Former Minister/American Ex-Pat Looking for New Pet Pals to Meet and Love
Another wonderful sit by Charlie. The pups are so content with him and the regular updates we receive just show how happy they are! House was spotless and I really cant emphasise how lucky we are to have Charlie.

Julie and Robin's pet sitting profile
It was so lovely to have Robin and Julie house sit for us. The cats adored them and were well looked after. The house was immaculate when we returned and they were very self sufficient. We hope to see you both again sometime

Tanya & Marc...here to help!
Tanya and Marc were great, from the moment we spoke to them on Zoom. We had to a virtual handover due to an early morning flight. They kept us up to date with cat updates, they were really understanding that Yeti didn’t want to come and say hi and made sure he was comfortable outside by putting food out for him everyday. Tali loved the extra attention and I was so happy to come home to a clean house with their sheets and towels clean. Would highly recommend them and would happily have them back.

Friendly, responsible couple who love animals and travel
Stephen and Sarah were absolutely fantastic! They sat for us for 5 weeks and looked after Maple brilliantly. Communication was fantastic with updates throughout the week with photos! The house was immaculate upon return and they even left us dinner for that evening so save us going shopping after travelling and some treats too! The love and care they showed Maple was the best and Maple was super happy and settled with them both. Thank you for everything, we would have you back in a heartbeat xxx

Jordan and Marta are simply the very best house sitters. They cared for Martha our cat and she was obviously smitten with them. They kept and left the house immaculate, even down to tidying our knife and fork drawer!! We would have them back tomorrow to look after us, let alone the cat!! Fantastic sitters.

CLEAN & CARING, THE PERFECT HOUSE SITTING PAIRING
Abbi and Martin were fantastic house and pet sitters . They are very experienced at house sitting and their confidence showed through . They were reliable, organised , good communicators both before the sit and during . It was helpful to meet them both in person just before we departed for a weeks’ holiday . They were both very warm towards us and more importantly our 2 dogs and we left without a moments hesitation about leaving them in our home with our boys . It was evident from the pictures we received and how the dogs were upon our return that they had been well looked after and had lots of fuss, snuggles and walks . The house was also immaculate. Would have no hesitation in recommending this fab couple . Thanks guys, we hope to be able to use you again !

Retired, professional couple with lots of housitting experience home and abroad
Kaye and Peter are a super couple and we would highly recommend them as pet sitters. They arrived a day in advance to meet us and our pets. We immediately got on well together and they were very at ease with our motley crew of dogs. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they went above and beyond. A very big thank you to them both for choosing to sit for our pets!

Rory and his family were wonderful! From their communication, to the care of our dogs, to the cleanliness of the house upon our return, we couldn't have asked for better sitters!! Would definitely work with them again in the future!!
Reviews from Cat Owners
Tim
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
Phil
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!
Amneris
Ally was great! We got to meet for a few minutes before I headed out and I felt super reassured that both Goose and my home were in good hands. My cat is picky when it comes to strangers, but he was comfy in Ally’s lap right away the first night! She communicated well and sent cute pictures while I was away. My home was clean and Goose was happy when o got back. I highly recommend Ally as a sitter and she’s welcomed back anytime!
Esther
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.
Nina
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.
Patty
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Brandon & Travis
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.

If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!

Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Phyllis and Alan
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)

