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!
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
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!
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
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!
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 18 CHF per visit, 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!
Ana's been cat-sitting for our pet for four years now. She's everything you'd want in a pet-sitter: responsible, professional, communicative, and most of all very caring and sweet with our cat. She's also pointed out when there seem to be any issues with our cat, which is really helpful and says a lot about her thoroughness and care as a sitter. I actively have been recommending her to everyone I know in Lausanne with a cat who needs someone reliable to take care of them while they're on vacation. Thank you Ana! So glad we found you.
Ana has been taking care of my 2 cats every time I travel for the past 5 years. She is trustworthy, reliable and communicative, sending pictures and updates on the cats frequently. She also pays attention and reports suspicious/abnormal behaviors (signs of diarrhea, pee outside the litter box, eating less than usual, etc) — and has at times done some extra visits to check on their well-being after such incidents. Leaving your apartment’s key and the well-being of your pets to a stranger is a delicate matter, and I’m happy that Ana has become a friend over the years and seen my family evolve and grow.
Ana is the best pet sitter I ever had! Loving and caring, she’s trustworthy and flexible. My dog loves her because she treats it as if would be her own pet. I highly recommend her services. Thank you, Ana, for being so nice and flexible.
We travel a lot and without any worries as my 2 cats are getting taken care if by Phoebe and Friends in the most perfect way since 5 years…. A reliable, professional and great service and I recommend it to everybody! Ana is taking care of my two babies and they love her!
Ana is a lovely and kind pet sitter. She truly loves the dogs and even goes out of her way to pamper them on special occasions. She is a trained dog groomer as well and does a great job in making the little furballs be neat, clean and look awesome!
Ana has cared for my 2 little yorkies keeping them overnight and also grooming them. I trust her implicitly with my dogs as it is rare to meet someone so caring and reliable. If she takes care of your pets, they will indeed be in very good hands and you can rest assured that they will be safe and happy.
Ana is a godsend! She is so good with our Lucy and Lucy loves her as well. Its so rare to find a dogsitter who is dedicated and loves her client like Ana. Even for overnight boarding Ana welcomes Lucy as if she was part of the family! We couldnt recommend Ana enough!
Ana was unreliable, I contacted her end of the morning, she agreed on keeping my dog for 3 hours for the following afternoon and at the end of the day she cancelled. While she agreed after a few basic questions (the dog breed, age, dog behaviour) she was dishonest afterwards saying that if she cancelled it is because she doesn’t accept dog she doesn’t know. Also her price was very high 20chf/ h.
I had the chance to meet Ana, she is a reliable pet sitter. She took care of my adorable little Malou (cat) during the holidays, went there three times a week, fed her, cleaned the litter box, gave her fresh water and a little affection. I highly recommend his services.
Hello everybody! Ana really has a love for animals and I'm glad she works with pets because that's what she loves, working with these angels from heaven! I recommend it to you!
cool
I am absolutely delighted with the Oh Dog company! The staff are simply fantastic. 🥰 My dog has already had 4 years of happiness taking walks and boarding at the lodge. Every morning, she is so happy when they come to pick her up for nature walks, and hears them coming! Maëlle is adorable, attentive and Jeremy does the grooming with great care. I have full confidence with the whole team who are all caring. I can only recommend them!
I left my 7 month old puppy for 5 days. At first, I was a little stressed, since it was the first time I left him alone in a boarding house. But from the first call, I knew he was going to be in good hands. Jérémy is very kind and professional. As soon as I put him down, Sky was already happy. I received photos and videos, which reassured me enormously. Sky was very happy. I 100% recommend this boarding house if you are looking for a family place where your dogs feel at home. I also really appreciated the grooming that Jeremy offered, perfect job! I will count on them in the future without hesitation!
Trust, professionalism, kindness, and cleanliness; we collect our dog each time in excellent condition and delighted with her stay at Oh Dog. Without forgetting the location where the pension is located: a true haven of peace! Thank you Jérémy and the whole team for your quality service.
