Fun loving, energetic, adventurous & caring couple that love all animals
Phillipa and David were wonderful, loving and caring with our 6 fur babies. They all looked happy and healthy on our return. Communication was brilliant, we felt we could message any time for an update and we were kept well informed. When we got home Phillipa had a delicious vegan stew ready for us, which we were very grateful for 🙏 Our home was kept clean and tidy and David even did some gardening, keeping our garden looking beautiful. Thank you both so much, hopefully you will be seeing you again next time.

Mother & Daughter duo, animal lovers, writers
Val and Ornella were great, they kept us updated on the cats and left the house very clean and tidy. The cats were indifferent to us getting back which is always a great sign that they've had loads of attention! We'd invite Val and Ornella to sit again without hesitation

Animal loving, energetic, retired professional couple keen to travel and explore
Karen and Dan were lovely Petsitters. They really love animals and bonded very well with our little Cockapoo, Frankie. They looked after our home and Frankie perfectly. Frankie looked washed and groomed prior to our return. We would not hesitate to welcome them back again and would fully recommend them to you. Thanks Karen and Dan! Steve, Jenny and Frankie September 2024

Animal loving, experienced housesitter who is calm, practical and reliable
Mary looked after Shiva and Kali for a week and was everything we hoped for; plus, the cats loved her! She was helpful before she came, communicative while we were away and left the house (and cats) spotless for our return. Our two Burmese are demanding customers and report that they would love to see Mary again. Just purrfect; thank you Mary.

Friendly and trustworthy gal ready to care for pets and homes!
Sophie was bloody brilliant from start to finish. Great communication. Sophie provided regular updates about our pup and was very self sufficient. Left our place in the exact same condition that we left it and we can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again Sophie

Semi-retired professional Great with animals Trustworthy Respectful Non-smoker
Bridget (Bee) sat for us for three weeks this summer. This was the second time she had looked after Maggie and our house, and we have asked her back again this Christmas, which I think says it all! Bee is warm, friendly, kind and considerate. Her first priority is always to make Maggie happy and feel loved, and we have come home to a very content dog, who I think is missing Bee a lot! Bee sent us photos or videos on a daily basis while we were away, telling us what she'd been up to with Maggie. She looked after our garden beautifully - we came back to a perfect lawn and a well-watered, happy garden. It was wonderful to know that she was enjoying the house and garden while we were away, and she left everything spotless. We couldn't recommend Bee enough and fingers crossed she can sit for us again! x

Fit, retired couple with varied pet sitting experience
Sandra & Rick are fantastic pet sitters! They looked after Archie our ginger Tom for a week and he had the best of times. Their communication before, during and after the stay is exceptional leaving us relaxed to enjoy our hols. The house was spotless on our return and we (and Archie) will definitely invite them back. Couldn’t be happier!!

Active couple who are happiest outdoors surrounded by nature
As always Claire and Rusty were fantastic sitters - we highly recommend them looking after Lola and the house as well as they do. Very happy dog, extremely clean and tidy house!
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
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.
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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.
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!
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
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!
Well what can I say about Alyson at Poochee Care ! She looked after our gorgeous cats recently, Daisy who is 21yrs & on medication & Poppy who is 16 yrs, diabetic & requires an insulin injection twice a day. We totally trust her & she is absolutely fanatical about the care she gave them & the importance of their needs. This is the second time she has cared for them & we have already booked her for our November holiday. She is trustworthy, caring & goes above & beyond to show how much she cares for animals, she know they are not just pets, they are family. We would not book anyone else as it takes a lot to leave our beloved cats as they are house cats, very spoilt & so loved. We cannot praise her enough & can highly recommend her. One tip for you all if you read this review, book her quickly as you wont find anyone else as good! Thank you Alyson, Angela, Gary, Daisy & Poppy.
Our Boston Terrier, Domino, has had three 'holidays' with Poochee Care. Domino loves Alyson, Mark and their family as much as her own. She is loved, pampered, indulged and cuddled. Alyson sends us regular photos so we can see how happy Domino is while we are away. Poochee Care provide more than 5 star service! They offer good value for money, are highly professional and 100% reliable. We can't recommend them highly enough.
