Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
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.
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!
There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo. From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away. This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of. Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for. I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift ! Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down. Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! Thank you, Teresa for everything.... Milo and I so appreciate you .....
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.
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.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
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!
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!
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!
Our dog is always in great hands at Zorba kennel! They have a wonderful setup, and it makes me feel confident that my dog has a wonderful pupcation with friends when we are away! Spring break stay last year they did a photo shoot!!
Our pup is always so excited to visit Zorba. He loves the staff and playtime with the other dogs. We have utilized both vacation boarding and daycare. This week we had to go out of town last minute and Zorba was able to give Jax a great stay instead of being crated alone at home. It was comforting to know he was well cared for in an enriched environment. He was all smiles when we picked him up. Thank you Zorba Team, your service is much appreciated.
We love Zorba!!!! Our dog, Rip has stayed there twice now! And we feel so comfortable leaving him there when we go places or on vacation somewhere. Hands down the best and cost friendly place! Everyone there is so nice and friendly and gives our pup the space he needs when it’s needed.
Awesome staff great service and treatment for your fuzzy friends. We take our dog here 4-5 days a week cuz she is temperamental at home alone and we also use their services when we go on vacation our dogs love it she is excited in the morning to go daily
Zorba Kennel is the only place to take your pets!! Like many, my two dogs are an important part of our family and we don't trust their care with just anyone. A few times a month, we need to travel on the weekends and can leave knowing that they are in the best care possible! We know that TC and Eris LOVE going and LOVE the people there! They love the play time with the other dogs and attention they receive. They burn off lots of energy and come home happy. I wish I could leave more than five stars!
The staff was nice and worked well with me for pick up and drop off times. They took good care of my 10 week old puppy. He was very happy when we picked him up and in the picture they had on Facebook. I will definitely go back if we need someone to care for our puppy.
I absolutely 💯 % recommend Zorba Kennel. I am always impressed with the care, quality and kindness they give my dogs and I. Kristine and her crew are AMAZING. Thank you , thank you, thank you for everything. If you need a quality place for your pet look no further. …
Our dog loves going to daycare here and is always so excited to walk through the door! It's convenient to have a place he is comfortable staying overnight when needed as well. 10/10 recommend taking your pets here!
My dog has been going to daycare here for months, and he loves it!! He always comes home happy and tired from playing with the other dogs. When he gets a bath here, he smells so fresh and has these big, beautiful curls! It’s an amazing kennel with amazing people who take great care of the dogs.
My Sheepadoodle loved her time at Zorba Kennel and was so happy to play with the other dogs. It was clean and very comfortable and the staff was great. Their boarding prices were very reasonable too and they fit us in with very little notice. I will definitely bring Chloe back again!
Definitely recommend this kennel! I’ve boarded my dog multiple times! Each time I drop him off, he’s always super excited to see the girls! If you’re looking for a trustworthy, well kept kennel definitely visit Windy Acres! Also the grooming services are great and I 100% recommend Shyann!
Love the girls at Windy Acres! My dog has severe separation anxiety and never could stand being around other people without barking or running away. Now after a month of doggy daycare he wags his tails at the girls when we come in and now has started warming up to other people. They are super accommodating and let me bring his blanket and favorite toys with him and they even bathed him for me ❤️ worth any and every cent!
This is the kennel I will be using to board my dogs from now on. I have tried other kennels and never felt good leaving my dogs there. One of my dogs doesn’t like other dogs and I was always made to feel bad about that. When I called this kennel she said they deal with it all the time and it wouldn’t be a problem. I felt comfortable having them watch my dogs and they even got a complementary bath so they smelled good and were all clean when I picked them up. The staff is wonderful and really put my mind at ease. They even said I could call and get updates on how the dogs were doing if I was worried about them. Because of this, I was able to enjoy myself on vacation and felt confident my dogs were in good hands.
We have used Windy Acres multiple times now..we love and trust this kennel so much. They have always taken care of our GSP, and he always comes home happy, exhausted (in a good way) and smelling amazing! We have used another kennel once and the experience was underwhelming. Our dog came back smelling like he laid in his pee for 5 days..We will only use Windy Acres from now on. My brother also used them Labor Day weekend along with us and they let the pups even play together during play time. We were even able to call and check up on both pups and how they were doing together..They really love your pets like their own. Highly recommend!
Windy Acres was great with boarding our medical marvel elder cat for 2 weeks. Our old lady has given other boarding services some behavioral trouble, but the staff at Windy Acres are truly talented and reported no problem working with her. We especially appreciated the opening hour on the weekend to be able to pick up our kitty ASAP when we returned. Thank you!
I have boarded my two dogs at Windy Acres probably a dozen times over the past several years, and I always have a good experience. The staff is very friendly and you can tell they all really love animals. The kennels are large and I appreciate the option of boarding dogs in the same kennel so they are together. My dogs do come home stressed out, but I believe that is just because of the experience of being in a kennel/around strange dogs and not anything to do with the care the staff provides.
Wendy Acres Kennels is a fantastic choice for dog boarding! I recently boarded my dog there, and I was thoroughly impressed. Not only did they provide a safe and comfortable environment, but my dog also received a bath, which was a wonderful bonus. The staff is incredibly caring and kind, making sure every dog feels at home. The value for the service is outstanding, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Wendy Acres Kennels to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry friends.
Would not recommend. We’ve boarded two of our dogs here twice. The first time was fine, neither bad nor great. The second time however, both of our dogs came home with KENNEL COUGH which then infected our other dog and our cat. All of our animals are vaccinated. Please beware if you’re planning on bringing your fur babies here.
My dog seemed happy with Nikki. He was kissing her when we picked him up. We went back a second time, Nikki wasn't there unfortunately. Didn't have a good experience this time. Dog came home so thirsty. Never have seen him drink water like that. And they didn't feed him breakfast. And none of his treats. They gave him a bath, that we didn't ask for
Absolutely trust the care for our two beagles at Windy Acres. Clean sectioned off dog runs indoor comfort winter or summer as well as easy independent access for dogs doing their outdoor needs. Super kind staff who can walk the dogs in a natural setting for those curious noses to explore! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our puppy dogs. Jerry
