Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Amanda is truly our trusted sitter "find"! She comes back regularly, so much so that our kitties think she is their secondary owner! Always reliable, clean, responsible and most of all loves our cats as much as we do! Good communicator, self reliant - all in all a perfect "10"!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
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!
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.

Jane has done drop-in visits for my two cats when I’m away for about a year now and I cannot say enough good things about her. She has gone above and beyond at every visit from learning how to administer eye drops to my cat to bringing in delivered packages from the front door. She is so caring and her love for animals shows at every visit. One of my cats has high anxiety and doesn’t like most people. Jane has learned to care for him while acknowledging his anxiety and sensitive personality. I’ve never felt so free to travel without worry of my pets at home. I highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for care for their animals when they are away!
Jane always takes such good care of our animals, making sure our dog has everything he needs on his walks and giving our cats lots of love. Very professional and caring!
We had the pleasure of having Jane from Preferred Pet Sitting take care of our beloved birds for a week, and I cannot praise her enough for the outstanding care she provided. From our first interaction, Jane was not only professional but also genuinely caring towards our pets. She took the time to understand their routines, preferences, and needs to ensure they were comfortable and well-cared for in our absence. Jane’s attention to detail was impeccable; she kept us updated with daily texts and photos, which brought us great peace of mind. It was evident from these updates that she went above and beyond in her duties, engaging our birds and ensuring their environment was clean and enriching. We wholeheartedly recommend Jane to any pet owner looking for a reliable, compassionate, and skilled pet sitter.
You will not find a better sitter than Jane! She is reliable, professional, and most important, good with the animals. I appreciate that she reports out the visit and includes pictures of their time together. My chihuahua warmed up to her immediately and loves his cuddle time on the couch with her. She makes us feel like our animals are the only ones in the world; she treats them like family. We consider HER family. Simply the best in town!!
Jane at Preferred Pet Sitting is a top tier pet sitter. No matter what type of pet I've added to my menagerie, I know she'll take care to understand and meet their needs. She sends thoughtful updates which helps me (an anxious pet "mom") feel secure knowing that my little guys are in good hands. 😊 I would recommend Preferred Pet Sitting to anyone looking for really loving and responsible care for their pets.
Jane has done drop in visits for my cat on several of my vacations. She takes great care of my feisty cat, who looks forward to her visits. I also love having someone check on my house daily. I highly recommend this service.
Jane is such an excellent cat sitter. It’s hard to find people that are so good with cats specifically. Our cat is clearly in a good mood after we get home.
My pup went to Camp Good Puppy for daycare and boarding for over a year before we moved. I so appreciated the care they showed my pup who was nervous and shy at first. With their help she gained confidence and began to love going there for daycare every week. I always felt comfortable leaving her there for daycare or boarding. My pup will miss you all!
My Rottweiler “goes to camp” weekly and boards here when I need to go somewhere without him. As a rescue who was poorly socialized as a puppy, he was very nervous at first, and suffered with separation anxiety. The staff have won him over, and we’ve worked with Cierra in group training classes to improve his manners and confidence. Now he loves his weekly visits and doesn’t even look back at me as he runs off to play with his friends when I drop him off. Plus, his vet says he’s the best behaved Rottweiler at their practice. They get busy and booked up during the summer and over holidays, so make sure to book early during those times of year.
My pups LOVE coming to camp. They take great care of my babies and are always receptive to my communication.
My dog loves going here on a weekly basis! As soon as we turn into the camp he's already wagging his tail. The staff is friendly and helpful. The safety of the dogs is a high priority to them and I can tell they try their best to observe the dogs and provide the best experience. As a plus, I love the report cards that they provide periodically.
