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.

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 !

Dog & Cat lover. Over 30x 5 star sits. Your pets loved, cuddled, walked like you
It was a last-minute arrangement which we really appreciated. Dogs were looked after well. We would be happy to recommend him to others to use.

Kind, independent and travel addicted animal lover
Ebony is an amazing sitter. Her communication before arrival was excellent. From the time she arrived the cats seemed very comfortable with her. She kept me updated throughout the sit, even following up when I had a problem getting messages. My flight home was delayed and she very kindly stayed late to give the cats dinner. I arrived home to a spotless house, with even fresh sheets on the bed and all the laundry done, and most importantly super happy cats! I cannot recommend her highly enough. Anyone would be lucky to have her looking after their precious pets and home. I do hope she can sit for me again one day!

Exploring…
Katie was a great sitter. We booked a last minute trip and were very lucky to have Katie look after our dogs and our home. We came back to a tidy and clean home and our dogs were well looked after too.
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
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.
Amanda is truly our trusted sitter "find"! She comes back regularly, so much so that our kitties think she is their secondary owner! Always reliable, clean, responsible and most of all loves our cats as much as we do! Good communicator, self reliant - all in all a perfect "10"!
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
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!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
Cat and Paul sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details. Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters! Regards! Edward
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?

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!
Jane has been walking our dog Rocky for a few years now and has always been very flexible and adaptable to our varied needs. She has assisted us with finding temporary cover whilst she is away and has also helped us find boarding care when she was unavailable at very short notice. Rocky loves going out with Jane and the rest of the Paws and Whiskers gang. He recently boarded with her whilst we were abroad on holiday and the care given was fantastic. It really did help us to relax and have a great time knowing that Rocky was well looked after. We would highly recommend Paws and Whiskers Pet Care to anyone needing her services. Many thanks from Andy and Heather
I can't recommend Jane highly enough! She provided excellent dog walking and home boarding services. My dog always came back happy and tired after walks, and the home boarding experience was fantastic. I received regular updates and felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. If you're looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker and boarder, Jane is the one! Thank you for everything! 🐾❤️
Paws and Whiskers have done a fantastic job looking after our 2 cats and guinea pigs whilst we've been away! Really good service and felt our pets were in safe hands. Got regular updates. Would definitely recommend.
Jane has looked after our 13 year old springer spaniel a few times he is still extremely lively but he copes well with the fabulous walks Jane takes him on. We get fantastic photos of him whilst we are away and updates. He couldn’t be in better hands, we have no concerns as he is so content staying with Jane.
Arnie loves going for his walks with Jane. Jane has helped out numerous times at very short notice if something has come up and we need arnie walking. The best dog walker in the high peak. 100% recommend
Jane has been looking after Angus for a while now, he always looks forward to seeing her whether it’s for walks or pet visits, she is always making a fuss of him when she sees him, I have a very varied and busy schedule that changes regularly and Jane has always been accommodating for this and is always happy to help if she can. I really appreciate all that Jane does for Angus and I’m sure he is too. Thank you for all your help.
There is nobody else we would trust Daisy with when we go away other than with Jane, we get updates via messages and can see where she's been each day on the Facebook page surrounded by other dogs which she loves. Daisy flies through Jane's front door and truly makes herself right at home because she's so comfortable and happy there! Knowing your dog is happy and so well looked after is priceless and I would highly recommend to anybody.
Jane is so lovely. Her love for animals is apparent in everything she does and she always goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is well cared for. Luna loves her walks with Jane and it is so reassuring to know that she is in good hands. I love to see the amazing photos she takes on her walks and it’s so nice to see Luna having fun with her friends. Would 100% recommend!
Our four cats had the pleasure of being cared for by Jane whilst we were away for the weekend. We were able to relax knowing that Jane was visiting them and we received updates so we knew our fur babies were in good hands. Would definitely recommend.
