Eleanor
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Conscientious and friendly sitter looking to make furry friends around the world
Eleanor was just the best sitter and the loveliest person! A very interesting and intelligent woman, I would have happily chatted with her all night! (I’m quite a shy, solitary person so that says a lot about her warmth) It was all very last minute as Peggy was due to go and stay with a friend but she had an accident and had to have an operation so I thought it was better she stayed at home. Eleanor looked after her beautifully, followed all instructions diligently including giving medication. Peggy was very taken with her, Fiesta too who apparently brought her a delightful present of a mouse! (A good sign whether you like it or not!) Eleanor is the perfect balance of sensible, practical, caring and affectionate with the animals. She even comforted them both during a storm. The house was spotless and all the laundry done. I really couldn’t have asked for anything more, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her wholeheartedly. Eleanor I so enjoyed meeting you and I hope you’ll come again. Thank you from all of us x
Kimberley
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Experienced housesitters who get to combine their love for pets and travel!
We really feel like we landed on our feet having Kimberley and Dean look after our ‘little boy’ Huw. We were newbies to having a house/pet sitter, but Kimberley really held our hand taking the initiative to set up an early meeting and responding quickly to messages. Meeting early really set our minds to rest. At handover we agreed every other day updates on progress which included a photo and a couple of sentences and this really helped us to feel much more comfortable that Huw was being well looked after. It was clear throughout that Kimberley and Dean had considered our profile details, taking Huw to some of his favourite places and also on some new adventures too … including introducing him to a Hollywood star! Their experience with animals, but especially dogs, shows and this helped hugely in understanding Huw’s personality leading to him having a great time - when they left it was clear that he was upset that his new friends were heading off. Kimberley and Dean took great care of our house which was left immaculately clean. Thank you both so much for befriending and looking after Huw.
Andrew
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Couple with many years of dog/house-sitting experience, especially in Suffolk.
Andrew and Jennifer are delightful and love our home and our dogs (very nearly) as much as we do! I would have no hesitation in recommending them, except for the fact that, like all best kept secrets, I don't want to share them too widely!!
Ros
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Retired Norfolk Couple keen to share their retirement with your treasured pet.
Take my word for it ... Ros and Nick are "SAINTS"! If I could leave them 100 stars I would! They are the most lovely people you could possibly imagine and have sat for me on numerous occasions now. They are utterly trust worthy, and go way above and beyond, and are not only the best house sitters ever, but they cope with everything and anything. Thank you R & N from the bottom of my heart for being truly utterly fabulously amazing.
Shay
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Experienced, animal loving couple looking for house sits in Europe and UK
Wow, what can one say, Shay and Rick were brilliant. We arrived home to very happy dogs, horses and chickens, the garden had been watered and the house immaculate, nothing was too much trouble, I couldn't ask for more. A huge thank you from us all and I hope we might be able to leave the troops in your capable hands if we decide to go away again!
Isabelle
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Responsible, trustworthy, caring education professional. Experienced pet sitter.
Isabell took wonderful care of Venus. She was quite attentive, and won Venus over quite quickly which is always a good sign. We got updates almost daily show a very happy and content kitty. Isabelle was easy to connect with, happily joining an initial video chat, and very responsive with texts. We felt confident in her ability to care for Venus and apartment- regardless of what happened. We would gladly welcome her back again.
Joan
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Friendly and caring couple.
Joan was very sweet and caring and communication with her was easy throughout. We spoke over FaceTime to introduce ourselves and kept in touch leading up to and during the sit. Joan came alone in this instance but was perfectly capable of looking after the home and each of our animals. Joan is a talented painter and left us a beautiful hand painted card which was a lovely thought. All of our animals were happy upon our return which is all we can ask for.
Mandy
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Animal loving, responsible zeewoi home owner couple, available for house & pet s
Mandy Peter and summer took fantastic care of our pets. Arrangements and communication were straightforward, and all went to plan. They arrived as promised in the morning despite an early start with absolutely no fuss. We knew straight away that Betty would get plenty of attention, especially from summer. The animals were obviously well cared for, and Betty enjoyed her trips out. Our home was also left clean and tidy. I’d have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mandy Peter and summer.
james
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
Kiwi couple looking to explore Europe whilst working remotely
We were so pleased we chose James & India for our first housesit. They are lovely people who are genuine animal lovers and we felt totally comfortable leaving our 2 nervous dogs with them. We received plenty of updates during our holiday and we could see the dogs were happy and being well looked after. We found James & India really easy going and super enthusiastic, it felt like we'd known them for years! We wouldn't hesitate to have them back.
