Retired nurse and civil servant love pet sitting in UK and Europe
Clare and Matt were absolutely brilliant sitters, as all their other glowing reviews suggested. Their communication was just right, not too much or too little. They arrived on time, and asked lots of good questions about the sit in preparation for our departure. And they were an instant hit with our dog Jasper. We had complete confidence in them as we left, and they sent us occasional updates of Jasper throughout our two week holiday. Nothing was a problem and they thoughtfully checked our flight was not delayed before leaving the house in perfect condition (immaculately clean) for our return home. Clare and Matt are both really lovely people who I cannot recommend more highly. Jasper was clearly very well looked after, as was our home.

Conscientious and caring family with a love of all animals
Jennie & Alan house/ pet sitted with their daughter over the August bankholiday, which should have been a gorgeous summer weekend but storm Lillian had other plans. Jennie & Alan weren't phased by the weather which blew the bins over & lots of branches on the forest tracks but none of this stopped them enjoying days out & activities nearby. The house was lovely & clean on my return home with bed linen,towels all washed & drying- a few things out of place but Jennie was quick to messege me when I couldn't find things. The birds & cat seemed happy on my return & seemed well cared for in my absense- I appreciated some good photo's & updates on progress whilst away. I was pleased the house plants & greenhouse had been watered as guests often forget that duty. It's a pity we hadn't had an in- person contact handover at the start of the sit due to arrival timings but I sent video & written instructions to help them find everything & they where quick to ask if they needed local or other information. I'd happily have them to return sit & so glad their daughter enjoyed the pets & garden :)

5* ‘Super-Sitters’ avail to offer TLC for your home & pets
It was excellent to welcome Annette and Joe to our house. Fantastic communication throughout their stay, we really appreciated you sharing videos on WhatsApp of Rafa and Skye having a brilliant time on beach walks. Our house was absolutely immaculate when we returned and our dogs had very obviously been taken care of exceptionally well, we think they were disappointed to see you go! Thanks so much to you both, best of luck on your travels & we will keep in touch.

This is me last year.
We struck gold again! What a gem - thank you, Sarah for looking after Dasher and our home so wonderfully. Sarah’s communication before and during her stay was excellent. She is a calm and gentle lady - she understood and met Dasher’s needs and he was very chilled when we got home. The house was immaculate on our return. We are very happy and highly recommend Sarah to others.

Harriet and David were lovely. They looked after Harvey brilliantly and kept me updated with their days out. Harriet is so organised and was so helpful as this was my first time doing this. Would definitely welcome them back anytime .

Marianne has kindly sat for us & iggy a number of times which says it all. She’s super flexible & easy going. Iggy has a better brushed coat when we come back than when we went away! Would definitely recommend Marianne.

World traveller, pet lover: where 2 worlds can collide
I'd really recommend Helen, she was organised, friendly and caring. She left the house really tidy and even washed the sheets and made us some soup! She was kind enough to go and pick up a missed delivery from the local post office for us, which was so helpful.

Looking forward to fun, friends and fur babies.
Julie was absolutely wonderful. Such a gift to have her look after our little Havanese dog, Rocky who bonded with Julie immediately. Couldn't recommend Julie more highly.

Trustworthy, active retired couple looking forward to sitting your house and pet
Linda and Stephen took care of our house and dog from May 24, 2024 through June 9, 2024. They took great care of our dog, Zoe. They kept the house clean and even some of the outside area after a Moroccan sandstorm. Our only complaint was that they ignored our request to keep things where they found them. We told them when they arrived that we had sitters that moved things so much that we were still looking for things three weeks later. So they then went on to move glasses into different cupboards, rearranged pots and pans, and took out of the refrigerator, a water bottle with cut lemons in it that is used to take to chorus. After 18 days, the water was spoiled and had to be discarded.

Active couple with a love of animals and traveling to new places.
This is the second time John and Gren have looked after Berti & Milo and I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them.
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
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.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
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.
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
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!
