Shannon
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Reliable, calm, caring, non-smoking, retired couple with a great love of dogs.
Shannon, Colin and Bella came for a 2nd sit for our boys and it's lovely to have them. Once again, we came home to very happy and chilled dogs, a lovely tidy house and a delicious home made curry from Colin. We love having them as feel totally relaxed being away, knowing Peanut and Merlin are having their own lovely holiday with days out, lots of cuddles and play time with Bella. Look forward to having them visit again soon.
Sarah
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Sarah and Rob, friendly, reliable, house / petsitters
Sara and Robert were perfect guests. Pets looks after extremely well with occasional photos to keep us updated. The house was immaculate with a lovely card and gift on our return. Welcome back any time they are in the area. A+
Valerie
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Mother & Daughter duo, animal lovers, writers
Val and Ornella were great, they kept us updated on the cats and left the house very clean and tidy. The cats were indifferent to us getting back which is always a great sign that they've had loads of attention! We'd invite Val and Ornella to sit again without hesitation
Stella
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Looking forward to loving your pets & home as our own, so you can relax !
What can I say? Stella is The zeewoi's Angel. The animals absolutely love her. She keeps in contact while we are away and the house sparkles when we return. Thank you Stella, for looking after what is most precious,
Michelle
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Professional couple in our 50’s, who can’t wait to meet your adorable pets.
We arranged our second sit with Michelle and Charlie and as before, they didn’t disappoint. Great comms before the sit, and we retuned to an immaculately clean and tidy house as well as a very contented kitty. We can’t speak highly enough of Michelle and Charlie, hopefully we can align the stars for another sit next year. Thanks so much again to you both.
Viv
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
We're responsible, kind, pet lovers who'd love to care for your pets and home.
This was always going to be a difficult sit looking after 2 very mischievous 5 month old kittens but we had a really good video call with Viv so we were confident that everything would be fine. Then on the day that Viv & Graham arrived one of the kittens got sick and had to go into hospital for 2 nights meaning we had to cancel our departure. Viv & Graham very totally calm about this and just checked themselves into an Airbnb for a couple of nights. They were due to come back to our house after that as we were leaving early in the morning on newly booked flights and then our water main exploded leaving us with no water. Once again this was no problem to Viv & Graham and they found themselves somewhere to stay for another night. We finally got away 4 days late and from that moment on everything was plain sailing. Viv sent us photos and videos of the kittens every day, as we had requested. Graham fixed a big sunshade that had fallen down and the cats got lots of love and attention. We came back to happy, healthy cats, a spotlessly clean house and a delicious traybake. We would happily have Viv & Graham back to sit for us again and highly recommend them to anyone else.

John & Wendy
John and Wendy were brilliant. Boris adored his walks and cuddles. Thank you
Martin
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Dedicated, reliable, non-smoking, pet-sitter
Martin arrived the previous night due to a long drive to ours which was agreed on both parts. This allowed us to start our holiday a day earlier. Martin kept in touch everyday. Videos pictures and updates on their walks; forever grateful for these. Frank has become a fussy eater recently. Martin changed his daily allowance to twice a day which Frank has enjoyed; will continue to do so hopefully. House was immaculate on return. Bedding washed and hung on the line. Puppies walked prior to his departure. A true gent. Thank you for looking after our siblings with such care, passion and devotion. Safe journey ahead to you. It was a pleasure meeting you.
Hans

Experienced and reliable professional couple taking time out to travel.
Thank you Hans and Liz for the excellent care and consideration you gave in taking care of my cat , my house and my Garden . it was a pleasure to have you and wish you all the best looking for your ' forever home ! '
James
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Nomadic spirits with a love of all animals, especially cats and dogs.
It was a pleasure to have James and Helene stay in our home with Jupiter and Everest. James arrived on time for our departure and was a lovely man to meet. Very kind and friendly which put us instantly at ease. They left the house very clean and tidy which was hugely appreciated. The dogs were both well cared for and we had some pup updates whilst we were away. We would gladly have them stay again.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Steve
Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Sheri
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Lisa
Jasmine is a five-star sitter. She is everything you want in a sitter when you go away and leave your beloved pet and home. She is reliable, communicative, respectful, and flexible. We had no worries about our dog or home while we were away, and will be having Jasmine sit for us again soon. Our home was immaculate when we got home, and our dog was obviously well-cared-for. Can't say enough good things about this wonderful human.
Michelle
Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!
Rob
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
Ruth
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Andrew
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.
Marcel
Mikayla was a superb house/dog sitter for us for one full week. She was an excellent communicator, very quiet and tidy (respectful of the space) and best of all she quickly bonded with our big dog Mouse. She cheerfully took her for long walks and shared photo updates regularly. I highly recommend Mikayla.
JoAnn
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
Mark & Anne
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!

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

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

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