Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
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!
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.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
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!
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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 20$ per visit, $5/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!
I had a week long vacation out of the country and was very thrilled when I found Lori! I have never left my bunny with someone before for that long and was super nervous. Lori made me feel much better about the whole process by giving me access to the bunny room camera and her extensive knowledge on rabbits. I got to check on my little guy the whole time I was gone! Will definitely use Whisker Wise boarding the next time I’m out of town!
My three guinea pigs are very spoiled and precious to me, so it’s hard for me to leave them when we go out of town. I am so glad to have found Whisker Wise! Lori takes excellent care of my girls and responds readily to texts when I inquire about how they’re doing. They stayed with her for over two weeks this summer while we were visiting family and upon picking them up I could see they were happy and healthy (no lost weight, which happened at a previous place we boarded them at). She even gives them fresh veggies/tomatoes from her garden! Definitely recommend Whisker Wise. :)
Our guinea pigs Teddy and Domino were very well cared-for during our week and half away this month. The owner is super responsive to texts, understanding and responsible, and even sent us a cute video of our babies. :) Would definitely use again! Oh, and it was super affordable too!
Whisker Wise watched my two bonded English Lop Rabbits for about 17 days. Lori did such a good and attentive job in caring for them! They seem healthy and happy as can be. I also really enjoyed that Whisker Wise Animal Care and Boarding has cameras set up over the rabbit areas so you can check in on your rabbit at any time. Lori is also extremely kind and definitely cares about the animals themselves. When my rabbits ran out of a supplement/treat Lori went out and bought some more. I would definitely leave my Rabbits with Whisker Wise again!
When I went out of town for a week I was glad to find a place like whisker wise and someone like Lori to take care of my bunny. I've never boarded her before so I was a little apprehensive, but Lori assured me she would be very well cared for. She even offered to place her in a pen with a camera. It was so nice to see her on video whenever I wanted so I could check up on her and be able to move the camera around to see who she was rooming next to.The size of the pen looked very spacious and nicely set up with blankets. I would very much recommend Whisker Wise for any of your pocket pets and will definitely be using them again in the future!
I love Whisker Wise Animal Care & Boarding! Lori is absolutely wonderful and takes such good care of my rabbit. I never have to worry about him when I go out of town. She gives him the attention he needs and gives me updates on how he is doing. The setup she provides for rabbits is really nice and big. I used to board my bunny with my veterinarian, but I much prefer Whisker Wise. I have no reason to ever go to another boarder again!
Lori takes amazing care with the animals she watches. I was anxious to leave my newly adopted bunny for a week, but when I came back my sweet Maggie was even tamer than before! She has an amazing set up for bunnies (super cool modified room!) with toys and boxes and even little sitting pads for the bunns. She's super flexible about pick up and drop off and is very kind! She is awesome! Definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience! Our senior bunny was well cared for during the 10 days we were out of town, and I loved being able to check on her via webcam. We will definitely be booking again the next time we go on a trip!
Having recently moved to the area, we were a little nervous with finding a new place to have our rabbits stay while we were out of town. Lori was great to talk to and put me at ease- additionally having a camera where we could view our buns to check in on them was a huge plus as well! Benny and Jasper were well taken care of during their stay over the New Year's holiday. Definitely will be bringing our buns here in the future for boarding. Thank you Lori!
Lori took in my bunnies at the last minute because I lost power. She was super kind and helpful! She was flexible and attentive. I know my kids were well taken care of. I definitely recommend her and will go back to her in the future.
My lab Millie has been going to Nightshift Petcare since she was 18 weeks old. Joy helped me train Millie and I attribute much of her sweetness to the time she spent learning to socialize with the other dogs at NSPC. Millie attends daycare 2x a week and there is no where else I would leave her for overnight boarding. Joy is the best of the best of the very best!!!
Joy is the best. My pup probably has a better vacation than I do every time I drop them off. Could not recommend higher.
