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.

It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?

At least £15 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
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 Sittsy 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!
Scott is amazing, my two dogs love Scott. He is trust worthy, always on time and you know that he always give them a good walk, they always come back shattered. Scott has also stayed whilst I was away on holiday, normally I would worry how the dogs were, but didn't need to with Scott.
Scott was recommended to me to house sit my 2 pups just 3 months old. He did a home visit, prepared a full comprehensive contract and kept in touch with me prior to his stay. The puppies loved him and he clearly was extremely attentive to them as they had formed a great bond. Dog sitting rates are extremely competitive and I’m sure the extra work my pups created was not charged for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Scottie’s Dogs to any owner and really look forward to using Scott again.
On first meeting with Scott felt more than comfortable knowing both our dogs would be well looked after. Scott is certainly very caring and has a love for animals and walking, which means we have 2 very happy dogs when he visits. We have now called on Scott's services for dog sitting and walking on a number of occasions and additionally looking after our garden and plants whilst away. Scott is very trustworthy and certainly provides an excellent service. He has built a lovely relationship with both our dogs and I know they are both well looked after when we need.
I can’t recommend Scott highly enough. He walks my dog regularly and looks after him when I go away. Whenever Scott comes to the door Buddy is so excited and can’t wait to go out and have fun with him. Scott cares about his dogs as if they were his own and is extremely reliable, trustworthy and an all round great person!
As all pet lovers know the welfare of their dogs is paramount and finding that right person to look after them should you need to go away is so important. Well we can really recommend Scott! For the first time in a long time since we got our two rescue dogs we were able to go away for a relaxing stress free weekend knowing our boys were being looked after and cared for in their own home. Scott also looked after my tropical fish, kept the house tidy and most of all kept us informed on how our boys were doing. We will definitely be using Scott again. Throughly recommend Scotties Dogs. Karen & Terry
I had Scott take Oscar for walks for a week whilst I had work commitments. During our first meeting, Scott was really friendly and by the way he interacted with Oscar I knew he was going to take good care of him. Scott was really professional and had all the correct forms etc which made me feel relaxed and reassured. Scott was great at keeping me informed during the week and I really appreciated the lovely pictures he sent to me. At the end of the week, when Scott came to return my keys, I knew by Oscar’s behaviour (kept trying to sit on Scott’s lap and lick him) that Oscar really liked him. I will definitely be using Scott and Scottie’s Dogs again in future.
We have a very stubborn English Bull Terrier who decides as and when he wants to be walked. Most of the time he doesn’t want to be walked, much preferring to sleep on the sofa! When Scott arrives he’s over the moon to see him, jumping up and down like a puppy and can’t wait to get his lead on. He loves him. I would highly recommend Scottie’s dogs. He’s very Professional, fully committed and nothing is too much.
Scott recently looked after my cat Belle while I was away for a long weekend. I wouldn’t leave my cat on her own and have someone just pop in and out. She likes company too much. I’m not able to take her somewhere else either as she’d be so frightened. I tried to find someone but it was really difficult to find someone that would stay and look after her in my home. They wanted me to bring the cat to their house instead. Therefore, finding Scott was a real god send. He was really friendly and I could tell how much he loved cats. He always kept me updated when I was away and I loved the pics he sent. The house was kept clean and tidy and I was really pleased with his service. I’m and glad I found him and will definitely be using Scott again in future.
Scott has looked after my cat Radiance a couple of times whilst I have been on holiday. Radiance really warmed to Scott. He has a kind and caring nature towards her. Scott sent me a couple of photos of them together whilst I was away which put my mind at rest. She doesn't sit on anyones lap but mine, but I was sent a photo of her tucked up on Scott's lap. She enjoyed his company. I would recommend Scott for pet sitting and will be using his services again.
Scott is fantastic! Our puppy absolutely adores him. We get updates on how the visit went and always have a very happy puppy when we get back. I would definitely recommend Scott.
The lovely people at We Love Pets Stevenage took such good care of our cat whilst we were on holiday, and kept us updated on their visits with photos and a few words. Very reassuring to know he was well looked after (didn't stop him being grumpy with us when we returned though!!!).
