Pet Sitters in Chilcompton

Livy and her wonderful family have been boarding my dogs at their lovely home for at least 6 years. They are always well cared for and I can relax when I’m on holiday as my dogs are taken into their family home and treated like part of the family. I would highly recommend Scally Waggers to anyone who needs dog boarding in Somerset.

Brilliant home from home boarding. Mable loves her second family and we can relax knowing she is safe and having a good time.

Scally Waggers Dog Care Service is definitely 5 star! I contacted Livi when Dougie (our giant golden doodle) was just a puppy, due to Dougie’s size and over friendly nature we had to ensure we found the right doggy day care and boarding service who was comfortable with larger dogs. Livi instantly put my mind at ease and arranged a meet and greet. During the meet and greet Doug had a chance to play with the other dogs whilst Livi observed to make sure we were all comfortable. Dougie instantly looked relaxed, that was 6 years ago and we could not be more pleased, Doug gets so excited when he sees Livi and the whole family - they treat him as part of their family whilst he’s with them it’s a real home from home, I often get the impression when I pick him up that he doesn’t want to leave as he’s had such a lovely time. Livi is loving but firm which is exactly what Dougie needs. Dougie sadly started having the occasional seizure when he was 3yrs old, Livi has been great during these times giving so much support and advice. It certainly puts our minds at ease and means we can go on holiday without having to worry about Dougie as we know he’s having so much fun with Livi and the family, plus during Dougie’s stays we see on the Scally Waggers Facebook page pictures of the adventures they have during his walks, usually playing with Livi’s own dog Sid! I honestly cannot recommend them enough!

Amazing service ! Always goes the extra mile with walking and boarding ! I’ve never ever had to Worry one second when away on holiday or at work , in fact my dog gets luxuriously Pampered every time she goes to livs, and has her own little holiday herself ! Just the best at what she does , so trustworthy , so adaptable and reliable . I cannot recommend her enough in all aspects of canine care she offers

Livi looked after our Weimaraner brilliantly and it meant I could go away and not worry about him. He doesn’t like to be parted from me but he settled well. She was able to accommodate special requirements for walking and sleeping with no problem and I would highly recommend Scally Waggers

Livi @ Scally Waggers has provided excellent loving care for our springer who absolutely loves her time there with the family, almost home from home! Text and photo updates were so welcome and gave us complete peace of mind that all was well and our pooch was happy and very well looked after. I can highly recommend Livi.

My Dog Griffin loves Livi A LOT. I think he sometimes likes her more than, and he loves going to stay. Livi makes sure Griffin is happy, well looked after, well walked and loved. Wonderful woman and wonderful service

Whether it’s an over night stay or a whole week, Otis loves his own little holiday away from home because it’s just that a home away from home. He loves being part of the family and gets on with whichever other dogs are there. I wouldn’t let him holiday anywhere else. Super super care.

My Yorkshire Terrier has stayed with Livi a number of times. I can go away and not worry about him. Worth every penny!

My golden doodle loves coming to Scallywaggers and has for the past 3 years. It’s like ‘home from home’ Really caring, homely but also professional. Really recommend.

Clive and Kai looked after my golden doddle, Wilfred, brilliantly. They welcomed him like part of the family. Everything was relaxed, caring and professional. He had 3 walks a day!!! Wilfred didn’t want to leave! Will definitely use again!

We cannot recommend Bainesbury Dogs ( Kai & Clive) highly enough. They gave our dog the love, care and attention he is used to at home giving us peace of mind whilst on holiday. We received updates & photos regularly and we would not hesitate to use them again. 5 Stars.

Fantastic kennels with lovely staff. Poppy always seems happy to stay there and is well looked after. Thank you

Interesting place decent food and good service... Glad we popped in

Always ready to help out. Very good with peggy. This is an ace kennels

They are amazing with angel

Always pop in for breakfast on the way through

very friendly very honest very professional

Very nice

Dog loves it

Great memories

I cannot recommend this service enough! The staff are always so helpful and have been so patient with Brucie and his separation anxiety. Brucie loves going on his walks, I love the reports we get after the walk to see how he has got on.... although today there was traffic issues when I receive these pictures I can truly see how much the staff love the doggies and really enjoy their jobs! Thank you so much to Sophie & the team 💙

Fabulous grooming service. So happy to discover that HPCS offer this. Our Cavapoochon always comes out happy and looking gorgeous. Great teeth cleaning process too. Chloe is lovely. Highly recommend.

