Pet Sitters in South Blooming Grove, NY

Milton

Milton was the perfect dog sitter for Aldo. We would have him back anytime! Caring, organized, great communication. Took Aldo on amazing walks and activities. He is such a happy dog!! 10/10 from us.

Randi & Perseus

I returned home to an extremely happy chappy, Dante dog had obviously been very well cared for, he is a complete boy and as such can be a bit of a handful at first, the family dealt with him perfectly, quite clearly true animal lovers! What a thoroughly lovely family too, both the children are polite, well mannered & respectful & Rand & Percy were attentive, kind & communicative house sitters sending plenty of photo updates. I felt my home & Dante dog had been loved & respected whilst I’d been away, again what a fantastic family we’d welcome them back anytime! Thank you for taking such good care of the little pudding whilst I was away.

Katelyn

Katelyn was a great house sitter. She and Stan were quiet and respectful, they communicated about the pets, and left the house spotless. Would recommend.

Daye & Jun

Excellent, wonderful and amazing! This was our first time using zeewoi. I already had high expectations because my friends who turned me onto the service have loved their housesitters. Daye and Jun exceeded my expectations and then some! Primarily, I wanted someone who would take care of my garden and indoor plants as well as I do. I knew it was a challenging task to expect someone to do something like you would. But when we returned from our three week vacation, our garden looked amazing. I suspect, my plants would rather have Daye and Jun living here instead of me. And what a bonus! We left our house spotless and when we returned it was even cleaner than we left it. Still not sure how Daye cleaned our stove top to perfection. Really folks, I cannot recommend this couple more highly. I hesitate to say that because it probably means they will be in such high demand, and won't be available the next time I need them, but I wish the very best for them. And lucky you if you should be able to reserve them when you go out of town. If I could give them twenty stars I would.

Ellen

On a scale of 1 to 5, I give Ellen a 10! She did a most exceptional job taking care of my very very shy kitty as well as my extensive gardens and my home. Ellen was incredibly attentive and loving and intuitive in relating to my cat. This was apparent from the beginning, and allowed me to feel more comfortable being away from my pet than I have in a very long time. Ellen also sent frequent informative text updates, as well as pics and videos, which were all very reassuring. She was also very responsible and thoughtful in taking care of my gardens and houseplants, and she left my home in pristine condition. I can’t imagine a better housesitter!

Amy

We had the delight of hosting Amy and her Mom. They were very clean and responsible. They followed all of our instructions aside from sending daily updates. Due to our pets being older, we tend to worry a bit and found ourselves messaging to check on them rather than receiving updates. If you would like updates often, make sure to communicate that early on. I would recommend Amy for any sits you have available.

Mary

We were very nervous as this is our first time with zeewoi AND the first time leaving our crew with a stranger. Also we just renovated our house and were very worried it would get damaged. But we had no reason at ALL to worry! Mary did an outstanding job. We kept in contact via cell phone and she sent pictures every day and kept in touch about all the things she was doing. Since it was thanksgiving and her kids (adults) were nearby she asked if it would be ok if they joined her for part of the sit. We were also nervous about this but again - no need. The house is clean, the pets seem to be super happy and healthy - WONDERFUL experience! I can't recommend Mary enough :)

Pamela

Pam was very thoughtful and proactive. I appreciated the feeling of security knowing Pam was here. My plants looked amazing as well. The home was just as I left it and the sheets were cleaned for our arrival which was amazing!

Loica

Loica and her daughter were great cat and house sitters for our 6 weeks away. Loica was proactive and very helpful with any house or cat concerns, which was super appreciated. We came home to very happy cats (they clearly loved them and Loica made a special effort to bond with Astrid who is a scaredy cat), and our house was in good shape. We're hoping we can do the trade again in the future. A big thank you to both of them!

Pamela

Pamela was THE best sitter I've ever had. She was kind and loving to my pets, going above and beyond to care for them. She was so respectful of my home and took great care of my house. Lastly, she was communicative yet independent. Pamela was a dream sitter and I can only recommend her for everyone's next sit.

Adriana

These 2 were as good as you can get at petsitting. I enjoyed getting to know them and their little dog Pepe was not a problem at all. All the dogs got along very well and played together

Dana

Dana was great she went above and beyond loving our dogs and caring for the house

Amanda

We loved our house sit with Hector at Amanda and Cal’s beautiful home. Hector was such a sweet, friendly, and easy-going dog. He was extremely well-behaved and we enjoyed taking Hector for walks in the nearby park and playing catching ball with him. The house was in a great location, just a twenty-minute tube ride to the city centre, cozy and comfortable, and we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The backyard was also a great place to play with Hector. Amanda and Cal are a delightful young couple; communicating with them was super easy. They left clear instructions on how to care for Hector and were always accessible when we had any questions. We had a great time and would highly recommend looking after with Hector to anyone looking for a lovely house-sit in London with a great furry companion.

Ashley

Tekka is truly an awesome dog! She is cheerful, playful, cuddly, and docile. My husband Michael and I had a wonderful time sitting Tekka. The area is so lovely that we did not want to leave. Central Park is very close by, and Tekka enjoyed having many walks to this park, as well as the River Side Park, which is also very pleasant! Ashley was quick to text back if we had any questions. Their home is gorgeous and very comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend this sit and hope to be back!

Sonia and David

Sonia and David were wonderful hosts.  They left us a lovely meal for our first night.  The home was comfortable and the dogs were an absolute pleasure to look after.  They are very affectionate and well behaved.  Would highly recommend to other house sitters.

A'magine

I had such a great experience keeping Nova and Boogie! A’magine’s home is outside of the city, quiet, and has mountain views... Nova loves to be outside and Boogie would lay near me while I worked from the living room most days. It took a day or two for Boogie to warm up to me, but when he did he was SUCH a sweetheart. Nova is more outgoing. My first night she curled up by my legs and propped her little head on my knee 🥺😻. I would absolutely come back to watch them any time. They stole a little piece of my heart, and so did the town of Placitas. It was the perfect getaway for me, and they were the best little companions!

Lawrence

Lawrence small cute house was very convenient for exploring the area of Oliveria do Hospital.  We stayed for 9 days and did a lot of walks with Suki the young dog who enjoys her long walks.  She is a very loveable and playful dog who Lawrence is in the process of training.  She enjoyed being outside most of the day and was very good indoors both at night or when we went out.  Her feeding regime was easy - making vegetable rice in the slow cooker - and she ate with gusto.  The two cats Bella and Dottie were easy to care for and very lovable and best of friends to each other cuddling up at night.  Lawrence was easy to communicate with before and during the sit and also gave us a detailed verbal instructions for whilst he was away.  The area is lovely with its large rocks, small forested areas and scattered smallholdings.  Thanks Lawrence for letting us care for your special family.

Melissa

Melissa was super communicative and accommodating. The sit was laid back and very relaxing. The neighborhood was great and parking was pretty accessible and easy. I had to work a lot so wish I had more time there. Bosco and Juju are adorable and super easy going. Bosco does get excited and pulls on the leash but has a special collar for it. Juju is hands down something straight out of a cartoon with those big gigantic eyes and adorable/funny demeanor. Bosco is very independent and saucy and enjoys doing his own thing, especially running around the yard. Really enjoyed my time with these two. :) Hope you had good travels, Melissa!
