Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
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!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
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.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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.
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
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 18 CHF 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!
I highly recommend the services of Benoît who takes wonderful care of the animals. Each time I find my cat happy and less and less shy thanks to him. We receive news every day accompanied by photos and videos. I know I can leave with confidence when my cat is in his hands.
If you are looking for someone to look after your animals, I recommend CatsittingPremium and you will not find better than Benoît to look after your cats with care and love during your absence. I have already used his services twice for the care of my two cats and it is a real relief to be able to go on vacation with the peace of mind that my cats are in good hands. A cat expert, he is very professional in his work and affectionate with cats, he takes care of them as if they were his own. During the pre-visit, he listens to special requests. Every day he gives news by message with no less than ten videos and photos. He took care of my cats while respecting their environment and their habits. When I return from vacation, I find my cats in great shape and happy. It offers quality services (premium) and is always available. I can only recommend it. A big thank you to him :) Rio & Romé are already looking forward to the next vacation!
How to describe the happiness of seeing your cat so well cared for, with tenderness and love during your absence thanks to real daily reports of your feline. It seems like you're the one taking care of it and yet you've been gone for a few days. So thank you, thank you for this love shared with our little treasures and their owners. The photos are worthy of a star photographer. But it’s true, all of us are, right?! ? Especially mine! Normal right? So Benoit! Thank you!🐾💕🐈
It's been almost two years since I regularly entrusted my cat Daisy to Benoît. I can always leave with peace of mind when I know that it's Benoît who takes care of her. He is someone who is trustworthy and very conscientious, and Daisy is at ease with him (even though she is usually rather shy). Everything is top notch regarding the "practical" side (litter, food, etc.) and Benoît is also concerned about the animal's well-being and is totally involved during his visits (games, etc.). I also love the little photos and videos sent every day, it's really reassuring to know that everything is going well at home. In summary, I recommend 100%!
We really appreciated Benoit's services and advice towards our cat. We were kept informed every day, with photos and videos, of the good health of our animal. We highly recommend this cat-sitter!!
I recommend Benoît’s services. He is very caring, loves cats and has good knowledge about our friends, which is a real plus. He respects our requests and the needs of each cat. A real joy! We feel confident and serene.
For us, Benoît was a bit of a last-chance cat-sitter: after several unsatisfactory attempts with different people, we decided to leave our cats in a boarding house during our next vacation... But since we met him We have completely changed our minds. Both rigorous and attentive, he gave us news every day with numerous photos and videos. He even managed to bring one of our most fearful cats out of hiding, intrigued by the toys he brought back. In short, it greatly exceeded our expectations and it won't be tomorrow that our cats will visit a boarding house :) Thank you so much! Edit 9 months later: from now on Benoît takes care of our 2 felines every time we go on vacation. The level of satisfaction has never dropped and we never tire of the little videos he sends us daily showing our fur balls in the middle of a play session, brushing or caressing. Not to mention the small gifts he systematically leaves at the end of his stay (food, games, etc.). In summary: 5-star services. THANKS!
Looking after my two cats went very well. Benoît took great care especially of my diabetic cat Tito who needs an insulin shot. We were informed at each visit of the progress and with photos of our cats as a bonus. I highly recommend and I will not hesitate to use the services of Cat sitting again. Thank you again Benoît for your kindness and your kindness towards the cats.
This is the third time that we have called on Benoît to come and take care of our two cats Kanade and Narita during our vacation. I can only say again how Benoît is very professional and attentive to my two fleas. He completely tamed them. They both need perfectly provided daily medical care. We can leave without worries, the videos and photos confirm this. Thank you and see you soon 🐈🐈⬛
Great experience with Benoît! He gave us great advice on cat nutrition in particular, and we feel very reassured by his professionalism! The service is really great, don't change anything! Rono and Marlou will welcome you again with great pleasure!
We had been struggling to find a cat sitter in whose care we could leave our cats without worrying too much and finding Nelly has been such a relief for us. Now we can leave knowing our cats will be in very good hands! She is always reliable, professional and trustworthy.
Nelly made our holiday stress free. She was professional and responsive and our cat was well cared for. She also sent photo updates to keep us reassured. We will definitely use her services again.
Very happy with the service, communication and reliability. Nelly was wonderful in looking after our cat while we traveled and offered an update which put us at ease. Highly recommend! Thank you Nelly! 🐈♥️ …
Thank you Nelly for the care given to Matcha during my absences. The first meeting with Nelly immediately inspired me with confidence and she always takes great care of my cat. Matcha is calm when I come home and it's a real plus to know that he is in good hands. Nelly is very professional, respectful and reliable, I recommend her 100%.
