It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
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!
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.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
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!
March 2021 - Chris and Barbara are very special people and took excellent care of our 10 month old Maltipoo. He has stayed with them for both day care and overnight visits and I was very happy with the care they provided! I prefer that he get more attention and personalized attention at a smaller, home care setting (like Hugs) vs one of the other more commercialized dog care options. Chris and Barbara took our dog on a nice, long walk in the morning and evening. They were very flexible when our schedule changed and we needed to adjust the pick up time. And our dog came back clean, happy and tired :-) Update 4/2021 - our dog just stayed with Chris and Barbara for the past 10 days and they sent me pictures, videos and updates every day. Also got pictures of our dog sitting with them - I could tell that they truly care about him and he received lots of love in our absence. He celebrated his 1st birthday with them and my daughter was so sad that we weren’t with him. Chris and Barbara threw him a birthday party and FaceTimed with us so that we could see his party they put on - complete with birthday hats, balloons, dog cake and even a present! We were so appreciative and touched (especially my daughter)!
Hugs Pets Sittings did a truly outstanding and professional job caring for my lab Lola for overnight stays in the home-style setting we wanted for our pet. Not only was my dog cared for in a healthy and loving manner with multiple walks and much attention, but the owners also provided me with photos and and video updates throughout my trip so I could see how well Lola had adjusted to her new environment. Another bonus is Hugs Pet Sitting also allowed me to cancel a reservation 5 days prior due to a emergency hospitalization of a family member during the busy holiday season. Their understanding and compassion shows a business that really cares for its customers.
We were very fortunate to have found this place as we were looking for boarding for our furbabies. We love the fact that they get to roam freely and have access to indoor and outdoor space; it was the perfect home away from home for them. Chris and Barbara were very caring and we knew they were in good hands while we were out of town! We enjoyed all the daily check-ins and I know Kona and Milo look forward to their next visit! They really enjoyed their walks and playing with their furry friends!!!! Thank you again Chris and Barbara, you both provide a great environment for our pets!!
I've had our two dogs, Penny and Sidney, staying at Hugs Pet Sitting for 2 years now. When I first met Barbara and Chris in their home to discuss our needs, I was struck at how their house was 100% tailor-made to have dogs as guests. To have our dogs in a home environment with a limited number of dogs per day, tended to by TRUE dog-lovers who treat your dogs as if they are their own, is a dream come true. The first year, we had a major home remodel going on, and couldn't have our dogs underfoot with workers going in and out (open doors) and dangerous materials strewn about. Five days a week our dogs got to go to "Camp Cavanaugh" and be loved and pampered by Chris and Barbara. They always went out of their way to make sure they got love and affection, or walks, or pickups or drop-offs to my house when I was in a bind...they are the most generous-hearted people who truly do care. I also 100% know that if any sort of emergency were to arise, it would be handled immediately with intelligent and informed action. Our dogs bonded with their two dogs, Yuki and Peach, for life..they truly are best friends. Their German Shepherd Yuki can at first look imposing because of his size, but he truly is a gentle giant who wouldn't hurt a flea...he is so well mannered and such a gentleman and so sweet. Their other dog Peach is exactly as her name implies...a peach! A sweetheart who loves to play and be friends. Now that we're in our second year, we meet at the park for walks (again, our dogs are BFFs), and when we go out of town, our dogs get the treat of getting to stay at what I now refer to as "their cousin's home." We thank our lucky stars every day that we found Hugs Pet Sitting. It truly lives up to its name. Barbara and Chris both work from home, so the dogs truly are tended to and taken care of. Out of this fortunate connection we've found dear friends for life too, in Barbara and Chris! Dog lovers, they are the real deal!! Your search is over...just bring them to Hugs!
I can’t tell you how pleased I was with Hugs Pet Boarding and day care! I originally had my dog scheduled to be boarded at a facility for 10 days. This weighed on our shoulders for days before we left. The thought of him inside sleeping in a kennel and only going out to play with other dogs a few times a day was agonizing!! After searching I came upon Hugs doggy daycare/boarding. This was like finding a diamond in the rough! Everything from my first contact with Chris and Barb was nothing more than professional. We had a meet and greet before our trip and I felt completely confident that this was the place for our pup. They did not disappoint!! Every day they sent us a little video clip of how much fun our pup was having. We actually were concerned that he would not want to come home with us when we came to pick him up. He was having a great time!! Everyday! I would definitely refer my best friends and family and anyone who asks for a place to bring their fur babies to Hugs!!!
Our 6 month old Viszla puppy, Maple, had such a great time at Hugs! It was so comforting to be able to leave her in a home setting and get daily pictures/videos of her activities and behavior. She was so tired out when we picked her up from running around with the other dogs and it was clear she enjoyed herself! This was our first time leaving her with someone other than our family members and it's safe to say we will definitely be using Hugs again, highly recommend!
Chris and Barbara took wonderful care of our dog over our spring break vacation. They cared about her comfort and walked her everyday while she stayed with them. We felt lucky that she was in such good and caring hands. Their place was clean and set up wonderfully for dogs to roam freely and play. They even sent us pictures and videos showing what a great time our dog was having with the other dogs there. One thing especially I would give them a shout out for is how they took some time to screen the dogs they accepted. It was great knowing that they made sure our dog would be comfortable with the other dogs there before we left her there. I wish I could give more stars than five and definitely wouldn't think twice before having her stay with Chris and Barbara again in the future!
