Shannon
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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+
Valerie
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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
Michelle
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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.
Jill
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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.

Kerry
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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 😊
Sandra
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
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!!
Selim
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Time for a relaxing break away from home?
Selim has been a regular house sitter for us and we are always thrilled when he can sit for us. The animals love him and we know we are leaving them and the house in safe hands. Highly recommend and wish he could sit for us every time!
James
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Nomadic spirits with a love of all animals, especially cats and dogs.
It was a pleasure to have James and Helene stay in our home with Jupiter and Everest. James arrived on time for our departure and was a lovely man to meet. Very kind and friendly which put us instantly at ease. They left the house very clean and tidy which was hugely appreciated. The dogs were both well cared for and we had some pup updates whilst we were away. We would gladly have them stay again.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Janie
Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
Ann
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Emelia
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
LEANNE
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Stacey
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!

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!
Inma
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Will
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.
Evelyn & Jeff
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.

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!

I would suggest people avoid at all costs. The owner "looks after" your pets/family by leaving them alone to bark all day and or night long. Last time it was for over 4 hours. Constant barking. Clearly an animal in need. The RSPCA have been notified for neglect. I hope the full weight of the law is exacted. Edit: Mavis, I will not contact you privately. This has been going on for years. I moved to Tarrant Monkton in 2001. The dogs you "look after" were, and are frequently left outside in all weather whilst you used to go out to the pub, (before you fell out with the Landlady) or out in general. Leaving them to bark at all hours until you return to them. I would be livid if you treated my dog this way. You are lucky so many people have given you leeway this long for living in the village. Being woken up at all hours, the peace of the village broke consistently for no reason other than your lack of commitment to those pets. My review is factual and others will confirm this. If you don't want bad reviews, don't act in a bad manner. ****AVOID**** Second Edit: Geraldine, perhaps you should come down from your home two villages away sometime and experience it first hand. If you doubt myself, please feel free to knock on doors in Tarrant Launceston and or Tarrant Monkton to ask for others experiences. Experiences not opinions. Unfortunately your ignorance is not an excuse. It is common knowledge that you and others including Mavis don't support the local pub, or charity events. Also that you and Mavis host nights involving the early hours and alcohol. . The drama surrounding a select few in the Tarrants could pose a threat to most "reality" TV programmes. As I have stated previously, bad reviews come from bad experiences. Not fiction. This concludes my review permanently and any further reviews you, or Mavis' other friends post. Please note, your fake review(s) have been reported as misleading. Good day. ****AVOID****
What a shame this person has chosen to express his disgruntlement in such a personal, vindictive and misguided way. Mavis’s loyal clients know these claims to be untrue - her concern for the animals in her care is beyond question.
Mavis at Homestead Per Care has been lovingly looking after my “forever friends” for the past 15 years and I trust her explicitly. Be it for the odd day care whilst I’m working to weeks of boarding whilst I’m away, I’m absolutely confident that my dogs are being lovingly looked after. I could not recommend Mavis enough, both of my spaniels have adored her and can not wait to return!
Mavis has looked after our dogs for nearly 20 years and we are very grateful for the care she gives them.
Mavis is great with our two dogs .thay really enjoy going to homestead
Mavis has been expertly looking after my animals - dogs at Homestead and ducks at my home - for many years. I wouldn’t go to anyone else!

