Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
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!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
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, $10/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!
I have been taking my dog to Noble Kennels for about a year now and my dog is always happy to walk in. I'm super grateful for all the Noble Kennel employees, everyone there treats my dog with so much love and care. The staff is always super attentive too, I never have to wait long before someone is there to help me check my dog in or out. I'm glad I found a place I can trust to take excellent care of my furry friend. Thank you Noble Kennels! You're amazing!
I recently boarded my Cat with Noble Kennels and I can’t even begin to express how pleased I am with their services! The kennel she stayed in was very big with a large cat tower and plenty of toys and things for her to do. It was clean and the staff was exceptional. They gave me several updates with pictures throughout her stay. I definitely felt she was is in great hands and they really took all my worries of leaving her away. I will only be boarding my animals with them in the future. Five star and above service!
My girls and I love Noble Kennels. I always feel safe leaving them there, and I can see how much love and care they give to all the animals. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing doggie day care, grooming, or kennel stays. I wouldn't leave my fur babies with anyone else.
Love taking my dogs here! My dogs love it! They have great prices and people are always friendly, plus my babies come home with Lil bandanas!! Bon bons favorite place!
We take our two dogs to Trina at Noble Kennels for daycare quite often-they absolutely love it there. Such a great staff, beautiful facility, and our dogs love getting to stay the night, love their baths-and the staff. It’s a 10 out of 10!! Go!!
Best place ever I loved working there until I moved states away but Trina still take great care of my moms doggy 🥰 …
Clean, courteous staff and all the signs of being well-run. Parker enjoyed his one-night stay and thought it was the best kennel he has ever been to in California.
Went on a short vacation and had nobody to look after my dogs. Decided to give Noble Kennels a chance and they exceeded expectations! We even received report cards that showed their feeding/medication records were frequently updated. Well priced and very friendly staff! This will be my go to spot to drop off the dogs now! Our dogs thank you as well for taking great care of them!
We left our dog and two cats at Noble Kennels Oakdale for 11 days and they did a great job. We were very happy to get a text update with photos while on vacation. We highly recommend this kennel.
I've used them for years and was always happy until this last visit. I was overcharged. $75 for a dog that weighs 7 lbs?! It's winter and I asked them not to shave my dog, just a bath, clean up his stomach area, inside of his ears but he came back to me fully shaved and they charged me an additional $20 for it. I asked about the additional charge and the groomer came out. She was confrontational when asked about the extra charges. She told me he was difficult. I've been going to this groomers for years, I've never had an issue with the groomer, vet, any one but now he's difficult? He's mostly blind and deaf and he's 16. I hope that extra $20 was worth it because I won't be going back.
Canine Ranch is top Quality! They walked me through every process and everything that they advised was spot on. The genetics of these type of dogs are so important that you don’t want to take a chance with. This is the main purpose of going with Canine Ranch. We couldn’t be more impressed. My whole family is thankful for choosing Canine Ranch.
I brought my puppy to The Canine Ranch when he was four and a half months old for Board & Train Puppy Obedience and we’ve been returning ever since! I recently boarded my Oakley 🐶 at The Canine Ranch while I went on a mini vacation, and I can't express enough how much I love this place! Knowing that my boy was safe, loved, and enriched both physically and mentally made my trip so much more enjoyable. The daily updates with texts, photos, and videos are always great to receive, keeping me connected and reassured while I was away. My dog absolutely adores the Westbergs; he never fears going back and would probably choose to live there forever if he could! The care, attention, and love they provide are unparalleled. The Canine Ranch truly feels like a second home for him, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with his care. Highly recommended! 💕
Amina and Darick did an incredible job training our dog, Lembo, for a month. Before, he used to jump on people, pull the leash, and wouldn’t settle down. Now, he’s so much calmer! He stayed relaxed even at a restaurant and parking lot on the way home, which was a huge change. Throughout the training, they sent us daily updates and videos, and they always answered our endless questions with patience and care. They even groomed him before we picked him up, which just shows how thoughtful they are. We can’t recommend Amina and Darick enough—they really care about what they do!
Their pups have great genetics, amazing stability and overall you can tell how much they care. Their instagram is in depth and you can see how much goes into it and even see your pup when its born with updates to when its ready to take home.
I was referred to The Canine Ranch by a friend who had wonderful experiences, and I can confidently say that Amina and Darick are exceptional people. From the moment I inquired about a puppy until now, they have consistently shown kindness and dedication to making sure their puppy thrives. My 5-month-old Dutch Shepherd from the Ozzy x Layla litter has exceeded all expectations. Amina’s support has been invaluable; she promptly responds to every text and call, and regularly checks in to ensure the well-being with the pup. Being part of The Canine Ranch feels like being part of a family and I cannot recommend them enough.
