Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
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
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.
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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 is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
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, $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 cannot recommend this place enough!! We drove from Richmond to board our labradoodle here while we went to visit family and we didn’t have to worry one bit after leaving him. The owner is extremely nice and sent multiple photos and communicated frequently! If your looking for a place for your dog this place is worth the drive 100%!
There's nothing I can say that would leave a better impression than this picture of Hank. See how happy he is? He's well loved and cared for every visit, to the point I'm not sure he even misses us or notices that we're not there.
Took great care of our family dog. Already have our next date scheduled! 6/8/23: Dropped off our dog for his 2nd stay and his tail started wagging after he realized where we were! Great pricing. Owner responds to email quickly. Very accommodating for pick up times and drop off times. I would definitely recommend.
I boarded my three dogs at Wilsons for 11 days in early May, 2022. It was the first time 2 of the dogs had ever been away from home. I was nervous about leaving them. After talking with Rhonda about my fears she suggested I bring them for a visit so they could see her and get acquainted with the place. I did, and it went very well. Once I left them for boarding, Rhonda sent videos a couple of times of the three outside exploring the very large fenced in area. They looked very happy and content, which made me feel good about them being there. Rhonda and her staff are excellent. They truly care about the dogs and take excellent care of them. The place is spotless and smells clean. You could not tell dogs were boarded there based on smell. I absolutely will use Wilsons again!
Amazing with our Rottweiler! He loves it there. Been there twice and had no issues.
Words can't describe how grateful I am for finding this place! Driving 40 minutes one way is so worth it. I left knowing I wouldn't have to worry about my boys. I got so many pictures and wonderful messages from the owners the whole weekend they were there. If you want someone to treat your dogs like you would, they need to go here. ❤️
Took great care of our dog while we were away for a little more than a week. Their nightly rates are very reasonable. We will definitely use them again if the need arises.
We had the best experience! It was the first time leaving our toy poodle with anyone. They were wonderful sent me a couple message during his stay and pics to assure me he was doing great! We will always book with Wilson’a in the future and have already been recommending them to friends and family! ❤️
We bring our English Bulldogs here while we're on Vacation, they absolutely love it here they are the best and it's very relaxing knowing their being taken care of and are safe!
They ALWAYS take great care of my dog! She loves going there. The pricing is great to top it off!
Love to have these folks care for our pups! They take great care of them. We are so pleased to have this service when we take day trips or go out on our boat. It’s nice to know your furry babies are being loved!
If your family is like our family, when leaving our canine for extended periods of time with others, often causes anxiety as we stress about the care being given. Thanks to Lakers Pet Sitting & Dog Walking services near Russell Springs, KY, our day trips and extended week vacations now are stress-free, as we've witnessed firsthand the exceptional care given to our "boy" during our absences! Bob & Kari's loving care for our canine family member over the last two years has been exceptional. Our canine companion never lacks for attention and is all wiggles and wags when greeting either Bob or Kari for his pet-sitting dates. From single day walks and play-dates when we've had out-of-the-area appointments to multiple day canine and family vacations, our "furry son" has made himself right at home in their home and returns home a happy relaxed "pup". If you are looking for trusted and professional pet sitters, who will either come to your home or bring your furry friend to their home, then you need to contact Bob & Kari with Lakers Pet Sitting & Dog Walking!!
I have been using Bob and Kari a few months now and they exceed my expectations for watching one old cat. They take their time with her to coax her to come out to be petted. They retrieve my mail without having been asked, I get photos and even video when she finally appeared. I highly recommend Laker Pet Sitting for all your pet needs.
We have used Lakers Pet Sitting & Dog Walking for several of their services. Kari has walked our 3 pups for several years as well as she has provided overnight pet sitting services for us. Our dogs are always super happy to see Kari when she arrives, they always return from their walks relaxed and clean-no muddy paws or wet fur, she leaves detailed reports on the visit, leaves the house as she found it and is willing to do whatever asked. I feel confident in recommending her services!
