Former Minister/American Ex-Pat Looking for New Pet Pals to Meet and Love
Another wonderful sit by Charlie. The pups are so content with him and the regular updates we receive just show how happy they are! House was spotless and I really cant emphasise how lucky we are to have Charlie.

Tanya & Marc...here to help!
Tanya and Marc were great, from the moment we spoke to them on Zoom. We had to a virtual handover due to an early morning flight. They kept us up to date with cat updates, they were really understanding that Yeti didn’t want to come and say hi and made sure he was comfortable outside by putting food out for him everyday. Tali loved the extra attention and I was so happy to come home to a clean house with their sheets and towels clean. Would highly recommend them and would happily have them back.

Mature, experienced and trustworthy...and crazy about dogs!!
Caroline and Rob are the best the house sitters you could wish for. They were very flexible with our arrival and departure times due to our flights and nothing was any trouble. We did not worry about Teddie for a second as we knew he was in great hands and was being spoiled rotten. Caroline and Rob sent daily video's and photos of their various walks, tea shops and walks to our local pub. It was such a joy to know that they were enjoying their stay and Teddie was as happy as larry! Caroline and Rob are fabulous and very caring and 5 stars are not enough! When we returned home the house was immaculate, and Teddie was beautifully groomed and very happy. We cannot thank Caroline and Rob aka Auntie C and Uncle B enough for their care, patience and the genuine affection to our Teddster. We are all looking forward to seeing you in March. Thank you so very much xx

Jordan and Marta are simply the very best house sitters. They cared for Martha our cat and she was obviously smitten with them. They kept and left the house immaculate, even down to tidying our knife and fork drawer!! We would have them back tomorrow to look after us, let alone the cat!! Fantastic sitters.

An animal loving couple Looking forward to caring for your home and pets.
Sharon and Jeff were great house sitters. Arriving early after we changed the times they came straight in and met the dogs. Mutual love at first sight. We returned to a clean and tidy house and happy, groomed dogs that have been sulking since they left. We went off confident that they could copy with everything which is just what you need when leaving for 2 weeks. Hopefully they will sit for us again with better weather !!

We are both animal lovers looking for new adventures with time to explore the UK
Phil & Liz are very experienced sitters and this shows. Very relaxed, very easy to deal with, our dogs looked so happy and healthy and the house was clean and tidy on our return. We were kept updated during our holiday via whatsapp. We would love to host Phil and Liz again.

It was a last-minute arrangement which we really appreciated. Dogs were looked after well. We would be happy to recommend him to others to use.

Kind, independent and travel addicted animal lover
Ebony is an amazing sitter. Her communication before arrival was excellent. From the time she arrived the cats seemed very comfortable with her. She kept me updated throughout the sit, even following up when I had a problem getting messages. My flight home was delayed and she very kindly stayed late to give the cats dinner. I arrived home to a spotless house, with even fresh sheets on the bed and all the laundry done, and most importantly super happy cats! I cannot recommend her highly enough. Anyone would be lucky to have her looking after their precious pets and home. I do hope she can sit for me again one day!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
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.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their 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 them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were 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 Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make 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 of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. 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. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
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!
Tammy has taken our rather nervous whippet Wilf out for walks and patiently let him get used to being away from us his humans. He does suffer with separation anxiety but now happily leaves the house with Tammy and has met up with other dogs in her group. We're very impressed with Tammy and the work she is doing with Wilf to build up his confidence around others. We highly recommend Clare Stan & Wilf
Tammy is absolutely amazing!! We initially had 1:1 training sessions where she provided so many useful tips and information for us to correct and work on. We saw improvements very quickly from the knowledge she has shared. My boy now goes on group walks weekly and loves his time with Tammy and the gang. Would highly recommend and would not go anywhere else…I don’t think my boy would want to either, he loves Tammy Time!!
I left my Hamster with Tammy while I went away . And aww she was great with him . I dint have to worry about anything he was in good hands. And she kept me updated on him . Tammy is absolutely lovely , so kind and welcoming . Wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pet with her again . Thank you xx
Tammy has been brilliant with our staffy Layla since she was a puppy. She benefits so much from her weekly walk with the other dogs and we always appreciate the advice that we get from Tammy.
