Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
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 absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
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!
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
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 $ per visit, $23/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!
We reached out to Nancy a couple of times for overnights for our young male lab and she was great! Our need increased after a cancer diagnosis and she was super accommodating to our sporadic schedule while I was unable to walk him at all. Now Nancy comes 2x a week most weeks and our baby seems to really love it! He gets excited when he sees her pull up and is tired but happy when he gets back home. I recommend Nancy and Take the Lead!
We used Nancy and Take the Lead for several years while we lived in Scituate. She was great. 15 months ago we moved to Atlanta but now (10/16) we are moving back. I called Nancy to see if she could take care of our dog and cat for the first to nights while we moved in. Once again she has come to our rescue. We are a big fan of Nancy and Take the Lead. We trusted her with our keys and our pets. She never failed us. Thank you Nancy! You can use her with confidence.
Nancy is so great with our 2 year old lab. She has watched him overnight on several occasions ranging from a night to over a week. He’s always happy to arrive, play with her dogs, and go on hikes :) Highly recommend her!!
Nancy is a real dog person with a big heart for her clients and very knowledgeable. She cares for your pet like it’s one of her own! She sends you photos of your pet while you’re away so you can rest assured they are happy and safe with her!
Call Nancy for your all your boarding needs. She took great care of our 3 papillons while we were away on vacation. Nancy even took the time to send us pictures and updates on how our dogs were doing. I highly recommend Take The Lead Pet Care to anyone who wants a worry -free boarding experience. 5 STARS!
Since moving to Scituate in June 2011, Nancy and Take the Lead Pet Care have been like a second family to our 3 1/2 year old Portuguese Water Dog, Farley, and our kitties. Nancy provides the utmost in care and experience and has been there for us whenever we've needed her--whether a last minute schedule change for impromptu dog care, or as a caring support to show us tips and techniques when our cat Izzy was terminally ill. Our dog Farley joins in her doggie outing group several times a week and always comes home happy and exhausted! Take the Lead has provided boarding for times when we've been away and Nancy treats our dog like her own--she has even sent daily photos and texts. Take the Lead Pet Care is the absolute VERY best care for your pets on the South Shore--thanks so much, Nancy!!
Take the Lead is fantastic! When we moved to Scituate a year ago Nancy was so kind and helpful to us in so many ways. When she takes our high energy vizsla (Ginger) for doggie play dates and walks, she comes home exhausted (not easy to do with Ginger!). Nancy is caring, compassionate, attentive and I feel 100% confident that Ginger is well cared for with her. I recommend TTL to any dog owner!!
I highly recommend Take the Lead Pet Care! Nancy has taken such great care of my 2 labs, and is especially attentive to my elderly one as she ages. Great communication; extremely reliable. I know she loves my dogs!
I cannot recommend Nancy. Initially our experience with her was very positive. She was very flexible with our schedule and arrived when expected. That all changed this week. Scituate had a lockdown and Nancy never arrived at our house to let our dog out. We were not aware of the situation and she never called me to let me know she wasn't going to make it. My dog was left in the house without relief for twelve hours. I realize the lockdown was out of her control but making a phone call was not. Nancy assured me she would be a our house later in the week and again she never showed up and never called.
Take the Lead truly loves our baby and keeps him very active and social. Typically they walk our dog but the value they provide is the flexibility in their care. Time of day, length of service and even sleep over requests are all accommodated by Take the Lead. I have and would recommend their services to anyone that needs care for their pets because our dog is social, fit and well cared for by Take the Lead Pet Care.
Karin is great! She is very reliable and friendly, and our dog Maggie is always so excited to see her when she comes for their walks. She always sends pictures or videos of their walks with updates on how Maggie did. Maggie is still a puppy so Karin has been helping us work with her to teach her good behavior when she is out in the neighborhood. It makes my days at work so much easier knowing Karin is taking such great care of Maggie. I would highly recommend her!
Words cannot express my gratitude towards Karin while she cared for our elderly husky (and two obese goldfish) while we were away for 8 days. Karin was prompt, reliable, and ever so kind to our animals. Her updates put my mind at ease and she really does go the extra mile for her clients. She was super professional and friendly, would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. Thank you, Karin! We are grateful for your services.
Karin is extremely reliable, responsive and goes over and beyond just taking my dog for a walk. I always feel good when I leave for work knowing that she is coming to walk him, play with him and give him all the extra love and attention he needs. Karin also takes daily pictures of him on his walks that I share with my college kids every day as well! She offers the best dog walking service!!
