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

Looking to explore the UK and it's furry inhabitants.
Christian is an exceptional pet sitter and I highly recommend him. Before meeting my two cats, he took the time to ask thoughtful questions and make notes about their personalities, which immediately reassured me that they were in good hands. His care and attention to detail were evident throughout, as he regularly sent me updates and photos while I was away. Not only did he look after my cats with genuine affection, but he also kept my flat spotless. Coming home to such a clean and welcoming space was a delight. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christian to anyone and hope to have him as a sitter again in the future.

Your pets are our passion! Professional, pet friendly couple traveling abroad.
Sarah and Chris were just lovely, our boys took to them immediately. They sent us pics and updates on the boys during their stay, so we were confident they were all in safe hands. We would heartily recommend them and would be very happy to have them back any time. Thank you

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

Eva was fantastic with the cats! She immediately bonded with them and took amazing care of them. She kept us updated with pictures every day so we could have a very relaxing holidays knowing the cats were well looked after. We came home to a spotless house too. Many thanks Eva

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

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

Trustworthy & caring couple with lots of love for animals ❤️
This was the second time within two months that Paula came to look after my house rabbits Max and Cyndi. Cyndi had just had surgery in connection with her ongoing bladder problems and needed medication during the recovery process. "Nurse Paula" again did a great job and on top of that took my bunny to the vet halfway through the sit for a quick follow-up appointment. She also informed me immediately when my boy Max seemed a bit off and gave him some emergency meds for his occasional "upset stomach" right away. He thankfully seemed normal and hungry when I walked through the door a few hours later! I am grateful having had Paula on my site during this time since she was a great help and did everything without further ado. She always leaves the house spotless and is the most pleasant house guest you could wish for. I very much hope to welcome her again in the future!

