"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
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!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
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!
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.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
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.
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!
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, 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!
HIGHLY Recommend!!!!! Meg is amazing!!! I have two cats with very different needs & personalities ,one can’t get enough attention and the other very shy, Meg recently provided in-home cat care, ( for the 2nd time ) provided individual needs & love for my cats…. She is extremely dependable, …she respected my home and the details of care that we discussed ahead of time (during our meet and greet ) were met beyond my hopes , she is very loving, sent pictures /videos daily while I was away on an 18 day vacation !!!! Looking forward to her next visit, my kitties & I love her! Thank You Meg :)
Meg is AMAZING! We have an adopted senior pup who struggles with some anxiety and socialization issues, but Meg has made his walks and vacation care a breeze! She’s awesome with our pup and so patient with him (probably more patient than I am with him 😊). I trust her 10000% to take the best care of Tiger. I know he’s always in good hands! Highly recommend! She even sends me adorable pictures while he’s out for his afternoon walk.
Meg has assisted us several times with our Pug pups Sammy and Sassy. We first met her last year and we tried her for a short weekend, and she did an amazing job keeping an eye on them at our house. She has helped us out recently for a long vacation. She came by the house three time a day to feed and care for our dogs. We highly recommend her services. Thanks Meg!
Meg is an absolute life saver. I first reached out to her to inquire if she'd watch my puppy for daycare. After making sure her temperment was in order Meg accepted our pup. Our Hazel is an absolute sweetheart but like any dog, needs strong socialization to know what's acceptable behavior and what's not. It was night and day when we brought her back home. She not only was exhausted from a long day of having fun, but her puppy biting stopped dramatically. Thank you so much Meg. If you have any doubts, just do what I did and give her a call. You will not be disappointed!
I met Meg when I needed help socializing my dog Stihl. We rescued him 3 years ago when i was a stay at home mom during the pandemic. I recently went back to work and felt he needed a companion; however stihl had never really been around others dogs before. She was so patient working with me, Stihl and the new potential dog taking repeated walks to slowly acclimate them to eachother. I can happily say I now have 2 beautiful huskies who absolutely love eachothers company thanks to her hard work and dedication to creating a safe and happy pack within our home. I am fortunate to have found her and her expertise!! 💕
I have been sending all three of my dogs to Meg for over a year, and they love it! Meg has such great experience and provides a safe, loving experience for all the dogs. I use her for day and vacation care. I completely trust her with my fur babies. She’s awesome - highly recommend!!!
Meg is simply the best! We board our dog at Second Chance Pet Sitting every time we travel out of town. He is always well taken care of while there and he looks forward to going back each and every time. She sends videos, pictures and provides us updates so we know how he's doing while in her care. We never have to worry about him and we know he's in good hands with Meg. She genuinely cares about all the animals in her care and we trust her completely. She is a gem and we feel very blessed to have found her.
We have been using Meg's services for this past year, and words can not describe how much of a life saver she has been for my husband and me. We feel fully trustful leaving our girl in the care of Meg because we know she will be well taken care of and get a chance to interact and release her energy with the many other dogs at Second Chance Pet Sitting. Meg is incredibly accommodating, and this makes everything so much easier. Most importantly, our dog was quite young and had some behavioral issues when we first started using Meg's services, but Meg has gone above and beyond to help correct her behavior and now our dog is behaving so much better thanks to Meg's help! Elena, Andrew and our dog Kira
Our dog Blue just loves Meg at Second Chance Pet sitting! Meg has been watching Blue since she was a puppy and has had such a wonderful impact. We feel so comfortable leaving our dogs in Meg’s hands knowing how knowledgeable she is and having watched her loving interactions with the animals. My husband and I can’t recommend her more!
We first met Meg when we were looking for a mid-day walk for our puppy during long work days. In the year since, Percy has had many dog play dates, stayed with Meg during our vacations, and participated in doggie day care during the week. Meg is attentive, kind, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and always gives updates on how our dog is doing while we are away. We always know that our girl is in the best hands when we leave. Our dog begs to go to Meg's house and cries when it's time to leave. For over a year Meg has made our dog, Percy, feel like family and we are so grateful we found her! I 100% recommend Second Chance Pet Sitting to anyone looking for care for their pet.