Tammy looked after my pets whilst I was away. I have 6 cats, 5 tortoises and lizards. She was not fazed by my mini zoo. Everything was done professionally, she came for a visit prior to our holiday to check on all their needs. Would definitely recommend her services.
Tammy is absolutely amazing, with out crazy pooch Daisy. Right from the beginning nothing was to much trouble, and still isn’t she is always there ton offer advice also I know when Daisy is out with her she is safe and happy. Tammy has formed beautiful bond with Daisy the point we say Tammy’s name and she is at the window looking for her !! I wouldn’t use anyone else !!
We have used Dog Walking and Pet Sitting services, several times and have always found them reliable, and willing to go above and beyond when looking after our cat Kismet. I will use them again in the future and would have no hesitation in recommending Tammy to look after your pet.
My dog loves his walks with Tammy and her team , he’s a much calmer, more sociable dog since his interaction with other dogs and the training he receives during his walks
Dog walking and pet sitting services are amazing and i would recommend this service for any pet owners, whatever breed of animals you have ,
Thank you so much for your 5* rating 😁 …
Recently had Lisa look after my Frenchie and my cat whilst I was on holiday. Lisa kept me informed, sent me photos on every visit, provided cuddles/treats. Reliable and excellent service. I could not fault anything. I came home to two very happy pets. 🙂 …
Lisa looked after our cat whilst we were away - an initial meet and greet beforehand plus daily picture updates during visits, gave us peace of mind that she was happy and really felt comfortable around Lisa 😊 it’s great that your pet can be comfortable in their own home! Will definitely book again. …
Lisa is totally trustworthy and reliable she sent me photos daily of my beloved pets it enabled me to have a worry free holiday and she went above and beyond My boys loved her and I will definitely be calling on her every time I go on holiday
We are so glad we found Happier Pets at Home. Lisa is amazing! Our two dogs love being spoilt and receiving lots of cuddles from her. Lisa send lots of pup-dates in the form of photos and videos, so you can see how happy and content your pets are. Lisa leaves your home spotless - you would never guess someone has stayed! We have had Lisa on numerous occasions and couldn’t recommend her highly enough! We have made our future bookings already. Thanks Lisa 😊
Lisa did everything to make my two rescue dogs feel happy and secure at home whilst their Mums (me and my daughter) left them for a holiday.. the first time we'd ever left them. Lisa had an initial visit so was aware of some issues she might encounter with regards our fear-reactive girl, anxious on lead. Lisa dealt with this with experience and professionalism, putting the dogs needs first. Both were cared for excellently and I had regular updates, pics and videos. I also trusted my home completely with her. I would definately recommend Lisa to friends, and know now it is possible to leave my dogs without them fretting. Thankyou soooo much!!
Lisa did an amazing job of looking after our anxious dog whilst we were away. She also sent us lots of pictures and videos of him having fun. I'd definitely recommend. We've already rebooked for later in the year
If you want someone who REALLY cares for your pets then Lisa is the one. She goes to great lengths to ensure that she knows all the routines & little behaviour quirks is f your fur babies. My two cats are much happier in their own environment rather than a cattery & Lisa makes this happen. One of my cats loves attention & is guaranteed head scratches, strokes & cuddles with Lisa. My other cat is quite nervous & timid but even she is happy to have Lisa come & visit & give her her meals. The extras that Lisa provided too are brilliant - bins in/out, garden watered, blinds closed/opened. I cannot recommend Lisa enough - your pets will be lovingly cared for.
Cannot thank lisa enough for looking after our 3 cats while we were away. She gave them care and attention, gave me regular updates and pictures, and went out of her way to come back to let them back inside when the weather turned. This was our first time having somebody pop in to look after them, she gave me complete peace of mind, was honest and reliable. She even put our bin out, because we had forgotten. I will definitely ask lisa to look after them again when we book another break, and i would 100% recommend her to anyone x
Lisa visited us & the cats a couple of times before our weekend away. She kept us regularly updated with photos after each visit, and spent time playing with & fussing both cats. We've already booked her services for a couple of longer breaks later in the year.
