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.
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
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!
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
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.
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!
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
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 boarded my dog at Lazy Dog Crazy Dog West Seattle a few times for about 15 nights total. The staff here has been consistently kind, compassionate, and communicative. It always felt as if someone was happy to see my dog when she arrived and that she was well loved while here. Unfortunately, on my dog's most recent stay here, she sustained some out-of-the-ordinary injuries on both her back paws and needed to be picked up early for a vet visit. The three staff members I spoke to about this incident were empathetic, however the situation could not be explained. Because of this most recent stay, my dog will no longer attend boarding here.
After moving to Seattle, finding a facility that could accommodate Covy’s energetic ways almost seemed impossible until Lazy Dog Crazy Dog entered the picture. The staff has been incredibly kind and patient in learning Covy’s mannerisms. He has the best time there whether it’s daycare or boarding. Can’t recommend them enough! Covy especially loves his weekly bath time as part of the monthly package (and so do we #doublecoatdoglife)!
I would recommend anybody looking for a dog daycare or boarding facility to consider here. They know all the dog breeds and their peculiarities well, with some staff certified in dog first aid/ cpr, and the place has staff around 24/7. I've been dropping my dog off here for the last few months, and it is amazingly helpful. My german shepherd dog is very energetic, and their play area is spacious enough that he can run around and get the exercise he needs while I'm at work. The staff are amazing here as well. Each seems to know every dog by name, their breed, and their personality. Talking with them every day, I get to learn who my dog is friends with and how his day went. Beyond that, they are willing to be flexible with our pickup/ drop-off times given that work schedules aren't always perfect. Lazy Dog Crazy Dog gets a 5/5 from me because without them, my dog would have a much lower quality of life being at home by himself most of the week.
I started going here because I needed a place whereby Boston terrier could interact with other dogs and get used to being boarded so that we can go on vacation someday. He's been very shy being around other dogs loves people. What I really love is because they have treated him so well and had him in the correct area of dogs He's starting to be more social so it's working. They're great people to work with and it was really easy to book appointments and they're very accommodating for any needs that come up regarding your pet. I highly recommend as a loving and safe place. I just hope they have the prep class for the dogs at the West Seattle site.
I take two of my dogs here 3-5 times a week and they're both pretty young. I love this place. My dogs are well cared for and get that energy out. The staff have been nothing but nice, helpful, personable, and excellent. My pooches are always worn out when they get home and are better behaved. Strong recommend
I left my dog Freddie here and they were absolutely wonderful! the best care he's ever gotten from a place like this. Andrew was amazing with Freddie and will definitely be coming back
Someone has always answered the door for our very early morning drop offs. They accommodate our unpredictable work schedules without making us feel bad or giving us hassle. We can expect phone calls with issues good or bad so I know they pay attention. The workers are friendly and make the interactions pleasant.
We love LCDC. The staff is kind and attentive and always has some nice details to tell us about our girl Mona: which other dog she played with or just how happy she was to get pets and scritches. We appreciate the fun add-ons and enrichments they offer. Special shout out to Denise and the whole team who clearly care so much about the dogs.
Love this place. Its clear that the staff here care deeply about the dogs and they take care of them very well. Denise in particular has always been very kind and helpful to me
I boarded my dog for the first time, and when I picked her up, she acted skittish and had abrasions on her belly and a couple of deep/long scratches on her flank. As I've never boarded before, I don't know if this is something to be expected. The people were very nice and seemed to like caring for the dogs, but due to the scratches and her odd behavior on the first day back home, I wasn't thrilled with the experience. 1/9 update: my one year-old dog has been peeing on the back deck and in the house since she got back from boarding. I am guessing it is because this facility does not have an outdoor area for dogs to do their business. If you are boarding your pup, I recommend that you find a place that does have an outdoor area
I have been using Patricia's service for the past 2 years. She is the best! Always flexible and accomodating, even with my irregular work schedule. My mini dachshund adores her, and would probably choose to walk with Patty over me. 100 percent recommed for those who need someone to take care of their loved ones.