I had an emergency come up and needed day care. Everyone at the facility has gone out of their way to help. They have done everything needed to make sure I do not need to worry about my new work schedule that changed without warning. They went out of their way all the way through the easy process to get my fur babies the attention needed so I can work without worry of them being home alone. Thank you so much!!!! Can not say enough
We have been taking our 8 month old puppy to Camp Good Puppy since he was 4 months old and have had nothing but wonderful experiences! We’ve utilized the daycare services weekly and have done a few boarding stays. Our pup gets so excited to go to camp and runs to the workers, just as fast as he runs to us 😂 We love reading the report cards they provide and can tell everyone truly cares for our dog! He gets to go to camp and run around in fields and just be a dog. So thankful Camp Good Puppy is nearby!
Camp good puppy is such a great place! I took my dog Pepper there for the first time (pepper is really shy and kinda scared of other dogs) anyways pepper spent 10 days there and she made friends! She also isn't as shy anymore! This is such a wonderful place to take ur dog the workers are so sweet and responsible, I can really trust them with pepper! Thank u so much for taking care of my doggy♡
I toured their property with owner. She gave a great overview of their program and how it has been in her family since they opened. The faculty was well set up and open plan Good flow for incoming and out going pets. When viewing the kennel area it was clean and bright and organized. This camp is a balance of play and rest. Not a good fit for smaller dogs unless they interact well with other breeds and sizes. Good positive visit and tour. A nice fit for weekly day care and for a fee days boarding.
Our dog, Huey (ACD/Russell/Pitty), came to CGP with a lot of reactivity issues, especially on a leash. We attended their Basic Manners and Reactivity classes, and Huey had improved leaps and bounds from where he was. I have so much more confidence as a dog owner.Cierra is incredibly patient and invested in her training, which shows, considering how attentive and knowledgeable she was with our dog. This is a great place to bring your dog for amazing training by and resources. Highly recommended.
I love this place and my dog does too! It’s in the country they get to smell the air and be socialized with other dogs, while being who they are individually. I feel like my dog gets the attention she needs while staying safe. And I love the stuff they are receptive and caring and reliable. Thanks so much for being there camper good puppy!
My girl started off a timid rescue. Wet Noses has been amazing! They have really helped her to find her confidence with other dogs and people. They are great at communicating, sending emails when vaccines are due, info on the dog exhibiting sickness or other issues. My dogs looks forward to her days at Wet Noses, whining with excitement when we pull into the parking lot. I recommend them to everyone!
Wet Noses and Wagging Tails is awesome! I take my two dogs there every week and they always come back happy and tired. Staff is very friendly and flexible with drop off times. I love that they take photos of the dogs during the day too. I would recommend them for any dog owner! Thanks for taking care of these crazy dogs, Wet Noses and Wagging Tails!
We have been using wet Noses for multiple years, for both weekly daycare and boarding. The staff is amazing and truly care about your dogs. Both dogs are excited eveytime we pull up and exhausted when we pick them up. We have and will continue to recommend. They are AMAZING!!!!
This was Buddy’s first time going to doggy daycare so we were kinda nervous about how it might go. Buddy is a very high energy Aussie so we were concerned that he might be too much. Our concerns were for naught. Employees at Wet Noses & Wagging Tails are well experienced with high energy dogs and were actually excited to meet Buddy. Buddy had a great time and the best part was, he was totally exhausted! 😆
Our dog Cooper absolutely loves WNWT. He gets so excited he starts barking as soon as we turn onto the road leading to it. It is reassuring when your pet is so excited about being left at doggy daycare. He’s never responded that way to anywhere else we’ve ever taken him. He comes home tired and happy every time! Thank you WNWT staff for loving him and taking such good care of him!
We just started taking Sadie to daycare and boarding and she loves it. She is so excited to go for either the day or a sleepover. The staff is absolutely wonderful with dogs. I mean look at the grin Sadie has, that says it all. She’s one happy dog!
This review is long overdue. My spoiled princess has been going to Wet Noses for some time now and I sometimes think she may love them more than she loves me. Their love for everyone's babies is hard to miss, they treat each and every pet as of it was their very own. I'm so thankful to have found them to help me in caring for my Mina🌹! 🐾
Our dog, Maddie, has been attending doggie day care since she was a pup. We love the time she spends at WNWT knowing she is loved and is safe interacting with her buddies and the friendly staff.
