Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter
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 was an excellent pet sitter for our dogs Willa and Kato. She was attentive to their needs, administered medications, dealt with Kato’s unexpected ear problem and made sure they both were able to follow their daily routines and get plenty of exercise. It was quite obvious when we returned home that the three had bonded with each other and we know they will enjoy future sits already scheduled with Lisa. She was great about sending photos and updates while we were traveling, and it was a joy to come home to an immaculate house and thriving houseplants! We highly recommend Lisa as an extremely reliable, caring and self-sufficient pet sitter!
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
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!
Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.
Katie & Kevin jumped in last-minute, as our sitters had to cancel. And what can I say: We couldn't have chosen better even if we would had more choices and time. Katie & Kevin were so easy to communicate with and the first meeting and handoff were so easy and smooth. We could go on vacation with peace of mind knowing our dog and 2 ponies are in the best hands. Katie & Kevin: Thank you so much for looking after our animals so well !!!
Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests. Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
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!!

It was the first time our dog had stayed away from home, but we needn't have worried. Mandy was gentle with her, and understanding of her health problems. We would be happy to recommend Gateshead Pet Sitters to others.
Donna and Mark offer an amazing and reliable dog walking service. We’ve used Angels for around 2 years. I know Maggie is safe and looked after even with all her complexities and she loves to see mark walk through the door. He goes above and beyond and is so caring towards her. Can’t recommend enough!
We were so pleased to have Donna look after our reactive bedlington. She did a house sit so that we could go away for the first time in 3 years. Donna sent regular texts and videos of our dog and kept to his daily routine as much as possible. He seemed very happy and relaxed with Donna. Many thanks for a wonderful service.
Donna and Mark are absolutely fantastic, we have 3 day care and 2 afternoon walks booked every week for our border collie jax who absolutely loves both of them. They communicate well and when we have boarded with them the family thy has had jax send regular updates and we’ve had no worries at all. Lovely people and we’d be lost without them
We take our pup to doggy day care twice a week. Donna is a great business woman and very attentive with all her customers, you instantly feel at ease when dropping your little one off with her. Our puppy's confidence and social experience has grown so much since her time with Donna she has grown into a calm young lady. We met Donna through her puppy training classes and thought it would be an amazing opportunity to boost her skills and confidence further with Donna through day care.
I can’t rate Donna highly enough. Bailey did his puppy training with Donna and I’ve used her daycare facilities for about 4 months with not a single problem. Bailey has lots of fun when he spends the day with Donna and her team and he’s made lots of puppy friends. Angels Pet Care is very good value for money and she is very flexible when it comes to cancelling days or adding days at short notice. Keep up the good work!!
Can't recommend Angels petcare highly enough. Donna and her team have been a great help to us and our working cocker spaniel puppy. Very professional and friendly, they do a great job with the dogs and regularly post photo/video updates from the walks on their Facebook page. Donna visited us before the first daycare session and gave some advice on training techniques in the home, which has helped us enormously. We were able to get our puppy Daisy started at very short notice (following week) which again was really good. Very glad we contacted Donna and has been a good all round experience, in socialisation as well as the exercise, for Daisy, she seems very happy each time she goes. Thanks again!
We have 2 Dalmatians that are walked every week by Angels Pet care, I couldn't trust anyone more than Donna & her team to look after my dogs. The advice Donna also gives is next to none & I would always turn to her in terms of needing help with my dogs. Photos are constantly posted on the facebook page to show you what your dogs have been up to! We have also used to the dog sitting service with short notice & the dogs were very happy & I also received photos of how they were doing. I would definitely recommend this knowledgeable & experienced team for any of their services.