Absolutely cannot recommend We Love Pets Stevenage enough! Personal, friendly & stunning professional service - and I could not have asked for a better place for my little furry friend to be, when not with me! Charlotte & the team took time to ask all the right questions - making sure that my dog was paired with the right person (and he now absolutely ADORES Matilda!). Best feeling in the world, knowing that my doggo is in the best hands possible while we’re away. Beyond grateful for you all! Thank you so much 🌟
After loosing our older dog we decided that our other dog wouldn't cope with being in kennels by himself, so looked for a home boarder. We love pets was recommended to us. We did an over night sleepover and then a day visit to find the perfect match. We went away for a few days knowing our dog was being looked after and cared for like their own. With updates and photo's the whole time reassuring us he was happy and safe. We will definitely be using our home boarder again and would highly recommend we love pets!
So lucky to have found such lovely and caring people to look after our dogs! My dogs are absolutely in love with all the carers and get so excited when they see them! They have always tried their best to accommodate me at short notice when I have needed last minute dog care . Can't recommend this company enough!
We have an elderly golden retriever with mobility problems . We knew we couldn't put him into kennels and luckily found We love Pets , they were so caring . He was looked after in a family home, which we visited beforehand so they knew him , his needs & medication etc. Whilst he was there they updated us with photos so we knew he was happy and we could relax in the knowledge he was being well cared for. We would thoroughly recommend their services to anyone looking for home care for their fur baby !
We used WLPS to look after our 3 cats while we were away for a week. All our requests were taken care of and I have already booked them again for the next time we are away. It's nice to have found reliable and trustworthy people to look after the cats.
WLP have been fantastic in looking after our tortoise. Since we go away a few times a year, it’s a comfort to know there’s someone reliable and friendly available. Our tort is on good hands!
We have been using the pet sitting service for a year now and we could not be happier. Thor loves going there every week and he alsways comes back home a happy boy. Charlotte is always very responsive and willing to help with requests and the sitters are wonderful with Thor, so I feel peace of mind when he is there. The only thing I would change is having a more flexible cancellation policy, hence the 4 starts.
For our 9-month old dog first night away we had been very pleased with Charlotte and her team. Tasha has been great and did a wonderful job at caring about our dog like it was hers. She’s kept me informed regularly how she was doing through quick chat and photos sharing. Our dog had a great one night stay and we peacefully enjoyed our night out. Thanks a lot Tasha!
Very happy with our cat sitting service, Charlotte was very friendly and professional. We got regular ups dates while we were away and I felt confidant our cat was in good hands. I would highly recommend We Love Pets to anyone needing a sitting service.
I would 100% recommend Serena for her services at Poochie Mumma. Both Serena and her daughter care for my dog as though she were their own. I have a 15 year old Yorkshire terrier who no longer enjoys long walks and is frightened of dogs, so Serena visits Lulu whilst I am at work to let her out and spend some time with her. It is clear that Serena totally loves the dogs she looks after. I receive a photo for every visit which brightens my day at work and puts my mind at ease that she is ok. Serena has also made emergency visits if I am stuck in London or if I need emergency dog cover. Serena is kind and very reliable, Lulu absolutely loves when she visits!
Serena took care of our dog Max when we travelled to Australia for a family wedding earlier this year. She is very professional and you can see how much she loves her job. Whilst looking after Max we received videos on a daily basis showing how much fun he was having out walking 2 or 3 times a day with other dogs. He had the time of his life. Also while we was away , our flights home were cancelled due to covid 19 and Serena was extremely supportive and looked after max while we was stranded. I couldn't recommend her enough and we will definitely be using her again.
We left our 11 month old cockapoo with Serena/Poochie Mumma for a week. We had looked at a number of other dog minders as we were very worried about leaving our baby for the first time but as soon as we met Serena we knew she was the one for us! She treated our dog to a 5 star service....like a member of her own family. We were very pleased to have daily updates on our dog, lots of amazing photos and videos of her not missing us at all! I She really enjoyed her time with Poochie Mumma and we have already booked with her for next year!
I recommended Poochie Mumma to my elderly neighbour who needed dog care whilst she was in hospital. Serena came to visit my neighbour and meet her very anxious Jack Russel Harry. Serena was very patient and oozed a calmness that settled Harry and made my dear friend and neighbour comfortable about her taking care of him. Serena had Harry for a week and from what I heard it sounds like he had a great time. The best thing to come from this is that Harry is now happy to leave my friend for periods of time without becoming distressed. Serena has continued to walk him 3 times a week and I often see her come to pick him up... his tail is always wagging and he is excited to see her. My dear friend is relieved to have such a reliable warm and kind person to take care of her little Harry. So this review is from us ... Margaret, myself and a very happy Harry!! Poochie Mumma is without a doubt a 5* service.
