Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day. I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.
The best house and dog sitters you could ever ask for! They love and take care of our dogs like we do and do the same with our home. Thank you so much Ken and Jane! You are very much appreciated and loved by us, Jules and Lexi ❤️😇🐶
Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!

This is the nicest facility I have ever experienced. It is immaculately clean the owners and staff are very friendly. They are thoughtful and consider each dog individually. Sweet pea had a fabulous time on her dog vacation! Highly recommended very very thoughtful kind competent service great value
Absolutely love this place! We have been taking our puppy here for a few years now. They are very kind in person and on the phone. Our Belle loves coming here and I wouldn't trust anyone else with our baby! She is a ball of energy. The owners always make sure she is up to date with her vaccines and inquire about any new preferences or changes since her last stay. I would highly recommend this Kennel! In fact I have and my friends are very pleased as well.
We had never used a boarding place for our dog before finding Leiter's Country Kennel. Pam and Bob are amazing and LOVE our dog. They make sure that he has time to play, heat, air conditioning, and even soothing music! The place is spotless, and the staff is so friendly. I never have a question about him being happy and cared for. He is so tired out and happy when he comes back home. He absolutely loves going there and I would never take him anywhere else. The price is very, very reasonable for the attention our big guy gets!
We love Leiter’s Country Kennels so much! A quiet country setting, beautiful Kennels, and lots of love for your dog are just some of the reasons we LOVE this kennel so much! Pam is wonderful to work with and cares a great deal about your dog... sending pictures and reports to you. Our Dog, Chloe, gets so excited when we pull up she nearly knocks down the door to get in! Thank you Pam and staff for caring for our Chloe and giving such attention to detail. We wouldn’t leave her with anyone else!
I boarded my dog here over the weekend. She has been boarded in the past at another place and did not do well there. She would hardly eat, she literally would climb up on my shoulder and cling to me for dear life, and she would cry all the way home. What a difference bringing her to Leiter's Country Kennel was. She ate fine; I could tell she was happy to see me when I picked her up, but it wasn't the anxiety-ridden greeting I've had in the past; and she didn't cry at all on the way home. The kennel is clean, the owner is really nice, and she has people working for her that spend extra time with the animals. I think that makes a big difference. Plus they sent me photos of my dog while I was gone, which was a nice touch. I will definitely board her here again if the need arises.
We have boarded dogs for roughly 7 years now at over 6 different locations in two states, and this is the best place they have ever stayed. They go hog-wild in the car once we turn down the gravel road! It is not the cheapest (it's pretty close), but you absolutely get what you pay for. Their shed is clean, climate-controlled, and very spacious (dogs get an inside kennel and an individual outdoor kennel space). If you stay during off-peak hours, Pam and Bob let your dogs have near-unlimited outdoor play as long as they are quiet (and don't try to tunnel out!). Our dogs have actually bonded better as a pair when staying with these folks. I highly endorse their recommendation.
Incredibly nice people and very caring of dogs. We brought our dog who is often nervous when boarded and around other dogs. They texted us updates and photos of her to let us know how she was doing. They spent the time to get to know her and care for her. Would recommend to anyone, amazing service and care.
Leiter's Kennels were very accommodating on getting my dog in last minute for daycare. I really appreciate their professionalism and will definitely use their services again.
I have been using this kennel for both long and short-term for a little over year now. I have been thoroughly impressed and grateful . They have always been able to accommodatell my two Goldendoodles, Sammy and Sade Rae, at even the shortest notice, every time. Additionally , when I plan to stay a few days longer on my trip, they have always been very kind and happy to have them for an extra day or two. The price is extremely reasonable, the staff very kind, and the social set up so great for my fur babies as they are enjoying the company of other dogs and taking away the added worry of thinking of them cooped up in a crate. Most importantly, Sammy and Sade Rae''s behavior and disposition regarding going to or leaving Leiter ''s Country Kennel is indicative of how well they are treated there. They love the ride there and as soon as I pull in the their driveway they are jumping around in the car to get out! Never once have they been anything but their happy self when I have to pick them up. This kennel is very clean. It is heated and has air conditioning. This is a great business that I am happy to support and would recommend to anyone who''s pet would enjoy the social experience offered at this fantastic kennel.
Excellent place to board your pet. Owner sent me updates and pictures of my pet through my trip. My cat came home happy and contented. Would definitely use again.
Duke LOVES Happy Trails! 🐾 🩵 He can barely contain himself when we turn down the drive and he realizes where we are. They always take such great care of my sweet boy. Definitely recommend!! …
First time leaving any of our pets with anyone other than family/friends. I’ll never have to ask family/ friend to pet sit again. Our “baby”, Lady, was so well taken care of. She even came home in a festive handkerchief. So, so cute. WE WILL BE BACK!
