Critter Sitter

I would give 6 stars if it were possible.
Patti is wonderful. We left our 11 year old cat in her care for 8 days. The cat needs eye meds and she was wonderful with that. When she came to meet us she gave him is drops and did it with more ease than I do. She gets my highest recommendation. She is professional, caring, honest, responsive. She is the ONLY person that I will ever have care for my cat in the future. When I arrived home my cat was happy and healthy– unlike when I left him at the vet for boarding.

An absolutely fantastic experience all around. It is rare to find someone in Las Vegas you can trust, especially with your home and your pets. Trust me when I tell you that Pattie is that person.
We had Pattie watch our dogs while we went out of town for about 4 days. From the very first appointment, she was completely professional. She came with a packet that outlined all her procedures, insurance information, references, and asked us to complete a questionnaire about our pets and home. She is obviously very organized, which is great. We chatted with her for about an hour, during which she asked us about our dogs, their habits and quirks, and we showed her how to let them out, feed them, and how to operate our security alarm. She even asked if we wanted her to turn lights on/​off, water any plants, bring our paper in, etc!
When we left, Pattie stayed in constant communication. Every time she went to let them out, 3 times a day, she sent me a text update and pictures. Every single time!!! I was amazed and so grateful to know they were doing okay. She promised she would stay at least 20 – 30 minutes every time she went, and she actually did (we have security cameras in our house, so we know she did!) She was always gentle and kind to our pets and respectful of our home. When we got home, we found a nice thank you note from her, and the dogs were healthy and happy.
Thank you so much Pattie for your awesome service, we will definitely be calling you again!

Pattie deserves every star and more for watching our cat and rabbit.
First, she radiates kindness. You know she’s an animal person and she completely understands your love for your furry-​baby-​pet. We did a walkthrough of the home, while I pointed out key areas and favorite kitty-​hiding places. My pets were immediately drawn to her, wanting to sniff her, show off, and garner attention/​cuddles.
Secondly, and most importantly, she is super careful and cautious. She comes with paperwork for you, both informational (with copies of her business license/​insurance and references) and personal (you complete a detailed questionnaire about your pets). She doesn’t wear advertisements on her person or vehicle, so nobody will know you have a professional sitter coming to your home every day. Your key is kept separate from your questionnaire, which means it can’t be paired with your address if the items are lost.
Pattie updated me every single day with photographs and a small story of what she and my pets did that day. I considered her prices quite fair ($ 20/​day to tend to the cat/​rabbit once a day). She helped me feel at ease while I was away and that in itself is priceless.

I am so grateful that we found Pattie to care for our dog, Sheba. It’s been over a year and a half since we met Pattie and we have never regretted our decision. Pattie sends us pictures and text updates about our fur baby after every single walk — they definitely put a smile on my face. She gives so much love and attention to our dog; Sheba loves it when Pattie visits!
In addition to the care she provides to our pup, she is also extremely easy to get in touch with, highly responsive, and highly responsible. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone! She is wonderful! Thank you, Pattie!!!

All I need to say is Wow! Pattie is an amazing pet sitter and an amazing human. If you are at all concerned about leaving your pets while away, you no longer have to be, if you found Pattie with Critter Sitter. She is so professional and comes to meet with you before you leave for your trip. During this initial visit, she discusses her experiences and leaves you with paperwork where you can provide details about your pet and his/​her behaviors/​habits. She also gives you a list of references and provides you with her insurance information to indicate legitimacy. It can be quite scary letting folks into your home and taking care of your fur babies, but have no fear if you hire Pattie. Pattie is upbeat, friendly and warm. While I was away, she sent me texts to update me and sent me photos of my boy Jupiter. That was awesome. When I returned, my house was spotless, Jupiter was happy and I found a welcome home card from Pattie. What I like the most about Pattie is her communication skills and her ability to make me feel relaxed while I was away. I am so ecstatic that I found Pattie with Critter Sitter. Thank you Pattie for being amazing.

Pattie is the best… She is so professional, and she clearly loves her job and loves animals! She has been so great coming to our rescue twice with very short notice when we needed someone to watch our Boxer for a few days. She sends updates and pictures, which is so great when you’re away from your pet. We love critter sitter!