Serena & her daughter both came round to meet my dog before looking after her for the night. She immediately warmed to them and I knew she was in good hands. I was able to keep my dog at home which suited her perfectly as she’s 13 and loves her home comforts. Serena sent pictures of my happy dog out for their morning walk which was a lovely touch! So pleased we found someone reliable :)
I can't recommend Poochie Mumma highly enough. I spotted her branded van parked up at the exact time I was looking for a reliable local dog walker. Serena visited to meet Sophia (our mixed breed rescue dog) and immediately Sophia took to her. Initially Poochie Mumma would pick Sophia up on the day to take for amazing, fun & long walks (sending me photos of Sophia enjoying herself). A change of job meant that our dog now goes to Poochie Mumma for several hours each day and she always has a fun time, receiving plenty of exercise, love and attention. Poochie Mumma has always been reliable, has been flexible when work plans have changed and above all has taken care of Sophia as if she was one of her own dogs. If you're looking for dog day care, boarding or walking in the Stansted area your pup will be lucky to have Poochie Mumma take care of it!
My dog Ernie has been walked by Serena and stayed with her on occasions when work has taken me away from home, Serena has always been reliable and makes Ernie a big part of her family. I always receive daily photos of Ernie enjoying himself which is fantastic for me to see. I whole heartedly recommend Poochie Mumma!!
I only have left my dog with family, but this time no one was available to have my staffie, she is a spoilt dog , so I was worried about leaving her, as she doesn’t like me leaving her. After being recommend by a friend from work. I met , Serena , and felt happy my dog will be well looked after. And My dog seemed happy once collecting her and she said she had been on some great adventures, so my dog, tells me lol . I will be using her for future holidays 😃
Serena is fantastic with the dogs. My nervous pup took to her straight away and is always so happy to go on her walks and to go stay with her for the day. I'd highly recommend.
My two little dogs absolutely love their visits to and from Poochie Mumma. Serena is so flexible and accommodating and can walk the dogs if I get stuck at work even at short notice. If I could leave more than 5 stars I would... Great service!
John and Elaine have looked after our grey for as long as we've had her, and they always look after her so well and are so friendly and personable as well! Our dog walks straight in to the kennel with no coaxing - if that isn't praise I don't know what is!
Highly recommended. We are very grateful to John for accommodating us last minute. We are also very touched by his kindness and understanding showed to us when our plans changed unexpectedly. Heart of gold, thank you so much.
Monty loves his stays with John and Elaine at Exclusively Grey. We are so Lucky to have them locally. Boarders and lovers of greyhounds and affordable.
John and Elaine are great. This is our preferred Kennel for boarding our greyhound when we go away. Stevie enjoys his time here every time, the kennels are huge, warm and have beds that is big enough for at least 2 greyhounds to sleep on and they get walked which is a great bonus. We recommend this place to anyone near us who owns greyhound and needs boarding.
John and Elaine are just amazing people who love our pointy nosed friends. My dog Teddy is always well looked after when he boards with them. The kennels are big warm and cosy and have music playing to keep the dogs calm. Exclusively Grey has been a real lifesaver for me and Teddy. I can leave him knowing he is being looked after. I would never consider putting him in a mixed dog kennels. Thankyou John and Elaine
This is the second time that we have left our greyhound Tilly here She always seems to enjoy herself and is looked after very well by John and Elaine.We never have any problems when we bring her home afterwards so we would recommend Exclusively Grey Regards Colin
Absolutely amazing place for Freddie and Rayna, John was extremely hospitality and with his years experience it made us feel extremely relaxed leaving our greyhounds knowing that they were in safe hands. When we picked up Freddie and Rayna they almost seemed a little disappointed to be coming back with us and leaving there holiday. Once again thank you very much John!
John & Elaine were fantastic helping us adopt our greyhound over 5 years ago... We couldn't think of any one better to board him with for our holiday! They were loving & kind & looked after Buster as he was one of their own!
We've boarded our dog here several times, from a weekend to a fortnight and we couldn't be happier with it. Chappy seems very fond of John and its clear they understand and love greyhounds there.
Dogs love it here. They are well looked after and given medication as directed. One is a faddy eater in kennels and they try hard to tempt her to eat offering different foods. The dogs are also taken for daily walks which they obviously enjoy
Thee best place to have your little darling looked after. Wendy is the best, most attentive dog sitter. Better care here than at home with lots of walks and play with Ivy Schnauzer
Wendy is an absolute star, treating your dog like one of the family. 100% reliable - highly recommended.
Why have you done this? I don't know who you are. Has your dog ever stayed with me? If so, please don't be so cowardly, tell me why you have only given me 3 stars.
