Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
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!
There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo. From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away. This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of. Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for. I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift ! Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down. Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! Thank you, Teresa for everything.... Milo and I so appreciate you .....
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Summer was a very top-quality pet sitter and house sitter. She not only took excellent care of all four pets (three cats and a dog) but even achieved a very close bond with one of the cats. She went over and above the call of duty with our dog, who developed a serious skin condition while we were gone. We're so grateful that Summer was able to identify there was a problem, took the dog to the vet several times, and ended up having to apply topical medication and give pills and even keep the dog dressed in a t-shirt, which she did flawlessly. She communicated with us frequently, sending photos and updates, and the house was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we had left. She did an amazing job, knew how to handle any situation, always had a very upbeat and positive attitude, and we really enjoyed getting to know her right before we left and right after we returned. We would very very highly recommend Summer in all respects!
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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, $10/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!
Kayla does such a wonderful job with our little Sugar. Sugar is so happy when all clean and pretty.
Kayla was able to take our dog as a new customer when we were going out of town for a couple of days. She provided us with updates and pictures about how he was doing. He came back smelling good too (no kennel smell)! We were very happy with the experience and will be happy to use Murphy Farms Pet Care again in the future.
Great people and Kayla always takes care of our dogs.
My 2 fur-babies stayed at Murphy Farms after Christmas for boarding & just had one of them Groomed today. Was very happy with both visits. Will be using Kayla again & recommend to others
Thank you Kayla for the love & care you’ve given Lacy in grooming & boarding..
We just moved to Blairsville and with all moves...finding a doctors, dentists, and hair stylists are important..but so is someone to take care of your pets! I found Kayla Murphy from Murphy Farms Pet care through a local FB group, and I couldn't be happier. She did a wonderful job on my Pomeranian today and he looks beautiful. Contact her, you will be very happy.
Kayla and her family took great care of our Dottie while we were on vacation. I didn’t worry about her at all and will definitely board with Murphy Farms again. Thank y’all!
Boarded my standard poodle with Kayla and he came back so happy after his stay, I highly recommend Murphy farms for boarding and grooming!!
This lady is amazing! Kind sweet to our doggie. Just amazing! Does a great job cutting her hair. She will listen to you and how you want it cut.
Friendly upon entering and checking out. Boarded Mon - Fri. Only got pics one day. My pups didn't seem real happy. Could not see boarding area, not invited to either.
I trust these good people with my 4 dogs. They treat us like family. All of my dogs have been previously abused and have issues. They recognize this and take special care to ensure they are well looked after and loved. I highly recommend them!
Best place to board your dog. The staff is great and they care about your pets. Our dog has a great time when he's there and have never experienced an issue or problem.
We contacted them and dropped our pet in less than an hour. It was Sunday and they closed at 12. Im glad they took our dog else we wouldnt enjoy our visit to Ellijay and Blue Ridge that much. We were charged $30 for an overnight stay which is affordable. Thank you for taking care of our Tsuki.
Such an amazing place for your pets. They wash your pets toys, blankets and beds before you pick up your fur babies, they will bathe them as well for a small fee and they are treated with love.
So grateful for excellent, thoughtful care of our dog while we’re out of town! You can tell the staff is really caring. It’s hard to leave our pup behind but we’re grateful to have such a great place to leave her when we must. They definitely have exceeded my expectations.
This place is adequate for kenneling your loved one. A little surprised at the minimal handover when I brought my pets into their facility the first time however, my pets seemed to be well cared for when I returned
My daughter takes her dog here and loves the place. I myself am grateful to them for when my daughter's car broke down there they let me stay there until about midnight till i was able to finish fixing it.
Great boarding facility! The dogs have spacious runs and a fenced in place to run and exercise. The staff is incredibly dog friendly and accommodating to their needs. Highly recommended if you are near Ellijay.
This place was very convenient to our event. The staff were very nice. Organized. Dogs were ready to come home. They both needed a bath after they got home.
This is a great place!! The staff take such good care of the pets. It's clean and there is plenty of room for the dogs to run. Love this place!