Amina and Darick are just the best! They both truly care about bringing out the best in the dogs that they train. Beautiful property with everything needed for complete training of any dog with any issue. I have a dog from one of their breedings. Great genetics on their pups. And their whelping process is top notch.
In my experience I have met and worked with a lot of dog people. It is rare to really find people with this much years and years of experience nowadays. Not all the marketing stuff or the fancy call outs really attest to actually being a good dog trainer. Which these people are. I highly recommend you go see for yourself. You will experience full attention to you and your dog. Like people who actually care and are nice on top of that.
This review has been long over due ! I am glad I finally have the time to get to it. I met Amina and Derrick through some mutual friends during a training. I always enjoyed their straight forward ness, knowledge, and expertise on dogs. During Thanksgiving of last year my family and I had stayed close to the Westbergs. The location we stayed at would not allow dogs. At the time I had 5 or so dogs (not easy ones) that needed emergency boarding. Sure enough, the Westbergs stepped up and did a phenomenal job. Ensuring each dog got time out of the kennels, clean care, and consistent pictures and videos to prove the dogs were safe and well taken care of. I don’t trust my dogs and clients dogs with just anyone, but I would 100% go back in a heart beat to board my pack at their ranch. To speak on their dog training abilities and knowledge, I have personally seen them train their client dogs and personal dogs. They are ethical, fair, and consistent with their work. They ensure they have the highest quality products and the highest level of training to ensure their client families are successful in their training journey. Great work Westbergs. Keep up the hard work 👍🏾
When you can drive away completely confident with the care comfort and kindness our fur family receives at the Canine Ranch with the Westberg’s, in a climate controlled kennel to boot, It does not get better than that!!! You can really enjoy being away. Thanks to both of you and your family So appreciated Linda Brunson and Nala
Absolutely wonderful place to board your dog. The property is beautiful and the kennels are clean and come with climate control. But what my husband and I appreciate the most is the love Amina showed for our dog. We are looking forward to to trying the other services that The Canine Ranch has to offer
Mary has been there for us in the drop off a hat. My husband requires treatment in SF and we literally have given Mary just hours notice that we need her and she never hesitates to be there. It's nice not to have to worry about my fur babies with her. They're in excellent hands. And she sends me pics of them which cheers me up. She also goes above and beyond with specific things needing to be done at the house (specific lights on, checking mail, garbage can day, etc.) I highly recommend her services, she's been incredible.
Mary watched our 7 cats while we were on vacation, and she did an amazing job! I got pictures of all kitties each day so I could see that they were ok. I could tell that she was nice to them because in the pictures, they really liked her. They enjoyed her company very much. She also made a photo collage of each kitty for me as a nice gift. It gave us a piece of mind to enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend and will definitely use her services again in the future!
I feel so fortunate to have found Mary to provide care for my dog Doorstop while I am at work. She deeply cares for animals and is super reliable. I feel very comfortable and at ease, knowing that she is there to help. Doorstop loves his walks with Mary!!
Mary is the best sitter! She is very attentive, professional, affordable, and send me tons of update pictures so I didnt miss my kitty too badly while I was away.
If you are looking for a reliable and professional pet sitter. Look no further! We used Mary many, many times over several years and were never disappointed. The dog always went away with us but kitty stayed home and Mary visited daily, keeping Kitty fed and watered and loved! Sometimes we even got videos of Kitty’s play time. Although we no longer have our sweet old Kitty, we cannot recommend Mary any more highly! If you love your cat(s), you will love Mary! ♥️
We had Mary watch our cats and fish while we were gone on vacation. We are so thankful that we did. One of cat's became ill and Mary took her to vet for us, dealt with long phone calls and wait time. She kept us up to date on her condition through text messages and videos. She basically saved our cat's life and we owe her a debt of gratitude. She took special care of our ill cat and the others... We truly appreciate Mary and the service she provides...
