Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan & Nataki
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly & Thomas
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian & Susan
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
Anne
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Jenner
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
KOLBY
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Oliver
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.
Jessica
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Elizabeth
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
MARILYN
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!
Carrie
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!
Natalie
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!

Sally and Martin have looked after all our dogs for over 20 years. The service they offer is second to none. A real home from home, all our dogs pull to go in. They care and treat the dogs just like their own... you couldn't wish for better care. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
Sally n Martin have looked after our dog for a good few years now. He actually pulls like a train to go there. What better recommendation do we need.
We can't put our dog into normal boarding kennels he hates being locked up. Martin and Sally look after every dog like their own and Oakley, my dog, loves it there .
Excellent company. I wouldn't trust anyone else with our dog. They treat her like their own and she is always happy to go.

I would recommend Woody woods to everyone! I love that they use an enclosed field for the dogs which is deffo a highlight of my Tess's day. Sandra is 1 in a million when it comes to dog grooming.. my girl is very hyper and unconfident.. Sandra really takes her time and does not rush. Which i could not ask anymore from her. I can just tell from her rushing in at morning drop off that she loves it does not look back for me straight off for a fun day. Thank you as always for being great!! My Tess has come on leaps since starting there they have taught her so much🥰
We had to book our pug in unexpectedly last minute for a few days of boarding, and Sandra was amazingly understanding. All forms and paper work were sorted with ease, and the little man really enjoyed his stay! He even came back smelling fresh and was lovely and soft! Even when she was ill, Sandra kept me up to date with how the little man was, which, as a worrier was so relieving. I cannot express how amazing she was. Genuinely an angel. I would HIGHLY recommend her, and I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you again so much Sandra for all of your help!
I have used Woody Woods on a couple of occasions. Unfortunately my last experience wasn't good as we had our dog boarding booking cancelled just before we were due to go on holiday. So for that reason I won't be using them again. PS: in response to the barage of abuse below. My doggies are very well cared for, thank you very much. And to imply they aren't is just slanderous. I have one Gmail account and I've used it to leave this 'honest' review. PPS: Yes I have another doggy boarder who is absolutely fantastic with my pooches. Good day!!!
Highly recommend Sandra and her pet care services. Sandra looked after our dog for the day when we had a day out in the area. Our dog was well looked after and was very comfortable with Sandra. Lovely photo and update sent during the day. Thank you so much x
Wouldn’t recommend Sandra at all. Had been using her for a long time without issue, even though I had my apprehensions about her considering what a friend of mine had told me about her (she made them come back from their holiday as her own dog had died and she was too distraught to look after theirs anymore). Then had my dogs stay with her a few months back and Sandra was just awful. Messaging complaining about their behaviour constantly. Refusing to answer how they were. Put us on edge the whole time we were on holiday. Then proceeded to cancel all future bookings that we had with her. Honestly, don’t be fooled by her reviews/qualifications/FB posts. I know of at least 3 other people who have had real bad experiences with Sandra. And just further to your reply to this review (that by the way is a copy and paste from another bad review of your business)…….go to the police for what Sandra? Because I left one honest review about you and your business? Pull the other one! And my 2 dogs are very well cared for, as you well know Sandra, so quit the mud slinging to try and save face. Furthermore, I’ve had absolutely zero issues getting another sitter thank you. As stated to you previously, a number of veterinary clinics are now aware of your practices. I guess all that’s left for me to just reiterate is……..STAY CLEAR OF THIS BUSINESS PEOPLE. SANDRA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR DOGS!
Sandra was absolutely wonderful with our toy poodle. We felt very comfortable leaving her there, knowing she would be cared for and have plenty of walks and play. Sandra is clearly very experienced with dogs and was great with communication, we really appreciated all the updates and photos on WhatsApp and I would have no hesitation at all recommending her to anyone and will definitely be using her again. Loved the bonus of our pooch coming back looking very pretty, having had a groom!
My wife and I were delighted with how Sandra and her husband looked after our Sprocker Spaniel Betsy last week. We had to complete a detailed registration form prior to Betsy's one-night stay and ensure that her vaccination record was up-to-date. On arrival Sandra showed us her licence and was very welcoming and warm; it was clear that Betsy was completely at ease. All the doggy guests were taken to Gilbert's Field for a run and play, and it was very thoughtful to be sent some photos of them having fun! Betsy will be staying at Woody Woods when our son gets married on February, and we thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, caring temporary home for their dog.
My self and Kiernan would not let our dachshund go anywhere else. Sandra and her family go above and beyond to give him the very best care. She has helped us at short notice, given us valuable advice and is an expert in her field. He is VERY happy with them and has made lots of lovely friends! We love to see the pictures of his adventures! I would have no hesitation in recommending Woody Woods Pet Services 😊
Sandra grooms my spaniel Ethel. She never rushes her but goes at Ethel's pace giving her lots of love and encouragement. She always looks and smells adorable when I pick her up. Sandra is a lovely friendly person who listens to what you want. Highly recommended.
Sandra was absolutely amazing when she looked after my 5 animals. At the time one of them was under veterinary supervision and Sandra was back and forth from the vets. She was absolutely incredible and i highly recommend her. Nothing is too much trouble ❤️ thank you again, love from Talulah, Rafiki, Patch, April & Chase 🐰🐰🐱🐱🐦 …

