Dede stayed at my place for a few nights to take care of my pups while I was out of town. In short, I would have her back in a heartbeat! Great communication, sent me regular photos of the pups out on their daily walks and I came home to a house that was possibly cleaner than when I left. She was an absolute joy, and exactly the type of sitter I use this site for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dede for any housesitting or pet sitting opportunity and hope to have her back again someday!
It was a pleasure to pet sit for Grainne and Hans. Grainne’s connection, commitment, and understanding of animals were evident when talking to her about their pets and her work at an animal rescue centre. Their pets were adorable. Bono's baby face made you want to cuddle him all the time, and he was so well-behaved during his walks. Their four cats each had their distinct personalities. It was lovely to see them all chilling in the garden when the weather was warm. Star welcomed you every day and liked to play, while Lenin took a long time to accept you. Fluffy was aloof, but once she trusted you, it was a pleasure to hear her purring. Lewis liked to stay outside, and his distinctive heart-shaped marking on his back made it easy to recognise him when he occasionally visited for nuts and cuddles. This added to the peaceful atmosphere whilst staying at their property. Their house was a joy to stay in—beautifully designed, spacious, and comfortable. It was the perfect retreat we were looking for, not to mention the nice places around within a short driving distance and perfect spots for short or long walks. Grainne and Hans are a lovely and kind couple. They invited us for a meal upon arrival and another as a thank you when we departed, where we enjoyed a nice chat with the family. Their very detailed welcoming guide greatly facilitated our experience pet sitting, so we could just enjoy the furry friends and the five-star hotel resort that they call home 😉 All the best to the family, and as an owner of rescue pets myself, I truly appreciate the love and care they provide to their rescue pets. They are an example to follow.
Anna and Rob have a beautifully appointed home in picturesque Ashburton. Their friendly personalities made us very comfortable and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They both greeted us on arrival in Christchurch airport and kindly drove us back to the airport for our departure. They gave us a tour of the town and left us clear instructions and emergency contact numbers for the care of their home and pets. Their pets Eula and Franki were a dream to look after and both were house trained and well behaved. Eula looked forward to her daily walks around the beautiful parks in Ashburton. We would like to thank Anna and Rob for giving us the opportunity to look after their home and pets and to discover the beauty of the south island of New Zealand.
Crystal and Pepper love to be petted, and they both like to play too. Really great cats!! No litter to scoop makes caring for them an easy task, and a big beautiful home makes it a pleasant stay. Jane’s home is well lived-in— signs of kids in school (books, papers, games, etc) are all around, which gives it a homey feel (instead of a sterile hotel feel), which honestly is one of he nice things about this site. But it’s remarkably clean, considering there are teens about! The location is AMAZING for anyone who is visiting Seattle. It’s close to downtown and lots of other touristy areas, but this neighborhood feels really safe and pleasant and actually very quiet even though it’s on a busy street. They must have insulated windows because I never even heard the cars going by! Well-equipped kitchen, giant bathtub was nice to take a soak in, and Jane was an excellent communicator. I highly recommend this sit. Only down side for me was that I’m allergic to Tide, and it was being used in the house even though I had asked about that before coming over. I smelled it immediately when I walked in, and found it in the basement laundry room. I don’t think it was being used on the bed linens, but I’m sensitive enough that I had a headache the whole time I was there. For many people, this wouldn’t be an issue, so I still give it a high recommendation.
Bodie was a complete pleasure to sit. We were able to enjoy comfortable surroundings in a spectacular location. Great walks from the front door, and we got to enjoy 2 fabulous local pubs for dinner, with Bodie being the local star! Lizzie and Hugh were very welcoming and made sure we wanted for nothing. We even got fresh eggs for a breakfast from the chickens. Highly recommended sit, for a wonderfully welcoming family.
We loved our sit with the 3 cutest doggies Morgan, scout and dolly. They are so adorable and a pleasure to spend time with. Sonia and David were amazing hosts. Sonia even cooked us a delicious homemade bread and meal for our first night which was very much appreciated. They were so helpful and organised. Highly recommend this sit. 💛🧡
He was super helpful and kind, very easy sit with super cute pups. They were fun to walk and very friendly/cuddly. Would come back anytime :)

Ian you cant ever ask to much, always there and our dog buddy loves him so much!! Gets excited every time he hear his voice! Couldnt ask for a better dog walker to look after our family!! He becomes a family! Would highly recommend him to everyone!!
The best dog walker I’ve used in the Banbury area. He is a legend! So reliable and flexible, always willing to help out when needed and most importantly I have to persuade my dog to come back in to me after a walk - she just wants to stay with Ian (never happened before). Can’t recommend enough!
