Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
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!
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.
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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.
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
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, $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!
I loved this place the first time I took my dog there for a one-week stay a year ago, and didn’t even think twice about bringing him back this time. I have no doubt he was taken good care of, but I found that the staff was more attentive last time around. Last year they kept me up to date and sent me pictures, this time I had to reach out a few times to see how he was doing. I know this is not a requirement, but I really appreciated those updates last year and had the same expectation for this time. Maybe it was just a matter of letting us know what we should expect. Would also appreciate clearer guidelines for drop-off/pick-up times. When we went to pick him up the staff was on lunch break, but I didn’t see anywhere in the paperwork that they were closed for lunchtime. Overall I think it’s a great place for boarding and I am very grateful for what the Kentucky Humane Society does.
My dog stayed here for about a week and it was not a good experience. The staff seemed unprofessional and disorganized. My dog is very social and goes to daycare regularly but they told me she didn’t pass the daycare evaluation. When I asked for more details they couldn’t tell me why and different staff members told me different things. I had to call and ask them for updates on my dog. Her blanket and toys came back covered in urine and she immediately pooped when we left boarding.
I think there have been some disappointing changes with new staff at this location. I’ve taken my dogs to this location for almost three years and it’s always been lovely! One of my pups is pretty reactive, and the other is often anxious. The staff would work with our dogs, take the time to carefully approach and make them comfortable when they were nervous, etc. and it has helped tremendously! I mentioned that one of my dogs is reactive and barks a whole lot while he’s on leash. The time before this last visit, a staff member took extra care to sit with him and help him in doggy daycare, and came out when i was picking him up to tell me how great he had done and how he was welcome back at daycare anytime! So it was especially disappointing to come back to this location a month later to all unfamiliar faces and surprise re-evaluations that both of my pups failed. My reactive dog, the one “welcome back anytime”, was permanently banned from daycare because his ears were back and at one point his hackles were raised, which they marked as aggression. I understand wanting to be careful and selective, and being cautious around dogs who are new to you (especially loud ones with big feelings) but such a drastic shift after such a long time makes me wonder about extenuating circumstances, and perhaps about the mood and patience of the staff members doing the evaluations. When i was picking them up, the staff member explaining their decision was either unable to provide more detail about what had happened. I wasn’t combative: i recognize that my dog has behavioral issues that we have been working through, and that “he’s never been aggressive before” doesn’t hold much water! I asked for advice on working with my reactive dog to get him better ready for daycares elsewhere (since by all accounts previously i thought the work I’d been doing with him was demonstrably helping) and she handed me a training pamphlet and said “I’m not sure how much it is: I’ve never needed it” in a tone that i tried not to take as too condescending. This happened a while ago, as i waited to leave any kind of review until i thought i could evaluate the situation without being overly emotional. All in all, I’m sad to see big staff changes and will not be back. We’ll miss the people that we knew, but i no longer have confidence that they are the best at recognizing and adapting to different dogs.
Extremely rude staff. Unwelcoming and clearly not prepared to handle dogs when ANY behavioral issues come up. I mean, are these people only prepared to handle military trained dogs? I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. It makes me nervous to leave my dog there for anything. I was also told that they *think* my dog was taken out “at least once” during his 6 hour stay there. And they even seemed unsure about that. So after completely dropping the ball in customer service, and letting me know they were unable to manage a dog showing signs of anxiety, they could not even assure me that i wasn’t going to discover that my dog has a UTI after spending the day with them.
1st time dropping Floyd my 10 month Golden Doodle off for an overnight stay anywhere. A bit reluctant the staff welcomed Floyd & myself so by the time I finished the paperwork I felt comfortable & Floyd was romping around. Facility was clean & staff professional! KUDOS
My cat Kings stayed for a week and requires multiple medications. The staff is very professional and they were able to assure me Kings medications would be no problem. The staff updated me often with photos and let me know how he was doing. They even let him out to explore the cat room everyday. I will definitely board him here again when we go out of town.
Used to be a great place for boarding, daycare, and grooming. But recently it has gone downhill significantly. My dog has anxiety so I try to not change where I take him, but I’ve decided that I can no longer bring him here. The lack of professionalism and care from the staff makes it hard to trust these people with my dog, I don’t recommend East Point to anyone anymore.
My dog came here a few times for day care. Our experiences were mostly pleasant, however, I still had a lot of questions about when scheduled playtimes, rest times and potty breaks were for my dog. The last time I picked my dog up, he peed a stream down the sidewalk trying to make it to the grass and immediately pooped once we reached the grass. I reached out to Eastpoint to ask about his potty breaks and learned that the dogs are not given any potty breaks during daycare and they just clean up after them inside. My dog is new to our family and is potty training, so besides the mixed messages this gives him that could hinder his progress, I still don't want him holding his pee as long as he can throughout the day. We ultimately decided this wasn't the best fit for my dog, however, I wouldn't leave any dog at any day care where potty breaks aren't given. I still support the humane society and appreciate all they do, but I would not recommend this day care facility.
My dog is groomed and boarded here. She loves to come which is a statement in itself. The staff is kind and friendly, feel like we are in good hands! Great communication with staff.
Our Dog had terrible anxiety. Eastpoint Pet Resort was able to make her comfortable and feel loved by everyone. They truly made her feel at home. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend them and will continue to use their services.