First time using their service this weekend. We will definitely use them again. They asked us if we would like to tour the facility, and we did. Very clean and organized. Very nice people to work with. We have a black lab and an aussie-Doodle. Both well taken care of. Good prices too!
Never had a problem. All my dogs have given them a 1 “Paw” up!! I trust them completely
Awesome place to temporarily home our Great Dane and Lab while out of town. Great staff and facilities!
I rate below one star. I had called & left a VM about boarding my dog there. In the callback I outlined my dog's medical needs. The woman yelled at me, "WHY IS HE STILL ALIVE!" So unprofessional let alone cruel. That's between me & my vet. Just say no, don't be nasty about it!
My two dogs, Jax and Hunter, were very well cared for. They stayed for 5 days. They smelled nice when I picked them up and they seemed to really like the staff. Staff sent photos through text at my request while I was gone. Will always use this dog hotel for my hounds.
They take great care of my kids 💜 …
Absolutely love Happy Trails. The only place I feel comfortable enough to leave my furbaby Molly with, knowing she is being very well taken care of.
Very clean and friendly. Staff made it easier to drop my puppy off for the first time.
We have just used Paula's Pet Sitting service for the first time with 3 of our whacky kitties, and it was the least stressful absence we've EVER had! It's so nice to have the peace of mind that everything is taken care of and to be able to see and read that all the critters are acting normally. Thank you so much, team! We will be sorely disappointed to ever live somewhere without this service.
We have used Paula's Pet Sitting for over 2 years now and taken advantage of the wide range of services they offer. They are always flexible with our ever changing schedule and always go above and beyond to make sure our fur baby is taken care of. Another great feature is the time to pet app that they use. Everyday I get an update with pictures of how our little fur baby is doing during her visit. The pet sitters are always professional and always respond quickly to questions and schedule changes. I would highly recommend using Paula's Pet Sitting for all your pet sitting needs.
I have only used them a few times so far but HIGHLY recommend!!! My friends first showed me how to get a pet sitter with an app while I was away visiting them and I loved the idea so I could set up times without having to call. When my one of my other friends told me about Paula's Pet Sitting it was exactly what I wanted! Unlike Rover and Wag you get to meet your team and that was extremely important to me. They came, saw where we kept pet items in the house, and met me and my pups. When they came both times, they were fantastic! They let you know when they have arrived, and then at the end they send you pictures of their visit as well as a message letting you know how it went. It is so nice to have finally found a pet sitter I feel comfortable with and with many options to use (dog walks, mid day let outs, overnights, etc.). Again, I HIGHLY recommend them.
I brought home a 6 week old puppy and hated leaving him alone during the day. Driving home on my lunch break daily was not a sustainable plan. A friend recommended Paula's pet sitting and I am so pleased I contacted them! My puppy gets visits twice a day and loves each woman on the team that is assigned to him. They refresh his water, prep Kong toys, replace soiled potty pads, and send me a report with pictures after each visit. I am still working on training and the ladies work along with me. If I require the dog sits before a gate is opened, they do the same. If I reward my puppy for relieving himself in the correct place, they do to. I don't have to worry that visits are counteracting the training. If you are considering using a pet sitter- go with Paula's!
We used to avoid travelling because it was so uncomfortable asking friends and neighbors to care for our cat while we were gone and the cat would get upset and pee on the carpets. With Paula's we know our pets routine is as normal as possible so they're happy when we get back. They even water our plants and come at 12 hr intervals to administer meds to our 17 yr old cat.
We have moved to Midland in 2018 we needed to travel shortly there after. We are so lucky to have found Paula’s Petsitting. Without her and her staff it would’ve been very difficult to go on trips and feel assured that our “hairy “children are very well taken care of. Before moving here we used to “board “ our Pets and having them at home in their own environment is such a reassuring thing. Thank you for giving us peace of mind !
We hired Paula's pet sitting on 2 different occasions now. Their service is outstanding. The pet sitters are going above and beyond at each visit, they will check everything and keep you informed every step of the way. Last minute requests are responded to within minutes. Will definitely continue to use.
We planned a trip and three months before we left, decided to get two more westies, in addition to our four year old. We have only left the four year old with family members, but with two puppies, thought it would be best to keep their routine at home. Our vet recommended Paula's and the experience was wonderful! Daily updates and pictures made our vacation so much more enjoyable, knowing our boys were at home, playing in their own yard and sleeping in their own beds. Gigi did a wonderful job with the dogs and answered every question I had while we were gone!
Paula's Pet Sitting provides excellent care and recreation for my crazy cat, while providing me with peace of mind. And that is all I ask. I receive 'real time' reports and photos, which when shared with others always evokes the same response: "I don't get that kind of service from my pet sitter!" I will continue to use this service and confidently recommend it to others.
We are so happy to have found Paula's Pet Sitting! Paula and Amy take great care of our older dog, who is beginning to experience some health issues. It's comforting to know that she is in good hands when we are away from home!
