Philippa
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Fun loving, energetic, adventurous & caring couple that love all animals
Phillipa and David were wonderful, loving and caring with our 6 fur babies. They all looked happy and healthy on our return. Communication was brilliant, we felt we could message any time for an update and we were kept well informed. When we got home Phillipa had a delicious vegan stew ready for us, which we were very grateful for 🙏 Our home was kept clean and tidy and David even did some gardening, keeping our garden looking beautiful. Thank you both so much, hopefully you will be seeing you again next time.
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
Mary
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Animal loving, experienced housesitter who is calm, practical and reliable
Mary looked after Shiva and Kali for a week and was everything we hoped for; plus, the cats loved her! She was helpful before she came, communicative while we were away and left the house (and cats) spotless for our return. Our two Burmese are demanding customers and report that they would love to see Mary again. Just purrfect; thank you Mary.
Sophie
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Friendly and trustworthy gal ready to care for pets and homes!
Sophie was bloody brilliant from start to finish. Great communication. Sophie provided regular updates about our pup and was very self sufficient. Left our place in the exact same condition that we left it and we can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again Sophie
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.
Bridget 'Bee'
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Semi-retired professional Great with animals Trustworthy Respectful Non-smoker
Bridget (Bee) sat for us for three weeks this summer. This was the second time she had looked after Maggie and our house, and we have asked her back again this Christmas, which I think says it all! Bee is warm, friendly, kind and considerate. Her first priority is always to make Maggie happy and feel loved, and we have come home to a very content dog, who I think is missing Bee a lot! Bee sent us photos or videos on a daily basis while we were away, telling us what she'd been up to with Maggie. She looked after our garden beautifully - we came back to a perfect lawn and a well-watered, happy garden. It was wonderful to know that she was enjoying the house and garden while we were away, and she left everything spotless. We couldn't recommend Bee enough and fingers crossed she can sit for us again! x
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.
Sandra
Sixpenny Handley, United Kingdom
Fit, retired couple with varied pet sitting experience
Sandra & Rick are fantastic pet sitters! They looked after Archie our ginger Tom for a week and he had the best of times. Their communication before, during and after the stay is exceptional leaving us relaxed to enjoy our hols. The house was spotless on our return and we (and Archie) will definitely invite them back. Couldn’t be happier!!
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 Pet Owners
Marlynn
Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.
Branden
Prashant and India were fantastic pets sitters for us. Both were dependable and were even kind enough to allow some service people into the home to do some repairs. Our dogs were well looked after and we got daily updates on how the dogs were doing. Prashant is very knowledgeable and gave us a few strategies to combat some negative behaviors that we were seeing with the dogs. Could not recommend them more. They will be missed.
Kim
We were lucky to have Andrea back for another sit with our elderly dog and feral cat. She has been wonderful both in the past and on this last sit for a month! We trust her implicitly and are always at ease that our pets will have the most kind and careful attention. She is excellent with videos and communication and very clean and tidy. Again we feel lucky to have found her, and feel she would be a great sitter for any pets!
Robert & Rebecca
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!
Ann
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
Thanh
Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)
Lori
Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!
Julie and Mike
Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!
Sara
Lyndsey and Jordan were wonderful pet sitters and house guests. They kept us informed of how our pets were doing and went above and beyond to care for them. We felt entirely comfortable leaving our home and pets in their hands and arrived home to find everything tidy and the pets well cared for. We would absolutely have them sit again if the need arose.
Mona
David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.

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