Lisa is perfect I have 2 cats and 2 dogs She totally understood my needs as my dogs are use to me working from home. House vist before hand to give me piece of mind. Updates throughout the day Clean house and very happy pets on my home arrival Many thanks Lisa Booked already for September x
This is the second review I'm leaving and, judging from my overall experience, I would no longer recommend this service. Or, at least, proceed with caution. The first couple of times were absolutely fine, with picture updates and my dog returning back to us in a normal way. However, the service became progressively worse to the point we thought she was just abandoning our dog. Weight loss, scruffy look, and lots of crying from my dog leads me to believe she wasn't taken care of. Last time we got her back was the last straw. She looked like a homeless dog that had never been touched, left abandoned, lost weight, and was whining like never before. At that point we decided never again. It had become too expensive and our dog clearly hated it. We love our dog too much to leave it with someone who clearly doesn't provide the right care. I wouldn't be surprised if she mistreated her as well. If you love your dog, I'd probably look elsewhere. If it's just a dog to you, then go ahead.
We recently used Kirstie’s “wedding chaperone” service for our wedding in September. Our pug, Pep stayed with Kirstie and her family for 3 nights and we cannot thank them enough for the service. We had regular updates and pictures of how Pep was doing and to be able to have our dog with us on our wedding day was so special 🤍 Helena & Andy Hampson
It’s took a few days for me to process things and I wasn’t going to leave a review but I feel I have too for anyone who loves their dog as much as I love mine. When I first met Kirstie she came across as a really nice, genuine person and I felt really comfortable leaving my dog with her/them for 9 nights. Being completely honest I’m pretty disgusted in the state I picked Bailey back up in. Although I provided weighed out and labelled food for each day I could see he had lost weight, you could see his ribs and his harness was loose which has always been tight! He was dirty with stained eyes which he didn’t have before I left him. Endless panting through dehydration and backwards sneezing which has never been that bad before. I mean they could have least cleaned/wiped his eyes! The large amount of forms you fill in prior to the stay specifically asks questions about using dog shampoo and you could clearly see he had not been cleaned or washed at all!! He had 2 cuts, one on his head and one under his neck which means he had obviously been bitten by another dog!! He was severely malnourished and has slept most days since I picked him back up. He is half the dog he was before I left him there. He was that hungry he nearly took my hand off when I fed him. I am really disappointed in how he’s come back home and urge no one to send there dog there. I have read lots of good reviews but I’m sorry to say this one isn’t. No real updates and I had to text 3 days in to my holiday to ask if he was okay. No videos or pictures of walks which leads me to believe there weren’t any. Overall shocking tbh and I won’t ever be using Hotel for Hounds again.
My dogs stayed with Kirstie for their first ever holiday break without us. They came home happy and healthy like they'd never been away. We got regular pup dates and they looked to be enjoying their brak as much as us. Already looking to book for next year's holiday.
I will 100% be using kirstie again we left our 2 year old chorkie with her whilst went on holiday she sent us pictures regularly so we knew she was in good hand even got her to interact with other dogs as our dog is really shy. Kirstie made me at ease promising us if there was problems she would let us no. I would definitely recommend kirstie to my friends and family thank you kirstie and Danny.
Kirstie is an exceptional dog sitter. She treats our dog Daisy, like her own and Daisy loves going there to get cuddles! Kirstie home is well setup to look after dogs with space for safe play as well as rest. Kirstie is responsive and reliable, she is always our first choice! We will continue to use her for many years to come
We can’t thank Kirstie and her family enough for caring for our fur baby, it was our first time putting any of our animals in a boarding home so we were very anxious leaving her. But Kirstie made us feel very welcome to look around her home where our Roxi would play and sleep and Kirstie reassured us with any questions we had. While we were on our holiday Kirstie also updated us with photos of Roxi and told us how well she had settled in, we loved the little updates as we could see she was having a good time. We will definitely be in touch with Kirstie again to book Roxi in with her and would definitely recommend Kirstie to our friends and family. We can’t Thankyou enough as Roxi was so happy and bouncy when she came back to us 💜 xx
Kirstie is a god send. Our pup is under her care for one day every week and he absolutely loves going. We have sent him to other day cares before and he didn't react well to going back, but he gets excited to arrive at Hotel 4 Hounds (which says a lot). He has slept over on numerous occasions and we always receive updates, photos and videos of how he is. We totally trust that our pup is being well looked after and couldn't recommend more!
