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.

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.
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!
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!
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their 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 them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were 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 Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make 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 of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. 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. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
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.
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
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!
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!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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!
We take our dogs here, and they love it. Great space and Megan and team take good care of them. Love that they provide photos and videos on Facebook as well. Our go-to for daycare and boarding!
She is really awesome. I had to go somewhere urgent and couldn’t leave my dog last moment anywhere. I tried to find places and couldn’t find one. Then I went to her after finding this place in google. She was an angel that helped me and took care of my dog for that day. God bless her.
The only place I feel comfortable taking my dog! Excellent care every time!!!
Absolutely wonderful service, my dog had the time of his life during his stay at Out On A Leash! Easy communication with staff, reasonable pricing, and all in all a great experience. Would highly recommend both their daycare and boarding services!
Pembi goes 3 times a week and LOVES it. She comes home exhausted but happy so really you're getting 2 days for the price of one as she sleeps for a lot of the day after. I'd highly recommend Megan and her team.
Extraordinary pet boarding! If you could live a dog's life this is place to do so. Holly and her team are there to take care of your furry family member when you are traveling or working. Great people, great place, great care!
Max, our Westie, isn't used to being boarded. He stayed elsewhere once and got very sick. When he went to Out On a Leash he had so much fun, played hard and stayed healthy. I love that he can run around freely in a huge, safe outdoor space!
Great for dogs but if the owner does not like you for a misunderstanding she treats you horrible!! Her employees dictate who the like there and who they dont! Lost my business and sad because the customer should always be first and right. Misunderstandings do happen in Life!!! To get them to call you back is asking way too much !!
If I could give them a million stars I would. They have been so great with our two dogs, both of whom have anxiety in different ways. Highly recommended!!!
awesome people who provide great care for my dog. he loves to go to day care.
Michelle has been taking care of my dog when I go out of town for a couple of years now. I always have full confidence that he will be well taken care of with Michelle. She’ll always be the first I call, Moe wouldn’t have it any other way!
Horton's House has it all. Excellent, experienced training & care givers all at an outstanding home-like doggie retreat. The Horton's House crew is skilled and accommodating. Best place for our best friends for extra play time and when we travel.
Best dog boarding experience we have had. They are very good with our dogs and treat them as family. Dogs get plenty of love, attention, exercise and playtime with other dogs. They communicate often on how the dogs are doing and they are constantly sharing pictures. They did great with our high maintenance COVID chiweenie pup. She is used to tons of attention. Our golden retriever was happy and well cared for. Great experience!
Our high-maintenance "Covid Puppy" is so lucky to have friends at Horton's House and his humans are so lucky to have Michelle's patience and guidance!
Pretty awful to do this in your work van. Everyone knows what kind of people you are. These people of Horton's park in between two handicapped parking spots in Fairwood shopping center by Bartells. Don't even care that the handicapped people in those vehicles couldnt get out or into their cars due to blocking. Dont park on the white stripes between handicapped parking stalls!!!!!
When someone who takes care of your 4 legged child loves him as much as I do what else do I need to say. Our dog Tex loves it there and it is a fabulous facility.
Most wonderful place to board you pet.
House is a disaster, kennel part is decent though.
They are really nice people
Bellevue petsitters are the only ones I trust with my weird little dogs. They really took the time to get to know me get to know my house and get to know the quirks and needs of my little chihuahuas. They've come out on short notice when there was a family death and I can't thank them enough. After interviewing and searching for a pet sitter for weeks I highly recommend paying at the extra few dollars to have the true professionals that are Bellevue pet sitters join your team and give peace if mind when you're away!
We used Bellevue Per Sitters while I was in the hospital having my first human baby. We loved getting feedback after every walk letting us know how our puppers was handling everything. Our dog walker gave a detailed report on her visits with our dog, including photos for each visit. She even vacuumed in preparation for us arriving home! When we got home, there was a card on our refrigerator congratulating us. We highly recommend Bellevue Pet Sitters.
Anna did a great job taking care of my fur baby, Garbo. My first experience with Bellevue Pet Sitters was for a two week vacation and I was a little nervous being gone for so long for the first time using this service. David, Elizabeth, and Anna provided great service and quickly earned my trust. Garbo loved Anna too! Thanks for worry free vacation!
My cat sitter, June did a great job!!! Overall I'm very impressed by this company and will absolutely use them again and recommend them to friends and family. I was very impressed by the online profile they have you fill out in addition to the owner, David coming by to visit before you leave town. I wasn't nervous at all about leaving town. They are real professionals and have thought of every detail. And the daily updates (with pictures) were very sweet. Thank you David and June!
David does an amazing job with both our dog, Edison and cat, Mesa. He always makes sure to spend quality time with them, with lots of play and affection. He has fantastic communication and leaves daily updates on how the pets are doing and goes above and beyond with toys and treats. We have used Bellevue Pet Sitters extensively over the past two years and have been very happy with our decision to do so.
I have used Bellevue Pet Sitters for 2 years in a row when I had to travel out of state for 2 weeks and each time I was pleasantly surprised to see how well my kitties were taken care of by June. Everyday June sent me a pet journal and photos to let me know they are doing fine. The best part of it was coming back home to a clean home and happy babies. I would only trust Bellevue Pet Sitters with my four legged family.
Emma at Bellevue Pet Sitters took care of our cats when we went on vacation with daily house visits. I cannot recommend them enough! They were wonderful to work with, Emma sent us daily notes and pictures.
I had a wonderful experience with Bellevue Pet Sitters from the moment I called them. I felt that they cared about me and my sweet dog. I left my dog with Janice and she was beyond helpful and caring. I almost feel that when I returned that my dog wanted me to stay away longer since he had such a great experience. I would recommend Bellevue Pet Sitters to anyone and everyone.
When we arrived home after our vacation everything at the house was in good order and the cats couldn't wait to play! Everything went swimmingly and I must say that my husband and I are very very happy with the Bellevue Pet Sitters care for our cats. This is the first vacation we've been able to go on without our male cat having a urinary tract infection when we got back (from stress). We definitely plan on using their service again. I look forward to working with them again in the future!
I had a great experience using Bellevue Pet Sitters. David greatly decrease my anxiety about leaving my cat Mems for the first time. David did a great job, keep me updated with emails and spent some quality time with my silly gato. Bellevue Pet Sitters is the only service I will use when business takes me out of town. Highly recommended.