CLIVE & GILL 2 NON SMOKERS AVAILABLE FOR HOUSESITTING. PETS VERY WELCOME!
We met with Gill and Clive prior to our trip and were very happy. They were very friendly and engaging and our dogs instantly bonded and played. Gill and Clive arrived on the day of our trip as planned and provided updates every couple of days during our trip, putting our minds at rest. Upon our return, our house was very clean and tidy and Gill had very kindly provided us with some basic essentials (bread, milk & eggs). Our dogs were happy and it was clear they had been very well cared for. We could not recommend Gill and Clive any higher to other zeewoi members.
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
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.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
This was the second time Cung sat for us and once again he was amazing! Cung was great with our cat, giving him lots of love and attention. Our cat was so comfortable he snuggled up with Cung frequently, which he doesn’t always do with strangers. We got daily updates and pictures. When we returned we could tell our cat was well taken care of. Cung was so organized and clean, as well. Our apartment was spotless when we returned. That’s always nice after coming home from vacation. You should definitely have Cung sit for you! One of the top sitters on this site.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
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!
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
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!
Charlie did a phenomenal job with our two pet rabbits! I was going on vacation for two weeks and I did extensive research to find the best pet hotel for my babies. Charlie went above and beyond with them. She made sure there was always lots of play time and provided beautiful photos when I asked for updates. She also helped clip their names and groom them! It was also super reassuring knowing my bunnies had access to A/C during the London summer heat! Have already rebooked for some future vacations but I can’t think of anyone better to have look after my bunnies ❤️
I often leave my rabbit, Robin, with Charlie when I go away as I know he will be in safe hands! He's been coming to A Furry World, for a few years now and seems to enjoy himself on his little adventures. I love that Charlie sends picture updates of what he's up to, and provides that extra bit of reassurance as an experienced animal carer. I always know that Robin is being well looked after, and he gets the added benefit of playing in the garden sometimes, which must be a real treat as don't have access to one at home! Highly recommend :)
Charlie was absolutely brilliant. She looked after our Hamster Nibbles while we were on holiday and we had complete peace of mind that he was being very well cared for. She sent regular pictures to us and always responded quickly to any communication. Would 100% recommend her to look after your pets!
My Guinea pigs love it there! Since finding Charlie I would not leave my piggies anywhere else, they are extremely well looked after and always come home happy and relaxed. Charlie would send pictures and updates to let me know how the piggies were getting on which helped me relax and enjoy my time away. Highly recommend by me and piggies :)
Charlie looks after both of my bunnies when we go away, she takes excellent care of them. I actually think they don’t want to come home! Communication is great and we receive photos and videos of the bunnies whilst away which is lovely. Gives me peace of mind to leave them in safe hands.
Charlie at A Furry World is an absolute godsend! I have now used her pet sitting services for my bunny babies three times in the last year - most recently for 11 days whilst travelling. Charlie is professional, caring and a genuine pet lover. She keeps you updated with how your pet is doing through emails and photos and puts the wellbeing of your pet at the forefront - confidently escalating any health concerns where necessary. My bunnies love her and I would happily use her services again in the future.
Charlie looked after my two rabbits over the Christmas holidays and did a fantastic job (complete with update photos, one attached!) Very happy and will definitely use the service at A Furry World again, thank you
Charlie is amazing!!! Felt so calm and reassured the entire time our guinea pigs were with her. She really goes the extra mile to ensure they have the best stay possible. She even gave them a nail clip for us! Thank you Charlie!
Furry World provided our bunny a caring and loving environment for the duration of it's stay with them. The proprietor is friendly, communicative and clearly cares a lot about the little creatures. We received regular updates on the rabbit's exploits including photos, which gave further assurance the bunny was having a cracking holiday away us:) Highly recommended !
I used A Furry World for my rabbit for a 2 week stay for the first time recently. Charlie was very helpful and full of knowledge. From the first time I spoke to her I knew that leaving my pet eith her would be a very safe bet. I received regular updates on how he was throughout my holiday and Charlie was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. After picking my bun back up it was so obvious he had been treated with so much love. He was very relaxed, calm and happy and I knew he had had a great little trip away. I would absolutely use a Furry World again and would recommend it to anyone, especially anyone who is usually reluctant to leave their pet. I feel very confident that he was treated like Charlie's own and received as much love and care as I would give him myself. So grateful for their service!!
I highly recommend House My Pet to any professional looking to expand their pet service business. The platform not only offers a reliable way to reach clients but also fosters a community of pet owners who value quality care.
I have used dozens of dog sitting companies over the years and I've never come across a company quite like House My Pet. What makes House My Pet unique, is that they take the time to find the perfect person to look after your pet, so not only your pet feels at ease but you do too! My dogs have absolutely loved their experience with the sitters chosen so far and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anybody.
I have felt so uncomfortable about leaving my spaniel with just anyone that I’ve avoided going abroad for 3 years! This is a brilliant service and put me totally at ease! Highly recommend!
House My Pet was refreshingly easy to use and navigate with rapid responses - would definitely recommend and use again!
Wonderful service! Gives me a peace of mind finding credible and competent pet sitters!
Simply great, highly reccomend using this site to find a reputable pet sitter.
Tom, our trainer, was excellent. He was extremely generous with his time from the outset to really understand our dog’s personality and behaviours. It took a few days for our dog to settle being away from home in a new environment, and during this time Tom gave us multiple updates, and adapted his training plans to allow our dog to settle. We could tell Tom is a seasoned professional from his approach, and after a few days our dog was happy and content in Tom’s care. He has come back more settled, calm and obedient (which is what we were training for). We had professional trainers help us in the past from pup stages but this time it feels like very strong foundations have been set in Tom’s care, and Tom gave us great guidance on how to continue building from this. Thanks Tom and the team!