We used a previous dog walker who discontinued her dog walking service. My westie can be a little difficult at times to manage but Donna and the team have been so patient. They spent time meeting my parents with Alfie away from my house and it was clear Alfie was going to be just fine. It's good to see Alfie mixing with other dogs on his walk a too. Donna tells me Alfie is fine with all her team which is very reassuring as i was worried how he would be with strangers in the house. It also helps that Donna is an accredited dog trainer. I have had situations where I have needed last minute dog walking and Donna has always been able to help which is great.
My cockapoo puppy started attending puppy day care at Angel's pet care when she was 2.5 months old, it gave me the confidence to go to work knowing my puppy was in good hands and not alone all day since i can't get home from work to see her at lunch time. Donna and Mark are brilliant, I've noticed such a difference in the puppies behaviour since attending day care, she's much better around other dogs and humans. Quiet evenings are a testament to how much fun she has at daycare!
We have recently moved back home to Scotland after living in Newcastle for 2.5 years and if I could pick Donna and the girls up and move them it would be great. We went through a few walkers in Newcastle before finally finding Donna our bulldog Bella can be pretty stubborn and head strong as they are but they were great with her nothing was too much trouble and we felt she was improving with every walk. I am genuinely so sad that Bella won't have these walks anymore as they were so good with her and I would recommend them 100 times over especially to people who have dogs that can be a little bit mischievous. Thanks Angels for all your help.
We have used these kennels on several occasions and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Golden Retriever has just come back from home from home boarding after an 18-night stay. These kennels have to be one of the best around . The staff are great , no nasty kennel smell when he comes back and a washed bed !.
Wouldn’t take our dogs anywhere else, the service Home From Home provide is excellent. We began boarding our dogs here after a negative experience with another boarding kennels, so were quite dubious of trying out another place in case the same thing happened. However, the staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful, and it’s clear they care about the dogs and cats as if they were their own. If there’s ever been an issue with our dogs they’re always quick to communicate it to us, and we know that our dogs are in safe hands when left here. Especially love the Facebook updates of your pets, so you get to see they’re doing just fine without you.
Nancy had her 1 night stay She was very happy when i picked her back up Staff are so friendly and had even washed her blanket Would definitely recommend this boarding kennels to anyone who has a dog Thank you again for taking such good care of Nancy
Jasper has stayed with Home from Home a few times now. He really seems to enjoy himself. He is well looked after by the staff and loves his walks through the woods. Thank you for another enjoyable stay for Jasper, and we'll see you next time.
Any questions or anxieties were put to bed with my dogs staying here. Staff very helpful and willing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place, they seemed to genuinely love and care for all the dogs. My 2 returned home tired and seemed to enjoy their little mid week stay. Provisionally booked again for next year.
We all miss our pets terribly when we put them in kennels and go on holiday. The care here is fabulous and they regularly post your pooch having fun walking the woods or in the bark park, which is very reassuring. Well done again guys, wouldn’t go anywhere else.
A family business that loves and cares for your pet of any size from dogs and cats to gerbils, rabbits, birds or rabbits!
Brilliant staff who adore our dogs. Facebook updates of them having fun; always go in with a wagging tail! Can’t recommend them enough :)
Went for a visit with my dog so he can get used to the place and using the bark park. Absolutely over the moon found this place. Lively staff, especially Claire and brilliant price. Out the way so don't nneed to worry about my dog possibly trying to do the great escape and not near main road. Can also book online which is a bonus. Definitely booking the park out for my dog as he loved it and sulked as he had to leave.
At first, this place seemed perfect for our dog who had anxiety issues around other dogs as we could pay extra to keep her in a separate living area in her own room. But when she stayed one night for a trial period, because she was old and it was a new experience, she had wee'd a few times, as most dogs do. When we went to pick her up on the Saturday, we were told that we were late picking her up as all the staff finished midday on the Saturday and there was only the owners staying over the weekend, which made me think the dogs weren't getting very much attention over that period. We were also told that if she wee'd a few times when she stayed, she would have to be put in with the other dogs kennels, which was what we were paying for her NOT to be put in. The thought of this happening when we were on holiday, we abandoned our plans for her to stay here and would advise other dog owners who have dogs with similar issues, to consider this too.
