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!
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!
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!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
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.
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.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
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.
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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 €15 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!
Lina took care of our 9 month old pup Ruairi while we were on holidays. It was our first time leaving him, but we were instantly reassured. Lina updated us daily with videos and photos and we could tell he was having a wonderful time playing with all of his new friends. He was walked and had plenty of exercise and cuddles. We were worried he would not want to come home to us!!! For Ruairi it really was a home from home experience and he was treated like their own dog. We will definitely book Ruairi in again and have recommended Cosy dog boarding to all of our friends.
We left our 2 year old cockapoo Alfie to stay with Lina while we were on holiday. This was the first time he was away from family, but Lina was so kind and reassuring to Alfie. She gave him so much attention, care and affection throughout his stay. Lina spent a lot of time bonding with him , so quickly he was at ease. We were delighted to watch the videos of Alfie in the garden with the other dogs.He made friends with Guinness amongst others. Lina sent us regular updates, videos and messages of how he was settling in. This allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing that Alfie was in a home away from home. Thank you so much for giving Alfie such wonderful care and attention during his stay. I would definitely love Alfie to stay with you again. Siobhan Dearey, Dundalk.
Our dog Charlie has been with Lina for the past week. He’s not used to us being away and was quite nervous to begin with. Lina had a magnificent way of calming and settling him. She gave him lots of her time and attention and spent time getting to know his personality. We could see this clearly from the regular photos and videos she sent to us. She is so kind and caring to all of the dogs in her care. I would absolutely use her service again and would highly recommend this home from home for any dog 🐶. Annmarie & Charlie, Kilcurry, Dundalk.
I was very worried about leaving my two furbabies for the first time ever and I must be honest if it wasn't for Lina with her kind and caring heart and her love for dogs I would have never enjoyed my holiday. She took such good care of them and spoiled them, they didn't want to come home.We will definitely be using Cosy Dog again in the future. We can't thank Lina and her husband enough! They are 2 amazing people!
I highly recommend using Cosy Dog Boarding in Louth for your furry friends. My experience using their services for the first time with my French Bulldog, Canelo, was exceptional. Lina, the caregiver, went above and beyond by providing daily updates with photos and messages, keeping me informed about Canelo's well-being. When an unforeseen circumstance caused me to miss my flight and delayed me from picking up Canelo as planned, Lina graciously accommodated him for an extra night without any hesitation. The facilities boast fully enclosed grounds, providing ample space for dogs to play, run, and truly enjoy their stay. Lina's genuine warmth and evident passion for dogs instill complete trust in her ability to deliver top-notch care. Canelo was treated as if he were part of their own family, and I am immensely grateful for the impeccable service provided. It truly felt like a white glove experience from start to finish. :) I will continue to use her services for the future. Thank you, Lina & Donal!
Lina took care of our puppy very well. We were so happy to leave our puppy with her. And also she keeps us updated with video and photos of our puppy when we were away.
We boarded our big boy several times with this lovely people / dog hotel and he loves it madly and is always so excited to go there. Their own dog is also extremely friendly, playful and mine regards him as his older brother (like peas and carrots). They always take/took such good care of our boy, take him out for walkies in the mountain (never more happy to run in the forest or mountains with Guinness) and gets loads of attention and family time. They have enough space around the house for them to run, play, potter, snif, dig, explore and pent of their energy. For the time your dog is with them they regard/treat it as their own dog. They live close to a mountainous area on the border with Northern Ireland where there is plenty of locations to let the run and roam around freely. Every time when we get him back he is still tired days later and I think he misses having fun and be mischievous with Guinness. Both Donal and Lina are real dog people (like us), have a connection with the dog (sometimes I wonder if she knows him better than I do) and are therefor perfectly capable to take the best possible care of your cherished furry friend / family member. I like the idea that when I go on holiday, my dog has holiday (or a special time too) and they certainly give him that. For me the best indication is how the dog is about it and if he is happy it has to be good. I'm sure he is already looking forward to go back. After all. You can’t fool a dog 🙂
our Cheddar been to Lina s place twice already while we were away. we all think he had great times with Lina. delighted with himself. he didn't even want to leave when we collect him. highly recommend . 👍👍 …
Our dog Benji really enjoyed his stay with Lina and family, he returned home a really happy dog. I would highly recommend this home from home for your dog.
