Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
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!
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.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
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.
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
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!
A transformative experience for our 5 month old Labrador. We enrolled our dog in the 3 week obedience program. The results were incredible. Our dog is so much more pleasant to live with now and opened up a lot more freedom for her! We were very impressed with the staff and the facility!
Super friendly staff! I dropped my baby girl off on Saturday morning and just picked her up today. She had tons of fun and made some great K9 friends. I received photos and updates of my fur baby upon request. Honestly, I highly recommend them for a day of play and an overnight stay.
I had quite the unpleasant experience with this facility today. I had previously spoken to them expressed my need to visit prior to my dogs first appointment. Everything was great , yes, yes on the phone. When I showed up I was informed I could not see the facility,I could look on line at pictures. As I went to the site I scrolled and the gentleman walked off stating this is not going to work , have a nice day. A very disrespectful, loud, hand gestures up in the air wave. I was left standing watching his annoyance for asking questions. From what was said today in person , the dogs do not physically interact during daycare or boarding. Interaction is between a staff member and dog only. I could have been informed of this over the phone and saved me the 45 minute trip.
I highly recommend Silverbrook! I took my puppy here back in June. I wanted training for my pup that would get him to the point of not having to rely on his collar all the time. I take him with me everywhere now. I’m amazed at how well he behaves now, with the training he received here! This training was probably the best thing that could’ve happened for him. Thank you so much!!
We kenneled our two Labradors here for 10 days. The staff here is warm, caring, attentive, and they listen. They’re not the cheapest, and they provide significant value. Coming home to two happy, healthy dogs was worth every penny-and knowing that we didn’t have to worry about them made the vacation that much more enjoyable.
If I could give Silverbrook 10 stars, I would! We got our girl, Olive, from them in June and the process was amazing! They truly love what they do and they really do treat the puppies as if they were their own. These puppies (and their parents) are given so much love and a sense of security from the second they are born. The facility is clean, warm, and as close to a home like environment as you can get. Trish (the owner) kept us updated and sent pictures and videos of the puppies almost daily and has kept in contact with us even to this day. She has always made it very clear that she is available if we have any questions and has been so quick to respond when we do. Now, for part two. After about 5 months, we realized that we were in over our heads with training. These dogs have an amazing temperament and are wicked smart! We decided to send Olive to the obedience training program because we knew we were not doing her any good by continuing (what we thought was) training her ourselves. Our trainer, Jay, interviewed us before hand to get an idea of what outcome were we hoping for and which commands were most important to us. I love that they meet you where you are and really work with you to develop a plan that is going to work with your family. Jay is really good about communicating and sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated. My biggest worry was that this was going to change her personality, but it did not at all. She still has her sweet and goofy demeanor but without the chaos. We now know that what we thought was just normal puppy behavior was a lot of anxiety and confusion from both her and us. Our quality of life has improved so much and I cannot thank Jay and the staff at SIlverbrook enough for everything they have done!
We have boarded our 1 year old dog here various times over the past year, and he has always been treated well. We finally decided to do their three week training program, as our very large puppy had learned he was stronger than the rest of the family and had quit obeying us. I’m not joking when I say this training saved our family’s sanity! He came home the same loving, friendly, caring dog, but now he listens and responds to commands immediately, and is so much better behaved. We’ve been able to have him off leash in our yard without worrying about him running off. He’s not spending hours locked up in his kennel when see couldn’t control him. Seriously, this has been the best program ever.
We did the board and train for our 7 month old Cane Corso puppy, Dezzi. The trainers did an amazing job with her, and she is so well trained off leash now, that it is almost like she is a different dog. Highly recommend Silverbrook, and I cant wait to bring all 3 of our dogs back for boarding :)
Do not take your animals here, they do not feed them properly nor do they treat them with kindness.
Was our 1st time using Silverbrook Kennels and we are very glad to have had the opportunity! The location is peaceful and we like the "farm retreat" vibe Silverbrook has over the "industrial complex" most other kennels we've used, offer. Their staff is professional and kind. Can tell they are passionate about the animals in their care and we trust that our pup was well taken care of. Great first impression, even down to a small sign welcoming our pup by name. Small gesture, but a glimpse into the great environment they offered for our pup. We will continue to use Silverbrook again for our boarding needs. Definitely recommend!
We recently had Pam take care of our 3 dogs, 2 horses, and chickens. I got updates everyday with pictures, all my boys were loved and taken care of as if they were hers. With her flexibility we were even able to extend our stay. I highly recommend this company. I’ll leave this review as many places as I can so everyone knows how truly wonderful she is. It’s such a relief knowing we can go away and not worry. Looking forward to her next visit.
