Dog Sitters in Norbeck, MD

We have been fortunate to have a number of good pet/house sitters for our two rescue cats over the years but Elizabeth is the top of the group! We left for a 16 day trip to South Africa in mid April & felt totally confident that Beth, whom we had used in 2020, would take great care of our home & cats. Beth exceeded our every expectation even though the bar was set quite high! She is totally capable & rose to the occasion when there was an issue with our well water ( needing salt) & carried out the purchase & treating the system with care & precision. Problem solved! She not only takes care of the basic needs of your pets but takes special interest to engage them in play! Our two were nonplussed at our absence & loved having her full attention. All our requests were filled to the letter & I would recommend Elizabeth highly for any pet/house sitting job. She us a delight to work with & even sent photos of our cats for us to enjoy on our trip. Our home was cleaner than we left it & the cats very well taken care of- we are so appreciative & hope she is available for your trip! You will rest easy & your pets will be happy & content.

We've had excellent experiences with zeewoi, but our experiences with Robert and Jane has been absolutely outstanding in all ways - both times they took care of our pets and our house. Our two cats were clearly happy with them - as evidenced by pictures they sent; and they left the house even cleaner and more organized than they found it. If you have the chance to engage Robert and Jane to take care of your pets and property, sign them up right away. They are THE BEST!!!

Lisa and her family arrived right as scheduled and were so much fun to work with. We knew our pets would be on good hands and they communicated their condition to us regularly. If they ever get a chance to come our way again, we would use them (and recommend them) without hesitation.

Jane and David were great sitters. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and our dogs were happy and well cared for. We would be happy to have them sit for us again sometime.

Tarek did a wonderful job watching my two dogs. He checked in regularly with me sending pictures and videos. Both of my pups loved their time with him and we all would be happy to have him visit again. I really appreciated how clean he left my place as well.

Aside from the pets being well taken care of, and the house being perfectly spotless when we came home, Alice and Kirk were flexible and highly communicative. They even rolled with the punches when after boarding our flight that morning and before they arrived, our dog decided to break out of the back fence for the first time in years and ran to a neighbor! Not the way we wanted their stay to start, but they handled it extremely well. They were kind enough to let us know about a broken doorhandle on the of the bedrooms we never use so that we can get that fixed for the next time someone stays. We would most definitely welcome them back again.

Adriana sat for us while we were away for our wedding and mini-moon. She lives nearby, so it was great to have her come by beforehand to meet the cats and do a runthrough. It was a relief to not have to worry about communications while we were busy with the wedding. She seemed to quickly forge a good bond with our cats, and sent us pics when we requested them. She was also happy to stay an extra night when we decided to extend our trip due to an unforeseen circumstance, which was greatly appreciated. We came back to a clean home, happy cats, and well-tended plants!

Lee was terrific,I loved her company the night she stayed before my trip. I knew she would settle and love the dogs. Lee sent me pictures and messaged me regularly. On my return the apartment was beautifully tidy all in all a truly wonderful experience. Thank you trusted house and pet sitters and a big thank you to Lee

Sam kept in contact with us and sent pics occasionally. However, the thing that was unacceptable was how little he cleaned the litter box. When we arrived home, my husband checked the litter box as we always do. We have two cats, so it is important that the box is scooped twice a day. This is in my welcome guide. When my husband pulled the litter box out of its holding place, the box was very full of litter, feces, and large clumps of urine. It looked as if the box hadn't been cleaned in days. I immediately messaged Sam and told him that this was unacceptable and we would not have him stay again. (He had asked for another opportunity to stay.) His response was that he scooped the feces once a day and did not realize he was supposed to scoop the whole box. Wow! That response is very disingenuous. It was not worth a response. I would not recommend him if you have cats.

Diana was a delight. She was in residence with my husband, my 9 month old GMD, Finnegan, and a cat. She was fully present with Finn, and consciously engaged him as a bit of a difficult personality. She used her middle school teacher skills to reinforce and distract him, and to try to engage him as best she could. She and hubby did great together, and was an easy and relaxed houseguest. Highly recommend.

Mary was an amazing pet sitter. Ruthi was well taken care of and she left the apartment spotless. She sent photos often. Ruthi, who is well known in the neighborhood was her usual friendly self, this was enthusiastically shared by our neighbor. She is welcome back anytime she wants.

I would not hesitate to have Lindsay and Shayne take care of my house and pets. They were so kind and thoughtful, even brightening our return with a vase of sunflowers! They cleaned up better than our housekeeper. Most importantly, they really played with and exercised our Labrador. I could tell from the photos they sent while we were away that he was extremely comfortable and relaxed with two new people in his house. Thank you for being such great Zeewoi!
