Cat Sitters in Duns

Iona is great! Short stays, dog walking, nothing is too much! Our 2 dogs love staying with her - a real home from home.

My dog loved staying with Iona. She was accommodating with times for pick up and drop off and very reasonably priced. My dog must have had a great day playing as he instantly fell asleep when he came home.

I started using Iona when she stared up as my little jack russell couldn’t be out at a yard I worked on so on a longer day to break her day up I got Iona to walk her. After a change in circumstances I wasn’t at the yard but asked if Maple would be able to go for home boarding when I’m away. Maple has enjoyed her first stay, went away happy and came back happy. 110% recommend Walks4Paws as I don’t have to worry or think when I’m away.

It's my 3rd time using Sandy paws and love how good they are with all the dogs. They are very friendly and welcoming. My dog loves staying. I also love that they put up videos of the dogs as it's a comfort to see your dog settled and running around happy 😊. Highly recommend. …

My dogs came home happy and content after their holiday. One of them found her first experience of kennels rather stressful, and was particularly well looked after. I am most impressed by the excellent service.

Roux and Baxter love their weekly daycare trips to Sandy paws on a Tuesday and It’s lovely to know that when we go on holiday our dogs are looked after so well when they are in for boarding. Wouldn’t send our dogs anywhere else. X

Hector loves his time at sandy paws and he is always so excited to see Irene and Jonny. It's so reassuring to have somewhere to leave him when we are away where he is looked after so well and where he is happy.

Once again Meg stayed at Sandy Paws, impeccable service as always, Meg is always well looked after, thank you Jonny & Irene

Our dogs just love going to Sandy paws and we are so happy they are relaxed and very well cared for during their stay.

Johnny and Dougie alway happy to go to sandy paws great service and competitive priced 🐶 …

Great service, pick up & drop back home again after a day running about a massive field with all his pals living their best dog life. Highly recommended.

Ruby and Annie love there doggy daycare days cannot praise and thank you enough Jonny and Irene you just love and care for doggies much appreciated

Daisy absolutely loves Irene & Johnny with being a rescue she just needs that extra bit of love & care which she always gets at Sandy Paws.

Naomi's service has been a godsend to us after my husband suffered a stroke earlier this year. It has been a great help to know our dogs are looked after and walked. The dogs love going to the doggy day care 3 times a week .

We used Naomi when we visited Scotland for a few days and had our dog with us. He was only there a few hours but we could tell he was happy and had been busy has he slept all the way back!

Bertie is really friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. My two dogs love their walks with her when I’m away and can’t do it myself.

Coldingham Pets cared for our dogs, whilst we enjoyed a trip to Edinburgh. From start to finish, it was an excellent experience. Bertie is organised, reliable, professional, prices reasonably and most importantly has a genuine affinity with animals. We were impressed with the questions she asked and her eagerness to provide a bespoke service. We highly recommend Coldingham Pets and will definitely be using the service again in the future.

Bertie takes care of my girl B when needed, I love the photo's that arrive when they're out on a walk, so reassuring as an owner and very thoughtful. Fantastic and reliable service, B really likes being with you, thank you Bertie xx

Mildred was well cared for while we were on holiday. Daily WhatsApp messages and photos. Will happily use Coldingham Pets on our next holiday.

Excellent kennels in a perfect countryside location. We've used Lesleys kennels for 13yrs as do our own family now too & always come home to happy well exercised dogs🐾 …

Our dogs love here, Lesley love and attention is 2nd to none as for the kennels the are absolutely spectacular and the freedom the dogs have is incredible.

First time we've used Lesley although some of our neighbours have been regulars in the past. Only a weekend away but our dog has come back unfazed by the experience - can't ask for more.

Lindsay lovely and dog very well looked after

Absolutely fantastic boarding kennels Lesley is very committed to providing 5 star care in a fantastic location

Have used these Kennels for years always a great service. The dog really seems to enjoy going there also.