I have used Jane for the last 4 years to walk Archie, she was recommended by another user and I am so glad she did! Archie gets excited every time I mention her name let alone when she turns up to walk him. We also use Jane for boarding as I know he is being so well looked after & I can go away with no worries whatsoever! She should also be a photographer as the pictures she takes of the pups in action are amazing! I really do not know what we would do without her! 😘
Our dog absolutely loves staying at Lara and Liam's. We used them for a week holiday, as well as a day care. Each time the dog comes home happy and well looked after. Massive perk- they take the best pictures ♥️
Love taking our dogs to Lara and Liam, they are treated like family and always have plenty to do. They take them on beautiful walks all around Sheffield and always always go above and beyond to accommodate our dogs' needs and give them a great time. I'm so grateful I can go to work or uni and relax knowing they're happy, active and loved when I'm not there❤️ 🐾
Really good doggy day care and boarding. Lara and her partner took very good care of my rescue dog many times including overnight. He is a bit nervous with new dogs but Lara had him playing off leash with the others within minutes every time. She is very experienced, confident and cares about dogs. She was also very friendly and accommodating to me which I really appreciated. My dog liked her, enjoyed staying with her and would be pooped when he came home because he played so much. She is also open at the weekends which is very convenient.
My dog loves Lara! He gets so excited every time were on our way to drop him off it's incredible, especially as he's super attached to me and has separation anxiety. He's become more confident and playful with others dogs since coming here too. Lara is a very warm and caring person and it shows in everything she does. I love the photo updates too!
Lexi absolutely loves visiting Lara, it's good to know she is being well looked after
Lara is so good with dogs! We have left our greyhound with Lara on several occasions and trust her completely. Lara sends us cute updates of how our dog is getting on and our greyhound always looks so happy on walkies! Highly recommended Life on Paws ☺️🐾 …
Lara took care of our family dog Lilly during our half term visit to the Peak District and she was amazing! It was last minute and she was very responsive, saving our holiday when the weather forced us to indoor activities for a few days and where couldn't bring the dog. She took great care of Lilly, making sure she had loads of exercise and even came home clean (it was very muddy given the weather!). Thank you so much Lara, we'll certainly be in touch again whenever we come back to the area!
Our Red and White Setter absolutely loves going to Lara, I think she’s disappointed to come home when I pick her up! We get updates and photos and I feel 100% confident in Laras’ ability to cope with all her funny rescue-dog quirks. Often we text Lara at the last minute and she’s able to accommodate us, I couldn’t recommend Life on Paws more highly!
Lara was fantastic at looking after our puppy Harvey while we welcomed our baby to the world. We were sent regular updates from walks and what he had been up to throughout the day with plenty of pictures which was lovely. Even asking for a couple extra nights stay was no problem and accommodated easily as well as extra precautions being made in case baby arrived in the middle of the night. All in all excellent service and Harvey will be sure to visit again.
We left Ralph (our 4 month old pul) with Lara for 11 nights which we were initially anxious about as it’s hard to leave your pup with anyone you don’t personally know. Lara straight away put our mind at ease. Every day we had updates and photos, he clearly had a great time and I’d recommend Life On Paws to anyone. Thank you.
Jo has looked after our rabbits many times. She is fantastic with them. Your fur babies will be in safe hands while you’re away.
Jo always provides a friendly service that has at times gone beyond our expectations. She does a super job looking after our cats. One of which is old and needs a little extra care. We highly recommend Critter Creche.
Jo looked after our two bunnies and we couldn't recommend her enough. They had a lovely space with indoor and outdoor runs, and clearly had a great time as it was difficult to get them back in their carrier to come home! Thank you again Jo for looking after Gatsby and Daisy!
Excellent customer service. Will always go out of her way to support her customers. Always calm environment and extremely friendly welcoming place .
We send our guinea pigs to Jo every time we are away from home, usually several times a year. Jo offers an excellent and affordable service and I always enjoy a chat with her on drop off and pick up. She is friendly and easy to communicate with. I have complete trust in her care while we are away and would recommend her service to anyone looking for boarding for their small animals. Thanks, Jo!
Fabulous, looked after my tortoise Flash so well. I felt comfortable leaving him there. They even sent a settling in photo!
I was very pleased to see the arrangements Jo had made for my rabbit's recent stay. The pen was spacious with a number of activities to keep my bunny occupied. And there was an outdoor area in the daytime too. I was also impressed by the updates provided by Jo. I was nervous about leaving my rabbit with a new person but a combination of Jo's friendly professionalism and seeing the accommodation put me fully at ease. I'll look forward to the next occasion.
Booked our 2 bunnies in the superior accommodation over Easter this year, and what a lovely time they had! The views are amazing there, and they had lots of space indoor, and out, for them to run around. Very affordable luxury, and they were so well looked after, even had their toe nails clipped! Can't recommend enough. They will be returning again this year for another holiday. Thanks Jo :-)x
Our bunnies love going on holiday to Critter Creche! Extremely well run, and well looked after. Jo is an absolute professional, and has earned our complete trust. We wouldn't know what to do without you Jo! Thank you!
