Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
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, $38/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!
Paw Sweet Paw is the absolute best for your pets!!! They love going for boarding and the staff is so nice and attentive. The vet services are great too! It is a comfort that there is a vet on hand while your pups are boarding or at day care. They do a great job with grooming as well! I highly recommend!!
Great service, clean, friendly staff. We take our pup grooming here. Would recommend if you want to clean your dog up.
Great place for grooming. I can't recommend Paw Sweet Paw enough for their excellent grooming services! My dog had the best experience here. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive to both me and my furry friend. They listened to my requests and paid attention to every detail, leaving my dog looking and feeling fantastic. The grooming itself was top-notch; my dog came out looking like a superstar! I'm so glad I found Paw Sweet Paw and will definitely be returning for all my dog's grooming needs. Thank you for taking such great care of my pup! 🐶❤️
Third attempt to call to update my pet’s medical records for daycare. First time, I was put on hold for over 15 minutes. Today, they actually picked up, and they said they just need to go to a computer. However, they still left me there for over 5 minutes. I have hold-PTSD from this place.
We only take our dog here for grooming because we trust this business. He gets such great care and quick service. I come here for the peace of mind that my dog will not be traumatized when we pick him up. The staff are so kind and they are very professional.
My dog Frani loves this place, and she has anxiety. Whenver we go here, she is always happy to see her fury friends. Also the staff is so sweet and always sends me pictures of her during the day.
I’ve been bringing my dog here for grooming for the past 5 +years and I’ve had a great experience each time. Each groomer is attentive and great with my pup. Highly recommend
Very disappointed to see my baby come home with such a big scab and swelling on his left-back. He was back home very exhausted and dehydrated, which is understandable for boarding 6 days and grooming before back home around 7. BUT definitely NOT OK to come home like this! I immediately called PSP after I found out, and asked them if there is anything I need to know during the boarding and the grooming. I hold the phone for 5 minutes, then they said somebody will call me back in a second. I have never received a call from PSP so far. All I want to know is what happened..
So much attention to detail! I feel so comfortable leaving our dog here. The employees love the dogs, the service is great and it is very clean. They are strict with allowing any type of aggressive dogs, so I know my dog will be safe. I love the little details, of being able to watch my dog on their webcam, and they even took photos of her and texted them to me during her visit!! Oliva and I definitely recommend Paw Sweet Paw. 10+.
Everyone is so kind and sweet. Constant updates with my dog the groomers do an excwllwnt job as well as communication. We’ve boarded before and got picture updates it was awesome! I live in HB and make the drive to irvine because I love this place so much
Michael is great with all the dogs and all of the employees seem to genuinely love each of the animals. This is the only place I’ve ever left any of my dogs where they almost seem to want to stay there instead of coming back home with me. The home is set up in a manner that caters to the animals and along with whichever other pets might be staying there at the time, Michael’s dog Bella is such a sweetheart and you can rest assured your dog has a friend with them at almost any time whether they prefer another 4-legged friend or a human companion to pass the time while they eagerly await your return. I would recommend Golden Days to anyone who needs somewhere safe and fun for their pet to stay whether you’ll be gone for just the day or you’re taking a long vacation but can’t bring your pet along with you. Give this place a try whether you need it or not, your pet will love it and will thank you for taking them somewhere special.
Michael is fantastic! He was very professional and detailed which I appreciated. When we dropped our pup off he was very welcoming and instantly gave so much attention to our pup. Our pup instantly loved him. When we picked him up I knew our pup had a good weekend because he didn't pee all over himself and did not look fatigued and famished as he usually presents after being boarded. He truly looked happy. I was able to maintain contact with Michael throughout the stay asking how our pup was and he sent pics which made me happy. We have used Michael/Golden Days many times and feel blessed to have found such a wonderful care giver for our baby. Highly recommend.
Michael took such great care of my beloved senior cat! Everything was purrfect when I returned home and I really loved the little status activity notes he left every day! I highly recommend Golden Days Pet Services.
I've been using this service for over a year. I can always count on Michael even for last minute requests. I love the report card he leaves behind and the videos describing the details of his visit and interaction. My dog loves him. The best ever!!!
Michael is very knowledgeable with dogs and takes great care of my pup when I’m away. Hes always happy to go back.
loved Getting picture updates. The only thing I did not like is when we picked up our dogs they reeked of urine. They smelt so bad It was nauseating.
