I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
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.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
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.
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.
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
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, $21/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 can’t recommend Nancy and her team enough! I have a 17 year old cat who is generally on the healthy side for her age, but does throw up often or occasionally miss her litter box. She’s also on a stricter feeding schedule to try and help with these issues as well. Because of that, it makes it hard for me to have friends or family care for her properly since she requires a little extra energy and I’ve always felt anxious leaving her because of that. I finally bit the bullet and inquired with Nancy about her services. I was going to be taking a 5 day trip to California and didn’t want to have to worry about my cat the whole time. Nancy kept me completely stress free my entire trip. She sent me thorough updates during each visit, with multiple photos and videos every time. She kept an eye on both the throw up and litter box issues I mentioned and kept me updated on what she observed. Not only that, but I could tell she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my cat which is all you could ever want from the person taking care of your pet - she’s a genuine animal lover and I truly felt like my cat was in good hands. My apartment was well kept as well, Nancy brought in the mail, took out the trash and even swept the litter my cat loves to kick onto my bathroom floor - this is all stuff I didn’t expect but it was much appreciated coming home after a long flight and finding my home in good shape. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust now for any future trips and to have the peace of mind that my cat is safe while I’m away!
My dog Bella and I love everyone at No Place Like Home. They've taken such good care of her and she is so happy every time they come to take her for a walk and/or give her her dinner! The pictures they send me with each visit makes me smile and de-stresses me right away. Thank you all. I highly recommend this company and suggest you check them out.
I am surprised I haven't reviewed them yet... not because they don't deserve glowing reviews. Cheryl has been caring for my girls lately and i have been very grateful for their care and how they report each time how it went. She really takes time to interact with my dogs in the time she is with them. That makes this dog mom heart feel good especially since i have to leave them alone for multiple hours. They are great to work with and technological tools make it even better. I love getting pics every day of how the girls are doing. Another great quality they have is adjusting with the shifting needs that my dogs require at times. They are fabulous to work with. Highly recommend.
Nancy and Allison were the best caretakers for our two dogs! We were thrilled to know maple and Willy had the best treatment. I would highly recommend No Place Like Home and will definitely be booking with them in the future!
We were scrambling to find a sitter for our cats, with little time to spare. Nancy was immediately responsive, able to set up a meet and greet within days, and followed detailed directions perfectly, including giving our senior cat medication. She was also able to effectively delegate to one of her employees. We also really enjoyed the daily updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend! We are just sad we are moving out of the area and will not be able to use her company again.
I have known Nancy for several years. We each own a professional pet sitting business and while we overlap in a couple of towns, we also service towns the other doesn't service. We collaborate and speak weekly. We refer to each other. I trust that if I refer a client to her business, that she runs her business in a top notch way and know those clients will get the same care we would provide. She is fully insured and bonded. Has employees who are trained well and covered under a WC policy. She does a great job.
I love Nancy and so do my pets! She is trustworthy, friendly, responsible and professional. When she cares for my pets she never fails to go above and beyond. My favorite part of having Nancy care for my pets how she always sends me daily text updates with pictures. She is also always available to do last minute dog walks and weekends away. When we go away and leave our pets, we can relax knowing she will care of them like they are her own!
I had to write another review for Nancy and her team. They've taken care of my cats for over 3 years now and have done an excellent job. I adopted a new dog that has trust issues with strangers and didn't want to board him like my other dog. Nancy and her team helped put a plan together in place to get him introduced to who would be taking care of him. I am so thankful that not only they helped make this work out, but also their patience and understanding with my dog's special needs. Could not ask for a better team to take care of my pets!
Nancy and her staff at No Place Like Home have been our pet service providers since we moved to the area a couple years ago. They not only provide quality care but they are also very flexible with their schedule. There have been more than a few times where I've had to ask the move my dog up in the daily dog walking schedule and Nancy has always found a way to make it work for us. I would recommend No Place Like Home to anyone looking for a a pet service company who treats your pets like their own.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending Nancy. She is the best! She has looked after our dog, Rosie, multiple times including some overnights and we have total faith and confidence in her. She is a total professional with a great personality and you just know that she adores dogs.