The best thing that could have happened to us and for our pup Regal is finding Wet Noses & Wagging Tails! From day 1, the staff has been just awesome! Her 1st day of school at just 4 months old all the staff really took care to nurture her timid personality. Regal completely feels at home there now and all the staffers have been so kind watching her grow up. W just LOVE that she can stay in doors with her friends when wet and cold out or outside on nice dry days. It has helped her so much in learning to socialize and more importantly to get her very much needed exercise fix. She just loves it, can't wait to rush in to her pals and when the day is done strolls out nice and tuckered out from a long day's play. Thank you so much WN & WT!!
We were so nervous taking our (also nervous) dog to daycare and boarding for the first time. Our fears were quickly averted - they are helpful, friendly, and above all they love the dogs! I appreciated the extensive vet checklist and the fact that every dog goes through a temperament test before being admitted into the facility. It makes me feel like my dog is safe around all the other dogs. Love the photos and updates, couldn't be happier with the service.
Susie's is absolutely amazing! Our Kono loves it there! Everyone there is so sweet and take such wonderful care of our little princess. Drop off and pick up is easy and smooth. She was excited to see us but didn't want to leave either! I highly recommend Susie's I'd give a 10 if I could!
I'd never boarded my dogs before. I always had house sitters. I tried Susie's and I was pleased. My dogs seemed happy when I picked them up and didn't smell. When I took them back the second time they seemed happy to be there, so obviously no hard feelings from before. The folks were easy to work with and the check in, check out process was smooth. Nice job folks!
I was helping friends while they were on vacation in Greece. I had to pick up and drop off Barnum, their dog, several times. The staff that work here are so wonderful. You can tell right away how much they love all the pets. I would definitely recommend Susie's and if I had a pet I would not take it anywhere else. You guys are the best.
If I were a dog, I would want my owner to board me at Susie's. Joking aside, I've used Susie's to look after my 3 dogs many times over the last couple of years and have had a consistently excellent experience. I have no doubt how much the people who work there love animals, it shows, and it gives me total peace of mind leaving my boys with them. Additionally, they are wonderful people, kind and helpful. I cannot recommend them enough.
This is the only boarding facility where I wasn’t worried about the well-being of my 3 pups while I was away. Adorable and thought setup. Friendly owner. Extra clean facility. Fair prices. The only kennel we’ll use in Vancouver. Make sure you book early- they are popular and space is hard to come by!
Greatest place and group of folks in the world. If you want a great safe place for your pet to stay at look no further! Absolutely love this place. Suzie, Bobby and Sarah are awesome!
Love Susie's. The dogs are always pleased to go and they seem to take good care of them.
This place deserves all of the awards it can get. And so do the people. I’ll never take my dog anywhere else. Susie’s Country Inn is amazing.
I NEVER leave my dog! However I had to board him for several days & I'm so fortunate a friend told me about Susie's. Welcoming, clean, wonderful staff, excellent care of my baby and reasonably priced. Years ago I had a bad experience leaving my dog so I am very critical of any facility. Susie's ticks all the boxes. You can safely entrust your fur baby to their care.
Susie is a fantastic trainer and she runs an excellent, clean facility that cares about you and your dogs. We have had to leave town fairly frequently and Susie has been dependable, her staff is friendly, the drop-off process is thoughtful and clear. I can't say enough about the facility itself; it has a great vibe. It's welcoming and professional. I know my pets are safe. We feel so very fortunate to have Susie and her team to care for our pets when life takes us out of town. Would recommend, thank you.
Jan deserves 5 stars, we’ve left our dog with her many times and always know he’s in good hands. She has a lot of experience with dogs and is very good with them. Kennels are clean, warm, and dogs are walked twice a day!
