Reliable, calm, caring, non-smoking, retired couple with a great love of dogs.
Shannon, Colin and Bella came for a 2nd sit for our boys and it's lovely to have them. Once again, we came home to very happy and chilled dogs, a lovely tidy house and a delicious home made curry from Colin. We love having them as feel totally relaxed being away, knowing Peanut and Merlin are having their own lovely holiday with days out, lots of cuddles and play time with Bella. Look forward to having them visit again soon.

Sarah and Rob, friendly, reliable, house / petsitters
Sara and Robert were perfect guests. Pets looks after extremely well with occasional photos to keep us updated. The house was immaculate with a lovely card and gift on our return. Welcome back any time they are in the area. A+

Responsible, reliable, and professional female who loves animals and travel!
Our cats probably never had a better slave on hand. Dianna kept in touch daily, with photos proving that very clearly. So we had peace of mind throughout our vacation and came back to a clean apartment and happy cats. I’d invite Dianna back anytime!

Mature, tidy and reliable couple
Zsuzsa and Clive are still dream housesitters! Everything you could ask for...easy communication, spotless house with carrot cake and washed sheets, videos of cuddles with our animals and even some cool paddle boarding with the dog! Brilliant!

Professional couple in our 50’s, who can’t wait to meet your adorable pets.
We arranged our second sit with Michelle and Charlie and as before, they didn’t disappoint. Great comms before the sit, and we retuned to an immaculately clean and tidy house as well as a very contented kitty. We can’t speak highly enough of Michelle and Charlie, hopefully we can align the stars for another sit next year. Thanks so much again to you both.

Qualified vet nurse, with farming background looking UK and international sits.
Jill has house and pet sat for me again this year. I felt comfortable having her look after my animals especially knowing that she had experience looking after sick animals. She sent me regular pics and videos and I felt happy and confident that they were looked after. Thank you so much.

This was always going to be a difficult sit looking after 2 very mischievous 5 month old kittens but we had a really good video call with Viv so we were confident that everything would be fine. Then on the day that Viv & Graham arrived one of the kittens got sick and had to go into hospital for 2 nights meaning we had to cancel our departure. Viv & Graham very totally calm about this and just checked themselves into an Airbnb for a couple of nights. They were due to come back to our house after that as we were leaving early in the morning on newly booked flights and then our water main exploded leaving us with no water. Once again this was no problem to Viv & Graham and they found themselves somewhere to stay for another night. We finally got away 4 days late and from that moment on everything was plain sailing. Viv sent us photos and videos of the kittens every day, as we had requested. Graham fixed a big sunshade that had fallen down and the cats got lots of love and attention. We came back to happy, healthy cats, a spotlessly clean house and a delicious traybake. We would happily have Viv & Graham back to sit for us again and highly recommend them to anyone else.

Trevor and Meena are delightful sitters and were particularly amenable when we had to make a change to the dates of their visit. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend them to others

Hello there, I have been around animals all my life. I have a gift with animals,
Kerry, as always, was amazing 🤩. Our pups love having him to stay and look after them. We love getting the updates whilst we are away, photos and videos. We cannot fault the care and attention he gives them, as well as how well he looks after our home. We are looking forward to seeing him again very soon 😊

This was Olive’s second sit with Claire and Mike and although we weren’t here for the reunion, I’m certain she was very happy to see them again! They took great care of our house and garden and we knew from experience that Olive was in good hands. While we were away, they sent a picture of Olive out for lunch with them at the pub - after a long weekend walk. A moment when she was clearly living her best life with Claire and Mike! :)
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!