My dog had a good time there ,Lina took care of him very well ,lots of play and treats ,definitely will go back
Kate is the only dog kennel I want to send my dog to. Fantastic!
Our cocker spaniel puppy had his first boarding experience at Kate's Kennels and we were so happy with everything. Bailey was very well looked after and Catherine sent us plenty of videos and photos which allowed us to see how he was getting on while we were away. I would definitely recommend Kates Kennels for your precious four-legged friend!
It was the first time my precious dog had been in kennels and I was pretty nervous. I needn't have been - Kate sent daily videos showing Jess living her best life running round green fields or going for rambling walks or playing with other dogs. It's a brilliant service and I'd highly recommend!
Kate’s Kennels in Castleblaney…what a fantastic experience we had there. Straight away she treated us like old friends and Cuni loved it there. She showed us around and gave us a chance to familiarize ourselves with it all. It’s 15 acres where they have a play area and an area for long walks. It’s big enough to have room to roam but small enough to feel cozy and friendly. The price was excellent and worth every penny if not more. I was worried about Cuni being lonely at night but he was so exhausted from all the play he slept like a baby. Loads of pics and video updates from Kate so I had no worries at all. It’s absolutely ideal. If you need a doggy hotel, Kate’s Kennels is the best around. ❤️
Left our 6 month old puppy Wanda with Rob, she was very well looked after and seems to have had a very good time and excercise on extensive grounds! Will defo leave her there in our next holidays!
I will never recommend this business to anyone! Our dog went in freshly groomed for 2 weeks and when we picked her up she was appalling! Was told she rolled in mud but she reeked of pee and poo and her harness was bitten at which leads me to believe she was left in her harness for the 2 weeks. Had to bathe her as soon as we got home and we were assured she would be indoors as she is a house dog but to me looking the state of her she was left in a shed of some sort. Only booked here because reviews were excellent so it’s probably friends and family leaving the reviews. NEVER again….it’s to the point now that I’m never leaving her with anyone other than family members. Had her in boarding kennels before and she loved them but not this one. I know it’s a business and I thought long and hard about leaving a bad review as I don’t like it but I value my dog more than that.
We left our dog there for a few days. When we went to collect him.he was so smelly and mad thirsty he was not the same dog for a few days . I asked do you have kennels for the dogs and was told no they all live in the living room I was very surprised to hear this.our dog will Never go there again
My 2 yorkies are always very well looked after by Rob, wouldn't leave them anywhere else.
As always we were very satisfied with our little French bulldogs treatment. The staff are all so nice and at the same time 100% professional.
No.1 in East Coast top professional owner.I wouldn't leave my fur baby anywhere else P4T incredible caring top class groom & stay petvacation.
We leave our dog Holly there all the time and she loves it and we find it excellent.
Fantastic doggy day care Rex loves going to see Rob.
Very friendly and helpful local shop. They gained another customer today
So helpful and my dogs love staying over
Emma has minded our dog with house visits, overnight boarding while on holidays and for dog walks. We absolutely recommend Emma’s service. A pleasure to deal with and a genuine love for dogs. Emma takes such great care of our dog as if her own.
Would highly recommend Emma services . She minded our dog scotty for 2 nights . Emma came to meet scotty before his stay with her it was our 1st time leaving him with someone who isn't family and she made me feel really at ease leaving him she is a very friendly and caring woman who enjoys her job looking after dogs we also got we videos of him throughout the day . I would definitely be using Emma again in the future. Thank you so much 😊
