Cat Sitters in Waterford, VA

Nadine

Nadine is such a warm, caring and thoughtful person, and was truly the most wonderful cat and home sitter. Communication was a breeze and during introductions she took the time to thoroughly get to know and understand our cats, their quirks, and their needs. While we were away, we had complete peace of mind because we knew our cats were in the best possible hands. Nadine often sent us photos, which was wonderful because we could see our cats were having an absolute ball with her! Our home was spotless and she took such good care of everything. Nadine is truly among the best sitters we have ever had, and we highly recommend her.

Sharon

Sharon was just a wonderful sitter. She has an engaging, positive personality and is full of energy. We were happy with the updates and photos of 2 content Goldens, whether on a trail or chilling by her feet. It is so wonderful to go away knowing your fur babies are loved and cared for in their own home. Will need to come up with a trip so we can invite this special lady back.

Kate

Super organised, enjoyed my fastidious details, cared for the dogs like her own. Really clean and tidy and very content hounds when I got back. I would not hesitate to recommend Kate - she was absolutely awesome. Brilliant updates too and we even had a video call with the dogs when I was away. 10 stars if I could! Thank you! Please come back!

Yunice

Yunice and Shin were wonderful dog sitters. Very communicative and sweet to our dog Titi. They were also incredibly respectful of our home and left it clean and Tidy. I would definitely invite them to sit again. Alyse

Andre

Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She cared for my Haley, sent me snapshots and left my home as tidy as she found it! Would definitely have her again!

Linda

Linda was absolutely amazing at caring for Kea and I would have her do so again in a heartbeat. Kea went into her first heat before Linda arrived and Kea was in heat the entire time Linda was here. That meant that Linda needed to take out Kea more than usual, change the mini pads and diapers that we used on Kea to keep things, and Kea, clean, and ensure that Kea did not encounter any male dogs on walks, etc. Linda also was very attentive to Kea in addition to this - snuggling with her and keeping her comfortable. Linda came a day early to help everyone settle in (and it helped us too so we could pack!) and stayed a day later since our unexpected flight change got us in in the evening vs afternoon. The house was neat and tidy and well maintained. If you have an opportunity for Linda to sit for you - do it!

Gina

I would recommend Gina anytime! This was my first time using Zeewoi - I had a few growing pains with it but Gina was incredibly helpful and trusted during the process. She provided me with great updates of my pet and I felt so much better knowing he was so well cared for. Thank you Gina!

Francesca

Francesca put me totally at ease while I was on an international trip. She met me ahead of time and asked important questions about my home and my 2 cats, and during my trip she sent me great updates. My home was spotless when I returned and my cats were happy. :) I highly recommend her!

Audrey

Audrey was a fantastic host who was very attentive to Aka and the house during her stay. If you get a chance to have her care for your furkid, I highly recommend it. Thank you again Audrey for taking great care of Aka for a week!

Monica

Monica was great and very responsive! She was patient with my kitten and made sure to keep me updated. I came home to a very clean house and a happy kitty!

Lee

We came back to a happy dog! Thanks Lee!

Julia

Julia & David were wonderful pet and house sitters. Fortunately we were able to meet in person prior to our departure to give them the lay of the land. Julia's background as a Veternarian was an added bonus. They communicated daily with updates and photos of our Pomeranian, Teddy. Our house was left spotless! David also did some light repairs in our lanai/patio. I highly recommend Julia and David for pet /house sitting.

Richard

We have just Had the pleasure of having Susie and Tim house and dog sit for us.
Our dog Sheba was so well taken of - she was exercised daily and went everywhere with Tim & Susie including a kids birthday party. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring and very obvious animal loving couple to take care of her. We received regular updates and photos of her adventures. This really gave us real peace of mind.
On return our home was in immaculate condition - With the added bonus of fresh bread milk and eggs, as well as a delicious chocolate slice, all complimented with two gorgeous flower arrangements.
Tim took great care of the pool and the house was left in better shape than when we left. 
We highly recommend Tim & Susie as exceptional house sitters and would welcome them back with open arms.

Pauline

Francesca was lovely - we were delighted to meet her the day before we left to hand over the key. We had no qualms leaving Ziggy with her - she was friendly and a truly nice person.  She kept in regular contact sending pics and keeping us updated. Highly recommend Francesca and would not hesitate to have her looking after Ziggy again.
