Claire
Shalden, United Kingdom
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!
Paul
Shalden, United Kingdom
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.
Christian
Shalden, United Kingdom
Looking to explore the UK and it's furry inhabitants.
Christian is an exceptional pet sitter and I highly recommend him. Before meeting my two cats, he took the time to ask thoughtful questions and make notes about their personalities, which immediately reassured me that they were in good hands. His care and attention to detail were evident throughout, as he regularly sent me updates and photos while I was away. Not only did he look after my cats with genuine affection, but he also kept my flat spotless. Coming home to such a clean and welcoming space was a delight. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christian to anyone and hope to have him as a sitter again in the future.
Matthew
Shalden, United Kingdom
Transatlantic Lovers of Furry Friends!
Matt and Jo were great sitters. Pumpkin was v well looked after and had lots of fuss and attention while we were away. They're very experienced and it shows - they agreed with us what we did and didn't want and need and made sure we had updates and news. The house was clean and tidy and ready for us when we got back. We'd welcome them back any time - highly recommended. A big thank you to you both!!
Lucie
Shalden, United Kingdom
Friendly, honest and reliable sitter
Lucie cared for my cat several times in the past and she is always so reliable and organised. Plus my cat is often sad when I go away but with her he is happy and eats normally. I can only recommend Lucie to anyone. She also takes excellent care of the apartment and the plants.
Michael
Shalden, United Kingdom
I'm a photographer and animal lover *Triple vaccinated*
This was our first experience of using a housesitter and we couldn’t have chosen anyone better than Michael. He was very easy to get on with, reliable and kept us fully informed at every stage of the process. We appreciated him asking if we wanted updates on our pets while we were away and it was reassuring to be sent photos of our cat who clearly made friends very quickly! The house was spotlessly clean and tidy when we returned home - all in all Michael made it a very good experience for us.
Duane
Shalden, United Kingdom
Principal Engineer/Application Developer, travellers, ramblers, pet lovers.
Duane is the best and it’s amazing how much our typically shy cats have grown to love him. Our cats are so cute that typically people just want to eat them all up!
Jennifer
Shalden, United Kingdom
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.
Elizabeth
Shalden, United Kingdom
Industrious & practical couple looking to provide peace of mind to owners
This was our first time with housesitters and Libby and Peter were amazing! They were reassuring before we left, came to meet us and the dogs and arrived at the house soon after we'd left. They sent photos and messages while we were away which put us at ease. The dogs loved them and were very well cared for. The house was exactly how we left it, the plants were well looked after and they had even washed the bedding and towels. Would definitely recommend Libby and Peter.
Michelle
Shalden, United Kingdom
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.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Natalie
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Kara
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
Leslie
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Casey
Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
Anna
Cindy is an absolutely fantastic sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her care for our dog and our home whilst we went on our family holiday. Her communication before and throughout our sit was fantastic, and she even took our dog to the vet when he needed an unexpected checkup. She took great care of him and sent daily updates including videos and photos of their time together. We could tell that he felt very relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Cindy - it is a real godsend to have someone so kind and caring to take care of your pets and home and we would be delighted to have Cindy back again in future.
Lori
Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.
Laura
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
Craig
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.
Sidney & Larry
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!

You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!

Its important to know that your best friends are happy and safe when you are away. Luna and Clarence love staying with Natalia and are so well looked after they have a holiday as well. Highly recommended
Our dog has been going to Basil's for 2 years now and she absolutely loves it! We wanted to make sure she was in a comfortable and loving home environment as she can be nervous, and Basil's ticked all the boxes. Natalia cares for each dog as if they were her own and our furbaby is always super excited to get to daycare in the morning, and suitably worn out in the evening!
Mylo goes to Natalia for his holidays when we go on ours. The minute the door is opened he is through it!. We have used Basil’s boarding services quite a few times now and love the regular updates and pictures we get. Natalia understands each dog has its different needs and ensures their time at her house is as comfortable and stress free as possible. If they want the couch, they can have the couch. 🐾 I cannot recommend her enough and am never worried about leaving my ‘third child’, just maybe a little guilty……🐾
Natalia and Basil are great! Our dog attended weekly daycare for two and a half years, and he loved it. Early drop off and late pick up hours made the schedule really easy with working hours. Natalia works hard to ensure dogs are a good fit together and adapts to the needs of individual dogs. The small group and home environment means every dogs gets special attention.
Fantastic care for my nervous dog! I highly recommend Basil’s Doggie Daycare to anyone looking for daycare and boarding- I use both of these services. Natalia is so knowledgeable and excellent with dogs, I know my dog will always receive the best care with her. She has so much fun and gets lots of attention. Last year my dog spent over a week boarding here while I was away, she came home happy and relaxed. I received daily updates, photos and videos of all the fun and had no concerns or worries at all. I have a booked a further boarding stay.
My dog Inca loves Natalia very much, rushes into her place every time. She takes good care of Inca and send us pictures and video of cute moments of Inca and let us know how's Inca doing that day, give advices when needed.
We're so happy dropping Minnie off for day care each week, but not as happy as she is! It's definitely the highlight of her week and has socialised her so well with other dogs. Natalia sends us photos and videos during the day and in the evening we have one tired puppy! It's clear to see Natalia is great with all sizes of dogs and Minnie absolutely loves her. She also loves her overnight stays and settles as if she was at home. Definitely recommend
Natalia is not only knowledgeable and professional but has a true affinity with the dogs in her care. Tilly is happy and contented when she has a holiday with Natalia and we are happy and contented to go away leaving her in safe loving hands.
Fantastic experience of day and overnight home boarding care for our lively sprocker spaniel ‘Woody’. Woody has stayed with Natalia and Basil every year for the last 5 years (except during Covid) for our annual 2 week holiday and has also stayed numerous weeks, weekends or odd days. He is always very well looked after, well-walked and Natalia even cooked dog biscuits for him during his stay on his Birthday. Really appreciate all the personal photos and videos Natalia sends during his stay with reassurance that he is having a great stay! Highly recommend
Our doggie stayed for a few nights and when we picked her up she did not want to come home she was so happy. Very well looked after. Will be using basils again in the future for over night stays and weekly walks