End Cottage Kennels
Recent Reviews:
We have boarded our dog with End cottage now 3 times. First over night and all day, 2nd time was just day boarding and we recently boarded her for 3 nights and 4 days. Our dog Luna absolutely loves going to stay with Helen and Tony. The level of care they give is amazing and I can't recommend them enough. She comes back looking amazing and always has a spring in her step. Thank you for always managing to fit Luna in and Luna says she will be back soon. ❤️
My dog has just come back after a weeks stay with helen, Tony and their team. I can not thank them enough, sasha looks amazing she has a spring in her step. I wouldn't trust anyone else with our fur baby. We travel for just over an hour to get there and it's worth every minute . Amazing ❤️❤️💚🐾🐾 xx …
Great kennels, heated beds, fantastic staff. Bailey is always happy to go for a visit and he's happy and healthy when he comes home. Fabulous!
Took our dog Delta there for the first time, we were a little nervous as the last time she was in kennels she didn't do so well, but she was great here, the staff are very friendly and really know their stuff! She came back happy and healthy and she'd had a nice groom while she was with them too! 10/10
We were looking for a kennel to leave our dog when we left for a holiday. We found End Cottage Kennels and decided to take a chance. They had pretty good reviews so we weren't really worried. When we got to the kennel, we were greeted by a very accommodating staff and led us to where our dog, Alphonse will be staying. It was a great room (not a cage), where he had a bed and a television that was on 24/7. We brought Alphonse's bed, food and water bowl - which was totally optional because the kennel will provide everything - even the food. Being dotting dog parents, we decided to bring his stuff. The kennel had a great schedule for Alphonse while he was staying there. He had scheduled walks, he was fed according to our instructions, and a lot more. Now we have a trusted place to leave our Alphonse whenever we leave for holiday. The staff is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend!
Best kennels we have used, our rescue dog is very nervous and has had some difficulty with new people and places, but he has come back happy from every visit to End Cottage. Wouldn’t take him anywhere else now, highly recommend.
Great service. It was a first time for my dog to stay elsewhere and I worried how he will settle. He seemed happy when I collected him. Had no issues going for walks, taking medication. I would definitely use your services again. Thank you
Wow, what a wonderful, friendly and caring place. My dogs were looked after well and were fit and healthy after their holiday. One dog is blind and diabetic, which was no problem for them to give insulin twice per day. I cannot recommend enough. VW fans too 👍👍
Looked after so well. Dogs are happy here and if they are happy we are.
I highly recommend End Cottage Kennels! Run by very nice people who take profesional care of the dogs🙂 Our dog always comes back happy and well maintained. 10/10 …
Dog Club Derby
Recent Reviews:
We used Dog Club Derby to bring our special furry baby Hamish to our wedding and it was amazing! Lauren was an absolute dream, she took Hamish home with her the day before and spruced him up. On the day, she arrived in plenty of time and was a helpful and calming influence on our usually bouncy and boisterous son. 🤩 thanks to Lauren we were able to get some beautiful photos with Hamish before Lauren took him back to hers to chill for the rest of the day. She then dropped him off the day after, all fed, watered and well taken care of. I would 100% recommend her if you’re thinking of having your bestest furry bud at your wedding or any other event.
Lauren is amazing! Highly recommended! Huxley my red fox lab goes mad when he knows his going for walkies with dog club! Always get cute doggo pictures with updates 😁 …
Lauren is so good with my Vizsla, reliable, flexible and professional. She sends photos and videos whilst out on walks or what they’re up to whilst boarding. Amazing service!
There are not enough words to describe how amazing Lauren is. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs as she treats them like they are her own! We spent 2 weeks on holiday and received updates every day with pictures and videos showing us that our dogs really did have a home to home experience. Couldn’t thank her enough and will continue to always use her services and forever recommend her- our doggies love her!!
Lauren is absolutely wonderful, I honestly couldn't recommend her more. So patient and excellent with our pup Kiwi. Kiwi always comes back so sleepy after a sociable walk with lots of play, she currently has a weekly walk but I have used Lauren for over nights many many times too. Lauren is super considerate with your dogs needs and pairs dogs that will respond to each other well. Kiwi is super playful and Lauren always make sure she has the perfect playmate so she has the most positive experience possible. We also used Lauren for our wedding chaperone and she was brilliant. So prepared and we were so happy Kiwi was comfortable during the ceremony and happy before and during the celebrations. It took so much pressure off us and we could enjoy her being a part of our day without a worry in the world. Lauren was a pro at helping to get her to look at the camera the right way too, much help to Camera Hannah who took these photos! I'm so happy we used Lauren and we will always have these special memories with Kiwi thanks to Lauren.