Just finished 5 weeks puppy training course for our 20 week old C.Spaniel. Really great tips on basics and training on heel work and recall. Ryan very mindful of nervous puppies so was an excellent class to take our timid pup. He's now confident and doing really good me. Highly recommend to any new pup owner. 🐶👍 …
I booked my 1 year old Spaniel in for one to one street obedience training due to him constantly pulling on the lead and being all over the place, within 45 minutes of the training Ryan managed to get my dog walking 100x better. Since the training my dog hardly ever pulls on the lead and he walks by my side pretty much at all times. It feels like Ryan has given us a completely different dog. Ryan is calm, patient and knows what he’s talking about, all the advice he gave me regarding walking my dog and my dogs diet has been very beneficial. I can’t recommend him enough.
Took part in Ry's puppy class course. Was a great informative course that was reasonably priced. The knowledge that Ryan shared with us was great and we would recommend anyone with a new puppy taking part in these course here.
Just completed the five week puppy training course with our 12 month old miniature bull terrier. Ry and Alanna have both been incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and even though our dog is still fairly unruly, we can see progress has been made and we have more confidence in what we're doing with her. As we'd already had sessions with two other trainers on the island, we were a bit wary, but have been very impressed with Ry's professionalism and structured training. Thanks a lot!
We have just finished our second session with Ryan, at our home. Ryan's natural affinity with dogs shines through as he shares his huge knowledge, experience and insight into what makes both dogs and humans tick! We have shared our home with dogs for 4O years but our sessions with Ryan have been absolutely invaluable in helping us to develop a trusting and companionable relationship with our new, busy puppy. Looking forward to Puppy Chaos tonight and ongoing training with Ryan and the Team. Thank you. Maggie and Nigel
An awesome business. We’ve been using Ry’s services for the past 6 months for our dog Leia, especially the day care. We use it to get a bit of freedom and as a treat for our dog as she loves it there. We also love the flexibility of the services and how friendly everyone is. Highly recommend!
Being a "lockdown" puppy training and socialising was difficult so behaviour problems were inevitable. Finding Ry's has been a wonder - with their help/advice and facilities we are beginning to see changes in Leia's social behaviour and we look forward to many more happy sessions with Ry and his team of wonderful helpers. Thank you
Everytime I drop my dog off at Ry's in the morning for daycare, she can't wait to go in! She has such a lovely time here, and comes back so happy and puffed-out from all the playing and fun she's clearly had! I also can't fault the staff, so friendly and helpful all the time. It's a huge comfort knowing I can drop her here on my days on the island!
I have used Ryan numerous times for both 1 to 1 training and doggy day care with my German Shepherd Dog Baz. He is patient, caring and great with the dogs in his care. He is extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviour and training and will also give the owners the training they need to get the best from their dogs. He is my go to dog trainer / day care provider.
Highly recommend Ry's dog training he has brought our Cyprus rescue dog on leaps and bounds, from a very frightend little boy into a very confident boy whilst out walking and to heel no longer worried about outside noises, he is now a better mannered young man in the home. Dude always looks out for him on his weekly visits and can't wait to get going. Thank you Ryan here's to the next 9 months. X
Absolutely brilliant service, couldn’t be more impressed. Benji came back to us happy, having clearly had a fantastic holiday. Suzi kept me well informed of his stay with videos and photos. We would highly recommend.
If there were more than 5 stars to add, Suzi would get them all. Our 2yr old Cavapoo has been going to Suzi since he was 4 months old both for daycare as well as boarding. He absolutely loves her and has grown into a well balanced happy dog with her high level of knowledge with individual dog behaviour or fears. Teddy has developed confidence as well as respect for other dogs during his stays. Suzi ensures her dogs are safe, active and supervised. Teddy benefits not only from supervised care but games, training and walks too. I cannot praise her enough. When we go away and unable to take Teddy, we are completely reassured and at ease knowing Teddy is enjoying his holiday too.
I cannot speak highly enough of Just-Like-Home! My 7 month-old Cavapoo stayed for two weeks this summer and it is safe to say that he enjoyed his holiday just as much as I did mine! He spent two weeks making friends of all sizes, digging in the digging pit, swimming in the pool, going on long nature walks and taking lots of naps in between! As it was our first time apart, I especially appreciated all of the sweet photos and videos I was sent of him doing all of the above. Just-Like-Home is truly a 5-star resort for dogs! We have our next holiday dates booked in already--thank you so much, Suzi!
Sidney has been to stay with Suzi a few times now, he jumps out of car and runs to gate as he can’t wait to go there. Suzi is very friendly, approachable, caring and accommodating and I highly recommend her. Sidney always is well looked after and I’m updated on his time there
An amazing place that really looks after your fur baby! My dog has loved his walks, communication is always excellent and the service is second to none
I can highly recommend Suzi and Just-Like-Home dog boarding. Our 2 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, stayed for the first time last week and if they could talk, I am sure they would tell me they had a brilliant time. We met with Suzi for first introductions ahead of our stay and saw her wonderful set up, including a sensory garden and play area for the dogs. Toby and Chloe even went for a taster day before their stay, at no extra charge. While we were away Suzi sent us messages and photos to let us know how happy and settled they were. They are now looking forward to their next visit in the summer, while we are totally reassured that they are being very well cared for 😊🐶
Absolutely brilliant daycare and boarding the best in the area. My cockerpoo has been to a few but have never settled overnight with anyone. Suzi is brilliant and is like a dog whisperer she is fantastic with our cockerpoo and has helped us with some of her anxiety issues. She has stayed with Suzi when we go away and the first time we couldn't believe the dog we came back to she was brilliant. Couldn't recommend Suzi doggy daycare and boarding enough. Nothing is ever too much trouble.
I am so glad I found “Just-Like-Home” as Suzi offers a truly amazing atmosphere for dogs. When I first brought Poppy to meet Suzi, my first impression was a place of calm but also a fun and stimulating environment for dogs. It's so comforting to know that when I'm on holiday, I know that Poppy is being very well looked after. Poppy recently had a 2 night stay and during all this very hot weather, Suzi purchased an air con unit to keep all the dogs cool!! Another lovely touch is that Suzi also sends photos and video clips which is great. Looking forward to Poppy’s 10 night stay in August. I can highly recommend “Just-Like-Home”, you won't be disappointed! 😀
Suzi looked after our 2 dogs for 12 nights when we went on holiday. She was fantastic! We received daily updates on them both as well as videos of them playing in her garden, which was much appreciated. The dogs really did make themselves at home, and I felt reassured leaving them with her. We will definitely use Just Like Home again when we next go away. :)
Our 14year old fur baby stayed with Suzi recently for 2 weeks, she had never stayed with anyone but family before and we were concerned about how she would be. Suzi and her team were absolutely amazing, Sasha had a fabulous time and we were sent regular pictures and videos of the fun she was having. We cannot recommend Just Like Home enough, your fur baby will have a great time with Suzi.