The dogs are so well looked after and get lots of exercise

Excellent kennels

Thanks Adam

Thanks Keith

Our gang of 4 cats Jack, Tink, Bella and Barney stayed with Laurie at Maple House Cattery just recently. The service we received and the care and attention my cats were given was just amazing from the start. Laurie has been extremely helpful and professional, inviting me to visit the cattery before booking to see the facilities and has been very understanding of everyones needs, including my own - THANK YOU!. Tink is a very nervous traveller (had a wee accident on route) and Jack requires medication twice a day but neither was a problem to Laurie who helped me clean Tink up on arrival and was more than happy to administer Jacks medication as needed. Bella was very nervous and stressed for the first day but Laurie soon had her coming out to say hello. We received an inital update and daily pictures, which was fantastic to see how well they were all settling in....some maybe enjoying the lovely cosy beds Laurie provides a little to much 😁. The cattery is kept impeccably clean. The facilities are new and warm with the cats getting out daily in a secure area for play time. We will most definitely call on Laurie at Maple House Cattery again and would without question recommended to anyone else looking for cat boarding facilities. We truly felt our cats were cared for and engaged with throughout their stay - this is not just your regular cat boarding facility! So thankful of your understanding through a difficult time for us and the time you have taken to look after our gang. Massive thank you to Laurie and all at Maple House Cattery 😻

Our boys had their first stay ever in a cattery. We are so glad that we chose Maple House. The boys settled in straight away and we were spoilt with photos & updates each day. Nothing was too much trouble for Laurie & we were very impressed with the cleanliness & warmth of the place. Can’t recommend them highly enough a safe & cosy home away from home.

We have used Maple House regularly since getting our (first) kitten and really feel like we have found the best we could have hoped for. Brilliant communication, always accommodating and plenty pictures and updates of play time. Can not recommend highly enough.

Had our cat Hamish stay here recently from Monday-Friday. Hamish was incredibly well looked after and Laurie kept us up to date regarding his eating etc. We also got plenty photos which was fab as we could see he was happy! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Very friendly service and nothing is too much hassle communication was great. The cattery itself is spotless and very well equipped and a fab size.

This was the first time I’ve ever put my fur babies into a cattery and I was slightly apprehensive 😕 But Maple house cattery didn’t disappoint and done a marvellous job caring and interacting with Grogu and Floki I highly recommend them and will certainly use them in the future 🥰 …

Laurie and her team are amazing. I needed my cat looked after whilst I moved and they were very accommodating. I got regular updates and pictures of him whilst he was in their care. Highly recommend and will use again. Thank you for taking such good care of my wee Mr T 🐈💕

Our cat loved her stay at Maple House and we couldn't recommend them enough! Not only did our cat have a fantastic time, but we really appreciated the updates and photos we received during her stay. Will be using Maple House again!

Our cat had a super stay at Maple House. We got regular updates on how she was settling in and the drop off and pick ups were very friendly. I would highly recommend Maple House. It is new, clean and fresh and the area your cat has to live in is very well equipped. 🐾 …

Our half Siamese cat who likes company and is very inquisitive was very happy at this fantastic Cattery. He received love and attention and was kept warm and snug in high quality modern cubicles. Angus was let out to play in two areas with cat tunnels and toys. The service and efficiency was excellent. We received WhatsApp posts with photos. There was even calm music in background ! I highly recommend Maple House and Angus will become a regular customer.

Maple House Cattery looked after our Zinc when we were away for a period of 3 weeks, from start to finish they were very informative, and kept us up to date mostly every day with pictures or information on how our cat was, which helped us both with being away for so long, we were so thankful. For future occasions we will most definetely be using their service and would recommend this 100% to anybody else thinking about it and willing to use this facility. No faults or complaints, we are both very appreciative of the time being taken to look after Zinc, A big thank you to Maple House Cattery.

Wow, what a place. Our dog Fletch goes weekly and has the time of his life. Social and interaction with other dogs and the human are great too. Picked up from home in the Hilltop Bus, fantastic day and then returned home. 5 star service and 5 star care!!! He sits in the window ever week waiting on the bus and gets so excited when they arrive.

Hilltop are amazing, all the staff I've spoken with or met are extremely kind and helpful, my dog Boba loves going there, I actually believe he thinks he's their dog too. They take amazing pictures of all the dogs and treat them all like there a part of a giant family. I couldn't recommend a better service, team and group of people. Also you get to enjoy a hilarious update of what your dog has been getting up too.