Since getting our Cat, Reuben we have struggled for a long term solution for when we are away on holiday. We have tried Catteries but Reuben always appeared so anxious on collection and he hates car journeys. These all turned into obstacles to the point where we stopped planning holidays. Having researched various companies I came across Pawtastic and it stood out with its amazing 5 star reviews. We were anxious to try it however thought it was the best option for Reuben going forward as he could stay in his home environment. Eduard and Andreea were absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, they put us at ease. Their level of communication was fantastic, and they provided photos after each visit. This really put our minds at rest and allowed us to enjoy our time away. After years of restricting our travel, we now feel 100% confident leaving Reuben in the hands of Andreea and Eduard in the future. On arrival home, he was much more comfortable than he has been in the past when left in Catteries. Would 100% recommend this company! 5 stars from me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolute fabulous cat-sitting service. 1st time we used them. We were away for 11 days and Andreea came in twice a day to feed and check on our furry baby. She is a lovely, warm person and Bobby (very cautious and shy) loved her. We got updates and photos every time Andreea popped in and she was very honest and told us if she hadn't seen him as he was wandering outside- which concerned her but we knew was his style. He's outdoors by night and indoors by day and Andreea coped perfectly with his routine, adapting it when necessary. We also had the benefit of Andreea picking up the post and checking the house was OK which really put our minds at rest when we were so far away. Pawtastic will be the 1st number we call now when we need a sitter. Professional, warm, caring.. perfect. X
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 5 stars and more - excellent professional customer service & of course outstanding pet care! I will definitely be using this company again! Loved the daily updates & photos! My cat looked so happy & content during the house visits! SEE YOU AGAIN SOON 😻 …
We’ve used Pawtastic twice now and they’ve been brilliant for looking after our cat whilst we’ve been away. We were initially very anxious about leaving him, but he gets on so well with Andreea, I’m sure he’s not even that bothered we’re gone. They play with our cat, and send photos to show how he’s doing and are readily available to contact if you have any concerns. We will continue to recommend Pawtastic to our friends and will continue to use them. Thank you so much!!
I’ve been using Pawtastic for a number of months now and their service is great. Trust worthy, reliable and the dogs love them!
Would absolutely recommend Andreaa and Eduard 100%. It can be very scary trying to find the right people to take care of your little furry family member while you're not around but rest assured that Pawtastic will take the best care of your pet! They went above and beyond in caring for our cat, Luna. They gave us updates each time they visited and sent us lots of lovely photos, which we looked forward to each day! We could tell by these photos just how excited Luna was to see the guys everyday too. We will definitely be contacting Pawtastic to help care for Luna next time we're away from home. Thank you both so much ♥️
We have been absolutely delighted with the cat sitting service provided by Ed and Andreea. They are incredibly professional and have taken great care of our three cats whilst we've been away on holiday. Communication has been excellent throughout - we received daily updates and photos, and they went above and beyond by putting our bins out and cleaning our sofas of cat hair for our return. The house was spotless when we got home! Pawtastic has exceeded our expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others 💕 Ted, Milo and Roger also highly recommended them too 🐾😻
Eduard was an amazing cat sitter for my two fur babies. He was very attentive and caring to them, and very communicative the whole time. He kept me updated with pictures everyday of their food and litter box and he even took care of my parcels for me while I was away. I will definitely be using Eduard again next time I go away, he was very professional and I recommend his service 100%!!!
Absolutely brilliant service! We were very anxious about leaving our cat Phil whilst we were on holiday, and he’s too anxious for a cattery. Andreea put our minds at ease. We had brilliant communication whilst we were away and Andreea sent some brilliant photos. Phil was very well looked after and we’ll be sure to use Pawtastic again!