Chris and Barbara were wonderful hosts to our 7 month old golden retriever. They were quick to communicate. They sent updates daily. They were willing to work with our picky eater and make accommodations for him. They got him out for exercise daily. He was a happy pup when we picked him up after 3 nights! We will definitely use them again. Thank you!
Hugs is absolutely the best place for your furry friends! I am beyond grateful we found Hugs. Chris and Barbara are amazing with the animals. Our fur babies, Lola and Ziggy, come home happier when they are at Hugs versus anywhere else when we are out. Hugs take wonderful care of the animals and I love how they send photos and video clips of the animals everyday. It makes me feel so comfortable knowing the dogs are in excellent hands. Chris and Barb are nothing short of attentive and loving when it comes to the fur babies. We love them!
I feel so lucky that I found Hugs Pet Sitting for my dog Maggie! She has some separation anxiety and doesn't trust new people very easily but she felt so comfortable with Chris and Barbara immediately! They send me pictures and videos throughout my trips and I can see Maggie having the best time with them and the other pups! Thank you hugs for the being the best!!
Thank you for caring for my fur baby while I took a night out. It was my first night out since I got my fur baby 5 years ago. I really loved being able to pick her up And take her home with me after the event too. I love the pictures of her and the updates on report card… I am A special Ed teacher!I absolutely loved this! Thank you 24 Hour Dog Daycare
I really enjoy bringing my dog here for the private boarding suite. He was attended to and well taken care of. I appreciate the daily report cards and pictures of my dog. Gives me such a relief and happy feeling to know and see pictures of my little fur baby doing well with the committed staff members. I definitely recommend this place and will bringing my dog back when we go on our next vacation.
People are friendly and professional. Our dog Anthony seems to really enjoy being there with his friends both doggy and human. The employees seem to enjoy their job and I believe that is why Anthony enjoys visiting.
First time here and it was a pleasant experience for my dog Kiki. She was here for 4th of July weekend and she enjoyed her time here. I got the solo dog sleepover and she enjoyed it all. Loved and taken cared by the staff, I was sent a report card every day along with lovely pictures to know how she was doing and and her progress. Excellent coming here. Love it. And 24 hr care too.
24 Hour dog daycare, was the best, It was my puppy first time there and he had such a blast playing with all the dogs, we got a report card during his visit and lots of photos, along with a very detailed description of how his day was going! I would definitely recommend! also a huge plus that they are 24 hour!
When we got our Maltese back, he was smelling so good. He was calm and relaxed. We believe that he was pampered and spoiled well during the 6 hours of TLC. The daycare is so convenient for us since we could drop off and pick up our pet at anytime. I don’t see another daycare who could be so flexible like that. We will definitely come back! 100%. We went to have a thanksgiving dinner with my family and then went to the outlet for some shopping. It was so worry free. Thank you 24 hour dog daycare for all the care you gave to our precious one.
This was our first time at 24 hour dog day care. They are accommodating and flexible with their hours and our doggie seemed happy with her time there. We loved her “report card” and the great pictures they sent us with her new friends.
Great experience since the 24 hour daycare gives us peace of mind knowing we can drop off and pick up our dog anytime. We were in SD for a wedding. The crew is professional and friendly. Highly recommended.
I've only used them 2 times so far but their prices are fair and I really like how easy it is to schedule a daycare session online, and convenient drop off and pickup times, any time of the day. I often have to travel up the 15 freeway for trips to Riverside County, so I can swing by as late as needed with no issues. Like others have said, the smell of ammonia from dog urine as soon as I opened the front door almost made me gag. It was so strong it took my breath away. Have they gone nose blind or something? I asked the girl behind the desk why it smelled so strong like ammonia, and she said it always smells like that and alot of clients think it smells good. I was perplexed by this answer, and so I asked another girl who came out to front desk area, and she said they have strict cleaning protocols and they clean multiple times a day. This is the first time I've ever used a doggy daycare or boarding facility, so I wondered if they all smell like this? My dog came from the shelter, and the shelter didnt even smell this bad, so that's saying something about how strong the urine smell is here. I didn't have time to find another alternative, so I had to leave her and hit the road. When I picked her up that evening, she smelled fresh like she had a bath. I even went back inside and asked them if she had a bath but they said no. Very odd. A week later I had to drop her off again because I would be picking her up late, but this time the urine smell was even worse. I called to check in 3 times during her stay, and each time I got the voicemail - I left a message and I didnt receive a call back for several hours - pretty unacceptable. When I picked her up, she had that same fresh scent, but with the lingering odor of ammonia in her coat. When we got home I couldn't take it, and I had to give her a towel bath. Another thing that I found strange about this place is they don't allow you to tour it and they don't allow a live video feed. What are they hiding? I asked why no cameras and they said that they allow all breeds. Do they not want someone freaking out because they see a pitbull on camera? That sounds like a ridiculous answer. Why don't you just say it's to cover your butt from liability issues - at least that's honest. Combine that with the pungent urine ammonia smell, the fact you cant tour the facility or see the conditions in which your dog is staying while they are not with you, and its just too many red flags for me. I'm going to try some other day care places. I'm kind bummed because otherwise I really like the convenience of the hours and everything else about the place. I don't know if there's decomposing urine trapped in the walls or under the flooring, but they really need to find the source, cut it out and remove it, and then waterproof it so urine cant soak through and get trapped to decompose like this again. It can't be healthy for the respiratory system of the people that work there, let alone for the dogs! RESPONSE TO OWNER RESPONSE: I checked my phone logs and it jogged my memory - I did receive a response to my voicemail, therefore I updated my review and clarified a few things. 1, 2 or even 3 hour delay in a return call is ok - taking that many hours tells me you were over booked or under staffed. According to reviews, the smell issue has been going on for several years, and you give the same answer to everyone who comments on it - I guess you're in no hurry to solve it. I have since used another doggy daycare, and can confirm this smell is not normal. Remote access live feeds with multiple high resolution cameras cost about $5000 max and shouldn't raise your costs if you host it on your own server. For transparency, you should consider one and it would negate the need for facility tours. A recorded virtual tour is pointless because the things people want to see are not shown, such as how truly clean it is, how many dogs are there on any given day, staff-per-dog ratio, etc. This would be solved with a live feed camera.