The ONLY PERSON WE TRUST is Pattie! We moved to LV a year ago and had a trip planned months before we moved. But we didn’t know anyone and almost had to cancel the trip! Until I found Pattie with Critter Sitter! She has watched our 2 very needy cats over 20 times. Sometimes for 10 days at a time and sometimes just a day here and there when I go out of town for a night. She is not just a pet sitter, she is family now. Our cats absolutely love her and I think they actually get sad when we get home from vacation! Lol. We trust Pattie with our home and our fur babies. She sends daily text updates and pictures!!! She knows our vet and we feel totally confident she would do everything possible to make sure they were treated in case of any emergency or situation. If you are looking for an animal lover who goes above and beyond, is reliable, available, loving and trustworthy then LOOK NO FURTHER!!! Pattie is THE BEST PET SITTER and we are so blessed to have her in our life!

Pattie is absolutely, hands down, the best pet sitter you could find in Vegas. Pattie has always gone way over and above our expectations, and our pets do not seem stressed when we come home from vacations. We treat our pets like family, and miss them like they’re our kids, so we love the updates she sends with pictures several times per day. This is the second year in a row that we have been lucky enough to have Pattie care for our babies, and we’ve never had any complaints.

We needed a pet sitter when going out of town for 2 weeks, and we were looking for a better solution for our 4 cats than boarding them at a vet’s office. We have a diabetic one who needs insulin shots twice a day, and another one with kidney problems who needs medication in his food, so we needed an experienced person. And we didn’t wanted them to be separated, in small cages, in an environment they don’t know, for so long.
Plus they are all quite loving cats, they need attention and they LOVE people.
We chose Patti after reading the reviews on Unilocal.
She replied fast to my email, came for a consultation… and we knew that she was perfect for us and our furry babies. They loved her at first sight.
Pattie is the most reliable pet sitter you can find. Her professionalism and her dedication are beyond words. She is licensed, insured, with very good references, and she is very concern about the pets.
Not only she did send us pictures of our cats a few times (we were missing them so much, this attention was for us more than a blessing), but she also took care of our mail (so no one would know we were away, and having someone in the house twice a day is also so relieving) and was really easy to contact.
When we came back home, the cats were happy to see us (and they’ve never been like that. They were always letting us know that we «abandoned» them for a few days-​mess, attitude, accidents…-. Not this time.) They were calm and the house was clean! And no vet smell on them. Alleluia!
Her prices are more than reasonable, and the peace of mind she offers with the quality of her services is more than valuable. My cats will never be boarded at the vet anymore. We have our 100% trusted pet sitter now!
We are more than happy we found Critter Sitter. We are blessed!

I wish I could give more stars for the unbelievable service we receive from Patti. I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of respect and appreciation we have for Patti and Critter Sitters. We adopted a 1lb. Feral kitten named Smudge 2 ½ years ago. This fur baby could barely walk or hold his head up. He was in desparate need of love and support and nutrition. I had him for only two weeks and had to leave on a trip. I was so worried as it is extremely difficult to trust anyone to be responsible, accountable and dependable in Las Vegas in general. Patti came right over. She genuinely cared about Smudgie and about us. She wanted to meet us and the kitten and discuss everything that we wanted. She fell in love with our kitten and I could just tell she was going to care for him. She was very thorough in discussing the care we felt we wanted for him. She even asked if we preferred tap water or the filtered water from the fridge, cold or room temp. She asked which vet would care for him in case of an emergency. I just can’t even explain the comfort level I feel. She has had the key to my home for two years now. I travel quite a bit and trust her implicitly. I even locked myself out of the house one day at 6am and she drove over to let me in ! She is just a genuine human being who loves her clients and their fur babies. There is not an ounce of deception or fakeness in her soul. She is a true angel to animals. She sends me the sweetest texts of my boy every time she visits. It makes me feel good to know he is loved while I’m gone. when I return home, he is calm and happy, so I know she has spent time with him. Patti has become part of our family. Our kitten still exhibits feral behavior and he doesn’t take to people easily. You must invest time, love, patience and caring before he shows affection. It took Patti som, but he bonded with her and I feel so comfortable having her to rely on at a moments notice. You really should give Patti a try .Her rates are more than reasonable for the service she provides. SHHH don’t tell her. :) Patti @ Critter Sitters is by far the best kept secret in Las Vegas !

