Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Cat and Paul sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details. Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters! Regards! Edward
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, $18/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Claudia is a true dog lover, kind person, and all around caring guardian of fur babies. I do not worry at all when I leave my dogs with her days or sometimes weeks. She sends me photos and frequent updates on how they’re doing. My dogs are lap dogs and love the attention from her kids. They walk right inside when I drop them off, like they’re happy to be there. Highly recommend her as a boarding option!
Claudia is amazing with our pup! When we drop her off, she doesn’t look back because she is so excited to spend time there!! Our dog has dietary restrictions and Claudia is ALWAYS able to accommodate!!! I get lots of updates but honestly I don’t have anything to worry about, my dog is in great hands!! I am so happy I came across her daycare! I will only use her for boarding our pup!
We always take our dogs with us but feel so fortunate to have found Claudia to care for our 2 Dobermans and golden retriever. She’s beyond amazing - very experienced, conscientious, always keeping us up to date on how the dogs are doing. They just love her - get great exercise, playtime and are well taken care of. We would highly recommend her! She deserves 10++stars!!
Claudia was amazing with my two small dogs. They enjoyed being at her house. Claudia was very easy to work with for over 2 1/2 years that we lived in the area. I always knew my dogs were being well taken care of with her.
I cant recommend Claudia enough! She is incredibly flexible and you can tell that she really loves what she does. She communicates wonderfully and sends pictures while your pet is with her and I can tell that my pup had a great time during both stays. It’s a gift when you don’t have to worry about your pet while you’re gone and that is absolutely the case with Claudia!
Claudia is amazing & our pups love staying with her! She has a fenced-in backyard and always sends us photos of our dogs having a great time - she makes an effort to ensure they still get the love and attention away from home. Claudia is always very reliable & makes us feel at ease when we go out of town and can’t take our pups with us. I wouldn’t know what to do without her!
We've been using Claudia for boarding our two dogs for years - because she is the best. Her prices are great and she takes care of the pups like they're her own!
Claudia is the best! We have an older dog and I just didn’t like taking her to the big boarding facilities anymore where she didn’t get much attention. Claudia welcomes our dog into her home and sends daily updates and pictures :) our dog always comes home happy, calm, and healthy. We are so glad we found Claudia! Highly recommend 🤩 …
I have to share my experience with Claudia and my dog Jujubee. She was an extremely energetic untrained huge puppy that I left with Claudia for two weeks while traveing. When I came back, Claudia gave me many tips on training which I implemented. While I was gone I received updates and J was thriving and happy. I recommend Claudia because she didn’t turn my sweet Jujubee away and instead embraced the challenge all he while providing a happy and safe temporary home while I was gone! Extra bonus: Claudia is diligent about immuniizatioms being up to date to keep the other puppies safe. Thanks Claudia!!!!!
I had research many dogs daycare for my fur baby. Some I had like & some I didn't. When I continue to research I truly find the reviews for "Claudia's Dogs Daycare & Boarding" were highly recommended. Of course, I had to meet her. I really like the professionalism with Claudia's business (good vibes). Details information were on point for my first time fur baby boarding. I was nervous but her personality so welcoming. I really felt at ease knowing my fur baby will be taking good care of while on vacation. I will definitely be a returning client for my fur baby. I truly recommend lookup Claudia's Dog Daycare & Boarding no disappointment here. Thank you so much Claudia for all you have done for my fur baby Cody. I truly wish you the very best of continuous success.
Blue Sky Farms is simply the most amazing place for your pet to go. All of the people are so friendly, loving and wonderful people. I had a emergency happen and hands down they were there for me and my dog (Lump). His owner had just passed away and they took her in to help me as if she was their own. I can't even put in words how blessed and grateful I am for them. I will praise and recommend them to everyone. Thank you all for what you do there for ALL animals.
We have been using Blue Sky Farms for several years now to care for our baby while away. He is diabetic and requires insulin twice daily and they have taken care of his needs. A big Thank You to BSF!
Jeannine and the family are like a second home to our little girl. When we show up she starts wiggling with excitement! With dependability and consistent schedules, and fair rates, I know I can turn to her and feel safe leaving Luna as long as she has room and we reserve in advance. The updates to the facilities are outstanding! Climate controlled boarding areas, small pools, fantastic toys, couches, and genuinely caring people. THERES NOTHING ELSE YOU COULD WANT! Long Ridge Road is the place to go! Update...its been a year later and I still wouldn't change one thing on the review except I wish there was another one in Tennessee! I don't know what we will do without them!
We have boarded our 70 pound Golden Doodle at Blue Sky Farms of K9 Country Inn since she was a puppy. She is treated so well in their care that when we are taking her to board, we tell her she is going to Camp and she gets excited. The people there treat her as family. She gets plenty of outdoor exercise and socializes with similar size dogs. The staff is professional and knowledgeable in the proper care and handling of dogs. The facilities have always been clean and maintained well. We would not consider leaving our pet anywhere else. We have the highest confidence in her treatment and care.
Great value in the packages that they provide, love the half day option. Jeannie and her staff are amazing with the dogs. The renovations that have been made are amazing, our pup Luna always comes home happy and tired. Thanks Jeannie.
I adopted a 5 month old Mountain Cur dog. So cute BUT out of control. I dreaded coming home. Blue Sky Farms saved me. Cali now walks on a leash, does not chase my horses or kill anymore chickens/ducks. She stopped chewing on me as a bone, does not attack/jump on visitors. I am so happy I found you guys and you were able to perform miracles. My other dog (Lucy) even likes her now.
We just picked our dogs up after "their" vacation at Blue Sky Farms. The kennels are clean and spacious. We enjoyed the Facebook pictures and posts. Our dogs were happy and well cared for while we were away. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. We will definitely use them again.
The kennel was great. One of my two mastiffs had an open wound that happened the day before I left for my trip. They took care of Sarge and I am very grateful. Five star service, both dogs came home smiling.
We have been boarding our dogs to Blue Sky Farms for over 5 years and we love it. Our Pug is getting up in age, and does not play well with others. The staff go out of their way to pay extra attention to him during his stay. Our dogs usually stay an average of 10 days, and they both come home fit and happy. I would like to thank the staff for taking such good care of our two "babies."
We take our Bloodhound and GSD for grooming, boarding and the occasional Day Care. The owners are excellent trainers and knowledgeable of dogs. One of my pups is not overly social. Blue Sky team is able to handle her and give her the chance to play with other animals, something I do not trusted others with. My pups are always super excited to see me, let's me know they enjoyed their time with the Sky team.