It's a very good team. They take great care of their residents. I picked up my dog happy and on good feet... and already looking forward to next time. THANKS
We are so happy with ohdog! They are kind, professional, true dog lovers, their walks in nature and freedom are very appreciated by our Golden who needs to walk a lot. Their pension is a magnificent place, a real luxury hotel 😊and the grooming is very very good too! To recommend without hesitation!
Terrible reception from the person who came out to serve us. He shouted at us because we don't speak French, even though we asked him if he spoke the traditional vehicular language of Switzerland, which is English. Do not come to this place, be careful, because you risk being mistreated by this person.
Superb welcome and great service. The staff is available and takes great care of our faithful companions. Jeremy even sent us photos. Bravo for this high-end service.
The Oh dog team is great! I highly recommend the pension, my dog is always happy to stay there and I greatly trust them to take care of her! :)
The best pension in the area. The ladies are like angels for my dog - she always loves going there 💓 …
Great! I leave my dog there regularly, she really enjoys it. The dogs are well taken care of, they go on long outings and have a lot of fun. Géraldine and Gina are really great.
A great pension that I highly recommend! It's always hard to leave our companions but at G&G we feel reassured because they take great care of them and will do everything to make them feel good.
Warm place, great for dogs who feel at home.
I no longer boarded my labrador because I was never very reassured, but at G&G it’s GREAT! Very pleasant and welcoming owners, walks with the dogs, they are well pampered and I was able to go on vacation peacefully! THANK YOU!
Great, very friendly welcome, the dog immediately feels comfortable and happy, I will happily leave him another time.
Amazing place. A paradise for our dog friends. Super cool
Our dog is happy to go there and sad to leave, what more could you ask for? :)
Cool
I recently took my dog to Fun Dog Daycare to get him used to water, and I was extremely happy with the experience. The staff are incredibly calm and patient, taking the time to advise and support every step of the way. They were able to create a safe and calming environment, allowing my dog to feel comfortable and confident. I also learned how to get him used to water without forcing him, just having fun. Their expertise and kindness really made the difference. I highly recommend Fun Dog Garderie to all dog owners who want to introduce their companion to water.
I go to the swimming pool with my Rottweiler, that's where the swimming instructor Lydwine taught him to swim, as a puppy he had some apprehensions with the water but with Lydwine's enormous experience now he loves it! Great welcome, parking spaces and easy access by car, even for us from Neuchâtel, everything is well planned for both the owner and the dog. Infrastructure always impeccable. I recommend this place. Olive
Know-how to take care of our doggies. I can leave it with confidence. A golden team, which knows how to renew itself and which is organizing a hell of a fundog run for us.
Disappointed to have noticed after several days of observation, that in fact, the little stories on the RS do not really correspond to reality. These games and activities represent at best 10 minutes during the day. No instructor enters the dog enclosures outside of this “showcase creation” time except to clean up small accidents or during the 2 daily walks. Not a hug, not a game. It's really sad. The dogs are waiting under surveillance! That said, for many, this alternative remains preferable to a dog that would be left alone at home for 8 hours a day. Not my vision of day care for kids.
My dog has been going there once or twice a week since he was 5 months old and I think I can say that he really appreciates it and so do I :) The concept is great and I am always calm about entrusting him to a very professional, caring and attentive team. listening to it. I know that my dog is in good hands and that he will enjoy his day between games with friends, caresses and walks... the best! I highly recommend !
I do not recommend Fun Dog for sensitive dogs (small and indoor spaces/lots of dogs at the same time). No alternative for calmer dogs. After 4 hours of testing, I left empty-handed with my dog and I paid 30.-- for a half-day trial in vain! I found the staff unempathetic and unprofessional in acclimatizing a dog... Finally, I found a daycare in Forel and my dog has a blast with people who love all breeds of dogs.
It's really great!
My dog goes there from time to time and is always very happy there. The concept is very nice, with various activities during the day and videos in the evening or the next day to share the good moments of the day.
A daycare with a great concept (play areas, 2 walks, à la carte service: swimming pool / fitness / grooming, etc.). A very professional and attentive team. Our dog goes there every week for her greatest happiness.