Looked after our two gerbils for a couple of weeks. Very happy with their care. Jo was really nice and my seven year old son is smitten. Will definitely use again.
Feel so confident and comfortable leaving my boy with Amy and her team. I’ve had regular photos of Marty and he literally looks like he’s living his best life while we’re on holiday! Thank you so much!
We've been taking our Beagle Blue here for 2 years now and I think I might be their biggest fans. He first went as a really little pup, and we use it for anything between a day here and there to 2 weeks at a time. The staff are amazing, always accommodating and know Blue by name even after months of not visiting. Blue always returns clean, happy, in great health and I will not stop recommending this business to anyone with a pet in Sheffield.
Odie absolutely LOVED his time at Centre Barks! He's never been amazing with other dogs as he's super excitable and doesn't really understand how to not just chill but he made friends with 2 other dogs and they all tired each other out. The staff gave me updates through Facebook with the occasional picture/video. Centre Barks is definitely the best kennel for my boy 🥰
Amazing kennels with caring owners and staff 😊 My dog has the best time playing with other dogs here and is well looked after. Love the colourful kennels too! …
Belle absolutely loves staying here. I was concerned as she was a rescue dog, I wondered how she would cope. The love care and attention they gave her were brill. Instructions were left, and these were adhered to. She loves it here, and was so tired when she got home that it must be from all the dog parties they were having 🤣 Keep up the good work. See you next year
My two guinea Pigs are always well taken care off in Centre Barks when we go away. It's a very professional and well kept facility
Very accommodating place and nice activities/play area for dogs, my dog can be wary of other dogs and be overly playful at times and the staff were so accommodating of this by doing smaller sessions with 1 other dog rather than overwhelming him in a full play session with multiple dogs so he is also building in confidence and comes home happy. Would recommend and will definitely be using again!
Our dog has been to stay here twice, on the second occasion it was for over a week as we were on holiday. She always comes back healthy and happy! Whenever I message to see how she is I get updates. They cater for her delicate tum with grain free food. She had a bath and smelled absolutely fantastic when we picked her up! My only grumble is the drop off/pick up times and pricing! As you can drop off at 9-11am or 2-4pm, so if you are wanting to drop your dog in the afternoon and pick up the next day in the afternoon, you have to pay for 2 days boarding… I personally think this should be 1 day.
We cannot rate Moscar highly enough. We left our cat Sammy for five weeks and we could not be happier with the care and communication. Most importantly, we were able to ‘see’ our cat daily as Julie (member of staff) posted photos and videos of him on their face group page! The place is clean and the animals well looked after! we definitely recommend (and will keep using) this cattery.
So impressed with this place!! Julie is absolutely wonderful! Our cat can be a little shy and skittish and the photos that Julie posted of her showed her so relaxed - and even playing. When I came to collect, she didn't even have to ask who I was and it was our first ever visit. She gave me a full run down of all the details of our cat's stay including eating habits, how she had behaved etc. Will only ever use Centre Barks from now on!!
Excellent transport and assistance provided by Michael for my first ever dog! He drove from Sheffield to Canterbury, stopping off at two service stations so my dog could exercise and make some mess! The car used was very smart and comfortable.
I have had the most amazing trip to pick my puppy stray up from Zante and drive all the way back to Yorkshire. My driver/courier, Norman was fantastic. The whole process went smoothly, safely and was a trip of a lifetime. They organised every last detail to ensure the dog and myself were comfortable and well looked after. Highly recommend this fantastic company. Expensive but SO well worth it. Thank you.
I travelled with my dog from Sweden to Wales. They were very professional and organised and even remembered our names when we would call. No issues with booking etc. Were given plenty of information and contacted by the driver days before which was reassuring. He arrived in a branded van and clothes which reassured me (I am a young woman) and was very professional throughout. The van was clean and well equipped for transporting my dog and we took regular breaks around every 4 hours. Well worth the money and would definitely use c four paws again. Thanks/Diolch!
We had Milo collect from London on Sunday with two cages and a carry cage and lots of toys. Milo was perfectly happy and items were in good order. Collected on time and delivered on time. Excellent service and driver was very nice. Highly recommended for animal transport. Will definitely use again if the need arises. Good job thank you
Calagran Four Paws and my driver Will were absolutely amazing at handling our cross country transport for a long distance move. Having a rather large Staffy x Old Tyme, who had sadly had to be exempted due to her size, I was even terrified to take her on the road in anything other than proper transport. And with it being such a long way I wanted a safe long distance option also for all round safety and comfort. Our needs were catered for with the upmost care and Will was absolutely amazing with my nervousness and with my lovely girls nervy nature. I couldn't have been happier and I plan to travel with them again. I can highly recommend them.
