Pet Sitters in Woodbridge, NJ

Aurora

Aurora and Elie arrived before I left for my business trip. And they were super nice and we got to chat together a bit. I got updates a few times during the weekend, with a few pictures and detailed updates of how my cats were doing. My place was very clean when I came back and the kittens were happy. Would recommend them for sure.

Joe

Joe took great care of our cat Goose and left our apartment cleaner than when he arrived! This is our second time having him stay, and Goose loves having him around. Joe sends lots of videos and photos so we feel so comfortable leaving him in his care. We're grateful for his excellent service and would have him back to look after Goose again!

Jordan & Rachel

Rachel and Jordan were so lovely! They took fantastic care of my pup (Boo) and cared for my apartment as if it were their own. They are a wonderful couple, are super responsive and Boo immediately loved them! If you're looking for a reliable sitter, look no further! I would recommend Rachel and Jordan to anyone I know and wouldn't hesitate to have them look after Boo again. Thank you both so much! <3

Emante

We love having Emante come sit! As usual, he cuddled and spoilt my meowing brat perfectly. When I walked in the door after my trip, it took her an hour or so to forgive me for not being him. This was the third time I left my kitty in his warm care, so there’s not much more I can write that I haven’t already in previous reviews. Let the repeating invitations to sit speak for themselves. :)

Fabian-Carlos

Fabian-Carlos was great. Very efficient Super easy communication, hey send me an update about my cat with a picture everyday which is always great, he took good care of my home too! Everything was clean and tidy amd in place when I returned. Thank you again!

Tatiana

Tatiana and Eric were absolutely fantastic, we truly could not have asked for any better people to care for our fur bbs while we were away. We wish that we could give them more than a 5-star review and if you are lucky enough to have them apply for your pet/house sit do not hesitate in engaging them. You will not be disappointed. We wholeheartedly recommend them. From the very beginning when we started communicating with Tati and Eric, they made us feel so comfortable, their well thought out questions put as at ease and it quickly became clear that they really care about and love animals. At our request, they arrived a few days early to get to know Keena, Ben and Rustle which we so appreciate and made the transition so much easier (on us). Ben loved them immediately and continues to head towards their room to sleep at night haha. Keena and Rustle are both a little slower to warm up but the fact that they did and so quickly was amazing, especially Rustle. Rustle really doesn’t warm up to many people and seeing videos of him getting love and attention made us feel so happy. We usually come back to a stressed cat so the fact that he didn’t even seem all that excited to see us speaks volumes about the care and attention he (they) received. While here they went above and beyond to care for our bbs and home, as well, their level of communication was just perfect which made us feel even more confident. Plus, if they noticed anything was off they would reach out right away to make sure that it was normal behavior. The whole housesit was seamless, they are clearly experienced sitters and loved our bbs like they were their own. Not to mention that our house was spotless upon our return!! You want Tati and Eric to be your sitters, trust us!! Eric and Tatiana are also just lovely people, we really enjoyed spending time with them before and after the sit and would welcome them back anytime. We wish them all the best in their travels and would love to think our paths will cross again in the future. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you both so much!

Joan

Joan was incredible during her stay at our home with our dog, Obi. She was so communicative and went above and beyond in terms of keeping the house clean and ensuring our home was in order and Obi was well taken care of. We’d love to host her again and anyone booking her could rest assured that their home and pets were in good hands! She respected that we were on vacation but also seemed to read my mind around when to send updates, and asked questions as they came up. Thank you Joan!!

Reem

She was very friendly, kind and well organised. It was a pleasure speaking to Reem in the lead up and during the time we were away. I would definitely recommend her.

Luz Marina

I picked the perfect sitter for Jackie! Luz took amazingly good care of her and sent me daily updates and photos. Jackie took to her right away and that made me so happy. During the sit, Jackie had some health issues and Luz and her nearby family were right on top of everything, taking her to the vet (even in the middle of the night) monitoring her food and water (and pee and poop!) and keeping me informed every step of the way. It's scary to be out of town when your pet is sick, but I knew she was in excellent hands and they really put my mind at ease. They all went above and beyond for my sweet kitty, and I am so grateful for their kindness. Because this was Luz' first sit, she was ably assisted by her family Clara and Khamille also from zeewoi- I would whole heartedly recommend them as well. The house was in perfect condition when I returned and Luz is very welcome to come back again. I know Jackie misses her already!

