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!
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
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.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
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!
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix 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, $14/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’ve known Karla for 10 years , Groomed for her for 5 of those 10 years and I’ve never met a human yet, that has so much love and compassion for dogs or any animal, at that, like she does. She would starve and go without before she would an animal. She puts herself last in everything in her life, including herself, to give and care for these dogs and all animals. May not be the fanciest place for some materialized people that only see things on the outside, but on the inside of that building,is more love than you will ever know. These dogs are blessed to have Karla care for them like she does. It’s not easy doing what she does, maybe some should try it their selves. In the 10 years I’ve known her, I’ve never seen her not miss a day coming in, no matter how she feels. Karla is a very loyal, dedicated and hard-working lady that loves her Dogs more than life itself. This is a FACT! I own my own grooming shop in Fla., and I will be coming back and joining Ms. Karla and will be grooming . I hold the most up respect for her and admire the love she has for these dogs. We definitely have that in common ❤️
If you love your dog, do not board them here. This establishment has a rat infestation problem, the owner does not listen to any feeding instructions that you leave and if there’s an issue with your pet she will not contact you, she’ll just wait until you come pick up your pet to discuss the issue that she let linger. Karla never answers questions directly just avoids the issue when confronted and gets defensive when you ask simple questions. If you love your pet request updated pet vaccination info on all the pets she’s boarding guaranteed someone’s pet is not properly vaccinated. This place is the worst, one issue null and voids anything good PERIOD!
Its very load in the building from dogs echoed barking.There was no way ,I would leave my labs in that load environment.Needs improved sound barrier system installed.
We boarded our dog for 3 nights and Karla took great care of him. She was recommended by a dog owner at the dog park and we are glad to have found her. It's not a fancy place but she loves animals and she is reasonably priced. I trust her with our sweet boy and will definitely board him there again.
I have been using this kennel for the past 4 years. They are a basic affordable kennel with caring owners. My lab husky mix has never had any issues coming here and is always friendly towards Karla, the owner. Again it's a very basic kennel that is climate controlled. If you want a doggy spa this place is not for you but if you want an affordable kennel especially for big dogs consider this place.
Been using Dogs N Suds for a while and have no complaints! Miss Carla is such a dog lover and treats my baby girl like her own. My dog is always glad to see her and showers her with many licks! I can always count on her to work us in on short notice and if I don't get back in town to pick her up on time, it's never an issue. She always sends us home with homemade treats too!
The owner was a very nice lady, I loved the fact that she had availability for my 2 babies at the last minute and the price was good. What I didn't like was the fact the place smelled like pure urine and my dogs reeked of urine when I picked them up..it was HORRIBLE and I threw there bed away soon as I got home. The back where the dogs are kept needs to receive a deep cleaning ASAP.
I have been taking my dog for now years at dog and suds. The place IS climate controlled and dogs are taken outside to play. Prices are reasonable and include quality food, which is extra at most places. They are careful screening dogs for proper vaccinations and flea control, which other dogs can effect your dog. Many times arrangements have been made with short notice on my part. My dog is aggressive and doesn’t like most people, but likes them. Great job!
Been taking my dogs here for a year now. You couldn't ask for a better place to take care of your dogs.my dogs get extremely excited coming here, and the owner is the sweetest lady ever. She really cares for the dogs, and treats everyone with respect. The prices are decent, and you can bring your own food. Great place to take your dog
Karla took really good care of our dog for a week. She even gave him three different prescribed medications while she had him in her care. He was nervous and didn't eat at first, but she gave him some food he did eat. She went above and beyond to take care of our dog.
Our rating of Petropolis’ service is a “10”. From the moment Crystal walked in the door, she bonded with our pit bull. She provided photos and videos of her interactions; walked and played fetch with her daily. We are VERY PLEASED and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her services. We will definitely use Petropolis Services again!
I cannot recommend Petropolis Pet Sitting enough. Crystal and Petropolis are the first dog sitter/company I've ever recommended to friends. We have three dogs, all with different needs and energy levels, Crystal responds perfectly to each one of their individual needs. My large doodle visits Crystal for day camp weekly and she is my go to for out of town care. My pup waits anxiously each Wednesday morning for her ride and exuberantly greets Crystal. Even better, she comes home happy and ready for a looooooong nap. I never worry about any of the pups' well beings and my home is always well cared for as well!
Great experience. Oliver came by as scheduled, checked in on our cats, and refilled water & food. He communicated with me while he was at my house and sent me pictures of the kitties to show that they were ok. I will definitely call Petropolis again next time I have to travel.
Not enough great things can be said about the service and support provided by Petropolis! The service and care given is not only professional, top quality and by proven experts, there is a genuine love for animals that is immediately apparent when working with them! They understand how precious your pets are to you and they adopt that same loving, approach themselves when being a care provider for your situation. My dogs and I simply could not have been blessed more than when using this service!
Crystal is excellent and totally “spoils” my dog. She always sends pictures or videos of her visit. Highly recommend Petropolis.
I LOVE Crystal! We have hired her a handful of times. I will literally alter my travel plans to coincide with her availability whenever possible. I have no reservations recommending her!
Fantastic service from knowledgeable, caring folks. Your furr babies will get plenty of special attention and be thrilled with their experience. Highly recommend!
They were great. Thumbs up