Vicky has looked after our dogs many times over the years including a week whilst we have been on holiday. The dogs are always really well looked after and get plenty of walks. They are part of the family, a home from home, and love staying. Vicky is always really helpful and responds to messages quickly. Love getting the updates and photos of how they are getting on! Excellent service and high recommended!
Vicky has been walking our Labrador once a week for quite some time and often has her overnight when we can't take her away with us. Cookie absolutely adores Vicky and loves to go off walking with her doggy friends. She is so reliable, friendly and punctual and I know she loves our hairy hound as much as we do. Really can't fault the service she offers. Thank you Vicky!
Vicky is wonderful - totally reliable and immensely patient. She gets to know our dogs really well and understands their behaviours. She gives them great walks and if boarding or day care, the dogs are treated as part of the family. ‘My boy’ adores her and goes off very excited every time she collects him and when he comes home, he has so much to say and is a very happy chap! I trust her implicitly with my very precious four - legged friend and know that he is always totally safe with her and having fun.
Vicky has walked our whippet for many years now. It is so reassuring knowing that he will be well looked after and worn out after a good walk! Vicky offers boarding which we have used too. Vicky updates us with pictures of him sprawled in the sunshine at her home, thoroughly enjoying his holiday!
Vicky Carney offers nothing but a 5 star service for your dogs. She is professional, reliable and has a great connection to animals giving your dog so much love, care and attention. She has looked after my dog for years and Honey is devoted to her as are all the other dogs that have been with her for years. I cannot recommend her highly enough. You know your dog is in the safest hands and will receive so much love.
Vicky has walked our Labrador for many years now, she is so flexible and friendly and Belle is always excited to go out with her and the other dogs. Never used the boarding as never needed to but would be very happy to. Would highly recommend!
Vicky has walked our dog Betsy since she was only a few months old. She's always been incredibly professional, reliable and taken great care of her. I couldn't recommend Happy Paws highly enough.
Our dog loves going to Vickys for day care and boards when we go on hoilday. Vicky is very flexible and will always help out at short notice if she can...happy dog equals happy owners.
I have just called to see if there was a space for my 14month old dog for August to board. Before I even had chance to say breed I was informed she won't take rescue dogs. I thought people were bieng moved to rescue and not buy. Very disappointed

Wellington my Labrador and I recently moved to England and was so grateful to find someone who loves my dog as much as I do. Karen is professional, compassionate and is absolutely amazing with dogs. When Wellington knows he is going to stay with Karen, he gets so excited in the car he is beside himself with joy! When he comes home from his day he is happy, tired and content. Also a huge thank you to Wallace for opening up his toy box for Welly to have fun in!
Simply the best pet care available!! Wouldn't put our Ben anywhere else! He is loved, cared for, safe and happy and always runs to see Karen when we arrive! Karen puts pets first and cares for them like her own. We go on holiday knowing that we can really relax as Ben is 100% safe and happy. Karen is his other mum and he loves her ❤
Karen s Petcare is first class . Excellent professional service combined with the individual needs of each dog are fully met . Karen s good humour and cheerful personality shines through . Her love for her 4-legged visitors is indisputable . Our Border Collie is now fourteen and half years old and she has been happily staying with Karen for years..... she always wags her tail as she is welcomed in .. Happy days at Karen s Petcare .
You always worry when your fur baby…. meets someone new and goes to Doggy day care for that very first time ……… there is no doubt in my mind that Hudson absolutely loves going to “ Auntie Karens” . He can’t get down the drive fast enough. Karen is fantastic and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for that special person to look after your pet. Oh, Wallace is gorgeous as well….. Huddy bear loves playing with him 🐶🐶
Dudley, my working cocker spaniel absolutely loves Karen! He is now 8 years old and since he was a young puppy Karen has been walking him whilst I’m at work. She also has him to board at her house if we go on holiday. Karen is great with him, she’s friendly, reliable and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
Home from home for my cocker spaniel. She darts in there like she's off to meet her best friends. It's lovely. Karen is a wonderful person and is great with the dogs. Couldn't ask for more and would definitely recommend.
We highly recommend Karen’s Pet Care, Libby has been staying with Karen since she was two (fifteen now) it is like her second home, she loves Karen and is always happy to go. Karen provides a personal and friendly service and loves her ‘extended family’. Thank you Carole and Alan
we’re fortunate to have decades of friendship with Karen and her husband Mark. They are animal lovers through and through and when the petcare service was set up, I knew it would be brilliant. And it is. I’ve been there, met loads of the lovely canine ‘guests’ who are all genuinely treated as part of the family at all times. It’s a happy place - you just know that when you have to clutch your wine glass at all times to keep the contents safe from the wagging tails!
You know your dog loves going to Karen's when he runs down the drive and runs straight in and then puts the anchors down when it's time to go home. If Karen picks him up, Chester runs and jumps straight into the back of the van. That says everything you need to know. We find Karen really reliable, friendly and professional.
Karen was incredible :) My cat Charlie was very well cared for and I could tell from our first meeting that Karen was a pet lover. Highly recommend her services
