Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
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!
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
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.
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
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!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
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, $18/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!
Erica and her staff are amazing. I 100% trust her to take care of my Doberman. She will send pics daily and you can rest assured your pet is getting all the love, attention, and socialization they deserve! Thank you Erica for taking care of Indy for the past 3 years. We are both so much better for all the love you've given.❤️
Erica is amazing! She welcomed my 4 dogs (on short notice) with love and attention! The dog kennels are larger than others and well maintained. She sends daily pictures with updates. All my dogs just loved her and her staff. This is the only boarding place that i will use here on the island.
To sum up Erica's service: Exceptional! She went above and beyond all we could hope for! She lovingly watched our rabbit Lucy and cat Loki for 15 days. She sent so many pictures and spoiled them like they were her own. From day one of when I contacted her, she was always super prompt and answered my questions thoroughly. I could tell right away that she loved animals and that our fur babies would be in excellent care. Not a day went by where I didn't get at least 10 pictures of them looking well taken care of. I highly recommend her service and we will definitely be repeat customers!
Nozomi, pictured, had a wonderful time . We were given constant updates and pictures of both our Samoyed and ginger cat. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!
Great place to board your dog. We have used Erica to overnight our dog over the last 3 years. She is great with all the animals and has an intricate dog run where she can adjust the runs to the size of the dog. Her application is well thought out. It includes temperament of you dog, medical issues and verification of required shots and kennel medication. We have never had a problem there and our dog always comes home to rests from all the fun and running around with the other dogs. The dogs are paired up with like size and temperament and she closely watches them interact before introducing other dogs.
Best dog boarding that I have ever used. Such a wonderful person and team that take care of your dogs. They send picture updates to you so you can see them enjoying themselves while you are away.
Erica and her staff are the best and my dog is so happy there🐾🐶👍 …
Best place on the island to bring my dogs. I don't even consider other places now.
Erica and her team are wonderful. Kind and very caring!!
The service was great. The daily photos were a bonus.
I realize that there’s not enough reviews left for this place so I want to put in my 2 cents. I’ve left my GSD to stay at Tradewinds Pet Suites 3 times now and they’ve taken excellent care of him. I’m paranoid of taking him to any other dog boarding place because most places here let all the dogs out at once, like a dog park, and you never know what could happen. At Tradewinds they’ll spend one-on-one time with your pup and let them have as much fun as they can. My boy especially loves one-on-one time more than roaming with other dogs. I highly recommend them. They have military discounts too!
This is a great place to board your dogs (and horses I think). Our dog always is happy and healthy at the end of a trip, they have a good size run and they give the dogs some extra yard time every day.
Sandy is amazing. My dog has some pretty bad anxiety issues that he is on medication for, and I trusted that tradewinds would be able to handle him better than any other kennel. As feared, he did not like when I didn't come back to pick him up on day two. Sandy and Courtney went the extra mile to deal with him and give him special attention. I felt at ease while I was away, knowing he was in capable hands, and was proven right when I got back to pick him up! Mahalo nui loa Sandy!!
I am so last minute with my bookings all the time, and Sandy and her team CONTINUE to find ways to accommodate Koa and me. I cannot speak highly enough of their facilities, their professionals, and most importantly the amount of caring they have for animals. I cannot even count how many times I have use Tradewinds and I will always go back to them for all my boarding needs. Even if you're in Hawaii Kai, the drive is worth the doggie experience. Thank you for everything that you do and everything that you are Tradewinds. TJ
Lexie and Rothko totally enjoyed themselves. I loved seeing them almost every day on Facebook. I wouldn't be able to travel if my dogs were unhappy with their accommodations! They came home totally relaxed. Tradewinds, we will be back!
Kind staff and very professional
Excellent dog boarding. Sandy Van is AWESOME!
Wonderful home away from home for you pets.
Very Good Dog boarding!
Mahalo nui for the great review. We love Lucy!
Highly recommend having your fur babies boarded here! We’ve used their services throughout my fiancé’s medical program and they’ve gone above and beyond with Aloha to make sure our dog is safe & happy! Thank you AAB!
We just went to pick up our dogs and saw that one of them has a huge and bad looking cut on her eyelid that wasn't treated at all. We had no news about this accident and nobody knows how happened, it's a mistery. Both of our dogs came super dirty, their beds/blankets had pee and dirt all over, and their food had ants. Also, the main contact person (Lynn) wasn't answering her phone for a while. And Terry said to send them the bill after the veterinarian because they didn't take our dog to one. I just wanted a place that takes care of our dogs while we were on vacation and this is not a good one!
