Cat Sitters in West Springfield, MA

Em

Em came along with her fellow writer, Holly. They were like having old friends return. They were so kind to bring me books and leave a fantastic meal for me at my late return! Their generosity was much appreciated. I got lots of updates and reassurances during my time away. The animals were content upon my return and the house was tidy. My only suggestion would be to read the welcome guide before arrival so that the animal care routine would not be so novel. I understand sometimes life is very hectic. They were kind to come on short notice.

Melissa & Philip

Missa is a thoughtful and calm person. She was a great presence for my pets. Came home and the house was exactly like I left it. She even folded some laundry I forgot in the dryer. She sent daily photos and reassuring messages. I’d recommend her 1000000%.

Emily

Emily was a fabulous sitter. On her first night, she sent us a photo with one of our senior dogs and said her goal was to become Nellie's best friend by the end of the sit. At that moment we knew we had left the gals (as Emily called them) in the best possible hands. Her communications were excellent before, during, and even after the sit. She left the house spotless, refilling the wood bins for the wood-burning stove even more than we do. It is important to us to know we're leaving our home and our dogs in responsible hands, and we couldn't have made a better choice in that regard. We would eagerly invite her back. We highly recommend Emily.

Mary

Mary was the perfect house sitter for my cats. She is a lovely person, very responsible, and clearly loves animals. And the house was in better condition when I returned than when I left! I would fully recommend her as a house sitter in the future!

Alexandria & Wendy

We were so fortunate to have Ria and Wendy house sit for us and our two senior pets. They genuinely enjoyed caring for our pets, our home and exploring the beaches of Rhode Island. We appreciated the frequent updates and the hand off to and from was seamless. I recommend them highly and would love to have them stay again in the future.

Dix

We really enjoyed the chance to meet Dix and Linda! We were able to get together before the sit for a fun visit, and to tour our home and introduce our dog, Carson. We knew our home and pup would be well looked after so we could enjoy our trip with no worries. We returned to a happy dog and perfectly clean home- and well tended vegetable beds. We look forward to having Dix and Linda come again!!

Meeghan & Mike

Meeghan and her family were amazing cat/house sitters! Reliable, left my house VERY clean, asked lots of great questions, and was really concerned about getting everything "right". With 6 cats that's a lot to keep track of, but she and her family were amazing and we came back to very happy cats! Communication was fantastic, with several pics and updates a day. One of our cats started limping and they got in touch with the Zeewoi vet service to get some medical advice before contacting us to get our input. So very proactive! He turned out to be fine, and the limp went away, but we are very grateful that they were paying such close attention. Fantastic family and can't recommend them enough!

Frank & Amber

Frank and Amber had great communication. Left the house clean and tidy. Had the dogs out on nice long walks and seemed to truly enjoy sitting our eccentric puppers! Lovely folks, we recommend them for anyone looking for great caretakers.

John

John is an amazing dog sitter. Our old pooch took to him immediately as if they were old friends. The night we got back our dog went searching for John at bedtime, missing him already. During his first night at our house a tree fell on our porch and garage. John sent us photos and assured us that no damaged happened to any windows or roofs. Communication was clear and easy and John was quite flexible about timing. Our house was immaculate upon our return and John even managed to get the bed linens washed and dried before we got back. YOU can't go wrong with John.

Michelle & Roman

What an awesome couple! Michelle and Roman were everything we hoped for ... and more. Buzz was well taken care of, pictures of them on the beach, in the yard, relaxing on the deck ... all made us feel very comfortable with our choice. In fact, Michelle and Nadine are looking to find ways to get together in the future just to catch up and laugh. We would have no reservations about providing a great reference for Michelle and Roman, and we would highly recommend using them for your pet/home. You won't be disappointed. Nadine & Jeff

Michelle

Michelle did a superlative job taking care of my house and cat while I was on vacation for 10 days. She was easy to communicate with and responded promptly. She was flexible when I asked if she could add some days onto the stay. Most importantly of all, she took loving care of my cat Jamie and sent me periodic photos of him. Jamie became comfortable with her immediately and in no time he was snuggling with her and sleeping on the bed. Michelle left the house in absolutely pristine condition, which is saying something for my house! ;-) I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for anyone else who would like her sitting services. Thank you Michelle!

Karolina & Ryan

Great sitters! I came home to a happy cat and a clean home.

Anthony and Beth

We truly enjoyed meeting and having Nercy and Gustavo stay at our house with our dogs Olive and Joy.  From the moment we first video chatted with them, their communication was excellent.  They took great care of the dogs and the house.  They even had to deal with some water coming in the basement due to heavy rains.  They sent great picutures and video updates and stayed in touch thoughout the visit.  We came home to a very clean house and two happy pups.  We would highly recommend Nercy and Gustavo!

Teri

We used zeewoi for the first time this week and were lucky enough to have Lisa as our first sitter. She cared for 2 dogs, one 13 years and one 7 months. She was amazing with both of them and I came home to very settled and contented dogs. I felt comfortable with Lisa from the first meeting and found her to be kind, friendly, comfortable, and super helpful. I was running behind schedule as I was preparing to leave town. She offered to come over and walk the dogs while I was preparing. It was so helpful and so thoughtful. I hope that Lisa can stay again and that Ray can join next time. I think you will love her too!
