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.

It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
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!
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
We knew that we would have a good experience with Carole & Ron from the moment we first had a video chat with them. They are very experienced house sitters and it showed in the questions they asked about our cats and our home. We were so fascinated by them that we invited them to arrive a day early so that we could all go out for lunch and then dinner to hear about their travel stories and share a few of our own. When we left, we felt very confident in our choice and took off on our trip with confidence that our dear kitties would be well cared for. We were not disappointed as Carole & Ron sent us photos and an update the very next day to let us know that all was well. During the next two weeks, we never had a moment of concern and fully enjoyed our vacation knowing that these seasoned sitters were both looking after our place and also enjoying themselves exploring our wonderful city of Philadelphia. We came home to two very happy cats, a clean house, and even a full bowl of fresh fruit on our kitchen counter. We would absolutely have Carole & Ron sit for us again and we wish them the very best of fun and exploration in their future adventures!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
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!
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!
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, $20/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 met Tim back around 2002. After using 2 other pet sitting services that lied & put our pets at serious risk...They said they were at our place ,but they both lied. That's when I did a extensive search for a new pet sitter. We found Summit Pet Sitting , we met with Tim & looked over his all his referrals & found them to be terrific ... One of my cats was Diabetic & Tim is totally trained in giving injections. Both our cats were loving cats .Merlin was a dog in a cats body. Sheba was a bit more of a one person cat, but in time Tim was able to gain her trust. If we asked Tim to call or other certain requests he was awesome. He is loyal, trustworthy & caring person. I can not endorse Tim & Summit Pet Sitting enough.
Tim has been caring for our dogs and fish in our home for the past 7 years. We are now moving out of state and literally the worst part about leaving is that we will no longer have Tim around to take care of our animals (we tried to convince him to go with us but he politely declined). We found Tim 7 years ago after a bad experience with a previous pet sitter. Before we found Tim, we had been ready to cancel a trip because we were no longer comfortable leaving our dogs with the pet sitter we had been using. We found Tim, called his (glowing) references, had him over to meet our animals, and we hired him at the last minute. Since then, he has probably stayed at our house at least 25 times over the years. We have had our dogs stay at his house several times as well. Tim is very flexible and accommodating. Our dogs love him. He probably takes better care of them than we do. We never worry at all anymore when we have to travel because we know they are in very good hands. We would 1000% recommend him to anyone who is looking for the absolute best care for their fur-kids!
Tim has stayed with our 2 dogs and 2 cats twice while we went on vacation. It is much less stressful on the pets to have someone stay with them in their regular environment rather than boarding. Tim takes great care of them, and sends daily updates and pictures! The dogs are always happy and tired from lots of play time when we get home. I highly recommend Summit Pet Sitting!
Tim has been our dog-sitter for the past few years and he has consistently provided us with reliable service. Most recently, Tim watched our dogs during our honeymoon. He noticed one of our dogs had a foot infection and took her to the vet after consulting us. We are grateful his attentiveness to our dogs' well-being led to a speedy recovery. He writes daily reports on our dogs' activities and also takes care of your mail/plants/others as needed. In addition, our dogs love seeing Tim whenever he walks into the apartment -- this gives us a tremendous peace of mind when we have to leave them home. We highly recommend Tim for pet-sitting services.
Timothy Smith is the owner of Summit Pet Sitting. He has been walking our Lhasa Apso "Lexi " three mornings a week for nearly three years. During that stretch he has never missed an appointment. On the rare occasion he can't make it he finds a substitute walker so our service is uninterrupted. You cannot find reliability like that anywhere! Besides his dependability, Timothy is very trustworthy. He has had a key to our home for the duration of the relationship. He can be counted on to let himself into the house, leash & walk our dog, responsibly dispose of the poop, fill the food & water dishes, and lock the door on the way out. In the beginning Tim made sure the dog was comfortable with him. It didn't take long for Lexi to warm up to him and now she looks forward to seeing him! Timothy also will administer medications to Lexi whenever necessary such as the time she had an ear infection and needed ointment applied. He also reports anything unusual like the time Lexi had a urinary tract infection. He noticed blood in her urine and texted a picture to me right away so we could bring her to the vet ASAP. We also board our dog with Tim whenever we travel. He will bring Lexi to his house and care for her like she is his own pet. In addition to his top notch service, Timothy is very reasonably priced. He provides excellent value but most importantly he puts our minds at ease knowing Lexi is in safe hands. He also seamlessly handled a few instances where we had a second dog at our house and treated that dog exactly the same as Lexi at no additional cost. I highly recommend Summit Pet Sitting for all your pet needs!
Tim is awesome. We have 3 hounds, Cora, Mojo and Bennie. They loved being cared by him. He sends pictures and truly cares about his guests. We have used him twice and were extremely satisfied. When we mention his name the tails begin to wag profusely. My wife and I get jealous. Highly recommend this company. Safe, reliable, dependable and affordable pet care.