Andreea was fantastic from start to finish. Returned my phone calls and messages promptly and arrived at our hotel exactly as arranged then proceeded to show how wonderful she is with dogs and we left her our dog with complete confidence. She sat with her from 2.30 to 22.30 and gave me regular updates and photos throughout the night. On our return Nala was completely relaxed and well looked after. First time using a dog sitting service and when we travel up to Newcastle again l wouldn’t hesitate in using this brilliant company. Thank you so much !
Colleen has taken my dog for walks 5 days per week since he was very young. She has socialised him and he now interacts really well with other dogs. He walks beautifully on the lead and his recall is great. Thank you Colleen for all you have done for Bear!
Highly recommended dog walking service by Colleen, professional , caring , honest and reliable. We cant thank her enough for looking after our crazy vizsla dog and boarding her in her own house with her own pets when needed. Our dog is happy and socialising with other dogs while we are at work and she gets the full care she needs when we are on holiday. No problem, no hassle and we certainly have a very happy dog whilst in Colleen’s care Ava&Graham
Colleen has been amazing caring for Poppy while I have been on holiday, I would definitely recommend her. It makes going away on holiday more enjoyable knowing your pets are being well cared for. Thank you so much Colleen I will be using your pet sitting services again.
We needed a dog walker when our work patterns changed a couple of years ago- Colleen walks Max every day and we can't praise her enough-she's enthusiastic and very knowledgeable but above all trustworthy. Max loves going out with his doggy 'friends' and it's huge peace of mind for us that he is safe whilst socialising and exercising. She is very flexible and swaps or changes for us if needed. We can highly recommend.
Colleen from walk the line was recommended to me by a friend and I'm so pleased I have found her. She is very professional and helpful. She came out to meet our cat Tilly before we went away. This really helped as it gave me the confidence that Tilly would recognise her when she popped in to feed her. She updated me over the weekend with photos and videos, which put me at ease. When we came home, Tilly was very settled. Within a day, we had already booked Colleen for our next trip away 😁
Walk the Line dog walking services is top class. Colleen provides absolutely top notch service which is excellent value for money and and she is always contactable. Maisie loves her walks and even the mention of Colleen’s name gets her excited and her tail wagging. We’ve been with Colleen for over a year and throughout the duration of this period we’ve always felt Maisie is in safe hands whilst getting long, enjoyable walks. Walk the Line is a highly professional service and I would recommend anyone looking for dog walks to join with Colleen. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put in with taking care of Maisie!
Colleen is an exceptional dog walker! She's always on time, maintains great communication, and ensures that Maisie has a wonderful time during each walk. Colleen's friendly and organised approach gives us complete peace of mind, knowing our beloved dog is in safe and caring hands. We couldn't be happier with her services!
We're over the moon that we discovered Colleen at Walk the Line! Our little fur baby loves seeing Colleen and going on walkies with her. She has helped our little girl build her confidence with a lovely group of doggie friends she can play with each walk. Colleen is great at keeping in touch with photos and videos of her walkies too. She is incredibly organised and excellent at communicating with us. We know our dog will receive the best of care everytime we hand her off to Colleen. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a professional, punctual, reliable and friendly dog walker x
Absolutely brilliant dog walker. My little pug absolutely adores Colleen and gets sooo excited when she picks him up. So much so he waits for her van to pull up and seems to know when she's here. My pug can be a little worky ticket sometimes however working with Colleen he is so much more confident with other dogs and I trust her so much with him and you can tell she loves the dogs so much and bonus I get regular videos and pictures of him on his walks! Since walking with Colleen my pugs behaviour has massively improved too. Will always use walk the line and really really good prices!