My dog is 4 and its first time had to consider a boarder. I decided to get to know someone before I needed to use. That way I was happy more importantly the dog got chance to get to know boarder and the person looking after him got to know him. Poochee care ticked everybody. A meet and greet then a 2 hour visit. After that we decided on an afternoon then as it was a first time with staying we did a trial stay over. All went well so now it I need to leave my dog we are all happy. I would never and you should never just dump your dog and go. They are like children and poochee care understands that. Heres to a happy future. Thank you!
I am so thankful to have found Alyson of poochee care to take care of our boys while we are away. It really is a home from home bespoke service with regular photos, videos and updates we felt at ease knowing they were happy and content. However, I did expect a better reaction when I arrived to pick them up 🤦♀️ 😂 but it just proved to me that they had felt at home and so comfortable with the care they had received. I wouldn’t leave the boys with anybody else.
Would 100% recommend Alyson to any dog owner. She is incredibly thorough and takes great care of your dog with a settling in session before overnight stay. Milly had an amazing time with her and we will absolutely use her again in the future. Thank you again!
We have a Cavapoo puppy and I would 100% recommend Alyson. She takes great care of our dog, always updates you and sends regular pictures. We're never let down and Ziggy absolutely loves Alyson as she gives him the best care 🐶 we wouldn't go anywhere else …
Alyson looked after my cockapoo for 8 days whilst I went abroad. Although Alyson had previously looked after Barney for a couple of nights, I was apprehensive leaving him for just over a week as this would be the longest time I’d left him. My concerns were completely alleviated by Alison’s regular updates with photos and videos showing Barney having a great time. Knowing Barney was receiving one on one care with such an experienced dog carer made such a difference. I highly recommend Alyson and her fantastic business which is unique offering solo home from home boarding care. Thank you from Barney and me 😃🐶.
We had a fantastic experience with Alyson. This was our puppy’s first night away from us and so wasn’t sure how she was going to react to this. Alyson put us at ease straight away, offering a short settling in visit a few weeks before her stay and keeping us updated with photos of how she was doing. Our puppy looked content and happy throughout her stay and when we picked her up the next morning she was her usual happy self. This made our trip away so much more enjoyable knowing she was being so well looked after and I will definitely be taking her back to Alyson in the future.
Alyson is fabulous, we are so lucky to have found such a reliable, lovely lady to help with our dog care. She started out by providing puppy visits which lead into regular weekly walks, really boosting our pups confidence & helping with her development. Alyson also provided a warm caring home when we went away on holiday, our puppy was just a few months old at the time. We received regular updates & photos to put our mind at ease. Poochee Care is our number 1 choice for home boarding and dog walking!
We decided to try home visits for our cat while we were on holiday rather than using an cattery and are really pleased we found Alyson. She came round to introduce herself and meet Lyra before hand and then visited every day to feed and play with her. She sent us regular updates and photos. Lyra was really well looked after by Alyson and so much happier staying in her own home than she would have been with the stress of going in a cattery. I would definitely recommend Alyson and use her services again.
This is the 3rd time Carrie has looked after my little Teddy boy and this is the best place for him while we're away. Carrie sends us multiple photos and videos of teddy's adventures while he's there. They go on lots of walks everyday and Carrie has become his 2nd mum. It's so nice to go away knowing Teddy will be having an even better time than us so I never have to worry about him. Would highly recommend to everyone
So pleased that we found Carrie to have our dogs. One of our dogs had separation anxiety, so much, that other boarders wouldn't take her. Was dreading the same happening again, but Carrie was brilliant with her, and our other dog, who had no issues. Carrie said they would have a ball, and she was right !! Daily videos and pictures, showing how happy and settled the dogs were. We were able, for once, to relax on our holiday 100% knowing they were getting loads of love, attention and lovely daily walks. They were treated as part of Carrie's family. We will definitely use Carrie for all our holidays now . In fact, already booked for next year. I highly reccomend her.
