UK Professional Couple Wishing To See More Of The World!
Fabulous, Faultless Five Star sitters! We were treated to daily photos, videos and anecdotes about our much loved pet, which our whole family could access, and we had absolute confidence that our dog was being loved and cared for as always. It was as if a family member was at home. Local friends saw them out on walks and our dog always looked happy, under control and well cared for. We didn’t meet this lovely couple unfortunately, but they were totally reliable and communicated efficiently to advise of their arrival and departure times, they are super organised and didn’t ask any unnecessary questions. The house was spotless on our return despite the fact our dog moults at this time of the year, all areas were thoroughly clean and tidy, and we had a helpful handover note. We couldn’t have asked for more, and don’t hesitate to recommend Claire & Mike!

Trustworthy and reliable couple
Steven and Ariel were amazing house sitters. They came to meet my husband beforehand to introduce themselves, which I thought was nice and reassuring. They sent us frequent updates and photos of our lovely Fluffy. The kids and i enjoyed seeing what she was up to… she looked very happy with Steven and Ariel in the photos and videos and I could see they were treating her very well. Once we got home Fluffy was relaxed. They left our home exactly as they found it, plus they cleaned up a pan I had nearly destroyed and left a beautiful floral display. We were very pleased as they made our few days away worry free and the process was effortless. We would be happy for them both to stay in our home and look after Fluffy again.

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.

CLEAN & CARING housesitters looking for furry or feathered friends :)
Libby and Adel did a fantastic job looking after our cat Kyan while we were away for 2 weeks! The flat was spotless when we came home and we had lots of cute photos and updates while we were away. They were very self-sufficient too. We felt so comfortable knowing that Libby and Adel were looking after our cat. We hope they will be able to sit for us in future! Thank you so much :)

Superb house and cat sitter. We had no qualms at all in leaving Tim in charge. Toby loved him and everything in the house was as we left it.

Mature travellers from Australia with extensive housesitting experience
We couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Robin and Ola looked after our pets so well with plenty of regular updates, photos and videos. Our house was also immaculate when we returned. Don’t hesitate to book them for your next sit!

Friendly Oxfordshire based retired couple looking for our next adventure.
A very positive first experience of zeewoi! Chris looked after Stan and the house beautifully, communicated well and left everything immaculate - even gifting us some apples and a bottle of wine.

trustworthy sitter and mature, retired female who loves cats and travel
Michelle’s focus was our little cat. She is so organised and excellent at identifying the needs of the cat. The cat was so well cared for and Michelle was a great companion to her. She was respectful of our home, instructions and our pet. We got daily updates and everything Michelle does is about care. To top it off we returned to an immaculate home and a delicious homemade feta and spinach pie! All round a five star.

It's been an absolute pleasure to have Simona look after Lola the Cat and the house. Simona is friendly, professional, uncomplicated and a great communicator. It was lovely seeing her bond with my shy cat. The regular photo and video updates really captured Lola's quirky personality. I knew my pet was in good hands. Simona was also very self sufficient and the house was super clean and tidy when I returned. Thank you so much for all your help, Simona. We would love to invite you back for future house sits.

Trustworthy & caring couple with lots of love for animals ❤️
This was the second time within two months that Paula came to look after my house rabbits Max and Cyndi. Cyndi had just had surgery in connection with her ongoing bladder problems and needed medication during the recovery process. "Nurse Paula" again did a great job and on top of that took my bunny to the vet halfway through the sit for a quick follow-up appointment. She also informed me immediately when my boy Max seemed a bit off and gave him some emergency meds for his occasional "upset stomach" right away. He thankfully seemed normal and hungry when I walked through the door a few hours later! I am grateful having had Paula on my site during this time since she was a great help and did everything without further ado. She always leaves the house spotless and is the most pleasant house guest you could wish for. I very much hope to welcome her again in the future!
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!! She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :) Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.
Lisa was a terrific sitter for our sweet Rosie. She arrived the evening before the sit, and we immediately could tell how much love and attention Rosie was to get. She provided updates and pictures which we were delighted to read, and we could tell Rosie was happy and well-cared for with Lisa on their walks and fetching sessions, on their car rides, and during Rosie’s many daily naps. Lisa left the house in great condition, she’s very tidy and clean. Lisa’s experience with dogs and her friendly, sweet personality makes her an excellent sitter taking good care of animals while also being easy to communicate with. I would recommend her and would gladly invite her back.
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.
I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.