I'll cut right to the chase before the longer review. We all love our dogs. We're protective of them. When we can't be the ones to care for them, we need someone who we can trust. That's not easy! Trust is definitely earned when it comes to the lives of our pups. This place is 100% my go to, trusted dog day care in San Diego. Fair pricing, great package options, and most importantly, Coral LOVES going here. She always walks out exhausted but happy and gets excited to walk back in for her next stay. I recently moved to San Diego and have to travel for work occasionally and needed a dog day care/sitter. I was fortunate to find 24 Hour Dog Daycare! Coral is a 1.5 year old pup with ALL the energy and loves socialization from humans and other dogs. She has such a good time here and gets really excited to walk into the building (a good sign that she genuinely enjoys her time there). They have at least one person on watch at all times to ensure no puppy fights break out and ensure the pups are well taken care of. I love the Report Card feature they use in which they send you a daily update on 1) how the pup is doing, 2) how they are interacting with the other dogs and humans, 3) if they've eaten, drank, and gone potty, and 4) PICTURES! I love the pictures. You have the option to do a social stay or private stay. Coral is really well socialized and thrives in a pack so I've always opted for social where she gets to play with other pups all day. You can also leave your pup with their food or choose to use the daycare provided food at a small cost per meal. I love how tired Coral always comes home. She obviously loves it and I love it for her. For as long as I am in San Diego, this is the only place Coral is going!
We love Dogtopia! And so does our pup! He can't wait to go each day. He loves playing with his fur friends and is sad if he misses a day. We love all the workers! They are so nice, caring, attentive to details, and love our pup! We couldn't ask for a better place to care for our pup. Thank you!
The people that work there really care about the doggies, and they're super friendly. My dog has separation anxiety, but I think she likes it there. It's also clean. My baby comes home clean - no dirty fur or feet.
I recently took my dog to Dogtopia, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making sure every pup feels welcome and loved. The facilities are clean, spacious, and filled with fun activities, providing a safe environment for my furry friend to play and socialize. I love the daily webcams that let me check in on my dog throughout the day. It gives me peace of mind to see how much fun he’s having with other dogs! The variety of services they offer, like grooming and training, is a huge plus. Overall, Dogtopia is a fantastic place for dog owners looking for quality care and a great social atmosphere for their pets. Highly recommend!
Amazing staff - so kind and caring. My pup would stare out the window in the mornings waiting for them to open so she could go in and play with her friends (BFF’s and humans). If she couldn’t make it in due to illness they would call and check in on her. And while watching her on the dog cam made me (and my office mates) smile throughout the day, nothing was better than getting a random goofy photo texted over. A huge bonus is Spatopia - she was good with baths and nail trims, neither of which she remotely tolerates at home. Kalani absolutely loves her Dogtopia family and we miss going there.
My dog Rudy loves coming here!! I get to see what’s he doing on the webcam during the day, so I always know he is being well taken care of. The staff is wonderful, very caring. Rudy even got a report card his first week, he did great💕
I’ve been taking my incredibly anxious pup here for daycare and boarding and cannot recommend them enough! They are incredibly attentive, send photos during boarding to let me know how much fun he’s having, and incredibly responsive. They will even do a check-in call sometimes to see how he’s doing after boarding. Highly recommend!
My fur baby loves Dogtopia ! He goes there sometimes just for a play day and I’ve also boarded him for up to 11 days at a time. The staff are caring and genuinely loved dogs and they even sing him his morning song when he stays overnight to keep things consistent in his life, I can’t say enough nice things about Dogtopia Miramar . Send me photos and videos of him regularly and I can also watch him anytime I want on the WebCams
Everyone was kind and Courteous. My dog clearly liked everyone. He can sometimes shake when I first pick him up from his last place but here he just was very excited to see each employee as we were preparing to pay and leave. Made me feel really good! He also was groomed while there and clearly felt handsome ☺️
Staff are very friendly and obviously love their jobs! App is very convenient to book services (day care, boarding and grooming) and they offer webcams so you can check in on your pup. :O) All the dogs I observed looked like they were having a blast!