Amazing 5*! Would highly recommend Carrie and her family. They made Alfie feel a part of the family and loved and cared for him exceptionally, during our recent holiday. I was kept uptodate with very frequent photographs and videos giving us complete piece of mind whilst away. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Alfie at canine cwtches again, & i am sure he can't wait to return for more fun and adventures. Thanks again Carrie, you are amazing xx
Carrie and her family welcomed our two dogs into their home over the Christmas period. From the first communication with Carrie we found her to be very professional and friendly. During the stay we had a constant stream of photographs and videos as updates, it was was wonderful to see how our furbabies were doing and it was obvious that they had the best care and attention while we were away. It is plain to see that Carrie and her family are true animal lovers. Carrie is extremely knowledgeable and caring and we feel so fortunate to have found her to look after our dogs. I can wholeheartedly recommend this service to anyone looking for home boarding services or dog walking.
Our boys stayed with Carrie while we were on our honeymoon. We had never left them but soon realised that they were in good hands. They had THE BEST time and were like part of the family. We were updated daily with walks and lovely photos which we loved. Thank you, our boys had a blast!! Xx
With an "older" 7 year old dog, I am always anxious about how my collie will settle in with a new dog sitter. On first meeting Carrie, I was put at ease on how Henry would be treated, and I could see he felt at home immediately. We left him for a weekend, and Carrie send loads of updates such as the attached photo, I really enjoyed seeing how much of a good time he had, and he really was treated as part of the family. I can't think Carrie and her family enough for looking after him and I'm sure Henry is looking forward to many more visits in the future!
Thank you for taking such good care of Bailey and for making her part of your family. The daily updates & videos showing that she was enjoying herself put me at ease that she was well looked after, she's come back so chilled & relaxed, she is like a different dog! She's made some new little friends & hopefully will see each other soon Thank you Carrie, Dave & Jotham for all my lovely walks, & taking good care of me see you soon Bailey Bear 🐾
My girls love going here, they are part of the family when they stay and I get up to date photos and videos of all their adventures, I honestly wouldn’t let them go anywhere else
It was the first time for us to board our cockapoo puppy Ziggy so we were very anxious. Carrie reassured us that Ziggy would have a fab time and would settle in. Ziggy is very mischievious and Carrie must have had loads of patience. It was lovely having daily photos and videos keeping us informed. We could see that Ziggy had a blast and made new friends. This allowed us to chill and enjoy our holidays. It was obvious that Carrie loves dogs and is very knowledgeable. We will definitely be booking Ziggy with Carrie again. I would highly recommend Carrie as your pets are treated as part of their family.
Charlie has had the best home from home experience with Carrie and her family. The love, care and attention was 5 star. Would highly recommend them.
Both my Springers have now been with Sam and Tracy for over a year. Both dogs absolutely love to go out with them. Such a friendly caring service. Very very highly recommended.
Honestly 5 stars isn’t enough! Friends for pets Cwmbran are absolute angels in anoraks! My sassy schnauzer loves his days with his furry pals and auntie Tracy or Auntie Sam, he gets so excited when I say their names and he gets even more excited when he here’s the van coming into the road! It makes me so happy to know that he enjoys going and is being well looked after when I am working or away! Highly recommend their services! Always professional, friendly and reliable🐾💛
I want to rate this pooch paradise with more than 5 stars. Sam and Tracy are absolutely wonderful with my dog, Jack, who has weekly day care and over night sleep overs when we go away. Jack loves every minute and he always runs to the door with excitement if I just mention the name Tracy! 🐶 …
My black lab absolutely loves Gemma he loves his walks with his furry friends. The team are really professional, caring and provide a brilliant service. They even provide cat visits and small animal care 5* service xxxx
So pleased we've found Sam to look after our boy. He loves his walks and his behaviour has even improved. Highly recommend Sam, a lovely lady who loves spending time with animals.
Sam has been walking our Labrador for about 6 months. He absolutely loves his walks and new friends. Would highly recommend.
This is an excellent service. Sam is excellent at looking after my Maine Coon cat. I always use her when I am working away. I would highly recommend this service for peace of mind regarding your beloved pets.
