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!
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
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.
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
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, $30/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!
Five-Star Review for Carolyn’s Pet Care We recently boarded our two senior dogs, both 16 years old, at Carolyn’s Pet Care over Thanksgiving, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. While it was a bit pricey, the exceptional care Carolyn provided made it worth every penny. What made this even more special was that Carolyn took our dogs in at the last minute when our usual sitter was unable to care for them. We were in a tough spot, and she graciously made room to board both of our dogs on short notice, which we really appreciated. Carolyn went above and beyond to ensure our dogs were well taken care of. She bathed both of them twice during their stay and even helped our dog Abraham with his flaky skin condition. She carefully combed out the flakes, and since then, his skin has improved remarkably. She kept us updated every night with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her spacious backyard was perfect for the dogs to play, and she made sure they were well-fed, exercised, and clean. She even clipped their nails! Carolyn’s love for animals and her years of experience truly shine through in the care she provides. Despite the cost, the quality of her service and attention to detail were absolutely worth it. We highly recommend Carolyn’s Pet Care to anyone looking for a safe and loving place for their pets!
Carolyn provides the absolute best daytime play environment for our dogs on a weekly basis and takes wonderful care of them when we are out of town. They are always so happy to see her and love spending time at her house with the other dogs she takes care of. Carolyn is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to training and caring for the health of our dogs as well. She provides us with regular updates and sends photos/videos of the dogs when they stay with her. She is incredible!
This review is long overdue. Our Kiki (maltipoo) has been going with Carolyn for about three years now. We wanted to get her out socializing with other dogs, but she didn't like the dog parks. Having Kiki go with Carolyn once a week to visit with her friends and go for a hike turned out to be the best decision we ever made. I have to admit that Kiki is not the friendliest little dog, but Carolyn has taught her to respect and mind her manners around other dogs and people. It was especially important that she behave around our grand kids. Her yard and house are meticulous. Any Fur baby would be lucky to spend time with her. She is great with her dogs, and they all respect and love her. I still don't get how she can have them all to sit still for the group pictures:) Not only is Carolyn the best, but she is now a great friend also! Thanks for all you do Carolyn!! Cathy and Dave
Carolyn is the best find ever! I can’t believe it, but I dropped off an undisciplined, unruly puppy whom I believed to be incorrigible and when I picker her up and brought her home she was so well behaved!! Im in awe of the change in her behavior! Carolyn is the only person I trust with my fur babies. They are well cared and loved by her when we have to be away.
Carolyn is absolutely amazing with all dogs! Our dogs participate in her “socials”. Carolyn provides a well supervised, fun environment for our dogs to to play and interact with lots other dogs regularly. . We travel frequently and rely on Carolyn to care for our dogs often. She is suburb at providing for their needs, very aware of their health issues, dietary issues, etc. She is truly a gifted “dog whisperer”!!
Thank you for the consistent above and beyond service for Stanley. You care for him as a loving family member and we think he feels the same. Not many pet sitters will take take the time to play with him, brush his coat or even offer to trim nails. Keep up the great work Carolyn, you are a true professional!!! - Lots of Aloha, The Zaremba’s
Carolyn is absolutely THE BEST!!!! I rescued a formosan mountain dog mix, Basia, from Taiwan not realizing how fearful and skittish the dog was. It was a struggle taking her for walks and trying to train her because she was terrified of everything and everyone. I tried taking a dog training class locally in my neighborhood but it didn't help. As I was losing hope, my in laws learned about Carolyn's service and referred me and she has transformed my dog! Basia has gained so much confidence. She learned to tolerate all types of situations, she is great on walks and hikes and is now well trained. Family and friends are all shocked at how much Basia has changed for the better! I am very grateful to Carolyn for her patience and effort in working with Basia so she can learn to enjoy life and for all her advice and tips on how to become a better dog parent! Basia's been going to Carolyn's morning social every week for over a year now and Basia LOVES it! She is such a happy dog when she's at Carolyn's with all her friends :) Whenever we travel, we only board Basia with Carolyn knowing she is in good hands. Carolyn is very sweet and understanding and truly has a big heart for animals! I highly highly highly recommend her! :D
Carolyn has been taking care of our Norfolk Terriors for over 12 years. Both Quincy and Chloe were always excited to be with Carolyn and the other dogs. Somehow she has all the dogs together getting their picture taken and they are not making any noise. She has always taken excellent care of them and both my wife and I highly recommend Carolyn for her knowledge and skill with our dogs.
Carolyn is the absolute best! She has frequently cared for our french bulldog for the past 3 years and we are so thankful to have found her! As frenchies tend to be, ours is definitely a little firecracker. He’s silly and sweet, but not what anyone would consider low maintenance. Carolyn loves and cares for him like he’s her own. She is very attentive to his needs and he absolutely loves his time at her house. When he hears the word “Carolyn” his big ears perk right up and he waits excitedly at our door. I rest assured that my dog is in great hands when when he’s with Carolyn. She’s easy to communicate with and very skilled with animals. I highly recommend her services!!