Kari and Bob have watched our pets for us and we could not have been happier. They treated our dogs and cats as if they were their own pets. They were especially good with our older poodle. They didn't mind changing his diaper and giving him the care he needed. Also both Kari and Bob worked for our pet sitting business for almost 10 years. They are reliable, trustworthy, knowledgeable and caring. I wish them much luck in their pet sitting business. Russell Springs is lucky to have such a dedicated pet care team.
Kari walked my Mom’s dog 3 times a week for quite some time. It was a good experience for the whole family. If an issue came up (bad weather or illness) Kari always let us know about it. If you’re looking for a caring, trust worthy, dependable dog walker, Kari should be your first choice.
I highly recommend Lakers Pet Sitting & Dog Walking! They provided exceptional care to our new kitten while we were out of town, and we will definitely use their services for all our animals in the future. They exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond to ensure our kitten was comfortable. Thank you Bob and Kari!!
These folks are absolutely awesome at what they do. We always feel comfortable leaving our pets knowing they are in the best care. Kari and Robert come to our home prior to us leaving to catch up with our dogs each time we use them. They take notes when we give them instructions. They send us pictures of our dogs while we are gone and communicate with us at each visit. They also ensure that we have returned home safely to our dogs before calling their job done. One of our dogs is afraid of strangers and Kari has gone above and beyond to meet her needs and make her feel comfortable. Laker Pet Sitting & Dog Walking is always on time and arrive when they say they will. They are trustworthy with your pets as well as with your home. They are overall great people that care and love your pets too.
Kari has taken care of my dogs for over six years. She treats them and loves them as though they were her own. If she suspects anything unusual with them, she always informs me. She even accompanied me to the vet when it was time for one of my dogs to cross the rainbow bridge. She has always been dependable regardless of weather. I trust her completely and know your animals will be in good hands.
Kari is an outstanding pet sitter. I was referred to her for her pet sitting service and could not be more pleased and appreciative for her care of my cat. She is extremely dependable, compassionate and communicative and goes above and beyond to care for others' animals as she would her own. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Kari is the best!
Hollie dog always loves her spa treatments here! Also, they just had her for her first overnight stay! Joyner PREMIUM Pet Care went above and beyond to make 'ol "HOL-HOL" comfy and to feel like she was right at home. She definitely enjoyed the association and some play time with all the other doggies, and I could tell she also fully took advantage of the attention and extra loving she was shown by the Joyner's, their family, their furbabies, and their other pet guests! She'll be back for sure!
Love love LOVE! Joyner Pet Care was so easy to work with and kept me updated on my fur baby while I was away, allowing me to have a vacation without worry! More than happy with the service I received and will be booking with them again! Added a photo sent by Joyner Pet Care of my boy playing in their play yard!
They did an outstanding job with my babies. If you are looking for someone to treat your babies like their own, you’ve found the right place. They took their time and took care of every single need me and my doggos had! The only place I fully trust with my babies! 💜 …
Lensey and Jonathon take great care of my pup! We have a clean, tired guy when he comes home from a long weekend playing at their home. Lensey does a great job grooming him as well!
Joyner pet care done an amazing job with our baby. He got a grooming package and spent the night. Amazing people and amazing services ❤️.
Super professional and amazing with difficult dogs. Lensey really cares so much for every dog and took so much time with mine who is terrified of nail clipping.
We have used Ott's boarding facility for 2 years now. My dogs love going there and are always well cared for and always happy too. I highly recommend them for your boarding needs.
Our dogs hate going to a pet boarding place, but they actually love going there! We have never had a problem there and the Ott's have been great people to work with.
We took are dog to the boarding my dogs Big food container was empty when it was full when we brought them there two day ago, one of my dogs was covered in pee and they accused her of breaking the kennel when it was broken when we first got there. Never again.😡😡😡 …
Very nice people boards 20 per day had individual run for dog to go outside daily.
I will be boarding my fur baby there after visiting with them
They treat your pet like family!
Highly recommend!