Colleen walked our dog Rosa for nearly a year (only stopped because we moved away) and she was absolutely fantastic. Our dog can be quite nervous, but Colleen took really good care of her and Rosa always came back tired and happy! I’d really recommend Walk The Line if you’re looking for a caring and reliable walker :)
We were initially worried to leave our cat at home given that he's 15 and has both kidney disease and regular bouts of pancreatitis. Darrin was brilliant though and made us feel really confident that our cat would be well looked after in his care. When we arrived home it was clear that Whiskers had been absolutely fine all week and his food/litter needs had all been catered for perfectly. The regular emails and photos are also really great and gave us a worry free holiday! We will definitely use Happy Paws again!
What a brilliant service we recieved from Julie at Happy Paws! Julie looked after our elderly and poorly cat for the two weeks we were on holiday providing two visits a day and keeping us updated with photographs and comments on a regular basis. This helped us to feel reasured that Frank the cat was doing ok. Julie took such great care of Frank which included giving him various medication and even collecting more from our vet when it ran low. Julie did everything we asked for and more, the service provided was worth every penny and excellent value compared to a cattery and we came home to a much happier and relaxed pet! I can't recommend Happy Paws highly enough and would use them every time. Thank you so much Julie K
Julie and Darrin have looked after our labrador since she was a puppy. I couldn't recommend them more. They have been life savers during my maternity leave and Rosie waits at the window for them. She is more sociable, relaxed and happier dog as a result of their care.
Julie and Darrin did a fantastic job taking care of my two young cats twice a day for a week this summer. I received lots of picture updates and reassuring messages to let me know they were fine and I will definitely be using the service again!
Happy Paws are reliable and professional, communication is brilliant and most importantly, my dog loves Darrin! Would not hesitate to recommend.
Happy Paws always take fantastic care of our our kittens Bond and Miss Moneypenny, very reassuring to know they are in such great hands and lots of lovely pictures to cherish xx
Julie started looking after my two cats five or six years ago, she is very reliable. Thanks.😊 …
Excellent service, communication and care. My cats were very well looked after. Highly recommended
Use regularly very reliable
Thank you, Geoff!
I have been going to Petsercise since September when I adopted Quizzie a with drawn guide dog. Lauren helped me with some basics on settling her into our new home and building a bond - we then progressed to an agility class. The class is fun and challenging for both the dogs and humans..the rapport and support is really good . I learn something every week and its brilliant for a working labrador with a huge brain. Can't wait to see the new facilities!
Our Dog Oakley ,we got from the RSPCA. He had been locked in a cage and not socialised. He was approx 2years old. We had 3 trainers for him, but then we finally found Petsercise. Best place ever! Lauren helped us with Oakley back in 2021and gave us great knowledge and tips. In 2023 we took the plunge to put Oakley into Petsercise Daycare. He's never looked back! I want to thank you all for all you have done to help him and for all your support for giving Oakley the bestest time! Highly recommend. Thank you!!
We started to do hoopers and agility about one year ago. We have since added some agility workshops. This was my first experience of these activities with a dog and so far outside my comfort zone. It has been great fun, our bond has grown as we have learnt new skills and it is fun Lulu and I can have together. Lauren has been an amazing trainer/coach/therapist, we have learned so much and I can’t imagine ever giving this hobby up, I just need to run faster! Also, what came as a surprise is that there is a real sense of family/community, team support for all manner advice and fun, always there for eachother.
Have been using Petsercise for around seven years. My two boys love the team and are more than happy to go with them for day care or boarding (also very happy when they come back no huffs). We use their grooming for my lakie and taking care of nail trims. My eldest had severe spinal injury a couple of years ago, the hydrotherapy he had from them sped up his recovery and now his favorite place is being in the pool for a swim.
Petsercise has added so much to our lives, as we use many of their services including training, daycare and grooming. Mila always has the best time and I feel so comfortable leaving her in their care. They embrace every dog through their doors and are the most knowledgeable and caring team. The different training sessions I have had with Lauren have given me the confidence and skills needed for a high drive and energetic dog, and her guidance along the way has been invaluable. Huge love to Team Petsercise - I don’t know what I’d do without them!