I am so grateful to have found Carolyn many years ago. She is AMAZING! She cares for our cat Stanley. Both while we're out of town and even when we are not... She goes above and beyond in every way!! She has gotten him into the best cat groomer when he really needed - she not only got him in -despite the very long waitlist, she took him while I was at brunch! AND she went into the grooming session with him and assisted the groomer! She is knowledgeable and seems to know exactly what is needed and when. She welcomes when I ask her advice for even the smallest issue and she always gives me great information and recommendations! She is completely capable. When we are away I always feel comfort and relief knowing Carolyn is caring for not only Stanley but also caring for our home and our plants ,better than I do I might add. Stanley always looks so handsome and healthy after she has been with him. She seems to have a sixth sense with him- he can get pretty feisty. She gives him the "tough love" he is in need of. She does everything with strength, love and kindness. Stanley loves her and my husband and I love her and feel so lucky to have her!!!! I can't say enough great things about her, she is one in a million
I just want to state how pleasantly surprised I was with the service provided by WalknRoll. Everyone I talked to throughout the setup/application process was professional, responsive, and friendly. When I dropped my guy Mickey off and met Midori, I was immediately comfortable knowing he would be staying in a beautiful home with a genuinely sweet sitter. Midori and her Family sent me pictures of Mickey playing, resting, and going on walks. I could tell he was having an incredible time. I’m so glad I found Walk n Roll. I’ll definitely be using them in the near future and I know Mickey will be excited to see all his friends again.
Tish and Team are awesome! We completely trust them to take care of our pup and use them every time we need a dog sitter. Very satisfied with their services.
couldnt even get my foot in the door. I tried to set up a new pet appointment. I think Tish was having a bad day & i made a mistake of trying to get information close to closing time. she's successively discouraged me from proceeding with the process. it's clear they do not need your business.
My family found themselves in a very tight spot, and needed care for our four pups right away! Tish and Tissa moved mountains to help us out, and were an integral part for several months of providing care in one way or another for us, whether it be transporting them to and from the vet, long term boarding, and spoiling them with love and snuggles! When we were able to get back to them, they were very happy and you could tell they had been cared for beautifully! Thank you ladies for all you do!
We have been using Walk N Roll Pet Sitting since our Golden Retriever, Sophie, was a puppy and have had such a positive experience. Our primary sitter, Midori and her family, are amazing and the consistent updates on social media let us know that Sophie is enjoying her time while we are away. I highly recommend Walk N Roll.
My pup was so well taken care of! I really liked that they posted videos and pictures during my dog's stay. Will be using their service again!
Tish and Anissa at Walk N Roll came through for me and my pup big time at the last minute when I had a sudden surgery that had an extensive recovery time. I couldn't care for my dog and was in a panic of what to do. They were there for us every step of the way, even when recovery didn't go as easily as planned, they were able to accommodate and keep my baby safe in their care longer so I could focus on getting better. I could see in the photos that my pup was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. They were flexible and compassionate and always had my dog's best interest at heart. This is a really first class operation and I highly recommend Walk N Roll Pet Sitting without hesitation. Thanks for caring for Rio!
At Walk N Roll, our dog was treated like one of the family, and she received so much love and attention. While she was there for a 2 week stay, we were sent photos regularly of our dog going on outings, or relaxing at home. This helped to keep my children calm, knowing that their beloved pet was in good hands. When our return flights were suddenly canceled, they were very gracious and accommodating, which was such a relief! Knowing that our rescue dog was safe and loved, in a caregivers home (and not in a boarding facility in a small cage with a dog run), gave us so much comfort. As testament to the care she received, our dog is now missing her Walk N Roll pet sitter!
Leaving my golden retriever, Ginger, for two weeks felt like I was leaving my daughter behind, but when I saw how well cared for she was by Midori and family through social media posts, including both pictures and videos, I knew she was in the best of hands. In fact, I have already scheduled Ginger to stay with her again for my next upcoming trip. I would absolutely recommend Walk N Roll Pet Sitting and Dog Walking to anyone needing dog sitting or walking.
Walk N Roll watched our two labradoodles over the Christmas and New Year holidays. Our trip was relaxing now that Tish and Anissa were taking good care of our dogs. We received photos almost everyday, and they went out of their way to kept us posted. Will definitely use their services again!
It's clean and there's lots of things for the dogs to play with. The person that showed us around was very nice and answered every question we had. They even offer different packages tailored to fit your dog's needs. For example, I got the calming package for my dog. After taking the tour,I felt much better about leaving my dog with them for the night.
