Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Summer was a very top-quality pet sitter and house sitter. She not only took excellent care of all four pets (three cats and a dog) but even achieved a very close bond with one of the cats. She went over and above the call of duty with our dog, who developed a serious skin condition while we were gone. We're so grateful that Summer was able to identify there was a problem, took the dog to the vet several times, and ended up having to apply topical medication and give pills and even keep the dog dressed in a t-shirt, which she did flawlessly. She communicated with us frequently, sending photos and updates, and the house was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we had left. She did an amazing job, knew how to handle any situation, always had a very upbeat and positive attitude, and we really enjoyed getting to know her right before we left and right after we returned. We would very very highly recommend Summer in all respects!
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 is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
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!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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 €15 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!
Thanks SO MUCH Muddy Paws for taking fabulous care of Pixie each time we go on holiday. This place has such an amazing set up with obstacles & enrichment activities for the dogs. Terry sends on brilliant pictures & videos each evening of the dogs having fun. Personally I feel pixie not only has more than enough activity which is fantastic but also has important downtime to relax & doesn’t come home completely wiped out or exhausted. I never worry. I can’t recommend this place enough.I wouldn’t mind this luxury boarding myself.
Jamie & Jules are so professional and amazing. Me and my partner left our 3 year old labradoodle Murphy in their care for 6 weeks and he had the time of his life. They are so attentive and treated Murphy exactly how we would at home. Such better experience than putting our pup in a kennel. There was no worry at all while we were away. They sent us daily updates and pictures. They paid close attention to a bump that we had shown them he had developed before we went away and they constantly checked it for us to give us reassurance. They even worked with Murphy on his leash skills something that we have always struggled with as he is such a strong dog! Murphy loves them and they are definitely who we call every time! Thank so much Jamie & Jules!
Wonderful service. Jules & Jamie truly love dogs and value the trust put into them by their clients. My three dogs had a great experience, lots of walks, cuddles, treated like family and never unsupervised in the 2 weeks they were there. I got regular photos and updates and it meant I could relax fully knowing my fur babies were happy. I have one particularly anxious dog who has never been able relax without me due to her separation anxiety and I saw videos of her having such fun! Thanks so much guys
Molly stayed at off the leash with Jamie and Jules for four nights. From the meet and greet beforehand with Jamie, I knew she would be fine. She really liked Jamie and their home. I hadn’t left her before but she settled in, got lots of walks, play time with other dogs and plenty of relaxing in their home. I received regular updates, photos and videos and could concentrate on what I had to be doing knowing she was safe and happy. It is so good to realise that there are people like Jamie and Jules who really do know and love dogs and can provide such a fantastic place to allow me to go away without a worry.
Would highly recommend "Off The Leash". Jules and Jamie are so great with dogs, and really helpful and flexible - honestly they couldn't have been nicer. Boss, our puppy, spent 2 weeks with them and was happy, safe and entertained the entire time. He is very much looking forward to his next visit 🐕🦺. Means a lot to know your pooch is in such safe hands with people who know and genuinely love dogs and caring for them! Thanks guys...
From the moment we met Jules & Jamie at our initial meet and greet, we were delighted to book Milo in for his first time away from home. He is a rescue dog, so we were anxious to put him somewhere he would feel comfortable and at home. We were put right at ease with Jamie and Jules having prior experience with rescue dogs. He spent 3 nights with them this week. We got updates and pictures everyday. Milo looked so happy and relaxed, we were afraid he wouldn't want to come home with us. We couldn't recommend Off the Leash highly enough and will not hesitate to send him back again.
Ralph stayed with Jamie & Jules for ten days whilst we all went on a family holiday recently. Ralph is a pure house dog and loves company and his snoozes on the couch. We were so worried leaving him. But we needn’t have been. He was so well looked after at Off the Leash. We got regular updates - photos and videos. He was treated like family and we can’t recommend Off the Leash enough. It’s clear they have a real love for dogs and treat them so well.
I would highly recommend Off The Leash. Jamie and Jules provide a home away from home for your pet. Harley spent 3 nights with them and was pampered from the moment she arrived. Harley enjoyed beach walks and made herself very comfy on the couch! They sent daily updates and pictures of Harley. I will definitely use this amazing service again.
Our dogs mean the absolute world to us and we were very nervous leaving them for the first time to go on holiday. The service Jules and Jamie provided was excellent and worth every cent. From the meet & greet, daily updates, 24/7 supervision, hand over and collection, everything was great. Especially because our dogs are rescued, we wanted them to feel at home and cared for, we did not want them to feel like they were being abandoned or left in a cage/crate. Jules and Jamie brought them into their home like they were their own pets, as only true 'dog-people' know how to do! And the dogs loved it too! We would be happy to leave them with Jules and Jamie of Off The Leash again, 100%. Delighted with the whole experience.
I started recommending Jamie and Julies from the meet and greet I was that impressed... my two are very enthusiastic on first meetings and they took to Jamie straight away and lay down by his feet. I wasn’t lucky enough to book on time for our holiday but they did drop in service and I received photos and videos and an update. My furries looked so happy. Which made me very happy. I’ve made sure to book in time for our next break.
Our dog is elderly and needs home comforts and attention from people when away. He has been unsettled in other kennels previously. Jamie and Jules provide a fantastic homely service where dogs are treated like their own. We got regular updates and photos of how he was getting on and we knew he was happy when collecting him. Would highly recommend Off The Leash and will definitely be using their services again whenever needed.