Mabel has been going out for weekly walks for over a year now. She loves getting together with other dogs and gets so excited when the van pulls onto our driveway. I highly recommend heathers pet care services and always mention them to other dog owners.

Just finished Heathers pet services puppy classes as Rosemary Lodge. We really enjoyed the sessions and my pup and I will both benefit from what we have learnt. Sophie N was fantastic. She is really engaging, knowledgeable and always ready to answer any questions separate from the lesson content. I wasn’t looking forward to being out on a cold Wednesday evening but am now sad it’s finished. Would def recommend. Will be looking to book some of Heather’s other pet services.

We did not have the best experience with Heather’s Pet Services. We genuinely appreciated how understanding and hard working the staff were, however the customer service really let us and our two cats down. I understand this is a predominantly dog-centred service, but we were assured they could look after Persian cats and their additional specific needs. We were extremely anxious about leaving our cats alone, to the point that it’s prevented us from taking trips since before the pandemic. It took a few visits for them to get used to these and I took particular care to update our information in their online portal. After each visit we could tell the staff really took on our feedback, which was amazing. However, on arriving home after the last two visits, we found one or both cats had become unwell and left unpleasant smells and messes to attend to, definitely not a nice environment to come home to after being away. After letting customer service know about this, the response was very unsympathetic and unprofessional. We were blamed for their errors and told we were at fault for making a staff member ill with the feedback we gave previously. I have never come across a business take so little responsibility for the quality of their services (at frankly extortionate prices) or the wellbeing of their staff, and I was particularly shocked by the lack of interest in the wellbeing of our cats after the final visit. Unfortunately, we would not feel safe leaving our cats under their supervision again.

About 5 years ago our cockapoo Barney began to get very agitated whilst being groomed. This got steadily worse to the point that the groomer said they would not be able to groom him without him being sedated…. We did this reluctantly, as we hated the effect the drugs had on him. I was chatting it through with the vet as this had been going on for a couple of years and I felt that it could not be good to do this as Barney was nearing 9. A number of people mentioned that Heather’s pets had a lady who was a trained dog behaviourist and wonderfully patient grooming team. I felt it was worth a go although did wonder if the saying ‘ you cannot teach an old dog new tricks’ would be validated! Sophie a trained dog behaviourist and Chloe the chief groomer have worked wonders- between them they have taken time with Barney to ensure he is comfortable with them and in their grooming room. They have cared for him and eased him in gradually to being able to be first washed and cleaned with them and now groomed without any sedation at all! It is such a relief and I am so grateful- they always reassured me too that I was not being a paranoid dog owner and that it would be worth taking this time- and it certainly has been. We are all so thankful they are fantastic!

My dog has been having regular weekly walks with the staff at heathers pet care services. Mabel loves being collected and going out with a group of dogs. The staff are dedicated animal lovers and take great care of your pets. Mabel has a brilliant bond with whichever walker she has and get super excited when she sees them walk up our path. I Highly reccomend heathers pet care services

Heather’s Pet Care Services is fantastic! I attended the puppy training classes & found them to be really informative, interactive & supportive. Sophie led the classes & found her to be really professional, helpful & so knowledgeable! I also take my dog along to their pet groomer Chloe, who has been amazing with her & always do a fantastic groom. My dog was not keen with being groomed, however in Chloe’s care, we haven’t looked back! I thoroughly recommend you use Heather’s Pet care Services for all your pet needs!

We have only positive things to say about both Sophie and Heathers Pet Care Services. We arranged some 121 sessions with Sophie for our little Cockapoo recently - and Sophie was so friendly, knowledgeable and Sophie made every session exciting. Our Cockapoo was so entertained, and we've taken all the training notes, games and general advice moving forwards and we can't wait to use the services again. Thanks again :)

We have used Heathers for a number of years now for group walking, grooming, puppy training and 121 dog training. They are all excellent and the online booking system is very helpful. Would highly recommend to any dog owners in Bath area.

Found this pets' heaven on route to Wales this summer From the moment i enquired we knew we were in a good place. We took our queens (chickens) were super happy with everything on offer. Nicky loves for animals reflect on everything at Pip's Pods. We came back in September for more boarding. Highly highly recommend

Great experience, place is very comfortable for small pets, my two boys enjoyed their time there while we were on a short brake. Highly recommended, Nicky was extremely friendly and gave us confident our bunnies were going to be looked after properly. Over and above what I expected. Will use again

Nicky is absolutely lovely and clearly adores animals. Our two guinea pigs were very well looked after and obviously enjoyed their holiday at Pip’s Pods! Highly recommended!