These folks really care about the pets left in their care. They put the effort in for our guy, Mr G, to make him feel comfortable in spite of his reactivity. We really appreciate the staff at Joyful Paws and think you will too!
I was so terrified to leave my 6 month old kitten fo the 6 days, but every staff member I encountered was able to ease my fears!! My kitten did so well, they were so patient and kind with him. He can be a bit spicy when meeting new people, but he adapted do well to their kindness. I most definitely will be returning for a visit to Joyful Paws Hotel!!
While the staff was friendly, I was extremely dissatisfied with this day care. Please DO NOT take your dog here under any circumstances. The first time I took my husky here, his nails were bleeding when I picked him up. When I asked staff, they had no idea what the cause was and barely noticed it when they turned in my dog to me. He must have been pawing at a fence for a long time and gotten ignored! The other two times I took him, he came out a complete mess and extremely dirty. The picture below is the last time ever brought him in on August 18 2023. He had a horrible stain on his left cheek that almost TWO MONTHS LATER has not completely gone away!!! If you look closely, he still has a light pink/brown stain on his left cheek. I’ve tried professional groomers, whitening shampoo, and nothing works. I assume it must have been some type of tar or oil that my husky got into. Once again, I asked staff if they knew what he was getting himself into, and they were unaware of what caused the mess. They didn’t notice it until they gave me my dog at pickup. Lastly, I know someone who’s dog suffered a spinal injury here and they deleted the footage!! Regardless if you believe the spinal injury story, the evidence of how Joyful Paws neglected my dogs needs is right here. I will be taking my dog to the vet and after the evaluation, I will reach out to Joyful Paws and request compensation because this is ridiculous especially for the price they charge. If you care about your dog’s safety please don’t leave them here.
Staff was super friendly and helpful. It was a first for my pup and they made us feel comfortable and secure. Will be using them on a regular basis. Ive been going here for over a year and continue to be impressed with the staff who look after our Ollie! oliver loves the staff and all his friends at Joyful Paws.
My Chihuahua loves to go here and be social with his friends when I'm busy. Recently boarded him for three nights and he was returned happy and healthy. Will return for more visits! They are very well organized
My dog stayed here for the first time this past week. I was very impressed with the professionalism of Joyful Paws and completely trusted that my dog was safe and well taken care of here. I was able to watch my dog during play time every day with the Wag Vision live cameras. I loved the daily report cards and photos! Also, she was given a great thanksgiving meal, a bath, nail trim, and goody bag upon departure. I recommend Joyful Paws to all my fellow pet parents! Definitely will continue coming here for lodging and maybe even daycare! They are also great with following COVID precautions - limited people in the lobby allowed, curbside pickup/drop off, wearing masks, etc.
My dog LOVES Joyful Paws - he’s always so excited to go. The staff is super friendly and very attentive! I love that they do breaks during the day so the dogs aren’t overstimulated and given time to rest between play times.
This was Mimi’s first time boarding and Joyful Paws took great care of her. We received a daily report card with pictures letting us know how she was doing. Highly recommend and will definitely use their services again!
1st day meet and greet. Staff was very pleasant i was given a tour this morning, and the young lady answered all of my concerns. Made me feel comfortable leaving ny dog in their care. The facility was clean. I had the ability to view my dog through Webcam which is a big plus. He was a little shy, but with time i do believe he will adjust. TY for caring and for taking care of Taco
Highly recommend! We love and are so grateful to Ally McPets for providing high-quality, easy-to-book care for our guinea pigs. Jill is great to work with and our sitter Jordan always does an amazing job. It’s a huge relief to know that when we go out of town, our pets are in good hands. We especially love the service reports with pictures! ♥️
We went on vacation for over 2 weeks and left our cat, Edward, with Ally McPets. We couldn’t be happier! Every night we received a detailed report and adorable photos! Katrina did an AMAZING job. I will recommend Ally McPets to all of my friends and we will be using this service again. Ally McPets gave us peace of mind.
We started using Ally McPets this year after moving to their service area. We have 2 dogs and usually request drop-in visits. We receive pictures and report cards very quickly after the visits are completed. Our sitter, Carol, is great and it has been really easy to work with both her and Jill. Highly recommend!
New clients to Ally McPets and we loved the service. We highly recommend them as they are very caring and knowledgeable professionals. We were away for a week, Rose our sitter, sent us daily updates and pictures of our fur baby. We will definitely use their services again.
We have used Ally McPets for 3 years and their service is excellent. They came out for an initial consultation to meet our pets and have taken great care of them wherever we are gone for a few days or a few weeks. After each visit they send an email update with pictures and even bring mail and packages inside. We fully trust Amber and Jill with our pets!