We’ve been taking our dog Buddy to Little Paws Hotel for every trip we go on, and we couldn’t be happier with their service! Cathy & Alan are incredibly attentive and loving, always making sure Buddy feels right at home. Every time we pick him up, he’s happy, well-fed, and clearly very well cared for. One of the standout features is their amazing, well-equipped sleeping pods. Buddy always has a cozy, comfortable space to rest, and we love knowing he’s in such a safe and modern environment. The pods are spacious, clean, and designed with dogs’ comfort in mind—it’s like a little holiday for Buddy too! It’s clear that Cathy & Alan love what they do. We can travel stress-free knowing that Buddy is in great hands. Highly recommend Little Paws Hotel to any pet owner looking for a trustworthy, caring place for their furry friends!
Our Labrador spent 2 nights at Little Paws Pet Hotel this week. Cathy was very welcoming, reassuring us that he would be well looked after. She sent little videos and updates over the few days which was so lovely as it was our first time away from him. The 'hotel' is a safe, very well set up, plenty space in his unit with an orthopaedic bed.! Couldn't ask for more. We will be back. Thanks Cathy.
I couldn't recommend Little Paws Pet hotel enough. It was Darbys 1st time dog boarding and I honestly felt he didn't want to leave when we came to collect him after a 6 night stay! Darby is a Cavalier King Charles and very timid in nature so i was apprehensive leaving him. Cathy was so good for sending on daily updates and videos which was so reassuring for us! The facilities are top class, individual spacious pods with orthopaedic beds, soothing music playing for them and immaculate facilities!
My 2 dogs Ruben and Kuro and my mom's dog Tilly were staying with Cathy and Alan at the Little Paws Pet Hotel , they were well looked after and had a great time, Cathy kept us updated during their stay, sent us messages and photos of their days. They have a fantastic set up with individual pods with orthopaedic beds. I would highly recommend Cathy and Alan as they treat the dogs as if they were there own dogs, Ruben, Kuro and Tilly can't wait to go back to see you.
Cathy looked after our two dachshunds so well, we picked them up and they were well fed, clean and happy which can be difficult to achieve at a kennels with other dogs. It is really nice to have a warm and friendly place we can trust with our pets going forward 🙂 …
I can’t praise this wonderful family enough. The place is spotless and they genuinely care for their boarders. I was nervous as I don’t like giving over my dog over to anyone. He was in great form when he got home. Sent us loads of videos of Minchie out on walks too. It was so clear he was so well taken care of. Thank you so much Cathy!
Home from home is the best description for Little Paws Pet Hotel, fantastic facilities, safe, clean and great hosts. Our Tilly loves going on her holidays to Cathy's and we can relax and enjoy ours.
We would highly recommend Cathy and her family to care for your dog. We had our 8 month old dashalier stay with her for over 4 nights where he was walked, played with, cuddled and minded like he was one of her own. For a shy dog he made loads of friends and now we can’t wait for another opportunity for him to stay again. Cathy was very good for keeping us updated about how he was getting on during his stay. We would highly recommend little paws for anyone who’s looking for a home away from home for their dog.
I would recommend this place. Cathy and her family are very friendly and caring. They went out of their way to reassure my rescue collie, who does not like being locked up and who found the pod a little threatening as a result (historical reasons). They kindly allowed her to sleep in the passage where she was happy. In addition, my other collie was super happy to have willing friends to play ball with. Thank you for understanding he also enjoys his own private space when the energy gets too loud or intense. The location is fabulous, lots of space to play, lots of nature to go walking in that is away from traffic. The pods are fabulous. I look forward to seeing Little Paws expand and grow.
Look no further ,,, ur pets well look afr ,, walks ,, playtime. Cathy( owner)such a pleasure kept us updated on our puppy Cody for 3 nites,, happy puppy ,, happy family 😀thx very much Cathy & family ,,Cody treated like a king …
Sandra is gifted when it comes to dogs. The care and love she gives is Amazing. And full of love ❤️. The Best Sandra is the best...
Sandra gives wonderful loving care to the dogs who stay with her. This year my puppy is staying for 2 weeks while I'm away. A home away from home for our doggie friends, highly recommended.
Ollie loved his new Mammy.
You haven’t used our services and you are not a customer here so what’s the purpose of this rating???
We travelled down to Killarney for the weekend and our dog stayed at these kennels. We're delighted with the service and we'll definitely be back.
Great friendly service. The dogs came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely use you again. Thank you.
We take our dogs here all the time. In the past we've no problem not going back to kennels we've not been happy with, thank god only one or two in the past. We're very pleased with the condition they come back in and the way they're looked after at Happy Dogs, large runs and access to indoor and outdoor runs. Owners are are accommodating and a pleasure to deal with.
We had our boy Gunnar here for 3 nights and he had a great time. They are really lovely here and took good care of our dog. Wouldn't hesitate to use again! Thanks so much!
We've brought our dogs here for a few years now and we wouldn't bring them anywhere else. Great value and great peace of mind for us knowing they're well taken care of. Highly recommended.
My dog had very bad case of dermatitis and, skin infection. Had to be given steroids (21 days) and antibiotics (21 days) and mite treatment. Two of my dogs were there at the same time. Smaller one probably was trying to escape, injuring himself. I have pictures from the moment dogs were picked up till first visit at my local vet. When I send a message with pictures and description of what's wrong with my dog, the only thing they are reply with was this- 👍 Two days later some man rang me and started to shout at me. At this stage Im awaiting another vet appointment to clean the skin under sedation at my local vet. My vet bill still goes up. No one tried to contact us during time they supposed to.take care of my dogs. No one basically care about them. My dog bed was filthy and smelly, both of the dogs were afraid. I had to leave my dog in there because I had to travel with my daugjter to Crumlin hospital... never again I will leave my dogs in a place like this. I will update my review once Salsa is healed and will let you guys know how did this end up. Owner of Kennels know that I wont let this go away.
Very good
Great service