Tanya was available to care for my dogs on Christmas Eve with very little notice, allowing me to spend the evening with my nearby family. The dogs were safe and happy. Tanya was delightful.
Every time we leave town, we know we can trust them to take care of our Lily. She’s always so excited when we are dropping her off. Great Doggie Daycare!
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Super care, lots of love, total reliability. Our little dogs are so happy at Tanya's--and so our we, the owners.
Tanya and Mike where so sweet to our Doxie. Nice big backyard to explore. I loved the home feel our sweet pup got. Thanks Tanya!
Been taking my husky here and she loves it. Great people. Very nice and humble. Always willing.
My family and I are so grateful to have found Sylvia! She just watched our one year old chihuahua for 5 nights and we couldn’t be happier. Our girl, Ivy takes some time to warm up to new people and within a day, Sylvia had her walking on a joint leash with another dog and living her best doggie life. She bonded with Sylvia and her daughter and I feel comfortable leaving her with OC Pet Nurse next time we are out of town. Thank you for your patience, kindness, and amazing pet knowledge, Sylvia!
Sylvia was absolutely amazing with our two-year-old cat, Parker. I was anxious about leaving him while we were on vacation, but Sylvia quickly put my mind at ease. She not only took excellent care of Parker but also went above and beyond by sending regular photos and videos, so we knew he was in great hands. Her genuine concern for Parker’s well-being was evident, and she even offered helpful suggestions to improve his care. Unfortunately, we've recently moved out of the area, so we’re no longer able to use her services, but we highly recommend Sylvia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!
We did extensive research and visited several providers before using the services of OC Pet Nurse. We selected Sylvia to board our Border Collie as we felt that the attention and services provided were the closest to the experience that our dog has at home. It was important to us that our dog had a "family" environment, minimum of two walks per day and human supervision. Sylvia also provides daily photos and videos as well as a brief status of how our dog is doing. We wholeheartedly recommend her.
OC Pet Nurse Sylvia handled our rowdy boxer puppy with care! She will be our new puppy sitter going forward. We had a great meet and greet first and she got to know our family and out puppy's needs. So far we have had pet sitting at Sylvia's home for a very long Disney day. Then we did a 3 day stay for a work conference. It was so much easier to leave her at their safe home environment and we got pics throughout the day to know she was having fun and getting tired. I wish we knew Sylvia when we had our older boxer before he passed, as she would have been very familiar with his complex medication regimen. We will definitely board our puppy here if we need to go out of town. When she gets older, we would hire Sylvia for walks as well. Sylvia had some great training suggestions for us as well. Highly recommended pet sitting and boarding from OC Pet Nurse!!
I am SOO lucky I found Sylvia!! I was taking a week long trip and was nervous to leave my dog at a regular boarding (I've had bad experiences before). But Sylvia's place was AMAZING!!!! Her family is incredibly welcoming and they are all so sweet to their pet guests . I received multiple pictures and videos of my dog every day to let me know how he was doing. Above all else, Sylvia looked out for my pet's health. She made sure that the other dogs were friendly with my dog and if one was ever aggressive, she would make accommodations to avoid any incidents. After the full week, my dog is in perfect health and had so much fun playing with the other doggies and her kids! Sylvia is a hidden gem! The absolute best!
Sylvia is WONDERFUL!!! We are able to travel with peace of mind knowing that Sylvia is providing loving and great care for our two dogs. Finding Sylvia has definitely been a blessing to our family! She is knowledgeable, kind, and reliable; and you can tell that she genuinely loves animals! She is very loving to the dogs and genuinely cares about their best interest. Plus she even watches our tortoise as well :) She sends pictures regularly, spoils them with healthy treats, takes them for walks, and cares for their overall wellbeing. Plus, she's a very nice, warm, and honest person! Sylvia is gifted at what she does, and we are so thankful for her!
When I needed a day and night- always present dog sitter I was lucky enough to have OC pet nurse recommended to me. I found I could count on Sylvia de la Para to treat my dog like she was a new member of their family. The dog was played with, taken on walks, and carefully fed and watched. Sylvia was very careful to try to follow any instructions I gave Her about the dog. She brought years of experience caring for people’s pets and her experience as a Vet Technician to reliably and kindly taking care of my pet.