Amazing service! It was our first time to leave our cat home alone for over two days, but since the meet and greet meeting with Jill I knew i could trust them and Ms. Cookie would be in good hands. They were very responsive form day 1, very professional and thorough during the meet and greet appointment, when they took notes on our cat's habits. They send you a daily report with pics that really makes you know someone is actually taking care of your pets. We were away for almost three weeks and we never felt worried for our cat, we knew she was getting the best care possible. We will keep using Ally McPets and we'll recommend them to our firends.
Amazing company. This was my first time using Ally McPets services and I am very happy with the care they provided for my pets. They were quick to respond to my initial email and were very professional during the meet& greet. They took notes and asked questions regarding the needs for my two birds and guinea pig. During the week we were out of town I received daily reports with pictures that assured me my pets needs were met. I look forward to using their services when I go out of town and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for the best care for their pets. Ollie, Sophia and Winter are so grateful to have had Adrienne take care of them.
Ally McPets is a godsend for those trying to arrange care for their pets when drawn out-of-town for fun or work! We were scrambling to find someone who could care for a 10-week year old kitten we rescued two weeks before a previously scheduled vacation. The kitten had warmed up to us after having being abandoned and we were concerned our absence would set him back (possibly permanently). Ally McPets saved the day. The kitten took to the person they assigned to feed and visit him. While we were away, we enjoyed the daily reports and pictures that were sent. When we returned, it was like the kitten never missed a beat. Thank you Ally McPets for being there!
Jill from Ally McPets is the best! For the past 3 years, Jill has consistently provided top level of service. She is organized, dependable, and compassionate, and can even administer medications while we're away. I love that Jill is so quick to respond. Whether it's a request for a pet sitting date or asking her to check if I left the garage door open in my rush to the airport, I get a response quickly. Jill is a true professional and perfect for the job.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALLY McPETS. Jill and her team at Ally McPets have been my trusted pet sitter for more than 7 years. She's almost like a member of the family. It is such a comfort to know Ally McPets is looking in on our cats when we're away, giving them much needed attention, (medicine when necessary), refreshing food and water, cleaning their litter boxes and also other light duties such as bringing in mail and keeping an eye on the house. Jill is also very responsive for those times when we haven't been able to give her much advance notice to arrange service. We're so grateful for her flexibility. Plus, she and her team are really nice people - an absolute pleasure to do business with. FIVE STAR PLUS!
I hired Lisa to watch over my great dane while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. Monster (my dog) usually gets very upset when I'm gone and the 2nd day Lisa came to my home to find that he had severe intestinal distress and there was diarrhea ALL OVER the house. He will always react that way when I'm gone. When I returned from my trip I came home to find the sofa and the carpet and the floors..spotless! She cleaned up the mess he made with out one complaint!!! Also, Monster was happy to see me, as usual, but pined for Lisa for 3 days. He fell in love! Now when she watches him, he no longer gets diarrhea and is much calmer when I leave. BEST PET SITTER EVER!!!!!!!
Lisa is a great Pet Sitter! My cats just love her! I always know that they will have the best of care when she is there. Lisa's love of animals is very apparent from the first time you meet her. She's been doing this for a long time & the reason why is her love for all animals! She always does a great job & leaves my kitchen immaculate. Her rates are also very reasonable for the great care she provides. I love Lisa! I wouldn't have anyone else take care of my animals!
Lisa was great w/my Aust Shepard who is smart and can create a disaster when bored. In 2hrs I learned how to make Chloe happy wo/killing my schedule. Lisa trains you to lead ur dog to be happily guided!
Lisa is the dog whisperer! She has been taking care of my two dogs and 3 cats for the past 8 years. Lisa is reliable, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable about caring for the needs of my fur babies. She has also trained both of my dogs and has converted them from timid, unruly and hostile stray dogs to the most obedient, friendly well-behaved pups. My cats also love her. We depend on Lisa’s pet-sitting services on a weekly basis and couldn’t own pets without her. I highly recommend Lisa’s Pet Sitting to anyone looking for superior pet care while away at work or vacation.
Lisa helped me train a rescue dog that did not know anything! He was not leash trained and he was bit 'nippy'. One session with Lisa and magically he let me do absolutely any handling without nipping and learned to walk on the leash! We further refined his training and I now have the most wonderful and obedient dog ever. I cannot say enough about the way the animals love Lisa and her ability to communicate with animals is uncanny. Furthermore, while training my dog, she trained me to continue teaching him effectively. Nothing short of amazing. I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough. If there were 10 stars she would get 10 stars!
Lisa has taken care of my 2 dogs at my home in San Pedro several times in the last 10 years. She keeps a copy of my house key at all times. Lisa is a professional and she is trustworthy with my most precious furbabies. She has great knowledge and understanding of animal behaviors so that she can assess the needs of your animal while you are absent. Lisa is great and I highly recommend her.
