Dog Sitters in Yorktown, MD

Laurie, her daughter Ellie, and her husband Bryan were all involved in looking after my house and my dog Juno. Juno can be challenging the first day of a sit because of separation distress and a tendency to be skittish with new people. Laurie and her family handled all this in stride and by the end of the sit, she reported that Juno was enjoying her walks and playing with Ellie. Thank you Laurie, Ellie, and Bryan for your patience and care in looking after my shy little dog and my home.

Sonja and Adam are amongst our favorite sitters. They were timely, easy to communicate with, sent updates, and left our apartment spotless. Our dog is a 65 pound German Shepherd/Pit mix. She's an absolute love bug, but has some dog leash aggression that can be difficult to handle in our busy neighborhood. I always like to mention this in a review in case someone has a similar dog, so you know that Sonja and Adam handled her like a dream. They're welcome back any time!

Pros: Brandi was a very nice person. I came home to my kitty and she was all good. She was flexible with her dates. Cons: Brandi stated she left August 11th but the video shows her leaving on the 10th, so she was dishonest. She mention my cat food having bugs in them so she threw out a whole half bag of hard food. My apartment is kept very tidy, theee only reason flies come out is if fruit is left out and she must have left food or something out that attracted the bugs. We originally discussed her only house sitting a month so she could allow client's from peer space in the apartment and sell off or receive furniture. I was lucky enough that she agreed to sit for meadow as well. My gut told me to hold off on peer space because I was getting good cell service at my silent retreat. I'm so so so so glad I did after seeing how she left my apartment floors and bathroom. She would of had to clean up after each peer space and I feel clients would have not been happy with the cleanliness. I don't even have living room furniture yet, just boxes so it should have been a breeze to sweep, vacuum, mop. There's plenty of cleaning rags and cleaners. I have white floors and she must have used dirty mop water all throughout the floor. Dirty streaks and foot prints all over the floor. She left the dirty mop water with the mop in it right in the living room. When mopping a bug place like mine you at least need to change the water four to six times. There was cereal left out and open. Cat food was left open on the counter. Water bowl didn't look clean, full of fur on top. Cereal crumbs on the floor. Coffee bean sprinkles on the cabinets. I usually leave my dishwasher cracked. She must have closed it shut and never opened it ever....because four wooden pieces inside molded over. It was full of clean dishes, pots, pans, utensils, etc. Her hair products on the sink. Empty raw sugar box left in cabinet. Bathroom: sink was sticky, toilet had poop stains (smh I had to clean), and my precious bath tub was filthy. There was black specks in it and I had to wash it four times at least before soaking. I looked forward to coming home and relaxing but I cleaned 3-4 hours. I didn't except her to leave it immaculate however this was more than just touching up for me. There were multiple finger and hand prints on the walls from make up and whatever else was on her hands. This was in my hallway, bedroom, and bathroom. Bedroom: bedroom was ok, some cereal crumbs on the bed and under but nothing major. The bedding was left in the dryer, which was ok but it smelled odd so I re washed it. Two weeks in and she sent a few photos but definitely not daily. Also, two weeks in I became pretty sick and needed to come home to go to the doctor for a few days. I offered to sleep in the living room but her dad lived close by so I guess she said shed make other arrangements so she would have gone there possibly. A day later she requested to end the stay early, which was fine yet very inconvenient. I ended up going to emergency room upstate. She was patient with me and I decided not to travel back home while sick so we agreed on the 11th. She kept mentioning that I could come back earlier if I wanted to. I guess maybe the train sound got to her. I had a feeling she left early, but the video confirmed it. Not sure why she would think that I wouldn't verify. The cameras are visible outside my door.

Jennifer is amazing. We couldn't imagine better for our cat and our home. She took great care of our pet in our absence. We heard from her every day by photo and video. Our cat was treated like a little prince and loved Jennifer. We found our house clean and tidy, Jennifer took good care of it. She was super organized. More than adorable, attentive and caring, she's the ideal person if you're looking for a petsitter. Our only regret: not having her at home for every trip. Thank you so much !

Erica and Darren have been on both ends of zeewoi-- as housesitters and as people who invited housesitters to their home. This made me and my husband feel especially at ease with them, and it's clear our cat felt the same way! They were communicative and left our tidy tidy. Come back to Charlottesville anytime!

Holly was fantastic, would recommend her to anyone.

Caleb and Tabbie were great! Gave us regular updates and we could definitely tell they cared about all of our pets. Would recommend!

Annemarie was absolutely fabulous! She is such a kind, easygoing and reliable sitter and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that my dog Nala was in good hands. This was my first experience using zeewoi and she made it perfect! She always sent updates with pictures throughout the weekend and my dog absolutely adored her from the moment she met her. So much so that she kept coming up to her for pets and watched her out the window as she was leaving! It was truly the best feeling to know that my dog was under the care of someone who genuinely loves animals and puts so much effort into taking care of them. They went on long walks together, which is my dog’s favorite thing to do. Nala was happy and relaxed when I came home, and everything in the house was tidy as well. I would absolutely recommend Annemarie to anyone in need of a sitter, she is the best!

Patty was wonderful! She cared so well for Alia, sent photos and regular updates, and is frankly just a joy to be around and work with. I am grateful to have had the chance to connect with her. Patty, if you ever want to return to Asheville please let me know!

Ellie was really communicative and supportive throughout. She sent us some lovely pics of our doggies whilst we were away, without being over the top. A pleasure to have in our home and we would not hesitate to recommend her services. Thank you Ellie

Kriszta and Luz were very conscientious and left the house in the best shape of any pet sitter. I highly recommend them!

Monica and Alan are wonderful pet sitters. They provided our Sadie with a fun and stimulating visit. They sent pictures and really enjoyed their time with her and in our community. I think Sadie was sad to see them go. Now she’s left with her boring parents.