Excellent kennel and grooming set up. We have used them for many years and many dogs, we would recommend them to anyone. Our current working Cocker likes it so much that he jumps out of the truck and goes straight to the kennels without looking back.
Your dogs could be in better hands. We’ve used the kennels for the past 3 years and the dogs think it’s a home from home. Sally and the team take such good care of our dogs, I swear they are said when we come to pick them up. Can’t recommend them enough
I'm reviewing the Parlour. Our long haired German Shepherd was groomed here. I have to say they did a fantastic job. He was very matted underneath and his trousers were in dire need of dematting as he refuses to let us brush him thoroughly. He was picked up from our house and returned a few hours later like a new dog. Not a single matt in sight, extremely shiny coat and so much more comfortable. At our request he had a lovely trim all over including his paws and trousers which has made daily brushing much more manageable. Great price and awesome service. Thank you from Enzo
Very good place for dogs to stay, they were well looked after, staff are friendly and there's plenty of room inside and out. Many thanks to the team
Katy provides a consistently professional service. Listens, understands and transforms into an attractive, weather sensitive cut. Moses can be anxious a breed but is managed well with a calm, patient manner. 🐾 …
We came up to go to santa pod to find out no dogs on site. Called multiple places but Penhazy was only place with space. Very friendly and welcoming. My 10 week old rottweiler puppy seem to have great time and enjoyed her day hear
First visit at the groomers for my Cavachon today and I'm very happy with the result. We've been to a few different groomers and this one was the best for overall groom, I will return. Dog has come out looking teddy bear fluffy with lovely rounded feet and a cute face. Very clean and smart. Professional job from friendly staff. Dog was very happy with his treatment. I arrived a little early for collection and could see him wagging his tail through the window. Parlour cleanliness needs some attention but I would recommend. Good value for money.
A great stay for our retired greyhound. All our worries were put aside upon arrival. Sally wonderful with all dogs in her care. Definitely recommend and will use again when needed. Thank you Sally very much and all the staff Quirky loved her stay.
They cancelled our August booking, made at least 4 months prior to departure, 3 working days before we were due to fly to Canada for a 2 week holiday. "Circumstances beyond our control" was the only excuse offered. Could have cost us thousands of pounds. Call around 20 kennels and serval home boarders before I found alternative kenneling. Not impressed.
Glyka loves it at Penhazy! He gets to play with other dogs, always comes home happy and exhausted. Last time he stayed the weekend, we had them clip his nails which are difficult for us to do because of his long quicks. We were very pleased with the results.
I have used We Lobe Pets (Raunds) twice now and can not put into words what a fantastic job they truly love pets I would recommend this to anyone looking to place there pet into a home from home this is the place
Carl was fantastic from start to finish. He was prompt in responding to our request and offered us the chance to meet him and look around his home to acquaint our puppy Callie before booking. Carl was very reassuring about the whole process and as this was the first time we had left our puppy- we were so grateful to know how much experience Carl has. Callie stayed over night and absoultey loved her experience! Carl kept to our routine with Callie, walked her and fed her the same way we do which was amazing as Callie was still in routine when we picked her up the following evening. We received regular updates and pictures and I couldn’t recommend Carl and We Love Pets enough. A fantastic service, very professional and will be booking in again.
Carl and Denise took on the challenge of looking after our 2 cats, 2 rabbits and hamster whilst we were away for a week. They did a superb job! The animals were able to say at home with all their comforts and we got twice daily updates, photos and stories of how they were. We also got the added benefit of knowing our house was okay. The animals were so happy they didn't really seem bothered when we came back! Will definately be using this team again. Thank you
We Love Pets Wellingborough recently looked after my 3 pet rats whilst we went away for a few days. Carl was very thorough in getting to know their needs and daily routines and kept me posted with regular pictures and videos during my time away which help put me at ease. The rats were very happy and content when I came to pick them up and their cage was immaculate. Will definitely be using their services again and would highly recommend We Love Pets Wellingborough to all pet owners!
Super pleased with Carl and how he gets on with Dudley! It's great to have the peace of mind knowing he is happy during the day while I'm at work. Carl is very professional and took lots of care to learn about Dudley's needs and what he likes, which was really reassuring. You can tell that there's a passion for working with animals which is great! Very happy owner and very happy pooch, highly recommend!
Trusting your dog with a stranger can be a daunting experience however the caring (and professionally licensed!) service provided has given me back my lunchtimes! I can confidently book a holiday now knowing the task of finding a sitter for Lucy is done. Thank you Carl!