I have used Lisa’s pet sitting for over 20 years. She is without a doubt the most loving caring responsible Pet sitter I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I had two aging cats and a job that took me out of town at least one week out of 2 months. Lisa’s knowledge of cat behavior and cat health was so helpful when dealing with my aging cats. Now that I have a two-year-old rather large dog Lisa again to the rescue. She has taught and trained my new dog to be obedient and a complete pleasure to be around. She is truly super well rounded With really anything that has four legs. I feel so lucky to of Met Lisa 20 years ago.
Lisa provided in home dog care for my Willie for the last 10 years until he passed away in August. In fact, I think she loved him as much as I did! I never worried about him while he was in Lisa's care. The quality of her service was self evident every time I returned and saw his precious face. His happy welcome whenever she came made it clear that I had made the right choice to trust her with my precious pet. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a caring pet giver who really understands how to interact with dogs in a manner that allows them to feel safe. My Willie was fearful of strangers and had trouble trusting. From the first introduction, Lisa was able to win his trust because she interacted with him in a manner that wasn't threatening. I was overjoyed as we had tried other sitters who couldnt get past the front door. They didn't want to invest their time into building a relationship with him. I will continue to use Lisa when I'm ready to get my next companion. Thank you Lisa for taking such good care of my Willie.
Lisa had been taking care of my pets for over 30 years, many cats and a dog. I have been very happy with her service, she is professional and it is obvious she loves her work and your pets. I highly recommend her her for when you need a pet sitter. You will be happy too
We first met Lisa at agility training for our dogs in 2010. She impressed us with her compassion with her dogs. She treated them well and they responded positively to her. We started using her for pet sitting in 2011 and every year since then. Her prices are reasonable, she is always on time and takes great care of our 2 dogs (Minnie and Gus). They love her. As an example we were at the Terraces recently and Lisa happened to walk by. Minnie became excited when she saw Lisa and actually jumped out of the car and chased after her to greet her. I don’t understand how anybody would have anything negative to say about her. She’s the best.
5 Stars for Sitting Pretty and Ashley! I have been taking my two year old Malshi here since he was a puppy on the recommendation of my trainer. I couldn't be happier. Ashley cares so much about her dogs. Her staff goes beyond the call of duty to meet every pup's needs. Thank you Ashley and everyone at Sitting Pretty!
We LOVE Sitting Pretty!! I have entrusted my last 4 dogs (aka my babies!) to their care when we are out of town and for day care every so often. I can leave them with peace to know how wonderfully they are cared for. And my dogs have the best times there with all their "friends!" In fact, my little guy is going for a play date today - when we are a few blocks away he knows & gets so excited!! I highly recommend Sitting Pretty!!!
Love this place, it is big and the staff is friendly. I’ve been having a lot of work done at home and this is a great place for my doggies to hang out.
Ashley is passionate about what she does. I recommend her services. Your dogs will feel like they never left home!
Ashley and her staff are the best!! I always know that my Lexi is loved and cared for.
Awesome daycare. Ashley is the best. Really cares about the dogs in her care and treats them like family!
Ashley is just amazing and such a sweetheart! She takes such amazing care of the pups in her possession.
Ashley handles my handful of a dog like a true artist. We love everything about this place!
I am very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Ashley and her awesome team. I couldn't do it without them.
Ashley and team are fabulous. My Blu cant wait to get thru the entryway.
From the moment I opened the door I knew this was a great place for my pups. I was greeted warmly and I think I needed reassurance more than my dogs, Gracie & Jon Snow. They both passed the socialization and I soon took them to their 1st daycare on a Sunday. They’re already friendlier dogs on their walks and with strangers they don’t bark as much. They also slept well! I feel really confident to leave them at Canine Retreat for a quick getaway trip! They are making friends, too! Thanks, Canine Retreat! Everything has been thought of regarding your dog, well organized and intelligent, warm-hearted professionalism! A 10/10 or maybe an 11!
We love Canine Retreat. The staff is always so friendly. I feel so confident leaving my 11 year old pup there. They offer baths while they are there. So convenient. We appreciate all that they do! 🐶 …
We joined 6 months ago and it has been a beyond a wonderful experience having our Golden Retriever Retro be a part of Canine Retreat pack. Especially on days that rain and daylight savings combined when we are unable to take him to the Doggie Park it is perfect. Retro loves other dogs so much and being able to drop him off in early AM before work and pick him up after work is truly a God send. The staff are so very professional and I am always relieved to see him on the Webcam whenever I want. Retro gets so excited to go there everytime, he just cant wait to go have fun, and he adores the staff there. He lights up with a grin from ear to ear and he has it everytime we drop him off. Retro is definitely one happy guy to be there. If I could give them more than 5 stars 🌟 I would for sure!