Smudge, our mini Rex rabbit, came home very relaxed after a week being looked after by Nicky and her daughters. He had plenty of outdoor space and his pod was cosy for him. Nicky’s set up is very secure and she was very welcoming. I would thoroughly recommend her.

I couldn’t recommend Nicky at Pip’s Pods highly enough. She was so warm and friendly via email, answering all my questions promptly and thoroughly, and setting a mad guinea pig lady’s mind at ease! She thoroughly spoilt both my boys whilst they were with her, providing the most beautiful indoor and outdoor accommodation as well as a range of herbs and veggies for them to munch on. I was concerned about them in the heat as it was pushing 30 degrees when they stayed with her, but Nicky was so reassuring, messaging me to tell me when she’d checked on the pigs and sending me pictures of them having fun! I don’t know what she did with one of my piggies but she somehow managed to change him from a grumpy guinea to a much more cheerful version when I collected him! I think he needs to stay more often! I thoroughly recommend choosing Pip’s Pods for your small animal care when you go away - it couldn’t have been better.

I was really struggling to find decent boarding for our rabbit Jarrod as most sites were either breeders who happened to have a couple of spare hutches or were boarders advertising spacious accommodation only to find that the boarding was in small hutches staked 4 high in a shed! how lucky we were to find Pips Pods run by Nicky. Nicky has a lovely country home and will only house a few animals at a time (I say animals as she boards more than just rabbits). our Jarrod is a house rabbit but appeared more than happy with his outdoor accommodation and had a large outdoor space to stretch his legs. Nicky is an obvious animal lover as you will see for your self when you visit. Jarrod was treated to fresh greens every day and Nicky even went out of her way to bake him some banana treats. When it came to collection time Jarrod he appeared very happy and relaxed, I'm sure he could talk he would have been asking to stay a little longer!!!. I've never felt comfortable booking a holiday and leaving my pets in somebody else's care, however was so impressed with Pips pods we have already booked Jarrod's boarding for next summer and will have no issues leaving him with Nicky if we ever felt like a weekend away. I cannot rate Pip's Pods highly enough, a great service, great animal care and very under priced for the service provided. I would advise booking pips pods as early as you can as quality boarding is hard to find and is likely to book up fast.

Lovely local place for my 3 hens to board, whilst we took a holiday. Very clean and tidy, hens have plenty of space to roam about and came back looking very healthy. Had the added bonus of Nicky keeping their eggs for us when we came back. Would certainly recommend as a great place to look after your pets whilst you are away.

We were very happy with our experience keeping our 5 hens here whilst our garden was being redone. Email booking was very responsive and the owner was very understanding with our needs as it was unpredictable exactly how long we would need to stay with ongoing garden works being done. Drop offs and pick ups were also very flexible. Very impressed with the space and Nicky was very friendly and knowledgeable with hens, which reassured us that they were staying in the right place. Would definitely recommend.

Nicki has taken care of our rabbits during our holidays as well as us and even better. She considered our bunnies like hers and finally they have spent as good holidays as us. We are very grateful of her work. We are not going to hesitate to let our rabbits again next time to her. Very good service.

Nicky is a thoughtful, caring lady who loves all animals furry, feathered and, I suspect, otherwise! 😃 We boarded our 6 hens and 5 quail at Pip's Pods and just through our first message contact I felt an instant peace of mind. Nicky responds quickly and with understanding, no question too daft! She has spectacular pods in a big lush green acre (correct me if it's bigger?) containing big covered avaries with wonderful Omelet and locally made quality housing, coops, hutches etc, including smaller Omelet homes for the littlies. We were very comfortable having our birds to stay at Pip's Pods and they will go there for their holiday again when we next go away. Thank you Nicky! 👌 From Beki and Graham

Thank you so much to Kirsty and the team for helping me find my dog, I was so grateful, I am really sorry you had wet socks.

A very caring and safe environment for my cat. He loves the chair and cushion provided and toys and tunnel are among those things thoughtfully placed for stimulation.

My cat, Penny, never gets stressed going to Willow tree. She comes home and settles straight back in. Gwen and the girls obviously look after all their charges with lots of care and attention

Always look after our cat beautifully. He aways come back happy. Facilities are great and everyone there are friendly and helpful. They always ask if there are any special requirements needed for your pet. Oh be prepared they check your cats vaccination records so make sure you take them and are up to date. ❤️

We booked our dog and cat with willow tree kennels last week. Felt really happy that our pets were well looked after. Gwen showed us around beforehand and was very kind and patient. They are quick at responding to emails or calls. Our dog is also booked in for August. I would definitely recommend.

