UK Professional Couple Wishing To See More Of The World!
Fabulous, Faultless Five Star sitters! We were treated to daily photos, videos and anecdotes about our much loved pet, which our whole family could access, and we had absolute confidence that our dog was being loved and cared for as always. It was as if a family member was at home. Local friends saw them out on walks and our dog always looked happy, under control and well cared for. We didn’t meet this lovely couple unfortunately, but they were totally reliable and communicated efficiently to advise of their arrival and departure times, they are super organised and didn’t ask any unnecessary questions. The house was spotless on our return despite the fact our dog moults at this time of the year, all areas were thoroughly clean and tidy, and we had a helpful handover note. We couldn’t have asked for more, and don’t hesitate to recommend Claire & Mike!

CLEAN & CARING housesitters looking for furry or feathered friends :)
Libby and Adel did a fantastic job looking after our cat Kyan while we were away for 2 weeks! The flat was spotless when we came home and we had lots of cute photos and updates while we were away. They were very self-sufficient too. We felt so comfortable knowing that Libby and Adel were looking after our cat. We hope they will be able to sit for us in future! Thank you so much :)

Superb house and cat sitter. We had no qualms at all in leaving Tim in charge. Toby loved him and everything in the house was as we left it.

Friendly, honest and reliable sitter
Lucie cared for my cat several times in the past and she is always so reliable and organised. Plus my cat is often sad when I go away but with her he is happy and eats normally. I can only recommend Lucie to anyone. She also takes excellent care of the apartment and the plants.

I'm a photographer and animal lover *Triple vaccinated*
This was our first experience of using a housesitter and we couldn’t have chosen anyone better than Michael. He was very easy to get on with, reliable and kept us fully informed at every stage of the process. We appreciated him asking if we wanted updates on our pets while we were away and it was reassuring to be sent photos of our cat who clearly made friends very quickly! The house was spotlessly clean and tidy when we returned home - all in all Michael made it a very good experience for us.

Responsible, clean, professional Artist, looking for quiet time to write.
Natalie was wonderful. Left our kitty and house in a lovely state. comms were easy and received updates daily. She was kind enough to stock up on some pet food tins as we'd run out, which we appreciated greatly.

trustworthy sitter and mature, retired female who loves cats and travel
Michelle’s focus was our little cat. She is so organised and excellent at identifying the needs of the cat. The cat was so well cared for and Michelle was a great companion to her. She was respectful of our home, instructions and our pet. We got daily updates and everything Michelle does is about care. To top it off we returned to an immaculate home and a delicious homemade feta and spinach pie! All round a five star.

Freedom is knowing that you can begin again and again and again...
It's been an absolute pleasure to have Simona look after Lola the Cat and the house. Simona is friendly, professional, uncomplicated and a great communicator. It was lovely seeing her bond with my shy cat. The regular photo and video updates really captured Lola's quirky personality. I knew my pet was in good hands. Simona was also very self sufficient and the house was super clean and tidy when I returned. Thank you so much for all your help, Simona. We would love to invite you back for future house sits.

CLIVE & GILL 2 NON SMOKERS AVAILABLE FOR HOUSESITTING. PETS VERY WELCOME!
We met with Gill and Clive prior to our trip and were very happy. They were very friendly and engaging and our dogs instantly bonded and played. Gill and Clive arrived on the day of our trip as planned and provided updates every couple of days during our trip, putting our minds at rest. Upon our return, our house was very clean and tidy and Gill had very kindly provided us with some basic essentials (bread, milk & eggs). Our dogs were happy and it was clear they had been very well cared for. We could not recommend Gill and Clive any higher to other zeewoi members.
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!
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
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!!:)
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Kathy and Ron are the most accommodating sitters you will ever find. At my request they arrived a few days early and also made it clear they would be willing to extend their stay as needed. While at first they were a little uneasy about giving pills to our cat Sparky, they soon got the hang of it and did an excellent job caring for both cats even though the cats have very different schedules and needs. Kathy was great about keeping in touch with us and we knew they would be just fine for the several days when we were out of communication range. I would gladly invite Ron and Kathy back anytime and highly recommend them to you for your next getaway!