Used the pet cemetery for my cat simba,a sad occasion but very well organised burial , no rushing,thankful we found a pet cemetery not far from Leicester.
Just picked up our two girls (Irish wolfhounds) after a weeks stay. They are very happy and very well cared for. Not easy to keep these two shaggy dogs looking so fine. Thank you to the Team at Buena Vista. We will definitely be back again.
I simply wouldn’t put my dog anywhere else. I have a highly anxious retired military Belgian shepherd. I looked at many places and Buena Vista is the only one with the staff and kennel that I can have my dog at. I have every trust in the staff dealing with my dog they listen and follow the instructions (lots of them) my dog has started now to pull into the kennels when we arrive. If you want a play with experienced staff that treat your dog as their own then these guys are the ones.
We have two Irish wolfhounds who have been to Buena vista kennels three times over the last 12 months. On every occasion the dogs come have come home happy and we have been delighted with how the dogs have looked after. Will not hesitate to board them at Buena Vista in the future.
I was very worried leaving my dog for the 1st time in 6 years and the people are lovely and made me Feel much better. My dog has come back in a really good mood and looked after. Will definitely be using again.
Ive no reason to be negative with how our dog was treated as he seemed fine. However the cost was a joke. More specifically we dropped our dog off in the evening and was charged for the full day/night. ok fair enough. We then picked him up in the morning and were charged a full day/night again, ridiculous. I have also never read such an aggressive T&C. Not nice. I am in the Travel business and we go away a lot. But this is one kennels I shall not return to
Appalling!! Picked my two dogs up and they clearly hadn't been fed!!! You can see their ribs and spine!! They have sores on their mouths and unnoticed they didn't have any water, both when I took the second dog in whilst the first had already been there a week and also when collecting them. They both still have a sore throat. I've never been so angry in all my life that I trusted these people with my animals and this is how they get treated?! The poor things are terrified and still not themselves 3 days on. The price is ridiculous for what it is, the cattery stinks and is very dirty, my grandma also left her cat with them for two weeks and she could feel his spine a lot more than usual. She didn't say anything, just went into the office and that was that. I have started to take this further so no other dogs are treated like this!
Terrible picked my two dogs up this morning they were both soaking wet in a wet kennel they don't appear to have been fed properly either. I would NEVER take any animal of mine back to this disgrace of a kennel ever again. When I asked for an explanation as to why they were wet I was told " oh they have been rolling around in the grass" well that's funny as it's been the driest July for ages and the grass wasn't wet!!!! Do not take your animals to thus disgrace of a kennel
I have four cats, which have been attending Buena Vista over the past couple of years when we go away. I have always found them accommodating, friendly and very helpful. The daily costs are very competitive and I would recommend them with confidence.
We will never take our dog here again, since picking him up and bringing him home he's not his self. He smells terrible and has got to have a bath plus we were never told how he has been or what food they have been feeding him. The cost was terrible, we were quoted for 12 days but had to pay extra for 13 and was not told about this.