Pearl

Pearl was wonderful! Milo was very happy when I came home and had happy photos sent to me throughout her stay. Pearl also left my apartment clean and organized. It was a pleasure to have her.

Julie

Julie was an absolute lifesaver as our cat sitter! She was incredibly communicative, keeping us updated regularly, which gave us such peace of mind. Reliable and friendly, she took great care of our cat Sebastian, even handling a mishap when he peed on her backpack with such kindness and grace. Julie also left our home spotless, and we came back to everything neat and tidy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Sunny

We have been so fortunate to meet Sunny here on zeewoi. She has come back to our home again and again, and each time she takes excellent care of our two dogs and our house. I would recommend her to anyone!

Stephen

Really enjoyed the weekend here. House is spacious and comfortable. Amazing location, close to Malahide village and Portmarnock. Lots of lovely walks. Daisy is an adorable, friendly dog. Easy to look after and loves cuddles. Stephen was friendly and nice to meet. Good communication. Highly recommend this sit.

Lynne & Jeremy

I really enjoyed meeting Lynne and Jeremy (and Teazle).  They were so kind and welcoming. Their accommodation was beautiful and I hope Teazle had a really good time whilst with us. I appreciated they’d left clear suggestions/instructions. The gerbils were great too.  We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had such a brilliant stay in a beautiful part of the world. More importantly we hope Teazel had a good time with us.

Kara and Vikram

I had a great time with Tammy! She's super sweet and loves going out for walks and picnics in the park. Kara was very responsive during my stay and super well organized. The location is great too, right in the West Loop by Greektown and very walkable. 10/10 petsitting experience:)

Diana & Terry

We had a fabulous time sitting for Diana and Terry! 

Kacie is such a wonderful dog. Very loving, sucky, sweet and polite!  We took her on many adventures  including hikes, car trips, coffee dates, and golf cart rides!  She LOVED chasing a ball and snuck in the occasional swim in the pool! 

Diana and Terry are gracious hosts, communicated really well and had everything ready for us to make our sit easy. Their home is beautiful and the community was beyond expectaions. 

We could not have had a better two weeks!

joanne

I had such a lovely time caring for Marshmallow, Fluffy, and Dave Junior. I miss them already! ……. Firstly, Marshmallow, who is super soft and snuggly (when she chooses!), was a delight. She made me laugh often (one of the many reasons I love cats!). Mornings sitting on the bench in the kitchen watching Marshmallow outside attempting to catch flies(?) bugs(?) were quite entertaining. Periodically, she’d decide she needed to come inside (because fly hunters like her do need a break, after all!). But soon after, she’d return to continue her important work. I loved my evenings with her, snuggling while watching a show and experiencing her playful kitteny-ness.

Dave Junior and Fluffy, wow, I love these bunnies! I spent much time around them, just hanging out in the backyard with a cup of tea while they had free-roaming afternoon hops. I find it fascinating watching their behavior and how they engage with each other. Dave Junior is a complete snuggle-bunny and would happily snuggle against my chest or sit on my lap for an extended time. Fluffy takes longer to warm up (and catch, until she knows you!), so I was well enamored when I earned her trust enough to have her not only sitting on my lap but climbing over me and perching on my shoulder!

Joanne and Jesper are wonderful, laid-back, and easy to communicate with. They have made a beautiful home, which was a lovely retreat from the world during the nine days I spent there. I so relished my time with their animal crew that I rarely left the house, mostly just staying there and working. It is an easy and pleasant jaunt to get into London, though, if you need to. ..... I would happily sit for them again (and hope to someday!), and I very highly recommend.

Ella

I absolutely loved Ella and Matty - they are an amazing couple. Loving and caring parents to Milo and Effy. I would pet-sit for them any time. They made me feel welcomed and treated me as a family member. Milo and Effy are an absolute joy to take care of - happy and playful. The house in itself is like a little peaceful corner of heaven. Filled with plants, art and books. You can spend your evenings watching movies on the coziest couch and get some sun during the day on the porch. I’m looking forward to coming back in the future!
