Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
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!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
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!
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
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!
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his 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 him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was 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 Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes 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 within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. 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. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
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, 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 have used Hidden Acres Farms to board my two fur babies Sally Mae and Ladybug 3 times and have had a piece of mind that they are happy to be there . Lea takes good care them. I will definitely take them back next time I need to Board.
Recently we were going on a long trip (30 days) and needed an outstanding boarding facility for our two pets Dwayne and Ted. Dwayne is a hound and needs a loving environment and a large place to exercise. A farm setting would be ideal. We reached out to Lee and Glenn and they were wonderful. We boarded our two pups and never had a second thought they were being loved and taken care of. My wife and I came back happy and our puppies were also happy. So thankful for Hidden Acres and Lee and Glenn. They gave us piece of mind and took excellent care of our dogs. We would recommend them highly! :)
Our dogs really don’t like being left behind but when I talked to Lea, I knew we’d found the right place for them to go when we went on vacation. Even when things went wrong on our trip home and we couldn’t get to them on time, Lea was very kind and accommodating and looked after them an extra night. When we were reunited with our dogs at last, they were so happy to see us but also we could tell they’d had a great time! Thank you Lea for taking such good care of our dogs! We’ll definitely see you again!
Our Bernie/lab mix has stayed with Lea a few times now and he loves it! He feels right at home when we drop him off and comes home happy. Lea is always kind and we love knowing that our boy is well taken care of while we are gone!
Hidden Arches was an incredible experience for our puppy!! The owners are so loving and treated the dogs like their own. The accommodations were great, he had his own indoor and outdoor area for rest time. They are located on land which gives our pup plenty of room to run around and get energy out. In addition, they worked with him to keep up his training. Highly recommend! We will definitely be back!
Lea is an excellent caregiver and I recommend her at every chance I get. Our dog, Teddy loves spending time at her place. When we say "do you want to go see Ms. Lea" he gets so excited! I know he's always in good hands.
My family and I are so thankful that we found Lea and Hidden Acres Farms. Nolan, our German Shepherd, had a wonderful time there playing with the other dogs and making friends. Lea took a lot of our stress away about leaving Nolan. We knew he was well taken care of and happy. We have already made arrangements for him to stay there when we go on our next trip away.
Our dogs had an awesome weekend staying here! Lea is wonderful and our babies loved her. We really appreciate that she had no problems keeping their food (which needs to be refrigerated or frozen). Our girls will definitely stay with Lea the next time we go out of town!
Our dog Lucy has stayed at Hidden Acres Farms 3 times in the last 4 years and every stay is a wonderful experience for both us and our dog. Lucy always comes back happy, clean and tired from all of the fun she has with Lea and her dogs. Would highly recommend.
Our Chocolate Lab, George, is really our kid, and trusting someone to care for him takes a lot for us. We are new to the area and were in search for someone to board George in case of an emergency or when we go out of town. After looking at Hidden Acres and speaking to Lea, I was pretty sure I didn't need to look any further. But, I still wanted to visit the location and they were so very accommodating with my request. My husband and I took George to visit and knew, within seconds, this place is a gem! They have several other labs that George warmed up to right away and took off on their property playing with the other labs. Lea and her husband took time to chat with us and give us a tour. The kennels are great! Each one has a 25 foot run and raised beds inside. Plenty of room for play! Plus our George was able to run around their 2 acre, fenced in property. SOLD! We found our place!!! We left George for a 5 day stay. Lea was great responding by to my texts. I wanted to check in everyday and she was so open to that and gave me great feedback. It's hard being away from your best friend for such a long time! All in all, Hidden Acres is such a wonderful place to board your furr-kid. It is clean, lots of room, a good value and the owners take pride in taking care of your dog. I would recommend them to anyone and I will be a lifetime customer!