Pearl thanks you for bringing her kindness during her mistress's absence. I recommend 200%. A big THANK YOU Nelly 😊 …
Nelly is very good, reliable and does her job with great professionalism. As soon as I saw her, she inspired great confidence in me and I still can't believe I found someone to look after my cat when I have to leave. Truly excellent service, I highly recommend it.
It's never easy to entrust your animals, and yet, all it takes is a first meeting with Nelly to immediately gain confidence! The service is impeccable, the exchanges very simple, Nelly is passionate and it shows! It's a huge stress reduction for me to know that I can count on her when I have to be away.
Professional and friendly service. Many thanks Nelly. I recommend Velvet Paws!!!
If you're looking for someone you can trust, you've found her. Nelly is amazing with animals and is super friendly. She even saved me a dying orchid. I recommend it with my eyes closed. Thank you for everything and see you next vacation.
Nelly is conscientious and professional in her work. She loves animals and is totally invested in their well-being. I can only recommend it to you with my eyes closed!!

Pawffice is the perfect place for dogs to be cared for away from home. Irene takes great care to understand each dog’s individual needs and ensure that they are treated with respect and kindness. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker or sitter in Lausanne.
The team at Pawffice takes dog sitting and walking to the next level! My pup absolutely loves her days here where she goes on nature walks, swims in the lake and has playtime with other dogs. The team sends frequent photos of my pups activities while I’m away so I know she is in good hands, well cared for and having fun. It’s hard to find someone you trust to look after your dog but I can say I found that with the Pawffice team. I cannot recommend them enough!
Fantastic service and professional staff for my rhodesian Charlie! They helped me with many walks while I was busy at the office. They did an initial trial where they made sure there was chemistry between the person and the dog, super!
Pawffice offers a serious and reassuring service for owners and fun for our dogs. This is the best place to entrust our 4-legged friends! Pet sitters are passionate, gentle and punctual. We receive photos and/or videos of activities. I am confident that my dog is in good hands and happy. I recommend without hesitation!
I highly recommend Pawffice. My dog is very well received there, whether for occasional or longer care. Communication is very clear and responsive. Pawffice's passion for dogs is obvious. Congratulations to them and above all a BIG thank you!
Virginie is fantastic! I highly recommend it! I left my "baby" for 9 days (a Persian), he is 8 years old and it's the first time and Mr. was so good that I don't think he missed him at all!!! Thank you for everything Virginie! Anne
Our dog loves Virginie, he celebrates her every time she comes to pick him up for his walk. We have been very satisfied with his services for over 2 years. She is very professional, always there for appointments. We highly recommend it. Marvel
Virginie took care of our animals with talent and affection. A person of great trust!
It’s lucky to have crossed paths with Virginie, I entrust her with the care of my cat Billy with complete confidence. Very professional, caring and available, I 1000% recommend her services!
Virginie is a very experienced dog-sitter. She takes wonderful care of our Pitou who adores her. Thank you Virginie, you have our trust.
I am delighted to have found Virginie!! She is kind, available, serious and passionate! She has been taking care of our cat since we moved and everything has gone perfectly every time. I have total confidence in her and above all we feel that she loves what she does. I particularly appreciate having photos of our cat every time she takes care of it! I highly recommend her and will continue to renew my trust in her!
Virginie has always taken care of our dogs with great passion and know-how. Very available and flexible, she always manages to help out when schedules pose organizational problems (not negligible when you are a nurse). Virginie is very attentive to the master and the dog. Attentive and generous towards our furry friends, you can entrust your animals to her with your eyes closed. I recommend 100% and given the party my dog gives her every time she visits, so do our 4-legged friends!!!
Virginie is passionate about animals, kind, reliable and very available. My two little ones are always delighted to take beautiful walks with her. I strongly advise you to entrust your 4-legged companions to him, they will be pampered.
Virginie is a magnificent person in whom you can trust completely and 100,000%! She is professional, gentle, kind and generous, she loves animals and takes care of them wonderfully. She has a big, beautiful heart. She took care of our dog (Beauceronne) for years, was there for her when things weren't going well, accompanied her in her old age and gave her a lot of love. Virginie became a member of our family and a friend. Our dog died last year and we cried and mourned together. Virginie also took care of our cats and they love her very much! I can only recommend Virginie, you won't find better to watch over your furballs. Besides, she always has our keys, because we know that if we need her, she will be there!
Virginie is great!! she does her job to perfection, she is always available even at the last minute. she loves dogs and above all she is very serious. She never misses a walk no matter what happens to her. She is a trustworthy person with whom you can leave your house keys without worry. I highly recommend virginie for your Loulou Stéphanie rege