We are so lucky to have found Ian to be our dog walker! He’s really good with our cocker, Cass. He is reliable and flexible and varies his walks throughout the week. He always tries to help us out if we get stuck, highly recommend him!!
Ian has been walking our boy bailey since he was a puppy. He instantly formed part of the pack and it did wonders with for his socialisation, behaviour and recall. Bailey is always so excited to be picked up by Ian and loves that part of his day, being taken on a big variety of walks. I would recommend Ian to anyone and have always been happy for him to look after Bailey.
Ian is fantastic with my young dog Poppy, she’s always excited when he comes to pick her up which is lovely to see. Would really recommend This Way Pup if you’re after a reliable dog walker in Banbury.
A natural with all sorts of dogs. The hounds go to different locations depending on the state of the ground - but also for variety. Our dog wags her tail every morning to see Ian and head off with her pack for a morning trot. The price is a bargain, too.
We chose Ian because he lives nearby, allowing us to stay local, and it has proven to be one of the best decisions we've made for our dog. It has turned out really well; our young Labrador is always happy and tired after going out with Ian, so we are confident that he gets the exercise and socialization he needs. Additionally, Ian is super helpful and flexible with scheduling. Whenever we need to change plans, it's easy and quick to communicate with him.
Ian has been walking my dog for 2 years now and I've always been very pleased with his service. He's always reliable. My dog gets a decent blast in the fields and comes home tired out, happy and socialised. I would definitely recommend him and wouldn't have anybody else!
My pup has been going to Ian for walks once a week plus for 5 years now and we wouldn't trust anyone else. Ian was reccomend by a friend and he looks after our pup so well. He comes back tired and happy from his walks. He also gets socialised at the same time with the other dogs Ian walks. Ian's fees are amazing value for money considering the amount of time he takes my pup out and how worn out he comes home! Would 100% reccomend.
Ian has been walking my Shar Pei Carmen for 6 years now. He’s professional, very reliable and open to last minute changes. My Carmen loves all of Ian’s doggie clients and she adores him too. If you’re looking for a friendly, fun and genuine dog walker, who’s passionate about his job and would treat your dog with love and care then Ian is the guy for you.
We had a one to one training session with Patty to get some tips on how to help us build the confidence of our rehome Westie at our home. It was incredible to see how our little one responded to Patty almost instantly. It was a full on session packed with really useful training tips and information about dog behaviour. Patty certainly knows her stuff and is patient and persistent! We would really recommend one of these sessions to focus on specific needs. It really helped us understand our girl and know what is best so we can help her become a happy, outgoing dog.
Patty at Canine Paradise is just wonderful - she had such a great way with all the pups in our class. Our pup loved the training classes and together we learnt so much. I definitely recommend Patty and I'm hoping we can get booked onto the intermediate classes. I stumbled across Canine Paradise while searching online and I was thrilled when we managed to get a place in a class. Definitely worth the time and money and the learning you gain is so valuable and you just keep using the knowledge again and again.
When we first started with Patty at Canine Paradise we hadn't had a dog for many years and we had a rescue of a breed we were unfamiliar with. Patty was very calm, patient and supportive and gave us many ideas how to proceed with our lovely boy. Her trick of course is that she really was training us as much as him. Her love of dogs is obvious and she is very knowledgeable about many breeds and can advise how to deal with general as well as specific issues. We would highly recommend her for your puppy or older dog training.
Have been to several classes with our growing puppy, all of them brilliant for socialisation, training and reassurance about how to handle her! Patty is a fantastic trainer who dogs absolutely love (and respect) and has demonstrates & explains everything in a simple and enthusiastic way. Just as much fun for owners as for dogs! We are much more confident now having worked with Patty and seen what we're doing right & wrong.
We’ve just done the puppy class and now progressed to basic obedience class. Patty makes it such fun and the dogs love her, as well as us both learning. She also gives her time freely to help with any other problems that may arise. She has been an absolute star helping me to integrate my old Jack Russell with the pup. I had really bleak days but Patty always responded to my cries for help with practical advice and lots of encouragement for me. Very highly recommended. Thank you Patty, from Betty, Pip and Em xxx
My husband and I have now attended 3 puppy training classes with Patty and are absolutely delighted with the progress that we, and our puppy, have made. Patty explains and demonstrates each activity very well. It has made us realise how important it is to train the owners first to be able to work towards having an obedient, socially acceptable dog.