We had our dogs in Bartle Bridge for 9 days for the first time (1 year old ESS and 7 year old JRT). The receptionist team was extremely helpful before their visit with information as we were anxious with this being their first time in kennels. When checking in, it was incredibly smooth and eased our worries immediately! Our dogs are fussy with eating when we are away and we made BB aware of this so we knew this would potentially be an issue with them both. We were given updates about this while away very promptly and again our anxieties were eased. They seemed to try everything with our dogs to encourage eating (giving them different types of food both wet and meat, hand feeding them etc). They were open and transparent with us which we loved. On pick up, this was again very easy and effortless. The staff truly care about the dogs. They came home smelling lovely, their items still in immaculate condition and were very happy with their handlers!! Would 100% recommend them as they take great care of your dogs and care for them no matter how difficult they are !!
Would not recommend, poor communication with kennels. Took over a week for a response to see how my dog Maple was doing. I had to ask someone to call them on my behalf to see how Maple was doing. It was only then they responded. Met with a defensive attitude when I collected Maple. I was told to send messages through messenger to be met with a long automated price list each time. The kennels are only contactable for short hours during the day too.
This is the only place I would take my dog Bentley.He's been visiting these kennels for a few years now,and I would highly reccommend this business.The staff are caring,professional,and are the best people to look after your pet.Bentley loves coming to stay at Bartle Bridge.So much so,when we picked him up this time,he didn't want to come home.Its great value for money,however long your pet stays here.Bentley is looked after so well,I wouldn't think about taking him anywhere else.Thankyou to everybody at Bartle Bridge.Bentley will be back soon for another visit(I think he's grown attached to you all).
1st time the dogs have been in kennels, we were impressed with bartle bridge & very friendly & experienced staff... They also bath dogs at owners request..
Terrible experience - I would not recommend this place to anyone. We boarded our dog here for 14 days. Never used kennels before but was assured that Plan B and C would be deployed if the dog didn't settle and the most unacceptable part of it all was that my dog was clearly distressed during the whole of his stay and nothing was done - even though an emergency contact was provided of someone who would collect him. No concerns were shared by the kennels, no communication and worse still, no action taken. The end result was the dog lost weight, lost his bark (assume that was due to the amount of crying/howling/barking he did whilst distressed), returned with red lumps on his front legs (bites?) and smelled so badly of urine that he was bathed the day before we collected him. Later advised (after being told initially that there were no issues) that he relieved himself in his unit each night and 'padded' around in it which is not usual behaviour for any dog - and then he was left in this state for 2 weeks? They did say they hosed the unit down daily. Surely this was another red flag? Following further investigation, they acknowledged that the dog 'had not received the 5 star service that he should have' and that they had lessons to learn from it. I don't believe that the experience my dog had and the service received bears any resemblance to the nice fluffy description advertised on their website. I would almost call it neglect. I was told to follow the kennels on Facebook for regular updates but only 1 photo ever uploaded. Will not return nor recommend. The only compensation offered was a free return visit...which given the above NO ONE in their right mind would accept. How could anyone put their dog through that again?! Insulting to say the least. It has taken me nearly 2 weeks to write this review as I didn't want it to be an emotional response to the situation but feel I should now share.
Have been using bartle Bridge fir over 20 years. They take wonderful care of my boys and are so good with their medical needs. Would not take my dogs any where else
My partner takes both he's baby here when we go on holiday, what a great place for your cuddle family pets. Dogs love it, peace of mind leaving them both..
Visited the kennels in connection with work. Found everyone really friendly and the facilities outstanding. My boys " Spaniels " would be happy to holiday there I'm sure.
Moved into the area last year and came across Bartle Bridge for my four dogs, I have used them several times now and they are just the best at looking after my gang. The team are always accommodating and fuss and love our dogs for us whilst we are away. Two of my dogs are bulldogs with high energy levels and some mischief but the team are always embracing them and tell me how much they love their characters, this is lovely to hear and I know how much fun my dogs must have with the team. Cath and the team are just the best !
Truly exceptional kennels ran by devoted animal lovers who will go the extra mile to care for your pets and give you the assurance that you need when you're going to be apart from them. Well worth investing the time to pay a visit and get to know them and then you'll understand they are more than just boarders. My dogs have truly loved going there and I will heartily recommend them to anyone who wants or needs any reassurance.