Kirstie & Danny have been looking after our shy little cockapoo puppy since he was about 6 months old. They understand his nature and have been flexible to slowly introduce him to day care and make sure he gets what he needs when there. Kirstie has a great passion for dogs and seems to have really gotten to know ours and loves his character. It is great to see him drag me to the house every week and fall on his back for a belly rub when Kirstie opens the gate... and not seem to have missed us much at all after his first sleepover! Thank you so much for caring for him over the past few months, I look forward to every time I can leave him with you in future 😃
We left our 8 month old pup with kirstie & Danny for a week whilst we went away. He absolutely loved it. He was taken out for regular walks & got on well with their dogs & other doggy guests that were staying. Kirstie sent us regular updates & photos which was so reassuring. I would recommend hotel 4 hounds & the price is very reasonable. He was exhausted when he got home. Thanks guys x
I have been taking my poodle Jackson to Dolittles Dogs since Lucy opened. He loves going to see Lucy and his doggy friends and runs in everytime very happy and excited. Lucy cares for Jackson and ensures he is happy and well I would highly recommend Dolittles daycare
My two elder dogs attend Doolittle day care and I would not send them anywhere else. Lucy is so caring and the dogs absolutely love her. As one of my dogs is deaf and partially sighted Lucy always takes extra care ensuring she isn’t left out of the fun.
Thank goodness for Doolittles dog daycare. I have taken my dog here for almost 4 years now and honestly wouldn't know what to do without them. I can go to work knowing my beloved dog is being taken care of by Lucy. Dolittles has always been obliging and supportive with last minute bookings and offered good advice about my dog. In fact people comment on her good behaviour and I know this is due to her attending Dolittles and the training and play sessions provided by Lucy. The fees are excellent, competitive and worth every penny. There is so much more I could write about Dolittles ❤️ so I would definitely recommend them and urge people to book in. I have recommended them to friends and work colleagues and they continue to benefit from the daycare service too. I even take my dog on the days I'm not in work because she enjoys going, I think the full body wiggle at their front door when going In demonstrates that 🐶🐾💖
What a fabulous place this is. Our dog Skip absolutely loves going to play with all his new doggy friends. Lucy and the team are brilliant. Recently my wife had a hip replacement and Skip went full time for 6 weeks whilst she was recovering. We don't know what we would have done without Dolittle's it was a life saver. Thank you Lucy and all the team xx
Amazing place! It a lifesaver for us, gives our high energy dog invaluable socializing with other dogs. Our dog Nala just loves it, and we love seeing updates on Facebook of her throughout the day. Lucy is very reliable and you can tell she just loves the dogs!
Our cocker spaniel Poppy has been going to Dolittle's for nearly a year now; best decision we made. She absolutely loves going: she can't wait to get out of the car in the morning. Lucy has created a safe, playful environment - superb for puppies and adult dogs to learn vital social skills. Great first meeting and initial assessment, followed by a couple of 1/2 day sessions to see how Poppy would react to being a young pup with lots of other dogs. Typically Poppy is there two days a week while we head to the office. Easy to book online with the app and the social media updates throughout the day show the 'kids' are active, having fun and learning how to socialise with other dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds. Together with our own training, we've got a happy, sociable non-reactive dog that we can take pretty much anywhere and is a joy to own. Highly recommended 100% 😊
Dolittles doggie day care is amazing! Our westie Nellie loves going...she waits by the door on the days she goes! Staff are fab and obviously love all their furry friends! Thank you! X
My Bear loves attending Day Care. Lucy does a wonderful job and I wouldn't trust Bear with anyone else. Highly recommend !!
Great daycare, our dog loves going. Staff are friendly, great at keeping you informed and love the dogs.