Madison, Orange, Culpeper and surrounding areas, Two Sisters will be serving your Area's starting February 2025. Pam is the Best. She will always go above and beyond for her clients. Call today to schedule your meet and greet and get in Pam's client book. ********* Two Sisters Pet and Farm Sitting of Stafford, Virginia (Pam Talley) is without doubt the absolute best service of its kind available in the state of Virginia. Pam goes over and beyond to take care of her animal clients and their humans. I live 30+ miles away and way outside of Pam's usual area but she has always come and taken care of my animals at a moments notice, no easy feat as I have numerous fur babies comprising of horses, donkeys, cats and dogs. Absolutely deserves 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Best pet sitter experience ever! Seriously Pam was so professional and caring. She showed up in time and took excellent care of our menagerie, even the fishies were smiling when we got home. Look how happy all our “kids” are! Pam sent updates and photos throughout the week. She even called to alert me that someone was at the house and asked if that was okay. Turned out to be a surveyor, but I greatly appreciate her diligence and care. Prices are fare and visits flexible to fit any situation. Our little Roo needs 7 medications a day and I never worried once that he was at risk.
We were in town for a wedding and asked Pam to visit our small dog for dinner and a walk. She was great with communication and we were happy to receive photos of our little guy. If we are ever in the area again, we would not hesitate to contact Two Sisters Pet Sitting. Thank you Pam!
I had a great experience with Pam while we were gone on vacation! She was reliable, attentive, and our fur babies seemed content when we returned. She also sent photos everyday during check ins, which I appreciated. Highly recommended!
Pam at Two Sisters Pet Sitting in Stafford, VA is awesome! We trust her to take care of our dogs when we’re away and she is amazing. She treats the boys as if they are her own as well as keeping an eye on the house, bringing in mail, etc. The dogs love being at home, love Pam and we avoid the hassle of putting them in a kennel. We trust her implicitly and consider her a family friend, We’ve referred her to several friends who she now counts as clients. If you’re looking for an awesome pet sitter, Pam at Two Sisters Pet Sitting, is it!!
Pam Talley is an absolute joy to have in our lives! We brought home a puppy several months ago and after reading reviews on a local Facebook page, contacted Pam immediately. She came out to our house to meet us and our puppy who loved her from day one! She was very patient with me as I asked a million questions on how she would care for my dog when we had to work outside of the home. She answered all of my questions with great thought and care and I could really tell that she loves what she does for a living. She told me on our first meeting that she would love my dog like he was her own and she has shown us that consistently. She provides references who all speak very highly of her and the services she provides. Pam is very easy to work with, very responsive when scheduling and even offers to help if I get stuck in DC commuter traffic. What really stands out to me is that she does care for every pet and animal that she serves. This was apparent when our puppy was sick recently and she helped us find a vet who could diagnose and treat him before our regular vet even had an opening. She teaches/reinforces puppy manners and helps us humans by giving us tips and showing us tricks to keep him on a consistent track. We get daily updates after his walks and pictures and videos which we LOVE. I DO NOT know what we would do without Pam (and Shelby). Our puppy loves them both and I am so glad that we met. We will be customers (and fur-family) for as long as we live in the Stafford area. 💙🐾
I am so thankful that I found Pam at Two Sisters Pet Sitting. We have a senior boy, so I was more nervous than normal about finding the right person. My nerves were put at ease because Pam is the absolute best! She is loving, caring, professional and attentive. She will do anything to treat your fur babies like one of her own. We recently went on vacation and requested 4 visits a day. She accommodated each visit, even having Catelyn (pet sitter) to handle a later evening visit so Max would not have such a long overnight. She puts the best interest of the animals above all else. Pam competently administers medication accurately and on time. Her communication is timely and non rushed. She takes her time to answer any question you may have. I love the pictures she texts daily with captions of "Hi mom," or "Had my dinner"....etc. However, the best determination of how loving Pam is, is by Max. When she stopped by to review house procedures, Max was so happy to see her and loved on her like he was with his very special person! I wholeheartedly recommend Two Sisters Pet Sitting. Your furry best friends will thank you!!
Pam and her team of pet sitters have been coming into my home for about 6 months now, at least once a day, some times twice a day. They have always been friendly and helpful and have gotten to know me and my babies to the point that my cat Sunny follows Pam around the house every time she's here and I'm convinced that she would probably follow her home if I let her. Pam and her team have helped out with cat litter cleaning, cat feeding, giving meds to cats, and many other misc. care needs. They're so great!
I have known Pam for a few years and have helped her out a few times. I always feel safe with her and the various fur babies she takes care of. Pam is so good with all types of pets - cats, horses, chickens, lizards, birds goats and particularly good with all breeds of dogs. Her varied skills are impressive! She is so kind and patient and tends to go above and beyond the call of duty. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets.
