Christine is an excellent house sitter! She came to watch my cat, Cecil for the weekend. My timing for the trip was messed up on both the leave time and the return time. She was gracious, kind and flexible, and I truly appreciate her for this alone. Her communication was great. She offered to come over to the house before the sit, but since I had just gotten COVID, the visit did not work out. I was able to meet her before I left town, though. We did have an incident where I didn't communicate properly about his outside habits (he did not want to come in and she was ready to call it a night). She went above and beyond!!! Sent me a text message (I was barely in range) and then had her husband come over and try and get the little stinker inside. I learned a couple lessons during her stay about how to be a better host, but she was truly the kindest and nicest person I could ask for to be here! My house was left in excellent shape and she even brought me some homemade salsa from her garden! I highly, highly recommend Christine as a sitter on this site. If you have the opportunity to host her, jump on it. She's exactly the kind of person you want to have in your home! :)
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 19.99 per visit, 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!
Olwen is fantastic! Olwen sat our dog and guests’ dogs at our wedding last weekend and was such a joy to be around. She was brilliant with the dogs and looked after them incredibly well. Her positivity and kindness in the lead up to our wedding and the day itself took so much stress out of wedding planning. Thank you, Olwen, for being a part of our big day!
Olwen was very professional throughout the whole process, from the first meeting until the keys were returned. She took great care in getting to know my cat and making sure she's not just fed but also gets enough pets and attention while we were away. Would happily leave my fur baby in Olwen's hands again xxx
100% trust Olwen with my furbabies. She has walked my puppy, and recently looked after my 2 cats whilst I was abroad. She knows animal 1st aid too. I know they are safe & happy in her care. Chantal Norwich🐈🐈⬛😻❤️ …
Olwen is lovely, Pascal loves his walks with her and she has been very accommodating of his unpredictable and at times reactive tendencies! Super friendly, easy to chat to, would highly recommend her services to others! Thanks Olwen ☺️
Olwen is absolutely fantastic and our puppy loves her, Olwen is all about the dogs and is 100% reliable, honest and her service is second to none. We have now introduced our older dog for walks too.. Both Lola and Daisy look forward to their walks sitting at the door waiting. No hesitatation in recommending!
Olwen has been superb with walking our dog. She sends through updates with pictures of the walks and is always on hand to respond to our requests. I couldn't recommend her enough.
The best in the business!!! No better feeling than knowing your pup is so well looked after. Thank you for also bringing Jinny to the wedding and allowing her to play such a big role. Your help and services were hugely appreciated and we can’t express our joy and gratitude enough.
A FANTASTIC JOB AT LOOKING AFTER AMBROSE AND BELLA