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 for free 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 for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Zoey has looked after all our cats (and fish) for many years now. She is amazing and makes going away so less stressful knowing that our furry family are well cared for. Over this time various cats have needed medications and it’s a relief to know Zoey is fully qualified and has it all under control. As a bonus she also looks after the house, security wise. What’s more to love! Can highly recommend.
I’ve used Zoey a few times over the past year or so. Always polite and easy to contact. Having the peace of mind, that my elderly cats can stay happy at home is the perfect situation for all. Very good to accommodate even when it’s a little bit short of notice
This is the first time I have had Zoey looking after my 2 cats. And myself and my husband would highly recommend her. My 17month old cat is not easy to look after if you are a Stranger, but Zoey had patience and persevered with her. We also had updates.I would use Zoey again and again, lovley lady.
This was our first time having Zoey look after our two cats only having moved to the area a couple of days prior. She was so lovely and sent regular pictures and videos of my boys whilst I was away which I much appreciated as it put my worrisome mind at ease. Despite having initial difficulties with administering medication to one particularly grumpy old man, she was really patient and took her time to work out the best possible method without stressing him out too much. Happy to say I came back to two very happy cats :) I would highly recommend Zoey and we'll definitely be using her again very soon!
Zoey looked after our cats whilst we were away - she's reliable and can be trusted to sort out any issues which arise! Would highly recommend her!
Anna sat for my cat for 11 days over Christmas and did a great job. I found my cat happy and well fed upon my return, and Anna had followed all my instructions to a tee.
Zoey took care of our cat during our summer holiday at late notice as our usual cat sitter was unavailable. Friendly, responsive and reliable, I would absolutely recommend her. Thanks Zoey for your help
Zoey did a fantastic job looking after my cats, after enquiring with another cat sitter to learn her son was 13 and would be looking after my cats I contacted zoey as I wanted someone reliable and professional. I am so happy we found zoey and would highly recommend zoey as I. Will be using her services again
Zoey was great! Our cat Milo was very well cared for and happy and the house was kept secure in our absence. Would definitely recommend - many thanks!
Zoey was fantastic. She clearly loves animals and so you know that your cats are in safe hands. We got regular updates and came home to two very happy cats.
Daisy was very gentle and lovely with our 9-month old puppy at her first groom! She listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly what we'd asked - a shorter clip for easier summer maintenance and a spaniel face. The pup came out bouncing and happy, and we really appreciated that it's only one dog at a time so she had a calm and focused experience. We'll be back and would recommend.
What an amazing experience we had with Daisy (and Gail!) at Pet Pack Grooming! We took our toy poodle Coco in for her first cut and Daisy did an amazing job with her matted puppy fur, communicating to us in the most gentle way that we'd need to go a bit shorter than we wanted in order to get the matting out, but we now have a plan on how to achieve the look we want moving forward. Daisy did such a great job and Coco looks adorable, even with the shorter cut. Coco also clearly had a great time there (as did I!) - she was not bothered when I left and she did want to leave when it was time to go- I cannot recommend Pet Pack enough! :)
Gail and Daisy are excellent. I couldn't recommend more highly. Here's a before/after shot from the painstaking hand stripping of our Border Terrier.
Took Dolly my Toy poodle for a groom at Pet Pack.So friendly and They really listen to what you want done. Dolly was super fluffy and needed a lot of work. She looked a different dog and so cute when I collected her. I would totally recommend them
This is the first time for Luna at pet pack, she looked just perfect after the grooming. Very satisfied, thank you.
Daisy was amazing with my Labradoodle, he had a beautiful groom and seemed very happy. Brilliant job, well priced, will be definitely coming back, already recommended to 3 other people yesterday
We have been going to Pet Pack regularly for a few years now and won’t go anywhere else. Daisy is absolutely wonderful with our nervous rescue and he always comes away looking brilliant. Thank you so much!
I never feel anxious when leaving our dog with Daisy. She is so gentle and caring towards her. Our dog always comes out looking and smelling wonderful after each session.