Our shiba inu Ivy has been going to Dogtopia Miramar for a year now and she absolutely loves it. I know she loved it because she never looked back and never wants to come home. We love watching her on the webcam and seeing how happy she is and the staff are always so sweet to her. Even when I boarded her there for the first time I was so nervous but she never had any problems always looked happy. Ivy will continue going to Dogtopia weekly it’s some of the best money we’ve spent on her since we got her. It keeps me and her happy. So grateful for everyone there.
We love Best Friends Forever Pet Care! We require two daily visits, plus administering medication. It's no problem for Tanya. In addition to all of the good care, she takes the time to play with our cat and give him some attention. Also, our cat is very shy around people. He warmed right up to Tanya. When she comes over, he runs right out to see her. That is the only recommendation I need.
I would like to tell you of my wonderful experience with Tanya Rambo and her Best Friends Forever Pet Care Service. When my elderly parents' dog "Albert" developed diabetes and needed insulin injections twice a day we didn't know what we were going to do. Poor eyesight and other medical conditions made it impossible to manage his care. I contacted Tanya and she agreed to help---and she has! Every day,twice a day, seven days a week she appears like clockwork to administer his medicines. She is so organized, pleasant and caring. We counted on her and she was always there for us. Her love and concern for all animals is very obvious. We appreciate her reliability and professionalism. Just can't say enough positive things about Tanya. Your pets will be in the best of care with her. Carmel Mountain Ranch
Best friends has been great. Tanya has been taking care of our dog since 2008 when we moved to San Diego. She takes our dog on nice long walks, makes sure he has shade and water. We have trusted in our home and with our most important family member "our dog " :). I recommend her to many friends
Tanya at Best Friends Forever Pet Care has been pet sitting for us for 7 years and is the best. She is super reliable, loves our dogs so much (and everyone's dogs), and takes the best care of them while we are gone, always giving us updates throughout our trips. If you need pet sitting or walking And want your pets to be home (and not in a kennel!) I highly recommend her!!!!
Tanya Rambo has been taking care of our cat, Baby, for more than 5 years. She is consistently reliable, responsible and genuinely cares about our cat. She went out of her way to alert us about the recent spate of fires when we were out of town and helped us develop an evacuation plan for our cat. We highly recommend Tanya for pet sitting. Susan and John, May, 2014
I have never met this person or taken care of their fur baby.
Jennifer is an absolute gem! She has been taking care of our cat for almost 4 years on every holiday and vacation as we travel quite a bit. She has a wonderful touch with animals (not only with our cat, we have seen her with dogs too), you can tell that she truly loves being around them. We know she will take care of our cat as well as we would. Our siberian kitty loves her, it almost makes me jealous :-) We receive pics and videos of our cat while on vacation and we get a kick of Jennifer's descriptions of the cat's shenanigans. When we are back we find her beautifully groomed, with nails clipped and looking very happy. We have complete confidence in Jennifer and are so very glad and thankful we found her.
I love Jennifer, and more importantly our Kitty Scooter loves her too! Jennifer is very reliable, she returns calls and text messages in a timely manner, and has gone above and beyond what you would expect from a pet sitter. She brings in mail, and has gone to the pet store for me when I didn't have time to before leaving town. We have used Jennifer's services for years now, and we so appreciate her being available when we need her to feed and love our Scooter Kitty!
Jennifer is amazing! She has been watching my 2 Rottweilers for almost 4 years, since they were puppies. She has such a wonderful way with animals,,they just love her and are super happy to see her. She is a true pack leader, training them to be the best leash walkers! They never pull anymore,walking right beside me. When I travel she stays here and when I come home the house is cleaner than when I left it and the dogs are freshly groomed and smell great! She sends nightly texts and pictures and I never worry about them. She's a gem!
Jennifer is a gem. She has cared for our almost 3 year Aussie for the last 2 1/2 years. She has stayed at our house, exercised a very active dog, and given him such loving attention. Tux always loves seeing her and going with her. I haves called Jennifer several times at the last minute, and she has always helped me out. She has come to our home early in the morning, and stayed late at night, based on our flights times. Jennifer is the best of the best.
Jennifer is the only person that I would have stay with my cat when I travel. She truly is an animal person. I never worry a bit while I'm away. I get daily pictures or videos. You can tell that this is not just a job for her but a passion. My cat comes running in when she hears her voice. I never get the "cold shoulder" from my cat when I get back home. She thinks her good friend has been staying with her. When I come home my cat is always clean, nails trimmed and my house is always cleaned up. It's nice not to worry about your precious ones while you travel.
I've used Jennifer as the go to for my two Dogs for about the last 10 yrs and have recommended her to many of my friends and others for their pets. I don't think there is another quite like her as many people have got into this business just for the money and not for the love of animals. First and foremost she has a true love for all animals and they really take to her. You will not have to worry as she will send you nightly videos or pic's whatever you want. Every time I return from my trip my Dogs are freshly washed and brushed and the house looks better than when I left it and no poop in the backyard. I've heard nightmarish stories from friends and colleagues who have had their dogs in the care of pet sitters only to come home and find their dogs looking very disheveled and the house tore up. Again, she is a true animal lover and the very best at what she does!