Milo LOVES Tuesdays as he knows he gets to spend the day at CR. At 8:00 am he is sitting by the door waiting to get in the car. He has so much fun playing with the dogs and I am grateful that the staff is always present and interactive with the pups. We are very pleased.
We have been taking our dog here since November. I don’t have enough words or space to say how much we love bringing our precious pup to Canine Retreat. The staff is so friendly and loves our little pup like their own. The dogs are separated by size and are supervised the whole time. You can watch them on camera and it’s been so fun to watch our shy, scared puppy grow into a confident member of the pack. We cannot get her out of the car fast enough when we arrive. It’s her favorite place other than home. We highly recommend canine retreat. We have complete peace of mind when we leave her there. It’s a great place to socialize your puppy. We love you Canine Retreat!
I feel more comfortable going on trips knowing that my dogs are well taken care of and I love that I can watch them via webcam! Casey is always so welcoming and it makes me feel good that the dogs are always excited to see her! She is truly great at what she does!
We are always happy to drop our sweet fur girl off at Canine Retreat! We feel confident she will be well taken care of and have lots of fun too!
Good place for doggy daycare. They have overnight boarding as well. There are webcams so you can monitor your dog 🐶 online. …
We are so happy with Canine Retreat and most importantly our sweet fur baby loves it also, she has had a couple of day stays and we also have just recently gone out of town and we left her in the GREAT care of all the fur baby care givers. We were able to check in on her now and then through their online camera system,such a fabulous way to stay connected to your fur baby...we and our fur baby Lex,i LOVES Canine Retreat...❤❤❤
It's so hard leaving your babies, let alone all day. So, finding a daycare that really puts the needs of your dog first has to be priority when choosing a daycare. Especially when it comes to your dogs routine and health. Canine Retreat does not seem to put the individual needs of your dog first. My babies were in their care yesterday for almost 12 hours! when I dropped them off I was rudly told by the older heavy set brunette in the front that I should have read the lunch and dinner information in the packet I was given on trial day. I brought dinner since my dogs were going to be in their care for almost 12 hours.She told me dinner was ONLY for Boarders. I asked if I could come by to feed my dogs dinner and was told no and then she had the audacity to tell me " your dogs will be fine. Most dogs don't even eat luch and since you're packing a luch they will be fine." .... It was clear that she did not care about my dogs health or their routine... Not to mention, my dogs didn't have a full lunch packed they only had a lite snack and would be going almost 14 hours between meals. AND I was still charged $8 for them to give my dogs their lunch snack. The cost is outrageous for daycare plus we have never been to a daycare where they charge you to give your dog a lunch that you packed. There are so many other daycares that give dogs rest breaks and the meal times are included in daycare price. It was horrible that instead of me feeling happy and worry free that my babies were in good hands while I was away, I was anxious not knowing how they were and worried because they had gone so long without a meal. To top it off, they advertise cameras, and they do not have this set up at the moment;so I was also unable to view my dogs. lastly, upon pick up I would like to know how they did, especially since it was their first day, and I'm unsure why I have to ask how they did. I am very displeased with the service I received, and I will definitely not be bringing my dogs back here.
This is the only place I trust leaving my babies! I have two fur babies- one is my dog aggressive old man and the other one is a very high energy pup. Bringing them here I know they will be safe. They have enclosed playtime together with no exposure to other dogs. I always get the VIP room for my old man and they take such great care of him. My high energy pup I bring here often for daycare and she loves it, especially when she can go swimming! The staff here is always great and I appreciate all the love and care they show my babies and myself!
VCA Kennel Club is the only boarding facility I trust with my pup! I love my dog more than ANYTHING, so when I trust a place or person with him it is a major milestone. I am beyond grateful for this place. I am able to take long and worry-free vacations because I know my dog is in good hands. They even sent me a photo of my pup when he was there during my birthday one year. Talk about cuteness overload. If you’re a super anxious paranoid dog mom or dad like me, then VCA Kennel Club is the place for you. Please support them! Book a stay for your pup for boarding or daycare! I hope they stay in business forever!
Thank you for taking great care of Remi and getting him to the hospital quickly. You folks are so caring and professional, we appreciate all that you did to take care of our boy!
Wonderful, attentive personnel. Due to surgery I had to board my fur baby for over a month. Her care was excellent. She had daily walks, swim lessons (lol, not sure she enjoyed these) and playtime. If needed, I would definitely board her here again even though it's a long drive as I live on the westside of L.A.
My dog Pearl stayed for 4days. They were so caring and when I called every day they were so nice and let me know how she was doing. She must have had a good time. Love VCA Resort and Spa. I will never take Pearl anywhere else. Thank you for the excellent and loving care you gave Pearl.
