Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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
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.

Janis and her husband Dan were beyond phenomenal! Communication was great leading up to their arrival, especially with coordinating arrival and departure times. And during the sit, I got lots of picture updates throughout of how Isabel was doing. I could tell from the pictures how comfortable and happy my dog was hanging out with Janis and Dan and getting all the pets and attention. Coming home, everything was left so clean and organized. I definitely recommend them as pet sitters as they clearly took such good care of both my pup and my home.
Craig
Samantha and Scott are great sitters and we enjoyed hearing from them a couple of times while we were away. Our pets were very relaxed and happy too! Very happy to recommend them.
Robert
Kelly was flawless, she was a fantastic pet sitter and house sitter. She was over communicating with pictures and updates. We were at total peace knowing Kelly was overseeing Leo and Bella. Kelly connected with our dogs perfectly. We loved how Kelly daily took our dogs for walks and even an extended hikes. She has our full and complete recommendation.
Suzanne
Initially, I was very nervous about finding my very first in-home pet sitter who could provide the level of care and attention our 3 beloved fur-kids required. From the moment Emily and Johnny stepped into our home, I knew they were going to be in good hands. Their gentle demeanor and genuine love for animals instantly put our dogs Gypsy & Johnny at ease. Emily and Johnny took the time to understand our pets’ unique personalities and preferences, ensuring that their every need would be met. During our absence, Emily provided us with regular updates and adorable photos. Their detailed communication gave me peace of mind, knowing that my fur babies were in the best possible hands. Upon our return, we were greeted by a happy and contented gang, who clearly had enjoyed their time with Emily and Johnny. Emily and Johnny are more than just pet sitters; they are true companions to our furry family. Their exceptional care, genuine love for animals, and unwavering dedication have earned them a permanent spot in our hearts. Without hesitation, we give Emily and Johnny a 5-star rating and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving caregivers for their beloved pets. THANK YOU Emily and Johnny!!! <3
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Lynn
We were so happy to have Kyle as our house sitter for two weeks. Besides taking great care of our pets and our house, he was very accommodating. We were always able to get in touch with him if we needed to, and he agreed to take on some extra plant watering’s when the weather made a sudden change. As a bonus, he is very likable and communicative. We would definitely have him come again.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!
Jessica
Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month. I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!
Mona
David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.

I've been taking my small fluff ball of a dog to Rhonda for a few years now. She is very kind and considerate, she treats all the dogs as if they were her own. She gets to know them personally and what dogs play well with each other. She is passionate about her Kennel and is amazing.
My Corgis absolutely love Rhonda at Kaley Park Kennel! It’s a huge relief when I go on vacation and I know my dogs are in perfect hands and being Loved.!
Ronda gives my dogs tons of attention. I love her drop off method....she takes care of paperwork first then comes to your car and takes dog to play first thing. They think it's a play date!
I know my dog is safe and well-treated here. Always a very good experience. Nollie, our dog, gives it Two-Paws-Up.
This s my first time going she was very friendly n professional even tho she said my dog talked a lot the whole time she was there sorry she talked u to death but hopefully next time she’ll do much better😊thanks for your service! …
The worst kennel experience ever !!! If you love your dogs, stay away from this crazy lady! She won't even let you view the kennel !!! All they needed was a little attention !!!
This place is pretty great! They have their property secured so our pets are safe and the owners spend a lot of time with them. It’s the only place I have sent my babies to and the only place I will ever use.
Great rates and Rhonda is very friendly and accommodating. My dog loved her.
Teddy, my black lab loves Rhonda and loves the walls. Very good place. And I am picky!!
My dogs love this place and Rhonda loves my dogs! The care and attention is unmatched.

I've been bringing both of my dogs here for a little while now. My dogs have pretty different personalities but they both leave beautiful and energetic. I appreciate the care taken and the good vibes of this location. The groomers always do a great job giving my dogs a natural trim, de-shedding, and sanitary trim. I've never had a bad experience.
We were disappointed with our recent visit to Sitting Pretty. We requested a bath, blow-dry, ear cleaning, nail trimming, and teeth brushing for our dog, confirming these services both on the phone and in person before the appointment. At no point was anal gland expression mentioned to us, and we didn’t realize this would be performed as part of their standard services. When we got our dog home, she seemed uncomfortable, chewing at her butt and clearly distressed. Later that night, we noticed anal gland secretions on our bed (something that we had never had issues or experiences with before), which was upsetting for us and stressful for her. When we called to clarify, they informed us that this service was performed, but it was not communicated to us during the booking or drop-off process. While we understand this may be a standard practice for them, we feel strongly that procedures like this should be explicitly discussed beforehand. Our dog has never had her glands expressed, and this situation has left us concerned about potential future issues for her. We hope this feedback helps improve communication between staff and clients in the future so everyone is fully informed about what services are being performed during a grooming session.
Every groomer I’ve had has done a phenomenal job. The cut, the way my dog is excited to go there. The place and building itself is amazing. Only reason I’m giving a 4/5 stars is in order to be a client. I have to deal with the receptionist, who is not very customer friendly.
First time going there and they were super fast booking an appointment for my pup. KAYLEIGH was my puppy's groomer & she was beyond fabulous!!! Great customer service skills and met all of our expectations!!!100% recommend!! I will be returning thank you, Thank you, thank you!!!!
Took my cat in to get his nails trimmed. It was so quick and cheap. Though, I didn't know there were steps to get in/out. That made navigating my pet stroller awkward/slightly difficult.
The owner does an excellent job with my dilute calico cat I will continue to have her shave my cat with a lion cut it certainly helps her not to be a poopy but.
I have been twice now with my 3 huskies. They are always so soft and fluffy when I pick them up, and it's been a great experience so far.
I would highly recommend Sitting Pretty because they are very careful with your dog. When you get your dog back they come with a free bandana already tied perfectly on them. Also when my dog leaves the place she comes back smiling like she enjoyed it. I would recommend it to send them there for cutting their nails and for haircuts. 😁 …
We have a juvenile cat whose long hair is impossible to keep untangled. The staff at this salon do an incredible job giving her a lion cut that helps keep her happy and tangle-free! Appointments are easy to make, the staff are friendly, and the salon is clean and inviting.
I really like to support businesses in lakeside, that is why I first chose sitting pretty and boutique. Sitting pretty pet spa is our doggie groomer of choice every time. BAiR and I love, sitting pretty. We go to this pet salon, Monday's especially you can get a discount on getting your dog's nails trimmed. You can walk in and get your furry Friends nails trimmed for $10 I believe. You will walk in the front counter girl says hello they come out take your dog to the back area you can look at all the little dog toys and dog bones they have and then before you know it they're bringing your dog back out happy as can be. We always make sure to grab a special bone before we leave the salon. They have a cooler full of Bones up front they're very yummy I mean I wouldn't know but my BAiR always lets out a good howl when he gets a bone. They are very very very busy you need an appointment if you want to get your dog's haircut. Don't think you can walk in and get an appointment I have tried many times just because I'm not good with appointments and it's impossible they're so busy so make sure you call at least a month in advance. There is tight parking at the salon there's probably about 5 parking spots on the side of the building other than that you're going to have to park on the street. If you need a dog groomer and you have never been to sitting pretty salon I would recommend, Kristen one-hundred-percent go with. Woof woof