I took my border terrier here for for a well needed groom today & Star Paws did an Amazing job on him! I will definitely bring my dogs here for a groom every time & I would highly recommend this company. Lovely owners & facilities too. Happy Dog owner & customer 😊 …
Star Paws is the only sitting service I would trust to look after my dog. They treat him like part of the family and go beyond for him on every visit
Star paws played a tremendous role in our wedding day. Not only did they do an amazing job looking after our and my parent’s dog. Helen was fabulous at chaperoning Josie who was our ring bearer. Our day went perfectly!!!
Molly had a wonderful time while we were away.
We visit weekly and find the staff really welcoming. They are patient and kind with the dogs, and the dogs are happy to be there. Would not hesitate to recommend 💗 …
It not my views that counts. george is a pug and he loves doggy daycare its his day off to be a dog.I tell when hes going and he is super eager to go.He excited about who calling for him.And if they happen to forget were there going he drags them there. He loves every minute.So I'm happy he's happy
Fantastic team and Bentley is in safe hands
Staff really friendly and Noodles very happy with the other dogs ready for her stay over in April
My furbaby had a fabulous 2wks here. Fantastic place and will defo be using again in the future 👍 …
Wrong review previously. Star Paws excellent pet sitting. Thank you.
Christine is amazing. She worked wonders on my little Hammi whilst I had to go away for two nights. Very reassuring.
Very caring
Our dog had stayed here previously with no problems but this time when dropping him off he was fine, but because he started to bark (as all the dogs were barking) they refused to take him. My dog is a big dog and does have a loud bark but is not viscous. This left me without a kennel prior to leaving for our holiday in 4 hours time. The owners had no time or compassion for my dog and were very rude. And left me trying to find somewhere to home my dog for a week PLEASE BE AWARE!!! I had actually recommended them to a friend but they refused to board my friends dog due to their breed. My advice would be STAY AWAY or you could be left in the lurch.
We sent our 4 dogs to waterwheel for 15 nights, we had never left our dogs before but when we went to view this kennels we knew it was the best place for them, the owners were so lovely, caring and professional, the kennels were so clean and tidy. On the day we dropped them off we were so upset to leave them however the support we received from the owners was second to none, the instantly showed love and affection to all the dogs. I emailed regular and was provided with updates, all 4 dogs settled really well! On collection day the dogs didn’t want to leave the clearly enjoyed their time at waterwheel making it so much easier for us to leave them next time we go on holiday. I couldn’t recommend this place enough they really are gold standard and I can’t thank them enough for caring for our dogs so well!
Thanks a lot to the hosts for the top service for our pug and cat!! We left them at the Waterwheel boarding kennels a few times before and both our pets and we were very happy after their stay. The place is very tidy especially compared to other kennels&catteries we had visited in search of a place for our pets. Highly recommended home for your pets!
We leave our dogs Lulu and Ian here regularly and they are always well looked after, its their little holiday .
Shocking service. Phoned the kennels to book my dog in for a few nights. The man on the phone was just about to confirm the booking and everything was OK - until he learnt that my dog was a British bulldog! He said they don't take any bulldogs. I politely asked why, and he said that he's "been bitten by one in the past" and that they "don't want anything to do with them!". He then hung up the phone. My dog is very gentle and loving and has never bit anyone. Absolutely disgusting service and snobbish judgimental attitude. I would not trust any pet with a person with such cruel opinions about any dog. We will reschedule our holiday for when our usual trusted kennels have availability.
Absolutely brilliant kennels! My dogs love going and get very excited as soon as they arrive! I also board my cats, they are all looked after amazingly and the staff are absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend!
Booked a 4 day stay a month in advance. Turned up on the day with our two collies, literally on our way to our holiday. They had no record of our booking and we were told they were full. When I produced my record, they agreed to take our two dogs. Upon return we were told both dogs had just been fed and toileted, however were absolutely desperate for the loo (both are very well trained so being desperate is stressful for them) and one continued to make a mess in the car on the way home which is unheard of for my dog. Both dogs were smelly, had urine in their coats and very hungry and the youngest (who is very lean and fit) was visibly thinner. Fast forward a few days and both are now showing kennel cough, despite being vaccinated. So some dogs are obviously going in unvaccinated. Have used many kennels over the years and will never use this one again.
Our border collie stayed here for his holidays and was his happy self throughout his stay. We always choose the Waterwheel for its friendly owners, clean kennels and time taken to give him his daily exercise, hugs and strokes. Many thanks for giving us peace of mind when we were away.