Jennifer has been taking care of my beloved Shih Tzu for nearly five years. My little dog means the world to me and I would not trust anyone besides Jennifer to walk and care for her while I am away. Jennifer also walks my mom's dog. Gemma (Shih Tzu) and Bingo (Bichon Mix) adore her. She understands animals and their unique personalities. Gemma and Bingo are both handfuls and Jennifer is so patient with them. I highly recommend her services to loving pet owners. She will treat your animal like family.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jennifer recently and couldn't be happier with her level of service. Whenever she needs to check-in on my 17 year old Devon Rex, I'm completely confident that he's in good hands and is being well taken care of. Jennifer is not only a devout animal lover but also a total professional. I highly recommend her for any pet-sitting needs.
Jennifer is the best pet sitter ever! Kind, loving, dependable, responsible - she goes above and beyond for each animal, treating them like her own. I wouldn't leave my dog with anyone else, and I can go on vacation with peace of mind, knowing that she is with Jennifer.
Jennifer has been taking care of my cats for 10 years and I have full trust in her abilities as a pet caregiver. My cats adore her and she gives them so much love and care that I need never worry about their well being. It's true that she takes care of your animals like you would!!! AG Ehrenberg
Waggy Tails Pet Care is a great sitter, she did an amazing job taking care of my dog Ernie. I’ve used her several times now and she always does a great job. She keeps me up to date and even sends photos of my pup. I definitely recommend her to everyone and will book with her again whenever I need it. THANKS A LOT!
Roseanne looked in on my cat every day for over a week to ensure he was safe, had his meds, and was doing well after an operation. She sent updates each day whilst I was overseas so I could not only read about how he was, but also see a picture of him. I felt very safe in entrusting her with my pet and my house in my absence.
George was excellent with our dog Sebastian. We received videos and photos every day, and knew our dog was in good hands. While we were away, we would have normally been worried about our dog, as he is old and has a heart condition. However, we were confident with Waggy Tails Pet Care, and knew that our pet was receiving the best treatment while we were away.
Roxanne really cares about the dogs she watches. Our dog gets so excited as we approach Roxanne’s home, so we know she enjoys her visits. She is very accommodating with last minute requests, which we seem to have frequently. Our dog loves playing with her dog as well.
Binky loved her day at waggy Tails pet care. It is obvious that Roseanne loves dogs. She makes them comfortable and at ease and they seem very happy. She even got Binky trained in basic obedience training which was amazing. The best part is that she only takes a few dogs so they get individual care. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and using as my regular sitter!
Highly recommend Waggy Tails! I’ve been taking my pup to Roseanne for almost 3 years and never had a problem. Price is reasonable, and my dog is very fond of Roseanne. My dog is anxious and doesn’t warm up easily but Roseanne is really good at caring for pets so my dog warmed up quickly. She also sends pictures to keep me updated on how my pup is doing, without me asking. I will continue going to Roseanne for doggy day cares for years to come!
If I could give Waggy Tails pet care beyond Five Stars I would. Roseanne is amazing!! She is gentle, kind, and loving person. We spent the Holidays with Family and had to leave our boys with her. Not only did Roseanne give them a great home but also all the love and attention they needed. She kept us in informed, sent us pictures she is amazing. I have used Waggy Tails Pet Care in the past and will continue to do so because of the Trust and Love she offers. Thank You Roseanne for taking care of our furry children!!
We are happy with Roseanns care of our little dog. She offers affordable, in-home pet care for smaller dogs, and every time she watches our dog I feel safe and confident, knowing that she is with Roseanne service. When we pick our dog up, even after extended stays, our dog comes back happy and relaxed. We would definitely recommend Roseanne.
Rose is an amazing animal caretaker! She has years of experience and it shows. Rose is very professional, honest and full of love for all the animals. Rose not only was able to look after my pets on a super short notice (which made my unexpected trip out of town so much easier) she also went above and beyond to make sure they stayed on their routine. Her knowledge of animals and her demeanor with my fur babies is greatly appreciated. She was a great communicator and problem solver. I definitely felt at ease knowing she was looking after my pets. I highly recommend her as your go-to pet sitter if you are looking for someone consistent & reliable. She is the pet whisperer 😋
I recently had Roseanne watch my dog at her house for a couple days. She took great care of my dog. I appreciated the regular updates, which made me feel better about being away. She was also very flexible with scheduling the dropoff and pickup. Roseanne seems like a very caring and attentive person with pets.
Update—We have been using Divine Pet Care since 2015 We could not be happier with the service they provide. Karen and Elias take very good care of our babies. We wholeheartedly recommend them.
Ren and Eli have taken care of our two dogs, Brownie & Fudge, daily for over a year. Our dogs absolutely love them. They have been incredibly professional, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Without Divine Pet Care there are many vacations and getaways we could not attend. I highly recommend the Divine Pet Care team.
Karen and Eli were both wonderful in looking after our kitties for over 2 weeks! We were worried of leaving them alone for such a long period of time but Divine Pet Care did such a fantastic job, I think the kitties would have preferred it if we had extended our trip! Karen and Eli were both very friendly, responsive, professional, reliable and detail oriented! They sent us daily updates and photos and we will definitely use their services again in the future. Thank you for such a wonderful service!