Gail is amazing with the dogs and Missy her own dog is a pure joy to be around and trained so well. Missy loves puppies and just lays down and lets them jump all over her so patiently. Such , calm , kind , charismatic dog.
Amazing service and extremely patient with a very annoying dog! Dog is so happy looking very handsome. Pet pack take time to ensure all needs are met. Would highly recommend their services.
Claw & Paw were brilliant, Brett took care of our cat Kismet for a week whilst we were away and sent daily photo updates which we really appreciated. Previously we have used catteries and he always comes back rattled and unhappy but when we got back this time he seemed very happy and definitely benefited from being able to stay in his own house. Will definitely use Claw & Paw pet sitting again! It was easy to book, and Brett is very trustworthy and our cat loved him!
We have used Brett's service to look after our cat Whiskey for a number of years now. Communication is always good and it's a really reliable service. I would recommend to anyone for peace of mind and a no-fuss experience! Thanks Brett.
We have used Claw & Paw a couple of times when we have gone away. Brett has been super reliable when it comes to looking after our cat Bizara and we really appreciate having someone trustworthy to come into our home and look after our cat while we’re away. His website makes it so easy to book dates in and he gets back to any emails speedily. Will definitely be using Claw and Paw again. Thanks Brett!
Brett was great. Really well organised. Easy to arrange. Came and did a pre visit to check everything out. Felt much happier having someone come in rather than just using the automatic feeder. The cat seemed happy. Would definitely use again.
Knowing our cats are being visited and looked after by Brett while we are away gives us peace of mind, and means we have a little bit of flexibility when we both need to be away from home for work or holiday. We look forward to the photo updates from Brett when we are away!
Claw and Paw are super professional and have looked after our cat Michael really well. Brett met with us beforehand and talked me through the process then sent me pictures every day while I was on holiday. Sometimes Michael huffs a bit when we go away but we came home to a very happy cat. I had to go away urgently after this and Claw & Paw were able to step in and ensure Michael was well looked after. I highly recommend their service!
Brett and Katya are amazing! They've helped us out last minute a few times and always send photo updates of our two cats when we're away. Highly recommend them.
We found Brett at relatively short notice after deciding against using a cattery and couldn’t be more happy with him and his services. He was very professional and asked all of the right questions on the initial meeting such as vet information, medical and food requirements etc. He was able to come at our preferred times to feed and spend some time with our cat and even put the bins out on collection day. He sent us daily updates and photographs of our cat via WhatsApp which is a nice touch and very reassuring. The online portal is great where you can make sure all the information Brett has about your pet is up to date and he has the correct days. The prices are also reasonable for the service. Our cat seemed very content when we arrived back home. We will definitely be using Claw and Paw pet sitting again and would highly recommend.
I can not recommend Brett enough. He is so organised and has been so trustworthy when looking after my cat - he’s really excellent with her. His online portal is really easy to use for information updates and booking visits. He makes sure to update daily with photos. I can not recommend Claw and Paw pet sitting enough.
We are so happy with the service Brett provides with Claw and Paw. Leaving our Cat for a few days can feel daunting but Brett is so professional and communicative that we felt at ease. We knew that our cat was in safe hands and we will definitely be using Claw and Paw again. Thank you Brett!
Nicholas is an excellent dog sitter who we have trusted with our pups, Oreo and Biscuit many times over the years. He always looks after them with the utmost care and sends photos of their adventures together, I have total confidence recommending him to anyone looking for dog care.
We once again used Dogs Conmigo to look after our dog and cat , whilst we were away for a week. Nicholas is amazing with our dog and we just wouldn't leave her with anyone else. We have used him for drop in visits during the week and breaks away, for the past 3 years. It's great to have our pets stay In their own home and always come back to happy pets and a tidy home! Couldn't recommend enough.
Nicholas has been taking care of my dog, Pam, for over 2 years. She’s not an easy dog but Nicholas takes amazing care of her and she adores him. He sits at my place with her and is totally trustworthy and reliable. He has a very obvious love for animals. I recommend unreservedly.