Awesome experience! Got a great vibe from the owner, who was super accommodating for drop off/pick up. Didn’t worry about my girl for a minute. It was obvious that Jen has years of experience and has the wisdom and confidence to show for it. The kennel itself was basic, but very clean & cozy. The property was beautiful and the dogs get daily walks in nature. Price was very reasonable and included food, treats, and any little medicine needed to navigate poorly tummies, etc. if they come up. When I picked up, my girl looked healthy (maybe even chunky from all the love she got), happy, and in good health!
So glad I found this place. Jan, the owner, is super friendly and demonstrates great enthusiasm and care for the animals under her care.
I wouldn't trust anyone but Jan with my dogs.... I have been a client of Jan's for several years. She is well caring for my dogs, and treats all of her boarding dogs with love and respect. Jan is very knowledgeable with dogs and the training of dogs, Jan is excellent with small and large breed dogs. As her and her husband were trainers of police dogs. You will not have any concerns when you meet Jan and see the large fenced acreage she has available for the kennel. My dogs and I look forward to our visits at Happy Barker Kennel.
Jan has countless years of hands on experience in caring for and training dogs of all breeds. She is so great with all the dogs she cares for and makes herself available all throughout the year. The kennels are clean and spacious. They are on her beautiful and natural property that is easy to find!
Jan has many years of experience working with dogs. I trust her care, and my dog gets very excited when I drop him off with her, I know he's in good hands.
Jan is the best. My dog Rudy went there his entire life and Jan took care of him like her own. She s an awesome lady.
Jan Fry was great love her she took our older pit for many trips. She also took my new rescue pit/mix who is very Leary of new people. 8 days later she was best buds.
While leaving the dog to go on vacation never feels awesome, I trust he's being well cared for at Happy Barker. Jan is very sweet, lets us know how he's been while we were away, and went above and beyond this last time, when he had a minor problem. As is the nature of vacations in the NW, we usually leave when the weather is worst here, and Pam does everything she can to make sure the dogs stay warm - blankets, doghouses, even space heaters (at a safe distance). To be clear, this is not doggie day care. Doggie day care is not for every dog, or every budget. For our semi-needy, not-always-friendly-with-other-dogs, dog, Happy Barker Kennel is a perfect fit. He loves the walks he gets on the large wooded property. We will be back!
Jan is the best!!! Completely reliable care, attention to detail and affordable. I am always reassured when I go out of town now.
Megan was a LIFESAVER! We had a sudden trip and were unable to book our usual sitters, and so I reached out with less than 24 hour notice and Megan was gracious enough to watch our cats for us. Can't say enough good things: she was easy to communicate with, sent us pictures along with updates of how our babies were doing, and best of all the cats loved her! Highly, highly recommend this business!!
I am so grateful for Megan! Megan was prompt to get back to me when I needed a sitter for my furry feline friend and was flexible coordinating our initial meeting to work best with my schedule, during which she took great notes and requested payment upfront for the initial sitting (the price is very reasonable, read more to see why!). When my trip had to be extended due to unforseen circumstances, Megan was there to save the day! As others have pointed out, Megan went above and beyond, accommodating unusual requests including brushing my little guy's teeth and watering my plants in the scorching heat. When I returned it appeared as though I never left, kitty dishes and litter box sparkling clean, watered plants, and one very happy kitty! I will most definitely be requesting her services again! ❤️
Megan is fantastic, and I would highly recommend her services to anyone needing a trustworthy cat sitter. She is very thorough and professional, and went above and beyond what I would have expected from a cat sitter. She sent me picture updates each day, and you can genuinely tell that she loves cats and is passionate about what she does. Thank you, Megan!
Megan was so wonderful when she looked after my cat on vacation. I knew she was perfect when she came in for the meet and greet with a cat notebook and obvious love for all feline-kind. The very skittish rescue cat I serve warmed up to her, which says a lot about her cat-whispering skills. Megan was also kind enough to keep my plant babies alive. 10/10 would recommend Megan.