Audrey
Providing Pet Sitting in the Smallburgh, United Kingdom
I am Audrey
Recently had the delightful Audrey complete a 2.5 week housesit in our home to keep our two cats company. Audrey kept us updated throughout her visit with regular e-mails. Our furry friends where happy and relaxed on our return and our home was immaculate. Our neighbours thought her wonderful. The added surprise of supper left in the fridge was a real bonus after our long journey home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Audrey and we would definitely love to have her sit for us again if our travel plans aligned. Thank you Audrey.
Reviews from Cat Owners
sandi
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.
Claudia
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
Paige
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
Erin
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!
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!
kevin
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!
Paola
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Ned
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
Francine
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.

Maccy G Pets - Dog Walking & Pet Care
Recent Reviews:
Tracy and her husband took care of my cat for 5 days, and he absolutely loved them! He normally doesn’t like strangers, but he seemed to warm up to Tracy from the first day, and he was very happy to see her every day! It definitely allowed me to relax knowing he was being taken care with such great care!
Tracy looked after my cat and rabbits while we were away for 10 days. It was not ideal timing because we had builders there while we were away and my cat is very wary of strangers at the best of times. Although Tracy didn’t see my cat every day she reassured me that he had been coming in for food every night. She also did a brilliant temporary repair job for me when one of my rabbit homes developed a hole in the bottom of it. She kept in regular contact and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
We have two female cats with very different personalities and like any pet owner, we are anxious that they are fed, watered and cared for while we are away. This was the first time that we have used Maccy G Pets service and we can report that we are very happy with the service. Tracy visited us to meet our cats before we travelled which was a nice touch. Tracy kept us updated with daily videos of her interactions with the cats and when we returned all was well with them and our home. Thank you for the care. We would happily recommend their service.
We could not be happier with the service provided at such short notice. Our two elderly cats absolutely love Tracy. Sadie, our eldest at 18 with failing kidneys is a hard nut to crack and very hard to please but the daily photos showed us that she was very happy in Tracy's company, along with Jinx, who has suffered with separation anxiety previously. She took the time to come and visit and introduce herself to the cats prior to starting to care for them. We have booked again as they have been so well looked after.
Having Tracy to look after our Maine Coon kittens for a week meant that we could go on holiday without worrying about them. We had daily video updates to show all the strokes and attention they were getting! And they were bright eyed and bushy tailed happy kitties when we got home :) We would recommend Maccy G Pets without hesitation!
It was the first time we used Maccy G and they were fantastic We went away for a week and Diane was absolutely wonderful. Our cat Archie is very shy but Diane was so patient and managed to help him overcome his shyness and I could see from the photos she sent that he looked so happy and content. It took away all our worries about leaving him. They are wonderful and we will always ask them to look after Archie when we go away. We really would recommend them. 😀
Tracy is a very experienced and trustworthy person who has a real gift/talent in looking after pets. Everything from pre-visit to regular updates whilst on holiday was brilliant. The pets were extremely well cared for and we didn’t have to worry at all whilst away. We would highly recommend this pet sitting service.
We booked Tracey to come twice a day for 5 days, to feed our 2 cats, while we were away. She came to visit before hand and meet them, the paperwork was quick and easy to complete and as she'd already looked after other family member's pets, we didn't have any concerns about the care she'd provide. She wanted to keep their routines as similar to normal as possible and was happy to spend time with them on her visits, brush them, play with them etc. Turns out, as our cats are total wimps, they didn't want to spend much time getting to know her, but Tracey made sure we knew they were safe by contacting us with photos or video of them when she popped in. Although this is her business and it would potentially reduce her profit, Tracey offered to cut back from two to one visit per day, due the cats having access to inside and outside space and eating dried food. We did take her up on this and saved ourselves a few pounds - thanks Tracey. Our cats, Percy and Archie, would not have coped well in a cattery, so this was a great option. Although they were probably a little miffed with us going away, they were both fed and watered and happy to see us in our return. Photo of Archie who was pretty illusive while we were away.
Had a fabulous experience with Tracy looking after my two turtles. You can tell she cares greatly about keeping animals safe, happy and healthy and wants to learn about their personalities. I felt super comfortable leaving my turtles in her care, she sent me daily updates with photos which really put my mind at ease while I was away! 💚 Cheap and friendly service that I will be using again!
We left my 3 individual cats in Tracy’s care for a week whilst on holiday. They are all happy and healthy. We were sent videos each day that gives you great confidence in this business. David Norwich

Recent Reviews:
Im new to Norwich and We Love Pets were recommended to me by a colleague, and now I recommend them to everyone! I was initially sceptical about using a company because I thought they’d be too expensive and I had an individual dog walker before. But their prices are really reasonable, and it means there’s never any last minute cancellations because of holidays or sickness. Steve and Jake are really reliable, flexible, kind and professional. I get regular updates and pictures from their walks, and my dog was so tired when I got home from work the other day he took himself to bed 3 hours early! I can’t recommend them enough.