Gave up with the basic obedience classes due to last minute changes of venue, days and times. Several of them were cancelled due to weather and patty having other commitments at the time the classes were due to take place
Patty is amazing. She's incredibly knowledgeable and patient. We went to puppy classes and obedience classes and cannot recommend highly enough!
Canine paradise has been wonderful for training our slightly crazy cocker/lab cross Pippa. Patty has taken the time to help us from day 1, and has always been on call for any issues we have encountered. The result? One exceedingly well behaved 18 month old puppy whom we constantly get amazing compliments for her behaviour and obedience. Considering she was our first dog and we had no clue to start with, I consider this all down to Patty. We have gained so much confidence, that we have taken on a second puppy, a Bernese/lab cross, who of course, is going through the same Journey with us and Patty. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Patty from Canine Paradise is brilliant. The training sessions have really helped us ensure we have a well behaved sociable dog. Patty keeps the sessions both fun and interesting and we go as a whole family so the kids are learning how to handle and look after our dog too. I would highly recommend these sessions and we plan to continue with them all the way to gold standard as they are great for all of us.
Debs has been fantastic helping us with scheduled and last minute dog care. He always comes back well exercised and with pictures of his day making lots of friends. Our dog loves what we call a Debs day! Would highly recommend.
I have always felt my dog is in safe hands with Debs - he is happy to go with her and comes home exhausted at the end of the day. On top of that Debs is punctual and flexible, and tries to help whenever I’m in a pickle!
Debs&Jack have been playing a crucial part in our nervous reactive dog’s training and socialisation. Debs understands really well our doggy’s training need and gives us feedback on his behaviour. She is also very considerate and starts the walks early or late to make sure the doggies don’t get too hot or too wet depending on the weather. Can strongly recommend her services!
Debs and Jack go out of their way to ensure that your pooch is thoroughly looked after. Our spaniel has been going out on walks since he was a puppy and he always has the best of time. Debs is always so flexible and happy to accommodate any last minute requests which is so handy as our work schedules can change. Our dog used to have separation anxiety, but with the help of Debs, he comes back from his walks satisfied and content and now sleeps peacefully until we return home. Through her support, we can now leave our dog on his own- truly life changing! Debs is always conscious of each dog's wellbeing and will come out earlier if the weather is hot. We always get cute pics throughout the day too. Thank you Debs and Jack X
Debs and Jack have been such a wonderful help for Jerry, who now loves going out with her and he always looks like he's having a blast when we get photos. Debs is always on the ball with her communication and makes special arrangements when the weather is not good for the dogs, like coming earlier when it is too hot. Debs is always punctual and efficient when collecting and dropping Jerry off at home. I think this is a wonderful service and can recommend putting your trust in Jack and His Pals.
Debs has been really great with our dog Ralph. Excellent communication, punctual, and often sends photos of their walks together. Highly recommend.
We are very pleased with the care Debs provides. our puppy Koda is very happy after walks and it helps him a lot in socialization with other dogs and nature. I recommend Debss who is very knowledgeable and wonderful with her job ! Thank you :)
Debs is brilliant! My little black lab, Betty, has known her since she was only two months old and loves being with her. Her tail wags like crazy when she knows she's off to spend the day with Debs, and her doggy chums. Debs is really capable and I know how important it is to her that she keeps her clients happy - all her four-legged charges are looked after to the highest standard and she confidently looks after her pack along with her lovely dog, Jack, day after day. I know Betty is as important to Debs as she is to me. I absolutely recommend and trust her.
I knew I would really like Debs from my first email contact with her. She is a really positive person, kind, reliable and Rosie loves her. She has looked after Rosie since she was just a pup. Her initial assessment meeting was really thorough and she has provided us with regular feedback on how Rosie is doing, along with some lovely photos. Rosie loves being with Jack Jack and the other dogs, this socialisation has been really good for her. I would happily recommend Debs to anyone.
Debs is an absolute super-star and hands down the most reliable, kind, experienced dog walker we have ever encountered. She's been regularly walking our Nellie for just over a year and has on several occasions boarded her while we've been away. Nellie has never been happier and we feel complete confidence leaving her in Debs' care. What's particularly amazing about Debs is that she's so flexible and has accommodated our last-minute scheduling requests with grace. We absolutely love Debs and wouldn't know what to do without her!
Absolutely fantastic house sitting for our 3 dogs, put our minds at ease knowing they were comfortable at home and she sent pics and a small message for every visit which was incredibly reassuring! Would definitely use again and would recommend to others!
I can't praise Reiki Peace enough. Our German Shepherd absolutely loved having Reiki and as she got older it almost seemed to give her a new lease of life. She certainly had moments where she thought she was a puppy! Thank you Reiki Peace x
Very helpful, helped to keep our dog happy when we had to leave her alone for a while. Sent us lots of pictures and very accommodating.
