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.

Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
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.
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
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 Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
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 Zeewoi 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 recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved dog to Taree Boarding Kennels and Cattery on several separate occasions, and I couldn't be more impressed with their service. Located conveniently just 4.7 kilometers from the Pacific Highway, this family-operated business truly stands out in the Taree area. From the moment I dropped off my furry friend, I was struck by the friendly and professional atmosphere. The staff's genuine love for animals was evident in their interactions with my dog, making me feel completely at ease about leaving him in their care. Their personal attention to each pet's needs is truly commendable. One of the aspects I appreciated most was the excellent value for money. With rates starting as low as $20, Taree Boarding Kennels and Cattery offers top-notch service at a very reasonable price. They even provide additional services, such as free hydro-baths for dogs staying seven days or more, which I found to be a fantastic bonus. Each time I picked up my dog, he was happy, healthy, and calm – a testament to the quality of care he received during his stay. The kennels and "kitty condos" are well-maintained, providing a comfortable environment for pets of all kinds. The staff's attention to detail and willingness to accommodate special requests were particularly impressive. They were always ready to update me on my dog's well-being, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. In conclusion, Taree Boarding Kennels and Cattery has consistently exceeded my expectations. Their combination of friendly service, professional care, and competitive pricing makes them my go-to choice for pet boarding in the Taree area. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to any pet owner in need of reliable and loving care for their furry family members. FYI: I have had extensive experience with dogs, having been involved with the Australian Army, Australian Customs Service, and breeding Labrador Retrievers.
Very professional and friendly, pets are looked after. Like their second home and treated very well, my jack Russell had his first stay at the kennels and he was very relaxed staying there , I feel secure that my dogs are looked after in a safe and Clean caring well keeped environment when travelling you know they are in good hands.
Thankyou for helping us out by looking after our baby Bindi. My husband can rest and recover knowing she is in safe hands. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs their baby looked after. Our girl has been there for 8 weeks and receiving great attention and care.
They fitted our dog Cherry at late notice and we couldn't have been more happy with her upon pick up. She was very calm but of course happy to see us. Highly recommended
We have had our twin cross-shepherd dogs stay twice now. This time Saffy had just started medication, she was much healthier after her 4 day visit than when we dropped her off! This and the fact that both Saffy and Spunky turned back for a pat from James before they got into the car told us just how comfortable they felt with their visit. Thank you James and Meaghan for caring for our dogs so well. They’ll be back 🥰
I highly recommended Taree Boarding Kennels. They love animals as much as I do and looked after my baby as if he was their own when I was on holiday. (I actually got him from there as I puppy) I do not trust many people with my dog, but I have no worries leaving him at Taree as I know he will be happy and very well looked after. Thank you all for everything you do for our fur babies.
Would recommend Taree Boarding Kennels and Cattery! A friendly and reliable family owned business who offer an exceptional service. They care for your animals to a very high standard and I feel very comfortable leaving my cats there knowing they are getting looked after very well. We wouldn't leave our cats with anyone else when we go away.
Fantastic family run business! Absolute confidence in leaving my animals in the care of these wonderful people. Meaghan and James are animal loving people with decades of experience and dedication and it shows in the care they took of my fur babies. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️
Always fabulous where my pets are concerned.
James is incredibly flexible and our two pugs really enjoyed their stay including my mum's 16 year old blind poodle. I have no hesitation in recommending James to look after your dog.
Both our pups stayed here and absolutely loved it! Kayla was very informative and helpful through the whole process. We cannot thank her enough for helping us ensure we could go away for a few days without worrying about our pups. Having a GSD puppy, we thought he wouldn’t go as good as he did staying here. The girls working there kept us in the loop when we asked! We have already highly recommended this place to our friends & family. We will definitely be booking again when we need! Thank you guys.
Since 2012 on occasions that I have to go away without my dogs, for whatever reason, which is usually a couple of times each year, I have always boarded them at the Pacific Pet Resort in Possum Brush, so conveniently situated on the southbound side of the Pacific Highway, between Taree and Nabiac. The resort itself is picture perfect and is always in an immaculate showcase condition at all times of the year. The staff are most friendly, caring and importantly, very knowledgeable in the care of both dogs and cats. I know that they only use premium feeds for all animals in their care and any special dietry requirements are happily catered for. A few years ago a friend of mine asked me if I knew of a reputable boarding facility that I could recommend for their precious cat and I had no hesitation in recommending Pacific Pet Resort. On their return my friend contacted me to thank me as their cat was returned to them in perfect condition and health. I recently had to go away again for a week in Sydney and left my precious 6 year old German Shepherd Jax in the loving care of Jayne and her caring, professional staff. During my week away Jayne sent me a beautiful photo of Jax that they had taken letting me know that he was well and happy as I knew very well he would be. I will attach that photo with this review. I thoroughly and without hesitation, recommend the Pacific Pet Resort to anyone seeking reputable boarding kennels for members of their precious furry family.
Very helpful and organised. Our dogs loved their stay and were happy and relaxed when we picked them up. Will definitely let our four legged family members holiday at Pacific pet resort when they can't travel with us.
Tremendous team focused on keeping the dogs healthy, happy and exercised. Rusty our Kelpie loves his visits and I really appreciate the teams’ flexibility when needed with drop off and pick up times. Thank you again. See you soon.
We have boarded our 2 Dogs at Pacific Pet Resort several times now & I cannot recommend them HIGHLY ENOUGH. The Staff are absolutely fantastic with their ‘ Guests ‘ & our Dogs get very excited when they work out where they are going. We have a very anxious, highly strung & extremely reactive Staffy & the staff have said that She is as good as gold for them. The staff are very accommodating of the requirements put forward by the owners & I will definitely continue to use the Pacific Pet Resort because I KNOW IT’S THE BEST IN THE MID NORTH COAST BY FAR.
Jayne and the team take extra special care of your pets. They go the extra mile to ensure your pets are loved and cared for. Cannot highly recommend them enough! We have taken our Border Collie there plenty of times and will continue to do so!
Sent my 2 dogs in for 5 days. Staff are very friendly. Dogs can't talk but they didn't die so all in all its good. Would recommend and use them again. Easy access just off the highway and a big turn around bay if you have a large van
Our dog loved it here and isn’t always social but got along with all the other dogs and was very happy when we picked him up. We were sent photos which calmed our anxiety on his first time in a kennel. Thanks for looking after our puppy!
We boarded our cat and dog for five weeks at Pacific Pet Resort. We were extremely happy with the way our fur babies were cared for. We received emails from Jayne with photos and both pets were happy and well when we collected them. We would definitely recommend Pacific Pet Resort and will use them again in the future.
Very happy. Genuine, as stress free as could be for puppy stayover. I'm considering taking the cats there if I need too. Nice separate cubby boarding. Booked a wash during his boarding and he walked out handsome and calm! Thanks Tim, Julia and Jess. Hint for first timers: bit tricky coming off the highway. Heading south from Taree, you'll see a huge pink number (15095 or something like that) tacked onto a treeb for the neighbours. PPR driveway is about 250m after that. Luckily, the neighbour's entrance (at the end of the line of trees) adds extra space to pull off the hwy. Heading north to Taree: the hwy is dual lane, no warnings - you'll drive past the resort (PPR) and take the next right to do your U-turn at a crossroads junction. When leaving PPR, everyone has to turn left; there's a RH turn soon after, on the hwy, at a crossroads junction, which allows you to turn North again. Just make sure you have lots of traffic space to get across lanes when you come out of PPR driveway ;)