My girlfriend and I needed someone to watch our two cats for when we left town for a week. We were very impressed with
her professionalism and dependability.
She has quite a few clients but was still able to come for a consultation on a short notice. During this she brought all of the necessary paperwork, copies of reference letters, documentation of her licensing and insurance and overall did an excellent job of leaving no loose ends or any doubt in our minds. Her rates are very reasonable and we could tell by the way she was around our cats that she is very good with animals and extremely comfortable around them but more importantly able to put them at ease.
We received texts and pictures throughout the week and as far as we could tell she followed all of our instructions.
Bottom line, it is very difficult to find good and dependable businesses in this city, and Patty was a breath of fresh air. We will most definitely be using her again knowing that we can trust her with our pets and home.

I am so impressed with Pattie and her services. I needed a sitter for my little mongrels and she came to the rescue. I was disappointed when two different sitting services never showed up and another never called back. Pattie met me the same day I called and explained Her services in detail. She was sweet, patient and licensed and insured. While I was gone she sent me constant text message updates and even pictures of my puppies. She kept my house clean and safe, and her rates are very reasonable.
I HIGHLY recommend Pattie from Critter Sitter for all your sitting needs! A++++++

Patti is amazing! She loves Marley like he is her own! While on vacation, he needed a different dog food and she went out purchased it and then sat with him to make sure he ate. She brushes him, snuggles him and walks him. Gives him a bath and sends the best pictures an updates about his day. Her care of him has made going away much more fun. I am always confident that Marley is well cared for and loved. I can not say enough great things about her.

I highly recommend Critter Sitter for all of your pet sitting needs. We have used Pattie’s services twice to watch our 4 cats and she has been punctual and always confirms the dates with us. My favorite part of her service is the text messages and photos she sends after every visit which gives me peace of mind that my «babies» are okay.

Critter Sitter is the best pet sitter. She is kind and caring and I know that I have no worries if I need to leave town because of her wonderful care of my animals. She has excellent communication with me before, during and after.

Once again we needed someone to watch after our little fur balls, we were going home for the holidays. I put in the request about two months prior to our actual dates just to be sure we had coverage during the holidays, and they had no problem with the dates.
About a week before we were to leave I got a confirmation text and we left a note on the counter with the payment as per our arrangements. The prior encounter, we had agreed for them to keep our house keys for future arranged visits.
Pattie is very reliable, does a thorough job, and sends daily up dates and an occasional picture or two. Excellent service, if you thinking about using them, do not hesitate!

Pattie and sister Marie were very friendly, high energy and you could tell they loved their profession, they take notes and are very thorough, I felt very comfortable leaving our two cats and our home in their hands. I would highly recommend them and would not hesitate too call on them again.

Pattie not only took a last minute request from me, she came over for a consultation with just a few hours notice. My cats loved her and her sister, Marie. These gals are real animal lovers who are professional, kind and accommodating. I even got a check-​in text while I was away to let me know everything was ok. I can not recommend them highly enough. If you want to leave town, rest assured your pets are in great hands with Critter Sitter. Thanks, Pattie!

no friends available and we needed to leave town. Oh, no. but then we heard great things about this company.
we called, they wanted to meet and asses my dogs (pitbulls).
she was happy with there obedience, up to date shots and loving demeanor. we negotiated a deal that was fair. upon arriving home I was shocked how thorough she was. she evaluated my dogs every time they were told to go potty. my older dog is all business and back to the door, but my 5 year old like to sniff and chill, then down to business. she also left notes about how to get her trained like my alpha bitch.
what a great service, they won’t even wear a labeled shirt (or car) so people don’t know your gone. they have a great key system so if they are stolen a crook could never find your address.

Even though we lost our last cat (Cleo) and both beagles (Precious & Baby) last year, Debbie from Critter Sitter watched over them with great care while we were away on trips and couldn’t take them. When the animals were getting old and having medical problems, Debbie diligently followed the medical instructions in giving injections and meds. When she learned of Cleo & Baby’s passing, she genuinely cried like they were her own.
I just noticed on the website that it’s Patti’s email address & not Debbie’s. Maybe Debbie sold the business to Patti (not sure). I also saw Cleo’s picture & Precious’s picture on their gallery. :tears!:
If Debbie did sell the business, then I trust that it’s in good hands.
