We are so thankful to have Max and Ina take care of our dog Moxie while we were gone.  They provided daily updates and photos, which we appreciated. They were timely with arrival and departure, and left our home very clean, which we appreciate.  Most importantly, Moxie was calm and relaxed when we arrived back. We would highly recommend Max and Ina if you need a Zeewoi.

It was the first time I used zeewoi, and Adam and Claire were a perfect match! I felt slightly hesitated leaving the home but they treated it as it was their own, leaving it tidier than I would normally do I'm afraid. Besides this they took perfect care of the cat, who is pretty high standard in her wishes, and she was a very happy cat! If we would go away again for a longer period of time and Adam and Claire are available, I would def ask them again.

Jennifer and Bez were wonderful from the get go and only got better. This was our longest time away and we were a little nervous to leave everyone- especially since we had a puppy! 

They impressed us from the beginning- showing up on time and asking good questions to make sure it would be a good fit. 

Unfortunately, disaster struck and our puppy got randomly sick with hypertrophic osteodystrophy. They communicated extensively and provided top notch care. This was not an easy job! He had to be carried around, hand fed and given multiple pain meds each day. 

We also had a plumbing issue that they handled seamlessly!

We came home to meticulous notes and a spotless house. 

These guys are as professional as it gets- you’d be lucky to get them!

I had a great time sitting with Chance and Zuzie! Marcy’s home is a really comfortable place to be - I felt immediately at home  - and it’s located in a very safe, quiet, neighborhood. Communication with Marcy was fun and easy throughout the sit, and she worked hard to make me feel welcome. Everything was perfectly clean when I arrived, and she and John made sure that I was comfortable in their wonderful kitchen!  The location is great - close to a variety of outdoor activities as well as Boston and the many, many other places to see and things to do in this area.  That said, you definitely need a car.  

The stars of the sit were of course Chance and Zuzie! They are both very sweet kitties who love scritches, attention, and to be brushed.  They spent most of their time snoozing by a window, where I visited them fairly often throughout the day; they always welcomed me with purrs, biscuits, and stretches, and leaned into the attention. They did make their rounds around the house a few times a day, and Zuzie turned into a lap cat in the evenings while I relaxed on the couch watching television. Chance also liked to be nearby and would relax on the couch with me, but he also enjoyed chasing his wand toy around and was a ton of fun to play with! They both have sweet meows, and I was so excited when they started chatting with me!

I highly recommend this sit to cat lovers and I am very happy to be going back next week!
