Critter Sitter of Lexington

I cannot begin to explain how much I love Critter Sitters. To start, spent a lot of time with me (over an hour) on our first consultation learning everything they could about my pets. They were incredibly thorough and asked detailed questions that I never even considered, but which turned out to be important. They leave detailed, daily notes on my pets. These notes include details on conditions they notice such as energy level (once my puppy wasn’t feeling well and was not as exuberant and they let me know), training, and they even updated me on my puppy’s stool when he was experiencing gastro problems. They have even texted me during the day to let me know if something out of the ordinary has occurred (if they are not feeling well, etc). I knew they were doing a great job and I was really impressed with my service, but what completely sealed the deal for me was watching my pets’ interaction with them at their Client Appreciation Party. My pets were ecstatic to see them… we’re talking full on body wags! I was also impressed how each «sitter» immediately knew who my dogs were (even when they were not together) and would introduce themselves to me because they knew my babies. I feel like Critter Sitters truly love my pets and I have complete confidence in the care and service they provide.

Critter Sitters has walked my dog a few times a week for the past six years. We’ve never had a miscommunication or a missed appointment, and I’ve always found a detailed note/​record of the visit. Sarah, Sam, and the dog-​walking staff have been very kind and attentive toward my dog, and they care about her welfare.

I don’t write reviews unless I feel that one is truly warranted. Critter Sitters are the best pet sitting service that my wife and I have ever used… anywhere. They’re very professional, trustworthy, and our furry family members love them. They had a customer appreciation day this afternoon at a horse farm outside Lexington. They had good food, great live music, and vendors that were all of the same caliber as Critter Sitters. Best of all, our Emma and Barrett were so happy to see the actual folks that come into our home and spend time with them. So if you’re looking for a thoughtful and professional pet sitting service, look no further than the wonderful people at Critter Sitters.

I used Critter Sitter recently for my 5 day trip to Atlanta! Sarah and Sam are wonderful and I would absolutely recommend this business, and I have already! Upon my return, my cats seemed relaxed, well fed and the litter box was spotless. I love that they leave daily, detailed updates with time of visit, temperature, mood of pet. Far exceeded my expectations and at a very reasonable rate. I have sang their praises to everyone I know. Wish we could get this quality care for our elderly-​but that’s a different can of worms!

They are awesome! Is that enough? No seriously we don’t know what we would do without them. We travel most everywhere with our two dogs, but we have to older cats that stay at home. It is such a blessing to have Critter sitters and know that our pets are going to be so well taken care of while we are gone. They came before hand to get the ‘lay of the land’ and then send out reminder e-​mails and even text me while Im gone in case the cats are doing something cute or if they just aren’t sure about something. They leave nothing left to question. It is such a pleasure to come home from a trip and know that the cats are happy and the box is scooped! Since we started using them I honestly think our cats look forward to our leaving because they know they are going to be spoiled rotten by Sam and Sarah. I have two more trips booked with them and see myself using them 6 – 8 times a year for sure! I never worry about the cats when we are gone. (I used to kinda worry that our family members that would come in weren’t really doing a great job, especially with their box) but I never worry a bit when I know Sam is coming by daily to take care of our fur babies :)
Thanks ladies! I don’t know what we would do without you!

Literally the BEST pet sitters I have ever used! I’m just sad that we are moving away from Lexington, because Sam, Sarah and their team did the absolute best job taking care of my two dogs during a recent business trip. I received updates by text after every visit, almost always including photos, and returned home to a comprehensive breakdown of all the visits the team had with my dogs, including all the information about the dogs I could want or need. It was very apparent that the team is comprised of pet lovers who truly enjoy their jobs, and who made me feel like my dogs were being loved and well cared for in my absence. On the business side of things, responses from Sam and Sarah were always very prompt, reservations and payment were both easily handled online, and everyone was kind and accommodating throughout — even when we thought our flight might be delayed, Sam was ready with a «back-​up plan» for us in case we didn’t make it home until the next day. Great service, wonderful people, and peace of mind that was worth it’s weight in gold — thanks Sam & Sarah!

Critter Sitters are great and very professional. I feel completely comfortable asking them to pet-​sit for my «zoo» and have recommended them to lots of my friends!

These are the nicest, most trustworthy pet sitters in Lexington. I have known Sam and Sarah for years and never hesitate to recommend them to pet owners.
