Cuddles on Call

I’m SOOOO glad we found Cuddles on Call before our recent trip out of town. Being transplants to the area, we don’t really have a group of people in the area we feel comfortable bugging to actually hang out with our cat for a while each day, but with Cuddles on Call we found a service that will do just that! We didn’t want to need to board our cat to keep her safe while we were away; we wanted her to be able to roam around her territory and have her familiar items while getting fresh food and water, playtime, and snuggles. Cuddles on Call did all of that for us. Simply wonderful!
Upon meeting April and Ellen, I was no longer hesitant to leave our cat in their care while we were away. Our kitty warmed right up to them and they seemed to love her too. I already felt like my cat would be confident and cared for while we were gone.
I loved receiving updates each day with pictures. Apart from when I had family actually stay with the cat, this was the first trip I didn’t worry about her at all. It’s nice to really know your fur-​baby is safe, happy and well taken care of instead of wondering if everything is okay.
A week after we’ve been back, I still think my cat is looking for her new gal pal, Ellen, to walk through the door to hang out and play… I really get the feeling they bonded while we were out of town. Next trip, kitty… you’ll get to hang out with your new friend again!

April is best pet sitter I’ve ever had and I think my dogs like her more than me now. She is super attentive and loving and I used her services as often as possible when going out of town.

I have been using Cuddles on Call for cat sitting services for a little less than a year and I cannot say enough positive things about April and her team. I have absolute peace of mind that my cat and my house are safe under April’s care, and that kind of certainty is priceless. April is so loving with my cat and I always enjoy getting picture and text message updates while I am away. I would absolutely recommend April and the Cuddles of Call team to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and loving pet sitting service. I will never use anyone else!

Cuddles on Call has been a godsend for us. April is beyond reliable and it’s clear that she loves animals and that they love her. I’ve used their services twice so far, and I’m hooked. Nothing can replace the peace of mind I get from her texts after she visits the cats, full of photos and even videos sometimes. She’s on top of everything. Even things I didn’t think of, she had covered – e.g. she managed to keep my four orchids alive for two weeks when I was sure they’d die w/​o us here (or let’s face it, possibly w/​us here!).
I can’t overstate how grateful we all are for April and Cuddles on Call. She did more than just take care of our cats (and mail, and orchids, and home) while we were gone, she took care of us too by never letting us get a chance to think «I hope the cats are okay” – b/​f we could think to, we’d have an update from her. And she did so much more than just «feed and water” – she played with the cats, cuddled them, engaged them – and the final product: our cat that loves to pee outside the box when we’re away or when we return from a long vacation, she did none of it. Not once did she pee outside the box and we were away last time for two weeks! Nor has she done it since we’ve returned. Both cats were at a level of calm that we never thought possible after our being away for so long. Oh, and the house didn’t smell like a pet store when we returned either, which it always does after a long trip when the cats get full run of the house. Besides being highly responsible, professional and thoughtful, April truly has a gift with animals that can’t be taught. Our cats absolutely adore her… and accordingly, so do we.

Cuddles on Call took great care of my two pups! The daily updates and photos put my mind at ease. My pups were clearly much happier with their care than boarding. They did a great job of taking care of my house as well. I highly recommend their services.

We have been using Cuddles on Call for almost two years now. I can’t say enough good things about April and the way she runs her business. She’s incredibly reliable, trustworthy, considerate and kind. My dog absolutely adores her, because she’s an animal lover at her core. She treats my pup with the care and love that she treats her own. Who could ask for more?!

We love Cuddles on Call! They come in on weekdays to take our 2 dogs on walks! We’ve used them for close to 3 years– April is amazing and really cares about your pets. She always makes sure to love on our cats too! She’s so attentive, & lets me know how their day is going with a text & pic from their walk, treat time or cuddle time! I would recommend them highly!

I’ve always used Cuddles on Call when I traveled and she has done an amazing job every time. That is worth 5 stars alone (a good dog sitter is hard to find). But, April genuinely cares about your animal. The best example of this was when I found myself in a hospital bed with appendicitis. I was still relatively new in town, so April was the only one I could call to take care of my dog on such short notice. She said not to worry, and she would start doing the usual 3-​walks a day that she does for me when I travel, and would send me the bill after I got stitched up. Then after hanging up, she ran right over to take care of Ada. It would be another 2 days before family arrived, so she was a life saver.
Can’t recommend her enough.

Ashley took care of my bird for a week while I was traveling for work. She did an awesome job! I received daily updates with photos or videos. And it really seemed less stressful for Link than being boarded at the bird shop.

SIMPLY THE BEST!!!
My husband and I have used Cuddles on Call’s pet sitting services on multiple occasions over the past few years for our two cats. April is simply the best and there is no one I would trust more to take care of my babies while we are out of town.
Each day, she stops by to feed them, play with them, take care of their litter and then cuddle with them of course! From the very first time April came over to our house, our cats instantly loved her (which, if you have cats, you know that it’s not always a given)… she seriously is a cat whisperer!
I also love that while we are away, April keeps us informed of how our cats are doing and she will even text us a couple of pics and/​or videos of them while she is there playing and cuddling with them… those texts make me smile while I am away and really give me the peace of mind that my babies are well taken care of.
I would highly recommend Cuddles on Call to anyone in need of a pet sitter :)

April is the BEST!
If it were possible to give ten stars to April I would … pet owners and pet lovers agree on one thing, our pets are our family and we want the best for them. The first time that we traveled away from home without our dog, we trusted April and Cuddles on Call and VERY glad that we did. She sent daily text messages with pictures and/​or videos that helped put my mind at ease that the pup was doing great and April was caring for him as if he were her own.
This past weekend, my 8pm flight from NYC turned into an 11:30pm departure. At last minute, April was available to swing by and let Hurley out for a quick potty break. It is super helpful having someone that cares for your pet in your own home and takes such great care while you’re away.
I highly recommend Cuddles on Call and will never use anyone else as long as I have pets and live in Raleigh!