We have been apart of the VCA Kennel Club family for almost 10 years! The team does a great job taking care of our boys. I highly recommend the aqua therapy for water loving dog.
Superb staff, welcoming service, pampering boarding / baths in a safe location is why we always choose VCA KCRS. Our lab Kona & Husky Willow are regulars here. Highly recommend making KCRS your pups 2nd home.
The staff at VCA Kennel Club love animals and it shows. My dog Max is always well cared for. They have great services that give your pet the TLC they deserve. I highly recommend them.
Nobody likes having to board their dog for any amount of time, but the staff here at the Kennel Club have made it easier for me and my dog. My husky shepherd has some separation anxiety so she hates being anywhere else without us, but she's already made friends with the staff at the Kennel Club after just 3 stays. Knowing that she's well liked and feels familiar with the team at the facility has been very helpful for my peace of mind whenever she stays at the Kennel Club.
We have been customers of VCA Kennel Club Resort and Spa in Torrance for over 16 years with 5 dogs during this time. We had tried in-home pet sitting with familiar people and the dogs were healthier and happier when I would board them at VCA. Most of the staff has been there since we began going there in 2003. I feel so relaxed about going away whenever we drop the dogs off, they take great care of them and the dogs never get nervous when we bring them. The staff knows them by name when they arrive and the dogs are always happy to see them. It's the only place we consider for our dogs!
Barbie and her team at Superstar Petsitter was a wonderful find for me and my neighborhood of dogs. Her sitters go above and beyond and give the fur babies so much love that I wonder if they like our petsitter more. They are capable, easygoing and stick to my rules for my pups. I highly recommend her team any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
Superstar Pet Sitting has provided reliable and loving care to my 2 cats for about 5 years now and take great care of them in our absence. They feed and water them, clean their litter box and provide photos of our cats at each visit. I trust my cats are safe and in good loving hands with Superstar Pet Sitting!
Superstar Pet Sitting has been my trusted and reliable catsitter for the past four years. Barbie and her staff treat my babies like their own, and I love the care and attention they provide. Sometimes I think the cats like Barbie more than me! They send photos and texts during sessions, and always go above and beyond. My house is always left in a perfect condition with happy pets when I return. Highly recommend.
Barbie and her team have been wonderful sitters for our senior dog who has many needs, and our cat who has a big personality. We had a bad experience with a previous sitter and were nervous about leaving our senior dog with another sitter, but Barbie and her team have provided reliable and professional service and a loving and caring environment that made us feel secure about leaving our pets in their hands. They are especially attentive to our dog's special requirements, ensuring he is comfortable and well-cared for at all times. They also keep us updated with photos and notes about how our fur babies were doing while were gone. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pets as much as you do, look no further than this fantastic team!
Barbie is fantastic!! I always feel secure in leaving my furry kid, Jasmine the cat, in her care. I hate to leave her, but I feel secure knowing she is in capable and loving hands. Barbie is super reliable. She provides punctual updates with pics, videos and notes at each visit. I would highly recommend her and her business to anyone in need of pet care. And Jasmine thinks so, too 😊
Superstar dog walkers have reliably and consistently walked my dog, given her food, water, and lots of love and attention for over a year. Barbie is easy to work with. I can text her with instructions and leave a reminder note for the dog walker. Highly recommend Superstar for your pets' care.
Barbie was always available when we needed her help with our cat. She took care of her, made her happy and provided regular updates with pictures and videos, which was very reassuring. Highly recommended her services.
Barbie and her staff have been looking after our cats for around 7 years and she has been dependable and caring to them, even at times with short notice. It's always hard to be away from a pet for extended periods of time but Superstar pet sitting has given us peace of mind when away.
I have used Superstar Pet Sitting (and Walking) for many months and I’ve been very impressed for the following reasons: 1. It’s so easy to see how much my fur baby loves her walker. She’s a small dog, but she manages to wag her entire body when she sees her walker. 2. I’ve watched my dog’s walker interact with her. She so good with my girl. You can see how much she likes what she does with fur babies. 3. My dog’s walker is extremely reliable. She comes on time and on the scheduled days. In addition, she is very flexible. The few times I’ve requested a change in time, she’s always made it happen. 4. Barbie, the owner, runs a very organized business. She sends you a bill for the week on Thursdays. You pay via PayPal, Venmo, etc. before 7:00 on Friday. She sends you the following week’s schedule over the weekend. She’s got an upbeat personality and you can tell she loves pets and running her business. I highly recommend Superstar Pet Sitting (Pet Walking). It gives you peace of mind knowing that the pet you love is being cared for by wonderful people. You can’t go wrong in trusting Barbie and her pet care givers. P.S. My dog won’t let her walker get away until she gives her a treat! (Picture below)
We’ve used Superstar Pet Sitting for years now for our aggressively friendly house cat, Meeko. We love knowing that Meeko gets all the care and attention she craves when we’re off on vacation. Barbie, the owner, sets up all scheduling and was even the one to do the care one week when the team member we usually use didn’t happen to be available. Barbie always sends over photos and a brief report of the visit which gives us peace of mind. It’s hard to get comfortable with strangers in your home while you’re away and we’re grateful to have found such a trustworthy company that we can use over and over again
The best! Mihail is flexible, caring, and trustworthy. I’m very particular about who I leave my dog with and I’ve loved having him and his team to take care of my girl. The pick up and drop off makes coordinating with my 13 hour work days so much easier. My dog is always excited to go with him & comes home tired!