I was referred to Ravenna Pets and I highly recommend it! Patty was wonderfully kind and patient with my senior dog Roco during his last few years of life, and has excellent communications. Your pets will be in good hands with her!
We love Patty so much! She is the kindest soul and we trust her implicitly! Takes the very best care of our Pippa and loves her as her own.
We love Mr. Pups Pet Care! The owner and staff are amazing - they are responsive, friendly, and welcoming. They love all kinds of furry friends and we absolutely trust them to take good care of ours. The grooming sessions are short as they only take one dog at a time and do not leave your pup in a cage. Our pup always comes home with the best hair cut, nail trim, ear and teeth cleaning. The groomer is very experienced and produces amazing work, exactly to your liking! Highly recommend!!
What can I say about the most amazing & best pet service and staff around! Our pup, Millie, has been loved and cared for by everyone from Max (owner), to Joey (groomer), to Niko (dog park sitter extraordinaire) to Jessica (overnight boarding) and everyone in between and the consensus is that our golden retriever adores everyone! For that we are so grateful and the communication and updates are top notch! Highly recommend for pretty much all your dog needs ❤️. The Mr. Pups gang is truly family for our Millie 🙏
Max is one of my dog’s top favorite humans of all time. We love Mr Pups so much that it was the #1 heart break when we moved out of their service area. Max has known my dog since she was 9 weeks old. Her experience with Mr Pups was a crucial part of her social development. Can’t say enough great things about Max, Lewis, and the rest of the gang. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Max and his crew are amazing! My dog loves going to daycare/walks with them and she always comes home happy and exhausted. Everyone is so attentive and I really appreciate how much they care about dogs. Highly recommend if you’re looking for daycare/dog walking/grooming services!
We love this place! Joey takes the best care of Wally and sends him home looking so beautiful and smelling so clean. They have always been beyond accommodating which has been really helpful for us. Highly recommend this doggy spa and Joey for your dogs!
Max and his team are not only professional and great with dogs but incredibly good people. I know that when my dog is with them shes having the time of her life, being loved and playing outside - I trust them with my dogs life! If you need any kind of help with your dog - park trips, boarding, or grooming - look no further.
Max and his team are the sweetest and most thoughtful dog walkers and sitters. This team is very professional, great at communication and truly care about the doggies they watch. It is so satisfying seeing how happy Wally gets when Max shows up at the front door for his day of adventure and always comes back well exercised. The new grooming salon is a such a boon to the company as well. It's made it so easy to get him groomed now, we just add it to a day of walking and he comes home all washed and trimmed up looking fancy! We love Mr. Pups!
Me Pups is an amazing doggie daycare, walking and grooming service!!! I highly recommend. Our pup spends time this the pack two times a week.
My 9 year old husky has always had a major problem going to a grooming parlor until she met Joey and the Mr Pups grooming salon! She saunters in ( previously she used to buck and scream to even get her into a salon! ), greets Joey and has a sniff around. She sings while she is bathed … of course! She is a husky !!!! …. But she comes home happy, relaxed and showing no anxiety at all which is VERY different to the last several years. Joey is amazing … calm, gentle, thorough bathing, superb manicure and he is QUICK .. in and out in 90 mins or less. Gold star all round! Can’t recommend him more highly. Thank you, Joey and the Mr Pups Team!
SO happy to of met Max at the dog park to help with our VERY active doberman/shepherd/lab mix. I trust Max and all of his dog walkers with Indy and it feels so nice to have a trusted business to take care of Indy when we are away on vacation. We have utilized in home sitters as well as Indy going to our regular dog walkers home. They provide lots of communication and pictures so I know she is having the best time. It's such a relief to have found excellent dog care. My family highly recommends Mr. Pups Dog Care for all your dog needs. Can't wait to try the new grooming salon!
As owners of a reactive and sometimes rowdy pup I cannot recommend this place enough. We were paired with a walker, Jade, who was experienced with reactive/protective dogs. From the minute she met our dog wr knew she'd be a great fit, she did absolutely everything right and I swear he was better behaved when we got back. Very much worth every penny and we can't wait to work with her again. Thank you Jade and Strut The Pup for a stellar experience!
