I agree with all the great reviews for Cuddles On Call! Megan and Justin did a wonderful job and I…read morewasn't worried about the medicine that my cat has to have twice a day; they were happy to do so, 12 hours apart -- and they are skilled at giving meds in general. They video taped the cats hanging out and getting lots of attention and sent it to me while we were gone. I actually got home a bit early, so it was terrific that Justin could give lots of attention to my male cat (who obviously adored him and wouldn't stop rubbing up against his legs) while I brought my stuff in. Justin even offered to help me unload, but it was even better to see how much the cats loved them! I would recommend them to anyone who has to leave their homes -- it's reassuring to know that pet sitting isn't just a 'job' to them -- they love animals! If I still had dogs, I would also hire them in a heartbeat! Carroll H. PS Sorry it took me so long to post this, guys!

Jenny was quick to respond as we chatted for an hour about an approach, how my dog is, and just covered it all. She came that weekend and as she left, I felt so relieved and calm at the fact that she was going to be my dog walker from here on out. She's very detailed and transparent with everything! Couldn't be happier and I look forward to a long partnership with her.

I will definitely use this service again in the future!!

I wish I could give this company 5 stars. They are responsive and it's obvious that they love…read moreanimals. I called them bc we need care for our two dogs this summer. One of our dogs gets very anxious and aggressive around new people. It takes a long time for him to recognize new people as being safe. One of the caregivers came over for a temperament test and it didn't go well at all. I had high hopes that they could work with him but I quickly realized that they couldn't, and she agreed. The issue is the there is no guarantee that the same sitter will come to your home to watch your pets. I contacted them several months in advance and they still could not work with me to have one person watch my dogs. I understand that this is how they run their business and respect it. That said, I would only recommend them if your dogs are not anxious like mine and are okay with different people coming over to watch them.

They came out to meet the cats and get the instructions for the meds, etc. and off we went. Our friend noticed that "old cat" wasn't doing so hot, but was unable to leave work to take "old cat" to the vet immediately, so we were about to turn the car around and drive the 300 miles back, rather than finishing our vacation. That's when my wife saw that Kelly's Critters offered pet transportation too. We called and they took "old cat" to the vet and no exaggeration-saved his life. They started some new meds and "old cat" is on the mend. The cute videos they send when they visit are precious. They saved the kitty, and I think they saved my wife's heart and sanity. The quality of care was amazing and we'll definitely use them again.

Although a long-time Raleigh resident and dog owner, until May, 2023 I had never used a pet sitter,…read moreand it took me a considerable amount of time, online research, and several extensive interviews before I was fortunate to find Lynn's Compassionate Pet Care. And while my pet care needs were not for the typical reason of vacation travel, but rather due to my surgical procedure and post-op recovery at home, my experience offers an especially accurate assessment of this professional's level of expertise, since I was present during all of her visits! Moreover, having two adult Salukis not at ease with unknown humans and requiring considerably more daily exercise than the average family pet, I had ruled out several perspective pet-sitting companies before interviewing Lynn, who was the only candidate who understood that if a sighthound manages to get loose, chances are slim that it will survive automobile traffic, due to its athletic speed and desire to chase small wildlife. Her rapport with my two aloof girls was miraculous, and there was never any doubt that they were safe in her care. It is no exaggeration to say that I would have cancelled my surgery if not for Lynn's Compassionate Care!

Yes, there are a lot of questions to answer and paperwork to do when you sign-up for service, but everything has a purpose and you'll be glad you went through the process so then, when you leave your pets in their care, you know they're in good hands. They keep you updated, follow through and go beyond the extra mile if needed (if you have pets you know what I mean). The only limitation is that she has a limited coverage area but if you're lucky enough to be within it, you won't find any better!

I always feel a bit guilty leaving my Bengal cat behind when I take off but what can you do? Thankfully, Raleigh Pet Sitters has become a reliable part of the team that makes my traveling life a bit easier with pet-sitting and general home upkeep. Before you sign up as a client they do an in-house visit to first get the details, smart idea. At $19/day for a visit which includes taking care of kitty-fido, grabbing mail and more, I've used them several times over the last year or so. They've been reliable and good with communications while I'm out. They also try to pair you up with the same pet-sitter for consistency which is a nice plus. And if you follow their Facebook page, they post regularly on their visits which is a good way to stay engaged. So overall no complaints about Raleigh Pet Sitters, they have done a very solid job for me and yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll be using them again. If I could only get my cat out from under the bed while I'm gone, now that would be a pet-sitting miracle...