Joy is fantastic! Totally trust her with my pups! Bonus she’s super funny
We left for a week out of state and needed help with short notice. Maria's schedule was pretty full, but she was able to help us out. She strives to help if she can. We have dogs, cats, fish and birds that were cared for the entire time we were gone. We received a consultation where we walked through all the specifics prior to leaving. We met our sitters in advance. They interacted with the pets for a while before we left, so we could introduce everyone. We do have some pets with anxiety, so this was important to us. We had our first vacation with real peace of mind because of Happy at Home Pet Sitting and their outstanding services. We spent years finding the right way to be able to leave town, not worry and have our pets routines uninterrupted as much as possible. This will be our long term first choice whenever we leave for vacations, or on business. The prices are more than fair. Our pets were unfazed by our leaving because they had the necessary support while we were gone. We would recommend Maria and Happy at Home Pet Sitting for anyone that would like peace of mind, quality care for your pets at an affordable price. Short or long stay, use Maria & her team for your pets while you're away!
Maria has been absolutely wonderful with our cats and our dog Arrow! We feel so lucky to have found her, its comforting knowing our pets are safe and happy when she is there. Maria has done feedings and medications with playtime for us a few times and visits always come with an update and cute pictures!
I recently used Happy at Home Pet Sitting Service to care for my 10 year-old cat, Zoey. Zoey is not terribly used to being left alone (thanks, Covid!), so, I was somewhat apprehensive about leaving her without me for 10 days while on a trip. Maria stopped by before my trip and got to know Zoey and me, and provided assurances that my furry friend would be very well cared for. Maria explained everything about her services, provided references and brochures, and said that in my case, her company had a local sitter who would care for Zoey while I was away (the local person also stopped by before my trip to meet Zoey and me). While I was on the trip, I received a daily text update and periodic photos of Zoey. Maria had her staff follow all of my instructions and I could tell that Zoey had been well cared for while I was gone. Maria's prices are very reasonable and the fact that she has been in business for so long says a lot about the integrity of her service. She obviously takes pet sitting very seriously and provided the highest level of care for my Zoey. I could not be more satisfied. When I called my local vet to inform them that Maria and her team would be watching Zoey (in case a medical emergency), the vet said they are familiar with Maria's service and spoke highly of her. I think Maria has a lot of clients and is busy...but she made time for me and I will be using her service when I travel again in the near future. David, Ocean Shores.
Love love love! First impression...I contacted Maria and she quickly responded. This has continued throughout our relationship with her. When it comes to our furbabies, we know how important timely replies are! After that, she met us to go over our expected services and meet our sitter. After the service... We found nice notes journaling our dog's disposition and activities when the sitter visited. I 100% completely trust and recommend this company! Maria has been wonderful about following up to be sure we were happy afterward. I really can't say enough good about them. One last thing...icing on the cake...reasonably priced! Just an update... We have used Happy at Home 3 times now. Our oldest dog, Abe, used to get very stressed when we got the suitcases out. Now that he knows Happy at Home ladies will be coming by, he could care less if we leave!
I tried contacting these people multiple time, but each time it just rang and rang till I hit the answering machine. I left a voicemail and got no returning call. Basically what's the point of having a business if you can't even answer a phone.... thanks to these people I wasn't able to find a place for my dog when a emergency popped up and I had to put my dog in the pound. Please take down your website if you don't answer. Or at least put business hours down. A very poorly ran business
Maria and her team are excellent. Highly recommend!
They take great care of our dogs and kitty, and the daily dog club visit is awesome, and well worth peace of mind! Happy dogs!☺
Lovely people who look after our wee hairy beasties very well.
Fantadtic service! They do a great job with our furbabies
Maria and crew go above and beyond!
This is an amazing place to take your dog to play and have fun with other dogs. We have taken our dogs here for daytime fun and for boarding while gone on a family trip. Everyday they post videos of the dogs playing and having fun on their Facebook page. We are faithful customers and highly recommend this family owned and operated business to everyone we know that has dogs. Thank you Playfurlots!
