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 very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
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.
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.
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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!
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.
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!
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, $10/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!
You may have to get on their waiting list, but The Doghouse is well worth it. Their huge play area is perfect for active play, especially important for high energy dogs like ours. He comes home tired! We get a report, at pick-up, of who he played with, what he did, any behavior issues. Our rat terrier had a problem with playing too rough. They brought in a trainer to teach him to read and respect other dog's signals. They also taught him to walk off leash with a group of dogs. There is no end to the care and love they give each and every dog.
Our dog has been to other daycare’s, but none of them compare to the Doghouse. She pulls as hard a she can to the doors when we arrive and she loves handlers! Even though she can’t talk, I just know she would rate it 5 stars. She has made so many new dog friends and I would 11/10 recommended the Doghouse to anyone!!
We love The Doghouse so much! Our dog has been going there for 5+ years and every time he comes through the door he's greeted by name with excitement. He boarded there when we took a 2 week vacation and I felt totally comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We're excited to start sending our puppy there in a month or so!
This has to be the absolute best place in the state for dog day care. Most of the day is outside, they play with similar size dogs. The best part, might be how excited the staff is to see your dog when you drop them off. Get on the waitlist - it’s worth it
Not very useful service anymore unless you have lots of money and time to jump through their many many entry hoops. It's more like an exclusive club than an actual beneficial service. I attempted to re-enroll my GSD after a few years away and the requirements just to interview the dog along with the wait-list were no go. They treated us like we were absolutely asking the impossible for the dog to have an (expensive) day care slot now & again and come back in a few months or never. The irony is my dog is actually* featured * in a picture on their website. But we were treated like nope, no room at the inn...get outta here stranger. They also tack on many many fees. They charge you to even to interview your dog to see if they might let it stay. The high overhead of the estate like premises probably has something to do with the high costs too.
As a former dog handler at a day care in MN, I really like this place. We've taken obedience classes here, boarded our dogs here, and bring them to day care. Every aspect has been great. They have 24 hour, on-site staff for boarders, and even take your dog home with them if they're stressed out while boarding. The different levels are great with so much property and the freedom it offers the dogs if they can handle it. (We'll get there one day with our dogs. Ha.) The walks they offer are an added bonus. One of our dogs is deaf and has a hard time understanding dog language, so we really appreciate the extra attention she gets when she goes to day care, since she has a hard time finding play buddies.
We've been doing training with Kim for the past year or so and it's completely changed my dog and i's relationship. We love the doghouse
I am disappointed in the level of care for my dog. I was impressed with the facility and the fact that they had so much room outdoors and had been to several other dog day cares. The Doghouse cost a little more than others and was further away from my home. I made the trip, just leaving earlier, and was willing to pay a little more. My very easy going and obedient dog was miserable. It poured rain all day and I learned that the dogs are left in the rain unless there is lightening. There is no place for them to get shelter. When I picked her up they reported that the handlers would not be giving her a bath because of the way she behaved when they tried to rinse her. Although I have taken her other places to get bathed and they have all reported how easy and sweet she was. I asked how she behaved, because I have not seen any negative behavior from her since I rescued her 9 months ago. All I was told is she was stressed. I pay for dog day care to receive positive benefits for my dog, not negative ones that stress her out. The "handlers" are not friendly to the dogs, they just seem to handle them. If a dog is stressed it doesn't take an expert to know you should talk to them in a soft voice and offer some reassurance. It is not worth the money for my sweet dog to have a bad experience and adverse affects. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
Love working here. Awesome place, awesome people and even more awesome dogs!
Our lab loves this place!! We regularly use them for daycare, boarding, and have used their training facilities. Hudson loves to be outside so we love that he has all the room to run around and go on off leash walks! Most other daycares only offer a small enclosed outdoor space, so the large yard is a huge selling point for us. Hudson runs to the door and gets so excited every time we pull up. It's obvious the handlers love dogs and care about the dogs as if they are their own. We would recommend this place to anyone who's dog loves to play outside!