We LOVE Divine Pet Care!!!! My husband and I have used them for several years and really I wouldn't trust anyone else but Karen & Elias with our pup while we are away. They are friendly, professional, reliable, and most importantly, Zoe loves them! Karen is super knowledgable in veterinary medicine, which makes us feel even more at ease when we're away. If you're looking for a pet sitter you can trust, look no further!
We have been with Karen at Divine Pet Care for over 10 years. She was a great resource as we cared for our elderly Great Dane in her last years and we trusted her absolutely. Our cat, who didn't like anyone, actually seems to look forward to her visits. Our current dog loves to hang out with both Karen and Eli. It is so wonderful to have peace of mind, knowing that our dog is in such good hands when we are away. Karen has sent us some amazing photos over the years of our pets. We are so thankful that we found Divine Pet Care!
My wife and I have used Divine Pet Care for several years now and would never settle for anyone else. Karen and Elias are completely professional, prompt, responsive, reliable, friendly, and completely at ease with our four-legged family members. They have conscientiously followed specific instructions when our pets have had health or medication considerations, and they are extremely intuitive and knowledgable about the care of animals. Our "kids" love them. Given all of this, plus Karen's depth of experience in veterinary medicine, we could not feel more secure and at ease when we're away. Simply Divine!
Divine Pet Care is the best! Karen always takes great care of my dog and he loves her! I highly recommend Divine Pet Care and I would not go to anybody else! As soon as she arrives to pick up my dog, he is already at the door excited to go on his walk and hang out with all his friends! Karen also sends a lot of pictures so I know my dog is always having fun when he’s out with her!
Highly recommended! Divine Pet Care is the best! Since our dog was just weeks old and for the last 6 years we have used Divine for all our pet sitting needs from short walks/visits to overnights while on vacation. They're always reliable, trustworthy and accommodating. Karen is very knowledgeable and simply wonderful with our dog and other pets! There has always been a piece of mind with them and knowing that our pets are safe and happy!
Karen is trustworthy, kind, reliable and always on time! Her business ethics are top notch and she will always go out or her way to accommodate the needs of your pets. I highly recommend Divine Pet Care to anyone who wants the best care for their furry family members!
We came to San Diego 3 1/2 years ago with our lab rescue named Nike. Nike is a very sweet, loving and loyal boy, but clearly he had a rough beginning and to this day is still very shy and afraid of people. I found Divine Pet Care on the Internet and really loved all the testimonials, so we decided to give Karen a try and a very special bond was born. Karen was amazing with Nike and Nike warmed up to her very quickly. As soon as you meet Karen you know she's a warm, generous and very caring person. Although we didn't see her much, she became a very important member of the family. I can't imagine trusting Nike with anyone else. I highly, highly recommend Divine Pet Care!! You won't be disappointed.
Puppy Love Pet Care is the best pet sitting/dog boarding option in San Diego. I called Puppy Love Pet Care last minute for a week of dog sitting. Not only did they cater to Rio, but also they allowed me to extend his visit for another week in even shorter notice. The team is absolutely wonderful. I will definitely be using them again. Also - they don't crate dogs and allow non-neutered dogs - amazing!
Such a wonderful experience. We left our two dogs with Randi for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing! Both of them came home relaxed with wagging tails. It’s nice to find someone you can trust.
Puppy Love is my go to dog sitter whenever I travel to visit San Diego in the spring/summer! I travel with my dog and leave him with Puppy Love for overnight boarding and doggy daycare anytime I need someone to watch them while I'm busy with work. I've also used them for walks for my dog and am never disappointed with their flexibility and how happy my dog is whenever they come home. I would definitely recommend supporting this local business!
Puppy Love Pet Care is the absolute best! My dog considers them a second family. As a boy with bad separation anxiety, finding a sitter that he was really comfortable with took some searching, but he always has a great time here and comes home happy and tuckered out. I'll never leave him with anyone else!
Puppy love was great! I recommend to everyone looking for a boarding for your pet. They took my cat in last minute where other places wouldn’t. I went out of town for 5 days and did not have to worry the whole trip! Highly recommend.
When we leave on vacation, puppy love is the only place we trust to take care of our two Aussiedoodles. We come back to healthy and happy dogs.
North County Pet Sitting provides a terrific service. Rumi is super caring and took care of our 2 cats for 2 weeks. She communicates with you everyday and send tons of pics after each visit. I highly recommend extremely trustworthy pet sitting service.
My wife and I have 2 cats, and no family here in SD. Whenever we go out of town for any extended period of time, we always give Rumi with North County Pet Sitting a call. Rumi has always been available and more than willing to care for our pets while we are gone. Each time she visits, she always sends a picture or video and lets us know how our cats are doing. We have used their services for over 3 years now, and have always been pleased with their services and care. Strongly recommend!
We have had nothing but a wonderful experience with North County Pet Sitting. It's so reassuring to know your pet is well cared for while you are away for the day. We also have them take care of our bulldog when we go on trips for a week or more. We know our dog gets loved and cared for as if she's their own. They even pick our dog up and drop her off when we get back - what service! We also love that they can be flexible when needed. I ❤️this service and highly recommend!!!