Nicholas is super reliable and takes great care of our pets. He recently saved our holiday by being available for a week’s house sit at the last minute! Not only were we grateful for his flexibility, the house was also in great condition when we got back and the animals were happy and comfortable. We trust Nicholas fully with the fur babies. He also sends lots of photos while we are away, which is always very comforting. Thank you Nicholas!
Nicholas has been sitting my two dogs for 2 years + and can’t recommend him enough. He is great with them and they love seeing him. He is also very dependable!
We cannot recommend Nicholas enough! He has dog sat our 4 dogs. We have 2 mastiffs, 1 Great Dane and a frenchie. My Dane is a nervous dog, within 10 minutes she was all over him, sitting with him, on him. He has a way with dogs that gives us confidence to use his services. I do not know what we would do without him (probably not go out!!) He really deserves this shining review!! 5 star recommendation!!
Thank you for taking such a good care of our maltipoo. Very reliable and caring dog sitter in Bromley. I always feel comfortable knowing that our Lola is in very good hands. Would highly recommend !
Would highly recommend! Extremely good with our puppy -a very calming influence on her. Very professional indeed wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for good care of their pets.
Really great service everytime and my dog absolutely loves Nicholas.
Nicholas is always super helpful and reliable. The pets also love him!
The team at Polly’s Pet Care have been looking after our cats for over 14 years now. We book two visits a day whenever we go on holiday and, in all that time, we have never had any problems. They are amazing people - kind, conscientious, trustworthy, extremely careful and huge animal lovers. All our cats have grown to adore them over the years. Highly recommend these guys.
The brilliant Polly's Pet Care team have looked after our dog for almost 4 years now and I would highly recommend them. Lyra loves all her walkers and they really know and care for her. She's even got her own pillow in the car! The team are absolutely reliable and flexible too if I need to book an extra walk or cancel an existing one.
I have used Polly’s Pet Care for many years now for cat visits and cannot recommend Sam and her fantastic team highly enough. So friendly and trustworthy and their love for animals shines through. They provide great care and I always know that my cat (and home) is in safe hands.
A truly wonderful company! We have been using Polly's Pet Care to walk our beloved little Frenchie and every week he looks forward to seeing them! Sam (Company Director) and Sydney are our main walkers and they are simply wonderful! They are so interested in our little fella, so caring and so loving. They take them out to the best parks and woodlands and always ensure they are scrubbed down before entering the house. We have also used Polly's for house sitting. They were incredibly polite and considerate when staying in our home. We cam home to a beautifully clean place, just how we left it. I couldn't recommend Poly's enough. We tried a couple of companies in the area and they stand out my a mile. Thank you team for being the best there is for out little dude (and for us!)
I can’t thank Sam and her team enough for the great care that they take of our dog. Sam is always at the end of the phone answering any questions we may have. The safe guarding around walking the dogs is second to none and I know that while she is out with them she will not only having fun but that she is on the safest of hands. I love the photos and videos we get sent of her which is such a lovely touch. We have never been let down by the team and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the local area. Well done team, you do a tremendous job.
I cannot recommend Polly’s Pet Care highly enough. Sam and the team have always been very friendly and professional. We have consistently received an excellent service for our Leonberger and it’s apparent that animal care is at the forefront. I have total confidence in them walking our girl and she absolutely loves her walks.
I’ve used Polly’s Pet Care for a number of years, as holiday care for our lovely cat. They are fabulous, he is well looked after & always gets lots of attention, plus we get regular updates and photos. 100% recommended.
Polly's pet care have walked my dog for years. They are brilliant. He loves his walks with them while I'm at work and I trust them completely. Can't recommend enough.
Sam and her team are brilliant; reliable, trustworthy, and really care about the animals they look after. Nothing is too much effort, from sending photos of the cats, to emptying postbox and solving last minute key problems. I highly recommend!
We have been using Polly's for years now and we've always been very satisfied from their service. Lovely people taking care of our beloved cats.
I was away for almost a month, and the service provided by Charlotte and Oliver was fantastic. They sent me pictures each time they visited my home to care for my kitties. They cleaned the litter trays, refilled the water bowls, and even vacuumed up the mess the kitties made! I was truly impressed by their dedication. On the last day, my boy Aspen even let them pet him a little. Thank you both so much! The service was absolutely amazing.