Finding someone you trust to take care of a pet while you’re gone tends be stressful and difficult. I have a rescue cat who is a shy and nervous little guy. Because of his disposition, I didn’t want to board him and instead wanted to keep him home in a place he was comfortable and familiar with. Between his and my separation anxiety, I was really anxious about finding someone who would take care of him while my husband and I went on vacation. I am so beyond thankful I found Mary. Her initial house visit immediately put me at ease. We sat down and discussed everything, from the scheduled visits right down to every little detail. Her attention to detail and thoroughness of everything is really amazing. I wanted someone who would spend time with my cat instead of just “come to feed then leave,” so the fact there were options for the amount of time spend per visit was so appreciated. She also offered to take care of additional small tasks around the house while we were out, like watering plants and take out the trash, which I thought was incredibly thoughtful. I knew she was a perfect fit when she got a few pets in from my cat — without a single treat !! I knew he was in the best possible hands. Mary was so wonderful while we were gone. She sent pictures and video updates with each visit so I could see how he was doing (the photo uploaded is one she sent me). She was communicative, responsive, and professional, and I am thrilled to have a go-to sitter whom I truly trust. I cannot recommend Mary or her business highly enough. Thank you Mary !!
We"ve trusted Mary's care for our pets for almost 2 years She's our go to person when we need a pet sitter. Very responsible and her prices for all that she does most importantly to us when we're away our peace of mind is all worth it. We would highly recommend Mary to all our friends & family.
We highly recommend Mary’s Pet Project! Mary came in twice a day for visits with our kitty, Lucy while we were away on our first get away since COVID hit. This was also the first vacation in many years that we were able to really relax because we knew that Lucy was being taken care of so well. Mary sent photos & videos & that was so much appreciated. We love that she tailored her services to our special needs. She was so great with Lucy. It was the first time that Lucy was so calm when we arrived home. Mary also took care of the neighborhood kitty that sleeps on our porch. She made certain to give our home the ‘we are at home’ look & even placed our garbage cans out. Thank you Mary for your kindness, professionalism & a wonderful pet sitting experience.We will definitely use your services again!😻
Our cat is very affectionate and likes attention and being around people at all times. She does not like being left alone. After moving to California 4 years ago, we were searching for a pet sitter. The Humane Society of Stanislaus County recommended Mary's Pet Project after hearing good things about her. She deals with all sorts of animals. My wife and I travel often, sometimes overseas, and need reliable visits to our cat. I was impressed that Mary maintains detailed files about every pet, including Vet and medication info if required. Mary texts updates, including videos of a kitty who is happy at receiving regular visits. She deals with all pet related cleaning, grabs the mail, and takes care of lights and other household adjustments. I would highly recommend her services.
I drive from Reno to have "Auntie Cheri" take care of my 2 furbabies. They are always happy to see her & all worn out when it's time to go home. This is the BEST caring place EVER!🐾💞🐾 …
My girls have been there twice and both times they returned wagging their tails with joy.
A Bed and Biscuit is great! Our dogs love it there and Cherie, the owner, loves dogs (and cats) and takes great care of all her guests. Kennels are spacious, well equipped, and there's lots of play time and free roam for the pooches. Plus, Cherie lives on site, a hard requirement for us. I won't leave our pets at a place that does not have someone on site 24/7. Highly recommended!
Cheri treats all the dogs like they were her own. Highly recommend bringing your pet here to try it out. We have been coming here for years, my dog is happy to go and happy when he returns home. Hours are convenient and she's flexible if you are in a bind. We get videos of our dog so that we can see all the fun he is having while we vacation. Can't say enough great things❤️
I have left my little Abby at Bed and Biscuit on several occasions. I am super happy with the treatment she recieved.she had a great time and was treated like a member of the family. I highly recommend Bed and Biscuit.
Cheri is great with my dog. I feel good about leaving him for short playcare days or long vacations! She is also very reasonable in price. Thank you! Dodie L.
Sadly they don't take dogs over the weight of 30 pounds. But they were wonderful enough to give Recommended places.
We have used this Kennel for several years. I am so sad that they can’t accept dogs over I think 45 pounds anymore. We will miss this kennel.
Best doggie day care and best place for fur babies to stay while family on short/long vacations
Cherie is wonderful! Great with our two dogs.
So, looking at the other reviews we notice a lot of reviews ranging from 4-5 stars, looking pretty good right? Then we notice a review from only 6 months ago about a dog getting brutally attacked and the owner blaming it on the dog. Not …
I took my dog who was recovering from her second TPLO surgery to the pool for rehabilitation. I had the pool to myself. Took my dog a little while to get the idea but she eventually swam around. Entry and exit ramp was a bit of a challenge though.
Extremely rude. Called just to see if they had good services and I was asked “who is this and why are you asking” in an extremely rude matter. On top of all the dogs being attacked. This place deserves to be shut down and put out of …