To sum up Sylvia's service in one word: wonderful!!! I met Sylvia through my community chat group when my puppy was barely 5 months old. I was looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to watch my puppy because a number of dog sitters I had worked with just didn't work out too well. The benefit of having your dog in Sylvia's care: - socialization - exercise and stimulation - and a lot of TLC ** And Sylvia is a trained veterinarian nurse ** My puppy loves Sylvia's two cats (adorable by the way) and her children (adorable that goes without saying). I felt having my puppy spending time in a family with children and pets was very important for her development, and Sylvia's family was perfect. Don't just take my word for it. Check it out for yourself. I trust my puppy in Syliva's care and looks forward to the updates I get. Whether I was away for weeks or just at work, I can relax knowing my puppy in good hands.
OC Pet Nurse is the absolute best! I have too many stories to list of Sylvia helping me out in a bind, giving me training advice, taking my dog to the vet, doing overnights, and offering a wealth of information about all things animals. Sylvia and her family have the biggest hearts, love animals, are so kind. Sylvia has been helping us for almost 2 years now. We’re lucky to know them!
We are so thankful for finding OC Pet Nurse!! We moved to the area recently, and were looking for someone to take care of our fur baby with love when we go out of town. Sylvia and her lovely family welcomed our pug into their home and he LOVED staying with them. (I'm not sure he wanted to come home!) Her updates, photos and videos throughout our trip reassured us that he was being well taken care of (and a little spoiled :) Thank you!
We love Gail, she is so caring and I'm always learning something new from her on how to take care if Tango. Every time we take him to Posh Pet he is so excited. Recommended.
After trying several dog care venues, Posh Pets Concierge is by far one of the smartest decisions I’ve made. My dog has been under Gail’s careful and loving care on a regular basis for almost two years. Because of Gail’s intuition, personal attention and safe environment, my dog has evolved into a socially comfortable, less fearful and happier dog. She is also better behaved from the exercise and stimulation she receives through structured dog walks, dog park interaction, and backyard playtime. (My dog loves Gail’s backyard!) Gail is trustworthy, easy to work with and reliable. I can trust her in my home as much as I trust her to make decisions about my dog’s health. Having a dog is an important part of my life. My schedule makes this impossible. Fortunately, Gail does.
Posh Pets Concierge - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Gail has been watching our girl since she was a puppy. Gail is kind, caring, loving, patient (extremely patient!) and very professional. She sends pictures and videos and keeps us updated on how the day is going while our girl is with her. She keeps her active and provides lots of opportunities for playtime. When our girls sees her, she is so excited knowing she gets to go have a good time and that is invaluable to us. We highly recommend Gail and her pet watching service!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Gail! She is so great with pets and my dog absolutely loves her! We have used her for doggie day care, boarding and trips to the dog park. Each time she has exceeded my expectations and it is so nice to have someone who will take care of my fur baby like I would! I would highly recommend her!
Gail is absolutely a true animal lover. Gail treats your animals as if they are her own. My dog, Precious, is a senior and the love of my life, and I trust Gail to take as good care of her as I do. I trust her 1,000,000%. I absolutely love Posh Pet’s concierge.
Gail is amazing. We have a 100lb grumpy old man dog and she went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and that we felt safe leaving him in her hands. She was very professional and responsive. We had an overnight trip (first one in a year) and Gail took him for a walks and checked in on him for us. We knew our dog was in wonderful hands.
When we decided to get a puppy we worried about what we would do when we traveled or even on occasional long days when we weren’t able to be home. I did a lot of review and found Gail Louie at Posh Pets Concierge. Gail got right back to me, answered all of my questions and right away I could sense her knowledge of puppies and felt comfortable with her immediately. We set up a trial visit in her home and our puppy fit right in. She goes above and beyond while caring for her dogs. Sends pictures, makes daily local dog park trips, takes walks and spoils with treats and even helps with some training issues. She truly loves what she does. I feel like our puppy is at a family member’s house while we are gone. I love that our puppy is in a home environment and cared for in an individualized manner while we are away. She really gets to know each of her dogs. Romey loves going to Aunt Gails and really misses his furiends when he comes home. We are so blessed to have found such a wonderful second home for our puppy. We never worry about a thing while we are away.
We had a wonderful introductory meeting. I can now plan future travel with my mind at ease.