I started Nala off at Hiltops puppy school from approx 16weeks old and haven’t looked back since. She always so excited to go and has grown into a well rounded, super sociable, loving dog. All the staff are amazing and very attentive to ours needs. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Our Golden Retriever Finn has been going to Hilltop once a week since he was a puppy and we couldn't be happier. The team there are incredible, they've taken the time to get to know Finn helping him grow into a well rounded and confident dog. We love that we can ask any staff member how his day went and get a detailed report, a fun story, or even helpful advice on what we can work on at home. We're beyond thrilled with Hilltop and we know Finn is too!

Our dog has been attending Hilltop since it started, and our experience of it is consistently excellent across the board. From pick-up and drop-off (even when we're not at home) to hearing how he's doing, getting in touch with the staff to ask for extra days, swaps, etc., and seeing photos at the end of the day, every aspect of our interactions with Hilltop is first class. Far more importantly than that, however: it's so clear to us how much our dog loves his time there! He utterly adores the staff that pick him up, spend the day with him, and drop him off again, and it's crystal clear that the staff really care about and know the dogs as individual characters. He's got some really good pals amongst the doggies too, and we've seen him grow in confidence and sociability. We feel that he's in such safe hands, and we absolutely trust Jon, Mhairi, Claire, Carly, and the rest of the team to make sure that he has a joyful, enriching (and tiring!) time. Thank you Hilltop, and I'd highly recommend!

Millie loves Monday when she is at Doggy day care with her friends. Claire and all the staff are so friendly and really care about Millie’s needs. Would 100% recommend Hilltop

Our dog loves his day at Hilltop playing with his friends. The doggy bus is invaluable, picking him up & dropping him off. He is well looked after and I trust the staff to do their best for Teddy. We love waiting for the photos of his antics too. Can't recommend enough.

Our Springer, Archie loved Hilltop Doggy Day Care, from his very first visit for his trial session. He always seems to know when it’s a Thursday, he sits looking over the back of the sofa out the window, waiting for Carly to come & collect him. Then he can’t get out the door quick enough to see her and get in the van. One of our main reasons for sending him, is his lack of recall, daycare gives the freedom to have a good run around & play with other dogs. Can’t recommend them highly enough, we know that Archie is well looked after & enjoying himself.

Amazing day care. Harris starts his morning being picked up in the doggy bus by Carly. Always so excited to see her and cant wait to leave with her! The photos taken throughout the day and posted on facebook give a great insight to the fun all the dogs are having. Harris returns home always content and tired. Well done Hilltops

Fabulous company - clearly care deeply for dogs. Our fur babies can’t wait to get into the van when collected! Great to have a photo slide deck of who they were playing with and what they got up to after their ‘school day’ . Hilltop are careful about the group mix to ensure that personalities/behaviours are a fit. Great to know that they are safe and having the opportunity to play with dogs of all sizes. When they come home, they are just exhausted and very laidback. Big high 5 from us !!

Absolutely amazing. My dog Archie stayed with Borders Boarding for 11 nights and he absolutely loved the place and the staff. The grounds are lovely and peaceful, with beautiful walks, which suits Archie as he can be very nervous with loud noises. Very professional and take on board your dogs' needs. Archie suffers from elbow dysplasia and Neil, and the staff catered to Archies needs regarding his condition. I received daily updates and pictures of Archie which made my holiday more enjoyable knowing Archie was enjoying his holiday and being cared for like home from home. I will always use Boarders Boarding in the future and would definitely recommend it. Thank you for making Archie's holiday and mine enjoyable. I'm looking forward to sending Archie to you again.