We have now had 2 dogs that were looked after whilst we were away at Waterwheel Boarding and we cannot praise them enough. Our current dog is a Lhasa apso and she loves it here she goes there with tail wagging and comes back to us exactly the same. The dogs get regular walks and exercise and the kennels are very clean and warm so the dogs are very comfortable here. We wouldn't take our Millie anywhere else. Very highly recommended.
It was the first time that our two black labs had been in kennels. We were very anxious owners but we should not have worried as they were well looked by Lorraine and Ron. We received photos and messages while we were out of the country. Would definitely use them again and would recommend them without any hesitation.
My dogs was there 8 days and not seen any sign of stress. My two staffies are very okay, happy as always. Video and picture while my holiday was sending. Happy from service. Recomended 😊 …
Amazing kennels, was going through an awful time this kennel helped me in more ways than one, I’m honestly so thank ful for these guys thank you so much xx
My dog was here was 9 nights for the first time and she has come home with damaged paws, cuts all over her feet and legs. My poor dog can hardly walk and they didn’t seem to care when I rang she has ran and played at home many a times and never ended up like that.
Great experience. My dog was looked after really well and came home happy. Would definitely recommend
It makes it so much easier as an owner to know you’re leaving your dog somewhere they’re happy. Before Old Park Farm, I’d only ever left Lola at one other kennels and never for 2 weeks. I was so anxious coming back as I was worried at how she would be at home, but it was like we were never away! She came home just as happy as when we dropped her off and that makes all the difference. I won’t use any other kennels in future. Thank you Old Park Farm 🐾❤️
We left lottie for 2 weeks she was very happy and content when we picked her up The staff are lovely and friendly Will be using again in future
They're absolutely amazing! Left our 8 month old German Shepherd with them and he loved it. He's a handful and they were fantastic with him, even when he was throwing his water around! Amazing care given and they really do care about all the dogs that are left with them. Would definitely use them again and recommend! Thank you!
First time for our 8 month old GSD .He loved it and came home in perfect condition .Will be delighted to send there againsoon
They took the time to keep me updated about our two dogs. Would recommend and use again . Exercised our dogs well and they were happy while there, lovely surroundings and immaculate clean kennels . 👍 …
Pip our boarder collie has had a lovely week at the old park farm kennels. She has come back full of life. Such lovely staff . Will not hesitate to have her stay again . The best moment was when as we left she turned back to the lady who has been looking after her and gave her her one final cuddle and if you know pip you know she only saves them for special people. Thank you again .
Charlie is just back from 13 days at the kennels. It is only the 2nd time Charlie has been here and he is not a very social dog yet we have had pic after pic of Charlie sat with the staff and having cuddles he’s come home a very happy little boy. Can thoroughly recommend Allegro Kennels they really care about the animals .
I have a 3+ year old German Shepherd and since she was born I had never left her since she was born during covid. For the first time I was going away on a family holiday for 2 weeks and from the beginning the guys made me feel super comfortable about leaving her with them. They set up a time to meet her before hand and gave me all the relevant information I needed to make me feel comfortable because I was super nervous! But during her stay I was sent photos, videos and super nice messages and updates on a regular and un-prompted basis of her enjoying her time and receiving daily attention, love and exercise. Even upon picking her up they made sure that everything was ready for pick up and I didn't have to worry about anything at all. My girl was super happy and I wouldn't hesitate to choose them again for my next holiday! Thank you so much for the amazing care for my Nova <3
I recently used Allegro dog kennel for my reactive dog, and I couldn't be more impressed with their care and attention. Despite my dog’s temperament, the staff was incredibly understanding and made sure to keep me updated frequently, sending photos and messages to ease my worries. They reassured me that handling my dog wasn't difficult, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It's clear they truly care about the dogs in their care, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again. Highly recommended!
All I can say is what an amazing set of people! My dogs (2x labs) stayed whilst I went away (it was the first time I was able to book, because they are busy all the time!!). I got picture updates every few days and vids. They've been so well looked after and are so happy! Might take them a while to decompress as I think they built some solid bonds! I couldn't be more grateful and happy that their wellbeing was priority. Highly recommend for any fur babies, cats included! Thanks a million ❣️
My Lurcher puppy had her first short stay in September, she loved the staff. It’s great that I can drop her off and pick her up between 9.30am and 4pm any day of the week. I was sent photos of her enjoying her exercise and arranged a pick-up time via text. I recently booked another short stay but my pup got an infection and there was no problem in cancelling. Martin was understanding and was able to rebook her in for another stay in a couple of weeks.