I needed somebody walk my dog during the day but wasn't sure who to trust. Carl put all my fears to rest and I am really comfortable with the professional and friendly service offered by We Love Pets Wellingborough. Highly recommended!
We have just started to use Carl having had a bad experience previously and cannot recommend him highly enough. He really bonded with my dog and I felt confident in his care.
Placed on behalf of Cooper. I would like to thank Carl for the wonderful walks he takes me on, hes so much better than my previous walker. Although i think i deserve more treats.
My 2 dogs stayed with a lady called Jackie in Higham Ferrers they were well looked after and happy. Whst more coikd you ask for
Henry was very professional and efficient. Rowan walked happily with him and he is clearly experienced with the care of all dogs. I felt totally confident that my dog would be well cared for and safe. Thank you Henry!
Thank you, Kat & Henry! I felt incredibly anxious leaving my bunny but the regular photo updates and fast communication put me at ease. Would definitely use this service again!
Fantastic and professional care! My dogs were walked in a time of need and I felt they were well exercised and looked after! Thank you! Xx
Our little lady stayed at Sunrise Boarding Kennels for the day. Rebecca (one of the Kennel Owners) was very helpful in responding to any queries we had beforehand. On arrival, we were greated by kennel staff who were friendly and helpful. The kennels are 'spotless' and well maintained. Our girl enjoyed her little walk in the afternoon and was happy when we came to collect her later that day. We will be using Sunrise again in the future. Thank you Amanda
Titan came in for a trail day to see how he will get on as he's never been in a kennel and is a nervous dog with people he loved every minute of it and coped really well 😀 he also loved the lady jess who walked and looked after him, Titan is looking forward to his stay in January I highly recommend leaving your beloved dog with sunrise for peace of mind, thank you again for looking after him 😊
We booked our cats in with Rebecca months ago and then one of our boys went missing so as you can imagine I was really worried about sending the other in alone having never stayed in a cattery. Rebecca and her team were absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. It was such a easy process and we received regular updates and photos. We then had a absolute nightmare with flights trying to get back to the UK due to a engine problem. In my jet lagged state I forgot the collection times and turned up in the kennels quite time. They were so lovely and helpful in letting us get our Fudge when they could have told us to come back. Even more he was so relaxed that it was like he didn't want to come home. He's been home a few hours and it's like he never left. No stress. Just one happy cat. I can't recommend Rebecca and her team enough and will definitely be using them again. Thanks a million.
I cannot recommend Sunshine Kennels highly enough. I was looking after a relatives dog due to illness and they made every step of the process easy and would go out of their way if I had any question. 10/10 Fantastic staff
Highly recommend, Rebecca and her team cared for my two dogs while I was away and I wouldn’t leave them anywhere else now, from the first viewing I had of the kennels I knew that they would be looked after and cared for. The whole process was so smooth, nothing was too much for the staff, they really made me feel at ease and I also enjoyed updates whilst I was away :) thank you all
Rebecca and sunrise took incredible care of my two cats. From the booking, to viewing the cattery, and making several changes to my booking - Rebecca was super helpful, supportive and accomdating. The cattery is in a lovely location, with great views for the cats - plenty of wildlife and flowers! The rooms are very spacious, temperature controlled and really clean. I knew the cats were in great hands and being well looked after. Thoroughly recommend
Just want to say thank you so much for looking after my mums dogs. All the staff are so polite and friendly, such a lovely boarding kennels as well I highly recommend you using this kennels.
We have been using the kennels for years, we trust them to look after our dogs, the care they get is of a high standard
Staff were very helpful and understanding to are dogs needs. As for the day care, you will have to ask the dog.
Place was looked ok but they'd lost my booking after getting confused with another dog with the same name. They still had space though so I left him. On picking up my, normally laid back, dog he seemed unusually desperate to get out. He has an activity tracker on his collar which showed he'd had no more than 35 mins exercise each day (almost all classed as "walking"). He is an energetic dog that can do that just walking around the house between walks.
My dogs absolutely love Carey and the team. They always consider which groups of dogs to walk them in for group walks, and my puppy has come on leaps and bounds with her training walks. We did a training session with Carey too and she had so much advice for both on walks and inside the house. DON'T: expect your dog to come home clean! DO: expect them to sleep the day away after so much activity!