Rumi has been taking great care of my cats for over a year now. She is super reliable and even makes sure she can be available at short notice when unexpected plans come up. Both of my cats need pills and/or supplements and Rumi is awesome and diligent about ensuring they have what is required every day. Very honest and reliable - highly recommend!!
If you need someone to care of your pets I highly recommend North County Pet Sitting! We used their service two weeks ago and very pleased with them. My dogs looked happy and I felt at ease while we were on vacation.
My dog, Lily, is very shy and she suffers from separation anxiety. Rumi always puts Lily at ease with her calm and friendly demeanor. It’s clear Lily genuinely enjoys spending time with Rumi! I highly recommend Rumi for all dog sitting services, you won’t be disappointed.
Boarded our two Chags. They came back happy and clean. Pick up and drop off service. Price was much lower than other services, especially if you are looking to board more than one pet.
I’ve been using North County Pet Sitting for few years for my dogs. Very trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend their services!
Wonderful service - she helped me out with last minute dog sitting. Responsive and responsible.
Excellent job. Pets didn't even miss us!
I cannot thank Precious Petcare and my Wedding Pet Attendants (Hilary & Tory) enough!!! First of all, Leila and her staff were very easy to communicate with throughout the entire process, and they ensured that my 2 fur kids would get the best care possible for my big day. When the big day came, I felt SO comfortable with Hilary & Tory’s capabilities as ‘temporary’ dog mommas for my special day. It took such a HUGE burden and relief off of my shoulders, knowing that they were in such good hands. They were both able to keep my pups calm and happy, even with Scooter’s terrible separation anxiety! They also followed my detailed instructions to a TEE, and walked our ‘Ring Bearer’ and ‘Flower Pup’ down the aisle with no issues! They did an amazing job getting their energy out by constantly walking them around, letting them enjoy nature (they even saw a deer), playing with them, and keeping them well treated and extra cozy (Scooter was warm and wrapped in a blankie when he got chilly!). They truly watched them like hawks, snuggled them, and treated them like their own. When I saw them both with the pups (and heard nothing but amazing comments from my guests!), I knew that they were in amazing hands and I could be calm, relax, and really enjoy myself. They were also a great influence on my young pup, Millie, and her shyness around other people! We noticed such a huge improvement in Millie the day after the wedding! She was like a whole new dog. She’s so much less skittish after having the opportunity to meet with so many guests. I thank Hilary & Tory for giving her that opportunity, as it was much needed for a young rescue dog! They were stellar at their jobs —- they were punctual, kind, calm, professional, organized and dedicated. I also can’t thank them enough for the amazing photos that they sent. They are my absolute favorite photos for sure, and I’m so glad that they captured those moments for me (as the bride misses all the fun! Lol). I highly recommend Precious Petcare!!! 5 stars
We had Hannah with us for our wedding weekend and she exceeded all of our expectations caring for our maltipoo Bear! She continuously went above and beyond to make sure Bear was well fed rested and at the places she needed to be all weekend to be part of our celebrations. I was over the moon knowing Bear was in great hands for 4 days with Hannah until we came back to our hotel every day. Bear was able to join every event we hosted for our guests and I couldn’t be happier! Hannah even helped us every time photos were taken to make sure Bear was smiling & she helped coach Bear to walk down the aisle. Highly highly recommend precious pet care for your wedding or every day sitting needs!!! I wish they were closer to us in Los Angeles so we could use them on the regular :(
So happy I found precious pet care! My sister referred me & it has been incredible. At the end of the day they upload pictures of your pup as well as a detailed summary of how your pup behaved / an overall recap! Seriously can’t imagine taking my pup anywhere else! She has so much fun & gets so excited when I take her to daycare for the day!❤️ Enjoy these adorable photos of Millie and some furriends she made at daycare!
My husband and I just returned fron 6 weeks overseas. This is the first time leaving our 14 year old Calico Trixie using a pet service to visit. Our kids work and wanted someone to be with her during the week. We chose Precious Pet Care from Yelp reviews!! Not disappointed! Janna was our sitter the whole time away. She came 3 times a week. She shared pictures, communication/update and videos of how Trixie was doing. She respected our request to change Trix's ice water (spoiled kitty). Plated with her, gave her special treat! Brushed her. Cleaned her litter box. So much more. She treated her as I would have!! 🙂 Trixie was recently diagnosed with kidney disease and has specialized diet. From the start everyone Leila who helped me through the process made me feel secure and warm to their services.
I've used Precious Petcare the past few months for Doggie Daycare for my pup Cash. He always comes back happy and exhausted. This past week we were out of the country for our wedding and I felt at ease every time I received a daily update and pictures showing that he was well taken care of and enjoying himself with the other pups. Thank you Leila and the team for taking good care of my baby. We are so happy to have found this place for daycare and boarding.
We have taken our active dog, Anda, to Precious Pet Care for daycare, overnight stays, and boarding for the past few months. This is the first time that Anda has been to daycare and it is safe to say he loves its! Anda gets to play outside with all the dogs and gets lots of attention from the staff at Precious Pet Care. There is a good variety of dogs, and our dog has befriended the owner's dog. Whenever he comes home he looks very happy and is tired the rest of the day from all the play time. The staff are mindful to make sure he eats his meals and uses the bathroom regularly. They appropriately supervise to ensure he gets along with the other dogs. They also are very flexible with drop off/pick up times and communicative with us, sending daily updates with photos and videos. Most recently, he spent the holidays boarding at Precious Pet Care during our vacation. He definitely got a lot of attention, as there was a doggy holiday party with special treats, a Christmas photo shoot, and he came back with a gift bag and report card for his stay. We would absolutely recommend Precious Pet Care to anyone looking for a homey place for their dog to stay for any of the services they offer.