I recently used Steve and his team for drop-in calls during the working day for our English Bulldog. Having never used a similar service before I can't thank them enough for their professionalism and care given. They kept me in touch regularly and Calli thoroughly enjoyed all the fuss and attention. I will certainly be using their services again soon.
We have had an amazing experience today, which is all down to Steve from We Love Pets Norwich! We needed a dog sitter whilst we attended my son’s graduation at UEA. Our plans changed more than once but Steve was flexible and accommodating. We met Lyn and Keith today, and our Standard Poodle Phoebe had the time of her life at their lovely home for the afternoon! They also helped us to get to the ceremony on time and even gave us a cup of tea at the end of the day! I would not hesitate to recommend these wonderful people with regard to looking after dogs!
Steve is brilliant with our menagerie - dog, cat and chickens! Always sends pictures and a message when he visits, which is very reassuring, and is very punctual.
I cannot recommend We Love Pets Norwich enough! I contacted them at very short notice after being let down with my previous arrangements for my dog Sophie, and they responded immediately, came to meet Sophie, and established exactly what I required. Steve set up a WhatsApp group with the lovely young lady Sydney who would be walking Sophie so that I was in contact at all times, and Sydney kept me updated with plenty of photos and updates whilst I was away. Sophie was relaxed and happy when I returned, in fact I think she was disappointed I wasn't Sydney! Great service, great choice of services, and fabulous team! Thank you!!
Can’t thank Steve enough for taking great care of our German Shepherd. It was a one off as we don’t live locally, and it enabled us to attend a funeral. Great communication prior to the day, a quick meet and greet to fit our schedule, and then activities and care appropriate for the length of time he had her and temperature of the day. Well informed throughout by pictures. Would recommend. Thank you
Steve took my lab Archie out for a walk every day for two weeks He played ball with him and sent me plenty of photos If Archie could talk I’m sure he would say that he had the best time
We used this home boarding service for the first time earlier this month when we attended a family wedding without our ageing two Jack Russells (both 14) In the end they had such a great time and were so well treated that they almost didn't want to come home. The couple with whom they lodged are in high demand so we're already planning our next break for 2024. Thanks to everyone involved.
Steve was absolutely brilliant and really helped me out of a different time. I'm soo appreciative of all the time, help and care I received. Couldn't praise: We Love Pets, any higher. Definitely would recommend and I will definitely be using them again, if my dog needs looking after when I'm away. Thanks again Steve, All the best Rob
Darcie is so well cared for with Steve and Anita.. have already done two years trips for vaccinations etc groomers and home visits and park walks with their own dogs. Darcie is getting lots of attention and socialisation which is great especially as being with me 24/7 during the recent lockdown and at home. I am returning to work albeit part time and was anxious about leaving her. Having lost my previous support I found We Love Pets and Darcie is happy so I am happy...very reliable and will always try to fit me in if an emergency. I get lots of pictures and videos too when she with them which is such a bonus as I know she is in safe hands. Can't praise them enough.

Barking Mad Norwich
Recent Reviews:
Not happy with the customer service we received during the covid outbreak I’m afraid. Our deposit was kept despite the circumstances which obviously was totally out of our control. As a self employed person I understand the financial implications for a business but passing the bill onto customers who are already losing out is just bad taste. Also, the dogs were scheduled to go to a couple who they had never met before (this was our second time using barking mad) despite being told during the registration meeting that they would go to the same people each time. A little disappointing as very pricey too.
I have always been really pleased with the service that I have got with Barking Mad our dog is always well cared for, we have never been let down by them I would recommend them to anyone, I could not put my boys in a kennel so it is perfect they get a holiday and we do not have to worry. When I get my older boys stuff ready to go he is at the window waiting then when they arrive he lets us know and can't get to the car fast enough. Thank you Barking Mad for making it easy for us. Jacqui & Steve Kirby
Our boy has been twice now and seemed like he had a great time, in fact he wanted to get back in the car for more. He clearly has taken to his host Dave and Caroline, so will definitely be sending him again very soon.
Fantastic company with quality service and extremely trustworthy. Would recommend to anyone looking for a alternative to traditional kennels or sitters. Thankyou!

I used Faye as a last minute booking to take my dog out as I could not. Faye was prompt, took time to chat with me about Peanuts needs. Assured me of her experience in dealing with dogs of his size but also his lunging towards other dogs. I think she sensed my worry and took great pains to reassure me.She also gave me great feedback on the walk. She is extremely polite, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend!!!
We’ve used for Faye for nearly a year now and can’t fault her at all, she’s very professional and our boys love their afternoon walks with her 😊 …