Melis and her team have set up a fantastic new day care focused around the dogs and their needs. The facilities are great and the amount of thought and care of the team is evident. The communication , and responsiveness has been very helpful as well. Is really easy to book and pay online. Thanks Woofy for creating a space like this for dogs in Lausanne where i feel my little weirdo will be well taken care of.
I brought my Shiba Umi to Woofy and it went super well! Umi was not stressed at all and she quickly took these marks. The staff is super welcoming, professional and attentive to the needs of the dog and the owner. In addition, it is a pension different from the others, there are several rooms whether for rest, games, socialization etc. And a little more the long walks with friends and especially the news of your dog at all times. Umi was delighted with this experience and so was I! Thanks to Melis and all her team for taking such good care of my dog ! I would come back with Umi for sure! 🙏🏼
I absolutely cannot praise Woofy enough! Melis and the entire team consistently go above and beyond to ensure that my dog Cumin has the time of his life during each visit. Their exceptional expertise, care, and genuine love for all the dogs they care for truly shines through. The facility is thoughtfully designed with a variety of interactive rooms that cater to different needs. If you're a pet parent in search of the perfect daycare, Woofy is your place!! 🐶
Woofy in Lausanne has been a fantastic daycare for our dog, who absolutely loves it there. The facility's structure ensures a safe and fun environment, and we plan to bring him again soon.
Woofy is the best place in Lausanne you can drop your dog for half or full day of stay they are not going to regret! Amazing staff, location perfectly furbished and equipped with all the possible toys and stimuli for our beloved dogs (and even more). What you can find here are competencies, trainings, passion and love for dogs. Really well done and looking forward to let Trudy stay with you again! :)
Extremely professional service, we couldn't be more satisfied!
I booked a discovery morning for my dog and I was extremely satisfied of the professionalism and care ! Thanks 🙏 Nala loved it and we will be back soon 🙌 …
We brought our little staffie, Nala, for the introductory morning and were made to feel very welcome. The session began with a 30-minute discussion about our dog's character. During the morning, we were able to follow the activities on Instagram: walk, wading in a pool and a lesson in learning how to lie down properly. When we went to pick her up, we received a little update on her character and her morning. Nala was of course exhausted after so much activity. Very satisfied and we will use their services in the future! We recommend!
Woofy loves our furry companions and this is felt as soon as you set foot in this hotel for dogs. Everything is done to ensure that our dog's stay goes well: a first interview to discuss and introduce Woofy's places. Then we learn that our dog will have walks, exercises and sensory activity! Excellent, you are the solution for people who love their animals. Thank you for making your stay at Spyke a great one. We had a peaceful stay and we were happy for our dog. Thanks Woofy 🐶
AWESOME! Since opening, we have entrusted our little Maki to Melis and the whole team. They are super attentive to his needs and his character, give him a lot of affection and offer lots of stimulating activities. He is always happy to go back. We completely trust the entire team and recommend Woofy with our eyes closed!
Pawffice is the perfect place for dogs to be cared for away from home. Irene takes great care to understand each dog’s individual needs and ensure that they are treated with respect and kindness. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker or sitter in Lausanne.
The team at Pawffice takes dog sitting and walking to the next level! My pup absolutely loves her days here where she goes on nature walks, swims in the lake and has playtime with other dogs. The team sends frequent photos of my pups activities while I’m away so I know she is in good hands, well cared for and having fun. It’s hard to find someone you trust to look after your dog but I can say I found that with the Pawffice team. I cannot recommend them enough!
Fantastic service and professional staff for my rhodesian Charlie! They helped me with many walks while I was busy at the office. They did an initial trial where they made sure there was chemistry between the person and the dog, super!
Pawffice offers a serious and reassuring service for owners and fun for our dogs. This is the best place to entrust our 4-legged friends! Pet sitters are passionate, gentle and punctual. We receive photos and/or videos of activities. I am confident that my dog is in good hands and happy. I recommend without hesitation!
I highly recommend Pawffice. My dog is very well received there, whether for occasional or longer care. Communication is very clear and responsive. Pawffice's passion for dogs is obvious. Congratulations to them and above all a BIG thank you!