Summit Pet Sitting is the best. Tim gets my dog. She is an older dog and can get stubborn and cranky. Tim still gets her to walk and play and makes sure she is cared for and safe. He also gives her her medications and never charges extra fees like the kennels do. I could not recommend him more highly. I can go on vacation with total peace of mind.
Tim has always been great with our dogs, and you can tell from the very first encounter that he is an animal person through and through. We always know that boarding with him is their home away from home, and can’t recommend his services enough!
Dealing with Tim is fantastic! Tim took care of our lab "Sarge" for a few days while we were on vacation and we didn't worry once about his care. We would receive daily updates and picture/videos of him hanging out and during playtime. It was a great experience dealing with Summit Pet Sitting.
We have a 3 year old Boxer mix named Koda who is a rescue. She is incredibly wary and fearful of strangers and loudly announces her feelings. We are trying to work on this with her but we still have a ways to go! We recently got married and on that weekend, lost our trusted dog sitter as they were also at the wedding. We got a recommendation from a good friend of ours who is also a local town’s Animal Control Officer. We highly value her opinion as she is working with dogs like Koda daily and if she vouches for someone, it’s for a reason. We spoke with Tim and right away knew that we liked him, but he wanted to be sure that KODA would like HIM. We set up a meeting and Tim came over for an hour to introduce himself to Koda and see how things went. She was initially wary, as she always is, but Tim’s warm nature and experience with difficult dogs showed immediately as Koda very quickly warmed up to him. His knowledge of dog behavior and confidence with reactive dogs made the whole meeting process go smoothly and we were ready to proceed. Tim was willing to watch Koda in his home as we felt like that would be the best option for her. He set up another meeting with us to make sure that that Koda would be receptive to staying at his house and would get along with his dog Rose. Upon arrival at his house, Koda immediately recognized him and leapt in his lap, licking his face! The weekend he watched her went off without a hitch and Tim sent update messages and pictures to keep our mind at ease. All in all, we HIGHLY recommend Tim to anyone needing a dog sitter, be it for a super friendly dog or for one with special requirements like ours. We are incredibly thankful to have found Tim and are thrilled to have found our new dog sitter for the future!
My dogs have been cared for by We Love Dog Walking from the beginning when I lived in Natick, and I could always depend on them. Snow, cold, or rain would not stop them from walking the boys. Now that I have moved to CT, I still have them stay overnight with Wee Love Dog Walking. If my dogs could give out stars, they would give out five stars too!
Nicole loves all animals . She gives them attention and lots of LOVE. You know after speaking with her for a few minutes you pet will be cared for . <3
Nicole is professional, reliable, and excellent when it comes to taking care of your pets. I have utilized Nicole's services each time I go away for business or pleasure. Nicole sends me pictures and videos as she visits with my cats, and she makes sure they are fed. She also plays with them and brushes them, making sure they get plenty of attention while I am away! Nicole is extremely responsive and always available whenever I need her. Thank you Nicole for all that you do for me, Batman, and Flufanutter!!!
Nicole is the most loving dog walker and owner I have ever met. There are a few people in the world that I would entrust my animals to and Wee Love Dog Walking will always be my go-to people for my babies. Thank you Nicole and staff for all the extra attention and love you provide the animal that you look after. Thank you, thank you thank you. Donna F. - Woonsocket, RI
The owner, Nicole, absolutely LOVES what she does. She has cared for our pets every time we've gone away for either a vacation or a couple of days. The dogs run to her when they see her and she treats them like they are children with such care and love. I wouldn't trust anyone else! She always responds quickly to messages also. Everyone we have referred to her has nothing but wonderful things to say about their experience. Give her a call!
Nicole at Wee Love Dog Walking is fantastic. She is trustworthy and has a genuine love for animals. I highly recommend her!
Most caring, animal lover I know! She will treat you and your animals with the most respect humanly possible! She also runs an extremely reliable and trustworthy business! Keep up the amazing work!
Nicole is such an animal lover so she makes the best dog walker :)
Owner Nicole is hard-working, accommodating, and will love your dog like it's her own!!
Nicole is the best! Very caring, experienced and professional.
I have always had very good service from Cozy for years now. I have used their boarding services multiple times. They have individual runs for the dogs and I have been able to board two of my dogs together. I also have used their grooming services many times! I had a Bichon and now a Westie that needed to be groomed quite frequently. I feel their service charges are reasonable. I had originally been referred by a friend and I'm very happy I took her advice!
Teddy and we love this place. True, it is small and may not have all the bells and whistles as some other places, but we know Teddy is well taken care of, and the place is immaculate. He starts jumping around the car and waging his tail as soon as we get to dunkin.we recently went to a different kennel, and when we picked up Teddy, he literally gave us the cold shoulder for days. Not here happy going and happy being picked up Just like a kid at camp.
Best boarding place! I have a nervous Nelly who isn’t good with other dogs and the staff makes special accommodations so he’s comfortable while he’s there. Their grooming services are fantastic too!
