Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
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!
Kerry and Megan were wonderful sitters and took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. They were responsive, gave us regular updates, and seemed to really care about Tumba and Cappa. When Tumba was more timid toward the beginning of our trip and not eating her meals fully, Kerry was sure to ask for additional suggestions from us on how to coax her to eat more. Kerry and Megan also left the house just as we'd left it for them. We really appreciated them going the extra mile to ask about additional cleaning products so they could clean our bathrooms. It felt great to come home and just relax without needing to remake the bed. Thanks for everything, Kerry and Megan! We would certainly entrust our home and kitties to you again in the future.
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.
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
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!
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
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 $30 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!
Our positive and friendly dog had a two-night stay and came back traumatised. He had a very bad groom which took months to recover from. Charged city prices for a ‘summer clip/non-specialty clip’ which was main defence, rather than an apology. We had to beaten it up ourselves. Before and after.
Paw Park has recently gone above and beyond to care for two dogs whose owner required urgent medical care. One of the dogs had challenging behaviours which were managed exceptionally well by the staff.
Second time we have left our dog buddy with them, he always comes home relaxed. They take such great care with him and the facility is always clean and staff are very friendly and helpful.
Ester and her team are a godsend, helped me and my kelpie Norton when we were evicted after the floods. Norton came back after being at Paw Park fit, healthy and happy. Thank you Ester
My 14 year old cat, that had never been in a cattery before, had to stay for 17 days last month. The people were lovely, very caring, they didn't mind a nervous cat's human ringing to find out how my cat was going. The place is clean and well kept and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely take my cat back again
Thankyou to the amazing owners and carers at Paw Park, who cared for our two cats for 6 weeks while we searched for a house. Our girls are safe and well and we are so grateful and appreciative for their kindness and help when we needed it most 🌷🌷 …
Annette and Esther are amazing, you can tell they are passionate and deeply committed to making sure your pets are cared for, they treat your fur babies like they are their own. My two dogs absolutely love coming to stay and they are freshly washed before we pick them up and smell amazing. I wouldn't leave my dogs with anyone else.
Great service from pre arrival, drop off and pick up. Annette was great with our check in and Esther gave us a handover on our fur baby's stay when we picked him up, will definitely use service if ever back in the area
Very happy with the service! It was the first boarding experience for our dog and we were nervous pawrents! However, Annette and team put us at ease with their friendly and professional service. The kennels are very well kept and clean. When we picked up our baby, he didn’t want to go home. He kept running back inside! That is definitely an amazing sign! Thank you guys! We will be back for sure! ⭐️💕 Wan & Craig Bradridge
We trust these guys with all our dogs and cats. We have had all four of them housed and cared for safely while we have gone in holidays. The cat boarding area is always clean and calm. The dog area is always clean and even on very hot days it is kept cool. Esther and the crew are just wonderful we can not recommend them high enough! Thanks guys!
Such a great place to take your pet! Our little Ollie loved his time at Fetch. I can’t thank the team enough for taking such good care of Ollie. We received updates that kept our mind at ease that Ollie was doing well. We will definitely be back!
10/10. Marty has come home happy and healthy. I think he may of wanted to stay at Fetch forever!! This was his third time away from home but first time at Fetch and we felt at ease and very comfortable dropping him off. There are multiple areas for play time and Marty would’ve loved being in his air conditioned room over these last couple of hot, humid days. We will now always use Fetch and recommend to everyone 😊
Our Golden Retriever Luna had a wonderful 15 day stay at Fetch Pet Resort. Through regular Instagram updates I was able to stay informed of her activities there and see her happily playing with other dogs and enjoying a Kong stuffed with peanut butter and biscuits. Luna turned one during her stay and this was acknowledged by the caring staff at the resort with a birthday cookie! We were even able to get Luna groomed during her stay for an extra cost which saved us a lot of time and stress as we had not been able to get an appointment with any local groomers. I happily recommend Fetch to any dog owners looking for five star care for their much loved pup!
Our beautiful (and very spoilt) pup Bobbie has just returned from 3 nights at Fetch and we could not have asked for more. From checking in where we were shown the facilities and her room, to checking out where we left with homemade treats and a freshly bathed pup, the service at Fetch was amazing. Photos are posted daily on Facebook so we were able to see just how much fun she was having on her bush walks and in the play park. We have already booked her next holiday at Christmas but will take advantage of their doggy day care simply because she was so happy with them. To Fetch Pet Resort, thank you for taking care of Bobbie as if she were your own. We are so grateful and would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone.
We left our dog in great hands for a week while holidaying up north. I was completely at ease with regular updates and cannot rate them highly enough. I just unpacked my dog's bag and came across a gorgeous little welcome pack inside. What an amazing business run by genuinely lovely people!
We have left our dogs at Fetch on 3 occasions now. I could not fault the team, they are so attentive and caring with the dogs. The dogs are always so excited when they arrive! Fetch go above and beyond- even hand feeding my fussy dog! If you are looking for a reliable place that cares for your pups like they are family, then don’t go past Fetch Pet Resort.
The team looked after our big puppy exceptionally well, it was her first time in a pet resort and we felt very comfortable leaving her. Loved seeing photos of her having fun on Face Book page. The communication from the team was excellent and they were very accommodating at all times. Nothing was too much trouble. we would highly recommend Fetch Pet Resort .
I am SO HAPPY we found Fetch and that it's just down the road. Our 1yr old boxer had such a great time and came home, happily exhausted, calm and content. The entire process from researching whats offered via their website to making a booking, drop off, pick up and communications during his stay was easy, professional and put my anxious dog-mum mind to rest. Niamh was great to deal with, the facilities are impeccable and the little touches (like the digital 'postcard' on the first night and the goodie bag on departure) show how much passion is put into this business. Will 100% be back!
10 out of 10! This was the first time we had ever left our 2 very energetic and affectionate pups, Prince and Shania. Naturally we were anxious and unsure how they would go. As soon as we arrived at Fetch we knew our fur babies were in the best hands and we immediately relaxed. Niamh was amazing, she put our minds at ease and the dogs instantly trusted her and couldn’t wait to play. Over the 9 nights we were away, we received a number of pictures and updates which helped us remain relaxed and really showed how much fun the pups were having. Thank you so much for such a fantastic service and going well above and beyond. We will 100% recommend and certainly be back! Thank you! P.S Prince and Shania loved their leaving goodie bags!! Thank you.
Best dog accomodation in the area! Would not trust anyone else since taking them to Fetch. My dogs are always happy and excited to be at Fetch and are always genuinely welcomed and looked after. Thank you for being a home away from home for my pups.