Our pup has been going to Fetch and Retrieve for a number of years now and we’ve had a great experience. Ivy LOVES her days at daycare and couldn’t be happier when the van pulls up. Always tired and relaxed when she gets home. The video updates we get each day are great, and the staff are super friendly. We would 100% recommend to dog owners.
The story of wonderful Yoko and an even better dog trainer, Tom. Yoko, after the rehabilitation programme, has been so obedient outside and inside both. The training did not change her personality, but it did give her the boundaries she so needed, with me and with others. Tom was brilliant throughout the whole way; he had documented almost every little move, and gave me a long message both in the morning and int he afternoon, outlining the day. Overall, the best decision I made for her, for myself and others. She was never aggressive, but she needed proper training, like any size dog does. Thank you Tom and Fetch & Retrieve! P.s. I don’t know how, but now Yoko doesn’t even mind baths that much!!
We sent Motley as puppy to doggy day care and he loved it from the first day. They paid attention to all his needs, making sure he was paired with the right dogs as he can be excitable. He can be a spooked dog and he has loved every single staff member. The Fetch and Retrieve staff are all lovely and very friendly and accommodating. He has grown so much in confidence since going and we were sad to leave as we moved away from their service.
I had spoken with a few dog training companies but Fetch and Retrieve outshined them all. The service and care received from start to finish was excellent. During my initial call with Jack, he took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve from training, and was very knowledgeable about German Shepherds. The attention received during this call showed that Fetch and Retrieve genuinely care about what they do and do not treat it like a standard business, when compared against other companies I spoke to. Dogs who do a residential board and train, stay in their trainers home, rather than being in a kennel. This to me is so key in developing a great bond between trainer and dog, which lead to amazing results being achieved. Jake was my dogs trainer for the 3 week board and train. He took such great care of my dog, and achieved amazing results in just 3 weeks. He provided me with daily photo/ video updates, explaining what they worked on each day and tips for me to implement once the 3 week stay was over. Jake is passionate, and so knowledgable about dog training, which showed in the end result that was achieved. Aside from the amazing results achieved, what really stood out for me was how well Jake looked after my dog. My dog loved being with him, and the strong bond they developed was great to see. Fetch and Retrieve are lucky to have such a talented dog trainer in Jake. I’d recommend Jake to anyone who wants their dog to achieve such good results. Thanks for everything, Jake.
I sent my 5 months old puppy Robin to train with Tom for 2 weeks whilst I was away on a business trip. This was the best decision I've ever made. Robin came back as Robin 2.0, the upgraded version. ;) Tom did a fantastic job on all the basic commands and even crate trained him. I received daily updates with videos to see how the training was going and for me to reference later when I continued the training at home. Tom did an amazing job keeping me informed and explained everything very well during pickup, as well as at the drop off. On return I also received training to ensure I was able to continue develop myself and Robin. Since then I have managed to crate train Robin at home and can now leave the house, knowing that Robin is safe and happy at home in his crate. A massive THANK YOU to Tom and Fetch and Retrieve for the amazing service!
It was our first boarding experience. Jack was very helpful and speedy in onboarding us. Kim took excellent care of our little one over the weekend, who is usually anxious around other dogs. It was really nice that she responded to Kim very well and had a lot of fun playing with other dogs in those three days.
Puppy Board & Train: Tom We recently used Fetch & Retrieve for a one week board and train service for our 4.5-month-old Sproodle, Bunker, and couldn't be happier with the experience. Our trainer, Tom, was absolutely incredible—professional, passionate, and clearly dedicated to his work. From the moment we met him, we felt reassured that Bunker was in safe hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger can be nerve-wracking, (unsure if it's harder to easier when they're so young!) but Tom put our minds at ease with a thorough handover at both the start and end of Bunker's stay. Throughout the program, he provided daily updates, sending us photos and messages each morning and evening. It was comforting to see how much Bunker enjoyed his time, the connection that Tom & him forged and it was fab to see him socialising with other dogs. Tom worked on Bunker's recall, crate training, and desensitisation in busy environments, there was a particular focus on being quiet & relaxed in public settings when we're eating and drinking. We're so happy with the results & the skills we've been given to work on this further. It's clear that Bunker adored Tom and thrived under his care. We would highly recommend Tom at F&R to anyone looking for a dedicated and skilled trainer. We are so grateful for the care and expertise he brought to Bunker's training.
Excellent board and train experience with trainer Tom and the F&R team. Longer review / description below. My puppy was becoming increasingly anxious and fearful - terrified of leaving the apartment and barking/growling at new objects, sounds and people. I’d trained my previous dogs myself but soon realised professional help was needed ASAP. Thankfully, Jack/F&R was prompt in responding and reassuring as he listened to the distressing situation and recommended a tailored board and train with Tom. Objective of the board and train was to build her general confidence in the environment and desensitise/counter-condition her around triggers such as strangers, vehicles and common everyday environments. Tom was very attentive to the fact this was a fearful puppy and that it was important to go at her pace / gain her trust and coax her out of her shell before any training commenced proper (this was comforting as of course the last thing anyone wants is for their away from home four-legged family member to feel or become worse!). Unsurprisingly, it took 2 days before she would fully engage and I appreciated Tom’s timely and frank updates about progress each morning and evening. Once engaging with Tom, it was such a joy to see the steady improvement made each day. My puppy clearly enjoyed her time with Tom and he knew to mix pushing her in challenging / busy environments with relaxing days doing more indoor training. My puppy is now less reactive toward people (even curious or greets them in her own time), more keen to leave the apartment for a walk and less fearful of the environment. Ongoing work around triggers, confidence building and handling is still needed on my end but Tom provided a comprehensive handover and demonstration on the exercises to work on. Would highly recommend getting in touch with the F&R team if you are considering help with any training issues with your dog!
Our Puppy has just returned from a puppy board & train. We were hesitant to part with our precious baby but we had absolutely no need to worry. She was in great hands and her trainer Jake was a total legend! We received regular updates whilst we were away on holiday and our puppy came home behaving like a little angel! We are so pleased we chose fetch & retrieve. It was as worth every penny! 🤩
