This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!!!
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.
Amanda is truly our trusted sitter "find"! She comes back regularly, so much so that our kitties think she is their secondary owner! Always reliable, clean, responsible and most of all loves our cats as much as we do! Good communicator, self reliant - all in all a perfect "10"!
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
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!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
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!
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.
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, $18/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!
This place is wonderful. I can’t say enough good things about the owner and the staff. My girl Luna looks forward to her stays at camp during the day and when I go on vacation. I never have to worry at all. The owner does a lot of rescue dogs and I’m her for everything that she does. The staff there is so happy it makes me at ease, leaving Luna, knowing that if they are happy and in a good mood, they will treat her the same.
I will never board my dog anywhere else. The staff and owner are so patient with him. They have helped socialize my nervous rescue pup with people over the years. Love the updates they give.
My dogs have been going to this ranch since last year, so I KNOW this is the perfect place for your fur-baby! First of all, they take photos of all the dogs! None get left out! Second of all, the pups are almost always playing and having fun! Plus, during holidays they do special events for the dogs! Another reason is that the staff are so friendly and communicating with them is super easy. Every time my dogs come here they always look like they are enjoying their time, interacting with other pets, and have a big smile on their face! Honestly, sometimes I don’t think they want to come back! Overall, this ranch is the BEST option to put your puppy when you are away and is definitely getting a 5 star review from me!
Our dogs had a great time here, and we look forward to using Paddle Creek again in the future! We were super appreciative that they could board our dogs on such short notice after plans with another boarding service in the area fell through. I appreciated the daily picture updates, and not only through pictures but also general attitudes after picking them up, that our dogs were treated well and had a lot of fun. It was like a vacation for them, and we were glad for it!
They take great care of your pups!! Ann has a heart for animals and an awesome setup at the ranch!! We love that she posts pics to their FB page regularly so you get to see your fur babies enjoying their stay!!!
Love these folks! We rescued our sweet Bella from them and decided to take our sweet pups to board there while we were gone! My pups were so happy there and they came home bathed and smelling so sweet! They are our new doggie hotel when we travel and can't take them! They were also very nice to message each person picking up pups the day we were scheduled, to let us know the roads were iced over and dangerous and made arrangements for later pick up and when the roads were safe!
This was Carter's first time staying at Paddle Creek. He seemed to have had a great time. I loved the daily photos so that we could check in on how he was doing. Staff was super freindly.
I drive over an hour to board my dog here. Ann and her staff are top notch! My dog knows where we are going when I say “Let’s go see Ann!” There are multiple play yards outside and indoor arenas. Each evening the staff posts numerous photos of the dogs playing, which is my favorite part-getting to see what my dog is doing all day and seeing the staff interact with her! The dogs spend minimal time in their spacious kennels-many of which are more like rooms- and are continuously being rotated and stimulated whether they are there for daycare or boarding. I never worry after dropping my dog off at Paddle Creek, I’m actually excited for her to get to be there with her dog and human friends🐾 They have recently added on a “senior center”, which is SO nice for the older dogs, and the dogs who might suffer from separation anxiety when away from their owners. If you’re looking to board for a holiday, book as early as possible because Paddle Creek fills up quickly.
The ultimate dog day care and boarding! They dont discriminate against breeds, and dote in all their guests. Miss Ann gives so much back to local rescues and always helps shelters and rescues. Best kennel, ever!
I highly recommend PCPR. Staff is awesome. Cleanliness is one of their top priorities. My Lexi loves going here. They treat the dogs as if they were their own. If you stop by and take a look at her ranch and the work she has put into it and the amenities she has for the dogs, you would never think about going to another place to board your pups.
We are relatively new to the Johnson City area and own multiple pets and were in need of pet care while we were out-of-town. I reviewed several services and kennels and chose Ellen to care for our precious four-legged family members. She was no less than awesome! She met with us and our pets prior to our departure and got to know the pets and their unique needs. We had a relaxing trip and returned home to happy and well cared for pets. Will definitely get Ellen for all our pet sitting needs.
Shes the only pet sitter we've used in Johnson City. We've had emergency trips pop up out of nowhere and Ellen has always been there for our dog when we are in a blind. Our dog is always happy to return so that tells me that he likes her! Prices are decent so I have no complaints
Ellen is a wonderful pet sitter. First time in 13 years I have had to board a pet so I had some anxiety. But she took great care of my dog and made me feel at ease by texting and letting me know how my fur baby was doing. Highly recommend her.
Ellen is very personable and a joy to sit and chat with while she learns about your pet. Looking forward to a great relationship with her and her service.