My dog loves her walks with Sam and jumps for joy when she collects her
This service is first class, the walkers are amazing and love your pet as if it was there own, best thing I ever did our dog loves her daycare ❤ Highly recommend this service
My gorgeous boy coda loves seeing Maria 🐶 and I can go to work with peace of mind knowing that boy is in good care and trustworthy loving caring people. Thank you x
Our Ralph stayed with them for almost a week and he had the best time. We got daily updates as well as pictures and videos. We saw that he went on plenty of adventures and even learned a new dance! We could not recommend them enough and I know that Ralph cannot wait to go back :)
Fantastic all around! Gutted we didn’t come across Marie at Lead on sooner, Marie has gone above and beyond to help us feel relaxed and gave us daily updates- pictures/videos of our dog. Marie took our dog out exploring the local area and visited forests and other scenic places exposing our dog to new excited environments. It was his first time in boarding and we were anxious leaving him but honestly I can not find a fault with the service that Lead on provides it is amazing! Marie was extremely professional and was super friendly and went out of her way to make sure our dog was relaxed and comfortable in her care. Marie was able to train our dog just in 2 days to do multiple tricks and showed us how to continue these with him at home. Our dog returned home happy, relaxed and trained. Thanks so much 5⭐️
Lead on is an amazing service ! My doggy Oliver and Izzy have all be treated as on Marie on family ! They always love forward seeing hear and always come back happy ! She treat them all family ! They have free run home with loverly and my doggy even had a cup of tea with they love ! U trying the rest now try the best ! She never let now ! Love animal ! Care caring ! Will do a package suit u ! Is fully insured and license ! U love u animal so why but without anyone else !
Absolutely brilliant. My golden retriever was almost hesitant to leave and come home! Marie kept us up to date by sending pictures and telling us all about what they have been up to. They went on several walks and kept busy. 100% recommend this dog sitter, they will give your pet a blast!
My baby girl Mitzy has just returned from a couple of days boarding with Lead On. She had a ball and I was kept fully up to date with all their activities via photos and videos. Some are attached. Mitzy is a 15 year old shih tzu and was so well looked after. I am already looking at the diary for my next work travel dates to book her back in. I would definitely recommend and trust Lead On with my precious fur baby 🥰🐶
Had a fantastic session with Marie . She is very informative and knows her stuff. Instilled confidence in my training skills which transferred to the dog I was working with . Very successful training session . Would 100% recommend to anyone needing a dog trainer
Done the reactive rascals course with Marie today, she provided great knowledge in depth about reactive dogs. I highly recommend people to sit this course, with lead on and get the proper training by someone who is qualified and experienced in this feild.
I couldn’t recommend this company highly enough. Marie is reliable, caring and very trustworthy. She has never let me down and always fits me in at very short notice. My tortoise and cat adore her and to them she is part of the family. She goes above and beyond on a regular basis and I would be lost without her! Thank you so much for everything!
Our young Sprocker is an anxious boy and we're very fussy about who we're prepared to leave him with. Marie and her husband took such good care of him and he had a great time with them - long walks, learning new tricks (for treats of course!) and plenty of cuddles. We got lots of photos and film clips sent to us during the weekend so that we were reassured that he was enjoying his stay. Marie was also very accommodating about the fact that we couldn't give a precise time for picking him up until the day of our return. Highly recommended.
I can’t recommend Lead On’s services enough. My dog Poppy had an overnight stay for the first time recently and she absolutely loved it. Marie is wonderful with dogs and you can tell she really loves them and treats them like one of the family. It’s a real home from home experience and I felt completely comfortable leaving Poppy there. I had constant updates via photos and videos of her stay and that reassured me further on how happy Poppy was. I’ve already booked Poppy in for further stays as I wouldn’t use anyone else now. Thank you so much Lead On.