Cody at PT’s Pet Sitting is AMAZING. I was so nervous leaving my 3 babies for two weeks. I found PT through Google reviews and gave them a call. I met with Cody and knew immediately my kitties were in good hands. Cody took EXCELLENT care of my babies. They received tons of love and attention. I even received photos of them when I was away. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and TRUSTED!! I will 💯 use Cody next time I travel. He’s the BEST!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s
We’ve moved a fair bit up and down the east coast. We always worried about finding reliable, caring, and compassionate pet care. PT’s came highly recommended shortly after we moved to Voorhees, NJ - we never looked back. Kevin and Tracy are kind, caring, compassionate people that have a deep love for animals. Kevin has done countless dog walks and drop-in visits when we were out of town. Oksana (8yr old lab mix) in particular can be a bit wary of new people and he won her over quickly. Maeve (5 yr old hound mix) quickly learned their walk schedule and eagerly would check the windows for his arrival - with Oksana joining in too! As soon as his car would pull into the driveway she would start with her excited hound noises. Unfortunately we lost Oksana quickly after an unexpected illness in July 2024. As part of her remembrance I went through to find videos important to us. Among those was the last time Kevin got to say hi to her - despite her being sick it’s clear how much she adored him and how excited she was to see him. We view PT’s as part of our extended family - it’s not easy to trust others to care for your fur babies as you would. PT’s however has a heart of gold. Thank you Kevin for all the wonderful memories and love you’ve given to our family ❤️ p.s. added photos including of latest additions - Sasha (5mo ACD mix) & Lisbon + Venice (4mo tabby kittens)
I can’t thank PT’s Pet Sitting Service enough for their exceptional dog-walking service, and especially Kevin for taking such amazing care of my dogs, Zoose and Zoey! What I love about PT’s Pets is that you always get the same dog-walker with every visit which makes me and my dogs feel very safe and comfortable. Kevin is kind, incredibly reliable, always on time, and treats my dogs as if they were his own. Zoose and Zoey absolutely adore him and always look forward to their walks every week. He is so flexible when my schedule changes and even ready to come out twice in a day if needed to feed and walk Zoose and Zoey. The love, attention, care, and exercise they get have made such a positive difference in their happiness and well-being. Kevin truly treats them like family members and even gave them a stuffed animal gift during the holidays that they love to play fetch with! Some dog walkers spend more time on their phone, taking pictures of the dogs instead of watching, caring and walking them. This worries me because of the close proximity to the animal shelter and the larger dogs that are walked by Volunteers. My dogs love to bark at them and especially Zoey who just wants to run towards them and interact. But not Kevin-he is so attentive and never leaves the dogs out of his sight. I love this about PT’s Pets - Kevin leaves a physical note afterwards on the counter letting me know how Zoose and Zoey did during their walk which gives me peace of mind. I always know they’re in great hands. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional service, I highly recommend PTs Pets! Liz
This pet sitting service is the best. Especially our dog walker Kevin. Our white pug Fanny absolutely loves him and waits at the door for his arrival. PT service is reliable. Affordable. Knowledgeable. Kind and affectionate to our pets. They are also very honest and trustworthy.
PT's Pet Sitting Service is, by far, the best pet sitters we have used! Tracy is very accommodating and Kevin takes great care of our dogs and we wouldn't trust anyone else with our fur babies. Kevin spends time walking them (even though we have a Fence and has told him he could just let them out back), feeding them and making sure they are doing okay. We usually book with plenty of notice but if an emergency comes up, I call tracy or Kevin and they help us out! Jack also helps with our dogs and has been a great dog sitter giving our dogs all the love they need. He also sends us amazing photos of our dogs.
Kevin has taken care of of my two dogs since they were pups! He currently comes everyday while I’m at work to let them out. If you could see how excited they are to see him- tails wagging! Going over to him for some petting! My girls both love him so much! And I trust him! He does extra things like brings in the garbage cans. Such a wonderful person!
Kevin has been absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs. He’s reliable and always able to help with last minute needs. I have one dog who is really nervous and he worked with her to gain her trust. I would definitely recommend PT Pets to anyone who needs some help with their dogs.
PT Pet Sitting came highly recommended to me by my sister, who had used their services for a couple years with wonderful results. I’ve been using their services for about two years, and I can’t say enough good things. They are highly reliable, extremely caring, kind, responsive, honest, professional and flexible. My two Airedales enjoy their own home when I’m away, and I have peace knowing they are well cared for and relaxed. They even work with me to have an emergency plan in place. It’s been a blessing finding PT Pet Sitting. I highly recommend them.
PT’s Pets have been in our family for the past 15 years and have taken excellent care of our dog, Birch, every week - since he was a pup. Birch loves them and with good reason, so do we. PT’s Pets - Kevin, Tracy and team are wonderful human beings who provide outstanding, reliable, and competent care. They don't just show up - they provide an invaluable, professional service and always exceed expectations. We know our dog is shown love and well cared for when we are away and they keep an eye the house, too. PT’s Pets is simply the best pet sitting service around. If we could give more than 5 stars...⭐️❤️🐾🐕
PT’s, and even more specifically dog walker Kevin has provided my pup with such high quality and compassionate care!! We are so thankful for all the love and care he has provided!! We hope to see you again, and will be keeping you in my prayers!!
