was exactly how I had left it: very clean and organized. I wholeheartedly trust Rachel and highly recommend her.

Ellen

Ellen was absolutely incredible! She was very communicative and a joy to coordinate with. We knew our house and pets were in excellent hands while we were away. When we returned home, the house was very clean and the cats were healthy and happy. We would definitely invite Ellen back to sit for us.

Lissa & Tim

Lissa and Tim were wonderful cat sitters! Before the stay, they communicated clearly. During the stay, they sent photos and updates of our kitties, as we had agreed upon. Our 2 cats were happy and relaxed when we came home--it was clear that they had been well cared for. And our home was nice and tidy, too. We had a short, in-person visit before we left our home and cat in Lissa & Tim's care, so we got to interact with them directly. They are kind, sincere people and seemed quickly at home with our kitties. I recommend them!

Liv & Ryan

A great couple who looked after our home and dogs perfectly for a month. It was great to be able to spend some time with Liv and Ryan when we got back home and show them some of the hilites of tge area

Kristen

I will first start by saying Kristen is so stylish. She arrived in such a cute outfit. I had to let everyone know lol. She is my fourth sitter and quite possibly the best sitter. I would like to acknowledge her patience when a maintenance issue happened. I had a lot of anxiety knowing she was dealing with it while I was away in the USA. Thank you so much for being understanding. Kristen has great energy. She left me a cute little note on my whiteboard when I arrived home and even bought me a cute Mexico key chain. My pets were well taken care of. I would pick Kristen to sit my pets again for sure.

Elcee

We have used her several times and all I can say is that she is great, No problems what so ever. She kept us informed every couple of day with photos of our pups.

Julia

Julia was a delightful sitter! She was very communicative and our arrival and departure schedule was easily worked out. She sent me check in picture of the dogs each day and wasn’t hesitant to ask any questions about the dogs if needed but also was very self sufficient. She left the house perfectly clean by even washing all the sheets and towels, running the dishwasher, sweeping and taking the trash out. 10 out of 10 house sitter and would be happy for her to stay again.

Kim

Kim was lovely, the dogs were very comfortable around her. She has a lovely way with animals. Our diabetic dog was in great form when we returned. We are very grateful for the fantastic care Kim gave our dogs.

Evelyn

Our cats are very slow to warm up, but Evelyn was persistent and really up to the task of winning them over. She gave us quick daily updates and after a few days they were settling in and acting more like their normal selves by coming inside at night on their own and sitting on her lap. We enjoyed getting to know Evelyn and would gladly have her back.

Tiffaney

Tiffaney and her family we amazing pet sitters! Our two dogs were well cared for and the house was left in great shape! Appreciated Tiffaney's positive energy and attention to detail throughout the entire experience. Her family got to enjoy the great outdoor activities that Hood River has to offer, and she sought out our local u-pick fruit farms and even left us some yummy homemade blueberry jam! Would highly recommend Tiffaney!

Mary

Mary and Mary, both were wonderful. Left the house in neat and tidy condition, and cookie looking happy and healthy. The pictures they sent were a great comfort and it was nice to see that cookie got along very well with Mary Ann as they went about the city together :)

George

Susan and Randy were great to work with.
All of the dogs have the sweetest temperaments. Old man Jack happened to be a bit of a counter surfer Houdini during my short stay. But they had let me know about that, and everything went well otherwise. I’m just glad he didn’t get into anything bad for him.
The house is quite lovely and a wonderful area. Right on a golf course. Very nice. 🙂

Mia

What an Idyllic experience. The house, the animals and the area were a joy. We would jump at the chance to return. Mia and Christopher very welcoming. Thanks

Julie

Looking after Jet and Ceejay was an absolute delight - they’re incredibly sweet dogs and very easy to care for. Julie was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and she left clear instructions for taking care of ‘the boys’ and her lovely home. It’s a fantastic place, close to the beach for walking the dogs with lots to explore in the local neighbourhood. I’d definitely recommend sitting for Julie and her boys if you get the chance!

Diane

Diane and Vaughan were pleasant and relaxed hosts who welcomed me into their beautiful home.  The setting is picture perfect for relaxation and nature.  Darcy and Kym are interesting and lovable companions.  Both are very gentle and chilled at home, but of course, enjoy their walks. Darcy jumps up at flying anything, even if we mere humans can't see it and Kym loves all the sniffs.  It was a real pleasure.

Dorian

We had a lovely stay in Paarl and felt very welcome in Dorian and Robynes house. The two cats are very lovable and we enjoyed walking the dog while discovering new spaces. We also enjoyed being close to some beautiful cheese and wine farms in the nearby area.

Melissa

The house was amazing. All the amenities you could possibly need. There is sadly only one kitty now but she is precious. She's very shy and mostly comes out at night. If you're lucky enough to get a snuggle you're lucky enough. 
Woolly is just a year old, so still a rambunctious puppy but a sweet soul. I would definitely recommend this sit if you get the opportunity.
