Dog Sitters in Timber Ridge, VA

Gayla and Gene are a lovely couple, they are very passionate about dogs and took pride in playing with and walking our two dogs. They also took care of our chickens. They were clean and tidy in the house and we would recommend them to other pet parents.

This was our first experience of sharing our home and labrador with house sitters, and we were a little nervous about being on the other side of the world for three whole weeks. We needn’t have worried. Madelyn and Graydon were super organised and we had excellent communication before and during the stay. Frequent updates on Molly who was clearly happy to have found some younger playmates and thrived, I think she is missing them already. At my request they arrived a day early so we could do a proper hand-over and they were great guests for this time. House was spotless and they left a detailed report of their experiences with the house and Molly which were very helpful as a hand-back. We would jump at the chance of having them here again if they are available.

Lindsay and Kevin sat for us a second time. They were great as usual. Sent wonderful pictures, kitties were in great shape, and the house was nice and clean. Will always welcome them back!

I am lucky to report that I have had another excellent experience with zeewoi. Lisa cared for Olive for 8 nights, and all went well. She was great at communicating, from the initial FaceTime meeting, to questions ahead of time to giving me updates on Olive during the sit. She was helpful and did a few easy errands for me and the house looked great when we got home. Olive was happy and relaxed when we returned, which is the most important thing. Plus she said she enjoyed Olive's company which always makes me happy to hear. You'll be in good hands with Lisa for a sit!

Ibrahim sat for us during a summer weekend. He arrived just before we left on our trip with plenty of time to go over the cat care logistics, and he immediately started connecting with our 3 cats, petting them and playing with them. Ibrahim was communicative throughout the weekend and shared photos of the cats (as well as told us about a tree branch that had fallen in the back yard during a storm). We came back to a clean home, freshly laundered sheets and towels, and happy cats. He also left us some delicious curry he had prepared during his stay! Highly recommend Ibrahim as a cat and house sitter!

Sao was quite a find among the zeewoi community we have come to know and love. One of our repeat sitters suddenly had a family emergency that led to last minute cancellation. We quickly listed our dates and within about an hour, Sao came to our rescue based on a referral from yet another one of our amazing past sitters. Given the personal reference, we didn’t hesitate to accept her application before we even arranged a chat shortly thereafter. Sao literally dropped everything to help us out on a pinch, and we’re so lucky to have met yet another kind, caring and stellar sitter. Our cat Sopo had a badly sprained leg, and Sao kept her comfortable and carefully monitored her need for pain medicine to help her recovery. When we returned, Sopo was back on her feet and both kitties were clearly well loved. You simply won’t find a more kind and caring sitter than Sao. Highly recommended.

Patrick was an excellent house sitter! I was happy to leave my “kids” in his hands!

Sabrina and Caroline were wonderful. They were very concerned for the welfare of my pond and fish. There was an issue with my pond and Sabrina took care of handling the situation to my satisfaction. They are both delightful and I felt that if anything came up, they would be able to handle it and keep me informed.

Kipp has been, by far, the best sitter I could have ever asked for. He kept in contact and asked all the right questions prior to the sit. He reassured that Max was welcoming him into our home even when Max didn’t immediately want to go out on walks. He asked if I needed anything extra (chores) done while he was there and if I needed him to do any laundry before he left. I didn’t ask him to but he even vacuumed before he left. My home was left immaculate and Max seemed at ease when I got home. Nothing is more comforting than knowing your pup had a good time with someone else.

We were so pleased with Oguzhan’s care of Teddy and Jake. Oguzhan’s partner Charlotte was also on the sit, agreed to ahead of time and which we appreciated. Teddy, our friendly little pup was their snuggle buddy and warmed up to Oguzhan right away. Shy Jake isn’t as sociable but was well taken care of with his feeding and insulin shots. Communication was great with daily updates and photos. The house was left very clean, linens washed, mail and packages brought in. We were so pleased to get home to our boys knowing everything went so well. Thank you to Oguzhan & Charlotte!

I was wonderful to work with Trinity leading up to and during the sit. Macy, my dog, looked so happy in the updates Trinity shared during my trip. And she kept the house clean and the plants alive and healthy. Would recommend her to anyone.

Dawn was great with our dog Luna. She communicated well and left everything neat and tidy. I would love to have her come back and sit again!
