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.

Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
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.
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
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.
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!
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
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!
Our dog, Chloe, is usually not good with anyone but her immediate family, but she is always great when she stays with Loida. You can tell that Loida is very caring and absolutely loves dogs, so you can trust that she will treat your dog as if she/he were her own. She has always been so gentle, careful, and loving with Chloe, who definitely requires a lot of attention and patience, and we can rest easy knowing she’s in good hands.
Loida ALWAYS treated Hershey and Swisher as if they were her own! I am very picky about who I leave my boys with and was beyond comfortable whenever they stayed with her! The entire place is spotless, and she cleans with all natural ingredients, never any harmful toxins! My pups were always so happy when they got there and never ready to leave!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From Hershey and Swisher!!!
Absolutely the best dog sitter ever! Genuinely cares about your pups. I know my girls are in good hands whenever they are here.
Lorida is simply the best in the business..she really cares ❤ about my dogs,highly recommended
A lot of cute dogs brought here by their owners are happy to be here.
I cannot say enough good things about this company, their owner, their walkers and their dedication and love of animals. The owner Laurie, is a pleasure to work with, super flexible and dependable always. They have built a touching relationship with my dog who gets so excited to see them. They do adorable write ups about each visit and show me photos while she’s out for a walk and she’s clearly very happy.
Laurie has been so great taking care of our two dogs while we are away! The pups love her and we always feel good about leaving them in her very capable hands! We'll continue to use her services and would recommend her to anyone!
We are so happy we found Blissful Wags! Laurie, the owner, has been a lifesaver from day one! When our pup was younger we used her drop-in services, which gave us great piece of mind. As soon as he was old enough, we brought our dog to day camp and I’m not sure who loves it more, us or him! Laurie has a beautiful fenced in yard where all the dogs are free to run around and play. Beau loves to spend the day playing with his friends. Laurie updates us regularly throughout the day with pictures and videos. She is so reliable, great with the dogs, and really truly loves them as her own. We are so thankful we found Blissful Wags and would give 10 stars if we could!
Can't say enough good things about Blissful Wags! I've heard so many horror stories about dogs being kenneled and unattended to so I was extremely nervous when looking for a dog sitter for my new puppy. We first did a "meet and greet" With Laurie and our boy to see if it was a good fit. We were happy with the layout and vibe so we decided to proceed. In the beginning we were only there sporadically to ease our pup into the transition, but now it's like his second home! Our baby went from a nervous little pup who kept to himself to a confident, playful dog! Laurie is so good with the dogs and truly cares about each as if they are her own. Also, she frequently sends pictures which is so important to an anxious person like myself! My mind is completely at ease while I'm at work and our boy is at play. 10/10 recommend!
We found Blissful Wags after we adopted our 7 month old rescue this past January. She had energy to burn and loves to play and this was the perfect fit! Laurie the owner has been such a gift. Not only is she fantastic with the dogs she's a terrific human as well. Our now one year old pup goes on a regular basis including some overnights. Laurie is very careful to screen all new dogs and there are no kennels. It's a huge fenced in yard with ramps, slides, ropes and a pool. Inside is completely dog proofed and clearly catered to the dogs needs with beds and chews. I know that when I leave our girl she is in good hands!
Blissful Wags is the best! My Brittany, Piper loves when Laurie is taking care of her. Laurie walks and plays with your dog and updates you with pictures. . I cannot say enough good things about Blissful Wags!
Laurie is The Dog Whisperer! My recently adopted rescue dog had many social issues with people and other dogs. Not with Blissful Wags. He adores Laurie and definitely misses being there. What a comfort that was. Couldn’t recommend more!
My puppy loves Blissful Wags! Laurie takes great care of all her puppies and sends multiple photos throughout the day. It’s so great to have a puppy daycare/staycation where you can rely on someone to make sure your puppy is comfortable and always having fun! Cannot recommend enough. My puppy is always excited to go and hangout with her friends 😊
I am so happy I found Blissful Wags! The owner, Laurie is fantastic! She is trustworthy and truly loves and cares for my dog. Her home has a huge fenced in yard and the dogs are free to roam anywhere in the house. Lexi loves staying over and always has a blast! I highly recommend them! I would give Blissful Wags 10 stars, if I could! You and your furry loved ones won’t be disappointed. Blissful Wags is the only place I trust completely to watch my furry child!
Our corgis absolutely love it at Blissful Wags. Laurie is so incredible with dogs and makes them feel right at home while sending us lots of photos and updates. I can see how much she loves the pups that she watches whether it's overnight boarding or daycare. I never worry about leaving our dogs with her as I know they are extremely well cared for!
Disappointed: Unfortunately Morgan did not return my 2 phone calls over a 14 day period. From all the positive reviews, I was excited to find Alpha Pet Care and wanted to inquire about their services and if they would take on new clientele. Fully understanding we are all busy and it's tough to multi task, I would have appreciated a call back. It's all about communication and good customer service but Alpha Pet Care fell short on meeting these expectations.
Morgan is great! I have used her walking and boarding services for the past few years. She's very knowledgeable and trustworthy. My dog and I have been very pleased with the care she gives. Highly recommended
Our dogs are always very excited for their daily walk with Morgan. Morgan is very flexible with scheduling walks, treats the dogs with respect and provides an affordable pet care solution. Recommend to all in need of pet walking solution.
Morgan has been involved with pet care and services for years. She is incredibly reliable and takes care of animals like they were her own. Whether it be a daily walk or a petsitter for a getaway, she is the best choice!
I have seen a huge difference in our dogs since they started having daily walks with Morgan. They are happier and more relaxed when we get home from work. We also enjoy our vacations more now that we have someone who cares for our dogs as much as we do!!
This is a kennel free , free roaming facility . Such a special place for a special friendly pup. Highly recommended. Well maintained .
Are they closed? I am trying to call them and seems like number is disconnected
We have been taking our Mia girl here for a year now. Gloria, Dom and their son have made us feel so comfortable when leaving our pup Mia. I opted to have Mia stay here instead …
Buddy loves going to Besties. We know hes in good care with Gloria and Dom. Facility is amazing!!! I would refer any pup to this place
Gloria and Dom treat the dogs like family! We have been using them for 2 years now and have been happy. When we go away and leave Champ with them we know he is well taken care of and has the time of his life with his friends. They truly love them like their own
The only people I trust with my little puggle! They have been watching her for 4 years and are amazing, kind, loving, and reliable! She always comes home really happy and tired lol. Really thankful for them!!