I travel so much for work and Megan was prompt and on time when i reached out and made me feel at ease. I own my own business and nice to have someone I trust to watch my cat. Its hard to trust people these days and its nice to have someone to take care of my cat while Im away. I highly recommend Megan shes an amazing cat sitter. Shes a true cat person. Thank you for all you do and taking such good care of my cat Isiah.
I am thrilled to leave a 5-star review for Cat-tastic pet sitting and Megan! From start to finish, my experience with Cat-tastic has been absolutely fantastic. Megan truly loves her cat customers and it shows in the way she cares for them. My kitty is my world, and leaving her with someone else is always a bit nerve-wracking. But from the moment I met Megan, I knew my fur baby was in great hands. She took the time to get to know my cat's personality and routines, and she made sure to keep me updated with daily photos and messages while I was away. Not only did Megan provide exceptional care for my cat, but she also went above and beyond to make sure my home was secure and well-cared for while I was away. She even left a thoughtful note and small gift for my cat upon my return! Overall, I cannot recommend Cat-tastic and Megan enough. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter who truly loves cats, look no further than Cat-tastic!
Megan was a huge help caring for an injured rescue cat we had only had for a few weeks. She was calm and loving, and even provided wound care. Megan was there exactly when she said she would be with no surprise fees or incidents. I came home to a clean litter box, no litter tracked through the house and a comforted, relaxed cat.
Megan did a great job looking after our cat and we have already booked her again. She communicated well with us and our cat was super calm when we got home. Thanks !!!
Megan has taken care of my 16-year old cat, Chicken, on several occasions. She does a fantastic job, providing consistent updates and photos, making sure Chicken eats, has a bit of playtime, and has plenty of fresh water and human time. I don't worry about Chicken while I am away, which is exactly what I was hoping for with my pet sitter.
The only thing worse than having to leave your baby behind when going on a trip is the anxiety of leaving your baby’s care in the hands of a stranger. Fortunately, Megan has quelled that anxiety for me and made my life so much easier. I no longer have to strategize my entire life around my cat-child, or worry if I’m gone for a weekend (or even a week) because I know she and my home are in the best hands. Megan is kind, warm, responsible, and professional. She loves cats (even more than me if that’s possible) and is truly a doll to work with. I’m able to completely trust her, knowing my cat-baby and house are being well taken care of.
Catherine has been watching our two cats during our trips for three years. She genuinely cares for the well being of the kitties, making sure they’re safe, healthy, playing, giving affection. She makes it all easy and we can stay in the moment on our trips.
If I could rate 1,000 stars, I would. Catherine watched our kitties for seven years and gave them so much love while we were away. We always knew they were in good hands with her. We looked forward to her daily updates and loved the photos and videos she shared whenever we traveled. As they aged, she handled changing diets and new medications with ease. She is thorough, capable, kind, and deeply attuned to the kitties in her care.
We have had several cat sitters over the years, but Catherine is by far the best! Her professionalism is unsurpassed, starting with the initial interview, in which she gets a full health history of your cat, and even asks what your wishes would be if you don't return from your vacation. Not exactly something we want to think about, but just an indication of how seriously she takes her role as a caregiver in your absence. While we were away, we got daily updates about our cat and many photos and videos. Catherine went above and beyond to keep us informed about anything going on at our place. We feel completely at ease leaving now, knowing that our cat, and our property, is in good hands. Her love of and respect for cats is apparent.
It was my first time leaving my two cats alone overnight so I was very anxious about it. Catherine’s thoroughness and expertise with cats and their unique behaviors/needs was exactly what I was hoping to find in a cat sitter. The daily text updates with lots of photos put me at ease and allowed me to relax as much as possible on my vacation. Knowing my cats were not only getting their basic needs taken care of every visit (food, clean litter box) but also tons of playtime and attention that was tailored to each of their individual preferences was amazing and something you don’t get with every sitter. If I’m ever in need of a sitter again, Catherine will be the first person I reach out to!