Found out about Playfur Lots through Facebook and so glad we came across them! We have left our big dog Hank here a few times while we have taken week long vacations. We love to see the videos and pictures of the dogs playing while we are away, it makes us feel good knowing our dog is in good hands and also having fun! I recommend them as much as I can and will continue to be a customer for years to come.
We call it dog camp - our labs (a puppy and a senior dog) love the play and swimming. They come home exhausted and happy (and very well cared for - the regular Facebook videos are much appreciated).
This place is the best and our pups love going there. Shane is so attentive and responsive to both the pups and the parents! The rest of the staff are all amazingly great too. They are all so welcoming and make you feel like family. They have so much room to play, a pond, and videos all throughout the days to see how everyone is doing. We love the videos! It means everything to know our pups are well cared for and having so much fun while there.
There are other pet care/boarding facilities around. Your rudeness will not only cost you our business but also friends, neighbors, family, and businesses who hear/read the postings we will share. May you reflect on your actions when Karma knocks.
This is the ONLY I trust to take care of my pups while I'm away. They're just as excited for my vacation time as I am because they get to come roam around and be a dog! 10/10 establishment.
We LOVE Playfurlots so much. My pup Lola takes advantage of day camp as well as boarding. She absolutely loves Shane and playing with all her doggy friends. She goes for walks, plays in the pond, runs around with her buddies and just has a great time. Shane has a.beautiful knack with the dogs and we couldn’t be happier.
Glad I found this place! It’s perfect for my Dog Monty, who loves swimming, being in nature and playing with other dogs. Shane is great. It was my dogs first time being away from me and he struggled at first, but Shane was patient and gave my boy personal attention so he eventually got comfortable being there. Monty’s got a second dad now and next time I vacation, I know Monty will be excited to see him and stay there. Thank you Shane!
Playfurlots is the only place I leave my boys overnight. I know they're safe and well cared for. One of my boys is a picky eater while he's there, and Shane goes the extra mile to make sure he eats. He also posts videos throughout the day so I can see the boys play, which is awesome. I can't play the videos with the sound on if the boys can hear it. They run around and start looking for their friend, Shane. :)
My grand puppy Jax has been going here for a long time, and it’s awesome!!! The grounds are wonderful, so much to do for all the pups!! Shane is wonderful, great communication and easy drop off and pick up!! As soon as my Ruby is old enough she’ll get to go play with her fur-riends!! Highly recommend!!
Robin and Teresa took great care of our pets, and Colleen was very communicative throughout the booking process, and everyone was very flexible when we needed to extend our reservation several nights at the very last minute. Robin took our dog on some cool outings and very long walks, and we could tell that both she and our cat had been well looked after and had fun while we were gone. Can't recommend them highly enough!!
I’ve been using their services for years for my cats and am 100% happy. My babies are in excellent hands when I can’t be there. My preferences, even the arguably unnecessary ones, have always been respected. Cats get playtime and attention and are relaxed when I get home. I love getting texts and pics from each visit. I called references before starting and all were glowing. Now I would give a glowing reference of my own. I trust them with taking good care of my babies, and the peace of mind is worth a lot.
Update: The service from Sit and Stay continues to be stellar. I have no worries when we are away. The cats are well taken care of and loved. Colleen takes great care of my cats and my home when we are away. She needs to give meds and special meals, water plants and of course scoop litter. Everything is well taken care of.
Worth the peace of mind to know my cats are being fed, litterboxes scooped and that medication is given. Even though cats are easier to take care of than dogs, and don't need to be walked, they still miss interaction and playtime when I'm gone. The last time they cared for my cats there was some confusion about dates/times, but prior to that I never had any problems. Also at least one of the visits was much less than the 30 minutes.
I recently moved across the country and was desperately looking for a new pet sitter for my 6 year old Irish Jack Russell. I live in a remote area so many companies would not oblige my request. The owner of Sit & Stay worked tirelessly to find me coverage with her excellent pet sitters. I just had them sit for Tyson for the past week and they were excellent. Walked him every day, even if it was a little rainy, played a lot with him and sent me pics. He looked happy in the pics and I feel like I now have found my go-to pet sitters for the future. I would highly recommend them.