Took our 2 dogs for ( a shampoo and trim) after a recommendation and we weren't disappointed

Friendly staff, really feel they have our dogs best interests at heart. We have tried other kennels previously but our dog doesn't eat, but she really gets on well here. Highly recommend x

Such a fantastic kennels and cattery. Have used them numerous time and always will. The dogs and cats are treated as if they are there own. The on site dog groomers is also fantastic. The dogs always come back so happy and relaxed with no signs of anxiety like previous kennels used. Gwen and Jess are absolutely fantastic and a real pleasure to deal with.

It was the first time we have used these kennels and we were really impressed. We definitely recommend Willow Tree and will definitely use them again

Seemed great at 1st . But didn't find them very friendly or approachable second time around . Dog bowls were returned dirty. . Shame as I was more then happy at first.

Love this place. Our cats actually walked back into the cage. Didn't want to come home. Thank you.

My 4yr Ruby was new to doggy day care & we chose Tania because of her professionalism & obvious love for the dogs in her care. Ruby absolutely LOVES it, she can't wait get in & see Tania & to play with all the other dogs. We were very lucky to find Willsbridge Walkies & look forward every week to receiving photos of their adventures. 10/10 from us 🐾

Tania has looked after my dog since a young puppy. I really feel that she loves my dog just like I do. I can't recommend her highly enough. I'm sure that in the current situation, places at doggy daycare are very sought after and anyone whose dog goes to Willsbridge Walkies is very lucky to have such a professional and caring provider.

Our dog loves to visit Tania every week, starting the day off excited and full of beans at being dropped off, and returning on an evening very happy and tired after enjoying his day with his regular crew of pals. We have always found Tania to be professional and courteous and hope to be using Willsbridge Walkies for years to come. Highly recommended to anyone looking for doggy daycare and boarding in the area.

Our dog loves Tania and has been attending doggy daycare for a couple of years now. Tania is reliable and trustworthy. We know our dog is safe in her capable hands. He always comes back tired out after a busy fun filled day! Would highly recommend Willsbridge Walkies to anyone

Being able to call on Tania whilst I am away to walk Rocky has been such a relief. She has looked after Rocky like her own dog and sent me lots of updates. I would highly recommend Willsbridge Walkies. Rocky is looking forward to her next holiday at my Dads knowing she will have fun walks with Tania 😊 …

We are first time dog owners and Skye has thrived through attending doggy day care weekly. The care and attention she gets is fantastic and I love the regular updates seeing her having fun with the other dogs. Holidays have always been important to us and was nervous leaving Skye overnight. I had no need to worry, the luxury boarding service is amazing, tailored to our needs for Skye providing us with reassurance that Skye is happy and well looked after whilst we are away. I cannot recommend Willsbridge Walkies enough for the brilliant service and care provided for the dogs.

Willsbridge Walkies has been fantastic for us in the bringing up of our pup. At first we thought the doggy day care was for us to have a day off each week. However, we have come to realise that Mabel has thrived and is so well socialised now with other dogs. She is always so excited when we pull up on the drive and is always welcomed in with such love. It is a lovely location and they have a great setup there. The regular photos sent throughout the day are brilliant and we especially like the team photo of all the dogs together that are there each day. Really can’t rate the family and business highly enough. Paul & Kate x

Willsbridge Walkies have been looking after our spaniel for nearly 2 years now. Tania and her family care for the dogs as if they were their own and our dog loves them. He is always happy when we drop him off and can’t wait to get to see the other dogs and play with all the lovely toys / do enrichment activities which Tania organises. Thank you Willsbridge Walkies

I am so glad I was recommended by my friend to use Willsbridge Walkies! My collie Pip absolutely loves it there and runs in when I drop her off! Tania is very professional and organised and sends me pics throughout the day with updates of how much fun Pip is having with her friends. It gives me huge peace of mind when I’m at work, knowing she’s being well looked after. Highly recommend WW for top doggy daycare 🐾

Tania and her family are fabulous dog sitters. They are totally trustworthy, care for the dogs like they are their own and go out of their way to help. No wonder they are always busy and well supported by their clients. They have been great during the pandemic when we have had to change dates and holidays have been cancelled - nothing is too much trouble for them. Lovely family who provide a fabulous service