My Charlie is my love not one time did I worry at all about the care that he was getting, fantastic! The dogs were very happy with their visit you know you can tell, Totally recommend Ellen 100% !!!
Love her she is so good with my girls
She is so good with the dogs.
I’ll definitely be boarding my dog here moving forward. I love how all the dogs are separated and still have access to go outside whenever they’d like. My dog has awful separation anxiety and is super timid, but I can tell she enjoyed herself more here compared to boarding with her vet. It also gives me peace of mind that they have a fenced in area to run around and go potty as needed instead of someone walking her on a leash(she’s an escape artist) the owners are also super nice and gave me reassurance when dropping her off❤️
We have left our rescue love in their hands a few times and could not be happier. They are so kind and considerate. Our rescue is dog aggressive and must be kept separate and they did not look down on her or on us. She requires daily medication and they were so incredibly accommodating. They gave her extra loves and people time. We know she's safe there and cared for when we cannot take her with us.
They have an awesome setup for dogs. Your dog can be separated from other dogs if needed and still walk inside or outside through a doggy door. Each kennel slot has a lot of room. Very cool place
New to the area. Tried very hard through Rover to get a house sitter for our dogs, but they were insane with their prices and we had to go away. The reviews were high and now I get it. Sam and Regina have a kennel right on their property in the middle of the country. Our dogs had been through a lot mentally as my husband was involved in a very tragic accident and couldn't come home for 2 years so I was nervous. They were put in the same kennel which was wonderful. When I went to pick them up...not one dog barking. Not mine, nor the other ten in there. Happy doggies. I will not go anywhere else and highly recommend!
Always have an amazing experience and my dogs love it just as much as I do. Always very convenient and go out of their way to need my needs. Also love the personal touch they treat my dogs just like their own so I don't worry when I leave them because I know they are being pampered with love and affection. Wouldn't dream of taking my pups anywhere else.
We have boarded our Blue Heeler here for the last 8 years. More recently we boarded our Boston Terrier also. In all that time our dogs have received excellent, personalized care. When we pull up to the kennel the blu3 heeler gets very excited and can’t wait to get out and see the owners, Regina & Sam. Very reasonably priced compared to others in the area. We’re very happy with the Stewarts Country Club Kennel & highly recommend it.
My 3 German shepherds stayed here during Christmas. My first time ever leaving my babies. I was a wreck and so tore up. Regina and Stan took such good care of them for me. To comfort me about leaving them for a week they even texted me photos and videos which helped me worry a bit less. Their prices are fair and well worth every penny. Will definitely be using them again if need be. Thanks you Regina and Stan. ❤
We have kenneled our 5 dogs there twice. Great place. They are well cared for. The owners are very nice. They have great size kennels and even suites if you want to put your dogs together. Highly recommend
Can't believe this place has never been on my radar until just a few weeks ago! We are originally from Elizabethton, TN and had to make an emergency trip to visit an ailing family member. They were able to quickly reserve a spot for us on short notice and i emailed our vet records over. They accommodated a late drop off (7.30pm) upon our arrival and immediately made us feel welcomed and was very patient and kind to my jumpy, 85 lb (almost) 2 yr old GSD. Over the course of his four day stay, i texted ea day to ck in and received timely responses and when i asked for pics they sent me a few snap shots. He was in the same healthy shape when we picked him up as when we left off and i cld tell he honestly enjoyed the company of the gentleman who runs the place. I am a VERY picky dog owner, who treats her babies like children, so this is saying a lot. No, the place is not bougie but it is homey and safe, which is what i care about. Also the value is unbeatable. We paid $18 a day vs Jax, FL (where we currently live) and pay bare min of $46 a night at our boarding facility. We'll be back every single time we visit the area 😊
No one who cares for a pet should trust this kennel. We were in an unexpected pinch and were taken in by a few reviews. When we arrived, the place was an absolute mess. The pics shown must be very old. The man asked that we give him a call, and he would meet us at the kennel. Upon our arrival, he was sweeping the floor around the front door. Again, everything was filthy. He said that the good news was that he had no other boarders, and our golden retriever could have the yard--overgrown and full of apples fallen from a tree in various states of rotting. When we arrived, after making another call to the owner, he met us with Rocky. He returned the food we brought saying that he had not fed him yet. Upon our return home, Rocky went straight to his water, and drank and drank. We fed him, and he returned to drinking. Our belief was that the owner put Rocky in the yard without any type of caring on a hot day, and returned at the end of the day to meet us with Rocky. DON'T LEAVE YOUR PET HERE.