The two pet sitters that were assigned to us were very genuine and caring. They administered our kitty's medication efficiently, watered the indoor and outdoor plants which we had instructed them to, checked the cat box, food and water, and checked the mail. We will definitely use Sit & Stay again!
I was referred to these folks by The Cats Meow Boarding. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats and 8 chickens. My house is a farm. I hired these ladies to stay over while we were out of town and I am SO PLEASED! They were responsive, caring and they sent daily photos and updates about how my pets were doing. Their rates are VERY reasonable for how much time you get. Anyone who wants to go on vacation with as little trauma as possible to their pets, this is your service.
Briz was absolutely awesome! She sent us a text message everyday to let us know how our cat Butters was doing and she even included a pictures! I cannot tell you how at ease that made us feel. Butters recently came down with diabetes, so this is a whole new adventure for all of us. The first time we went out of town we boarded him at our (then) veterinarians office thinking that was a safe environment to leave him because they would know what to do if anything went wrong. When we called to check in on him they would tell us that he was not eating so they did not give him his insulin. We would tell them that he just needs a little attention and that he would eat, their response was that he will eat when he is hungry. Needless to say, we will not ever board him there again nor do we take our animals there for their medical needs. Briz is a delightful, caring young lady who took the time to listen to us and made the added effort to ensure Butters was properly cared for in our absence. We feel very fortunate that our paths crossed. I would recommend Sit and Stay for your pet care needs. They employee outstanding caring people.
We are new to having a dog walker, and its been great to have that peace of mind during the day. I appreciate the flexibility of the program, if we need to switch days or give them specific time windows, they are very accommodating of that. I also appreciate the option to have them text when they check on the dog as well.
Easy and convenient. The people are nice and reliable. We've used them three times and plan to use them MORE! They were a lifesaver when our previous dog sitter up and moved without notice.
Debby has been taking excellent care of our furry buddies for several years. She takes the time to get to know each of our pets treating them as if they were her own. Debby has been wonderful about meeting the unique needs of each pet and situation. She quickly returns calls to schedule pet sitting and is most willing to stay in touch, when needed, while we are away to let us know how things are going back home. We place complete trust in Debby each and every time we leave our beloved pets and our house in her care. We cannot imagine having anyone else provide pet care services for us! We need more than 5 stars to say how much we appreciate all that she does for us while we are away. Thank you Debby!
Debby has been our pet sitter for the past 5 years and has taken care of our cats every time we are away from home. The first cat she cared for was a very long-haired Persian we adopted when the kitty was 14 years old. She was a fabulous kitty but had some medical problems and all the Persian-specific issues, including requirement for daily eye care and brushing. Our second kitty, also a Persian, adopted as an adolescent kitten, requires similar daily attention. Debby has taken great care of both cats. In addition, she provides updates (text messages or phone calls) on a regular basis when we are away for more than 1-2 days. We are extremely pleased with the service she provides and are very glad she is willing to travel from Albany to Corvallis to take care of our pets.
Pet Watchers has been meeting our needs and exceeding our expectations for over 10 years. Debby is dependable and reliable, providing loving, attentive care to our pets as well as giving our home the appearance of being occupied when we are away. We highly recommend Pet Watchers.
I have had Petwatchers watch my pets for many years now. I tend to be picky about their care and Petwatchers aways exceeds my expectations. I have many types of animals from dogs, cats, chicken, fish and even my three very spoiled horses. I come home from vacation and my home and pets act and look like I was never gone. I rate her 5+ stars!!!!!!
Very reliable and available on short notice. My dogs seem happy and comfortable when I get home. She takes care of my bird too.
Brenda was amazing with my fur baby, Ella. I really enjoyed the journals, pictures, and all the updates! This has been the best dog walking experience I have ever had. I will definitely be sticking with Fetch! pet care, especially if Brenda takes care of my Ella.
A search shows dog boarding but no longer boards dogs.
It was just a phone call but the lady was nice