Cannot recommend enough. My rescue springer was so timid and aggressive towards other dogs when we first had her. Since attending Doggy Daycare with Glen and his pack she is a completely different dog. She plays with the pack and when I walk her now she can be trusted with other dogs, and she listens too. I cannot thank Glenn enough. Amazing ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ your only regret is not giving your dot time with Glenn!!! X
Our puppy 8 month old spaniel has changed completely having been going to Glenn for the last few months. He was 4.5 months when we first took him and needed recall training. He was soon recalling like a dream, he loves it if he hasn’t been for a few days he’ll come find his day care rucksack and wait by the door. It’s to cute - Glenn is patient, consistent and kind and has a natural way with dogs they respect him and he respects them. Wouldn’t send our pupster anywhere else. It’s not doggy day care quick walk and food. It’s a family pack... 🐾🐾🐾
I've been training two pups, mostly from my own research & trial n error. However, when it came to lead training no matter how long I tried I couldn't crack it. I could sense my frustration having an impact on the pups and our walks. Glenn was brilliant. Such a calm nature and the pups were literally eating out of his hands. Within an hour he taught me how reduce pull on a lead as well as promote position whilst on a lead. I spent the day practicing what I'd learnt and was relieved to see positive results so quickly. Glenn is everything I aspire to be. The time spent with him is priceless. Highly recommended
Spectacular results with our German Shepherd. Comes back each Wednesday a happy, and calm dog who clearly benefits from being with the pack and an excellent trainer. Would highly recommend.
Thanks Dianne! 🐾 …
We have been using Sam and the team at Friends for Pets' services since 2020 for our Tilly. We trust that Tilly is well looked after and regularly book her in to have half day adventure daycare, as well as hour long walks and overnight boarding. Tilly absolutely loves Sam and gets so excited to go out with her for her walks. We really appreciate the above-and-beyond care that Tilly receives. We especially appreciate that she comes home clean, despite all of her rolling and making it her mission to get 'absolutely stinking'! We get to see photos and videos of Tilly with her doggy pals when out on walks. We highly recommend Sam, Tracey and the Friends for Pets team, they are really fantastic.
We couldn’t be happier that we found Friends for Pets! After trying several dog walkers in the area, I’m confident in saying they’re the best, hands down! It’s so evident that our dog Lucy loves her adventure walks. Plus I get to see photos and videos of what she’s been up to while I’ve been at work. It’s so reassuring to know that she’s in safe hands. Sam, Tracy and the team do an amazing job. Lucy’s been with them for years and they’re not only super-reliable (and friendly to deal with), but they clearly adore all the dogs and care for them like their own. Very highly recommended ⭐️
Friends for Pets (Newport) are simply the best! Their love, devotion and care for their work is exceptional. My Mini Myla has the best time with Auntie Tracy and the other dogs in her care on their adventure daycare walks; and whenever I go on holidays I know Tracy provides a home from home for Myla too, in fact Tracy spoils her more than we do!!!! Really cannot express how grateful I am for Tracy being a part of Myla’s family, we are very lucky 💖
Meet Sam and Tracy, the dynamic duo of serenity for humans and pure joy for four-legged pals. Rain or shine, they're the guardians of our little princess and her furry comrades, even if it involves a strategic bed scoop (or two, who's counting? 🤪). Distance can't dampen the delight of daily updates, and as for those envy-inducing Welsh walks, well, gratitude kicks in when the weather report includes more rain than rays! ☺️ Thank you for being there for all of us.
Sam and Tracy are absolutely brilliant with moo, she can be quite a nervous girl but I have never seen her be anything but ecstatic to leave with them, they are brilliant and seeing all the fun she has on her walks with the videos they share with all the pup parents are awesome, we absolutely adore them both!
We use Sam to walk our 8 year old Cavachon, George! She and Tracey are absolutely brilliant and George loves his time with them. He does like to sniff out the dreaded fox poo but he always comes back clean! Photos of the walk are uploaded on social media so that you can see the whole pack walking together. I highly recommend their services, nothing is ever too trouble. Thank you, friends for pets!
Sam and her team (Tracey takes our dog Rosie) have been outstanding since we were lucky enough to find them! They take Rosie out twice a week on an adventure walk. Tracey is friendly and reassuring especially as Rosie is quite nervous when meeting new people. Tracey takes her to different places and posts updates and videos. It's wonderful seeing what a fabulous time she's been having. Rosie has become rather anti social since going out with Tracey as she's so tired of an evening she has her dinner then takes herself to bed for the rest of the night! What a find, thank you Sam and Tracey!!!