We had been struggling to find a cat sitter in whose care we could leave our cats without worrying too much and finding Nelly has been such a relief for us. Now we can leave knowing our cats will be in very good hands! She is always reliable, professional and trustworthy.
Nelly made our holiday stress free. She was professional and responsive and our cat was well cared for. She also sent photo updates to keep us reassured. We will definitely use her services again.
Very happy with the service, communication and reliability. Nelly was wonderful in looking after our cat while we traveled and offered an update which put us at ease. Highly recommend! Thank you Nelly! 🐈♥️ …
Thank you Nelly for the care given to Matcha during my absences. The first meeting with Nelly immediately inspired me with confidence and she always takes great care of my cat. Matcha is calm when I come home and it's a real plus to know that he is in good hands. Nelly is very professional, respectful and reliable, I recommend her 100%.
Pearl thanks you for bringing her kindness during her mistress's absence. I recommend 200%. A big THANK YOU Nelly 😊 …
Nelly is very good, reliable and does her job with great professionalism. As soon as I saw her, she inspired great confidence in me and I still can't believe I found someone to look after my cat when I have to leave. Truly excellent service, I highly recommend it.
It's never easy to entrust your animals, and yet, all it takes is a first meeting with Nelly to immediately gain confidence! The service is impeccable, the exchanges very simple, Nelly is passionate and it shows! It's a huge stress reduction for me to know that I can count on her when I have to be away.
Professional and friendly service. Many thanks Nelly. I recommend Velvet Paws!!!
If you're looking for someone you can trust, you've found her. Nelly is amazing with animals and is super friendly. She even saved me a dying orchid. I recommend it with my eyes closed. Thank you for everything and see you next vacation.
Nelly is conscientious and professional in her work. She loves animals and is totally invested in their well-being. I can only recommend it to you with my eyes closed!!
Cindy is the absolute best. She cares so much about the animals she takes care of. She is super responsive, keeps us up to date on our cats while we are away with pictures and videos, and she makes scheduling easy and organized. One time (not when she was responsible for our cats) one of our cats went missing for a few days and she went above and beyond to connect us or connect for us with local veterinarians, online groups, posting boards where we could put word out about our missing cat. She also checked in with us every day until he returned safely home just because she cares.
I have been leaving my puppy at Bien Dans Ses Papattes for a few months and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful place for him. Cindy is amazing and I know my furry friend is being looked after with love and care. Great service, I highly recommend!! Thank you so much !
We left our golden retriever late last year for a long weekend. Our beloved Evie returned with a bite in her mouth and in her ear which was not openly discussed when we picked her up. At the price which is quite high, we expected better care and communication.
My two girls Zara and Zoe, one a senior and the other still a pup both were very happy during their visit. They loved being outside in a big garden with lots of space to run and play. Well looked after in a home, family environment.
Being the human of a little dog from Romania who is anxious and has many sensitivities, I was worried about finding a boarding facility where her needs and fears would be respected, and where daily work would not be ruined. Cindy was recommended to me and she is a gem! Sauge has been going there for short stays as well as vacations for over two years, and I couldn't live without it. This is summer camp for her! She cries when I tell her "we're going to Cindy's", and often doesn't even want to leave. Cindy takes care of him as if he were her own, gives him his medication, sends me videos regularly, and even teaches him to manage some of his fears. When you have an anxious dog, it's a lot of daily management. Being able to leave Sage and know that whatever happens, she is in good hands, and that I can enjoy 100% of my moments without her, is a luxury. Whether you have a sensitive little one or not, I can only recommend Cindy (and her mother), who admirably manages all these little people in a caring and enlightened education. Thank you Cindy ❤️
Well in one's paws is the ideal place for a dog's well-being. Cindy is a person completely devoted to her dogs whom she adores and they reciprocate! My two dogs from Romania were welcomed with open arms and are always happy to spend their holidays there. Cindy is a reliable person and gives very good advice. We can count on her. In case of problems she always gives very good advice and finds solutions. She is very professional and she gives a lot of love to all the dogs. The place is magnificent. Everything is brought together in this place to make dogs feel good. Cindy how lucky my dogs and I are to know you!!
