Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
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!
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!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.
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!
A great place! My dog is always sad to leave
Our little Ruby has always been very well taken care of. Darrin & Beatrice just LOVE dogs - gives us peace of mind while travelling knowing our ❤️🐶 is in good hands.
A place where your dog feels at home and gets pampered on the way out!
Dogs are having the time of their lives! Very well taken care of!
Super clean, very professional, super friendly owners and the dog was very happy and relax
What can I say, it a better than some hotels I have been to :).
Best place
I brought sulley my big friend for the first time and he had a great time with beatrice and darren actually it deserves 10 stars i have often seen 5 star dog daycare that are not even worth 1/2 stars but this is the ultimate dog daycare by far thank you for the good care also on behalf of sulley 🐶 🐾 …
For our Labrador Jessy, every stay is a party! It really is a holiday for her ☺️ Playing in complete freedom with many types of dogs, how fun! The care and love that Darren & Beatrice give is 👍 …
Caring and loving! Due to private circumstances, we urgently needed good care for our sweet cuddly toy Macha. Tamara was immediately ready for us. Macha always has a great time at Topcare4dogs and it is important for us to know that she is always taken care of with love. We now live 2 hours away, but are not thinking of looking for an alternative close to home. ❤️🐾❤️
In our opinion, top care 4 dogs is a very nice shelter that has managed to turn our scared dog into a happy companion dog! the contact with the other dogs is going very well. We first had a very unpleasant experience at another kennel, which made our dog very scared. After having had a very nice telephone contact with Tamara from Top Care 4 Dogs, we dared to try this shelter, and with success! Our dog goes there wagging his tail and comes back happily. Tamara is very reliable and knows what she is doing. We have nice contact via the app if there is anything wrong, to get nice photos of our dog! In short; highly recommended!!
Brought my pug Bep to Tamara yesterday! What a beautiful, warm, sweet woman! She took great care of my dog! I will bring her back to her with LOVE! :)
an ideal place for a dog, irreplaceable pet care. The owner of the place is full of confidence, no one will take better care of your dogs❤️
Think carefully before letting your dog stay with Top Care 4 Dogs, we thought to have found a trusted address, but our dog ran away from here. We are only informed a few hours later, residents in the area indicate that the dog was seen later in the afternoon. After an all-night search party with friends, we finally found our dog the next day. There was no cooperation at all from Top Care 4 Dogs, they assumed that the dog would come back on its own. Beautiful stories on the website that come to nothing, the response from the boarding house was and is quite disappointing, they profile themselves as a canine behavioral therapist and provide dog training, but they cannot look after a dog. So top care is not top at all but quite disappointing.
I immediately took our dog to Tamara last week, because my father would end up in the hospital and no one would be home during the day. Our dog was able to come straight away and it was no problem at all if it took longer than expected. He is very well cared for and I really like the fact that he is in the house and not in a kennel. It is a really warm home situation and together with her own pack, our dog (who was not very social with other dogs) is learning to really be a dog and play again. Because I was quite worried, Tamara also keeps me informed and sends me photos showing that he is very comfortable and having a great time. Very pleasant and reassuring. In short: Tamara. You are the best!! And I can't be grateful enough for your good care of "my baby".
Tamara walked our dog two years ago, my dog has now passed away, she still has our key, we have said several times that we would like our key back, we have not received any response. We are not called back, it is certainly very unprofessional that we have to ask for our key. An honest "company" would have done that on its own. I really advise everyone to be careful because your privacy and security are NOT guaranteed.
I thought it would be a nice place to take my dog for the holidays, but it never came to that.... It seemed like a really nice place for our dog, also close to our house, ideal. After the first contact, I made an appointment to meet her, which was canceled by email because she was so busy. Made a new appointment, which was canceled again due to large crowds, with the request to make a new appointment. Then I think, isn't there always a spot available on the day that we can drop by? But yeah, not so. I called; no contact. Message left: I just didn't get a call back. I sent another message wondering if she had time to look after our dog, because it is still a young dog that really needs supervision! Tamara has not responded to this either. I find this very unprofessional and I suspect that she is simply too busy with her grooming salon and walking service, she is just never home. Not a reliable place to take your dog!
Friends of mine had paid for 2 stays worth €100+ euros before COVID. When COVID started and their trips couldn't go ahead, the money was not refunded as they had to come back after COVID. Now that the lockdown is over, this lady refuses to take their dog back and they don't want to pay anything back. This lady is always very (seemingly) friendly via Facebook, but when it comes down to it she cannot be trusted.
Last year and last year we housed our 2 dogs at Top Care 4 Dogs. Because we were unable to meet our drop-off and pick-up times with a seriously ill family member, other times were readily and directly negotiable. Dogs had a great time. We are very satisfied. Rita and Kelly Hermans.