We have been using Sam for pet sitting for over a year now and so glad we found her. We can always rest easy knowing our cats are well looked after whilst we are away. Sam has always been friendly, reliable and trustworthy. Would highly recommend Friends for Pets for looking after your fur babies ⭐️
Sam is absolutely wonderful, not just with our two dogs but a wonderful caring person and we are so pleased we found her to help us with walking times and separation work. Both Flynn and Ada have grown to love her and trust her and she's brilliant with them both, so patient and caring. She's so flexible with times and days and have helped us out a great deal in times when I've been unable to walk them myself. Sam is one of the most reliable and punctual people I know! Always turns up on time with two very excited dogs to see her. Thanks so much, we really appreciate your help 😊
Sam, Tracey and Maria are such an amazing team. In six months Ted has gone from being a nervous pup who didn’t want to be away from his mum for a one hour socialisation walk, to a super excited dog who cannot wait to get out the door for a full day of adventure daycare! The team are so caring and really listen to your dogs quirks and needs and treat them as if it’s their own. They have helped so much with Ted’s confidence and separation issues. I highly recommend them!
I have a Doberman puppy with severe separation anxiety, I contacted Ben who introduced us to the lovely Laura who has been walking and sitting with my pup for a good few months now & I could not recommend this company and its employees enough, they go above and beyond to provide 5+ star service! They are all so friendly, kind & compassionate and above all put the needs of your animal first! They’ve also provided me with a lot of support through the struggles of my dog’s separation anxiety and more training than I could’ve imagined! No request is too big or too small for these guys and always have a solution for everything! Absolutely brilliant 🤩
Had PAWSitive Pet Sitting &Dog Walking look after my two boys Bertie and Basil. They were fantastic, it was reassuring to see daily photos of what they were up to. Special dietary needs were taken care of and both my dogs were able to stay in their home environment rather than go into kennels. It's such a relief to know that your beloved pets are well cared for. Thank you so much.
Ben is a lovely guy and really reliable. We left him to care for our 2 cats while we went away for a little holiday. Throughout our trip we had daily updates and pictures which was really reassuring. The little touches also add up, Ben will open and close the blinds, collect mail, water plants, put the bins out, to name a few. These small touches really made us feel comfortable while away. We would 100% recommend this service, so much so we have more bookings with Ben for layer in the year :)
having used pawsitive pet sitting for the first time for our annual holiday, we were absolutley satisfied with their service. we were updated on a regular basis, with text messages and images to reassure us our furrrrbabies were in good hands :-). we will certainly use them again when needed.
We have Great expression with Ben PAWsitive pet sitting and Dog walking. We highly recommend it. Either dog walking or pet sitting, Bethan and Laura are great in both the jobs. Thank you for having Baloo 🐕 and Bagheera 🐈⬛. …
I would highly recommend Ben - Pawsitive pet sitting! He looked after Jess my cat when I was away. He has full credentials, was attentive, gave regular updates and took great care of her! Will definitely book again in future!
Our three boys adore Ben, likewise Ben adores them. Ben has nurtured and cared for our boys just like they were his own. We can not thank Ben for everything he does for us all. He never misses a beat and will always update us with pictures and messages to put our minds at ease. We thank our lucky stars we found Ben we would be lost without him now ❤
Brilliant service, very friendly & caring. PAWSitive cat sit for me when I go away, everyday twice a day morning & night he feeds & gives my cat attention for half an hour before leaving. My cat is very relaxed with the sitter. Yes I would definitely recommend.
Ben came and pet sat my dogs and did a marvelous job! Would highly recommend and I'm sure the dogs would too 😊 he spent lots of time fussing and giving them lots of attention. Giving my older dog her medication and multivitamin daily! Thanks Ben 🙂
Very happy with the service provided to look after my dog when I away for 4 nights. Competitive prices and I felt my dog was in safe, caring hands. Highly recommended A*.