Excellent trustworth pet sitter. Really treats pets as her own. Helps reassure owners whilst on holiday. Will definitely use in the future
Wonderful lady, great with my cat and set my mind at ease while I was away. Highly recommend!
Our dog appears to love it here. We were quite nervous about kennels at first but she now goes regularly. Much less stressful than finding a dog sitter and relying on 1 person. All the staff seem lovely as well
1st time using. When we arrived I asked to see where he was staying as was told this was fine (dog) but told that I couldn't even though I was told via email that they have a open door policy. Collected dog and he had dried dog poo all over back legs and in his bum. Think a little wipe wouldnt have gone a miss with some water and blue towel
Dogs well looked after and the staff were very kind to let me collect them early.
Denise and her team have looked after our cats and dogs for years and they are really wonderful. You can tell that they really care about the animals (my Cockapoo will often come home having been given a bath for example) and they are also very well organised.
We were visiting friends locally at short notice and our usual kennels at home was full. Happily BBKC had a place for our dog. We will certainly use again next time we visit without hesitation. The organisation is outstanding, the setting absolutely stunning, staff are wonderful and they care for your dog like their own. I always get anxious leaving him but I felt he was very safe and happy there. Thank you all - you are doing an amazing job! (Useful to note - cash is preferred! Also they have an impressive traffic light system for the single track road so you may have to wait a short while to enter)
This place came highly recommended by someone in work and I couldn't agree more. My boy was well and truly looked after and he seemed very happy when we picked him up. Other places he's been to I normally have to bath him and wash his stuff but he came back nice and clean. And he normally loose a lot of weight but he came back fine. Definitely be putting my boy here again.
Fantastic place. Our dog loves going there literally pulling one of the friendly girls in to kennels when we arrive.
I cannot sing this boarding facility praises enough! They are absolutely remarkable.They are simply angels. Some people are born to take care animals. They have gone above and beyond to make sure that my German Shepard Maximus was well taken care for a month and worked with me on any concerns I had with my pet. The owner Denise is just fabulous and outstanding. Her staff is equally amazing and so loving and kind. I would recommend this facility 1000x over! It is safe and clean and overall a beautiful boarding service. Thank you so much for all that you guys have done for my pet, we are beyond happy and ecstatic.
We will not be taking our dog there as we felt quite unwelcome and sensed that they did not want our dog to stay while we were away for the first time ever.
We have a 6 month old American bulldog cross that we were hoping to board here in October. I emailed and asked for the rates and availability, I was asked what breed he was and I replied american bulldog cross. I was told we don't board american bulldogs. I replied stating he was a cross breed. I understand that kennels have the right to say what they allow into their kennels but don't advertise all across your website that all breeds are accepted, as they aren't. Very misleading and they didn't bother to reply to my last email
A really good find. Friendly receptionists greeted me. I liked that it isn't a shared kennels too, and had a peaceful beautiful feeling to it. My cat Cobweb will be going there again . Thanks
We’ve just had a 5 star stay at Portway Cattery Meowmy bought us new carpets so she booked us in for a holiday as they can be very noisy. We had a lovely time and spent some time talking to other guests from our patio. We had a beautiful luxury suite with lovely views. Concierge Chico (fluffy ginger) and Ronnie (ginger) were very hospitable and were very good at looking after us. Emily made sure that Tiggy got all her medication for her leg. We would strongly recommend them to any of our Furfriends and to check them out for their holiday needs. We also have it on good authority that they do beautiful fur dressing (our step sister Rosie goes there for her beauty needs). Thank you to Emily and Carol (and the gang) for looking after us 🐾❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Portway Cattery Review @Winnie.Tiggy.Cats
This was our cat's first time in a cattery and he couldn't have been in better hands. The communication from start to finish was excellent, and the team was super friendly and helpful and gave us updates whilst we were away. We'd definitely recommend them and will be using them again!
Portway cattery is a great place who look after cats and rabbits. It is very clear that the staff are knowledgeable and care about animal welfare. The staff are also extremely friendly and inviting. They also offer a grooming service for cats. Would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them. Thank you Portway cattery for looking after our cat and rabbit. Stewart and Tina Hall-Smith
I have been using this cattery for 3 years now. I would not go anywhere else. My cats are happy there and can stay together. The groomer Carol is excellent. My cat, who had been silent and wanted to be alone, was in pain with tangles and is now so happy to hop up for a stroke and purrs!! Such lovely staff. Thank you.