Karin is the absolute best- we affectionately refer to her as “second mom” in our house. One of our dogs was a rescue and came from a pretty tough life so is not great with strangers and she absolutely adores Karin. Karin has been nothing but kind, patient and gentle with her since day one and has earned her trust. Our other dog is a massive, energy filled goofball who worships Karin, when I say “second mom” he starts running around and whining to try and find her. I would never let anyone else in our home with our dogs besides Karin. She is responsible, reliable and your dogs will be in the best care!
Karin is great at what she does! She has boarded our dog at her house several times, when we have gone away on vacation or hosting a party here. She is always sending my son videos of their walks and adventures. She even lets our dog sleep in her bedroom, so she is not lonely. Karin lives close by to us. Every time my dog sees her when we are out walking, she goes nuts trying to get to Karin for hugs and love.
Karin was wonderful. She watched our goldendoodle for the weekend when we got married this fall - she even brought him to the church so we could get pictures with him! She sent us pictures of their walks together and we felt at peace knowing he was so happy in her care. We will absolutely use her anytime we need overnight care again!
We absolutely love Karin (and so do our pups!). After just a short time, we felt she was part of the family. She offers great services - from short walks to boarding when you go out of town. She's great with our pups and is always on-time and reliable. We wish we still lived in Marshfield because we miss her so much! Highly recommend!
We have used Coastline Dog Walking for their In-Home Sitting services for well over 5 years and can't imagine using anyone else! Karin pours her heart and soul into caring for your animal. She is extremely reliable and will truly care for and love your pet as if they were her own. She is meticulous in making sure the pets immunizations are up to date and is very conscientious about pet personalities when choosing to board more than one dog. While away, you will have piece of mind that your pet is living their best life as she sends daily pictures of them truly enjoying themselves. When I drive my dog up her driveway for drop off, she gets so excited! Coastline Dog Walking and In-Home Sitting services is just spectacular, look no further!
We have used Coastline Dog Walking for about a year and a half now. My dog doesn't warm up to strangers easily and Karin was very patient with her. I can always depend on Karin and she always sends the best note and/or picture on the daily interaction. I highly recommend Coastline Dog Walking.
Our 11 year old golden retriever, Joey, has been staying with Karin for the past three years whenever we go away. We could not be more happy with her service! She treats Joey like a member of her family and my kids even joke that Joey is on vacation when he stays with Karin. She sends daily videos/pictures of Joeys activities every day and he never looks like he misses us😂 So happy we found someone so caring and reliable to take care of our Joey.
Krystal and team are so amazing. I had a last minute request for medicine administration while I was already out of town. Krystal and team swooped in to take care of my coco girl. Not only do they provide top of the line customer service but they updated me with photos and notes on how the visit went. I was able to stay up to date without having to stress. Thank you all for taking care of her and saving me from having to come home early. You guys rock.
Kerri is always friendly, accommodating and reliable. Our schedule is sometimes unpredictable and she is always willing to accommodate us even when we book last minute. We feel very comfortable having her and her staff come into our home and take care of our pet. We have had walkers in the past afraid of our Belgian Malinois but Kerri is experienced, trustworthy and knowledgeable, our dog absolutely loves her!
I couldn’t be more pleased with Fetch! Kerri is so accommodating, flexible, personable, reliable, and professional. She’s definitely in the right business. My Golden Retriever Ellie adores her and is such a Waggy-tailed, happy pup when Kerri pulls into the driveway. I love the pictures she takes to document Ellie’s special time with Kerri. I highly recommend Fetch! And Ellie does too!
These guys are awesome. We have been using them since the very beginning and felt such relief finding a great dog walker that we trust. We have two large dogs and Kerri and her team take them on great walks and keep them happy. I can be at work with a clear head knowing that they are stopping by mid-day. Would 10/10 recommend. They are also very reasonably priced and reliable.
Kerri and team have provided wonderful dog walk services for us for a number of years. Super reliable and our dogs love them. The Fetch app is great for managing schedules, payments and tracking. Give Kerri and team a try.
Keri is absolutely amazing! She is great with my 3 fur babies and goes above and beyond for them. She offers a variety of services at very reasonable rates. If you are looking for someone caring, reliable and trustworthy then Keri and her team are right for you and your beloved pets. I would rate her 10/10 if Google gave me the option.
When our pups see Kerri and the other walkers pull up out front, a cyclone of excitement hits the house. They run to the door with tails wagging! Excellent and trustworthy dog walkers and sitters. Highly recommend!
This is an extremely woke, progressive company run by Kerri who is an extreme feminist. I wouldn't let her or her company watch the raccoon that breaks into my trash bin. Completely unprofessional.
Thank you Nicole! Can’t wait to see your pups real soon!