We used Tracey for cat sitting when we were away for a weekend. Tracey was good at giving us updates on how everything was and asking what times would be suitable for the visit. We felt comfortable knowing our cat was being taken care of, and on the plus side, despite being a shy cat, he actually came out and even played with Tracey for a bit! Would definitely be using We Love Pets and Tracey again 😊
I have been using We Love Pets for over 2 years now. Tracey & team are fantastic and I have peace of mind for our cat every time we need to be away! Our cat is scared of strangers and Tracey patiently built trust with Aria always ensuring she feels safe and has someone to play with. They are professional, trustworthy and flexible! I cannot recommend them enough! :) Thank you so much!
Our dog has been walked by the team at We Love Pets for almost 4 years. Unfortunately, we are moving out of the area so will not be able to stay with them. They have been absolutely fantastic. Tracey is really quick to respond and meets pretty much every request we have had. We have had walks around Christmas, at weekends as well as our usual weekly walks. Our dog has always been well looked after and has enjoyed his walks with the team. Thanks so much!
We Love Pets have been helping with visits with my two since they were puppies. I cannot recommend Tracey and her team highly enough. Our dogs are so happy with the attention they receive on their daily visits and I am reassured by the reliability and friendliness of the team.
I have recently started using We Love Pets and already I can't thank Tracey enough for looking after my dog Bailey. She went out of her way to shuffle round her own schedule to accommodate walking Bailey - after meeting with Tracey and seeing how well Bailey took a liking to Tracey it really put my mind at ease. I would definitely recommend We Love Pets, they are so reliable, flexible and friendly. Thank you so much x
Polo and I cannot recommend Tracey and her team enough. Not only is Tracey amazingly professional but a lovely person too. She's not only completely and utterly reliable for weekly walks she also goes out of her way to help at short notice. Her team are absolutely wonderful with Polo and he adores his best friend walkers. Tracey has also gone out of her way to find the perfect doggo walking buddy for Polo. I recommend Tracey to everyone as she treats Polo with such love and what more could you want from the person you entrust your dogs care with?!
I have used We Love Pets for nearly five years now and the team have really taken the stress away from me with managing pet care with a busy work schedule. Tracey and the team are professional, friendly and reliable and go above and beyond to help me out, even at the last minute. George my pug is always happy and calm when I return from work and he adores all of his walkers. I would recommend this service to anyone needing professional pet care and particularly for the personable and warm approach from the team. Thank you so much!
Tracey looked after my two cats while away on holiday. She popped by beforehand to meet the cats & get oriented with their routine (feeding, letting outside, etc.). She sent us pictures & updates while I was away. I highly recommend Tracey as she provided wonderful service, great communication, and not to mention very reasonable pricing.
Tracy has looked after our Sausage Dogs on a number of occasions and they both adore her. They are quite high maintenance and demanding, she is always patient and affectionate with them. She has also looked after our cats, gerbil and Guinea pigs. We trust her implicitly and wouldn't have anyone else caring for our pets. Highly recommended.
Tracey was a lifesaver! I couldn’t recommend her and the company enough. She looked after our two cats while we went on vacation for a week with such care. We had regular updates with pictures everyday and came home to happy cats. Will absolutely be using again for future trips. Thanks Tracey!

Always great service from Lottie and Tracey, even though our dog isn't the best behaved!! But they're still willing to have him for boarding and take the very best care of him. Would highly recommend!
When my partner and I moved into a new area and needed to find a dog walker- we couldn’t have been any luckier in finding All the B’s! Our nervous and often reactive Border Collie has transformed with the love, patience and care these guys show her. From the beginning they have been professional, flexible and they love my dog like one of their own. More importantly, my dog loves them right back which tells me all I need to know! If you are looking for a reliable, professional dog walker who knows their stuff I would highly recommend All the B’s 👍🏻
Absolutely lovely. Used All the B’s for pet pop-ins for my hamster and they took fantastic care of her. Reliable, friendly, accommodating, kind-hearted. They clearly genuinely care about all animals. Will definitely be using them again in the future.
Threatened to have our dog impounded After agreeing to a before 6pm pick up, then retracting this as we were away, leaving our family worried that our dog had gone. Also gave him fleas 0 ⭐️ Unprofessional/vulgar people, stay away!
Exceptional service. Our cat is very nervous around new people and he absolutely lovesTracy and Lottie. Reliable, trustworthy and brilliant with cats!
My guineapigs had a lovely stay and were well looked after. Great friendly service. Would definitely book again!
Friendly and very reliable. Welfare of the animals are clearly their priority.
Brilliant pet service

So glad we found Posh Dog Boarding, we were so nervous after a past experience with a local Kennel. We shouldn’t have worried as the second we arrived they made us feel at ease, we had videos sent twice and Ziggy had a lovely time playing …
