Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
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!
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
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!
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
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!
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!
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, $10/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
We are so glad to have found this kennel. We had to leave our dog for an extended trip and upon our return we found our dogs were clean, well cared for and most of all happy. They have a wonderful run outside which the dogs love. When we returned for another weekend stay the dogs were excited to see Larry, the owner as well as his wife and son, with tails wagging. It made us very happy to see that the dogs consider this a "happy place" . The place is neat, clean and tidy. Highly recommend.
Larry treats yor dog like family. Reasonable price a fenced in yard perfect for your fur baby and his needs.Plus he's a vet so support him!;)
Larry will take care of your pet. Boarded there many times.
Very nice owners, with good facilities and take quality care of the animals in their care.
Great kennel for our pup's!
My dog's true home away from home!
Missing fence. Lost a dog for two days. Didn’t tell owner. Doesn’t treat employees right. He made me cry everyday at work. Doesn’t clean the facility. Exposed wiring everywhere. No bathroom door just a curtain. Dogs could get sick from exposed wiring and not cleaning kennels. Broken wire that cut a dog and it’s not fixed. Don’t take your dog here. The groomer abuses dogs. The owner is never there. You have no help or direction. Do not go there stay away
I am beyond thankful to have met Andrew and the staff of Blue Mountain K-9. Jett has received private training here in past years, but my gratitude really comes from recently when my husband and I booked an international trip and had another boarding facility no-show during our designated drop off time. I called Andrew in an emotional panic at 6:30 pm on a Friday and he HAPPILY took all three of our large dogs for a week stay. I cannot say enough good things about Andrew, or this facility. Had it not been for him, we would’ve had to cancel our vacation. This facility is reliable and will treat your pets with the same love that you do.
Took my Shih Tzu Avery to get groomed at Blue Mountain K-9 ❤️. Michaela Hunt did an outstanding job. She was friendly and professional and her love for animals clearly shows. Highly recommended!
Blue Mountain K-9 is a beautiful facility staffed by fantastic trainers. I attended a workshop there and their kindness and hospitality is unmatched, and body of knowledge is priceless. As a professional dog trainer myself, I highly recommend Blue Mountain K-9 for all your dog training needs!
My little Rat Doxie was very content when I got her home. She loved Adam and when I picked her up from a week boarding , she was more happy to see him than me. Lol. So I knew she was well cared for.
Took our rescue here for his first grooming. The lady handled him perfectly, seemed very experienced, and got all the mats out of his fur and ears. It took a little longer than expected, but it seems this place takes the time to let the dog feel comfortable. If your looking for a doggy spaw day, this is it. If you want a quick in-and-out grooming, this is not for you. I will be going here regularly.
Katianne took such good care of all three of my dogs, I'd recommend this place to anyone who asked!
Highly recommend this place! Pets are like children and it can be difficult to trust strangers to take care of them but what anxiety I had went away and I felt like I wasn’t leaving my dog with babysitter’s but with extended family. An added bonus was affordability and I felt they were so great with my dog at daycare that I even decided to do training with them. Ruby has anxiety and leash reactivity due to a bad start in life and she has greatly improved with the help of Andrew and Haleigh! We are sad my travel assignment is over but thanks for all you have done the past few months to go above and beyond in caring for my fur baby! Heather and Ruby
They do a great job with training. Michaela is a kind, pet-loving groomer. She is not at all hesitant to work with large dogs and does a wonderful job with them.
We travel almost 2 hours to board our dogs here! We will go nowhere else! Our dogs are so so happy when we pick them up. We have used their training services too. Andrew made a world of difference with our doodle.
Kooper loved his stay. He is not crated at home and loves other dogs so this style worked perfectly for him. Trisha also rescued us when the other boarding facility fell through last minute!!! We’ll definitely use her services again.
My dog Neo spends 2 days a week at Critter Cabin daycare and is also boarded there when we go away. Neo loves going to Critter Cabin. On the drive there as we get closer Neo gets more and more excited. She comes home tired and happy.
My dog Blizzard has been going to daycare and has been boarded at Critter Cabin periodically for 2 years. He loves being there so much that I never feel badly about leaving him. Trisha expertly pairs dogs so they get along and have fun. She is wonderful and caring. Highly recommend!
Found her thru Google, my normal boarding was already full for Thanksgiving. She accepted them and got me booked. My dogs came back happy and relaxed, slept the whole way home. The kicker is, my normal boarding is just a kennels with potty/play breaks. This place is basically kennel free. And she's barely much more than my normal boarding place. I'll be going here from now on. Thank you for taking care of my handful of dogs!
I recently bordered my bird with Trisha at the critter cabin and I couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. She goes above and beyond for all of her animals in her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to board their pet.
My aussie Kronk had a wonderful time at the Critter Cabin. He was exhausted after a long weekend of running and playing with the other dogs being housed at the Critter Cabin. I am very pleased with the experience as a whole and will definitely be taking my animals back there anytime I am in need of someone to watch them. I would give them more stars if I was able to.
Just all around great. We were getting ready to leave for vacation and the boarding place we were supposed to go to wasn't answering so I called and explained we were leaving the next day they emailed me the paperwork that night and took her that morning. They came out met us with smiles and the love they showed storm rite away was just so reassuring that she would b OK just an amazing place will always use and recommend to everyone thanx again everyone at critter cabin
Trisha and everyone at the Critter Cabin did a great job looking after my pet for a few days. She followed all the complicated instructions I left, and my pet seemed really content and happy there. 10/10
They absolutely loved on our pup as if it was their own. Sent regular updates as needed since he was having a tummy ache.
My Frank is the happiest boy when we pull up and when I pick him up. Trish is fantastic.