I thank Cindy for welcoming my young Pyrenees shepherd Malu so that he can get used to staying a few hours without me and enjoying the heavenly environment of the little house and its large garden. Malu immediately loved playing with all his friends. Cindy received us with open arms, with a lot of tenderness, availability and patience for my ball of fur. His passion and professionalism for dogs is incredible. Thank you with all my heart.
A simply incredible family pension, like home even better. Total trust in Cindy who listens to each dog and understands them better than anyone. I had the chance to meet her for our little one and I can never thank her enough for everything she has already given our dog. A big thank you for this love you have for dogs
Cindy is a professional in her profession, she welcomes and takes care of dogs wonderfully. Always very attentive and despite the difference in size, age and race, all these little people find their place and evolve in a large park as they please under the always vigilant gaze of Cindy. I have a little bichon who gets along with both young and old. I always admire Cindy for the joy she has in taking care of all these little ones and I thank her for so much dedication. Chantal Caruso
I cannot recommend Cindy's services highly enough. My Toddy looks forward to every visit. As soon as we approach the house, he starts to quiver with happiness, and that says a lot about the affection he receives! Cindy's kindness and flexibility really creates a great environment for our little Todd, who is very exhausted at the end of each day (and yes, it's tiring to have fun with friends!). Thank you so much Cindy!
My dogs have been going to boarding for around 12 years and I am delighted. My dogs are good, they don't show any negative signs, on the contrary I feel safe and pampered. I have one dog left and I continue to entrust my grandpa to them with complete confidence.
I never left my review and yet I should have done so a long time ago. After a week of boarding, I picked up my Snowy in a strange state, he had difficulty putting a paw down and no longer had his voice. It was made clear to me that my dog was not obeying and that he was a loudmouth! Strange, I had the impression that he was talking about another dog than my Snowy. When I wanted to take him back there a few weeks later, when I got there he started shaking with his tail between his legs like never before, I left just as quickly to find another boarding house. To this day I still wonder what could have happened to him at their place. It was 8 years ago already. Perhaps there has been a change of ownership since then, I hope so for the residents!
Very good kennel. Qualified staff who love dogs. Thank you very much for taking such good care of my little dog. See you soon
Great dog boarding, I recommend without reservation!
I'm sorry, but I've never been to your guesthouse. But I love dogs too much to give you a rating as basic as what I gave you at the start. We need a place like yours. So thank you for your work.
The dogs are very well looked after and the spaces are large for them to exercise. The best thing is to be able to socialize the dogs or not depending on their character and for families to put them in the same box.
Really very professional team and super nice with the dogs 👍 …
Very good boarding for our dog: she is happy to go there and we put her there whenever we need...
Professional service. Very friendly staff. I feel my dog safe there and he is always happy to return there.
Every time I leave, I entrust my cat to Sarah because I know that she takes good care of him and that he is in good hands. Sarah is an excellent professional, always attentive, dedicated, very friendly. Many thanks Sarah.
In a word: EXCELLENT! You can trust him with your eyes closed. My furballs are taken care of and it reassures me every time I entrust them to him 🥰 …
I am delighted with his very professional work! My cats are confident, so I can go away on weekends knowing that they will be pampered. The grooming was perfect too, thank you!
We entrust our cat Lola to him whenever we are away. We feel that she is a professional, lover of animals. We trust him with our eyes closed. THANKS !
Very good work, very professional and 100% reliable. To recommend without hesitation for the greater good of our furry ones.
Trustworthy person, available and attentive. I leave without worries, far from my animals with confidence. Many thanks!
At the top! Trustworthy, pleasant, dynamic person, always smiling, attentive and loving towards animals. My dog loves it :-)
I can only recommend Happy Pet's. Professional, conscientious, dedicated, everything our animals need when we are away. I am delighted and thank her
A marvel for my animals. Very professional and very friendly. Quality service.
Professional and attentive, I recommend without hesitation!!