Lauren looked after four of me & my families dogs for our wedding - anybody with dogs knows how stressful it can be to leave them in a new place with a new person, especially with a nervous dog like ours! We could not have asked for a better experience, the dogs were extremely well looked after, we were sent updates but not only this, Lauren was willing to bend over backwards to make sure everything worked out when we had some last minute changes. If you are looking for well organised, kind and professional dog sitting then make sure to give Dog Club Derby a shout!
The Dog Club were amazing- particularly Nat who looked after Winston on our wedding day/night. We went for the full package for our wedding. We had meets beforehand and spoke about what we wanted for our wedding. Everyone at the wedding was amazed that Nat had him controlled so well (Winston's still like a crazy puppy). Someone asked if Winston had a personality transplant 😂 We had a whatsapp group and we were sent updates on how he was getting on ! As you can tell from the photos he was so relaxed in Nats care! Thank you so much again! Xxx
The first time our nervous spaniel has been to a dog walker/overnight, and Lauren was great asked lots of questions to get to know Stella and we knew she was being very well looked after! Loved the pupdates of her out with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend and use again 😊 …
Best Dog Walker ❤️ so easy to deal with and Bruno loves his weekly walks and it helps us out so much. Happy and confident to leave Lauren in charge of Bruno.
Lauren is absolutely brilliant with my old boy who suffers with his back legs. She is always super conscious on how much or how little he can do as this changes on a day to day basis depending on how he's feeling. I feel like she's really taken the time to get to know him. 10/10
We Love Paws Derby - Dog Walker, Pet Sitter & Home Boarder
Recent Reviews:
At short notice Rebecca at We Love Paws and her family looked after our Cockapoo for 12 days at a very reasonable price and I felt she was treated as a part of their family which was very reassuring and kind. Rebecca sent updates on how our dog was getting on daily which was greatly appreciated as we were concerned about how she would settle in with other people and dogs. I would choose We Love Paws the next time we choose to go on holiday. Thank you again.
Amazing and friendly dog walking service. We used them for our dog who can be a bit nervous to start with, but Jess was so patient and kind with him. She was fantastic encouraging him into the car for a big adventure round Mickleover Meadows and he was absolutely on Cloud 9 when he got back! The consolation with Rebecca before the walk was really thorough and she took the time to understand our dog and what he'd need to get the most out of his walks. Would definitely recommend :)
Oli the beagle enjoyed his weekend with We Love Paws. He was made welcome and settled in quickly. We recived regular updates during his stay letting us know how he was doing. We will be using We Love Paws for our next visit to the area
This is the second time I have used We Love Paws for a holiday. A very extensive initial process of ensuring my dog was suitable to be boarded and what her needs are reassured me. We discussed how much communication I wanted whilst on holiday so I could feel at ease. From drop off I received pictures and videos of her settling in and I knew she’d be happy which she was. I could see how much she had bonded with her boarder. And as an added bonus, my boarder’s experience with dogs helped me solve some feeding issues I had with my dog since she was a puppy. So not only did I enjoy a worry free holiday, but because of We Love Paws my dog is now happier and healthier than ever. My dog is my life, and would absolutely recommend Rebecca and her boarders.
I have full confidence that my dog is in good hands. On a walk or an overnight stay - her needs come first and we are extremely happy with the care and attention Rebecca goes to to ensure Star is happy and settled and safe. What more could you ask ? Great service great price real care 👏 👌 👍 …
We have been really happy with the service offered by We Love Paws, from the initial consultation, the regular visits and the timely communications regarding visit updates, payments etc. Most importantly, our gentle boy Freddie (and previously his sister too) love Hannah and Hannah sends cute pics of her visit which is so thoughtful!
RM Pet Care
Recent Reviews:
Rachel has looked after our Cockerpoo Woody on several occasions over the past few years and quite honestly he loves going to stay with her. We get regular updates whilst we're away with photos and its clear he's having a great time with the other dogs. She's always very thorough and professional and ensures that the animals that she has in her care are harmonious together. Its great to have peace of mind to know that he's being looked after so well. We can't speak highly enough of Rachel and the care she provides.
Rachel and Mark are super!! Our dogs adore them and love to see them. We love getting the daily pictures and Mark certainly knows how to use a good filter. Can’t recommend them enough!!
Rachel looked after our two cats while we were on holiday for a week, visiting twice daily. She was very thorough, reliable & gave them plenty of fuss & playtime. We loved the daily photo updates and both cats were perfectly content when we arrived home! Would definitely recommend & use again 🙂 thanks Rachel! …