Thank you, Fred
Janey has been very accommodating with my mini schnauzer. Her dog Yogi is amazing with mine and they are best friends already. Janey’s prices are very competetive, she goes above and beyond with her care, check ins and photos / videos and nothing is too much trouble. Good luck with your new venture, you’ll smash it
We are so greatful we have found Janey, Stanley adores her & gets so excited when we tell her she’s on her way for walkies. She is always reliable & we know she cares for Stanley like he was her own dog! Highly recommended
We enquired with Janey’s Doggy Services to look after our Frenchie - Luna whilst we were at a wedding. Janey did everything perfectly and by the book, we arranged two pre-visits so Luna could become comfortable with Janey and her house, we discussed her needs, behaviours and feeding habits and she made us feel extremely confident with leaving Luna with her for the 2 nights. We received constant pup-dates via whatsapp and was always available if we felt like getting in contact. We got Luna back on the Sunday with a spring in her step and she can’t wait to get back to “Luna’s Hotel” :) 10/10.
We are so grateful to have found Janey, she has been everything and more, that we hoped for from a doggy care service. We never have to worry when we leave our nervous dog with her, she has made him feel so welcome and is always providing us with regular doggy updates. If it’s a last minute ask or change, Janey is always flexible and will do whatever she can to accommodate us - she really is an angel. Finding the right doggy sitter is very overwhelming but you are in very safe hands with Janey and her little fur gang.
Janey took care of our spaniel Millie for 4 nights, it’s the first time we’ve ever used a dog sitter and she was brilliant with her, and sent regular updates. A lovely lady who I would highly recommend 💕 we’ve booked in again for the summer, it’s great to have found someone who we can now use on a regular basis. 🐶 …
Janey helped us with boarding last minute. Understood Lola’s fear of big dogs. Lola had a wonderful week with Janey. I was kept in touch daily with photos or videos. This put my mind at rest. Lola came home happy and full of joy. Thank you for loving my girl and keeping her happy and safe. Highly recommend. 🐶 …
I am delighted with Janey’s.care of Zelda. I have absolute confidence in her care and can’t recommend her enough .
Not to be trusted at all. Will probably steal your dog as she likes to steal all things that arnt hers and has no shame in doing so. Beware
Janey has been brilliant walking and looking after Pebble - who always comes back home full of beans after seeing her!
Janey has been great with my dogs, they love seeing her whether it’s for walks or drop in feeds. Such a great service with lots of passion
Fantastic dog hotel with amazing owners! I left my husky there for over two weeks, and he had an incredible time. He was well cared for, and I loved being able to see regular photo updates on their social media. I didn’t even feel the need to check in because I knew he was in great hands. Thanks to them, I had a completely stress-free holiday without any worries about my husky’s wellbeing.
Just wanted to recommend and share my experience with fellow dog owners. Wow. This place is AMAZING. They treat your dogs like their own, my dogs never want to come home 😂🥰. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I just can’t recommend these guys enough, Gemma and Brad are such amazing people. Also… the value is amazing! £15 for 6 hours !! I work long hours so this is amazing for my two babies . The dogs have their own beds and tvs in their rooms.. they are never shut in and have fields to run around and play in all secured. If you want your dog to be in the best hands then buttsniffersdoghotel is your place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🩵💙
Brad and Gemma are both so lovely and they have created the most amazing dog hotel! After visiting with my puppy on the weekend I immediately booked her in for doggy day care and for a longer stay in the summer. They have created a calm but fun environment for the dogs and my puppy Mika absolutely loved them both. It's most certainly not a kennel. Instead there huge enclosed fields, doggy tv and beautiful beds for the dogs to sleep and chill out on after all their running about. I hadn't ever really considered doggy day care but I will now most certainly do it for when I work in London. Thank you Brad and Gemma for the wonderful home you have created for the dogs.
Fabulous hotel Brad & Gemma are truly one of a kind dogs are all happy well looked after definitely would use it for my puppy can’t recommend high enough
Picked up our little lab after 8 nights with Brad & Gemma and it's safe to say he had the best ever time. They have created something pretty special, a super safe, fun environment allowing dogs to do what they do best...be dogs! You will not be disappointed leaving your pooch here :-)
Our two dogs love going to Butt Sniffers. They come home exhausted from a fun day playing with their pals and getting all the love from Brad and Gemma. One of our dogs is quite shy and nervous and he's really grown in confidence since spending time there. We only moved to the area recently and were worried about finding somewhere suitable nearby. We needn't have worried, from the moment we first dropped them off we were at ease, it is obvious that Gemma and Brad absolutely love dogs and love what they do. We wanted somewhere where the dogs are treated like part of the family and that is what we got. They are always quick to respond and really flexible, which has been so helpful for us whilst we're having work done on our house, as we don't have to worry about the dogs because we know they are in great hands. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Butt Sniffers!