We were extremely anxious knowing we had to find a Day and Night Boarding facility for our French Bulldog Puppy and were under no circumstances wanting to put her into kennels. We stumbled across Borders Boarding whilst googling local business and after a half day introduction, booked Bella in for Tuesday Boardings to begin with and get her use to being somewhere other than our home for the day. Bella settled in very quickly and both Neil and James have treated her as if she was their own. Bella had her first overnight weekend stay a few weeks ago and we received regular updates on her progress. Bella is very relaxed, calm and happy every time we collect her, on dropping off she knows the minute we get onto the sweeping drive up to the house where she is going and does a dance in her car seat, super excited. The Boarding facility is a home environment set in a tranquil, peaceful countryside setting which is perfect for Bella, I would highly recommend Neil and James at Borders Boarding to anyone who wishes home comforts and only the best care for their pooch

My boys loved staying with Borders Boarding. They felt right at home from the minute they walked in a real home from home. They had fantastic walks just outside the front door and even a stream to have a dip and with a nice warm place to dry out and sleep what more could they want. Did they miss us, not one bit.

My black lab enjoyed his stay, got on really well with their dogs. Felt really relaxed with picture & video updates throughout the week. Would definitely choose borders boarding as my dogs go to holiday place & highly recommend to anyone looking for a non-kennel stay as the stay is just like home. Thanks again and will definitely book him I on our next holiday abroad.

So pleased we found Borders Boarding. I personally didn’t want to put Bertie into a kennels as he is such a home boy. Borders Boarding offered Bertie a safe, home environment with an abundance of land for him to run around in and us piece of mind knowing he was happy and being so well looked after. I can’t recommend Borders Boarding enough and Bertie can’t wait to stay again.

My 2.5 Yr old labrador adored the 2 resident GSP's. Running and playing all day and snoring his head off in the evenings. I loved the updates and pics and we will be using Borders Boarding again. A knowledgeable and safe haven. Thanks 👍 …

Neil is fantastic with our 3-year old Airedale Terrier, who always has such a great time at Borders Boarding exploring the beautiful contryside and running around the garden with the other dogs. He is very accomodating of our dog's particular needs, such as his daily routine and dietary requirements - he really makes it a home away from home for him! I couldn't recommend Borders Boarding enough!

My 9 year old toy poodle had a great day with Neil at Borders Boarding. She got on great with the resident dogs and really enjoyed all the lovely outdoor space they have to run around in.

Absolutely wonderful people, couldn't fault them. Very friendly and very welcoming would highly recommend them :) Thanks for looking after rocky and I will defo bring him back

A great place for dogs and wonderful hosts to look after your pets!

We discovered this little gem of a place. Leaving my little 6 month old furbaby for the 1st time I was extremely worried she may fret or not eat but from day 1 Elaine put me at ease & kept me updated with messages and made my little Minnie part of the family showing her lots of love, attention & care. Elaine is such a lovely lady & it’s clear to see she loves her animals infact Minnie was reluctant to leave & tried to go back into her kennel. She’s came out happy & healthy & a little chubbier due to her gravy bone treats. I highly recommend & will be booking again for our next holiday. Thank you so much Elaine I felt like I left her with a family member.

Such a lovely lady, who clearly loves dogs. We had to attend a funeral in Galashiels at short notice and she kindly agreed to look after our dog while we were there. It’s not often you find such generous hearted people. She is a gem and I would highly recommend Arthurshiel Kennrls.

Had a great time with the kittens and looking at the cats. The staff were very helpful when asking any questions

Elaine is without doubt the best place to leave our dogs. They absolutely love to see her and dropping them off I know they are in safe hands, so no longer spend our holidays worrying about them as they've been coming for 5 years now. Darcey and Dakota always remember Elaine and maybe even sulk on coming home as she is so lovely!

Perfect place to leave my GSD, they know the breed and my boy is very well looked after. Totally recommend Arthurshiel if you want a professional kennel to look after your best friend.

Lovely staff and all the animals are really well looked after and loved. Came away with a lovely cat called Cheeky, she's beautiful x

Have used this place for several years now. Adequately priced. The dog seems to be well looked after. Will use again.

Elaine is a gem! My dogs were well looked after, so much so they were happy to go back! 😊 …

My dog is enjoying another stay there while I'm on holiday, always well looked after.

Having lost our 18year old cat and unsure whether to replace her with another moggie, we are being allowed to visit for cat cuddles anytime till a new fur baby comes into our lives!