Do not use. I came home to a skeletal & dehydrated cat. My cat has subsequently been put to sleep. Broached it with the sitter & got told excuses & refused a refund. Shame on Carey for continuing to deny her responsibility in this. My vet is horrified. Don’t believe the rubbish Carey is saying. Avoid at all costs. My cats aren’t skinny. They’re all super healthy. No decent sitter would have failed to see the deterioration in my cat. See you in court Carey. I’ve then been threatened re my work when I requested a refund.
My partner and I are moving out of the area soon, but top two things we will miss about St Neots are: a) daily walks at Paxton Pits, and b) Carey and the team at St Neots Pet Care. Carey has been walking our pup since he was 5 months old and it's been one of the best decisions we've made since we brought him home. He has gone from a shy and clingy puppy to a sociable, friendly, and playful dog, running out the door when Karen arrives with her van. He has an absolutely fabulous time out with his friends on each walk and comes home exhausted and happy as can be. I cannot thank the team enough for the great care and love they have shown to Merlin. Carey is hugely reachable and very accommodating, adjusting to changes in schedule and quick to get in touch with any concerns or issues with behaviour or health. I love that, as a veterinary nurse, she can check any little problems we're worried about ASAP, and it is so easy to buy our dog any number of tasty natural treats through the business. She is a wonderful contribution to the community around St Neots. Thank you so much Carey, Karen, and everyone in the team!
Carey is absolutely wonderful taking care of Gracie, our cat whilst we are on holidays. Gracie has diabetes and needs twice daily insulin injections. It’s perfect for us that Carey comes to our house, feeds, plays and gives Gracie her insulin with lots of fun in the comfort of home. I honestly can’t thank Carey enough - with her support, kindness, medical expertise and friendship gives me total peace of mind. I would recommend Carey St Neots Pet Care Services without a second thought.
I contacted Carey in a bit of a panic as I was going away on holiday and my cat, Pippa, had started showing signs of a urine infection. I knew the existing care I had in place for her was not going to be adequate as she would need medication administered. Carey was brilliant, responded really quickly and came round that day to meet me and Pippa and she was so professional, warm and friendly that I had instant confidence in her. In short, she saved our holiday, Pippa is now back to full health, and I will definitely be asking her to come again in the future.
Highly recommend St Neots Pet Care Services. Carey takes our fur baby out a few times a week and I honestly cannot fault her. She has spent training sessions with him and has taught him to walk off lead (where appropriate). I've seen her out and about on group walks and the dogs are always well-behaved. I was a bit worried about the socialisation aspect with bigger dogs as mine is quite small but Carey made sure this was done at my dogs pace and now he sits at the door and waits for her in the mornings! I get photos during the walks and the routes they have taken too. Also a huge bonus that Carey is also a qualified vetinary nurse, makes me feel even more confident that my one is in good hands!
We went away for 10 days and left our 2 cats in Carey’s very capable hands. She kept us updated regularly and sent photos/videos to show us they were okay. Our girls loved her visits, would highly recommend Carey to anyone!
Carey has been taking our nuisance of a dog out twice a week for several months now. She is reliable, friendly and the dog cannot wait to jump in the van each time she arrives. Working from home it's been a godsend for us knowing that the dog will be taken for a really good run regardless of the weather, and gets returned to us rinsed and exhausted. We then get a whole afternoon of peace and quiet whilst he snores away! On top of that, Carey provides us with so much great advice and guidance and is a one-stop-shop for petcare, natural treats and dog walking.
We stumbled upon Carey whilst looking for a vet nurse to pet sit for us whilst we were away for a few days. One of our house rabbits had recently had a complex operation and we wanted a vet nurse to continue her post-operative nursing care and supplementary feeds for a few days whilst we were away. Carey is friendly, extremely competant and took on the challenge with ease. We also have two parrots, another bunny and a tortoise and she did a fantastic job looking after our menagerie whilst we were away despite the list of tasks being very long! Carey kept us updated during our break and we won't hesitate to call upon her services again. Thanks Carey! :)
I can not praise Carey and her team enough. The abundance of love my fur bestie ‘Cody’ receives is unconditional. My heart literally melts every time I see the love and kindness my fur boy Cody is greeted with, and treated as thou he was their own 💕 In addition to the wonderful walkies , Carey being a veterinarian nurse means I also get Cody’s nail clipped and even teeth cleaned! Saving me loads of money and time! Cody means the world to me and my family and now the St Neots Pet Care team . I absolutely trust the team and 100% know my Cody is taken well care of . I can’t thank the team enough for all their love, care and support for my fur bestie! A massive heartfelt thank you 🙏 St Neots Pet Care is reliable and trustworthy. I wouldn’t have Cody with anyone else.