Our Springer Pup has been attending here for the last few months. He loves it, I know this because he literally drags my wife there in the mornings! He sleeps like a log when he returns home. Even though my wife works from home we thought it important that he has the opportunity to socialise with other dogs. He is a calm and sociable dog and we definitely put that down to him attending Doolittle's
Our lab loves Chris and she is always really well looked after. Chris walks our dog and also has her for boarding. She is always happy to see Chris and it is obvious that Chris loves the dogs in her care and makes them feel at home in her own home.
**Chris is wounderful** We asked Chris to walk our cockerpoo (smudge) on our wedding day, she was able to come meet him and take him for a little 30 minute walk before the big day and smudge was happy and got along well with the other dogs, Chris sent us videos and images. We was so happy with her service, Thank you again. Xx
this morning while I was out with my belgium malinois I saw chris struggling to walk loads of dogs. upon seeing chris I recalled my dog and put it on a lead. chris didn't get the memo about dog etiquette because as I walked through the gate my dog was charged at by one of the dogs under chris care. NOT ON A LEAD chris knew this dog was going to charge as when she saw me she screamed at the dog. if you use this dog walker and she allows your dog to go off lead and it charges another Chris's insurance will not cover her. as dog walking insurance is only VALID FOR DOGS UNDER CONTROL. Chris clearly has no control and is putting other people's dogs in danger. 1million% would NOT recommend. Yes I have all this on film too
Chris is fantastic with my dog Tilly, I wouldn't trust anyone else! Chris walks Tilly weekly and nothing is ever to much trouble, she makes me feel so relaxed that I can go to work & know that Tilly is well taken care of! I love the updates via the Facebook page getting to see what Tilly & her doggie friends are up to. We also use Chris for boarding Tilly when we are away, she's looking forward to even more cuddles! 😀
Chris is a lovely person that our dogs love. If we need to get the dogs out of our garden, all we have to say Auntie Chris is here and they are on the window sill in seconds. We feel our dogs are safe and enjoying the experience. Chris started of our dog walker and now a friend we can depend on. Call Chris and if she can help she will.
Perfect dog walked 100% safe Archie loves his walks 🐕🐕🐾🦴 …
Chris has been caring for our 10 year old border collie since she was 6 months old.. Initially at dodgy day care until Chris started up Chris’s K9 boarding and walks where we followed her! Chris has such an incredible bond with all the dogs she works with and she’s cares for them and loves them as if they were her own. Chris is such a lovely, kind, caring person. Our dog has weekly walks and boards with ‘Aunty Chris’ whenever we go away. I know that she will be just as happy when we return as when we left her as Chris makes her house a home from home. I actually think she sometimes would rather stay, she has so much fun! 😂 I can’t recommend Chris highly enough!
I cant recommend Chris enough, been amazing with our dog since day one. He's an anxious little lad but Chris has never had a problem getting him out, he's like a different dog! Knowing he's happy and settled on walks and whilst staying with her takes the stress and worry out when he's away. Fabulous!
Chris has been walking & boarding our 2 dogs for the last 4 years. We wouldn't want to go anywhere else. The dogs love her & so do we! She is like the dog whisperer. And she never let's us down. Always flexible & helps us out whenever we need her. Prices very good too. Don't know what we'd do without her!!
Chris is amazing with the dogs in her care and each one is treated like her own. Chris takes them on the most wonderful walks and if your pooch is boarding, they will get all the comforts of home. You get regular updates of photos and videos and Chris will always work with you around your busy lives. Chris really does go above and beyond What a gem.
Fantastic service, reasurring and made sure my cat was safe and looked after. Couldnt ask for better, I'd recommend this service to anyone.
Very good
Liz and Keith have been looking after our dogs for about three years now and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The dogs come home happy and exhausted every time, which with collies is not easy! They all love going to Auntie Liz's and we know they're in great hands while we're away. Liz also comes in and feeds our exotics if we're away for more than one or two nights and I haven't found an animal they won't take care of as yet! Precious Paws are completely trust worthy and I would not hesitate in suggesting them to anyone looking for a dog walker, day care provider, dog boarder/home visitor or any other service
Great dog sitting service provided my Liz and Keith. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they are very flexible with our needs in looking after our dog. Nothing is ever too much even administering medications which can be tricky. Everything they do is much appreciated.