Sadly I have a nervous dog that I informed the walker of before any walk was conducted. Now after only 2 1 hour walks they have decided they no longer want to walk my dog which i guess us thwre right but given they have a diploma in behavioural training I was hoping they would help but, instead, they have blamed my dog for making the other dogs misbehave which think is a bit off . I am gutted but we move on
Where do I start? Becky has allowed me to relax while I'm away from my puppy at work. I fully relax and trust her as I know how much Walter loves seeing her. Becky has followed all my intense training and commands and it definitely shows as when I get home Walter is so well behaved. I highly recommend Becky. She listens and follows through and cares for him like he is her own. Becky is a very lovely woman too. ☺️ I will use her doggy services forever now. ❤️
Becky has been walking my dog since July this year, to begin with was very satisfied with my walks. I left my previous dog walker as Becky stated her walks start from the moment she starts walking with my dog which my previous walker didn’t (plus Becky was half the price). Every time my dog was taken out he was brought back early, half hour early sometimes when I’m paying for an hour. After I left a good review and Becky found out I had a camera in the house to watch my dog whilst he is alone (always had it from before Becky started walking him) things felt different. I got the impression that she no longer wanted to walk my dog. I payed a day or 2 late a few times but ALWAYS paid for the week in advance. The one time I forgot to pay before his walk she cancelled our agreement without any warning and said she will no longer be walking my dog. Even though I was made to sign an agreement that myself and Becky had to give a weeks notice for termination of agreement. The same day she locked herself out my house with my dog and couldn’t get back in (I was in work no where near my house so that was stressful), brought another dog into my home (very bad idea as my dog can be snappy with other dogs at the best of times and has never had another dog in my home so not sure how he would react?) all because my driveway was taken up to which Becky confirmed she would not take on a dog which didn’t have a driveway? which is ridiculous if you ask me. Excuse after excuse and very disappointed with the service.
Becky is very professional and you can just tell she loves and cares for the dogs in her care! She has recently taken on our 6 month old puppy and we feel safe and confident leaving him in her care! She provides updates/photos and videos whilst looking after Lenny and it’s such a nice touch! I would 100% recommend Becky, a brilliant service and Lenny loves his time with her!
A professional and reliable service: Becky was recommended to us by Wilson’s Mum (see Becky’s Facebook posts about her work with that adorable hound). Our Labrador, Millie, and our special needs Greyhound, Flynn, had the pleasure of her company at lunchtime whilst we were away on holiday. I understand that Millie power walked Becky on the first occasion, but Becky soon turned that around! Perhaps dog and owner training would be the natural next step for Becky, as we can’t get Millie to walk like a lady no matter how hard we try! We look forward to working with Becky Happy Tails again. I’d wag my tail, if I had one!
Becky has been walking my 1yr old Cockapoo Bella for a couple of weeks now. Bella can be nervous round new people but Becky put Bella at ease by getting to know her first. Becky's clearly loves her job and her professional knowledge of dogs and kindness provides the reassurance you need to leave your beloved pet in confidence. Highly recommend Becky’s services.
Becky and Sam are so friendly, welcoming and helpful! They love my dog as they would their own. I can tell Ronnie is well looked after with them as he is so happy when he sees them. I have 1000% trust in them for walkies and over night stays. Would recommend to anyone that needs some help when looking after their dog. Thank you ☺️
I would love to write a essay on how impressed I am at the professionalism and care shown to our dog which was looked after for 8 nights. Lots of walk and play made for a lovely time for her. If you want to be sure that your dog is in the best place possible then there is no where else to consider. I think Daisy had as nice a holiday as I did and the socialisation with the other dogs was brilliant. Will use Becky again without hesitation. Thank You 😊.
We highly recommend Becky both for her professional approach and for her obvious love of dogs. She walks Katy who is disabled and is on wheels. She has also developed a relationship with Cauli who is very nervous and reactive dog. Very happy with the service.
I took my 4 month old Rottweiler to visit Becky and her husband at their house and instantly everything felt right.. the environment was lovely and homely, everything is done methodically and professionally (in terms of looking after the dogs, when they go out, what dogs are suitable with others etc.) but at the same time so relaxed and laidback. I received pictures/updates throughout the day. When I collected pup I could tell she was happy and by her eyes closing she’d had a very stimulating day. I was given all possible information about her day and since being home she has been flat out asleep..much to my joy! From being professional to caring to being wonderful people it’s 5* from me and I know my pup will enjoy her weekly visits for the upcoming future!
