Cat Sitters in South Peabody, MA

Craig

Craig and Jon were the best. We couldn't have hoped for better people to take care of our cats and our home. They are exactly how they come across on their profile - Friendly, professional, trust worthy and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed getting their updates and pictures and it was such a joy to come back to a cosy, tidy home. The cats loved them. We feel truly lucky to have met them and we hope they can come back to sit for us in the future.

Meg

Meg and her mom were great! It was very comforting to know that the two of them were taking care of the pups and my plants. They are both very sweet, kind and thoughtful. I've noticed all the little treats and toys they bought the pups which they love and have been playing with. Meg was patient with me and all my worries and is a thoughtful communicator. I can tell the pups miss them and I'm grateful they were shown so much love.

Alexander

Alex and his friend were great sitters while we were gone. He made sure he was doing the right things with the dogs and left the place very clean!

Elizabeth

This was my second? third? time booking Lizzy and she was phenomenal - my dog got plenty of love and pets, frequent updates, and she left my place super clean! I would book Lizzy any time she's available!

Janet

We did not get a chance to meet Janet but she was a lovely sitter. She seemed to genuinely enjoy hanging out with our dogs and sent great photos and video. Communication was excellent and house was very clean. Highly recommended!

Jenn

Jenn probably spoils my dog even more than I do. As always, it is such a pleasure to have her. I am completely hands off when Jenn is with my dog because I know she’s in the best possible hands!

Janessa

It was such a pleasure to have Janessa take care of our cat and home for over two weeks. It was clear she was spending time with him, he seemed so chill on our return, which hasn’t been true other times we’ve traveled. The house was incredibly clean on our return. While we were away, Janessa was responsive when we reached out and proactive in her care of Pokey.

Moore & Diane

Once again, Diane and Bud did not disappoint--and they set the bar pretty high the last time they stayed with Ruby! We'd hoped to be done with our remodel project before this visit, but Bud and Diane dealt with the coming and goings of contractors without issue. We received regular updates and photos while we were away--always appreciated!! We came home to a content and resting Ruby and a clean house. We really appreciate the care and love both Ruby and our home receive when Diane and Bud visit! Could we be so lucky to have them visit again?!?!?

Shirley

Shirley and her husband Brian stayed with Luna for 10 days while we visited friends on the West Coast. Luna lived her best life with lots of walks and extra love with Brian at home too (Luna was Brian’s friendly shadow.) Shirley shared regular fun photo updates. Once again we came home to a happy dog and clean home, complete with some delicious food in the frig and sweet notes around the kitchen. This was our 4th sit with Shirley. We have loved getting to know Shirley and her wonderful family, and feel so lucky that her work brings her regularly to Boston. Thank you Shirley and Brian, we look forward to seeing you again!

Spencer & Izzy

They were great! Easy to communicate and coordinate with and very self sufficient. Would have them back anytime.

Meredith

Meredith was a great pet sitter. She kept us informed every day, took great pictures and videos of our pets, and left our home spotless and our pets happy and clearly well cared for. We’d definitely invite her back!

Stephanie

Stephanie cared for our cats while we were away for six nights and we couldn’t have been happier with her care. First, communication with Stephanie was a breeze from beginning to end. While we were away, she sent photos and texts letting us know how both of our cats were doing. She even sent a little video showing Dexter purring away on her bed – a very good sign! She brushed Daphne at least twice, and Daphne loves her spa time. Stephanie is independent and capable, so I didn’t worry about her being in a new home in a different city. When we returned the house was tidy, and Stephanie even left us some provisions that might become scarce during the corona virus scare. Best of all, our sweet cats were calm and contented when we walked in the door, which is exactly what you want to see!

Dom

We were delighted to welcome Mahran and his family into our home. They looked after Max (our labradoodle) and our house for two weeks whilst we were away in The States on holiday. They regularly sent us photos of Max who was obviously enjoying himself with some new people to play with! When we returned from holiday the house was spotless. Sadly we didn't get a chance to say thank you as they had to leave a couple of hours before we returned but if they ever want to stay in the UK again they would be more than welcome to come back. Thoroughly recommend!

Jessica

Kim was our first Zeewoi we found and boy did we luck out with her. She really set the bar high for everyone else. From day one she exemplified nothing but kindness and professionalism. She is also an extremely thoughtful person. She came in early enough for us to show her around and waited for us to return from our trip before taking off to make sure everything was alright after spending 2 weeks taking care of our cats and our home. She seemed genuinely interested in getting to know us and the cats. She sent us picture and video updates making us feel really comfortable with being away. 

I forgot to request for her to water my plants and she did so no problem after I frantically asked for her help last minute. When we came home, Kim was there waiting with the cats to greet us. She gifted us a super thoughtful gift card to one of our favorite places, our house was cleaner than we left it and you could really tell she created a true bond with our cats. They were even waiting outside the door after she left for a while and sat around the guest door hoping she would come back. Safe to say, we hope she comes back some day!