Left my Belgian malinois with these guys for the week and picked her up today. Couldn’t fault the lads at all great service. From looking after my girl to constantly sending photos and videos to me while I was away! Could tell she was well looked after and came back home her usual happy little self. Can’t thank the lads enough. Will definitely be where she goes when we’re away in future!! Thanks again 😁😁😁
Both my lurchers stay at Allegro quite often for short stays. They are always well looked after, happy and usually shattered when they come home so I know they have plenty of exercise. They are happy going in everytime and so excited to see the staff (they can never get a picture as they are too busy trying to get kisses). Very reasonably priced and I wouldn’t take them anywhere else. Staff are polite and communication is great. Happy dogs and happy owners each time
My male Akita had his first kennel stay with Allegro this weekend. He’s never stayed at a kennel before and has never stayed over night with anyone other than family, however with family holidays coming up we knew we needed to find a trusted kennel that could handle our big lad and we’d feel safe leaving him with. Martin was absolutely fantastic from the moment he met Kuma, & even with the breed and Kuma’s minor aggressive tendencies (food aggression, resource guarding, anxiety with strangers petting him) he took him on & made sure he felt comfortable at all times. Kuma warmed up to Martin in seconds and with regular updates on his well being and to give me peace of mind, I knew I’d made the right choice! As an Akita owner, I know first hand how hard it is to find somewhere who not only aren’t scared of the breed but are experienced enough to look after them properly, I’m so glad I found Allegro and won’t hesitate to use them as our go to now. Highly recommend, no matter the breed, size or personality of the pup, I’d feel safe leaving my furbaby with the Allegro team!
Wonderful place! My 3 dogs stayed for a week and I don’t think they wanted to come home! Amazing staff who kept us updated and sent beautiful photos across to us! Extremely friendly and I felt very comfortable leaving my 3 in their care! See you again soon!
Fully recommend for any pets. Our dog loved his stay and has come back full of joy. Price is very good and the service is 5*. You receive pictures every couple of days to ease your mind. Will use them again when needed.
Our two lunatic puppers have just spent a week at yappy nights while we were away on holiday. Really nervous at putting them in kennels but i am so glad i found yappy nights. Fergie and badger obviously enjoyed their time there and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Yappy nights to anyone. I got photos of them whilst we were away which was much appreciated. So impressed i am already booking them in again for February.
Had our 2 Labradors boys (Teddy and Finan) in Yappy Nights while we were away on holiday for the week, staff seemed fantastic, really helpful, must have a real love for dogs which shows, dogs seemed to love it come out happy healthy and bouncy. Have used them a couple of times before and will definitely be using them again.
My Louis favourite holiday home 💙, He is always happy to ge dropped off, and the ladies are lovely & caring xx …
Really nice place friendly staff and my dogs love it always happy to go.
Our 2 dogs have just completed a 10 day stay here, the staff we met were lovely and very interested in our dogs and there likes and dislikes very accomodating to both dogs!! Both dogs came home very happy, healthy and tired (from having so much fun) thank you so much they will be back!!!!
This Kennels has recently changed hands for the worst! When you drop your dog off and the first thing that is said is "we don't supply the food now you know" . I'm paying you £15 you should supply. luckily I had food in the car. But my dog came out of these kennels skinny hungry and not very well looked after it's a shame used to be a lovely kennels
Our dog loves it here. The staff are very friendly. You get the sense they very much care about the dogs in their care. We wouldn't take our dog anywhere else.
Wouldn't go anywhere else...our dogs are happy and comfortable staying here, staff are brilliant with them. Always perfectly looked after :)
Cooper was well looked after. Lovely friendly caring staff
The girls running it are absolutely amazing. Always happy to see the dogs and nothing is too much trouble.