Wow! Really lovely people and fantastic facilities. Our 7 month old pup went for doggy daycare and came back tired and very waggy - she had even had a good brush. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to any dog lover - look around for 2 minutes and you will be able to totally relax about leaving your pet. We will definitely be back!
We love Butt Sniffers! True dog lovers and wonderful people. Thank you so much for looking after my pooch so well.
Thank you so much Brad and Gemma for looking after our spaniel pup Margot, she’s had the best week staying with you and she’s come home totally shattered… which is a first!! She looks forward to her next stay!
We have nothing but praise for Brad and Gemma. They have been so good with our dog Lottie, she has had a fantastic time there over the past couple of days. She will be going back next week, I cannot recommend them enough, you dog will have a great time 😊 Mandy Hursey x …
Hayley is great. She provides lots of updates and is super responsive when organising dates for day care. She tries to be flexible where possible which has been a godsend when I started a new job and didn’t have full control of the days Patrick would need looking after. Patrick adores going to day care, spending time with his little friends but also snuggling up with Hayley. I would highly recommend Fido & Friend's to anyone looking for dog care.
Amazing service, our dog loves his visits to Hayley and Craig at Fido & Friends. We know he will always get a great walk, and being very needy, he gets plenty of attention and cuddles throughout the day! During his stay Hayley provides WhatsApp updates of photos and videos which we love as it's always lovely to see how much fun he is having. Would highly recommend!
Hayley is brilliant with our little Spencer and he loves going for day care every week when I'm in work. We also get to see loads of pictures of him with his friends on the Instagram & TikTok!🐾 he's also enjoyed overnight stays too! …
Our Charlie is super happy playing with all of his friends.Lovely long walks with plenty of photos and videos through out the day. We are so glad we found Fido and Friends because we know all the dogs are happy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hayley has looked after our little rescue dog a few times now whilst I've been away on holiday and I know he is always having a brilliant time. Hayley is super attentive to the needs of each individual dog to make sure they are happy and safe, so I know my boy is getting the same level of attention and fuss he would do at home. He loves playing and exploring with the other dogs, especially Little Dave! And Hayley sends lots of photos and videos so you can see what they are getting up to! I would 100% reccomend Hayley to look after your dog. Fred can't wait to stay again 🥰
This was buddy's second staycation with Hayley, Craig, little Dave and Charlie ( the dogs) he was very excited to return. Hayley runs a very organised and professional pet care service. From the moment your beloved pooch goes into her care, rest assured you will know that they are having the best time ever. I was updated all the time with fabulous photo's of buddy enjoying his time with the other doggy boarders and little Dave and Charlie. I could go away knowing that i can safely say that buddy was in the best hands and having a wonderful time. I would thoroughly recommend Fido and Friends ❤ thankyou so much for the care you provide.
5 Stars are just not enough to give Hayley & Craig they go above & beyond looking after our Charlie boy he is so happy being with them it’s like his second home & we receive so many updates, videos & amazing photos I cannot thank them enough for looking after Charlie so well xx
*** Awesome service! *** My dog has been walking with Hayley and her dogs for a few months now and she absolutely loves it. It’s nice to see the videos, photos and updates after her walk. :) She gets to play with lots of dogs on a regular basis which is lovely to see. On the odd occasion we need to change the day, Hayley is very accommodating and offers alternative days if she can. It’s nice to know she is local and only does this side of Chells Manor Stevenage which means my dog isn’t in the car for long. Hayley gives plenty of notice of her holidays book which means I can sort alternative plans out well in advance. I know my dog is safe, happy and well looked after when she is with Hayley. I would definitely recommend her services :)
My dog loves her time she spends with Hayley, Craig and their lovely dogs at Fido and Friends. My dog is a Romanian rescue and Hayley has spent so much time getting to know her and now she has flourished in their daycare and boarding. They go on lovely walks and countryside adventures followed by rest, fuss and lots of attention in their lovely home. I don’t know what we would do without Hayley and Craig, my dog sees them as her second family and gets very excited when the car pulls up outside their house!
