I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
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.
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Florence was a great sitter for my cat Lily. I booked her a bit last minute, as a previous sitter had to cancel, but was very happy to have her. She was reliable, prompt to respond, and sent picture updates daily at my request. Judging by the pics, Lily warmed up to her nicely and they spent some lounging time together - which is high praise from a cat! Would recommend Florence for your next sit.
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
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!
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.
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!
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 $30 per visit, 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!
Tracey's doggie daycare is simply the best, my puppy loves it and can't wait to get through the door every week, when we drop him off. It's a home from home experience for the dogs, and Tracey really cares for them as if they were her own. Then there's all the extra little things like birthday parties and photos on their birthdays, regular text updates and plenty of luxury beds for all the doggos to chillax on after they've played to their hearts content in the well equiped garden.
Our puppy loves his day at Tracey's place each Wednesday. She loves dogs and has a great set up.
Tracey was so lovely. Sent me text updates as well as pictures of my fur babies! Really put my mind at ease while being away from them. Would definitely use her services again and recommend to others.
I can always relax knowing the fur kids are safe and well loved while we are away ...you are a gem and I highly recommend Proactive Pets to everyone
All my pet people friends love this place.
Owner is lovely. My dog always has a great time I know cause he sleeps so well.
Really looked after our dogs, couldn't have been happier.
Lovely with the dogs and easy to deal with
Our experience with the team at Royal Rover has been great. We have used them frequently over the last couple of years. Being able to see where your dog will be, has been a relief. They are very caring for our anxious girl, she was excited when I dropped her off this time and when our older girl was still with us, we received a call to check if we were aware of a sore they had noticed (which we were), showing their care and attention. Love the updates on Facebook putting us at ease seeing our beautiful girl so content. We recommend them and appreciate them!
We always take our dog to Royal Rover when we go on holiday or home renovations. They have always been so accomodating letting us see where he will be staying when we drop him off, posting pictures and video of him playing with new friends and even giving us updates when we phone in if we’re feeling a little dog sick on a trip. He has always come back healthy and happy as he normally is. He even gets excited seeing Matt, Debbi and the other lovely carers if we drop him off or use the Pet Taxi to pick him up.
Cannot recommend this kennel highly enough - Both our dogs (one old and one young) were housed together, played together, came home healthy and happy and the staff here regularly updated Facebook with photos of them (which was great - 6 weeks was the longest I’ve been away from them in recent years) Nothing was too much trouble - I requested in the last week of their stay that they get groomed a day early so we could pick them up early morning - that wasn’t an issue. Matt also helped the day they were dropped off by organising the taxi last minute. Would not take my dogs anywhere else or trust anyone else with them while we holiday! Thanks team!
Can't speak highly enough of Royal Rover. Looked after our two German Shepherd dogs. They came back to us happy and healthy. Thankyou so much. Will definitely be back.
I have had the pleasure of using Royal Rovers Boarding Kennels now for 3yrs for my dog Shy, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment we arrive, it is clear that this facility prioritizes the well-being and comfort of the pets in their care. The staff at Royal Rovers are exceptionally professional and caring. They take the time to understand my dog's temperament and ensured that all of her needs were met during her stay. I highly recommend Royal Rovers Boarding Kennels to anyone in need of a reliable and loving boarding option for their pets. Their dedication to providing a safe and enjoyable environment truly sets them apart.
My doggies have just arrived home via pet taxi after 10 days away for the first time from home 🏡 I am extremely happy grateful for the love and attention my fur babies received, whilst staying at Royal Rover, I got regular uploads on video and photos of them all having a wonderful happy time, I look forward to booking again knowing my fur babies are looked after so very well! They were also bathed before drop off smelling absolutely amazing and squeaky clean! Highly recommended 💯 Sharon Steve Costen Camden Park
We have been using Royal Rover since 2008 for boarding our dogs. Over the years we have had a few dogs that have stayed there and they have always loved their time with Debby, Matt and the staff. The care given is fantastic and our dogs have always returned home to us as healthy and happy as they were when we dropped them off. I wouldn’t recommend or trust another kennel with our pets. I picked up our 3 dogs on Monday this week and it was fabulous to see them so happy. The Facebook photos and videos they post speak for themselves and show how well cared for the animals are. It was very reassuring whilst we were away to see our dogs being played with and taken for walks whilst staying with Debby & Matt.
We have boarded our dog at Royal Rover during the last 4 years on numerous occasions for periods up to 3 months. They have always treated him as part of their family, and has been well cared for and happy when we pick him up. They usually have him washed before we get there. We are able to monitor him through the posts that are on the Facebook page, and we see him going for walks and playing with the handlers and other dogs. We would not hesitate to recommend Royal Rover Kennels, Matt and Debby to board you fur babies. We travel past a number of other kennels on the drive to Royal Rover, and do so because we are so happy with the past treatment. Our boy will be with them again in the future. Thank you Matt, Debby and staff
Our anxious dog stayed at Royal Rover for a week while we were on holiday. We saw lots of social media photos of him having a great time while we were away. When we picked him up, he was beautifully clean, and smelt great! He was also very happy and calm. We will definitely use Royal Rover again😊 …
We left our German Shepherd, Amstafff and Husky in the care of Debby and Matt for four days in late July. This was the first time the dogs were boarded but one of them was actually adopted from Royal Rover. We filled in the booking forms as accurately as possible to give the staff a clear indication of what to expect and the only issue when leaving them was the thought of being apart... When it came time to pick up we were walked through the newer shared enclosures in case we wanted to use these in future. The dogs were washed and ready and we had a lovely time catching up with Debby and Matt. Despite not being close to home, would not think twice about returning to Royal Rover
Madi is the best with our labradoodle "Jersey". She has anxiety issues but Madi has been great with her and Jersey gets excited to go to puppy day-care. Trust me it’s a beautiful place and you wont be disappointed. It's a 5 star resort for dogs.
