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.

Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
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.
strongly recommend Christine and Phil to housesit for your kitty. Our pets, Babbles and Cousin Eddy, and property, were in very good hands while we where away for two weeks. They had a fair amount entailed with two cats on different food and needs. Cousin Eddy, or Edoardo, is a barn cat we recently adopted. Eddy is very sweet and stays outside but hangs out the side door wanting to be petted and fed; Bubbles is an indoor cat. Both cats were spoiled by Christine and Phil! Christine and Phil were also very caring and attentive with the needs of our Airbnb guests. During the time we were away they kept us updated daily (including photos of the cats). When we came home, our house was perfect, with lovely fresh flowers, notes for us, and our cats had been well-cared-for. They are wonderful house sitters, and we highly recommend them. They were Five-star sitters of our house and cats!
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!
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
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 $ 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!
I can't say enough about how amazing our experience was with Kevin, and Planet Paws. From the meet and greet, to the time he spent caring for our little cat Sammy over three days, just phenomenal. Thorough, caring, compassionate, and prompt. Sent updates and photos with every visit, and was absolutely wonderful with her. I would recommend them to anyone in need of care for their furry loved ones. Thanks Kevin.
Kevin was so professional and cared for our 2 cats (and more than a few plants) exactly as we requested! We can always tell how our cats feel when we return home from a trip, and we could tell they were happy and got plenty of attention during our time away. And all the plants survived! I'd recommend Planet Paws to any cat parent!
Kevin is a phenomenal dog walker. What he provides is not only dog walking, but also peace of my mind that my dogs are safe and well taken care of. Kevin is an absolute professional and takes pride in his business. Our dogs get great walks and he always walks them for the exact amount of time he is hired for. He provides map information of the route he takes and updates us with a picture of our dogs and how the walk went. We are very comfortable and wholly trust Kevin with our dogs. All in all, he is the best.
We used Planet Paws Pet Care when we went on a two week vacation. Our 2 cats are very social and don’t like to be left alone. Kevin came to our home daily and made sure that their feeding needs were met, litter box cleaned and also spent time playing with them. He provided daily updates and even sent pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our furry boys. We can’t recommend them enough!
If you are wondering if Planet Paws truly care about your pet, look no further, they not only care but go above and beyond! We recently used Planet Paws for our two pups when we went out of country for a vacation. Well, our youngest got into some trouble after we dropped her off and Kevin & Kristie went beyond their 'normal' pet sitting duties to make sure she was safe, happy and well taken care of for the rest of our trip. They sent daily updates (with pictures) of our pack, and we couldn't be happier with them! Thank you so much for keeping Buford & Bernie together and back in our arms! Brook & John
Bailey is always loved and taken care of when he stays with Kevin. Bailey loves to stay at Kevin’s house and to play with the other dogs. We have full confidence that he is doing great while we are gone and love the pictures that Kevin sends us.
I can't say enough about Kevin and his company. He has been helping us out for almost a year now for our puppy and it has been very easy to work with him. He is reliable when we need him and scheduling on the app is very easy. He is great with our dog and she loves him! He recaps the day and sends me pictures of how his visit went with our dog. I highly recommend you use his services if you need anything.
I want to thank Kevin and Kristie for taking such good care of Zoe while we were away on vacation. It gave us so much peace of mind to know she was in good hands, especially considering her recent diagnosis of diabetes. They took special care to make sure she was fed and had her injections at the same time each day. We will definitely trust Planet Paws Pet Care to look after Zoe again in the future!
We absolutely love Planet Paws Pet Care! They took amazing care of our 2 older dogs and cat while we were up north this summer. We knew that our pets were safe and in good hands so we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. We really appreciated the updates as well! I would highly recommend Planet Paws to anyone who needs pet care.
When you need Professional Pet Care get in touch with Kevin at Planet Paws Pet Care. From check-ins, let-outs and walks, Kevin is a great option. He is also certified in emergencies, which makes me feel comfortable.
They did an awesome job taking care of my husky, while we was away on vacation. Gave updates and made sure she had a good time. I will be bringing her back when I go on my next vacation!