If I could, I would give Comforts At Home Cat Sitting a hundred stars. I have known them for several years and felt completely confident in asking them take care of my inside, one-year old cats for two weeks while I was out of town in October 2024. CAHCS are so knowledgeable, professional, caring and conscientious. During our home visit as we discussed what I needed for my cats. While she had the opportunity to meet them, she made suggestions, based on her experience, that never occurred to me before this time. While I was away, she spent quality time with my cats and sent me daily reports on their progress with photos and videos.(Sadly I cannot get any of from the WhatsApp to share here.) Outside of missing them, Comforts At Home Cat Sitting's daily communication and videos helped me during this time of separation. Each situation and cat is unique and Comforts At Home Cat Sitting is an expert at making the situation stress-free and safe for my cats. Comforts At Home Cat Sitting will be returning in a week to care for my cats while I recover from knee surgery. I am so grateful for Comforts At Home Cat Sitting. I hope you will have the opportunity to meet and have Comforts At Home Cat Sitting care for your cats too.
If you’re looking for a cat sitter who’s truly a godsend, look no further! My boys absolutely adore Catherine, especially when the treat jar makes an appearance. Her skill with giving meds and her fantastic communication have been game-changers for us. Every check-in is filled with updates and incredible photos that make me feel like I’m right there with them—even when I’m far away for work. She’s my go-to sitter, and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Over the past 11 years, I’ve worked with many sitters, but the trust and peace of mind she provides are unmatched. She’s not only a caring sitter but also an awesome collaborator, always sharing valuable insights that have helped me keep my boys happy and healthy. If you’re searching for someone who will treat your cats like family, she's the one!
We've had Catherine with Comforts at Home Pet Sitting take care of our 2 cats during numerous trips - short and long - during the past 2 years that we've lived in Vancouver WA. She is incredibly professional - she gathered tons of info before the pet sitting started - vet, emergency contact, medical issues, etc. and she always gives updates each day - both text (with photos) and written (left for us when we get home). Each time we've felt our cats were very well taken care of (and plants too!), and she's gone above and beyond trying to accommodate our more shy cat. There was a time our apartment manager had scheduled work in our place while were away, and Catherine was flexible and understanding with arranging visits at particular times of the day to make sure the cats were contained to one room while they were entering. As well as moving our outdoor furniture and plants when they painted the building. We're moving away from the area soon, and can only hope to find a pet sitter as wonderful as Catherine in our new city.
Catherine from Comforts at home pet sitting is wonderful!!! Our cats absolutely love her and she spent the time to play with them as well as caring for them, feeding and scooping. She also vacuumed their hair, which made it really wonderful when we came home. She kept us updated on all of their activities and sent us pictures and videos. It made us feel no stress while we were away from home! It certainly makes us want to travel more together, so that we can have that time knowing our cats are well cared for.while away! So we give Catherine our highest recommendation for anyone as a pet sitter!! 2 thumbs and 2 paws way up!!!🐈🐈
Catherine has been an extraordinary pet sitter, and we are thrilled to have her to care for our two kitties. We were so impressed when we did the initial interview with how incredibly thorough she she was in gathering detailed care information and planning for every contingency. While we were away, the daily photos of our cats playing with her, eating, and accepting her affection were incredibly reassuring. Our shyest cat, who often hid under the bed with previous pet sitters, was playing actively on the first day. Animals have a sense of people who genuinely care for them, and they are as happy with Catherine as we are!
My husband and I have always had only great things to say about Catherine and Comforts At Home Pet Sitting. She is honest, diligent, flexible, caring, and sensitive to both human and animal situations. Earlier this year, I gave birth to our first child. Catherine was kind enough to be "on-call" to care for our cat and dog while we were at the hospital. I really appreciated the exception she made for us, so as to fit us in her schedule whenever our baby arrived. Anytime we travel, we are always reassured by Catherine's daily text and photo updates, as well as the detailed notes she leaves behind at our home. Our dog and cat both love her. Over the past 10 years, my husband and I have worked with 5 different pet sitters on both the East and West Coast. Catherine is by far our favorite and most trusted!