Charlotte and Oliver took good care of our cats while we were on a two week holiday. It was reassuring to get daily updates on WhatsApp. We were thankful they also vacuumed the area around the litter and cleaned their food bowls. I would 100% recommend their service, they're super attentive and trustworthy!
We used Blackheath Whiskers to look after our cat Trisha when we were away for one week. Charlotte and Oliver did an amazing job. They followed all the instructions and sent a short video or photo from each visit. What we especially appreciated, is that Oliver spent quite a lot of time with Trisha. She is very sociable and loves spending time with people. The photos and videos show that she enjoyed Charlotte's and Oliver's company, and we could see that she is much calmer than when we left her with other sitters in the past. We will definetely reach out again when we are away next time.
Thank you so much Charlotte and Oliver for taking such good care of Luna. Reliable and professional through-out, providing me with daily updates which I really appreciated. Oliver also spent extra time with her giving her treats and cuddles. Luna is really looking forward to seeing you again!
Charlotte and Oliver took such good care of our cat Monty whilst we were on holiday. He seemed very content when we came back in the videos we got daily. All instructions were followed to perfection. Key pick up service was great too!! Definitely will book again ☺️
Charlotte and Oliver did a fantastic job of caring for Jinks whilst we went abroad for a weeks holiday. She is an elderly cat of 19 years and very timid however Oliver took him time to allow Jinks to warm up and accept strokes which she doesn't let a lot of people do, which shows how much time and care he dedicated to looking after her. The house was left so clean and tidy. Communication was great as we had regular texts and videos to show how Jinks was throughout our time away. I highly recommend Blackheath Whiskers.
Great cat sitting from Blackheath Whiskers, good communication and flexible availability. Our shy rescue cat was happy to be looked after by Charlotte & Oliver 😺 …
Grateful to Charlotte and Oliver for looking after our two cats while we were away. First time we’ve used the service. We appreciated the daily updates and the cats were nice and relaxed when we got back!
Charlotte & Oliver stepped in to help us with out 2 cats after a last minute holiday booking clashed with our regular sitters holiday. They fed, cleaned & watered as per our instructions and sent a couple of photos which are always appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate in using their services again & recommend them if you're in the SE London area.
I highly recommend Charlotte and Oliver - fantastic communication and they went above and beyond! They took great care of our home and our kitten. We only booked them for a few days but they even changed and cleaned out the litter tray. I will definitely book them again - thank you! 😻 …
We have been very happy with the care that our dog, Henry, receives from Ray. Henry enjoys his time with Ray and is calm and settled when he comes home. He's obviously bonded well with Ray and always runs up to him if we see him when we are out walking. Ray is very reliable and we would recommend him without hesitation.
Ray has a huge amount of passion and knowledge about dogs. I trust him with our dog completely and our dog clearly loves hanging out with him. We've used him twice for boarding and each time our dog comes back seeming v content. I would recommend Ray to any of our friends.
Ray is excellent and you can see that he absolutely loves dogs. Our dog loves him too! He walks our cocker spaniel while we are at work and every night he is nice and tired so we know that he has had a great walk. We would definitely recommend Ray.
Excellent service. Ray is always very professional, friendly and helpful. I have used Ray for many years to look after our cats and he does an excellent job, he will go above and beyond what other services would do.
Ray and his wonderful team have been walking my Doberman for 2 years. She absolutely loves the team and the fellow dogs. They are so friendly and reliable. Would highly recommend.
