Pet Sitters in New York County, NY

Walker

Walker was a calm and steady presence for the boys and was respectful of our home, keeping it clean and tidy. Highly recommended as a sitter.

Jennifer

Jen was wonderful!! Couldn’t recommend more! Your furry friends would be lucky to have her

Michael

Michael was above and beyond what we expected. His kindness and compassion for our fur family was nothing short of amazing. He took care of everything while we were away and updated us often with pictures and concerns. We all wanted to adopt this amazing young man! Thank you so much Michael!!

Richard

This was our first time using zeewoi and we're so happy to have found Richard at such last notice! He was fantasic! Not only was he great with the critters but he was great at taking care of the house and hundreds of plants we have! We'd highly recommend him!!

Max

Max and Alizae did a great job caring for our cats! They were organized and communicative throughout the sit. The apartment was left clean. They were keen to learn the personality of each of our cats and they were well taken care of throughout the trip. We would recommend them!

Nikki

Nikki has been fantastic in every way. From when we spoke the first time, to when I met her to when I needed her to stay longer due to last minute flight cancellations. The boys also really enjoyed her company and she kept us updated with daily pics! Thank you so much for all your help. You’ve been incredible!

Fang

Fong really came through for us last minute. She was flexible and communicative in setting up the visit and throughout. Raggie got lots of walks and movie nights! Thank you, Fong!

Georgie

Wonderful to have Georgie come and stay. And judging from the photos, the cat clearly adored her. A totally seamless experience! Georgie was available to chat before, which was great, and she left the apartment in great shape!! Would absolutely have Georgie come and stay again.

Nina

I can't say enough about how wonderful Nina is as a petsitter and a person. Making the initial arrangements for the sit was super easy as Nina was super easy to communicate with and was very responsive. She was flexible in terms of the dates of the sit and arrived at the perfect time to be able to meet Olive and go on a walk with Ess and get to know the area. It was immediately clear that she has a sincere affection for dogs a natural ability to care for them, she became fast friends with Olive almost immediately. As a very experienced traveler, Nina was very independent and didn't need any guidance on how to navigate Athens. During the trip, Nina provided regular updates and photos and it was clear that Olive was in good hands. She took Olive on long walks regularly so I know Oli was very happy. Since I came back from traveling a few days before Ess, Nina stayed some extra days and continued to help with Olive so I could readjust and return to work, which was a huge help. It also allowed getting to know her and her amazing travel adventures more, which I am grateful for. She left the apartment clean and even washed her sheets, which we didn't even ask for or expect but of course, is highly appreciated. I can tell Oli misses her already, Nina would be welcome to stay with us anytime. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

Lauren & Sean

Power couple! These two took such great care of our dogs for the week while we were away. One of our dogs Ruben is a pill some of the time and these two dealt with it so well. No hesitation welcoming these two back into our home

Stephanie

Stephanie was most excellent in all respects. She was able to come visit before the sit and immediately connected with Dulce. She is both professional and caring in equal measures. While away, she was totally responsive and when we returned from our trip, the house was immaculate and thoroughly clean. Dulce was sad to see her go. We give Stephanie our highest recommendation.

Milly

Milly looked after my pets for a long weekend and when I returned, all my pets were calm and seemed happy! Thanks so much!

Cory

Peggi did an absolute fantastic job house sitting and caring for our dog, Trixie. She left the house in the same great condition as we had left it, which we really appreciated. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing everything was being taken care of so well. Peggi's attention to detail and care for Trixie were evident, and we would definitely recommend her services. Thanks again, Peggi!

Clare and Ben

Otis is a absolute delight to care for.  THe home is located in a beautiful mountainous location and was very comfortable.

Federico & Emma

We had such a great time in Berlin at Emma and Fede’s apartment!! They were so welcoming and hospitable to us and we really enjoyed our time getting to know them. Mochi and Chotta were such sweet dogs. Emma and Fede were incredibly helpful and prepared us for the weekend by showing us the daily routine with the dogs and doing a morning walk with us to show us the neighborhood and how Mochi reacts to other dogs. Both dogs did great all weekend!! Mochi was cute and cuddly while Chotta was kind and chill. Emma and Fede were warm, kind hosts and we are so glad we met them and their dogs!!

Iris & Jason

Iris and Jason were great!! They left me with perfect instructions, a beautiful clean home and lots of snacks, a bottle of wine and fresh flowers!! They went above and beyond as hosts!! The pool was amazing!
AND CHARLIE!! What a very sweet, affectionate and smart guy. He was wonderful to hang out with for a week—fun to play with and HILARIOUS 😆

joe

Joe and his family were very welcoming. I had the pleasure of meeting Buster beforehand and he is one of the sweetest dogs to mind. I really enjoyed my time with Buster and was sad to say goodbye.

Sarah

I thoroughly enjoyed my time looking after Sarah’s home and wonderful cat Reggie. Sarah was super communicative and left me really helpful instructions and advice, which made everything run smoothly. Her home is well positioned to explore North Wales and in a very peaceful location. As for Reggie, he absolutely stole my heart with his sweet and playful personality. He is very chatty, affectionate, and easy to look after. A great sit overall :)

Sophie

Sophie was warm and welcoming. I was privileged to join the family for dinner the night before they left and had a chance to enjoy good food and conversations. Marv is simply marvellous. He is a joy to walk and he really does love his walks. He is calm and friendly and enjoys eating the wheat in the fields!  Sophie’s home is surrounded by beautiful Essex countryside so it’s quiet and peaceful with  plenty of places to walk. Also a short drive from local town.  I hope I will get invited back.
