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.

*Experienced Housesitters* Excellent References + Reviews. Professional Married
Melissa and Shane were the perfect cat and house sitters. Our furry Maine Coone, Flint was really well looked after whilst we were away. I received lots of updates and photos of him chilling with them. The house was left clean and tidy. They even picked some raspberries from the garden and froze them for me! I would not hesitate to recommend them to others and hope that they would like to sit for us again.

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

Offer: Pet cuddles. Need: Pets! Responsible, caring and pet-loving couple.
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.

Friendly, responsible couple who love animals and travel
Stephen and Sarah were absolutely fantastic! They sat for us for 5 weeks and looked after Maple brilliantly. Communication was fantastic with updates throughout the week with photos! The house was immaculate upon return and they even left us dinner for that evening so save us going shopping after travelling and some treats too! The love and care they showed Maple was the best and Maple was super happy and settled with them both. Thank you for everything, we would have you back in a heartbeat xxx

A Reliable, Trustworthy couple who have been awarded a Super Sitter Award by zee
Ann and Martin were super friendly, reliable and all round great house sitters! They took great care of all the animals and were obliging in throwing Pip's ball for her - a lot! Communication was great and it was really helpful to have the opportunity for a visit before we left to meet the pets and look round. The house was beautiful and clean when we got home which was lovely. We would love to have them back if they are ever travelling nearby again on their adventures! Definitely recommend them! Thanks Ann and Martin!

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!
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!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
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!
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
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 .
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!
This place puts you on an automatic minimum £30 a month subscription from your first visit, which has a 2 month cancellation period meaning that you are forced to pay at least an extra £60 even if decided not to come back. This a complete scam
Booked a Splash Park Sunday session a few weeks in advance, but didn’t receive confirmation despite payment being taken. Tried to email and call but no answer. Turned up and no staff there, park left open with filthy water in the pool (whole reason why we went was to encourage puppy to swim but didn’t want him entering foul water). There was no sign saying the business park would be locked and we got trapped inside for 30 mins. Just as I was ringing the police (because of course no answer from Dogs Aloud), someone else came in so we could escape. Nightmare experience.
Our rescue puppy started going here a few weeks ago. We were told one his first visit that he was “Too confident”, which should be a good thing considering he is a 4 month old rescue!! We continued to take him as we wanted him to be socialised, however on his second visit we were told he has been moved to the large dog room at 4 months old because he was too much for the medium size dogs! Although we have been told time and time again he is now with the large dogs, we haven’t seen 1 picture of him at dogs aloud since his first visit. We have no idea where he is, what he is up too as we get no feedback and have had no pictures of him. He returned again, and this time we have been told his is very close to be added to the “red list” (He has been for 3 half days). Each time we dropped him off and picked him up, we were met with little to no feedback on his day, and if we were given feedback it was always negative. He is a 4 month old puppy, if a facility as large as this is unable to handle him, I’m not sure he is the issue. Wouldn’t recommend!
Left my dog there for a trial day but when I picked him up I left feeling very worried about what had happened during the day. I was told he had been hard to handle and while they didn't want to put him on the red list I got the impression that was what they'd say if I took him again. My dog is a lab puppy only 8 months old, and was very hyper when I picked him up. I got no pics or written report. Honestly wouldn't take him back there ever again. I cancelled our account that night.
I missed my dogs grooming appointment as I forgot which is my fault. They charged me the full groom which is in their terms and I can't argue with. However, there were no appointment reminders and they didn't make any attempt to call me when I didn't show on time as I still could've made the appointment as I live close by. Even a follow-up call to say that I have missed my appointment offering times to rebook would've been better. After billing me for the full appointment I emailed politely asking if I could rebook at a discounted rate given I had paid full price for a groom & called (several times) and could not get through. I had no response. I would've even rebooked at full price if I had some degree of response! Generally poor customer service to a repeat customer with a young dog which would've given them years of grooming bookings. Now I will take my business elsewhere.
My dog loves it here and I love that. The staff are superb, they are extremely knowledgeable on the welfare of the dogs and I know he is in safe hands. There are updates during the day, with pictures of him having a great time, which is brilliantto see. I honestly would not trust any other doggy daycare like I do these guys to look after my dog!
Booked into the outdoor fields last night, as looed very good on pictures and we needed some one to one training with our pup, £20 seemed ok looking on the site, we arrived and almost walked away instantly, the water yes for dogs. Did look ok we chucked him in with his ball and witjimg 30 seconds the water was bright green, and the poor lad absolutely stunk of rotten water, we then had a look at the agility parts, and well, some decking built into boxes and a walk way of tyre's wasnt really what we exoected, the sand pit was absolutely vile also, then to top it of there's severel dogs poos lying around! £20 is an absolute rip-off, only go if you're digs not nervous next to a very busy main road to! WILL NOT be going again
Facilities and staff are absolutely amazing. My 1 year dog is very wary of people and won't approach them, but he adores the staff here. He loves going twice a week, gets so excited as we pull up and barks if they don't take him in quick enough. Can't thanks the staff enough for the care they provide. His confidence and social skills around other dogs has really come on since going to Dogs Aloud.
My dog loves coming to Dogs Aloud. She always comes home absolutely exhausted which is a bonus! She started going for day care from about 4 months which really helped her develop social skills. The puppy social classes are also great and introduced her to loads of new situations and people. The staff are really knowledgeable and having a shop/groomers on site too is really useful!
Dogs Aloud is AMAZING! I can’t recommend them enough! Our puppy Ellie visits once or twice a week for half a day and she comes home exhausted and content. So much so she spends the rest of the night asleep! She drags us straight in the door when we arrive and when she comes out, she wants to go back in. All the staff are so friendly, caring and helpful and you can tell then genuinely love the dogs. Dave and Allan are happy to answer any questions and are always welcoming. We were struggling to get Ellie socialised enough due to the weather and her only being on short walks, and Dogs Aloud has made a big difference to her. They have a wide variety of activities to keep the dogs entertained. I would highly recommend using Dogs Aloud to everyone!