We have been using Petsercise for many years now. My lab Alfie loves it. He's 12 now so doesn't go as often but he does home boarding, pack walk and more recently hydro swims. The pick up and drop off service is a god send. We know Alfie is in good hands and highly recommend them.
Fantastic facilities and my black lab Lottie loves it here. She’s used the hydrotherapy several times and the day care. She’s now booked in for boarding in February. Fantastic business which I can highly recommend
We recently rescued Mishka and he was in definate need of some pampering and TLC. Zoe managed to fit us into her busy schedule, and our smelly, scruffbag came out looking amazing,following her magic transformation 😘 He smelt absolutely divine and couldn't wait to strut his stuff and show off to his new brother at home!! Zoe was very patient with him as we weren't sure how he would be, but he was very happy and loved the attention. Not sure what happened to his ears though!! 🤣🤣 Before and after photos 💙🐾
Petsercise are my dogs extended family and I wouldn’t use anyone else
Petsercise, specifically Lauren, has made such a difference to mine and my reactive dogs life. I’ve gone from dreading walks to loving them in a year, greatly improving mine and my dogs outlook on life. If you’re struggling with a reactive dog I would 10000% recommend giving them a go!
I cannot rate Arlene highly enough for anyone looking for a safe, reliable home from home environment for their dogs when going away. I have 3 sausage dogs - all very different personalities, and they love staying with Arlene, and her pooch Walt. I get messages and photos of updates and what they’ve been doing. I have used Arlene for coming up 5 years - weekends away up to 3 weeks vacation, and wouldn’t put my pups anywhere else. I feel comfortable knowing that they are well loved and can enjoy the outdoor space at their leisure, as it’s all secure and they literally have the run of Arlene’s home and garden to use as they please. Routines are followed, as are my requirements to crate overnight. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
I have boarded my dogs with Mike and Arlene for several years. My experience has always been a positive one and I have absolute confidence in Spotti Dog. My retriever is always happy to be dropped off and enjoys her holidays in Netherwitton. I know I can relax whilst away knowing she is in safe hands.
I found Arlene and Mike pre-covid just after my move up to Northumberland, and I would not send my two Norfolk terriers anywhere else. I have used their services a dozen times now for both day boarding and extended periods whilst away on holiday. Both dogs love going over to visit, mix very well with Walt their cockapoo, and always hate leaving when its time to go. If you are looking for a home-from-home dog boarding experience, somewhere safe and comfortable which will give you piece of mind, then I strongly recommend you pay them a visit.
We have boarded Kimba with Arlene and Mike for many years it is home from home Kimba loves to go she jumps out of the car and runs straight into the house . I would recommend anyone to use them for boarding there dogs while on holiday and have recommend them to many people who have also been extremely happy when leaving there dogs with Arlene and Mike
We were delighted when we found Arlene and Mike to look after our Border Terrier and provide a home environment for her to stay in. She has benefited from socialising with other dogs and loves their dog Walt.
Bad experience. Left our German Pointer and Springer for 11 days, they weren’t taken out for a walk once. German Pointer came back underweight, stressed out and depressed. I could feel her ribs so she clearly hadn’t been eating properly. When I raised my concerns with the business owner she dismissed them and reverted with unfair comments, including an allegation that my dogs are “intimidating” to other dogs about their food. This is completely normal animal behaviour to defend food, especially when they are not being fed enough! The failure to exercise the dogs properly is a dereliction of responsibility in my view especially when the boarding rates are at the higher end of the scale.
Mike was great with Izzy and she was really at home whilst we were away which allowed us to enjoy our trip without worrying about her! Mike gave us regular pupdates and was always helpful and friendly! Izzy will definitely be back to see him again soon
Barking Mad has always been fantastic with both us and our dog. Always picked up and dropped off exactly on time, and it a testament to them that he is always thrilled to go. They are super organised with the list of items to bring, and vaccination documentation. The families our dog has boarded with have always been great, and given is lovely feedback on the stay. I recommend very highly
Mabel is always well looked after on her holidays with barking mad.Claire provides a caring and professional service, adapting to the needs of individual dogs and owners. She keeps us updated so we are able to relax on our own holidays, safe in the knowledge Mabel is happy and having a good time too! Thanks as always!