We were so grateful to discover Pawfect Pet Resort. We felt comfortable leaving our young anxious border collie with Madi for a week of boarding. Madi tailors the experience to suit your pup needs. With lots of updates we knew our pup was in good hands. Couldn’t recommend Madi more and would not hesitate to send our pup again in the future. Thank you Madi!
I highly recommend Pawfect pet resort! Madi was so caring with our old pup Caesar, he boarded at Pawfect for 4 nights. He has special needs and Madi made sure he was comfortable and involved in daily activities tailored to his needs. Thanks, Madi, we are so appreciative of your attention and care.
Pawfect Pet Resort (Madi) is definitely your go to for pet care be it either visits to your home for walking/feeding/check in or at her amazing facility in Mulgoa. You can be assured that your dogs will be extremely well looked after. Our Moodle attends Doggy Day Care regularly and both our Kelpie and Moddle have boarded there. Madi listens and genuinely cares for your dogs as if they are her own! Her constant updates on how they are going throughout their stay is also second to none and very reassuring. Pawfectly amazing 🤗
Lochie always gets so excited when Madi comes to pick him up for his doggy day out. She is the dog whisperer of the doggy world ❤️
My 2 furbabies love going to the doggy day-care, there is so much space to run around and socialise with other dogs. I know they are very well looked after and get plenty of exercise while I'm at work. Highly recommend
From the first time i reached out to Madi about her services she has been nothing but amazing. She answered all my questions so quickly and professionally. Definitely recommend Pawfect pet resort.
10/10 Jayden and Justin are amazing. We left our boy with them for 10 nights when we went overseas. He was spoilt! I got photos sent to me throughout the day everyday! He was so well cared for! I would 100% recommend and so happy I found someone genuine and that I can trust with my fur baby 🫶🫶🫶 …
Fantastic place to stay for your fur babies! Jayden is incredibly kind and truly cares about the well-being of your pets. He has been taking great care of our timid Bella, who can be quite anxious in new environments, and has done an amazing job of making her feel comfortable and happy during her stay. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter ☺️
A brilliant place for our furry friends! Jayden and Justin don't just look after, but love and care for your pets. My puppy dives into their arms each morning he visits and they share updates and photos throughout the day to share his adventures. I am so glad I found this business and these beautiful people!
I brought my 5 month old toy cavoodle here for a weekend stay as we were travelling and couldn’t take him with us. At first my puppy was so scared and anxious, but Jayden & Justin did a phenomenal job helping and accomodating him until he felt safe. They worked patiently with him, offering treats and toys until he was feeling safe and happy to play around and explore. I would highly recommend the quality and care of the services provided by Jayden & James.
Happy Paws Daycare Service: A Pawsitively Wonderful Experience! 🐾 My dog, Draco, recently had the pleasure of staying at Happy Paws Daycare Service for four nights, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he received. Jayden and Justin, the wonderful hosts, went above and beyond to ensure Draco’s comfort and happiness. When our plans suddenly changed, we needed a last-minute solution for Draco’s care. Jayden and Justin graciously accommodated us, taking Draco in without hesitation. Their flexibility and willingness to help eased our minds during a stressful time. Throughout Draco’s stay, Jayden and Justin kept us informed with regular messages and adorable photos. It was heartwarming to see Draco playing, exploring, and enjoying his time. Their thoughtful updates allowed us to fully enjoy our time away, knowing that Draco was in good hands. Draco came back home happy, well-fed, and clearly content. It’s evident that he had a blast at Happy Paws! The cozy environment, attentive hosts, and playful companions made his stay memorable. We’re already planning Draco’s next stay at Happy Paws. Knowing that he’ll be cared for by such dedicated and compassionate individuals gives us peace of mind. Thank you, Jayden and Justin, for creating a safe and joyful haven for our furry family members. If you’re seeking a daycare service that treats your pet like family, look no further than Happy Paws Daycare Service. Highly recommended! 🐶❤️
Our boy had so much fun at Happy Paws Daycare Service. We were regularly kept updated with lots of great photos and messages. Thank you very kuch for looking after our boy.
Excellent service, highly recommended. Prompt updates and highly organised pick up and drop off. My dogs were very excited to go back. Will definitely use their services in future
I can not speak highly enough of the level of care the boys provide.They go above and beyond to cater to each pets individual needs.I highly recommend them and can assure u won’t be disappointed 🐶🥰 …
Wonderfully caring and very thoughtful carers who looked after our Buddy like he was their own- Buddy sat in a state of depression when he got home missing his new family and friends - highly recommend