My dogs love going for a. Adventure with Hayley and co! Hayley sends great pictures of the walk and the dogs are always tired afterwards. I get a report on how they have been and it has really helped with their confidence and being more social with other dogs. I highly recommend Fido and friends for fun walks with people who really love dogs.
Truly remarkable is one word amongst many that springs to mind to describe this day care for pups 🐾If it wasn’t for Happy Hounds I wouldn’t be able to go into the office knowing my beloved Nova is cared for 🥰 and feels secure. She suffers from anxiety and cry’s non stop if left alone so this place is a life saver. They literally love her like she was there own. I love the little updates they do especially the effort they go to for Birthdays I’m definitely booking Nova in for her puppy birthday just so she can eat cake and wear a silly hat 🎂
Happy hounds is the best doggy day care in Herts. The team are absolutely fantastic! My pup adores trotting off to day care and playing with all the other dogs. Her confidence has improved so much. The enrichment they provide for the dogs is amazing (they have given me a lot of ideas of things I can try at home to keep my pup entertained) The pupdates and little photoshoots they do are brilliant. The set up is very well run and organised and you know your puppy is in great hands. The booking system is very user friendly, and they are very reasonably priced. If you need a doggy day care send your pup to Happy hounds, where the team will love and care for your dog as much as you do. You won’t regret it! Couldn’t recommend them enough. 5*
Happy Hounds Herts has truly become a second home for our little Betty, and we’re so grateful to have found them! From the moment we drop her off, we know she’s surrounded by people who genuinely care for her as if she were their own. Betty absolutely lights up when we arrive—she can’t wait to get through the door! The team at Happy Hounds Herts gives her all the love, attention, and care she needs. It’s such a relief to know she’s in such good hands, and she always comes home happy and well-exercised. We couldn’t ask for a better place for Betty. Thank you, Happy Hounds Herts, for all that you do!
We have been using Happy Hounds for our dog, Rupert, for 3 years and we cannot fault the care at all - it’s second to none. Georgie and the team cater to not only our dogs (particularly fussy) needs but to all of the dogs. They provide a detailed handover at the end of the day with details of Rupert’s escapades and particular achievements of that day, and also quickly address and follow up any concerns that they may have. There are also photo and video updates each day to keep you updated on your dogs’ day. They provide a stimulating, varied environment but also ensure that all of the dogs participate in rest time to ensure the dogs get the rest they need and do not become overwhelmed or overstimulated. Our dog absolutely loves attending daycare, he cannot wait to get out of the car when we pull up and races to the door, pawing at the gate if one of the girls are not (in his opinion) quick enough to let him in. They have high expectations of each dog’s’ behaviour to ensure that all are safe and happy at all times. We can’t thank each and every one of the team enough for their continued hard work🐾
Love the flexibility! I love that you can book on an app and reschedule etc (within reason of course!), and know that my dog will be well looked after and come home content and tired from a days play. Also the photo updates, esp birthday and Christmas photos are my absolute favourites
We (Tulips & Tails Pet Photography) have now done three Photo Shoot days at Happy Hounds and it is clear to see that they have a great understanding of doggy behaviour and enrichment. The pups all seem happy and confident and the staff are all great with them and very clearly understand all of their individual needs. The owner Georgie is very helpful, well organised and runs a tight ship! We can't wait to come back again next year!
Milo thoroughly enjoys his days at HHH he loves all his Aunties that work there . Milo suffers with separation anxiety but will happily attend daycare . Nothing is too much trouble for Gemma and the girls who go out of their way to look after the dogs in their care. Wouldn’t know what to do without them. The Hudson’s
We have been so happy with leaving our pup at happy hounds. We were worried about leaving her but ever since we met with the team and she had her settling in days we haven’t looked back. Highly recommend ❤️
Amazing doggy day care! Our dog has been going to HHH for almost 2 years and she absolutely loves it. The staff are all kind and caring. They go above beyond for each dog’s birthday and you get to see photos of what they get up to everyday, which is just wonderful. We couldn’t be happier with HHH’s services and can’t thank everyone working there enough for creating such a wonderful atmosphere for our dog Luna. X
Best doggy day care! Nancy loves going and I know she's incredibly well looked after. She always comes home happy and tired! Extremely professional and all the staff are very kind and friendly. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Happy Hounds!
We have used Dawn's Pet Sitting Service for close to 10 years. She is reliable and so conscientious. She has been with us through three cats and has loved them all! Highly recommend.
Dawn was amazing looking after our three cats for two weeks. Kept us informed and we came home to three very happy animals.
Excellent service.