I can only give 1 star due to ringing up and asking about boarding for my 2 dogs I spoke to Liz and everything seemed great arranged 0a meet and great and she never turned up, or let me know she was wasn't coming. I phoned and rescheduled for the day after again no show! no explanation no call or reply to my text. she didn't answer her phone to me after several days so I gave up and found someone who could be bothered to do there job.
Marley absolutely loves Precious Paws. They are extremely reliable and caring. My dog absolutely loves the home boarding they provide and no longer goes to kennels when we are away. Best decision I made getting precious Paws to walk marley while im at work. Thank you xxx
In my humble opinion this is the best dog walking business in middleton. They continuously go above and beyond for the dogs in their care and I wish I could give them 10 stars. Brilliant business which I trust to provide a high quality service every time
Lily loves her days with Liz and Keith she has also enjoyed her time with the other dogs. Definitely recommend.
Unprofessional. Everytime I pick my dog up he's in the small area. Has come home injured several times after "falling off the trampoline". Wouldn't recommend.
Bengi and Minnie love their walks and stays with Liz and Keith.
Friendly & caring nature but £9 per Dog per day ? Far to Expensive . .
My two dogs go every year and love it.
My cocker spaniel has been coming to Waggy since he was a pup and it’s his favourite time of the week. He loves Hannah & Sophie & all the staff and he’s made lots of friends, if he could live there I think he would! He always comes home with a smile on his face and has a great nights sleep after being at daycare! 💤 🐾 …
This place is an absolute gem to be able to send our Ruby to. I love how the day has a routine and they do training that goes alongside what you're doing at home. The report cards every day are really helpful and the staff are always there to answer any questions and offer advice. It's helped to improve Ruby's socialisation skills and confidence with other dogs as well as burning off a lot of energy! Would highly recommend Waggy Warehouse to anyone looking for the best care for their dogs!
Dexter and Ronnie have been going to waggy for a while now. They both enjoy it very much and look forward to going each week. They have so many doggie friends and love to play and learn new tricks!😊 The staff are very friendly and look after the dogs like their own. I can can highly recommend Waggy Warehouse to anyone that has a dog!
My dog Lucky has been coming here for 4 + years and loves it. All the staff are friendly and welcoming and give you confidence that your dog is being very well looked after. Highly recommend 👍👍👍 …
My Fur baby, Teddy goes to Waggy Warehouse at least once aweek, and Hannah is always there to greet us much to Teddy's delight! Teddy is very particular about people, but all the staff are so good with him, as soon as he knows we are on our way to see his friends he is super excited, he runs in with the biggest smile on his face and I can tell he is in two minds about coming home at the end of the day! Teddy has some gorgeous doggy friends, Dexter and Dotty to name a few. I love seeing the Facebook pictures and getting his report card telling me what he has been doing each day and who he has played with. I cant recommend waggy warehouse enough.
Our hyperactive 8 month old rescue puppy had her first half day here and absolutely loved it. Can't wait to take her back. Staff are all lovely and knowledgeable and offer great advice too. Here she is half hour after getting home. First time she has seen her crate got straight in and fell asleep.
Tilly recently had a few sessions with Crissy to have her teeth cleaned, Crissy was recently trained in Emmi pet teeth cleaning. I do clean Tillys teeth but after a routine groom I asked Crissy to check her teeth, after seeing the photos I decided to go ahead as I wasn’t cleaning them as well as I thought, after a few sessions Tilly’s teeth are looking so much better, I received regular photos which I have posted below, Crissy is amazing with Tilly and Tilly was very settled whilst having it done. Would highly recommend this service.
Pippin currently attends 3 times a week and absolutely loves it! She enjoys playing and socialising with all the other dogs and looks forward to Mark picking her up in the waggy cab each morning! I would highly recommend Waggy Warehouse! 😄 …
My lab absolutely loves her time at Waggy Warehouse. She can’t wait to get in the door when we arrive. It’s really helped her socialisation with dogs and humans alike. She wasn’t very confident before she started going. The staff are super and we sometimes organise pick up which is really helpful too.