Highly recommend the Dog Spa. Picked up Flora this morning after her 2nd stay here and she was so happy. The staff are so friendly and Flora was all over them which shows she's thoroughly enjoyed her time there again. She is a cardboard chewer and they ensured she had a regular supply 🤣🤣. Knowing that our fur babies are enjoying their holidays means we can relax and enjoy ours. Thank you Dog Spa.
We visit the dog spa regularly for hip dysplasia treatment. This consists of two hydrotherapy sessions a week and one physiotherapy session. All of the staff are absolutely wonderful. Mylo is extremely nervous in this type of environment and they are doing absolutely everything they can to make him comfortable. Its incredible to see his anxiety decrease as we go more often, he's only been going for 2 weeks but it's already changed him for the better. Thank you The Dog Spa!!
My labrador Nala went to her first Hydro Therapy session at The Dog Spa today. (Hip dysplasia treatment). Norah was absolutely amazing with her. I highly recommend this place. Thank you so much for making my girl feel welcome and at ease.
Not for me really but fantastic for my hound. Burt is a real gentleman made my dog feel at ease.
Great staff, very knowledgeable and treated my dog as if he was their own, made me feel relaxed about leaving him there again if/when I need too
Fab place great layout, beds have heated lamps, plenty of room to run around even when they are in cages, they cater for your dogs need, feeding times ect. Will definitely be using again ☺️
Just been to take our dog for his first physio with Denise, we were very happy, she was very good with our dog, he was relaxed, she explained things well & has given us exercises to do at home. he's booked in next week for physio & hydrotherapy. Would recommend.
Wonderful place to board your furry friend for the holidays. My two quite nervous dogs strain on the leash to go in and return home happy and settled. Possible option of a bath and groom too! Highly recommended.
Great little business offer kennel service, training, doggy health treatments and a little shop lovely staff. Nothing to much trouble and great advise from a very knowledgeable seasoned dog lovers, these guys have so many awards including crufts.
Used Bert and Nora for a good few years and have always been happy with the service kennels and hydrotherapy and dog always seem to be happy when I pick him up.👍 …
Michelle took great care of our two cats while we were away on holiday for a week. She fed and watered them, cleaned the litter trays, let them in and out of the house and spent time playing with them. Excellent service!
Michelle is a very reliable and caring person who clearly loves animals. I feel totally secure and happy leaving my cat Wolfie in her capable hands when I go away on holiday. She spends time with Wolfie, playing his favourite catch game with him and that's just what he needs when I'm not around. Michelle writes a very detailed report about Wolfie which I love to read it when I get back. I know she takes excellent care of him. Michelle will water your plants, and bring in your refuse bins if you request that. Michelle is an absolute treasure and I don't know what I'd do without her. I would highly recommend using her to look after your pet..
Michelle is absolutely fantastic! Summer my CKC spaniel has been enjoying group walkies with her for the last 3 years and always has so much fun! Michelle is professional and reliable and cares very much for the pets she looks after. I would highly recommend Michelle's Pet Care Service.
Amazing care for our cats. They love the fuss she makes of them. Michelle always looks after our house too & gets the important milk in for us after our holidays. A real pet fan she always writes a detailed daily report about them for us to return to & knows them very well. The last few times we’ve had photos sent of them too which is so reassuring. Would never use anyone else. 6 star service. Thanks Michelle.
Following a recommendation by our vet Michelle has been cat sitting our rescue cat for several years. Michelle provides a first class comprehensive professional service whilst still maintaining a caring personal approach. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
Michelle looks after our cat Malt so well. He clearly loves her company, and we enjoy reading his 'report card' when we get back! I'd wholeheartedly recommend Michelle's Pet Care Service.
For several years Michelle has been very reliable visiting our cat (even in the heavy snow). She is easy to contact, plan & book, whether it is long term planning or sometimes short notice. She is kind & patient with our ageing boy. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Michelle. 😺 …
Michelle has been walking Bob since he was a puppy, she is very reliable and cares about the dogs welfare and happiness. A top class service and I would highly recommend.
Michelle has looked after Holly for years and we are always happy with the service! Holly was very nervous around other people but was happy to sit with Michelle for a fuss. Would definitely recommend.
I have had Michelle pet sit for quite a few years now and would highly recommend 😊 …