Knowing Ray shortly before the formation of Petpals Chislehurst, it became apparent that he was born to care for animals. I got this impression from the way he treats his own two dogs, Ralf and Sydni. When he first mentioned that he was going to become a full time franchise owner of Petpals I never had a shadow of a doubt that he would be successful. Knowing his wife and children, I knew that the support that he would receive from them would guarantee that any animals which are under Ray’s care will also be under theirs too, no questions asked, with the love and support that they give their own animals. In June, Ray graciously agreed to look after my two cats and tortoise for a week. During the assessment phase my family and I were all thoroughly impressed in the level of detail that goes into the preparation for Ray to take care of our animals. Ray goes above and beyond to make sure that not only are your animals safe and well looked after, but so is your home. He offered to open and close curtains, turn on lamps overnight and other services to give the appearance that you were at home to deter potential burglars. Upon coming home from our holiday, we found that the tortoise and particularly the cats were not only happy to see us, but disappointed that their new friend, Ray, wasn’t coming to feed, play and look after them anymore. The bond between them is apparent and it clearly not one sided. Ray continuously asks about them when I see him and saves lily leaves for the tortoise, which are a favourite of hers. I would highly recommend to anyone who is planning on looking for any kind of pet care service to contact Ray and will certainly be using his company again for any future occasion where we need any fully qualified and insured pet care.
Ray consistently goes above and beyond to help people and their pets. We have one dog that is quite difficult and Ray has helped us every step of the way. I would recommend Ray's services to anyone with a pet that needs help, whether it's a pet taxi, dog walk or boarding. My dogs love being with him and he's helped us so much.
We have been using Ray and Petpals for a number of years and the service is excellent. He and the team are all brilliant with our dog and both the dog walking and boarding service are so reliable. I cannot speak highly of them enough and would recommend them to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area.
I am so happy with Ray & His family for taking care of my little spoiled Chihuahua Dior-Biscuit wile I was away on my Easter Break. Before I left her with Ray, she was not eating dog food at all and didn’t mix with any other dogs and couldn’t be walked with out a lead. Wile I was away ray sent me videos and pictures of my dog acting like a real dog. Dior was chilling on the sofa with other dogs, eating dog food out the bowl with two other Dogs. Ray took her for long walks off the lead and she loved it, I could see on the videos how happy she was, Dior even gave Ray a kiss on the lips good bye when he drop her back home. I am 100% using ray @petpals Chislehurst again. Thanks Ray for all your training with biscuit xox
Ray has been more than brilliant when it comes to helping me ans my dog Annabell. I would recommend him and Pet Pals to anyone! Totally trustworthy and Annabell genuinely loves him and his family, ever since she has started her walks with him she has nevwr been happier! Wouls totally recommend!!!
Jamie looked after my puppy Morty and he had the best time! Jamie was punctual and communicative, and great with my pup - would recommend!
Jamie looks after my 2 cats when I am away and I 100% recommend him as a petsitter. He is reliable, sends me pics and updates and just all around a lovely human!
Jamie is really professional in his work and clearly has a great passion for animals. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Absolutely fantastic service and the loveliest chap! My miniature Daschund always has the best time going and I couldn’t recommend highly enough. Thanks !
We have a very friendly and energetic cocker spaniel lab cross named Dino. We were really lucky to find Rupert once we moved to the area, and Rupert is now our go-to pet sitter. Rupert is a dog whisperer and you can tell he loves dogs and that they listen to him! Dino loves going to Rupert’s, he literally is pulling so hard as soon as we get near Rupert’s place (and quickly forgets about us too). Dino comes home tired and happy and we can go about our day/travels knowing he’s having more fun than he normally would 😅. Rupert also picks his dogs carefully so that he knows the dogs will have a good time playing with each other if pet sitting times overlap. Highly recommend if you have a playful energetic medium to large dog!
Rupert treats Sid as his own. You can immediately tell that he loves dogs and understands them too. We’re still learning to be dog owners but have no worries leaving her with Rupert all day. She comes back tired and happy and better for her playtime with Rupert’s pals!
Buffy has been with Rupert weekly for about 6 months. She is very particular with who she likes and Rupert is now one of her favourite people. When we get to the top of the road it’s tails wagging and excited squeaks. Rupert has such an affinity for dogs and understands them so well. Buffy can be nervous but she has grown in confidence since being with him. Couldn’t recommend him enough!
We have a really lovely but very anxious rescue dog from Cyprus who is especially scared of men but he warmed to Rupert so quickly and has a great time when he goes to stay with him. It’s easy to see that Rupert really loves dogs and goes out of his way to make them feel comfortable and ensure they have as much fun as possible.