I highly recommend this company. I just endured an incredibly stressful and long importation process into Europe and finally into the UK with my 3 med/large breed dogs. CFourPaws went above and beyond to help me logistically with things they really didn't have to and was outside of their services. Provided much needed emotional support and were empathetic to my unforeseen financial costs. Really without people like Keith and Greig, I may have crumbled under the stress of it all. BIg animal lovers, BIG hearts and can't fault them. Thanks CFourPaws x
I have been bringing my dogs here for a few years now. They are always happy to come back and I love that the kennels share photos with you of your pets. The drop-off was very useful
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. In a medical emergency you were the first kennels we found after literally 100's of phone calls with spare capacity to take Casper while his mum had an emergency operation to remove a brain tumour. The 10x photo's you sent us showing him happy & thoroughly enjoying a run in the secure field were a huge relief to his dad & a massive boost to his mum's immediate recovery.
We recently used C Four Paws to transport our dog Adi from Glasgow to Heathrow for her trip home to Canada. David was a very kind and professional driver and got us to the Kennel at Heathrow on time in spite of some unavoidable traffic delays along the way. We’re back home with Adeline safe and sound and are very grateful for having used the services of your company and David for the first leg of our trip.
An absolute lifesaver when it came to transporting me and my cats from Dublin to Somerset. There was fantastic communication the entire time during the booking process and our driver Clive was incredible! They made what was a very stressful move for me and my cats, a very easy time and I cannot thank Clive and the whole team enough.
Claire did a great job of looking after our cats and providing us with daily updates, photos and videos. She was very attentive to their needs and even our nervous cat felt comfortable with her. We found Claire to be well organised, polite and reliable.
We would absolutely recommend Claire to anyone looking for a cat sitter. Our cat can be very shy and nervous around new people but Claire managed to win her over immediately! We loved seeing the photos after each visit and the updates meant that we could really relax knowing that our cat was in such safe hands. We already have more visits booked in and I’m sure Poppy is looking forward to it!
Great experience using Peak Pet Services - Claire took the time to understand our cat’s individual needs before we went away which really helped us feel at ease. Daily updates and photos were provided and the questions/messages exchanged demonstrated that Claire was truly invested in our cat’s welfare whilst we were away. We came back to a calm and happy cat (which is not always the case after we’ve been a way) - a clear sign that Claire had done a fantastic job. We will be booking again the next time we are away!
It's brilliant to be able to go away knowing our animals are in such safe hands. Claire looks after our cats, chickens and ducks as if they're her own. She provides updates every day, meaning we can relax and enjoy our holidays without any worries. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Peak Pet Services - a five star service from a real animal lover.
Amazing care for two very nervous cats, Claire has consistently looked after the cars while we have been away over a number of years, ensuring regular updates and pictures so we can be sure all is well. Can't recommend her highly enough.
Would highly recommend Claire. Professional, friendly and caring🥰 Kitties were very happy, safe and well cared for by Claire. We received updates of how they were🥰 Thank You Claire x …
A purrrfect service. Our cat wants to be adopted by this wonderful lady. Certainly not a fly-in-and-fly- out service! Our cat was given quality time. An excellent service.
I’m very pleased with Peak Pet Services. I was kept informed the whole visit about how my cat was, photos included, and I was so surprised that my cat actually ventured out of her safe space while Claire was there! I’ll definitely be using them again.
Amazing service. We have had a few pet sitters over the years but none have compared to Peak Pet Services. Claire always goes the extra mile. We felt completely at ease on hour holidays knowing our cats, rabbits, chickens and chameleon were being cared for so well. We got sent updates everyday and no pet sitter has ever spent the time getting to know our cats so well which was just so lovely to see them bond. If I could give more stars I would !
Excellent pet sitting! Claire from Peak Pet Services is an absolute gem, we’re so happy we found her. When we’re away we know that our cat is well looked after, happy and fed. Claire is really intuitive with our boy, and will follow his lead when she visits - sometimes he wants to play, sometimes he just wants a cuddle. She sends regular updates and takes (great!) photos of him on the days she visits, which is reassuring, and she is extremely flexible and happy to suit our timings and needs. We wouldn’t know what to do without her!