Claire has been very helpful to us especially recently. We had to attend a family funeral at short notice and I contacted Claire as we needed our dog Milo to be looked after. Claire sorted it all out and as Milo's usual "host" was unavailable for the dates needed she organised another host. We were a bit unsure as he's only been with the same host family on a few occasions now. However the new hosts were great and Milo was well looked after and judging by the photos he was very happy there too...😃
The absolute best. Everything was organized in a very professional manner from the original in-take meeting, to the file notes, to booking, pick-up, follow on notes and photos taken by the host, and return home of our very happy and calm dog. We need to look no further for first class care for our dog.
Our dogs are just home from their first stay with a Barking Mad host family and I have been absolutely thrilled with the service. From first getting in touch with Barking Mad Newcastle, Carrie has been great. We had a very thorough doggy induction meeting which did a deep dive into our dog's wants and needs and they were then matched to the right host family. I received plenty of photos and video during their stay so knew they were settling in well. Carrie is professional and responsive and I feel very confident handing over the care of my dogs to Barking Mad and their carefully chosen host families while we're away. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Barking Mad Newcastle.
I have used Barking Mad Newcastle and Tyne Valley for several years. They take a weight off my mind each time I go away. I have used boarding kennels and dog-sitting apps, but those don't come close to the level of service (and comfort to my dogs) offered by Barking Mad. To have my dogs looked after safely in a home setting, following my instruction on how my dogs should be cared for, not blinking when there is a medication regime to be followed, and making allowances made for all the lovely quirks of my furry family, is reassuring when I am heading away from home myself. The hosts the dogs are matched to are not trying to make money, they just want to spend time with some dogs and give them love and care, and Carrie and her team do the organisation and make sure everyone is up to speed and that it works seamlessly - that is where the fee is spent. Carrie and team take it very seriously and their standards are high. So you can relax. And the true test of success is that my dogs love it when Barking Mad arrive to take them to their hosts!!
We have two ten year old rescue dogs that had never been left before. We were going to a family wedding on the south coast and had to find somewhere to board them. Fortunately we found Barking Mad. They are really thorough, After our initial telephone conversation Carrie came across for an hour to meet Babs and Maisie to find out all about them. As we were going to be so far away for our first trip, Carrie recommended a trial stay whilst we were still local. They were collected to be looked after by Sam who supplied photos and updates. They were delivered back very happy, so we went ahead with our trip. All was arranged beautifully and we came back to happy dogs again. Highly recommended.
Barking Mad provided an excellent service. We had a fabulous relaxing holiday abroad in the knowledge that our were safe and very happy. We were sent pictures of them meeting their host and it was very clear from the photos they settled in immediately. One of our dogs suffered a back injury the week before we went away. I thought we would have to cancel our trip but on mentioning the problem to Carrie we were reassured that this was not a problem in the least. Hugo got all the rest and special care he needed from his lovely host and when we returned from holiday and his back was so much better. Could not fault Carrie and her team.
Arlo always loves his holidays with Barking Mad. We wouldn’t use anyone else.
Excellent service! We used Barking Mad in the Tyne Valley for the first time this summer. Everything is very well organised, communication great and the drop off and pick up by Ian is excellent. When you use a dog sitter for the first time naturally you are cautious, but our dog Phoebe trots off very happily and we have peace of mind knowing that she is being well looked after. Thanks Carrie and your lovely hosts.
Can leave the family pets confidently in capable hands, knowing they will be well cared for by an experienced pet sitter
Thank you for your kind review!
