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.

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.
The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
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 $ 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!
These folks are nice and friendly. They kept Lucy for two nights. She was clean and happy when I picked her up around 4:00 PM. I took my on food and her bed. If you use Sit, Stay & Play, be sure to ask every question before commiting. I did not realize that the "day" ended at 3:00 PM and that if you pick up your pet after that you would be charged for an extra day. It, ($20.00) is not a big deal, but had I known about the 3:00 cut off, I could havd picked Lucy up earlier and saved the money.
This was the first time we utilized this service after learning no one could keep our little dog while we were on vacation. I was greeted by a very friendly young lady at the front desk. She assured me everything would be okay. The place was clean and seemed well organized. You can bring your own food or allow them to feed your pet. Bring your pets a pillow and snacks if you like also. The prices aren't too bad at all. For 5 days I paid 127. That's a cheap price for peace of mind knowing your pet will be taken care of. We will be using these services in the future. It's really great to have something like this locally. I highly recommend Hollywood. Be sure to have all your pets shots. It's best to call ahead and they will gladly tell you which ones are needed before your pet can stay. They also groom as well.
Great staff and nice facilities. Your pet takes their own bed, toys and food with them. Reasonable rates. Penny was there four nights and also had a bath and nail trim for just $25 additional. Also important to us was she was next to other small dogs and indoors at night, not in a dog house in a lot next to a great Dane shed be scared to death of the whole time. She will be staying again! (picture of a satisfied customer)
I’m beyond thankful for them taking my big boy codak at the last minute and we came from Greensboro. The staff has been nothing but good to us and we appreciate you guys to the fullest. Thanks for showing my baby love.
Hollywood Pets is a fantastic, clean, professional, and responsible business that truly takes your pet, ( family member) and loves them like their own. My dog doesn't board well but after visiting Hollywood Pets that's the only place he loves and will stay without any issues. Love you guys thanks for your great service and dedication to our pets.
Hollywood Pets is Amazing! I assure you will not find better grooming or boarding services. They go above and beyond to make customers (doggies) happy and comfortable. When I stepped in their door, I didn't feel like I was at a grooming facility, because it is truly like a pet spa. There upbeat happy people, and wagging tails everywhere. The facility is very clean and hospitable. I will never take my babies, two Yorkshire Terriers, anywhere else. I know I will never find another who cares about, and loves my babies like Hollywood Pets!
We have used Hollywood Pets several times over the last year or so. This past visit will be our last. Our main concern with previous visits would be how our dogs smell upon pickup. It’s bad, maybe a mixture of kennel cleaner, pee and stench, who knows. Either way, they get bathed immediately upon arrival at home and their bed gets aired out, a lot. This time the bed has what looks to be a large pee stain on it. Our dogs are house trained, so it makes me wonder. We also had extra bags food prepared just in case and never received them back, strange. On to today’s issue which leads to our negative feedback. My wife calls in advance of our departure with our travel dates, drop off and pickup times and boarding fees, documenting all. Upon pick up of our pets, the boarding fees were higher than quoted. When this was questioned the owner stated he never gave those prices, he refused to look at the written documentation of such. After some intense discussion he slipped up and admitted a mistake in quoting a price prior to their July price increase, but refused to stick by the original quote or come to any terms of agreement. With this being said, dog owners beware! This business is less than ethical and cannot be trusted by any verbal conversation or agreements. This is an extremely piss poor way to operate a business and expect to retain customers. I would recommend pet owners take their beloved pets to anywhere else for boarding and care due to the fact that this business cannot be trusted on multiple levels. They will never see our $400-$500 dollar boarding visit fees again.
I paid $38 for my miniature schnauzer. My dog was groomed yesterday, and they did a fantastic job. My dog does not seem to mind going there, and I find the staff to be very helpful. I also saw a trainer working with s dog, she was incredibly gentle. My dog will continue to go there as long as I live in the area.
This is a great place/daycare to bring your pets and they even offer some vaccinations too. Great customer service and very very affordable. I'm a retired veteran so the cost is perfect for me and my family. My dogs looked so happy and comfortable there too when I checked on them.
The owner made time for my daughter and explain his business for our homeschool field trip. It was so clean, and the dogs were so well taken care of. He also helps the Animal Welfare Society here in Yanceyville and takes in dogs when they get full. These people are awesome!
The owner Derek goes above and beyond to explain anything about your pet, suggestions and even other services around town that he may not offer. Their grooming service is awesome and very consistent.