My dog had so much fun! The staff is super friendly and we enjoyed having a tired out dog for the rest of the day. I loved seeing her play on the live cameras. I was afraid she wouldn't be accepted since she is a big dog with a lot of energy but the staff was very knowledgeable and didn't have any issues with her. Definitely recommend!
Responsible staff who care and interact with your pup! We love the extra activities too! And we love the new addition with Rachel!! If you have a doodle she’s a MUST, and overall grooming she’s AMAZING! It’s so wonderful to know we have a kind and patient groomer we can trust. Especially with a Sheepadoodle with challenging hair. GO SEE RACHEL! And a pit stop at daycare is so enriching for your pup!! Cannot recommend Camp Bow Wow enough!
From grooming to boarding, they’ve nailed it! Kind and caring folks watch over your precious pup every day. Rachael is an AMAZING groomer! Knows her stuff, sweet demeanor, my dogs favorite person!!
Our dog loves coming to camp! Everyone is so friendly and attentive to the dogs. I'd highly recommend Camp Bow Wow to anyone who is looking for daycare and boarding.
Camp Bow Wow is an absolutely amazing place! It's incredibly tidy and the staff there is exceptionally friendly and genuine. They genuinely care about the dogs that enter their doors! The live camera feature is definitely a wonderful addition as well. It allows you to easily keep an eye on how your furry friend is doing! Moreover, the dog groomer is extremely skilled and always prioritizes the well-being of the dogs. She's also very understanding and attentive to your specific requirements. I highly recommend everyone to visit this place!
We love having Camp Bow Wow so close to our home. There are lovely people that work with the pups, and the prices are very affordable. Highly recommend!
Leo loves going to camp, when he gets home he's exhausted from playing all day. Stephanie and the rest of the staff are great with Leo and are very friendly. We highly recommend Camp Bow Wiw
Couldn't say enough on how much we love Camp Bow Wow! They love our dog like their own and they are so nice every time! Super happy with this service!
We were so excited when this facility opened so close to our home. We are new to owning a puppy as we have always had young adult dogs or seniors. The staff have been so welcoming, informative, and consistent when it comes to the love and care they show our girl, Helena (Helly). She’s a puppy and is full of energy! They welcome her with open arms every day she goes to play and we look forward to watching her grow with Camp Bow Wow! I highly recommend this facility!
Took my pup for her first grooming appointment. She came out looking amazing and everybody was super friendly. Will definitely be going back!
Angela is absolutely terrific and we are blessed to have found her for our senior golden. We agree that she is responsive and highly reliable. From the first meet and greet, Angela demonstrated a level of professionalism, knowledge and understanding that left no doubt she was the right fit to stay in our home. She took exceptional care of, not only our dog, but our home as well. We received regular updates while we were gone, and we enjoyed peace of mind knowing that our aging pooch was in good hands - truly custom care. We will recommend Angela as often as we can and hope that her business continues to succeed.
Angela is absolutely amazing... She recently did a 7 night pet sitting job in our home to watch over our 2 dogs while we were out of town. Angela was absolutely respectful of our home and provided us with pictures and updates during the week. She stayed over a few extra hours on the last day as we were returning later than expected... and she even came back after we arrived to tell us everything that happened with our buddies during the week. She is caring, trustworthy, and reliable... our dogs absolutely love her and we are so fortunate to have her to love on our dogs when we have to go out of town. 5 stars all the way!!!!
Angela is Awesome. She is responsive and reliable. We lived in the area for 3 years and our only regret was not finding her sooner! She watched our animals for both long and short trips while we were out of town. Angela consistently provided us with check ins and photos. Both our cat and dog were extremely happy and in good hands. We recently moved. Diamond in the Ruff will be one of the businesses we miss most!
I have been working with Pet/House sitters for over 28 years. It is rare that you find someone who takes as good a care of your pets as they do your house. My six pets eat at different times in different locations all day long. Angela was not only able to adapt to this complicated schedule, but did it with a positive attitude. I have a nine-year-old GSD and two little Bostons on two the other four-months-old. I don’t like creating the puppy for long periods of time. In addition to spending the night with the pets on two separate occasions, Angela came for babysitting mornings. After her first stay, Angela, gave me some very useful tips on housebreaking the little one. Her input and help on this has been very valuable. Angela sent updates, photographs and asked questions when necessary. I’ve also worked with Angela as a trainer with very positive outcomes. Her prices are reasonable. I’m very happy to have Diamond in the Ruff Pet Care as a go to resource for supporting my pets.