My dog has been going to waggy for several years and he absolutely loves it. They genuinely care about your dog and put a lot of thought and effort into ensuring they have a great time when they are there. Evenings after he has been to Waggy are lovely and peaceful 😁 …
Such a brilliant find, our three nervous dogs had a fantastic stay and we received daily updates and photos whilst we were away. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again after being let down last minute elsewhere. Also helps that the guy running the kennels is very warm and friendly. Really superb to deal with. Thank you mate.
This is the best place we have ever experienced in terms of dog care. Our German Shepherd is very reactive and difficult to manage. James is fantastic with him, has him socialising with other dogs every day (something we thought no longer possible) and gives him so much exercise, sends us photos and gives him training and brushes him, and we can see how much he adores dogs himself. It feels like we are leaving him with a family friend to look after him, rather than boarding kennels, because of how much we love our dog going there. I could not recommend this place enough, not to mention how reasonably priced it is!
James is so good at what he does. My little dog actually looks forward to staying at Hareshill. Ellie always comes back happy ,healthy and well cared for. I can't recommend James any higher. He is professional and caring and we can holiday free in the mind our little dog will be happy and safe. Well done
Brilliant! Have a GS and he can be a bit off an a**. Tike for a quick visit and was assured that the dog was just nervous and he could take him and even have him ( dog) be ok with his dog.. and he sure did it... Thank you very much and I highly recommend this kennel for big dogs. My dog is on the left...
Very impressed for the care and attention that the owner of the kennel spend with his pets guests. Strongly raccomended, I leaved with James my French bulldog and very, very happy of the professionality and service received. Thanks
We would recommend this kennel for anyone who wants their dog looked after like they are at home. Our frenchie is terrible for kennel guarding and can be snappy with people he doesn’t know, he was with James for 5 nights and when we picked him up he was so happy and kept going to James for cuddles 🥰 We will not put our dog anywhere else. We cannot thank James enough for the care he gave our dog.
I cannot recommend this kennels enough! Third time we've been! When we approached to drop Webster off he ran in with his tail wagging! That to me says it all! And as we all say that dogs are the best judge of character! Today when I went to pick him up , I watched him playing with his tail wagging before I let him see me! Leaving your dog in kennels is hard, but knowing they are happy where they are means you can relax! Last year unfortunately as it was last minute and unavailability i had to take him to another kennel(not gonna name), but I cried all the way home after I picked him up! We now book here before we book our holiday, because I know Webster is HAPPY and cared for! Thank you for looking after him x
My dog has just stayed at Hareshill for 8 nights and he loved every minute. James and team have taken really good care of him, I have received regular updates and I wouldn't hesitate to book my dog or recommend any of my friends to use Hareshill. Thank you, see you in December!
I was so nervous about putting Elsa in boarding kennels as she’s never been away from me before but James put my mind at ease I was sent regular updates about Elsa and you can tell she was well looked after and had a fantastic time. I will definitely be using Hareshill boarding kennels in the future.
In the past couple of weeks I've left my dogs twice with James and I can honestly say I fully recommend his services. I've got 2 covid puppies that weren't socialized, so they are always nervous and anxious around other people and dogs. James has taken them in and treated them as if they were his own, and this has made all the difference. The dogs aren't secluded to a tiny kennel all day long. There is a focal area outside, with loads of space, toys and agility equipment where dogs are free to roam around. They are taken for walks outside and they are genuinely taken care of. James has even taken the time and patience to introduce my dogs to the 'social crew' and this has given them a sense of belonging to the pack they had never experienced before. It's amazing to see how my dogs have joined the gang and happily play and run around without being scared, barky or nervous. Thank you, James! For treating my dogs as if they were your own. It was impressive to realise how excited they were to see you the last time I dropped them off. Seeing them jump up and down to get your attention and cuddles speaks volumes of your talent and professional approach.