We booked Precious Pet Care for their wedding pet attendant service, and I highly recommend them!! We wanted to have our dog walk in the ceremony and have someone look after him at the Airbnb during the reception, but didn’t want to have any of our friends/family do it and miss out on the celebration. Precious Pet Care was the perfect solution! With everything that goes on during your wedding day, it was great to know that our dog was cared for and happy! Now I’ll be honest, our dog is not the best trained and can be very excitable, but Johnny did a fantastic job getting his energy out beforehand and keeping him entertained all day so he was comfortable when it came time for the ceremony! We got so many cute pictures with our pup too! It meant so much to have our dog with us on our big day and know he was safe and happy while we celebrated the night away! If that sounds like something you’d also want for your wedding, Precious Pet Care is the way to go!
Precious Pet Care was great in assisting us with the care of our pets Emma and Gracie on 4.02.23 - for my daughter's wedding! Leila was super helpful and responsive to our questions, and she and Ashley arrived early (before we did!) and were very attentive to Emma & Gracie during the course of the day - allowing my family to relax and enjoy this very special day! They made sure our girls were walked, fed, hydrated, entertained and calm throughout the day. They then returned them to our Airbnb, let them play outside for a bit, and made sure that they had food & water to last them until we returned. Before they left, they sent us pics of our pups relaxing at the house, which enabled us to enjoy the rest of the evening - knowing that they were safe, secure and had everything they needed. Without their awesome wedding pet attendant services, including our pups in my daughter's big day would have been next to impossible.
My dog Percy is really shy and is scared of everything and everyone. He just hides behind me whenever I take him to dog park. He takes a long time to trust a person or a dog. Leila has been phenomenal at taking care of Percy and she has helped him come out of his shell. She has been very patient and accommodating with him. She has made him a more confident and a playful puppy who can now explore the park on his own and play with dogs his size. Percy has been a part of Leila's doggie field day every week and I have been seeing drastic improvements in his behavior. All thanks to Leila! Percy loves her so much and he is so excited to see her every week. She even made this shy guy find his doggie best friends. I am very grateful that I found her and honestly, she is one of the best things that has happened to my Percy!
Absolutely loved this service for our wedding! We couldn’t imagine our big day without our pup and Leila made it all possible! She was amazing with Archie and it made the day less stressful! I couldn’t recommend Precious Pet Care more to other couples for their wedding day!
MJ truly cares about my pet. She is gentle, patient, trustworthy, and loving with him. I have been using her service for years and completely trust her with my beloved kitty.
I have been using Melanie's services for few years now and recently one my dog got very sick and I needed to travel for a day but did not want to leave my dog alone Melanie accepted my request and took care my fur babies specially Alfie. I feel comfortable leaving them in Melanie's care.
Been using MJ for a couple of years now to watch our cat whenever we are out of town. Always does a great job. Love the photos they send whenever they visit.
The Team has been great in working with our dog's fear anxiety around other dogs. They are patient and calm and have helped our dog gain more confidence.
MJ is great, she definetly knows animals, my cat already likes her. She listened to what I had to share with her about Jacob and his needs. She has good insights as well. I am very happy we were referred to her.
MJ cared for our dog Clem for years, coming over to our house when we were out of town. She now walks our Shepherd Dior who is kind of a wild one. MJ gets along fine with him and handles him well.
We have used MJ’s services since April 2022, and are relieved to be able to find a sitter who not only gives our dogs unconditional love, but is beloved by our pups! Our dogs cannot see MJ without getting a case of happy tails and the wiggles! MJ is a very professional sitter and she is wonderful with our dogs. We don’t ever have to worry about them when we leave them with her, because we know they’re in great hands. MJ checks in with us to let us know that they’re doing well, and she follows all of the instructions that we leave for her. MJ and her team will always have a special place in our heart. We entrusted MJ with walking our pups down the aisle at our wedding and she was able to get them there on time and they did beautifully! We will definitely continue to use MJs services and recommend her!
MJ is amazing!!!!! My Cat doesn't like anyone, but he LOVES MJ. She is like the cat whisperer. Takes extra care of Peep when I'm out of town. I have used her services for several years now and wouldn't use anyone else.
I am so happy to have found Pets by MJ! We have two dogs and a cat! MJ as well as her associates take great care of our fur babies. MJ provides great service, professionalism and best of all, great care of our animals! We get updates and photos with each visit. I feel like they are in great hands! I highly recommend Pets by MJ!
MJ takes care of our baby as if he was family. He goes to her place most weekdays for doggy daycare and he loves it so much that he runs to her front door when we arrive. MJ goes above and beyond making sure our Cody is healthy and happy. She lets us know if he's had diarrhea or is scratching at his ear, which gives me piece of mind knowing she is looking out for him. Cody is always happy, full, and tired when he gets home. I recommend using Pets by MJ to anyone who needs help with their animals.