Amanda and her team really go above and beyond. We have three dogs and like most dogs, they each have their quirks. Everyone over communicates with us, they are all so great in our home and with our dogs. Aly is incredible as well. She was concerned that our vacuum was scratching the floor so she brought up new heads for our Dyson. They bring snacks if they think their stomachs hurt, they bring toys, I cannot say enough about the great experiences we have. Going out of town when we can’t bring our dogs is always stressful and I worry but they have really put me at ease.
Amanda is absolutely wonderful with dogs. I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember and it is obvious that Amanda knows dog behavior very well. One of my dogs is very high anxiety and aggressive and absolutely does not want to make friends with anyone. She took her time with him and literally had him eating out of her hand and doing tricks for her. I never thought I would find someone willing to work with him but she absolutely mastered my “advanced” dog. My other dog is elderly and needs medication and she has no problem taking care of him as well. She goes out of her way to make sure my pets are taken care of. I let her do her own thing as far as working with my dogs because she obviously knows dogs and knows what she is doing. She communicates with me and sends pictures every time she visits and booking dates and paying for services through her online portal is super convenient. So happy I found her! Cannot recommend her enough!
I cannot say enough about Amanda and her crew. My situation was unique because I called upon them to pet sit my father's dogs while he was in the hospital for months and all family was out of state. The love and kindness they showed to my father's dogs as well as the family during this difficult time went above and beyond. They stayed on top of the dog's care while also attending to needs around his house since we all were out of state. They all were an absolute blessing. When we realized my father would never be coming home they even helped us find a rescue organization for his dogs which was very emotional for all involved but their kindness will never be forgotten in my family. Thank you Amanda..Jen..and Amy for all you have done...God definitely put you all of you in our path❤️
I have known Amanda for years and once she started her Pet Services there was no question that I would prefer her taking care of our fur kids. She loves her job and the fur kids she cares for and goes above and beyond when she visits. I have referred several friends to her. When we are out of town she stays in touch with photos of our critters and I have so many photos that I cherish. If you need a pet sitter or a great pet photographer - call on Amanda!
I have 5 dogs, including a rescue with some issues for whom a second set of experienced "eyes" can be a tremendous help. Amanda has invaluable experience having worked in a vet's office, at various levels, and that was the most important factor in me choosing her above others I considered. Her ability to notice things I miss is very important, as well as her ability to connect quickly, and deeply, with all my dogs. I have a fearful one, who can be intimidating - Amanda had won him over in 30 minutes. Plus, she is an excellent photographer, something I consider a great sideperk. As long as I have dogs - forever - she will come by twice a week! Check out her website and Facebook to see some pics!
We have been using Premier Pet Sitting for a year and absolutely love it. We have a labradoodle, Gus, who is very energetic. He loves being there with Amanda and her dogs. Sometimes I am afraid he won’t want to come home. You can tell how much they really care about your pet.
Premier Pet Sitting considers all their clients “family”. The level of genuine care, concern and love they show on a daily basis is beyond exceptional. Whether it is a daily visit or in-house overnight care, they always go way above and beyond to make sure you know your pets are being lovingly cared for as if they were their own. It is hard to put into words how much I love this company-but having Premier Pet Sitting in our lives and taking care of our pet everyday is the greatest blessing!
I highly recommend Amanda and her team. She takes care of our pup just like he is her own. I have no worries when we aren’t home and he stays with her when we are out of town. We love Amanda.
Very very upset and disappointed...expected a visit from Amanda tomorrow. Had I not gotten a hold of her today, she would have just left me hanging. Right up front she was told I have a high strung hound. I left her commands he knows from training and treays to reward. Never used them and let him roam. He needs the discipline and is worse off now for her not using them. Good luck. The high reviews may be misleading
Cannot say enough amazing things about this pet sitting company! I have been working in veterinary medicine since 2001 so needless to say I am VERY particular about who watches my fur babies. These guys not only send you pictures at every visit, they do a little write up about how everyone is doing. Highly recommend Premier Pet Services!!!
