I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
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.
Amber is as good a sitter as you will find anywhere! She treated our cats with such love and care, as if they were her own. She left our house in perfect tiptop tidy shape, and made sure to wash all the towels and linens before she left. She even cleaned out our coffee maker and took up our weekly trash without us even mentioning it! Amber is super kind and personable and we welcome her back to sit for us anytime! If you are looking for a sitter, you should definitely accept her application!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
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!
Absolutely fabulous for my three dogs to enjoy off leash time. It is immaculately kept, water and waste bags provided. The boys love it here!
Wonderful facility & staff who take great care looking after our precious girl one day a week, she cannot wait to go there for doggy play school
We go every week with 4 dogs at once, great field to gove your dogs a good run about, its a shame some owners do not pick up after their dogs, but the owner of the field keeps on top of cutting grass, making sure water bowl has water. Best dog park for size and cost
Our dogs, Alan & Helga, love going here for day care and playing with their friends! The team are all so kind and caring. It's one of the very few fully licensed and insured places and I totally trust them with my dog's care. They also have a secure exercise field which is really well maintained :)
We have a big German Shepard named LOKI and my partner went abroad for 10 days.. this field was amazing.. booked for 10 days for 10 pound an hour.. Loki loved it and I really enjoyed being there with him… I didn’t have to worry about other dogs and could let him run without being nervous of anything… worth every penny to know my dog was safe.. thank you all xx 5* you will definitely see us both soon… thanks again from Michelle John and Loki x highly recommend x
My dog loves going to Oak Ridge - she doesn't even look back at me when she leaves the car as she's so excited to be there and looking forward to a play day with all her friends!
Brilliant place. Our 1st visit and our Golden Retriever loved it. He was absolutely shattered after all the running around. Trying recall and he has improved but he still thinks it's a game. Will be booking again soon.
Stayed in the area, we used Oak Ridge for our dog overnight, to enable us to take kids to West Midlands Safari park. Very friendly family run establishment. Would definitely recommend. Reasonable prices. Our dog loved it there. Thank you.
We hired the field for our 2 dogs to have a good run. Would recommend to anyone who wants to train their dogs
Love big secure field for the dogs to run in with a big shelter for horrible weather! Perfect for socially distanced dog run and lovely owners 👍 …
Bethany has arranged some wonderful sitters to look after Cooper my Labrador. The sitters are passionate about animals & have experiences with pets of their own. Always so helpful, very pleasant and fast with responses! Would definitely recommend to other pet owners!
We've been using Lisa to help with training our very busy and chatty Nancy! She has done wonders - even from the first visit. Very thorough, incredibly knowledgeable and full of ideas that are manageable on a day to day basis, as well as being fun. And all very efficiently coordinated by Bethany. THANK YOU!
Five stars isn’t enough for this wonderful service. My dog was looked after better than I could’ve hoped for, loved and cared for by a wonderful dog sitter. Daily updates whilst I was away and photos to put my mind at ease. I really can’t thank them enough for providing such an incredible service and I would highly recommend them to anyone that needs a home from home for their beloved pet
I have used the dog walking and the training services and both have been excellent. It is well organised and the training has really helped to resolve some of our issues.
Amazing find, lovely place in the middle of nowhere, with nice 4 legged neighbours and stunning views,
Very comfortable. Met by Mark who showed us around the accommodation. Had all we needed for our stay. Set in beautiful setting made even better by a visit from Marks dog. Would recommend.