Rupert took great care of Luna our year old playful but energetic cross breed. We had a peaceful weekend and she had a lively time. Would recommend Rupert’s to anyone who would like a peace of mind break. Will do this on a regular basis. Thank you so much Rupert
Micky was a rather nervous and neglected lurcher from a rescue centre who hadn't been suitable for previous dog walkers, who took him out in a van with a large group of other dogs. Since he has been staying with Rupert he has benefited from being in a small group of dogs in a home environment and has gained in confidence. He is now best doggy mates with another of Rupert's regular guests and rather disappointingly for me he often looks like he doesn't want to come home after a day of fun with Cookie and the other dogs! Rupert is relaxed, reliable and flexible, just want I needed. Happy to recommend his services.
Rupert has looked after our dog Arthur over night on a few occasions and Arthur has always had a great time. Arthur has lots of energy and Rupert has always been very calm and patient with him. Its lovely that Rupert always tries to get some other four legged friends over for Arthur to play with as he knows how much he loves other dogs. Arthur is always well looked after and happily worn out when we pick him up. We would very much recommend Rupert's services.
My dog Sky has been visiting Rupert once a week for a few weeks now. She always has a great time socialising with other dogs and going on adventures. At the end of each day we always collect a tired and happy dog. Rupert is very accommodating to the care we need and trust him to give Sky all the attention she needs!
Rupert's Rambles is brilliant. Rupert is such a lovely man and he clearly loves the dogs. Our dog Murphy gets so excited when he see's we are outside his front door and always comes home suitable exhausted from a day of walks and fun. 5 star!
My dog Cookie goes to Rupert's every day during the week for day care whilst i'm at work and he takes impeccable care of him. I feel happy knowing that not only is he getting more than enough walks but he also gets to play with other dogs and gets lots of cuddles! Cookie was a rescue Labrador so quite insecure and very needy (as well as bouncy!!) and Rupert takes amazing care of him. I highly recommend Rupert.
Jade’s service is perfectly professional & faultless, couldn’t recommend more highly. In our case, she gives once-a-day visits to our cat when we’re away. Was understandably hesitant about giving my keys to a stranger, but my worries were alleviated from the first meeting. Look no further if you’re looking for a local pet sitter.
Jade is so lovely and great with our little cat. She was able to help us at short notice and sent us regular pics and videos to reassure us. She is excellent value for money. We will definitely be using her again. A fantastic service for pet owners on the Isle of dogs. Thank you Jade.
Jade, my cat sitter, was absolutely wonderful. She took care of my feline friend with such love and attention. Her sweet and calming voice instantly put my cat at ease. Jade went the extra mile to make sure my cat felt comfortable and loved while I was away. I could tell my cat was well taken care of and happy upon my return. I highly recommend Jade for anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter. Thank you, Jade, for taking such great care of my fur baby!
We are so lucky to have found Furry Friendz! We have used the service three times now. Jade is a reliable, professional cat sitter and we have been blessed since she started caring for our baby when we are away. Our cat is very shy and does not like to have other humans around apart from us. After only one day Jade started taking care of her, she immediately warmed up! Jade sends regular updates when she makes the visits and keeps an open communication, which is really helpful. I highly recommend her, you can’t miss!
Jade took care of our THREE kittens for three whole weeks whilst we were on vacation. Not only did she do a remarkable job, but she exceeded our expectations by performing tasks that we didn't even request of her! Jade is a wonderful professional to communicate with and we are very grateful to have had her taking care of our kittens. Lovely experience, 100% recommend, especially if you're worried about leaving your pets alone!
Jade has been such an amazing cat sitter for our two cats. She has been so good with them and they really love her. We always feel confident that they are happy and well looked after when we are away.