Absolutely flawless service. We had a holiday to Florida and needed someone to come and feed our old cat twice a day whilst we was away. Service was great, communication was fantastic, kept us updated with photos. Whilst we was away we got delayed coming home and had to stay an extra 2 nights because of a hurricane. Was not a problem extending the service to carry on feeding our cat. I can't recommend this company enough. If you need a service they offer, don't think about it, just contact them and book. 5 star service. Thank you 💙😻
Honestly, Rachel has changed my life. My Assistance dog wasn't getting walked as much as he should, so we found these. She focuses on my dogs needs during the walk making it dog focused and allowing him to decompress. She has respected my wishes in terms of not letting him play with other dogs other than ones he knows. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited in the morning to go, she's so amazing with him and I can't recommend them enough.
Rachel has fed our two cats Rocket & Dixie on a number of occasions and has always looked after them incredibly well. She gives us peace of mind whilst we're away, both in terms of the cats & also our property, ensuring it's left clean & tidy. She gives regular updates about the cats and provides pictures/video which is lovely to see. Nothing is ever too much to ask. I would highly recommend her services.
RM Pet Care are fantastic! Rachel & Mark care deeply about the animals in their care. My Rommie rescue is very nervous around new people & Rachel spent the time getting to know her. This is invaluable for our sensitive souls & my dog absolutely adores both her & Mark! Highly recommended.
Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful attitude towards myself and my wife. My dog came back in such an awful state we actually thought we would need to take him to the vets. Apparently another dog viciously attacked him and left him with a severed ear. The owner was damn right rude and aggressive. Would not recommended to anyone whom care she their pet.
Rachel has been doing pop ins and walks for our dog since she was a little pup, and is absolutely brilliant. She is extremely trustworthy, sends photos and updates and gives our dog so much love! It is really refreshing to see someone really love what they do. Even more so, the tail wags when we’ve seen Rachel on the street are probably more that what we’d get shows a lot!
Couldn't recommend Rachel enough! Our dog always has a waggy tail when he sees her and we feel so confident that he is being well looked after when out on his walks. He's also boarded with her, we get regular photo updates and her communication has always been great.
Poochie Play Centre
Recent Reviews:
We take our dog Rocky here several times a week, he absolutely loves it. The staff are very friendly and we know he is well taken care of. The flexibility is great, which suits us, overall it’s an excellent service and Rocky always comes out very happy 😊 …
My Hunter loves it, and he is full on for 5 hours (half day). He comes home has his dinner, then sleeps until he goes out last thing to the toilet.
Great place for my dog. In fact, this is the first dog daycare place where my dog loves to go.
I drive past this play center daily and each time the doors have been open I have seen one particular staff member with long hair playing and loving the dogs. Which is exactly what you would want for your fur baby. I thought I would leave an observation review as for someone to be doing this with no intention or knowing anyone’s watching.
We have been taking Otis to the Play Centre for a couple of months or more for one afternoon a week.. Highy recommended. Otis is only just over 10 moths old and has learend so much on his social behaviour around other dogs. This is important for puppies to learn. Staff are friendly and experienced. Cannot recommend enough. Many thanks to you all. Kim, Patrick and Little Otis.
Really recommend Poochie Play Centre! The staff are so lovely. I was initially hesitant about taking my puppy to any day care but now I'll be taking her regularly as she loves it! The staff are kind and it's honestly helping build my little one's confidence!
Hazel just loves being here and has been coming here to play since she was 4 months old. She's 9 months now and is such a sociable dog, she loves everyone. Best thing we did was to bring her here to play with all the other doggies 😊 …
I could not recommend this place strongly enough. The staff are extremely friendly and approachable but are also extremely knowledgeable. Poochie Play Centre is fantastic value for money and offers a flexible approach. Its nice being able to leave your dog knowing they are in good hands but also that they are not locked in a kennel, they are socialising with other dogs with the very best supervision! If you are a dog owner this place is a must!
This is a very well supervised and professional play centre for our beloved dogs. Abby and Carl are so helpful and all the staff know the dogs by name, which is testament to how much they care for every dog as if it were their own. Great facility, safe and professional environment. Thank you.
We took our 4 month old American akita for the 1st time today, the staff was lovely and made us feel welcome, they was happy to help and answer questions we had, our puppy woilfe has enjoyed his first day there and will be going back would recommend Poochie Play Centre to my friends and family.