I couldn’t be happier with the care these ladies give my dog. He was very nervous in the beginning, but now he’s so excited to go. Seeing my boy so happy when he greets them is all I need, to know that he’s very much loved and taken care of. 😊 …
I would not recommend this dog boarding place. We brought our furbaby there twice. the first time was okay, but unfortunately, the 2nd time 😥we were very unhappy with our precious furbabys care... …
Bed & Biscuit staff are simply great! I highly recommended this place for your fur babies, the staff actually cares!
My 2 dogs have gone to Bed and Biscuit multiple times, and it's been great for all of us. The staff is friendly and really love the dogs. We've even had the bonus of our dogs becoming more comfortable around humans, due to all the love and attention the've received here! The pricing is also incredibly fair.
We love Bed & Biscuit when we need to board our dogs. They're very well taken care of and the staff is great! Prices are very reasonable, and the location is convenient. We won't use any other boarding facility for our two dogs!
Jennie takes very good care of my Daisy. I am dropping her off again this weekend. She treats your dog like her own
We love Jenni @ Bed and Biscuit! My dog goes for doggy daycare 4 days a week and boards when we vacation. We couldn't own a dog without Bed and Biscuit and Jenni. The puppy stage almost broke us. I can't recommend enough.
Everyone there is wonderful made us feel comfortable leaving our dog there we recommend this to a friend
Karen and Erica are wonderful! I've been using the kennel for about 15 years now. Very clean and well maintained. Dogs get daily play time and socialization at no added cost. Most kennels will charge you for this. Which is just shocking to me. Karen and her staff truly love animals and it really shows in the care they provide. I will never use another kennel other than this AMAZING one. Thank you Karen and staff for always taking such good care of my fur babies!
My dog is a huge scaredy cat, and doesn't take to people very well. The staff here were so patient with him, letting me bring him a couple times to get used to it. The owner, Chris, was so friendly and truly made it known she wanted to help get him comfortable. I've now left him for 3 vacations and he's done well every time. I can tell he's well cared for when he's there. Don't look any further, take your dog here!
I always take my dog here. They have taken good care of him while I am on vacation. Easy to find, friendly staff.
We have been taking our dog here once a week for about a year to socialize him. He is so excited to go here every Tuesday and he comes home exhausted. The staff is always great to deal with, they communicate well and clearly care for my animal. Can't recommend them enough.
I've been bringing my dog twice a week for years now. She can barely contain her excitement every time we walk in. I'm thankful for the kind staff who puts up with her high energy!
Ruffin It takes care of our dogs whenever we need boarding. My dogs always seem perfectly fine and their normal selves when I pick them up. The owner is nice and very accommodating. Prices are more reasonable than most other kennels.
After a not so great experience having a friend watch my first dog while on vacation, I decided I would give boarding a try on my next. I found Ruffin it pet resort in December of 2021. We have used them several times for boarding throughout the past few years and have been extremely happy! After picking up both our boys after their last stay, they both came home very happy and very well worn out (which is rare for us having 2 high energy dogs)!! I leave knowing they are being well taken care of and love them being able to socialize and have fun while we’re gone. The staff is also so amazing and kind! Highly recommend!
Absolutely love this place! The staff is so very nice and my 4 month old puppy loves playing with the other dogs. He is exhausted when he comes home. Theo is a new daycare regular.
since the 1st time I took my dog to Ruffin it Chris and her staff have been AMAZING !! Most recently due to a family emergency we had to drop our dog off with no reservation and they took her in with a open date to pick up our do. The fact we could leave town quickly and not worry about our dog made a bad situation easier to deal with !! I would not trust anyone else with my dog!
Very expensive and very leery and weird about me visiting while recuperating. They don't allow it. Absolutely no! I would not trust my precious dogs with them. What happens behind closed doors there that they want to hide
This place claims to be experts at socializing dogs and working with their psychological behaviors….Yet, a dog was turned down because he was scared and very reluctant to get into the kennel for the staff. However, the staff said once he was in the kennel, he was totally fine……but then the response is “it’s not going to work out because he won’t get into the kennel and they’re afraid that he may bite”(yet showed no signs of aggression)” Yet, I wonder, do they turn every dog away that hesitates even a second to get into the kennel? I’m a dog owner of three and I volunteer at a rescue, so this must mean that tons of dogs are turned down at this place. I do not know many dogs, if any, who like or enjoy being locked in a kennel or who do not show some hesitation, just my opinion. Just disappointing that they told me I would not be screwed over, and yet here I am back to square one.