Jade was a brilliant cat sitter, she kept me updated with pictures and messages and gave max lots of attention and cuddles!! Really made a difference knowing max was in safe hands!! Brilliant service
I can’t recommend highly enough. My cats are in super safe and caring hands when I leave them with Jade. The cats are quite shy and a bit nervous of ‘new’ people at first but Jade quickly won them over. To the point now that they aren’t that bothered when I get home! Jade sends pictures and videos, which is a lovely thing to do, as I can see how settled the cats are with her. Cats can’t fake feelings or photos! They play with Jade and are obviously very relaxed. They also love all the attention and treats they get while I’m away! It’s so reassuring to be able to leave the cats at home, with Jade coming in to visit, as they wouldn’t cope well with a cattery. They find it too stressful. It makes a huge difference to me and to them, as I’m not sure I would be able to go away with such peace of mind otherwise. In fact, if Jade weren’t able to visit on certain dates - which hasn’t happened as she has always been available - but theoretically, if that were to be the case, I would rearrange my plans to make sure Jade could look after the cats while I was away 😺
Excellent pet service! Jade is really a professional in caring the pets. We left our cat with Jade and later when we picked up we feel that she was safe here. Jade is very friendly and gentle. I highly recommend her!
Highly recommend- Jade has looked after our kitten a couple of times while we've gone away, and we couldn't be more happy! She's always so attentive and reliable and my cat loves her. I can always trust Jade to make sure my cat is happy while we're away and it makes a difference. Thank you!
Adrienn is walking my two dogs, they absolutely adore her. She is super friendly, reliable and professional. She also helped a lot with the dog training. Definitely recommend 😁 …
Adrienn has been walking our dog for over 18 months now and has also looked after him whilst we have been away, both at her place and at ours. We love knowing that he has a great time with her and Gigi (through lots of updates), and is in safe and competent hands that we can trust. He is super happy to see them and obviously is happy and comfortable in their company. Always happy to accommodate last minute changes too which is helpful with a busy lifestyle!! Would definitely recommend for walks and dog sitting!
Evelin and Adrienn have been looking after our Shiba pup for almost a year and we couldn't be happier with their service. Kind, flexible, trustworthy, always keep us updated and clearly love what they do which shows in how happy and well looked after all the dogs are!
Our Golden Retriever girl loves her walks with Adrienn and the gang. Adrienn is very patient, friendly and reliable. 100% recommended!
Adrienn is absolutely fantastic. She's been taking my dog Belle for the last couple of years and Belle absolutely loves her. She's reliable, is a fantastic trainer and ultimately loved by the dogs. I know Belle's safe with Adrienn which gives me peace of mind Belle's well looked after when I'm at work. I couldn't recommend Adrienn and Lexy Dog and Pet Care highly enough!
Adrienn has been working with our new puppy and has been absolutely fantastic. She is extremely friendly and always available to help! The difference in our dogs behaviour is night and day. Would highly recommend her!
We don’t know what we would do without Adrienn and Lexy’s dog and pet care! Thank you for such an amazing service - we feel confident every walk that our pup Indi is not only in safe hands, but is going to love every minute of her walks with you. If you are looking for safe, reliable dog walkers who understand and love dogs then I cannot recommend Adrienn enough.
Adrienne has been working with our 6 month old Husky pup for around 3 months now and he absolutely adores her. He is always excited to participate in the puppy training sessions and she keeps him motivated, stimulated and thoroughly entertained. He is a very high energy dog and he comes away both mentally and physically satisfied. Adrienne has given both me and my husband great training guidelines both in the session and after in written notes, to help curb his more problematic behaviours such as mouthing and jumping up and he is remarkably better behaved on the lead. She kindly took him for a weekend stay training and he came back to us so happy and well behaved. We are very happy with the service provided and at a very reasonable value. Would highly recommend.
Adrienn is great to work with. She really listens and pays so much attention to the dogs and their behaviour. She brings homemade treats and loads of affection and knowledge to every session. She's helped us with our 2 cockapoos and I would recommend her to any dog owner.
They are absolutely brilliant. We have two jack Russell terriers, and needed some help, Adrienn came to do a 1-2-1 session, after 3 times our dogs behaved totally different. She showed us as well how to train them. Adrienn has an amazing sense of training dogs, very helpful and professional, great knowledge of dog training and dog behaviour. She is extremely friendly. I highly recommend them to everyone.