I brought my 3 dogs there last year. Barbara was was the best. We were on a trip for 3 week's and she sent us several pictures of the dogs playing and in there kennel. I also was able to visit the place before I boarded my dog's. Barbara and the rest of the staff were very friendly. My babies were well taken care of. I plan on Boarding them there while on future trips.
I have two Belgian Malinois and when I tried to explain to the staff that this breed is different, they were already very knowledgeable on the bread. The staff was extremely Friendly and kind. They will go out of their way to make your furry friends comfortable. Very affordable and flexible. I called last minute and was able to drop my fogs of the same day. The knowledgeable staff made me feel so comfortable leaving my mals there for a week.
My wife and I went on a trip to the mainland for a week. We arranged for pick up and delivery of our dogs. Both pick up and delivery were on time, and the dogs were in great health. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We have two rescues, and like most they have some issues. The staff handled them very well. We are pleased with the care provided. It is nice to find a place that welcomes bully breeds and knows how to handle them. I would recommend them to anyone.
The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. It is certainly not a luxury pet facility, nor does it come with luxury boarding prices. but it offers the essentials, a caring staff, a room with air conditioned kennels, roaming/play time,pick up and delivery were handled in an efficient and timely manner. We have two bully breed rescues and like most have issues. The staff knew how to handle those issues without a hitch and returned the dogs to us in great condition.
My family has gone to them for every time we've needed someone to watch my dog, and they care for him as much as we do. However, this last experience really solidified how I feel. They made sure he was ready for our big move with another company's help, made sure he had enough food for the month he was there, and kept me up to date on how he was doing. With him in their care, I didn't feel the need to worry- I knew he was taken care of. Thank you all for being there every time for us, we appreciate it tremendously!
I worked with terry and lyn to pick up my two dogs from the airport before we arrived in Hawaii. They picked them up, sent us pictures that they were healthy and happy after their flight, stayed in constant communication with us, and delivered them to our hotel when we arrived five or so days later. I can’t express what a relief it was that they took such good care of my dogs. I was really worried about sending them over without us but it was great! Would recommend to any military family sending pets over unaccompanied!! Edited a year later to add I used terry and lyn to care for my pets for a 3 month duration when I needed to leave hawaii. They were beyond helpful, I am so thankful for them taking care of me and my pets.
Our dog fractured her leg in two places while boarding here for a week. She couldn't even stand when we picked her up at the end of the stay and had to bring her straight to the pet hospital. The owners offered to pay for our dog's hospital bills but when we sent them the bill, they never followed through.
If you want your pets to be in happy healthy hands while on vacation DO NOT board your pets here, the amount of money “saved” is far from worth it. We were recently going to be boarding our two dogs while on vacation for Christmas and New Years, upon arrival an elderly man/staff named Terry whom would be taking care of my two pups let us in and I was immediately taken aback when one of my dogs started barking in a very scared manner which was very unlike him..so immediately I was uneasy, the small shed like where they housed small dogs is were we were first taken and there were HUNDREDS of flies due to turf instead of grass where pups supposedly “play” but also potty. Immediately I wanted to see where my pups would be sleeping and when asked if that could be shown to us Terry quickly responded “NO!” No??? I have never not been able to see where my pets would be staying while boarding, his excuse was “They will be in the back near quarantine” I was puzzled by the term “quarantine” and when asked about it Terry stated, “That’s where the dogs are with broken legs, blind etc.” Why would you have dogs with broken limbs here???!! You are not a hospital or a clinic. What really got me was when Terry finally showed me the type of kennel they would be staying in located in the front facility in the small shed-like building. There were at least 15-20 dogs jam packed in there one of which I knew personally from a boarding facility I worked for on island..his demeanor was so off you could tell he was very stressed by the shaking and constant panting he was doing along with multiple other dogs looking and acting in the same manner. There was no space between the kennels and some of them didn’t even have enclosed tops so you couldn’t actually properly separate mediate any possible cage fighting, this was all truly made me feel like I was in a scary movie. We immediately ran for the hills. Luckily we had a back up plan because if not I’m not sure how my dogs would have been when we returned home from vacation.