We have been using Burnedge kennels for well over 2 years now and we would not board our Sprocker, Finn anywhere else. Once again we collect Finn after a 2 week holiday knowing that he had been left in the excellent care of Lesley, Martin and their team. The standard of the kennels and all the facilities continue to be exceptionally high. The love and care they show for Finn is obvious to see. A team totally devoted in giving the very best they have to offer… Fantastic boarding kennels. On a more personal note. Towards the end of last year Lesley and Martin were on hand to look after Finn at very short notice, and on a number of occasions as we dealt with a great family tragedy. Their generosity and knowing that Finn was well cared for helped us focus all our energies in dealing with our dark days, and for that we are very grateful and thank them from the depths of our hearts. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Burnedge to everyone. Fabulous people.
These Kennels are absolutely amazing. We have been taking Lucy our Pug here for over 3 years we wouldn't even consider taking her anywhere else she loves it. Martin, Lesley and the staff are so dedicated they ensure all the animals are given the best time whilst they are with them. We drop Lucy off and in she trots wagging her tail knowing that treats are in store during her stay. The placed is immaculate due to the hard work the staff put in. I honestly cannot rate Burnedge Kennels (hotel) highly enough. Thank you for looking after Lucy even though she does think she is the queen during her stay.
Great customer service from the moment we enquired about availability and the professionalism to get me booked in and make an appointment to go and visit the cattery was great. The cattery is very well kept and I was more than happy for my cat to stay there for 10 days. Upon return on collecting my cat Mento he looked healthy and well fed. Very reasonably priced and nice easy location to find. Will definitely be booking again in the near future and I highly recommend to everyone. Thanks Si
Larry loves going on his hols & seeing his friends there. The staff are so friendly and remember the little things... like what kind of collar Larry wears! When Larry knows he's arrived at Burnedge he literally drags me inside. I love Larry very much, knowing he is happy while I have a break is very important to me. I would recommend Burnedge to anyone
Superb place !!! After viewing a few different kennels , we were delighted to find Burnedge Kennels , as we immediately knew that we would be happy to leave our little Cockapoo Bella in their safe hands. I’m not sure there are enough words I could say that would truly reflect what a gem of a place this is. The owners Martin and Lesley are lovely , so professional, caring, and truly excel with the lovely kennels they have made. The staff we have met have also been excellent . Our dog can’t wait to get in - usually jumping all over Martin in excitement (sorry Martin!) - and on collection she is happy, clean and her usual crazy self !! We leave her here with COMPLETE ease and confidence, knowing she is well looked after- and it’s a big thing leaving your pet, so for us to say this, is massive! We have no worries whatsoever leaving her. We are very grateful for the love and care you give to Bella, you are a class apart from anywhere else, and we highly recommend you guys . Thank you so much !
I have been taking my cat to Burnedge Kennels & Cattery for many years and on multiple occasions. The staff are always friendly and helpful and my cat is always very well looked after.
We have been using Burnedge Kennels for years and wouldn't use anyone else. Our 3 rescue JRT's love it here, it's like a holiday for them. We now have rescue no.4 all the way from Skiathos. We got him in September last year so he is very timid being a "lockdown" dog. Lesley and Martin have helped enormously by letting him stay for a few hours at a time with his favourite big sister to get used to Kennels.He has one overnighter this week and then the big test when hopefully we can have a full week in the sun. We have total faith in all the staff at Burnedge and can't recommend them highly enough. If your looking for the best place for your spoiled pooch look no further, book now.
I would not leave my dog with anyone else whilst we are away. Simba loves his time with Martin, Lesley and staff. He trots off with Martin to his kennel and doesn’t give us a backwards glance, that tells me he is happy which is what is important. Every part of your dogs routine is discussed so that feeding etc can be replicated whilst you are away. Your dog is given the best possible care, fussing and attention after your own. thank you. Lesley, Nige & Simba
Great place to look after your dog, staff are very friendly and helpful. Our dog was taken good care during her stay & Luna enjoyed her stag Definitely use them again in the future
Buddy loves staying here.Lesley and Martin treat him as one of the family. I wouldn't leave him anywhere else because I know he is well looked after. He loves all the attention he gets from them and the staff. Absolutely brilliant 🐾🐾🐾 …