Angela was able to fit us into her schedule for a few overnights for a last minute trip. She was great with our three dogs when she came over to meet them. She came over to play with them several times a day and was very reasonable priced! She provided updates and pictures while we were away. We will definitely be using Diamond in the Ruff again!
The pet sitter we had been using went back to college and we needed to find someone at the last minute. We have 3 small dogs who do not accept strangers very well so we were a bit worried. They took to Angela almost right away. We highly recommend her, she is professional, reliable, absolutely trustworthy, and obviously a dog lover. Everything was perfect, allowing us to enjoy our vacation without concern. She sent pictures of our dogs daily with nice notes on their status.
Angela treats my puppy as if he were the only Lab on this earth! I travel & Angela stays and when I return the home is in better condition then when I left. Angela calls when she’s in the area to see if she can stop by and play with my puppy. Never experienced someone as devoted as this young professional!!!
MS. ANGELA is very flexible and available at all times and day. Very responsive and willing to accomodate to our needs. Not only did she help with socializing her and such but our dog, Azuka gets really happy to have Angela play and walk. She is very knowledgeable about dog training and gives reliable suggestions. We got her booked for weekly walks, worth it.
One of my cats has diabetes that requires 2 shots a day. Knowing she was in good hands made me feel better. Also my little one who doesn’t come out for anyone, showed her face on the first visit. Highly recommend Angela and her services.
I'm thrilled that Diamond In The Ruff is available to provide in home dog care. Angela is professional and knowledgeable, and my dogs adore her!
Arelys is amazing! She has been boarding my dog Otis for 2 years now. He was very shy when he first met her and she took the time to get to know him and make him extra comfortable. Now he loves getting to spend time with her and her pup. Arelys is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, caring, and responsible. I love that she always sends me pictures and updates of my dog during his visits and it feels good to know that he is happy and having fun. I totally recommend Drooling Pups!
My dog has been so happy and by extension, so has our family. Arelys is flexible, kind, and so knowledgeable about animals, even the super anxious ones. You can tell she really loves dogs and she will take such great care of yours too!
Arelys is the person to trust with my doggo. Drooling pups has been amazing and reliable. Thank you for all you do and the dedication to our pets.
Arelys is the best. We've trusted her with our dogs for years and they have a great time every time. They come back happy and relaxed, and she sends lots of great pictures of them playing with their little friends. I strongly recommend sending your dog over.
Arelys is the best! We don’t board our dog often, but when we do, we go to Drooling Pups. She keeps them active and the only thing you need to provide is dog food. She has everything…love it!
There's truly no place like home, and that's exactly what your dog will experience under Arelys' care. She treats each pup like family, showering them with love and attention. Her beautiful home, complete with a large fenced-in yard, offers ample space for furry friends to roam and play or simply relax indoors. Arelys' flexible schedule accommodates busy lifestyles, and she's always willing to provide overnight stays. Her own sweet dog, ILSA, is a wonderful companion for visiting canines. Whether you're nearby or far away, Drooling Pups is the perfect choice for a home away from home. I wholeheartedly recommend Arelys' services and encourage anyone seeking reliable and loving care for their beloved pet to reach out. Thank you, Arelys, for taking such great care of my boy, Felix
Drooling pups is the best. We trusted Arelys with our three-year old Pomsky Lily, when we were out of town. Before our trip, we met Arelys and her dog Ilsa to see if we were a match before she agreed to watch Lily. She was very professional and knowledgable as she shared her background and answered all of our questions. While we were on our trip, Arelys sent us updates with pictures and some videos, which really put us at ease as we saw how happy and comfortable Lily was at Drooling pups. We were happy with entire experience, and will be using them again.
We cannot recommend Arelys enough. She takes care of the dogs with so much love and affection. ILSA is the best sidekick too. Our pup never looks back when it’s time to hang with Arelys. It truly feels like leaving him with his other family. She continues to be the only dogsitter we use even though we are an hour away. We’re so grateful we found her.