The best family run cattery (or 5 ⭐ cat hotel as we call it! ) around. Cant recommend highly enough. Our puddy has been well looked after here for many years, whilst we holiday away. Portway Cattery give you peace of mind that your cat will be very happy staying here.
I was greeted by the owners cat when I got out of the cat. He marked me and showed me to reception! 🐈 I’m so glad I found Portway Cattery on Google. They were incredible with George. He was groomed and was handled with love and care. His coat is now unmatted, clean and I was told George enjoyed his pamper! The work they do for Cherwell cats Protection charity is outstanding too. I highly recommend a cat owners to book your cat in for grooming services. They also have a great cat hotel (Cattery) too. Thank you so much. See you soon. Fabia
I requested a full groom for a cat I am currently fostering. Carol was absolutely brilliant! She came to collect the cat as I don't have a car, and was instantly great with the cat including showing me a fool proof way of getting her into the carrier! She returned with a very happy cat who looked (and smelled!) as though she'd just been to the spa! No signs of stress upon her return, she's as happy as every and looks fantastic. I was nervous as the cat is a foster cat and never had a groom before, but I needn't have been. Such a great service, I highly recommend.
I had a great experience with Portway Cattery when I took my long haired girl in for a de-mat this week. My partner and I tried everything at home to remove her mats with grooming tools, but with no success. I have no idea how she managed it, but Carol managed to get all the trickiest mats off and for a very reasonable price. I’ve already noticed a difference in my cat. She seems happier being petted now, and I am sure this is thanks to her being far more comfortable without those horrible mats. Highly recommend.
Absolutely brilliant service. Our long haired cat who doesn’t like most people had a few knots that we couldn’t get out due to her being shy. I called the cattery and they were more than helpful and happy to take a look at our cat and see what they could do. Millie (the cat) came back looking absolutely fabulous, not a single knot on her and she smelt absolutely gorgeous and they were so good with her considering she doesn’t like most people. This is something we would definitely do again and we cannot recommend this cattery highly enough.
We have a few who watch our dog and they are all excellent.
I was nervous about leaving our 2 labradoodles as we have only ever left them with family members before but Ardley Boarding Kennels were fantastic. I called to check how they were getting on after being there for a couple of days and was completely reassured. When I collected them, I could see through the window how happy and excited they were to see the kennel staff and it was obvious how much they care for the dogs whilst they are there. We will definitely use again in the future :)
We left our Westie here for two weeks whilst we were away…. Jessica and Annabelle were excellent with her and she was perfectly happy and settled in well. We would happily leave her with them again.
Our family dogs have been very happy boarders at Ardley Kennels for over 10yrs now, we wouldn't leave them anywhere else; they love Annabelle and the staff and trot off without even a backward glance! Fantastic service all round. Thank you Ardley Kennels 😊 …
Left my 1 year old puppy labrador here recently and I am very very pleased with the whole experience. I was very anxious about using a kennels as was my first time and am now very reassured and comfortable to use this business again. Thank you to all the team there for looking so well after Ferguson 👍 …
Friendly staff and my dog came bouncing out to greet us as happy as he has ever been. We were told what he'd been up to in our absence and he had obviously been very happy and well cared for. Would highly recommend and will use again. Thank you all at Ardley Kennels :-)
Ardley kennels is the only place I would use and trust to look after my working and pet dogs! I have used Annabelle at Ardley kennels for years and have never had a problem! If anything, she has helped me no end of times as one of my working dogs tends to eat anything In Sight, and a couple of times got himself in trouble which Annabelle and her team have swiftly looked after him and got him to a vet and cared for him upon my return! As I have working dogs I need them to be housed safely and professionally and at Ardley kennels they do just that! From the warning signs to only enter if the gate is open! to all the way where there are signs telling people to keep dogs on leads and ring bell for assistance so no one or dog is ever put in danger! Annabelle will have my business for as long as she runs the kennels! Thank you Annabelle and team at Ardley Kennels!
Amazing care given to dogs, staff are wonderful and friendly, the kennels were very clean and tidy, had full confidence leaving my dogs here whilst I went away on holiday. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.
Regularly board my two dogs here. Best priced in the area and always put the dogs before anything else. 100% trust these kennels and will always recommend.
This place is great . I can leave my dogs here and know they will be well looked after . Sensible pricing as well .
in response to "owner" yes you did respond, with an automated email. twice. as for you not having electricity, thats my fault how exactly? your electricity was working fine when i rang. not the issue. you are rude, i see im not the first to mention this, and yes, i will go to another rescue centre at your suggestion.