Ollie and Coco always enjoy spending time at Julia's. I always feel as ease knowing they are happy there and Julia sends daily photos on what they're getting up to 🙂 She has a huge garden for the dogs to play in and her own dogs (Bonnie and Cocoa) are so lovely and friendly too! Julia provides a homely environment my spoilt doggies are used to and makes my time away from them stress free, without worrying about them!! She's not only great with the dogs, but extremely professional as well, ensuring all dogs are fully vaccinated, and always responding promptly to any messages. Thank you! ❤️
Me and my boyfriend have a beautiful bouncy Labrador puppy called Bella. We were recommended waggletail back in March when Bella was just 4 months old. We were very apprehensive about leaving our gorgeous puppy as we had never done it before but what can I say! Julia made it Bella's second home! Bella has since been on several stays at Waggletail and she loves going on her little holidays there! We sometimes joke that she won't want to come home as she has so much fun there! Julia sends regular updates on Bella when she is there including photos and videos which is very reassuring to see Bella having the time of her life! Julia also plays stimulation games with her which keeps her brain active too which is amazing! We wouldn't let Bella stay with anyone else extremely reliable and great service! Would highly recommend. Jen
Monty has settled in well at waggletail and bonnie is his new best friend. Julia really looks after him and keeps them occupied. Comes home tired so we know he's had a good time. Highly recommended
Couldn't be better.
Took my four years old labrador today. She loved it and they made her feel at ease. We'll definitely be there again
These guys were fantastic wth my boy he is normally weary of strangers but they took there time with him and he loved his swim.wash and dry
I send my babies on regular basis, very happy Dan taking a brilliant care of all.of them. My puppy Esma was very shy at first and comes out of her shell after sent her couple of times. The place is not big however I feel my babies feels more at home compared to other place that they had attended previously.
Lola was nervous at first but Dan was great and she loved it i will definitely be booking in again.
Have used then several times , when Tracy turns up to collect him he can't wait to go with her 😄 we get regular updates from the host which allows us to enjoy our holidays, would recommend …
Another successful holiday for Millie, I've lost count the number of times that Tracy has arranged Millie's holidays. We are so grateful we can go away and know she is being looked after so well and we don't have to worry about her. Barking Mad is such a well oiled operation and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to arrange your dogs home from home holiday.
Another fab holiday for Ruby with Barking Mad! We’ve arranged doggy holidays with Tracy for 7 years now & would not consider any other option for our dog Ruby. She loves to go & we have peace of mind that she’s having fun with regular updates & photos 🤩🐶 …
Another great service. Otto loves going and is always well looked after. He is treated like part of the family. The photos and updates on how he is getting on is fantastic and he always seems to be having a lovely time. We will certainly be using again.
We would highly recommend Barking Mad, Tracy provides an excellent service, nothing is too much trouble. Bobbi leaves home happy and arrives back home happy, the host families are lovely and caring and you are always kept updated on his welfare. Would not know what we would do without Tracy at Barking Mad and the host families.
I have always found this service amazing. It is such a unique level of care that surpasses everything you expect. Tracy has been amazing right from the start. Her careful assessment of Charlie who was very old and had multiple needs resulted in a very individual service that made Charlie feeling that he was not away from home. On every single 'holiday' he returned home happy, clean, well fed and completely relaxed - there was no evidence of separation anxiety before or after his 'holidays'. In contrast when he was in the kennels - he was thin, smelly, and anxious and when he barked he sounded as though he had a sore throat. On every occasion he was anxious for days and it took almost a week to settle down. Tracy has a wonderful team and their kindness to Charlie was always evident when he came home. Many, many thanks to all the kind and generous people Charlie and I met throughout the last months of his life. Maria Gibson
Another top class service from Barking Mad. One of her hosts had taken ill while minding my dog, so without any fuss Tracy quickly collected my dog and secured the services of another host to care for it, allowing my holiday to continue uninterrupted. A first class service from Tracy at Barking Mad.
This is our first time with Barking Mad, and we found Tracy extremely professional, friendly and helpful. Tracy matched our dog with Carl and we felt very reassured and relaxed during our time away. We shall definitely use Barking Mad again and are happy to recommend their services. Posted by: Carole & Craig on 22nd Jul, 2014
Wonderful service and a caring company. My Minty has had several hols with the same hosts and is always well looked after. If ever there is a delay because another animal is getting extra care you are kept well informed, and it is door to door. 10/10. I would have posted earlier, but this is a new mobile phone and the other one had no sites like this.🐶🐶🐶
Hi Sandra. Thank you so much for your 5* rating!