We were looking for a dog trainer as well as pet boarding. Mihail, owner of Long Beach Pet Care was highly recommended for our 6-month-old Brittany, Rhett. He loved his new play friends. He enjoyed group walks & lots of socializing and training at his 2 week-long summer camp. Mihail took such great care of our Rhett. I never worried about him. We live in Brea, the distance was not at all a problem for us. We highly recommend LBPC. Taking Rhett there will be a pleasure.
We found Long Beach Pet Care, shortly after moving to Long Beach a few years ago. The thing was we needed a dog walker that had experience with senior large breeds, specifically Akita‘s. If you own a Akita or large breed like an Akita, you know the struggle of finding reliable dog walkers, kennels or dog sitters that are willing to work with your breed. We were so happy to have found Mihail and his team with Long Beach Pet Care! They have a initial meet and greet, to make sure it’s a good fit. Our dog loved her walks with Mihail and team. She also got to enjoy group walks! I noticed a huge difference when I took her for walks after being walked by Mihail, she would walk at my pace. We had such a great experience with the walks, we added on daycare at times and overnight boarding. They truly care about the animals they walk or board, and as a owner you can have peace of mind that your dog will be exercised and enjoy fun times.
Although, a generous Tip and and Thank you might seem like enough for a job well done with our fur-babies. I felt the need to share our very recent experience so that you a current or potential client of Long Beach Pet Care can rest assured that you have found the Absolute Best!!! in Pet Care and Boarding. Monday, April 25th, 2022. Received a call from my sister in law that my brother who is a cancer survivor and current dialysis patient is Septic throughout his body and Gangrene along with other heart issues has given him only days to live. As I am throwing stuff in a bag with one hand and renting a car to drive to Idaho with the other. I am thinking I have to go online and try and book care for my fur babies asap! I can’t even think at this point. I just call Mihail and leave him what I am sure is a very frantic message of needing care for my babies. I make contact with Mihail and he is so quick to assure me that he has “the crew” which he calls my 3 babies. I tell him I don’t know when I will be back and he says don’t worry I’ve got them. Just keep in touch. Yes! I have used Mihail’s services once before and that was a Huge Success!! So, his few words put me at ease that I didn’t have to worry. His constant communication during the time I was gone was priceless to me. I’m sure it was just his way of continuing to offer support and ease at a time that I needed it most. Far from what you could expect from an overpriced boarding/kennel service. Not only were my babies able to stay in their own home. Mihail’s, prices and commitment to care for them as his own. Made a very difficult time, the best experience for me and my babies!! Thank you Mihail!!!❤️
My Sunday loved Mihail! He's such a gem. I know she's safe and well taken care of when with him. Also, I get updates daily, great communication!
Long Beach Pet Care and its owner Mihail were a godsend to me three years ago when I was trying to find a dog walker for my new rescue pit-bull, Petunia. She is my baby, and I was not going to leave her in the hands of just anyone. Mihail took the time to come and meet Petunia -- free of charge -- to ensure she was a good fit for him and the other dogs she would be around, which she was. That was three years ago, and since then Petunia and Bowie (another pit mix who joined our family a few months later) have enjoyed countless doggy daycare outings and hikes with Mihail and the pack. You have to check out his Instagram account @longbeachpetcare to really get a sense of how amazing he is; I call him the 'LBC Dog Whisperer.' Even more important, Petunia and Bowie love and adore Mihail. Before I leave for work, I tell them both, "have fun with Mihail today," and its instant smiles and wiggle-butts. I have such peace of mind knowing my babies are in good hands and being taken care of like they are members of the family. I HIGHLY recommend Long Beach Pet Care for your pet needs; you -- and your fur babies -- will not be disappointed.
Mihail is wonderful, plain and simple. We consider him a member of the family and know our dog is completely safe and well-cared for when with him, and that's priceless!
Very dependable in the two times I've hired this service. The communication is prompt and consistent. I'm able to trust them with my pets and to enter my home. I would recommend as a good option for people in the Long Beach area.
They really care! Like you take your pet here and they will do a great job!
Our pet sitter for almost 7 years.