Hands down the best kennel I've come across!!! My dog stayed for 11 days and it was worth every penny!!! Friendly and very communicable staff!!! The property is gorgeous and very convenient!!! Not once did they make me not feel comfortable leaving my fur baby in their care and not once did they judge his breed!!! Hands down the one and only kennel I'll ever use again!!!
I called to request an appointment, left a voicemail and received a return call that same day. I called on a Wednesday to get an appointment that week and they had Saturday morning available, super convenient because I work during the week. My dog has extreme anxiety and Jean (the groomer) was very attentive to my dog was comforting. The grooming only took about an hour and half and when I picked up dog not only did, she look great and feel super soft, she seemed comfortable. (2 days later and she still is super soft) This was sooo reassuring because when I dropped her off she was panicking. High recommend and will most definitely be back!
Staff is very kind. This is a great place is you are looking to have you dog stay by itself in their own kennel.
Just picked my golden retriever from a grooming at Cozy Quarters and he has never had such a beautiful grooming. I'm sure he was a handful. 😇 We also use them for boarding our 2 dogs and they always come home clean and happy. I highly recommend Cozy Quarters. …
They took very good care of our dog excellent place to go to very caring people did an excellent job and they still do an excellent job and Sammy does an excellent job
My furbaby is Maxx (Shih-poo) he is 8 years old. I've only had him for less than a year. I had him groomed at a groomer but when it was time for his second haircut, the groomer would not return my calls. I then called Cozy Quarters. I believe it was Jessica that took him and groomed him. . When she called to let me know he was done, I asked if he gave her a hard time. She said he is a tough groom. Now I know why the first groomer he had wouldn't call me back. I wish she had called to explain. I would have understood. I asked Jessica at Cozy Quarters if he will be welcome back and she said , yes of course. I'm so glad we found her. The prices are really affordable. I'm so grateful for Cozy Quarters...🌹🐾🌹
Immaculately clean! Super friendly, helpful employees. I was nervous about boarding my 8 month old puppy but after spending a little time here I was definitely more comfortable. I knew my dog would be well cared for. On the second day of his stay I actually got a video of my pup and a text letting me know that he was fine. Would highly recommend Cozy Quarters.
Always takes great care of my dog ! Been going since 2020 and was recommended by a veterinarian;)
Very friendly staff and my cat absolutely loves going there
We always board our dogs here when we are unable to take them with us. And bring them for day care on occasion. They are always well cared for and never afraid to return. You can tell how your pet acts whether they enjoy being there or not and our dogs over the years have never been hesitant. Wonderful grooming service also.
I'm glad we found this kennel. Friendly staff. Our dog is always happy to stay there. She never comes home sick like other kennels. I would recommend this kennel.
Highly recommended. I've been going since they opened, the owner and staff love animals and will treat them as their own. We moved away and I still drive 45 minutes away, because yes, they are that great! Dogs & Cats, same great treatment.
This was my first time boarding Major at Colonial Kennel. I found the staff to be very engaging and helpful during my initial visit to schedule some boarding dates. Upon my arriving, Major was a bit hesitant entering the building. I believe this was due to the mild oder of urine. Not overly offensive in any way, but he is intelligent enough to realize that he was entering an unknown facility where other animals were present. The staff were very patient as I took him back outside to calm him and try again to bring him inside, this took about 5 or 6 attempts. When he entered, his was meet with kind smiles and voices to assist in relaxing him. It didn't take long to sign him in and even less time for him to feel comfortable enough to head back to the kennels without me. Major was there for three days and when I picked him up he was just as clean as when I dropped him off, it was clear he had been well cared for. The staff gave me a very detailed report of his stay and the owner was very interested in Major. We talked for awhile and I took Major home. I very much look forward to using Colonial Kennel again and see them becoming part of our family.
I have been using Colonial Kennel for over 10 years and they are wonderful! I started with obedience classes and now need them for boarding. Johanna is very caring and calm, great for dogs! The kennel is clean and my dogs come home happy and clean. Looking forward to my new puppy going to school there. Keep up the great care you provide!🐾
We had an unplanned trip and tried finding a kennel to leave our dog with no luck. Colonial Kennel took our girl in and she stayed there 8 nights. She was well taken care of, very upbeat and happy when we picked her up. She also got a nice grooming. We recommend Colonial Kennel highly.
Picked my dogs up after the fourth of July weekend. Was told both had been fine all weekend. I tried to call 3 times to see how they were. There was no answer everytime. Both dogs came home dehydrated and ran right for the water bowl as soon as we got in the house. Their skin was slow to retract from dehydration. Also, one of my dogs I provided a slow feeder for and they wrote her name on the side of it in permanent marker which is my opinion it could of been written on the bottom( it's already there) as it is a household item. My larger dog also came home with her collar so tight I couldn't even get 1 finger behind it. I'm not satisfied at all and they won't ever be returning.
I house my dogs here when I go on extended vacations and I feel fully comfortable with them there when I'm away. When I return to pick them up they always seem so happy and actually a little reluctant to leave! The staff is very friendly and treat the animals with care.
